雅思口语话题思路-地点建筑篇

雅思口语卡片题中有一类被称为“地点与建筑”题，所谓地点是指像 “a city” “a country” “a place you’d like to go to”这样的题目，回答的时候更多的是从相对概括的角度去说这个地方的位置，历史，人文以及衣食住行等方面。而建筑题目像 “ a library” “a museum” “a concert hall”等则需要考生对建筑的外在结构和内在设施进行更多的描述。

相信大家在回答地点题时，问题都不大。但关于建筑题，很多同学很容易把描述过程变成 there be 句型的大*。比如说“一个房间”， 有的同学醉心于用there be 描述房间里面的各种摆设，殊不知因为内容过于乏味，考官已经“神游四海”了。在这里，介绍大家一个好方法可以让这种比较“鸡肋”的话题马上充满趣味。“1＋1”原则会帮助大家生产出更出色的表达。 所谓的“1＋1”原则是指，每描述建筑的某个特点，就在后面加上相关的背景故事（原因，带来的感觉等），让描述与叙述相结合，这样可以有效的避免答案的枯燥感。

例子：

A roomI’m glad to say something about my bedroom. It’s a medium-sized room with one large French window that overlooks the fountain in the communal garden. Standing beside the window and watching children playing around the fountain is a kind of fun in my everyday life. 通过“每天我都喜欢站在窗边，看着孩子们围着喷泉玩耍”这句话，很好的传达了一种形象感，这就是窗带来的生活感受。I had the room decorated when I moved in. I chose light blue paint to make it light and increase the feeling of space. What’s more, it’s also my favorite color that represents the ocean and the sky. Whenever I stay in the room, I feel quite relaxed and cozy. 既然说房间的颜色，就不要只说颜色，要把颜色后面的故事一并讲出来，如上面提到“淡蓝色是我喜欢的颜色，它代表着天空和海洋，每次在这种颜色的房间休息，我都能感觉放松而且惬意“。这样的答案才能让考官产生共鸣。I like a feeling of space so there’s no unnecessary furniture—just a sofa, a *all wardrobe, a bookshelf and a computer desk. I also have two wicker trunks that I use for storage purposes but they also provide extra seating when I have lots of visitors. And on the wall, there is an Indian scene with lots of people and an elephant, preparing for a long journey. I love it because it makes me think of traveling. It’s probably my favorite possession. Just because of this picture, I really made a journey to India last autumn. All what I experienced there was so exciting and unforgettable. 通过说墙上的一副装饰画，引出一个背景故事，内容真实而有趣。
