雅思口语考试:遇到时尚类话题怎么应付
接下来我们就拿几个第一部分比较有代表性的口语问题来分析看看如何回答这些问题。
1. Q: What kind of clothes do youlike to wear?
本题询问服装种类,我们首先快速地从脑子里搜索到相关的词汇,然后加上符合自己的理由,给出答案。
A: Icertainly fancy simple andcontracted clothing(简约风格)which brings huge comfort and simplicity to me. I know whatsuits me and what doesn’t, so I always wear clothes and never let clothes wearme. Sometimes I buy trendy brands and clothes, but that takes away individuality(个性).
以上答案用到了刚刚补充的服装风格,又交代了原因,后面补充了自身对于潮流服装的看法,考生们大可在直接回答完问题之宏晌后扩展开话题,聊一些与服装有关的内容,这样既能展示自身的词汇量和知识面,又能打开新搏绝答话题。
我们再来看一道题:
2. Q: Do you like shopping?
本题问的是购物,关于购物我们可以说很多,然而为了省时省力我们可以贯彻“拿来主义”,运用前面用到过的词汇等素材来帮助我们答题,所以在直接回答问题之后我们可以把话题引到服装上来。
A:Sure, sometimes I’m crazy about shopping. The eye-dazzling goods(眼花缭乱的商品)and name brands(名牌)in boutiques(精品店)and shopping centres are just so fascinating that I can’t helpmyself to buy them. But mostly, I’m rather rational about what I like, like myfavourite clothing style, thesimple and contracted. Idon't really care whether my clothes are from a name brand, but it’s the styleI fancy and the comfort andindividualityI can enjoythat make me want to buy them.
本题我们也用到了在前面补充的内容,即服装风格和特性。由此可见我们完全可以把已经掌握的知识用于不同的题目中,既丰富了答案,又给自己减了负。
接下来我们再拿一个有关包的题目分析一下如何回答:
3. Q: What kind of bags do youlike?
本题我们运用前面讲到的包包类型来直接回答这个问题,并且我们可以用包包的特征来充当喜欢这类包的原因,答案如下。
A: Ilove shoulder bags(肩背包)mostbecause they have large capacity(容量)so Ican put all my stuff, like my purse, my notebook and several bags ofhandkerchief paper, in it. They are really of high utility and functionality(实用性和功能性).
4. Q: Do you have different bagsfor different occasions?
本题我们首先照实回答我们拥有的包包种类,然后依然可以运用各种不同的包包种类来扩充答案。
A:Well, I should say I merely havetotes(手提包), shoulder bagsandbackpacks(双肩包基慧), and I douse them for different occasions. For example, I use my shoulder bags and totesfor university and backpacks for outdoor activities like hiking or something.But I don't have a clutch(手包)forspecial occasions because I don't have such occasions to attend.
这两题都涉及到了包包的种类,所以我们运用前面讲过的不同种类包包的名称来丰富我们的答案,这些详细的包包名称既能准确的表示你想说的内容,又能有效地让考官听懂,一举两得。
说完第一部分的话题,我们再来看第二部分中一个有关时尚的经典问题:apiece of clothing you wear on special occasions.
有关这道题目的要求如下:
Describea piece of clothing you wear on special occasions.
Youshould say:
Whatthe clothing looks like
Whereyou bought it
Onwhat occasions you wear it
Andexplain why you wear it on special occasions.
拿到这道题我们要关注到这道题的关键词specialoccasion(特殊场合)。特殊场合包括各种典礼,如:结婚典礼、毕业典礼、开学典礼等,也包括一些职业场合,如:面试、采访等,当然也包括舞会、聚会等。如果需要从这些场合中挑一个来描述的话,想必婚礼、毕业典礼和面试是我们同学都多多少少经历过,也是最适合我们同学们来说的了。今天我们就以结婚典礼为背景,结合前面补充的关于服装时尚的知识,来做一个示范。
An one-piece dress(连衣裙)I wore onmy cousin’s wedding ceremony three years ago is the one that I cherish most andchanges me most. It was the very first one-piece dress I bought and I clearlyremember that it was a Dolce & Gabbana. I specially bought it in Shanghaitwo weeks before my cousin’s wedding. To me, it was costly at that time, ofcourse. I bought it because I was firstly invited to be an honoured bride*aid.I was extremely excited and nervous because I was somewhat about to be thecentre of attention. Speaking of the dress, well, it is short, pink and sleeveless(无袖的)with a lacecollar(蕾丝领边). I adored it so much, but, honestly, it was my first timewearing such one-piece dress, let alone I had to wear it in front of a fairlylarge crowd! So on that day, I was so stressful and nervous that I couldn'teven look people in their eyes. But what surprised me a lot was when my cousinsaw me in this dress, she couldn't stop saying that I was adorable(可爱的)and elegant(优雅的)inthat dress. And surprises were just coming one after another. Almost everyonewho saw me praised my look and gave me confidence. I was quite encouragedbecause I used to wear jeans(牛仔裤)and T-shirts(T恤)day after day. I had never changed my clothing style. But fromthat day on, I tried to change my dressingstyle(穿衣风格)a little bit, and I noticed that change sometimes broughtsurprise and pleasure. So, this dress will always be my favourite, and alway*e a remainder that reminds me of the beauty of change.
