1
Maybe you have studied English for years, but then one day you have to speak about a difficult topic,
2
something you know very little about.
3
So what do you think of historical novels?
4
You freeze.
5
You hesitate.
6
You go blank.
7
The thing is, you don't need to study more.
8
You need better strategies.
9
Right now, I'm going to give you two insanely useful strategies to help you talk fluently about any topic.
10
Hello, it's Keith from the Keith Speaking Academy, here to help you become a more confident speaker of English.
11
Have you ever been to a party or a conference
12
or an event where there's a conversation about a topic you know nothing about
13
and then people start asking you questions like this?
14
What do you think of the new Prime Minister?
15
Or you've been in the IELTS speaking test where the examiner asks you a topic you know very little about like this?
16
I'd like you to describe a biography you once read.
17
The thing is, in these situations, you need to improvise.
18
To speak off the cuff, nice expression, speak off the cuff, is to improvise.
19
There's no plan, just impromptu speaking.
20
Now, if you don't know anything about the topic, well, you're probably going to freeze
21
while you think about it and then you lose the person's attention
22
or you start to ramble and talk about nonsense and lose the person's attention.
23
Particularly frustrating in an English exam like the IELTS speaking exam because it just lowers your score.
24
So let me share with you a simple solution.
25
Two frameworks you can use for any topic, even if you know very little about it.
26
And at the end, I'll give you a research-backed tip to help you implement all of these.
27
Ready?
28
Let's do it.
29
Oh, and remember, there's a worksheet PDF you can get with lots more examples, so you really understand how these frameworks work.
30
And you can start practicing yourself with with the examples.
31
Without any further ado, let's get into it.
32
Okay, number one, the one, two, me framework.
33
Now, frameworks are great because without a framework, you don't know where to go and you freeze.
34
Frameworks give you simple steps to follow, something to hold onto, which helps you to start speaking.
35
So let me show you, I'll explain this framework.
36
I'll give you some of the English phrases you need to use it.
37
And let me then show you specific examples so you fully understand, okay.
38
Later, you can download the PDF and just practice this.
39
So the one to me framework, it's all about me.
40
One is you say one thing about it.
41
Two is you then give two opinions about it.
42
And then me, not three, me, is you say, me personally, what I think.
43
Okay, so let me give you some English phrases.
44
I call them continuity phrases.
45
What a great word, continuity.
46
You know the verb to continue.
47
So continuity is that state of continuing, right?
48
You want continuity in a story with the characters.
49
Continuity in your speech, so you can keep speaking at a high level.
50
Continuity phrases.
51
For the one thing, you can say, the one thing I know about this is, okay, for the two opinions,
52
you can say, there are two ways to look at this.
53
On the one hand, on the other hand, or there are two common opinions about this
54
and then me personally you can say me personally I think
55
okay let's look at a specific example for you what do
56
you think of the new prime minister well the one thing I know about our new prime minister is
57
that he has only been in office a few weeks.
58
There are two ways to look at our Prime Minister.
59
On the one hand, some people love him, but then lots of people hate him.
60
Me personally, I think it's too early to know if he's going to be effective or not.
61
Let's sit and wait.
62
Okay, so this framework has helped me get out some key ideas,
63
although I know nothing, very little about the new Prime Minister.
64
Let's look at an example from an IELTS speaking test.
65
So what do you think of historical novels?
66
Well, the one thing I know about historical novels is they seem to be very popular.
67
I see them a lot in the bookshops.
68
I think there are two ways to look at historical novels.
69
I guess on the one hand
70
if you're doing research into history they can be very useful
71
and on the other hand they can be an enjoyable read if you like history.
72
Me personally I'm not a big fan of history or historical novels.
73
I don't think I've ever read one.
74
Right, can you see how the framework is helping us to start talking and continue talking with these continuity phrases?
75
Let's move on to framework number two.
76
Okay, number two, the TKI framework.
77
Now, the secret about this framework, I guess all frameworks, is that it's a change of focus.
78
Instead of focusing on, I don't know anything about this, you switch your focus to, well, what do I know?
79
Even if it's just a little, you focus on what you know.
80
So again, let me show you this framework, what it means, some continuity phrases in English, and then a clear example to help you, okay?
81
So this is T-K-I-T is the truth.
82
you tell the truth that you know very little about this.
83
K is what I know.
84
So say something you already know about it, even if it's a little bit.
85
And number three is imagine what I imagine, right?
86
I've no experience of this, but if I had, or if I could, I would, and just imagine and make something up but
87
that the truth what you know and imagining beautiful framework to start speaking
88
some continuity phrases for you for the truth to be honest to be completely up front
89
i don't know much about this but okay so you kind of say on to be honest i don't know
90
anything about this but what I know number two one thing I do know is
91
one thing I can say is and then you say the little bit that you know number three imagine
92
if I was going to do this I would if I had to give my opinion I would say okay
93
Okay, specific example to make this clear.
94
Let's take this very difficult exam question.
95
I'd like you to describe a biography you once read.
96
So instead of going, you could say, to be honest, I have never read a biography.
97
One thing I do know is that a lot of famous people,
98
like politicians write biographies.
99
And I think they're popular because people want to learn from famous people.
100
If I was going to read a biography, I would probably read the biography by my favourite singer, Taylor Swift.
101
Okay, so we've got an answer.
102
You could carry on speaking.
103
Now you've had time to think, but this framework has helped you start speaking and expressing,
104
changing your focus from I know nothing to, well, what do I know?
105
I know something and building on that.
106
Let's move on.
107
Right, here's my tip to help you practice this.
108
And you can do this with any or either of the frameworks.
109
Try, repeat and improve.
110
The big mistake many students write preparing exams is that they write out the answer.
111
As soon as you write the answer, it is fixed.
112
It's permanent on paper or on screen and it's hard to change.
113
And so you start repeating and memorising the same answer.
114
Stop writing, start recording.
115
Record your answer because the voice disappears and then you're free to change and improve it.
116
So take the framework, take a question, take one of the frameworks, try it, record it, repeat your answer but improve it.
117
Don't repeat the same answer, improve it and improve it as you go along.
118
And one of the reasons this works is because when you repeat the second time, you don't need to think about the idea because you've done
119
that you can focus on the language on the english uh-huh right
120
and then improve it try repeat and improve
121
and that's going to build up your flexibility
122
and your confidence to use these frameworks um another tip i would say is also focus on the transition
123
so there are three steps
124
but you don't want the listener to think you're following steps you want to sound like a smooth flow.
125
So think about the transition, right?
126
Like, and, but, maybe, well,
127
and so, right, just connecting your ideas so it sounds smooth.
128
Does that make sense?
129
Excellent.
130
So there you have it, two frameworks to help you handle difficult topics and talk fluently on topics you don't know, okay?
131
You've got the 1-2-Me framework and the T-K-I framework.
132
Fix these in your head.
133
Start using them.
134
Download the PDF worksheet and you can start practicing these.
135
I focused on IELTS topics and questions, but you may get these in conversations in everyday life and at parties too, believe it or not.
136
okay download the pdf start practicing and start talking fluently about any topic at all
137
that's it for today thank you so much um for watching
138
and i look forward to seeing you maybe in the next video take care my friend bye
139
Thank you.

