雅思口语抽象话题备考方案及思路解析
雅思口语抽象话题特点
我们一般在口语备考前会给话题分类,按照事件、人物、物品、媒体、环境、科技等话题分类后再进行口语话题准备。事件、物品这类话题考生都不会惧怕,因为有话可说,描述过程中可以加上自己的实际经验,但是说到具体新闻,图书作品的时候,话题过于抽象时,考生很难讲话题具象化。
小站雅思君觉得,这是考生陷入了话题的误区,将抽象话题具象化不是不可能的,拿到一个话题,考生首先要想的是可以从哪些具体的角度来描述这个话题,而不是只关注话题某些关键词。
雅思口语抽象话题:part2举例及分析
举一个具体的口语例子:最近看的一个喜剧节目
节目要怎么说才生动?演员的动作表情吗?具体台词?还是具体的人?考生的思路要打开,首先在雅思口语评分标准中,并没有强调考生的话题生动与否,虽然话题能否引起考官兴趣确实在一定程度上影响考生的分数。
小站雅思君建议考生描述话题可以着重在具体环节:基础的节目名称,节目播放平台,播出时间,主持人,观众人群及效果反响等,这样话题一描述就很具体,话题内容就很丰富。当然,前提是大家在准备这个话题的时候就有熟悉的节目,比如“吐槽大会”。如果考生一上来就说这个喜剧节目搞笑有趣,反而变成了为了说而说,考官无法直观感受,也无法感受到“有趣”。
具体的节目喜剧效果,这时候考验的是考生的考前准备工作了,抽象的内容如何变得生动,考生只需摘取这个节目的某一个方面放大说,比如“吐槽大会”请嘉宾,那么就会说到自己吐槽自己,吐槽对手,自黑,那么实际上是具有讽刺意义的,也体现了嘉宾们个人的人格魅力,面对网络暴力如何幽默化解等等,来提升这个话题的层次。
最后可以说说自己为什么喜欢看这个节目,比如迎合了90后丧文化,缓解压力等等。
整个话题这样一看,是不是丰富很多,所以备考过程中脑洞要大,要落到实际,避重就轻,自己的短板不要暴露出来。
2020年9-12月雅思口语part2&3答案:和老朋友接触的经历
Describe a time you got into contact with an old friend.
You should say:
Who he or she is
When and where you met
What you talked about
And explain how you felt about this experience
This is a really good question for me, because I’ve a number of stories about this topic! I’ll tell you why: I’m a really social person, and I also went to school, primary and secondary school, before the age of WeChat and social media, so I actually remember the days when you basically had to visit your friends, or phone their parents to ask them if they were coming out to play… Anyway, so as the years went by we lost touch with a lot of friends, and only really got back in touch with them because of the introduction of social media in mainstream society. The one I was especially pleased about getting back in contact with was a girl called Xiao Shuang, she was a petite, pretty, quiet, but super-intelligent girl who was most certainly my best friend for many years in school. She had an amazing sense of humour too, and I’ll never forget her jokes and pranks in class. Anyway, we got in touch, exchanged contact details, and met in person in Beijing. It was great to see how much she had grown up and changed, although she maintained the same sense of humour and attitude to life as before. We met around the Lama temple area of Beijing, and we went to drink a coffee in one of cute coffee shops in a street called Wu Dao Ying. The café we chose to meet in was dedicated to cats! Yes, there are lots of cats in this café – real cats as well as pictures and ornaments of cats. We talked about our studies, life now, life then, how things have changed, and our aspirations for the future. I found it particularly interesting to discuss with her how she had changed, how her interests in life had developed and the challenges she had faced over the years when we had been out of touch with each other. It made me realise that I should make more effort to get in touch with more old friends from the past – and that it’s definitely worth it. We learn a lot from sharing experiences with other people and keeping in touch with people we knew in childhood. So, all in all meeting Xiao Shuang after all these years was a brilliant experience and I would strongly recommend that anyone make every effort to get back in touch with old school friends.
Part 3
1. Why do people lose contact with their friends after graduation?
People lose contact with some friends for a variety of reasons. One reason is that their paths in life diverge and their lives go in different directions. They lose common interests and goals, and life moves on, their ambitions change and their priorities differ. This is not always the case, but sometimes is what happens, often gradually over time. It’s a common reason anyway. Another reason might be that you end up losing your friends’ contact details, though today this is less common because people are often connected quite extensively with many friends and friends of friends via various online social media accounts.
