雅思口语考题基本上是五大原则:人,物,地点,事件,媒体。
T:在讲五大原则任何一个的时候,务必把这个原则与你联系在一起,开头的时候有个主题句,通过这句话引入下面的支持观点,这个主题句可以通过一到两句话来完成,但最好是对你有影响的。描述这个人---对你有影响;描述这个物----对你有意义;描述这个地点---对你有回忆等等。。。
S:支持观点,在这里要注意,我相信很多同学都会用观点来支持自己,但太过于白话文,大部分用例子来支撑,部分考生喜欢用Forexample,First,secondly,lastbutnottheleast来讲分论点,但这样给考官的感觉是在背作文,而不是真正的口语。在S这的观点一般是需要比较正式点的语言,每讲的一句话最好不少于5个单词以下,但最好不超过5句话。过渡词用什么好呢最好用well,also,actually,asamatteroffact,youknow等等词。
E:当然就是找到支持观点的例子,恰当的例子,但是字数不能过多,要简练。
随着手机拍照的流行,大家应该都已经快忘记可以冲洗的照片的珍贵了吧,偏偏我们的最新雅思口语机经中出现了这样的话题卡,为了防止大家在回答雅思口语的过程中说“跑偏”到手机内存中的照片,我们可以在开头的介绍中就提到相框frame,胶卷film,悬挂hang这类的词。这样给考官的最初印象就是你完全理解了题目的要求。
下面就以撒狗粮的方式,看看雅思口语里介绍照片的套路:
ForthefavoritepictureIhaveinmyroomistheonewithmyboyfriendandIsmilinginfrontoftheDisneylandPark.ItisputrightonthewallfacingmybedsoeverytimeIliedownIcanrememberthosemoments.

Butatleastwestillhavethephoto.ItisalwaysreminiscentofthatlovelytimeattheparkandIbelievetherearemorehappymomentstobefilmedwithustogether.
本篇中我选择了一些稍难但”含情脉脉”的词在雅思口语中表达情感。要知道说的越真实,细节越多,越能打动考官获得高分
1.Dim:(light)notbright
Ie:Thislightistoodimtoreadby
2.serenity:thequalityofbeingcalmandpeaceful
Ie:Thehoteloffersahavenofpeaceandserenityawayfromthebustleofthecity
3.Fadeout:tobecomelessclearorquieter
Ie:Fadeoutthemusicattheendfothescene
4.Reminiscent:remindyouofsomebody/something
Ie:Thewayhelaughedwasstronglyreminiscentofhisfather.
其次回答时可以尽量分层次的梳理,比如问到中国人喜欢的植物时,可以按照不同人群的特点来总结概括。
下面就是针对favoritephoto的话题举例的两个part3的答案参考
1.What’stheadvantagesanddisadvantagesoftakingphotoswithsmartphones
思路分析:优点更容易总结,例如方便携带,更容易传输;缺点是失去了拍照的瞬间性,很多摆拍的照片没有更多的纪念意义
Well,thefirstbenefitoftakingphotoswithsmartphoneswouldbeeasytransmission.It’sveryhandytoshareapicturewithfriendsaslongasthereisinternetavailable.ItcouldbeeveneasieriftwomobilesarebothiPhones,thankstotheairdrop.

2.Whatisthebenefitoflearningpaintingforchildren
思路分析:发展孩子的想象力从而培养他们的创造力是学习绘画带来的最直接的好处,同时也可以让孩子还学去欣赏生活中的美好,进而更加尊重生命。
Firstofall,paintingistheeasiestwayforchildrentoexpresstheirimagination.Solearningtodothatwoulddefinitelystrengthentheirabilitytothinkoutsideoftheboxwhichissignificantfortheirlaterlives.

雅思口语Part3被认为是debate的形式,如果答案准备的不够全面充分就很可能会遇到被考官“质疑”追着问的情况,所以如果在最开始的回答时就可以尽量完整,那就不会给考官留下“穷追猛打”的机会啦