推薦影片

為何這個影片是絕佳的口語練習素材?

對於渴望提升口語流暢度的學習者,尤其是備考雅思口語練習的同學,這個影片提供了“實戰級”解決方案。它不僅點出了“面對陌生話題卡殼”的普遍痛點,還給出了可直接套用的框架,避免了“只學理論不接地氣”的問題。影片中提到的“即興表達”(speak off the cuff)場景,與雅思口語考試的臨場發揮要求高度契合,能幫助學習者在高壓環境下保持表達連續性,這正是口語高分的關鍵。

拆解自然表達的秘訣

影片中的幾句表達值得細品,它們為何聽起來自然?首先,“The thing is, you don't need to study more. You need better strategies.” 用“The thing is”弱化了說教感,讓觀點更口語化;其次,“Frameworks give you simple steps to follow, something to hold onto” 中的“something to hold onto”形象地傳達了“有抓手”的感覺,比生硬的“提供方法”更生動;再者,“Continuity phrases”一詞精準概括了“保持表達連貫的短語”,既專業又易懂。這些表達沒有複雜句式,卻能清晰傳遞資訊,非常適合模仿。

簡單高效的練習流程:重複+錄音

想要學以致用,不妨試試“影子跟讀法”(shadowspeak)。第一步,播放影片片段(建議10-15秒),專注聽發音和語調,尤其注意“continuity phrases”的節奏;第二步,暫停後立即跟讀,模仿語氣和停頓,這能有效提高英語發音;第三步,用手機錄音,對比自己與原音的差異,重點關注“是否卡殼”“連續性短語是否自然”。每天練習3組,每組10分鐘,堅持一週就能感受到表達流暢度的提升。若想找更多素材,可搜尋“shadowing site”獲取適合的對話文本,結合影片中的“one, two, me”框架進行實戰演練,效果更佳。

影片中的語法

說話人最常用的結構,並附上影片中的原話:

結構影片中的用法
現在完成時 have/has + 過去分詞 — 過去發生但與現在仍有關聯的事have studied · Have you ever been · you've been
動詞 + -ing enjoy、keep、stop… + -ing — 後接 -ing 形式的動詞start asking · start practicing · start speaking
義務:must / have to / need to 表示某事是必要的have to speak · need to study · need to improvise
“going to” 表將來 be going to + 動詞 — 計劃或明顯即將發生的事I'm going to give · you're probably going to freeze · he's going to be

什麼是跟讀法?

跟讀法 (Shadowing) 是一種有科學依據的語言學習技巧,最初開發用於專業口譯員的培訓,並由多語言者Alexander Arguelles博士普及。這個方法簡單而強大:您在聽英語母語原聲的同時立即大聲重複——就像是一個延遲1-2秒緊跟說話者的影子。與被動聽力或語法練習不同,跟讀法強迫您的大腦和口腔肌肉同時處理並模模擬實的講話模式。研究表明它能顯著提高發音準確性,語調,節奏,連讀,聽力理解和口語流利度——使其成為雅思口語備考和真實英語交流最有效的方法之一。
