最近很多小伙伴在咨询想要各种备考技巧,课窝网也在全力搜索各种“大法”,囤了一堆干货,希望能帮到大家。在口语中,很多考试都会犯词汇方面的错误:表达不符合native speakers的使用习惯,或者一些所谓的“高级词汇”用在错的语境中。今天小编为大家盘点那些一说就错的雅思口语常用词!

1.live / stay
考生们要注意区别两者用法:
live:长期居住,如I live in an apartment./I live in Chengdu.
stay:短暂逗留,一般用于旅游、出差、拜访朋友等场合。如My mother will come to stay with me for a few days. /I stayed at my friend's house last night.
2.midnight
要注意没有in the midnight这个说法。
Midnight指一个很具体的时间--晚上12点钟。只有在说刚好在半夜12点钟发生/开始/结束的事情时才用at/from/until midnight.
the middle of the night表示一个时段,we can use 'in the middle of the night' / 'very late at night'来谈论从11pm—5am发生的事情。
很多考生在描述大半夜发生的事情时常常用混:
X He often watches TV shows until midnight.
√ He often watches TV shows until very late at night.
X I'm always disturbed by my neighbors in the midnight.
√ I'm always disturbed by my neighbors in the middle of the night.
3.touch
一般用来谈论有形的具体的实物,如:"please don't touch the painting"(请勿触摸)
或表示被感动、被触动,如:I was touched bythe movie.
中国考生常常按它的中文意思来错用这个词,如:touch other cultures(正确用法为get to knowother cultures/learn aboutother cultures)/touch new opportunities(正确用法为takenew opportunities/findnew opportunities)/touch with friends on Wechat(正确用法为keep in touchwith friends on Wechat)
4.sports/exercise
Sports是雅思口语的基础高频话题,因此考生们要注意这两个词的区别
sports一般是指requiring physical exertion and competition有比赛双方、固定规则的体育运动,不是所有运动都是sports;
exercise指一些锻炼活动,比如瑜伽、健美、散步、跳舞等。
5.cultivate
一般指种植栽培植物、蔬菜和水果/培养陶冶某种意识等 ,如cultivate(=to grow)plants/vegetables/fruit
cultivate a sense of responsibility/belonging/ awareness
常见的错误表达如:cultivate children("培养孩子"的正确用法为educate children/ teach children things/ raise children)/ cultivate pets(正确用法为breed animals/ raise/ look after/ take care of pets)
6. travel
大多数时候用作动词;当谈到兴趣时,你可以用它的名词形式:Travel is an interesting hobby.
常见的错误表达如:have a travel/ go on a travel
另外,英语中有一些很常用的表示旅行的名词,如vacation, holiday, trip,可以进行同义替换。
如:I will go on holiday/vacation to Thailand next year./We’re thinking of taking a trip to the mountains.
7. send
这个词不表示“送某人到某个地方”,而是指“派某人去”,如:I sent my boss to the airport./My boss sent me to Shanghai.
陪某人、送某人去someplace正确用法是:accompany/to take/to bring someone
如:I take my kids to school every morning./ I will bring my girlfriend to her apartment. /I accompanied my boss to the airport.
8. accompany
陪某人、和某人一起的常见的错误表达如:accompany with someone。常见错误: We need to spend more time accompanying with our parents./My friend accompanied with me to the hospital.
正确的用法是:accompany someone(如I accompanied my girlfriend to the shopping mall.),但在日常口语中,一般说go with/come with someone
