MPA复试中英语面试的多种表达

基本原则

 

1、见面/告别。

 

见面问候语：Good morning / afternoon, dear professors. I am ZhangQing. (Nice to meet you。)。

 

告别用语：Thanks for your time. / Thank you for giving such a chance. I hope to see you again and soon./Thank you, goodbye./Thank you for your interview goodbye.

 

2、意外情况。

 

☆没听清，你应该怎样要求老师再说一遍(Pardon?/ Sorry, I can't follow you. / Sorry, I lost you. Can you repeat that question again?);

 

☆需要时间思考、整理思路的时候，不要出现沉默，可以用一些hmm, err, well等语气词;

 

☆不会回答某些问题时，千万不要不懂装懂，可以明确地告诉老师你不知道(Sorry, but I have no idea about it。)。

 

3、在使用连词时，不要千篇一律的用and和but，可以尝试用besides, in addition, moreover, although, yet, nevertheless, nonetheness,otherwise, instead, thus, in this way, even so, after all等等。

 

4、回答完毕，用"that's all for this question"or "that's my opinion",再加上句"thanks";

 

5、回答考官问题，千万不要只回答"YES"或"NO"，而是要加上你的reason或者是example.也就是发散思维，不能几秒钟就回答完了。

 

6、用一些冗词。如Well,you know, kind of, sort of,I mean,maybe,like,I guess,really，等等。

 

7、英语面试一般包含2-3个英语问题，在回答时其实基本上是语无伦次。但是每组的老师问题会有重复现象，所以排在后面的同学可以询问前面刚结束的同学有关问题.

 

具体问题

 

下面介绍两大方面的问题。

 

1、日常话题。

 

包括许许多多的日常话题与问题，如自我介绍(请自行准备并背诵)、关于自己的话题(请一定要真实)、关于事物(事情)的看法、当前新闻热点、对专业的看法等等。我的建议是尽量圈题并一题一题准备，一则心中有粮心不慌，二则英语面试是共通的，就算没有圈到，准备的问题总会在其它的题目中套用。

 

例子(不具备普适性、严谨性)

 

1、Can you tell me something about your hometown?

 

2、Could you tell something about your family?