本文描述了一条粉色、短款、无袖的连衣裙,以及领口是蕾丝质地,品牌是Dolce& Gabbana,非常直观详细地让人在脑海中勾勒出衣服的样子。我们需要注意的是,对物品的描述不能只停留在颜色和大小,而应该更具体一些,并且有几个亮点,如本文的无袖、蕾丝领边,都是使这个物品区别于其他物品的特点,让人印象深刻。其次,我们对物品的描述需要用个人经历和内心活动来使其更具有生命力和表现力,让人感同身受,所以本文加了对连衣裙的态度的转变,让听者跟随说话者的描述对这条裙子产生更贴切的感受。本文并没有用一些华丽的辞藻和句式,但对物品和内心活动的详实描述让人感同身受、印象深刻,这就够了。
基于前面的例子,我们再来系统地补充一下关于各种服装的名称和特征,便于考生选择适合自己的表达,让回答更具体,更独特,更有个人特征(personalised),而不是泛泛而谈,让人转身就忘,无效沟通。

考生们可以按照个人喜好、经历和想要表达的内容来选择不同的服装,描述不同的材质和部位,把答案细化,引人注意。
接下来,我们把目光移到口语第三部分的题目上。第三部分关于服装的问题相对于前两部分有了更深入的询问和探讨。以往常会问到的题目包括考生对于年轻人追求时尚的态度,对于时尚的定义,穿着的重要性等等。我们可以发现这一部分的问题明显更深入更引人思考。在这里我们选取三个代表性的问题来分析一下。
1.Q: Do you think it’s important (or, good) to follow the currentfashion in the clothes you wear?
我们在本文一开始就分析了服装的作用,以及对追求时尚的态度。所以我们可以引用前面讲的内容来帮助答题。
A: Idon't think we should put much focus on the current fashion in the clothes.Sure fashion makes you “in”(潮的), but don'tyou think once you are “in”, you are not true you but someone who looks nodifferent from others. I mean, fashion makes us look all the same without our individuality(个性), soto me it’s more important to find my own way of wearing clothes, rather thanfollowing the current fashion.
2.Q: Why do many young people feel it’s important to wear clothes thatare “in fashion”?
本题询问原因,所以我们要分析年轻人追求时尚潮流的目的和心理,我们可以从服装时尚吸引人的地方入手,再分析年轻人的心理。
A:First, I have to say that clothes are more of aform of creative artistic expression(一种创意艺术表达形式), rather than a tool to merely keep us from naked and from climatic changes(防止受到天气影响以及起到蔽体的作用). So theirartisticand aesthetic values(艺术和审美价值)make them apiece of art for individuals to pursue and to follow. Besides, young people aremore concerned about what others are thinking of them, and this is particularlytrue when it comes to their appearance. Following an “in fashion” is like asymbol that says “you are with us” or “you are not left behind”, which makes itfairly understandable that young people are more likely to wear “in fashion”clothes at a very special age.
本题前半部分引用了文章一开始补充的服装的作用,用于说明现代服装的功能有了巨大的转变,预示着追求服装成了一种发展的结果。后半段分析了年轻人处于敏感的年龄阶段,更容易受到他人影响,所以追求服装时尚以求与他人的一致是非常自然且容易理解的。
3.Q: Do you think people tend to judge others by the clothes theywear? (Why?)
本题其实有很多角度可以切入。联系实际我们知道,我们看一个人的穿着主要看是否干净整洁,也看是否根据场合不同而穿着得体。但是我们不会,也不应该,因为一个人的穿着来评断说这个人的好坏。这样答案就显而易见了。另外一个角度可以从年轻人入手。年轻人喜欢追求潮流,所以可以通过一个人的穿着判定这个人是不是与自己是“一伙的”。所以我们可以给出至少两种答案。
A1:First, I have to say that I don't think most people judge others by the clothesthey wear. Sure, we inevitably judge whether the person has a clean andorganised(干净的、有条理的)living habit by whether they wear neatly and tidily. And we aresomewhat concerned about whether people dress *artly(衣着讲究)in differentoccasions. But none of these would we use to judge the quality of a person, or,in other words, whether the person is good.
