一、拓展細節

造成答案過短的主要原因之一就是「只回答」考官所提的問題。而是事實上,考官提問的目的並不「只想聽」問題的答案。在基本答案的基礎上,考生們需要主動給出更多額外信息,因為考官想聽到更多「語言能力」的展示。

所以大部分的題目的核心拓展思路為:Direct answer + 拓展

1. 拓展= 5WH+ How Often

這個方法基本就是「自問自答」,把與核心內容相關的各方面信息主動提供給考官,然後連綴成完整的答案。下面我們來看一下part1和part2的一些真題演示。

Part 1真題:Have you traveled recently?

思路演示1 :Yes, I have. (Direct answer)Last month (when) I went to Hong Kong (where) with my parents (who). We had a great time at the Disney Land and went shopping,too.(what) 思路演示2: No,I haven』t(Direct answer). I』m been busy with my studies (why).But after the exam (when), my parents and I (who) are going to Hong Kong and we would like to go to Disney Land and go shopping, too. (What)

Part 2雅思口語真題:

Describe a library that you have used.

You should say:

where it was

what type of library it was

what you used the library for

what you liked and /or disliked about this library

and explain how useful it was for your studies or research.

雅思口語思路演示:「where it was」: on campus(Direct answer)

(Where): It was next to our teaching building of English Department (When) : It was built 50 years ago when our school was established. (Who) : Most of the students liked to go there as well as the teachers (How often): I almost went there everyday especially around exam time.

我們可以看到,這個方法簡單易行,是拓展思路最基本的方法,只要具備基本的語法功底就可以輕鬆做到。 但在part2中筆者建議考生們不要使用「過量」,因為part2有嚴格的時間限制,如果每一條point都補充很詳細的信息很有可能會遺漏卡片上的重要信息,甚至會讓考官覺得你「跑題」,所以適可而止就可以了。

2. 拓展= examples

在基本答案之後,考生可主動引入例子。我們先來看一下常見真題的演示:

Part 1 真題: Whats your favourite type of music? 思路演示: Well,I』m a big fan of Modern Popular Music(Direct answer), you know, like Hip-Pop, Rap, Rhythm and Blues , Rock 『n roll, things like that…

Part 3 真題:What kinds of films do people in China like to watch? 思路演示:Well, they watch a broad range of movies, in fact(Direct answer). For instance, men prefer Action & Adventure , Martial Arts and Romantic Comedy. But women are more into Romance and Romantic Comedy. And children are quite interested in Science Fiction and Animated Cartoons…

你會發現,如果你對所涉及話題比較熟悉,就應該主動找機會採取舉例子的方法,把之前積累的辭彙作為「examples」展示出來,這是展示「vocabulary」的能力,化被動為主動向考官拿分的好方法。

3. 拓展= feelings and opinions

我們都知道在口語part1和part2中問題都是圍繞考生的personal details來設置的,所以可隨時加入自己的感受與觀點,我們先來看一下常見的真題的演示:

Part 2雅思口語真題:

Describe a teacher who has greatly influenced you in your education.

You should say:

where you met them

what subject they taught

what was special about them

and explain why this person influenced you so much. 思路演示:「what subject they taught」 He taught us maths in the second year of middle school. Well, I have to say that, before I had Mr. Chen as my teacher, maths had always been so boring and difficult to me that I always slept during class, it was my nightmare, you know. And I guess that is why I didn』t like him at the beginning…

通過以上的例子我們可以看到,在雅思口語考試的表達中隨時加入感受與觀點,不僅可以輕鬆充實卡片的內容,而且可以使內容更加生動和個性化,避免給考官留下呆板無趣的印象,對最終的分數有很積極的影響。

二、拓展角度

在雅思口語考試中,有時考生常常因為思考角度比較單一,所以答案內容也會有些單薄,這時我們不妨多一個角度思考問題。下面我們來看一下真題演示:

1. 「WH問題」

Part1 真題:Do you prefer to buy things in small shops or in big supermarkets and department stores?

思路演示:Well,I』m more into small shops if I would like to buy things that are special, you know, something like shoes,or accessories. But if I need to buy foods or electrical equipment, then it』s more likely that I would go to a department store, which is more reliable …

2. 「Yes/No問題」

Part 3真題:Do you think healthy eating is important?

思路演示:Yes,eating healthy foods is necessary in many ways,especially that it can prevent some diseases like diabetes. But I think that it is fine to eat a little unhealthy foods in moderation,in fact,we have to say that most of the fast foods are tastier than healthy foods…

從以上的例子我們可以看到,從多一個角度考慮問題,答案往往就會豐富許多,並且聽起來更加合理全面。但是一定要注意先給出明確直接的答案,否則會讓考官感覺你並未給出正面觀點,有跑題的嫌疑。以上是最簡單口語思路拓展,更多口語相關問題可以諮詢9分雅思姐:thinku_9fenyasijie。
