口语 P2:NANCY 模型
P2 = Person + 事件。准备 1 分钟,讲 2 分钟故事。模型 NANCY 为你所用(身份介绍人)。
一、结构:背景铺垫 → 主题描述 → 个人趣事 → 结尾
时间不是死要求;不用按顺序;不用都回答;讲故事。
背景铺垫(时间/地点/起因)
- 时间:It was last summer that ...
- 地点:I was lying on my sofa scrolling through TikTok. She popped up onto my screen. She was streaming(直播).
- 起因:Her oral English was really authentic. It's impossible to reach native speaking level in English as a Chinese. I wondered how she managed to do that, so I subscribed to her channel.
强调句:It was Nancy that I came across last summer. / It was on TikTok that I came across Nancy last summer.
主题描述(身份介绍人 general impression)
- 特征:ponytail 马尾 — She always wears her hair in a ponytail. She's quite cute.
- 面容:She has an oval face 鹅蛋脸 with a Roman nose.
- 性格:Despite that, she's approachable 平易近人. She's the most approachable person I've ever followed on social media.
个人趣事(personal anecdote)— R-blend
Let me tell you what I've learned from Nancy.
- Move your lips forward.
- Make a "wuuuu" sound before you speak.
- Pull your tongue backward — rolling your tongue as much as you can.
例:print — do it without a "wu", it's just not right. With a "wuuu" sound, "p(w)rint" / "group" sounds more rounded 更圆润.
结尾(feeling)
- improvement:I got great improvement in English pronunciation.
- gratitude:That makes me wanna show my gratitude by gifting her.
- future:I'll stick with Nancy in the future.
二、NANCY 模型运用于 Describe a change
题干要素:what the change was / what caused it / what you did / how you feel
主题句:I completely changed the way I pronounce English.
Transition 1(人物描述)
Let me introduce Nancy, who helped me make the change. She's got an oval face with a Roman nose. She's the most approachable person I've ever followed on social media. And she gave me a life-changing tutorial.
Transition 2(个人趣事 R-blend)
Back then, I was so desperate to improve my English pronunciation. And "R blend" got in my way. And Nancy stepped in. She suggested adding a light "wuuu" feeling first — it becomes more like p(w)rint. Every time I come across an R, I add a wuuu and try to roll my tongue at the same time. I feel proud of myself. Although it seems like a small change, it's changed the way I speak English forever.
表达技巧
- 卡住时加小词:I mean / I'd say / What I am trying to say is that.
