六級(jí)寫(xiě)作范文及點(diǎn)評(píng)：說(shuō)一口地道的美國(guó)英語(yǔ)

　　俗話說(shuō),聲音是第二張臉。聲音優(yōu)美能給他人留下良好的印象。因此,我們平時(shí)學(xué)習(xí)語(yǔ)言時(shí)應(yīng)多注重自己的語(yǔ)音、語(yǔ)調(diào)。字正腔圓、不急不緩、自然大方才能給人留下好印象。

　　Speaking Effective American English

　　On job interviews when first conversing with an individual and when addressing small or large groups, the first few seconds are critical in setting the tone for how you’ll be perceived. If she has an annoying regional accent, uses incorrect grammar, has a limited vocabulary, and if she has an irritatingly sharp piercing voice, sounds whiny or bossy or doesn’t articulate her words clearly, it’s an immediate turn-off①. This isn’t someone who you would hire or proudly introduce to your friends and business associates. This doesn’t mean that everyone should try to sound like a professional actor or broadcaster. All of us have qualities unique to our own way of speaking, our individual voiceprint as distinctive as our fingerprints. Our voice is very personal and an important part of our identity. Some natural characteristics of our voice may be very appealing.

　　The idea is to take the voice with which you’ve been gifted and give it the very best sound that you can. With the right type of practice, by paying attention to the quality of your voice and by knowing how to properly express yourself, you’ll almost immediately improve your opportunities in job interviews, social situations, in selling, and in running a meeting or addressing groups of people.

　　Let’s say it again, it all begins with the instrument, your voice. If its sound and quality is flawed and needs improvement, that’s where you start. that’s what everyone hears whether in casual conversation or in making a major speech to a large audience. Pure vowel sounds, articulation, proper breathing, expressive speaking patterns, a pleasing vocal range, naturalness, all these will make you get twice the result with half the effort.

　　行文點(diǎn)評(píng)

　　本文結(jié)構(gòu)清晰，銜接自然。第一句話直接切入主題，引起讀者的興趣：你的聲音決定了別人對(duì)你的印象。接下來(lái)連用兩個(gè)if引導(dǎo)的從句從反面說(shuō)明聲音的重要性。進(jìn)而作者筆鋒一轉(zhuǎn)，指出我們說(shuō)話不需要像professional actor 或 broadcaster那么標(biāo)準(zhǔn)，我們的聲音是個(gè)性化的,它是我們身份的重要特征。這時(shí)，讀者可能會(huì)產(chǎn)生好奇：How to make our voice appealing?

　　針對(duì)這個(gè)問(wèn)題，作者在第二段直接提出解決辦法：要利用你聲音的天賦。第一句話為全段的主題句，接下來(lái)圍繞這個(gè)觀點(diǎn)展開(kāi)論述。最后一段作者用Let’s say it again進(jìn)一步強(qiáng)調(diào)了聲音的重要性，再次重申了自己的觀點(diǎn)，深化了文章的主題。

　　好文妙譯

　　說(shuō)一口地道的美國(guó)英語(yǔ)

　　求職面試時(shí),當(dāng)你與他人第一次交談時(shí)或在與少數(shù)或許多人談話時(shí),開(kāi)始的幾秒鐘是重要的,因?yàn)樗鼪Q定了別人對(duì)你的印象。如果她有嚴(yán)重的地方口音、語(yǔ)法錯(cuò)漏百出、詞匯量有限；如果她聲音刺耳,聽(tīng)起來(lái)像與人抱怨或發(fā)號(hào)施令或者吐字不清,就會(huì)立即引起人的反感。你不會(huì)雇用這種人或把這種人自豪地介紹給你的朋友或同事。但這并不是說(shuō)每個(gè)人說(shuō)起話來(lái)要像專業(yè)演員或播音員那樣標(biāo)準(zhǔn)。我們每個(gè)人說(shuō)話都有自己獨(dú)特的方式,我們各自的聲音就像我們的指紋一樣獨(dú)特。我們的聲音是個(gè)性化的,而且它是我們身份的重要特征。我們聲音的一些自然特質(zhì)也許非常吸引人。

　　現(xiàn)在我們要講的是利用你聲音的天賦,盡量使其悅耳動(dòng)聽(tīng)。只要經(jīng)過(guò)適當(dāng)?shù)木毩?xí),注意你的音質(zhì),了解適當(dāng)?shù)谋磉_(dá)方式,你就能在求職面試、社會(huì)交往、推銷(xiāo)、組織會(huì)議或在眾人前發(fā)言時(shí)立刻獲得更多的機(jī)遇。

　　在此要強(qiáng)調(diào)的是,一切從你的聲音這個(gè)工具開(kāi)始。如果你的聲音和音質(zhì)有缺陷,需要改進(jìn),這就是你的出發(fā)點(diǎn)。因?yàn)闊o(wú)論在閑談時(shí)或在對(duì)許多聽(tīng)眾演講時(shí),你的聲音首先為人熟知。元音字正腔圓,發(fā)音清晰,呼吸勻稱,表達(dá)方式合適,聲音悅耳,說(shuō)話自然,所有這些都會(huì)使你事半功倍。
