有效实用的雅思口语思维发散方法

面对雅思口语考场上的任何口语问题，同学们切勿被动回答，要在适量适度的基础上，主动拓展语言内容。因为答案内容本身并不是决定分数的主要因素，关键在于你们就某个话题所展现出来的语言水平。比如，考官的问题是“What’s your favorite sport, and why?”，A同学回答“Basketball. Because it’s very interesting and exciting.”，而B同学的答案是 “I’m crazy about basketball. I usually play it with my clas*ates on weekends.There are many reasons why I’m into it. Primarily, playing basketball is a great way to keep healthy and fit. Besides, there are *aller amount injuries in basketball than football. What’s the most important is that you do not need a whole team to play basketball.”很显然，后者的答案更容易博得考官的好感，分数也自然会更高。那么，怎样有效地扩展语言？首先要把思维扩展开，以下是推荐给大家的好方法。

一、正反对立法

“正反对立法”是指每当谈到一个问题的优点，还可以顺便提到它的缺点，反之亦然。这是符合西方人的思维方式的，别忘了，有句西方谚语是这么说的“Every coin has two sides.”
例   Question: How do you usually go to school, and why?
Answer : I usually go to school by taking the bus, because it’s quite economical and convenient. What’s more, buses run much more frequently and can be easier to navigate. Although sometimes it is too crowded and time-consuming, I still think it’s a wise choice to me.
当你这样去回答问题时，优点有三个 ：a. 拓展了语言长度 ；b. 更多地展示你就这个话题 所了解的词汇，以此向考官证明，这个话题对于你是小菜一碟 ；c. 从思维方式上，你跟考官是 一样的，心理距离自然就拉近了。

二、比较对比法

一个考官朋友曾经告诉我，比较与对比都是很重要的语言方法，也是雅思口语考试所考查的重点内容。同时，这也是一种好的扩展语言的方法。具体方法是，通过横向比较同类事物或内容，突出强调其中一个内容。
例Question: What kind of music do you like best, and why?
Answer : Light music takes my fancy most. It’s pretty relaxing and soothing, like some kind of therapy. Personally, light music is really a great medium that can enhance one’s quality of life. However, music like rock ’n roll is more fashionable. It is obviously not my cup of tea, since it’s always so exciting and aggressive.
这样回答问题可以向考官证明你对整个话题都很了解，也可以很轻松地展现答案内容的 丰满。

三、平行分说法

所谓“平行分说法”，就是“平行”的逻辑，把话题涉及到的内容分开来说，而不是聚焦到某个方面。
例   Question: What do you usually do on weekends?
Answer: Well, I’m used to doing sports on weekends. And it depends on the weather. If it’s a nice day, I usually go to play tennis with my best friend at a nearby tennis court. Playing tennis can help me improve both the physical functioning and emotional health. If not, I mostly go to the gym to run on the treadmill or have yoga classes.
这样的答案逻辑清晰，层次分明，同样能够展现大量的词汇和丰富的内容。

四、万能组句法

对于大部分话题，这个方法都有效。它指的是通过对 what, who, when, where, why 和 how 等问题的回答，结合起来就变成一个完整的答案了。
例   Question: What’s your hobby?
Answer: My hobby is shopping. I usually go shopping with my mother when we are free, especially on weekends. And we like to go to Xidan, where many shopping malls and clothes chain stores can be found. I have to say shopping to me is the best way to get relaxed, and it’s really amazing.
在上面的答案里，通过说购物、与谁购物、什么时间购物、在哪儿购物、为什么购物和对购物的评价，组成了一个很自然的答案。就此方法，大部分的问题临场就能组织起不错的回答。
