雅思口語part2解答思路之的4種描述方法

推薦人: 來源: 閱讀: 2.8W 次

雅思口語共分爲3個部分,其中part2和part3是比較難的部分。因爲part3會在part2的基礎上進行延展性的提問,因此,part2的回答其實是很重要的。那麼,對於有難度的part2,我們應該採用什麼思路呢,一起來看看下文。

雅思口語part2解答思路之的4種描述方法

雅思口語解答思路之part2的4種描述方法

在教學的過程中,當問到學生雅思口語三個部分的考試哪個部分最難以對付時,大多數情況下學生會認爲Part 2是最令人頭痛的部分。現在Part 2 的話題越來越細化、刁鑽,雖然有1分鐘的準備時間,但在緊張的考試環境下,大部分學生都稱“腦子是空白的”,以導致不充分的準備讓1-2分鐘的描述變得非常的慘白,無奈收尾,給考官的感覺始終印象不深刻,無法達到通過細緻的描述想親自嘗試的意願。

通過分析學生Part 2的回答範例,發現不少同學要麼僅將話題卡中給的問題提示作以簡單回答,要麼使用較爲明顯的模板回答方式---也就是我們常說的無關緊要的話,來填塞內容上的空白。如 ”If I really have to choose a place to describe, I’d like to tell you that …. is such the place。” 這也是中國學生雅思口語在40個國家和地區墊底的原因之一。在這篇文章中,本文將總結出四種Part 2描述題的拓展策略。

策略一:WH細節描述法

當考生在面對話題無從下手時,可以利用 ”WH Questions”來引導思路的拓展,包括 “what, when, where, who(whom), why, how (how exactly, how often, how long, how much, how many)”。

例如,Describe a restaurant or cafe you like. 首先須明確what(the Bookworm),when(some five years ago), where (down the south of Chengdu),who(foreigners for most of time);其次是整個描述的重點why(comfortable, pleasant, intimate ),how exactly (detailed description of being comfortable, pleasant, and intimate),how often(once a month…),how much(30-40 yuan on average per person),how many(3 in Whole China)。

但是,在此提醒考生,在回答中,不可機械地按照每一個WH來作答,否則描述同樣會非常死板乏味,即需要靈活自然過渡每一個WH。

Sample answer:The Bookworm is my favorite cafe in this city, which is about 15 minutes drive from the Tianfu Square down the south, and unlike other fancy cafes in the downtown, it sits in a quiet surrounding. The Bookworm was born 5 years ago with the help of a journalist, who soon became the business partner and co-owner of Chengdu Bookworm. During these years, it’s been popular and welcomed by almost every foreigner in Chengdu. I guess it’s probably because the cafe is really the place that can make them feel at home, ranging from the food, coffee, inside decoration, and those books written and published from their country。

The Bookworm creates a warm and intimate atmosphere, offering its customers home style food and drink. When you get annoyed from a trouble in study or at work, having a rest at Bookworm will be the very pleasant thing to chill out. The greatest part is the live music every Friday night at which you can enjoy the best jazz and blues. There are three Bookworms in China, Beijing has the first, and Chengdu and Suzhou follow the step, therefore if you‘re taking a trip to Beijing or Suzhou, you can still have the opportunity to enjoy the nice little cafe. I like the cafe, for it’s the place where I can relax, eat, drink, read and enjoy music。

策略二:舉例支撐法

在Part 2話題描述中,如果僅有描述,仍會讓整個陳述略顯有些平淡,建議考生在描述的同時加上相應的例子,這樣可以大大增加描述內容的豐富性和生動性。但是, 在Part 2裏例子,並不一定要非常正式的舉例,如“For example”;口語化的一些表達方式會更自然一些,如“such as,like”。比如,”Describe a special shop”,除了描述這個shop裏有一些special goods外,若再具體舉例說明有哪些特殊商品可以更能增強生動性。In the shop, you can always find some special and interesting stuff, such as hand-made floating lantern, photo books, tiny china pot, and Nepali jewelries and things like that。

策略三:數據支撐法

Part 2話題屬於細節描述題,在適當的時候如果能夠使用數據來進一步支撐描述,可以增強話題描述的真實性和說服力。但是,建議考生在使用數據的時候不要太過誇張數字,而且頻率不應過多,使用一次數據就可以了。另外,與雅思寫作有別的是,在寫作中引用數據時最好有個出處或來源,但在回答口語Part 2問題時,這個出處可以省略,否則會導致回答內容是背誦的嫌疑,降低真實性,這就與我們的初衷背道相馳了。

