解释自己的答案
许多学生表达了自己的观点,但没有解释他们为什么这么想扩展他们的答案。在采访了一些同学后,他们发现考官知道他们为什么这样回答,或者是因为他们害怕他们不想听到他们扩展的内容。但事实上,内容不在考官的调查范围内。我们需要做的是假设考官对这个话题一无所知,这将有助于你深入解释你的感受。例如:
Q: What can people do to reduce water pollution?
A: I believe the best way to keep water clean is to curb water use at home. (Why?) The vast majority of water is used in the home, (why?), for cooking, cleaning and washing, (why?) therefore by reducing the amount of water we use, the government can conserve the water supply and keep it clean.
这一技巧更适合学生运用上述“解决问题”类别。在“原因讨论类”等问题中。在回答的过程中,不停地问自己“why“技巧,同学们可以不断地深入挖掘自己的想法,并把它放在答案里,再也不用担心自己只能回答一句话了。
举例子
在紧急情况下,举个例子比绞尽脑汁想一些更学术的解释更快更有效,因为举的例子通常是你自己经历过的故事,但是更有真情实感,考官会因为这个完美的答案更愿意得高分。比如:
Q: Have the modes of transport people use in your country changed much over the last few decades?
A: Absolutely, they have changed a lot. In the past most people used bicycles, but now they predominantly use motorbikes. For example, a recent survey found that 72% of people in Ho Chi. Minh City now own a motorbike.
同学们在准备上述对比类问题时,可以使用这一技巧来扩展自己的答案。
作出让步
“我们也可以用”however”、“on the other hand”、“despite this“等词做出让步。有些考生不愿意使用让步。他们认为这会削弱他们的观点。事实上,就像雅思作文一样,一定程度的让步可以显示你对这个话题的理解,从而加强你的观点,尤其是在观点调查的话题中,让步的效果会更好。例如:
Q: To what extent do you think advertising affects people’s shopping habits?
A: Personally, I don’t think that it affects the way people shop at all. When people need something they make up their own mind rather than thinking about adverts. However, it must have some influence, if companies pay lots of money for ads.
与雅思大作文合并备考
上面也提到了,其实part 3与雅思大作文有些相似之处,part 3可以看作是mini版的雅思作文,都是关于社会问题的讨论,那么为什么学生不把它们放在一起准备呢?例如:
口语题目:Do you think human activity is posing a threat to the ocean?
写作题目:More and more plastic waste is polluting the world's city, countryside and ocean. What problems will it cause?What measures should be taken to solve these problems?
这篇大作文的题目是part3提供了一个想法,与此同时,每个人都在思考part 3在题目的时候,也可以为雅思作文积累素材。但是,我们必须注意的是,雅思口语和写作的表达不应该混合在一起,我们应该尽最大努力积累思想和材料。
以上是一些雅思口语part3提供给大家的破题思路,当然,仅仅阅读这篇文章并不能帮助大家取得快速的进步。建议多练习,然后通过回听找到自己的弱点,然后不断改进,这样才能更顺利的拿到高分。祝大家早日取得自己满意的雅思口语分数。
