Choose a focus for the practice
- Fluency 流利度 concerns connected, manageable speech; accuracy 准确性 concerns correct language forms. A two-minute connected-speech drill mainly focuses on fluency, not guaranteed equal improvement in both.
- Keep speaking during that attempt and note selected errors for later review. A separate focused review can practise a form; the two skills are related, not permanently separate abilities.
为练习选定侧重点
- 流利度关乎连贯且易于掌控的表达；准确性关乎语言形式的正确性。两分钟的连贯表达训练主要侧重于流利度，而非保证两者同步提升。
- 在该次尝试中保持讲话，并记录选定的错误供后续复习。单独的专项复习可练习特定形式；这两项技能相互关联，并非永久割裂的能力。
A drill mainly asks you to maintain connected speech for two minutes, with form errors reviewed afterwards. Which skill is its main focus? · 某项训练主要要求你在两分钟内保持连贯语流，之后再审查形式错误。该项训练的主要侧重点是哪项技能？
The main focus is fluency. A later focused review can work on accuracy; the skills are related, and this activity does not promise equal gains in both. · 主要侧重是流利度。后续可针对准确性进行专项复习；这两项技能相互关联，但此活动并不能保证两者同步提升。
Check word stress with the word’s use
- Word stress 重音 makes one syllable more prominent. In “a REcord” the noun has first-syllable stress; in “Please reCORD the meeting” the verb has second-syllable stress.
- Use the sentence and a reliable pronunciation entry together. This word’s pattern is not a rule that every English noun and verb changes stress in the same way.
根据词语用法检查重音
- 重音使某个音节更为突出。在“a REcord”（名词）中重音在第一音节；在“Please reCORD the meeting”（动词）中重音在第二音节。
- 结合语境和可靠的发音词条共同使用。这种构词规律并非适用于所有英语名词和动词的通用规则。
In “Please reCORD the meeting”, which syllable is stressed and how is record used? · 在“Please reCORD the meeting”中，哪个音节重读？此处 record 用作什么词性？
The second syllable is stressed in this verb use. The noun “a REcord” has first-syllable stress. Check this word’s sentence use; it is not a universal pattern for every noun and verb. · 作为动词使用时，重读第二音节。名词“a REcord”重读第一音节。需结合具体句子判断用法；并非所有名词和动词都遵循此规律。
Hear intonation in actual speech
- Intonation is the voice’s pitch pattern. Rising pitch is common in yes-no questions, but question form, context and the speaker’s meaning work together; every question need not use the same pattern.
- Compare spoken examples and ask what the listener understood. A typed question shows wording, but cannot supply a pronunciation or pitch score.
在实际 speech 中体会语调
- 语调是声音的音高模式。是非问句中常用升调，但问句形式、语境和说话者的意图共同起作用；并非所有问句都使用相同模式。
- 比较口语范例并询问听众的理解情况。打印出的问句展示了措辞，但无法提供发音或音高分值。
Repair an error without claiming extra marks
- “He go—he goes to the lab on Tuesdays” contains a brief repair of a regular-action verb. A correction can clarify the message; it does not automatically beat an already accurate sentence.
- Avoid restarting the whole talk for every small error. Review actual listener understanding and repeated difficulties, rather than inferring a score from the written correction alone.
修正错误但不妄求额外分数
- “He go—he goes to the lab on Tuesdays”包含了对常规动作动词的短暂自我修正。更正可以澄清信息，但并不自动优于原本准确的句子。
- 避免因微小错误而重启整段演讲。应审视实际听众的理解情况和反复出现的困难，而非仅凭书面更正推断得分。
Every brief self-correction makes a spoken message less understandable. · 每一次简短的自我纠正都会降低口语表达的清晰度。
A brief repair can clarify a form or meaning. Repeated lengthy interruptions can affect flow, but neither an automatic penalty nor a guaranteed score increase follows from every correction. · 简短的修正有助于阐明形式或语义。反复出现冗长的中断会影响流畅度，但并非每次纠正都会自动扣分或加分。
Give others a useful turn
- Turn-taking 话轮转换 includes inviting a view, responding to a reason and checking agreement. “Mei, what concerns you about the room?” asks for a contribution rather than just saying a name.
- Choose a pace the listener can follow and leave room for a response. Extreme slowness or a fixed turn every minute is not a universal target.

Which moves can support useful participation in a group discussion? Choose all that apply. · 以下哪些行为有助于在小组讨论中进行有效参与？请选择所有适用项。
Invite a relevant view, disagree with a reason and respond to another speaker’s point. A long uninterrupted turn alone does not establish useful interaction or an official mark. · 邀请相关观点，有理有据地提出异议，并对另一位发言者的要点做出回应。长时间 uninterrupted 的独白本身并不能建立有效的互动或获得高分。
Write one sentence disagreeing politely with a classmate who said online classes are always better. · 有同学说线上课总是更好。写一句礼貌反对的话。
Example: “I see your point, but online lessons can make some practical group tasks harder.” Give a relevant reason and avoid replacing one universal claim with another. · 示例：“我明白你的意思，但在线课程可能会让某些实践性小组任务变得更困难。”给出相关理由，避免用一个普遍断言替换另一个。
Use focused practice and a listener check. A written correction cannot supply a pronunciation score or prove that the spoken message was clear.
使用专注练习和听者核对。书面修改无法提供发音分数，也无法证明口语信息清晰明了。
Draft: “He go to lab two on Tuesdays.” Repair: “He goes to lab two on Tuesdays.” Then ask the listener to restate the lab and day after actual speech; the written repair alone does not test pronunciation.
草稿：“He go to lab two on Tuesdays.” 修正：“He goes to lab two on Tuesdays.” 随后要求听者在实际讲话后复述实验室名称和日期；仅凭书面修改变量本身并不能测试发音。
