我暑假要去交换（交流、参加会议、作报告）了，怎么临时抱佛脚提高一下语言能力？
这就到了“输出”的时候，检验“输入”积累的时刻到了。这真真是平时不努力，考试徒伤悲。让我们来看看有没有好的补救措施。
首先说听力，这个时间仓促的话就听听BBC、CNN新闻或者TOEFL的校园对话，找找感觉。短时间内希望有突飞猛进的效果也不是特别现实。
口语则是可以准备比较多的，可以分为三个步骤来储备素材。
Step 1: 设想一下自己可能面临的场景
比如，一些可能的场景有：
初见朋友的brief talk和非正式交流
作报告（研讨、交流）后针对报告回应questions或者rebuttals
晚宴上的举杯交流
出游、出行活动间隙的交流
告别和感谢词
……
Step 2: 模拟这些场景，将自己的回答写下来
初见朋友的brief talk一般是随便聊聊，会介绍介绍自己来自的国家、学校（工作单位）、旅途、天气等等，大家可以挑选自己熟悉的话题，储存相关素材👇
I am from China, home of Panda and Kongfu.
No, not all of us could play Kongfu, especially girls like me.
I am from Tsinghua University; President Xi is our alumni.
I've followed you on twitter. You have so much wonderful experience.
How’s your trip?
A little tired cause we have taken a 16 hours’ flight here. But we are excited to meet everyone and the weather here is pleasant.
回答questions或者rebuttals👇
Thanks for your question. You have brought that there might be data err which would lead to inaccurate results. I’ve also think over it deliberately. And I believe my results are believable because…
晚宴上的交流，一般会针对当天遇见的朋友和事情，可以多储备一些评价人和事的形容词👇
I think the professor who gave lecture this morning is terrific. She’s young but has achieved so much success in her field.
The food tonight is not so good, but I like the drinks.
Did you notice our special guest? He doesn’t dress up. Is this prevalent here?
出游、出行的交流，一般以讨论街上看到的为主，不会随机应变的，准备些万能通用的👇
Do people here used to run so early in the morning?
Nice bookshops.
That's a good gesture for group photo. Shall we have one?
Let's take a photo together.
感谢、告别则更加通用了👇
Thank you so much. We have had a wonderful experience here especially the close-door seminar.
Welcome to my home! I bet you will love the food. See you!
Step 3: 反复读几遍自己的回答，记在心里。
在这里需要提醒的是，注意关键的动词和形容词，这样可以帮助实现举一反三地用。
还有几个小tips：
1）我一般每次应对需要英文的对话情境，都习惯列一个小清单。一是方便自己此次随时携带、随时查看，二是方便今后有同样的场合，翻出来温习即可，可以节省很多再准备的时间。
2）在交流的期间，我会随时根据native speaker或者交流的情况，补充和完善这个小清单。比如观察native speaker与我聊的时候说话的用词和他们自己之间说话的用词差别等等。
3）如果自己水平实在不好，记得多提问题，听不懂的时候就微笑。
4）还有必备的一句话，是请求别人说慢点儿👇
Would you please speak slowly? I couldn’t catch it.
另外，推荐有一个更好的准备方法，有个小伙伴可以和你一起模拟场景，用英文对话并且练习。
大家加油💪