A2:Well, it’s a pretty hard question because I don't know what all people arethinking. But according to my knowledge, young people are more like to judge aperson by the clothes they wear. If a person wears the latest clothes, youngpeople will think he or she is an “in person”, or at least, “in theirdistinctive group”. Accordingly, it is more likely for them to accept theperson as theirs. And once they accept the person, they don't think the personis bad. So, that's why I think young people tend to judge others by the clothesthey wear.
第三部分的题目比较不固定,所以考生们要掌握最核心的知识,记住最通用的素材,灵活变通,把第三部分的题目化到最简。虽然题目不简单,但我们发现其实文章开始补充的背景知识是非常好用的。只要考生们认真仔细阅读,并依据一个个的题目展开练习,归纳整理,相信很快就能把与时尚相关的题目搞定。
雅思口语的答题技巧有哪些
你好,雅思口语有哪些答题技巧?
-
对于备考时间较长的考生,建议本着务实求真的精神,彻彻底底将口语基础打牢。切记,口语和写作都是真正揭晓实力的两门,绝不能依仗技巧取胜。有经验的考官不会完全照读考题,而是会为你“量身定做”(Tailor-made)顺势出题。
-
减少描述,增加议论。评价性的语言通常比描述更为具体。
-
变抽象为具体。很多考生觉得口语话题难,就是因为没话说,特别是看似较为抽象的话题,如Describe a success。总觉得success肯定是较为光鲜的事迹,对照自己似乎找不到素材。其实如果把success具体化,看作是successfully did sth,构思就会容易许多。
-
扭转乾坤,话题巧转移。口语考试重形式而非内容,只要能巧妙自然地将拿到的话题转到自己觉得熟悉的内容上来,必定会有更好的效果。
希望能够帮到同学!
雅思口语比较类答题技巧
同基础的考生备考雅思口语所使用的备考方法是不一样的,时常会有令人啼笑皆非的事情发生。想要给考官留下一个好的印象,需要考生了解一下雅思口语比较类答题技巧的相关内容。
在雅思口语考中,让考生们对比两种事物或情景似乎是考官们的“心头好”。不管是在Part 1或是Part 3, 这样的问题比比皆是。
因为它能让考官们快速掂量出考生的口语水平,所以要想让考官们在内心给你点赞,这类问题我们一定要攻克下来。小编从以下几点分析这类话题的回答技巧~
说到底,对比类问题的实质其实是Make comparison。当你在考场中听到考官抛出的问题里含有“differences”, “prefer”, “which…”, “changes”, “advantages and disadvantages”等词汇,一定要敏感地捕捉到考官问的是对比类问题了,此时,回答对比类问题的“特技”要甩出来了。
特技一:比较
两者进行比较时,使用比较算是基本的“特技”了,比如eating at home is cheaper than eating out. 这种入门的技巧只要分清楚什么样的形容词直接在单词后面加上-er或是-ier, 而什么样的形容词要在前面加上more行了。
特技二:比较的修饰
如果你在回答此类问题时,能有意识地使用一些词汇或是短语来修饰比较的程度,那你比其他考生更容易打动考官的心了,比如下面的几个例句:
1. Eating at home is far cheaper than eating out.
2. Travelling with others is a lot more fun than traveling on your own.
3. Going to a concert live is way more exciting than watching one on TV.
4. The pace of life in cities is quite a lot faster than the countryside.
5. Life in the countryside is quite a bit more laid-back than life in the city.
6. Swimming in the sea is considerably more dangerous than swimming in a pool.
标注出来的词汇是用来表示比较的程度,除了我们常见的表达“much”, 这些用法能让你的雅思口语脱颖而出!而如果两者对比的效果不是很强烈,我们可以用到以下的表达:
1. Studying with others is a bit more enjoyable than studying on your own.
2. Traveling by coach is slightly more expensive than traveling by train.
3. Newspapers are relatively more informative than magazines.
4. Photos of people are generally a bit more interesting to look at than photos of scenery.
从以上的例子我们可以看出副词的之处了。用slightly, relatively这样的副词来表示轻微的对比也正是体现了口语表达讲究细节化,具体化!另外,如果大厌倦了经常用”more”来进行比较,我们还可以尝去用”less”来替换,增强表达的多样性,比如下面的四个例句:
1. Watching a concert at home is a lot less fun than going to one live.
2. Life is the countryside is generally less stressful than life in the city.
3. Watching a concert at home isn’t as fun as watching it on TV.
4. Mobile phones are generally not as expensive as they used to be.
希望上面的内容能给有需要的同学提供帮助,也希望同学们可以取得好成绩。欲想了解更多雅思口语的相关资讯,请点击咨询上海环球青藤官网。
雅思口语如何训练?

