其实看电影学习的方法很好,但不用一味的纠正自己的发音为英式发音,只要说的流利,吐字清晰,美式发音也会让你很受考官青睐~下面举几个电影学习的例子~
《绝望主妇》
绝望主妇系列可以说是王牌素材之一。其中的地道口语表达,以及每集结尾的英文总结,简直就是使用范本有么有!
全剧的剧情基本是通过对话来开展的,例如:
So you think Bree punched Andrew in the face? Cause I don't. I don't either, but on the other hand, she spanked my kids, she lied about her drinking, and I once saw her slap her mother-in-law.
在这段对话中,Cause I don’t.和but on the other hand,都是非常地道的英文表达。
雅思运用
在雅思口语考试中,on the other hand 常常被用来表示转折,例如在表达虽然工作很忙,但你觉得这种忙可以帮助你以后发展的更好,那么你就可以说:
I believe you don't like working late at night , cause I don't either. But on the other hand , the hardworking we put through will finally turned into a better career development in the future.
i trust her completely. She's a wonderful friend and a fantastic mother.
She puts the rest of us to shame.
在这段表达中,She puts the rest of us to shame,表示的是【我们都为赶不上她而感到羞愧】,这句表达简单简洁却又言之有理!
另有一句在询问时候产生的台词:
Isn't it true that while your children were in Bree'scare that she passed out drunk and allowed them towander off to a downtown business district?
问Bree在照看你孩子的时候,是否喝醉到不省人事,让孩子们走迷了路,最后走到城市商业区去了?
绝望的主妇每一集末尾的表述同样非常地道,在此只摘录一段供各位烤鸭好好品味~
Now and then we all need a little help, so we ask for small favors. But it's always best to be wary of those eager to come to our rescue. Because even the smallest of favors carries a price tag. Yes, everyone has an agenda, no matter what they may tell us...and in those rare instances where there is no ulterior motive; we're so taking aback that we may fail to recognize the truth - that a loving friend has just done us an enormous favor.
偶尔我们总会需要帮助,所以我们请别人帮点小忙。不过对那些急切想拯救我们的人最好要带着一颗机警 的心。因为哪怕是最小的恩惠都是有价格的。是的,每个人心里都有一本帐, 不管他们告诉我们什么。别有用心的人太多了,像好朋友帮了大忙这样的情况真是少之又少。我们过分的警觉导致我们失去了对真相的判断。
《阿甘正传》
阿甘正传中除了那个著名的巧克力理论,还有。。鞋子论
Those must be comfortable shoes. I bet you could walk all day in shoes like that and not feel a thing. Mama always said there’s an awful lot, you can tell about a person by their shoes.
那一定是一双非常舒服的鞋,我敢打赌你穿着走一天也没有感觉。妈妈常说从鞋子看人,可以看出很多事。
雅思运用
There’s an awful lot, not feel a thing这些用法都可以在雅思考试中进行运用,例如在聊到friends话题的时候,你就可以说there's an awful lot that you can tell about a person by their clothes, my friend he / she is ……
可以借用这样的句型来描述自己的友人,同时配上I can still remember when we first met in ……这样的一个时间,背景的简介,将人物塑造的更加丰满,让语句过渡更自然~
《美丽心灵》
这是一部讲述一位患有精神分裂症但却在博弈论和微分几何学领域潜心研究,最终获得诺贝尔经济学奖的数学家约翰·福布斯·纳什故事的影片我们现在就来看看结处,这位学者在诺贝尔颁奖典礼上的发言:
And I have made the most important discovery of my career. The most important discovery of my life. It is only in the mysterious equations of love that any logical reasons can be found. I'm only here tonight because of you. You are the reason I am. You are all my reasons. Thank you.
在事业上我有了最重大的突破,在生命中 我也找到了最重要的人,只有在这神秘的爱情方程式中,才能找到逻辑或原由来。今晚我能站在这里 全是你的功劳。你是我成功的因素,也是唯一的因素。谢谢你。

雅思运用
先别急着被感动,来看一个句型:It’s only……that ……只有……才……这个句型在你们的写作中一定用得到!
例如要表达只有爱护环境我们的社会才能更加好的发展,你可以说It's only when the envoirment be well protected that our sociaty ……
但是在使用时还要注意从句之间的时态以及动词形式,避免出现低级错误才行哦~
看剧虽好,学习才最重要,可千万不要忘记啦!