比如“Describe a concert hall”,我們可以通過數據的支撐來這樣描述“The Civil Concert Hall holds about 50 to 60 shows on an average each year, receiving almost 30,000 audiences, and part of them come to this hall simply because of its comfortable seats and great sound and lighting effects. ”有了數據的支撐,可以使我們對音樂廳的規模和條件有個更直觀的瞭解,而不是簡單地描述“the concert hall is very popular and well-equipped。”

策略四:比較對照法

1-2分鐘的描述中,除了單方面地進行描述外,可以通過描述同類事物進行比較的方式來使內容更加全面細緻。但是,這個部分畢竟是口語考試,所以選用的比較類的詞語應爲口語化的連接詞,“unlike,similar,like,be different from”等。

例如“Describe a magazine”,我們這樣來描述:The magazine I’ve been reading recently is O2 (Oxygen Magazine), which mainly covers good books, movies, music, and life design as well as eco protection are the key topics throughout the whole magazine. Unlike the normal magazines, you cannot find any company’s advertisement on it. Another thing makes it different from the ordinary ones is that it uses recycled paper, and that’s what it’s aimed since it was born. 通過對比的方式,可以令考官加深對描述的印象,也豐富了枯燥話題的陳述內容。

  雅思口語考試形式是什麼樣的

雅思口語考試形式依次分三部分。第一部分:一般問答;第二部分:主題卡片陳述;第三部分:深入討論。每部分考試時間爲4-5分鐘,三個部分總共10-15分鐘。

第一部分:一般問答

當考生進入考場(有兩種:小教室和小辦公室),再簡單的問候之後這一部分便開始了。通常,這一部分會涉及包含人名在內的四個話題,例如:人名,家鄉,教育或職業背景,空閒生活。時間也通常在4-5分鐘之內。問題量也通常在9-15題左右。這就意味着,每道題的最理想回答時長應該在20-30秒之間,通常也就是2-4句話。

其間,考官的主要目的不是在測量學生的英語口語水平有多高,而更主要的的是幫助考生放鬆並開始試着講英文。也就是說,這一部分表現得好壞不會對總體成績有太大的影響。即使這一部分講得很糟糕,仍然有的高分的機會。然而這也不是說,這一部分就無足輕重。考生必須清楚,在這一部分,考官已經在考慮該考生是什麼樣的英文水平以及適合得幾分了。

第二部分:主題卡片陳述

在這一部分,考官會遞給考生一張主題卡片,卡片上附有問題和相關觀點。拿到卡片後,考生有一分鐘時間準備,同時可以在提供的草紙上作筆記(不可以拿出考場)。

然後,考生應該就所給的話題作出1-2分鐘的陳述。回答不可以太長,也不可以太短。太短則欠缺內容,是考官認爲該學生不具備英文分析描述的能力。太長則容易被考官打斷,使其認爲該考生不能抓住重點或者有背誦之嫌。

注意,在考生陳述結束之後,考官可能會在附加提出1-2問題(也可能沒有),但是不會對第二部分成績有太大影響。此時,考生沒必要過多重複已經講過的內容。回答要簡潔,切題,明瞭。

第三部分:深入討論

該部分是考官會就第二部分所討論的主題再提出一些較抽象,總結,概括性的問題,以綜合考察考生的分析,對比,解釋和闡述的能力。此部分總體時間爲4-5分鐘。

在這一部分,問題數量取決於回答的長短。然而,由於此部分考生要處理一些較抽象或概括的問題,並且要綜合運用多種英文能力,每個問題的理想長度應爲1分鐘左右。同時注意,不要走得太深,扯得太遠,一定要切題,否則只能是考官難以把握你所講述的重點。

  在雅思備考中 雅思口語考試要怎麼準備

爲什麼雅思口語會成爲中國學生的最大“軟肋”?原因主要有二:一是學校日常英語教學中忽視口語練習;二是雅思口語備考,很難找到適合的複習切入點,導致考生走了很多彎路。那麼雅思口語該怎麼複習呢?

