Better recommendation of IELTS speaking book

When editing IELTS-related articles, Bian Xiao always sees many candidates asking if there are any good IELTS speaking books to recommend, saying that they don't know how to prepare IELTS speaking, and their oral English can never be improved. In order to help you solve this problem, Bian Xiao has compiled some good IELTS speaking books on the market and provided professional comments for your reference. Candidates can also choose a suitable spoken English book according to their spoken English. Let's take a look:

Break through IELTS speaking in ten days

First of all, except the preface and appendix, this book consists of ten chapters, namely, Day 1 to Day 10. Undoubtedly, this is obviously a title party. Day8 alone has more than 180 pages, and the distribution of pages in other chapters is also seriously uneven, ranging from ten to forty pages. Maybe this book acquiesces that you can study 24 hours, otherwise you can't review at his pace at all. In terms of content distribution, Day 1 and Day2 help people to read, Day3 to Day6 respectively talk about vocabulary, sentences, paragraphs and pronunciation of IELTS, and Day7 to Day9 respectively explain PART1&; 2 & amp3. Finally, Day 10 summarizes some rare problems. The greatest advantage of this book can be seen from the content, which is really suitable for beginners. Under the condition that the examinee knows nothing about the exam, with the help of teacher Shen Xiaoying's exaggerated explanation style, after reading the first two chapters, he can easily understand the matters needing attention in the exam and answer many common questions, such as what is tested in Part 1, Part2 and Part3 respectively, what is the exam form and so on. However, in the later chapters, Mr. Shen Xiaoying's exaggerated narrative style, in my opinion, has completely become a disaster. Although there are few reference books on the market that can be sold well in normal language, deliberately disguising a certain style is also a necessary marketing tool for the author. However, when the exaggeration of marketing is inconsistent with the content of the work itself, it is hard not to make people hate this self-righteous and pretentious gesture. For example, in the vocabulary section of Day3, the author named the words with different difficulties as "those flowers", "30 frozen words for naked people in ice and snow" and "verb phrases that make the examiner's facial muscles twitch". When I was looking at the verb phrases that made the examiner's facial muscles twitch, I actually saw junior high school students' phrases such as "thinking" and "thinking out". When we see the following key chapters, we will explain part1&; 2 & amp3 o'clock, I can't watch it anymore. I think the best way to practice oral English is to find someone to practice, otherwise, I will practice oral English with a machine. That's how I prepared for the exam. The question bank on the machine is comprehensive. After reading all the questions and answers, you will naturally know which problems can be merged, and when you encounter problems that cannot be merged, you will also know which ones to close to. However, if you break through the messy test skills taught in ten days, you won't need them in the real exam. Because this book is so popular, it is likely that everyone will say the same thing during the exam, and the examiner can see that it will deduct points. Finally, summarize Shen Xiaoying's "Breaking through IELTS Speaking in Ten Days": If your own ability is at the level of 5 points, you can improve it to 6 points; If your own ability is at the level of 7 points, it can reduce you to 6 points. In short, you can choose whether to buy this book according to your own needs, whether it is literacy or grades.

Overcome IELTS speaking in 80 days

First of all, Mr. Jiang Tao still expressed his views on improving spoken English in the preface. He thinks that people with poor spoken English should practice listening first, because spoken English is a medium of communication, and understanding English spoken by others is the most basic condition. Then some students anxiously said that there were only 80 days left. I want to learn spoken English. Do you want me to listen? Then he said that basic practice is the starting point of all spoken English. Practice Part 1 in a down-to-earth manner first. If you have experience in opening a board, your confidence will be greatly increased. Therefore, the day 1 to the 20th day is the exercise of Part 1. Test a topic frequently every day, and each topic will give 8 different answers for reference. Day2 1 to Day60 is the focus of this book, and the content is the exercise of Part2. Teacher Jiang Tao thinks that this part focuses on repetition, so he will list some Chinese topics every day, let you try to translate them, and then give an English answer. The next 20 days are intensive training, and 10 questions and English answers are given for the same topic every day. Of course, it is recommended to try to answer yourself before reading the answer. Compared with Shen Xiaoying's "Ten Days Breakthrough", this book is more suitable for those candidates who have become literate, that is, serving dry goods directly, and the daily task is very clear, so I won't talk nonsense with you. Those who have a good English level may wish to try the methods emphasized in this book: paraphrasing and free translation. Many students with good English level, such as those who have passed CET-4 and CET-6, still can't speak English, but they just don't know how to accurately translate their brains full of Chinese into corresponding English. In fact, due to the different verbal logic between China and the West, Chinese can't be translated literally in many cases, so paraphrasing and free translation just let you find another way of expression, which can use synonyms or another English structure. Doing a lot of such exercises can effectively avoid the phenomenon of jamming, which is very helpful to change Chinese thinking. It should be reminded that this book is criticized for its old topics, many of which are real questions from 2003 to 2004, which are still largely inconsistent with the current IELTS question bank. However, as far as improving oral English is concerned, this is not a problem, because whether the topic you practice is about traveling or shopping, this process will improve your ability to use English, that is, the speed and accuracy of your reaction when you translate the ideas in your brain into English. So much for Jiang Tao's "Overcoming IELTS Speaking in 80 Days". My suggestion is that experts might as well give it a try.

