对于冲刺雅思口语6分段的同学们,在起初备考Part 2部分时,比较常见的一个问题是不知如何开口以及适当地进行衔接,只是简单地把话题卡上的问题当作一个“考官”在问自己问题,然后针对每一个问题去简单回答。这篇文章南京雅思封闭班老师将给大家提供一个建议性的思维方式,在最初的口语练习中,我们可以对照着话题卡,利用每一个具体问题内化形成自己的口语输出思维,不断提升自己的英语思维能力和口语自然表述的能力。

首先,Opener性质的开场语句:
→ Well, for this topic, I’d like to talk about …
→ I’d like to describe …
比如要描述一个你喜欢的演员或是一趟难忘的旅行,你可以说:
→ Well, for this topic, I’d like to talk about my favorite action flick star X.
→ I’d like to describe a memorable car trip in Beijing when I was in middle school.
接着,针对于第二、第三个问题,我们可以用到:
→ Now, regarding/concerning the next question of ...
Moving on to the matter of …
举个例子:
→ Now, concerning the next question of “How I knew him or her”, I first met …
在这里,不要原封不动地念一遍话题卡上的问题,建议可以转换一下问题的人称,或是可以把问题Paraphrase,再在后面加上自己想说的内容就可以啦。
如果针对某个话题还有需要补充的要点,我们可以说:
→ plus ...
→ Another point I could add is …
→ Now, let’s look at …
e.g. Another point I could add is that we really enjoyed the local food at that short trip.
最后,可以适当地有一个总结,一个是显得我们的回答更有逻辑、结构更加完整,同时也可以给考官一个提示:
→ Finally, I’d like to explain to you ...
→ In short, …
下面是一篇融合了以上思维方式的口语范例供大家参考:
Describe a building in a school or university that you attended.
You should say:
where it is
what it looks like
what it is used for
and explain how you feel about this building.
→Sample answer:
Well, for this topic, I’d like to talk about the library in my college, which is located at the east corner of our campus, XX university. I have to say the library is the most unique building of my uni.
Now, regarding the next question of “what the building looks like”, actually, it’s like other buildings, made of concrete and steel, but the shape and design are special. If you look at the library from outside, you’ll find it looks like a big bookcase full of books – the shape of each window is just like a book. The color is red and yellow because these colors are very bright and attractive.
Moving on to the matter of “what the building is used for”, the first floor is a big hall, where you can check out or check in your books. All the new books are placed there. On the second to the fourth floor, you could find all kinds of reference materials about various majors, and of course, there’re some entertaining books. There’re also study areas on each floor. Plus, there’s a computer lab on the fifth floor, where students can get online or search for books.
Finally, I’d like to explain to you “how I felt about this library”, I love reading, and the gorgeous library makes me love reading even more for the perfect reading atmosphere it created. I’m glad that our school built such a wonderful library building.
今天南京雅思封闭班老师的分享就到这里,同学们在平时的备考过程中一定要以提升自己的综合能力为主,这个参考性的表达方式比较适合刚刚开始备考雅思且没有太多思维训练的同学。语言学习是一个厚积薄发的过程,所以现在就开始练习起来吧!
