許多雅思考生在口語考試時(shí)經(jīng)常會(huì)說不長(zhǎng)，從而造成了分?jǐn)?shù)打不高。造成答案過短原因之一就是“只回答”考官問的問題。而是事實(shí)上，考官提問的目的并不“只想聽”問題的答案。在基本答案的基礎(chǔ)上，考生們需要主動(dòng)給出更多額外信息，因?yàn)榭脊傧肼牭礁?ldquo;語言能力”的展示。
1. 5WH+ How Often
這個(gè)方法基本就是“自問自答”，把與核心內(nèi)容相關(guān)的各方面信息主動(dòng)提供給考官，然后連綴成完整的答案。下面我們來看一下part1和part2的一些真題演示。
Part 1真題：Have you travelled recently?
思路演示1 ：Yes, I have. (Direct answer)Last month(when) I went to Hong Kong(where) with my parents(who). We had a great time at the Disney Land and went shopping，too.(what)
思路演示2： No，I haven’t(Direct answer). I’m been busy with my studies(why).But after the exam(when), my parents and I(who)are going to Hong Kong and we would like to go to Disney Land and go shopping, too. (what)
Part 2真題：Describe a library that you have used.
You should say:
where it was
what type of library it was
what you used the library for
what you liked and /or disliked about this library
and explain how useful it was for your studies or research.
思路演示：“where it was”: on campus(Direct answer)
(Where)： It was next to our teaching building of English Department
(When) : It was built 50 years ago when our school was established.
(Who) : Most of the students liked to go there as well as the teachers
(How often): I almost went there everyday especially around exam time.
我們可以看到，這個(gè)方法簡(jiǎn)單易行，是拓展思路最基本的方法，只要具備基本的語法功底就可以輕松做到。但在part2中筆者建議考生們不要使用“過量”，因?yàn)閜art2有嚴(yán)格的時(shí)間限制，如果每一條point都補(bǔ)充很詳細(xì)的信息很有可能會(huì)遺漏卡片上的重要信息，甚至?xí)尶脊儆X得你“跑題”，所以適可而止就可以了。
2. examples
在基本答案之后，考生可主動(dòng)引入例子。我們先來看一下常見真題的演示：
Part 1 真題： What's your favourite type of music?
思路演示： Well，I’m a big fan of Modern Popular Music(Direct answer), you know, like Hip-Pop, Rap, Rhythm and Blues , Rock ‘n roll, things like that…
Part 3 真題：What kinds of films do people in China like to watch?
思路演示：Well, they watch a broad range of movies, in fact(Direct answer). For instance, men prefer Action &Adventure , Martial Arts and Romantic Comedy. But women are more into Romance and Romantic Comedy. And children are quite interested in Science Fiction and Animated Cartoons…
你會(huì)發(fā)現(xiàn)，如果你對(duì)所涉及話題比較熟悉，就應(yīng)該主動(dòng)找機(jī)會(huì)采取舉例子的方法，把之前積累的詞匯作為“examples”展示出來，這是展示“vocabulary”的能力，化被動(dòng)為主動(dòng)向考官拿分的好方法。
3. feelings and opinions
我們都知道在口語part1和part2中問題都是圍繞考生的personal details來設(shè)置的，所以可隨時(shí)加入自己的感受與觀點(diǎn)，我們先來看一下常見的真題的演示：
Part 2真題：Describe a teacher who has greatly influenced you in your education.
You should say:
where you met them
what subject they taught
what was special about them
and explain why this person influenced you so much.
思路演示：“what subject they taught”
He taught us maths in the second year of middle school. Well, I have to say that, before I had Mr. Chen as my teacher, maths had always been so boring and difficult to me that I always slept during class, it was my nightmare, you know. And I guess that is why I didn’t like him at the beginning…
通過以上的例子我們可以看到，在表達(dá)中隨時(shí)加入感受與觀點(diǎn)，不僅可以輕松充實(shí)卡片的內(nèi)容，而且可以使內(nèi)容更加生動(dòng)和個(gè)性化，避免給考官留下呆板無趣的印象，對(duì)最終的分?jǐn)?shù)有很積極的影響。