如何正确的使用雅思口语语法
语法是英语里面最重要的一个部分,正在备考雅思的同学们英语语法怎么样呢?接下来就和来看看如何正确的使用雅思口语语法?
一、语法掌握范围与准确性
【语法知识面】
写作:雅思写作考试需要学生熟练掌握简单句、并列句、复合句和并列复合句,同时着重非谓语动词的用法。部分考生作文表现为句式单调、简单句堆砌、遣词造句错误百出,导致语法、词汇、表达处处留有汉语的痕迹。还有部分考生为了吸引考官眼球,不顾自身薄弱的语法基础,片面追求句式的复杂性,令考官感到云里雾里,费尽脑汁也不得其解。
口语:雅思口语考试注重考察考生是否具备能正确运用一系列的时态以及包括五种基本句型和主从复合句在内的多种语法结构进行表达的能力。例如:考生是否掌握了不同的时态和语法结构?能否把这些时态和结构有效地运用到英语表达中?考官时时在留心短语和句子的组织及考生是否运用了正确的语序。考官尤其关注考生能运用大量的句子结构,即他想知道考生是否能运用简单结构和复杂结构,并在合适的时候交叉使用。
【语法准确性】: 语法的准确性考查的是考生对动词时态、名词单复数、主谓一致以及简单句和复合句等运用的准确性。毫无疑问,对于母语非英语的考生,有语法错误在所难免,考官不会太过苛求。他们所关注的是语法错误对理解所产生的影响,信息交流是否受到阻碍。如果考生的语法错误造成了理解障碍或影响了交流的顺畅进行,那就会在考官的评价中得到反映。其次,考官也会关注考生所犯的语法错误是否是习惯性的。习惯性的错误指:“总是重复犯同一个错误”,而非习惯性的错误则是偶尔疏忽大意而犯下的错误。考官同时会关注考生所犯错误是干扰性的还是非干扰性的。干扰性的错误会影响语句的意义,而非干扰性的错误则不会。
二、英语基本句型和时态的综合运用范例
【旁征博引】: 语法大家张道真先生说过,语法体现在词汇中,而词汇又受语法的制约,语法好比是骨架,而词汇好比是血肉,两者也是枝与叶的关系,要形成有机的肌体和茂盛的枝叶,必须把两者结合在一起。通过大量的调查,分析发现大多数分数低于6分的考生的致命伤是语法基础太差,一张口通篇充斥着低级小错;而5分学员只要在语法上下些工夫,很快就有大幅度提高。为了更高效地备考雅思口语部分,笔者根据多年的雅思培训经验,总结出一套行之有效的方法,令考生在短期内能有一石数鸟之功效。但希望考生抛弃急功近利的念头,认真研究写作和口语表达的异同和分析例句,对一些好的例句,最好能进行背诵或仿写,进而把经典精炼的语言结构运用在未来的口语考试中去。
【真题实例】: 如果要表达“非典型性肺炎(SARS)的袭击使我们的生意很萧条”这一意义时,就可以用下面四种不同的方式来表达:
Our business had suffered a lot through the SARS attack.
The effect upon our business of the SARS attack had been striking.
The SARS attack has affected our business to a remarkable extent.
The SARS attack has done our business much harm.
【指点迷津】: 如果要表达“在过去、现在或将来的某一时段里,曾经、已经或者正在发生前面所提到的‘非典型性肺炎(SARS)的袭击使我们的生意很萧条’”这一意义时,句型结构是否会发生变化呢?无疑,句型结构还是一样的,需要变化的只是谓语动词的时态。也就是说,只要调整谓语时态(常见的有九种时态,包括:一般过去时、过去进行时、过去完成时,一般现在时、现在进行时、现在完成时、一般将来时、将来进行时和将来完成时),就可以表达某一事物变化和发展的意义了。例如:
Our business is suffering a lot through the SARS attack.
Our business suffered a lot through the SARS attack last year.
Our business had been suffering a lot through the SARS attack by the end of last autumn.
Our business will suffer a lot with a SARS attack in the future.
Our business will be suffering a lot with a SARS attack.
由此可见,英语语言的精髓就是通过词序的不同组合形式(即句型结构)以及动词形式的屈折变化(即谓语时态)来表现事物发展变化的规律。