Liu Wei's road to nine-day high marks in IELTS speaking.

First of all, as we all know, it is impossible to read it in nine days. The author himself admits that there is no doubt about the title party. Then make a summary of the contents of 9 days: literacy on the first 1 day, Part 1 on the second to third days, and part3 on the second to fourth to eighth days. On the ninth day, talk about high frequency. The main way to explain these three parts is to give questions and answers directly, and then you can recite them. The method is rarely said, and the rest is basically not said. Part II & Part III: Each topic will give some words. In my opinion, for students with good English, the author's "opposition to legislation", "comparison" and "parallel statement" mentioned above may not be useful in the real exam, just list the questions and answers and recite them directly. Look at all the questions. If you can combine them, you will know how to answer them, and your confidence will increase during the exam. From this point of view, this book of Teacher Liu Wei seems a bit old. We might as well go directly to the machine classics, which are all the latest question banks. For students with poor English foundation, a book full of questions and answers is difficult for them to read, or even understand. Of course, it is difficult for a book to give consideration to both good students and bad students. I have met many classmates who don't even understand the questions. For them, if they want to improve their spoken English, I'm afraid they should first improve their listening comprehension. To improve their listening, they must lay a good foundation first. Anyway, I personally like the writing style of this book. Not much nonsense. They are all dry goods, and they are not so popular. The chances of colliding with other candidates are also smaller. If your English level is good, you have plenty of time, and you want to teach yourself spoken English, grab this book and read it aloud. Even if the topic is old, you can open your mouth after reading it ~ Then brush your computer when you have time ~ Finally, I remind you that when choosing a teacher or training institution, what you see is that the handsome and humorous teacher in front of the stage is different from the actual teacher. The one in front of the stage may just be a marketing team, trying to get you to sign up for class. What you really care about is the teachers, price, class mode and teaching reputation of training institutions.

IELTS Speaking Domino Platinum Edition

Teacher Pai Cheng said first, why did you write this book? Because there are thousands of questions in the IELTS question bank, you can divide Part 1 into 2 1, Part2 into 5 categories and Part3 into 9 categories. According to the similarity and relevance of the topics, we can connect the questions together, just like dominoes, we can knock down one. In fact, it is the same reason that I usually ask students to read all the questions of IELTS machine classics, and then put the same answers into different questions. I have food in my hand and I don't panic. That's what I'm saying.

As far as content is concerned, there are four chapters, the first chapter is literacy, the second chapter is about 2 1 category of Part 1, the third chapter is about five categories of Part2, and the fourth chapter is about nine categories of Part3. The feeling after using it is that there are too many contents in part 1, and the number of small questions under each topic is different. For example, there are three small problems under the title, work &; There are 25 small problems under study. In Part2, the author first gives some questions and answers with Chinese explanations, and then strings the above answers to answer other questions, which explains what Domino Dafa is. Besides, the material is really complete. For example, people can entertain business people across the political system. Students who feel that the oral exam lacks speaking resources and don't know what to say can use this book as a good expanding material. Some students responded, and the answer given was too long to read in 2 minutes. In fact, you don't have to recite it all as it is, these contents are understandable and absorbed. When you use them, you can freely retrieve the length and content.

Some students said that this book is full of Pai Cheng's petty bourgeoisie life. Coffee shops say Starbucks, furniture says IKEA, restaurants say South Beauty, hotels say Sailing Hotel, advertisements say Chanel, shopping malls say Sanlitun, cities say Sanya, toys say imported transformers, childhood rooms say princess beds, singers say Wang Maolin, friends and neighbors say foreigners, and books are inserted in Oxford and Cambridge from time to time. Ha ha. In fact, this is an oral material book. I really didn't talk a lot about skills or anything. Winning by content, Mr. Pai Cheng wrote it just to look fashionable, just like if you have to endure square dancing, don't you just want music to be festive?

By the way, the biggest feature of this book is that it is equipped with audio materials recorded by IELTS examiners, and candidates can imitate them with audio. In short, this book is suitable for students whose English level is not bad. It will take some time to finish reading it. It is recommended to start reading one month in advance.

The above is a good IELTS speaking book, and I hope it will help students who want to improve their IELTS speaking. The above content can be said to be a good analysis of what kind of candidates each book is suitable for, as well as what advantages this book will have and what shortcomings need to be avoided when using it. I believe that after reading it, you will also learn some methods to choose suitable oral books. Bian Xiao still wants to remind everyone that what is right is the best. Don't blindly choose the so-called crash book. Finally, I wish every candidate an ideal result.