第一、跟讀

模仿是打好口語基礎的最初的過程,而口語模仿的最基本方法就是跟讀,跟讀可以養成地道的發音以及良好的英語語感。

跟讀的目的是糾正自己的語音語調以及提高組織句法能力。發音是評分標準的大頭,至於句法的模仿,是建立在良好詞彙的基礎上的,要慢慢適應西方的思維表達方式,這是一個潛移默化的過程。至於整體的語調,就是語感的體現,並沒有固定的套路,隨着跟讀的量增加,語感自然是越來越好的。

第二、複述

跟讀到了一定量,就不用再繼續了,應該轉而挑戰練習複述。可以以背誦雅思各類範文爲起點,不但積累了單詞和句法,還能培養語感,甚至可以用到雅思口語的PART2中去。不過,背誦的內容應該是由短到長,由淺到深的一個過程。背前要跟着音頻熟讀掌握語音語調,這樣才能最大限度的挖掘背誦的潛力。

但背誦畢竟只是初級階段,真正的複述是要能夠靈活運用詞彙進行替換,用各種不同的詞彙、不同的語法表達一個意思。

在雅思口語考試中,很多考生都會遇到無話可說的尷尬狀況。這會直接影響考官的評分印象,導致自身口語能力無法完全展示。要取高分就要有新意,拓展性思維訓練可以幫考生在答題中增加亮點。

有兩個拓展思路的方法

A. 既要多角度,又要全面

雅思口語考試中,考生常犯思考角度單一,內容不豐富的毛病。其實答題要從多角度思考,還要合理。需要先直接給明確答案,保證考官瞭解你已經領會了問題的用意。

B. 有邏輯地“秀”一下

要學會主動性拓展答題,不要只回答考官提問,在考官問題基礎上自己增加信息量。靈活套用自問自答方式,把所需回答內容的關鍵信息,連同發散開來的信息一起傳達給考官。切記,內容拼湊要合理完整,不要胡編亂造,沒有邏輯性。另外,需要注意的是掌握適度原則,否則也可能被認定偏題。

如果在雅思考試中,考生髮現談到的問題自己熟悉,可以採用積極答題方式。表述中靈活加入想法,找生動例子讓內容豐富和個性化。

第三、原創

這裏介紹三大個性化答題方式

A. 好“反向”、“迂迴”思維

反向思維,出其不意,要出現大部分人想不到的事物,讓考官產生新鮮感。只有做到特別,才能拿高分。另外,迂迴思維,通過多角度、多層次回答問題,達到準確。

B. 學說諺語再幽默點

既想言簡意賅,又想有亮點,用諺語是最有效的辦法。英語諺語流傳非常廣,大家平時要多積累,考試中用上一兩句效果會非常好。還要記得發揮一些想象力,多運用幽默。

C. 帶入個人理解

學會以小見大,把個人想法、感受昇華到更高層次的境界,提高通篇的思想。如果把握不好主題較寬或難度大的題目,可以從個人情感點切入,把問題簡單化。

  雅思口語範文:An English Class

簡單版:

The English lesson that left me a deep impression( 讓我印象深刻)was taught by my junior high-school teacher, Miss Wang. One day she came into the class with a bag of things in her hand. I was curious about what they were and Miss wang said “it’s a surprise!” That really made me more interested. Later she told the class that we were going to learn how to order meals in English. First she showed pictures of tasty food and played a video of a person ordering steak. From the video, I learned lots of natural expressions (自然的表達), and even better, I got to know some western table manners, like you have to put your napkin on your lap before you eat the steak, and place fork in your left hand and hold the knife in your right hand. The best part was that we had a role-playing game. My teacher Miss wang first divided the class into pairs, gave us some food as realia (課堂教具), and provided some sentences and dialogues for us to practice. Everything went on smoothly and effectively. It was definitely one of the best English lessons I’ve ever had.

升級版:

I have had many English lessons throughout my academic years, and the most impressive one was taught by my junior high-school English teacher, _. It was a Friday morning; she came into the class, holding her teaching materials and carrying a huge bag of things. When wondering what they were, I was told that it’s gonna be a surprise for the class. That really held my attention (讓我興致盎然).

Shortly afterwards, she said to the class“today, we are going to learn how to order a menu in english” On hearing that,I was like “wow, is she going to treat us to some delicacies(請我們吃美味佳餚)? That would be amazing!” Then basically, she showed some pictures of tantalizing food on her power-point, and engaged students to discuss what they prefer to eat and why. Every one looked so intrigued and was eager to talk. In a while she played a video of a person ordering a menu in a steak house. Through watching that clip(片段), not only did I learn some authentic restaurant vocabulary and expressions (地道的用餐詞彙和表達), but also I got aware ofwesterndining etiquette(西方用餐禮儀). I have to say that lesson was really well-planned(精心設計的). But that’s not all. What fascinated me most was the food she brought to the class. Believe it or not, those things in the bag were mini steaks! Hardly can you imagine how much she must have spent on them. The final activity was a role-playing game: students working in pairs, one plays the role of a waiter and the other a customer. I was lucky enough to the customer and try the was like a taste of heaven(太美味了!), so tender and fresh.

All in all, this lesson was definitely something unforgettable. It was about English, but also about culture and communication. Totally student-focused(以學生爲中心)!