2. How does modern technology influence friendship?
Modern technology influences friendships by enabling people to keep in touch all the time with friends and families, enabling people to see each other’s daily updates on things like WeChat Moments and other social utilities and platforms, and also enabling people to make new friends through online friends and dating sites. Also, there are a lot of online forums where people can post comments, opinions, ideas and share their experiences around specific or general topics and themes – often those that get along or share similar views on these forums, can make friends with each other and then develop those friendships. So, modern technology, mostly internet-based technology and software, has a huge impact on friendships and relationships. From enabling people to nurture existing friendships, to helping people make new friends.
3. Do you think people’s relationship with friends will change when they get older?
I think that friendships do evolve and change over time, and as we get older we have slightly different relationships with our friends, yes. It really depends. One example might be that as people get older maybe they have less time to spend with friends, and more responsibilities, so they might stay in touch with less friends, or be more selective about the friends they do spend time with. Children tend to play with a wider variety of friends, also because they are less discerning and have less prejudices. As we get older we take stronger likes and dislikes to people and also have less time for people who we might not immediately get along with or share common ground with. Evolving friendships are different too – adults who really want to maintain friendships will make efforts to develop them and be emotionally supportive of friends, and as the years go by, that can make friendships stronger, and last into old age. These are arguably the most valuable friendships.
4. Some people believe that friendship is more important to young people compared with old people. What do you think of it?
Yes, I think this is the case. Young people are very keen to play and go out with friends, and are more energetic and active. As I mentioned earlier, they are also perhaps less discerning about who they choose as friends and maybe have a wider variety of friends with varied interests. I think older people have less energy for going out socializing or meeting new people, and they are more comfortable with family, or hanging around with the few friends that they have had for many years. Obviously, it also depends on the personality of the individual – some people, regardless of age, are simply more social and extrovert than others, and more keen to keep friendships going and make new friends, whilst others prefer a calmer, more introvert lifestyle at home, with family, or spending a lot of time alone and without the responsibility of dealing with multiple friendships and the demands they can bring with them.
2020年9-12月雅思口语part2&3答案:第一次外语和别人交谈
Describe a time when you first talked to others in a foreign language.
You should say:
When this happened
Who you talked to
What you talked about
And explain how you felt about this experience
The time I remember quite clearly when I spoke in a foreign language for the first time properly was when I was introduced to a new foreign teacher in university. I had, to be honest, spoken English, beforehand, but this was the first “real” time I had had a conversation with a native speaker, so I’d like to talk about this. I recall that she was quite friendly and supportive and spent the entire first class giving us lots of opportunities to speak and talk about ourselves, our ambitions, our family and all sorts of things like this – personal things. I found this quite exciting in a way, although I was quite nervous because I was not used to her pronunciation and so I had to concentrate to listen. But I was pleasantly surprised at how much English I could speak when I was asked questions, and the more I spoke the more I felt confident about speaking more! She then put us in groups of four other students and we had little tasks to complete – questions and answers, oral English tasks. She came round to each table and asked us about our answers and chatted to us more. I must say that I quite enjoyed this. Although it wasn’t really any different to what my Chinese teachers had done in English lessons, I found it somehow more exciting because it was a native speaker. It was like an opportunity to show and test my language skills with someone who really did speak that language as their first language and I really liked this chance. From this day onwards I became a lot more confident in speaking English, and I often found this teacher in her breaktimes and made an effort to hang out with her a bit, spend a bit of time drinking tea with her, showing her the local sights, and using this opportunity to practice my language skills. So, I will always remember this first day when I got to speak English with this native speaker, and thereafter becoming good friends with her. So, all in all, I felt great about this whole experience.
Part3
1. What difficulties do young people in your country have in learning foreign languages?
Most study pretty hard and are good at grammar and language in the context of tests, written tests, reading tests, listening tests, for example. But they find the most difficulty in speaking in natural situations.
2. Why do you think some people are very enthusiastic about learning another language and other children are totally uninterested?
Well, some people believe this because it’s basically true! It’s a lot easier to learn to speak than to write in a foreign language. This is partly because if you are writing you usually have to control your grammar a lot more strictly than if you are speaking. Sentences in spoken language are usually shorter, less complex, and involve less complicated vocabulary. Also, if you are writing in a language you usually have to write more formally, and use a different register of vocabulary than if you are merely speaking. Written language is often slightly more formal, too, which again, involves a richer and higher range of vocabulary and lexical use than if you are just having a spoken conversation. So, in general, there are a few reasons why people are correct in saying that it is more difficult to write in another language than speak that language.
3. Is it easier for people to learn a new language when they are young or when they get older?
Definitely when they are younger! At least that is usually the case. Young people have more energy, more enthusiasm and generally pick up new things faster. It’s as simple as that really. At least most of the time. However, there are some older people who also learn fast, because they have previous experience they can build on.
