雅思口语的Part 3在雅思备考中,是各位烤鸭很头痛的一部分,因为虽然有机经题目可以用来练习,但是参考价值不如Part 1和Part 2的大,雅思考官提问的灵活度比较高,所以常常让我们无从下手。但是通过研究雅思考官发问的题目类型,我们还是可以比较有针对性的进行雅思备考。
下面就以3种雅思考官比较常考的问题类型为例(不只限于这三种哇),来看看常用的雅思口语答题策略。
我们都比较清楚,Part 3的题目是根据Part 2的话题发问的,所以如果第二部分考的是a long car journey you went on,那么第三部分可能问到大家的题目可能长成这样:
1. What’s the difference between men and women's preference on cars?
2. What will cars be like in the future?
3. Why do people like to have private cars?
第一题是典型的“比较”类型题,考官经常比较的维度还有“过去跟现在”“年轻人和老人”等。这种雅思口语题目的答法,基本上就是根据常识或者个人经验,给出一个相对合理的答案就OK了。不过一定要注意,可以根据自己或者身边人的经历作为素材组织答案,但在输出的过程中,一定要talk in general,不能说怎么怎么样。至于这道题目,我们只需思考车的几个方面,再对应上男女的喜好,就差不多了。没有所谓的“正确答案”,只要我们的回答符合常理,考官都是可以接受的。而且,要想打高分,答案的长度也得是有的,大家尽量朝着一分钟努力吧!
Sample Answer:
Well, I guess there are quite a few differences between men and women when it comes to getting a car. For starters, men pay more attention to the performance, so it might take them more time to decide which vehicle type and make they are supposed to buy, while women focus more on the appearance and convenience, so they might get themselves a cute compact, which is easy to drive and park. And also, about the color, both genders believe that the choice of color says a lot about themselves, like personality and taste, so traditionally, men prefer dark colors like black or dark blue, you know, to make them more professional and mature, but women, on the contrary, are more into light and bright colors. Oh, and men tend to consider the resale value of a car before they actually make the purchase, but I don’t think many women would do that.
So those are the differences I can think of.
第二题是典型的“in the future”预测未来题型,我们可以在Part 3看到好多这样的题目,例如:How do you think toys will change in the future? What do you imagine people’s houses will be like in the future? What will be the most popular jobs in the future? How do you imagine that art will be taught in the future? Do you think that cities will become noisier in the future? 等等。这种题目大家只需要注意一点,就是“时态”,要让大家预测未来的事情,所以will/be going to这种对未来做prediction的语法没事儿要用上啊!剩下的,大家随便意淫吧,因为未来的事情,谁知道呢,你说啥都是对的!
Sample Answer:
Well, if you ask me, the car of the future may look nothing like a car. I mean, the shape or appearance might differ dramatically from the cars we are driving now. Or maybe, they will become much cooler with even higher performance, just like Batman’s car or transformers. And also, it’s highly possible that self-driving cars will be on the market, so there doesn’t even have to be a steering wheel or pedals, which would definitely be good news for those who don’t know how to drive or have no sense of direction. On top of all that, I’m sure with the rapid development of technology, scientists will be able to come up with an environmentally friendly way to make the car more fuel efficient, you know, cars in the future might be powered by solar energy, water or even air, well, I’m just guessing.
第三题的题型是“why”,让大家解释原因。针对题目,我们需要想出尽可能多的方面来作答。不要求我们想出所有的理由,但是由于答案不能太短,所以只想出一点的话就不太能接受啦!我们还是可以从自己熟悉的领域下手,为什么自己买车,为什么身边的朋友们喜欢乘坐私家车,根据自己的经历,谈谈公共交通的弊端,然后别忘了换个主语,talk in general,基本上就够了。
Sample Answer:
Well, first of all, it’s about the convenience of being able to go where you want, and when you want. I mean, it’s like you are the master of your own schedule, although parking can be tricky sometimes. And they are more helpful when the weather is horrible, ‘cause waiting in the heavy rain or snow for the bus to come is really a nightmare for most people. Um… another good thing about having a private car is that you have a small spot of your own wherever you want it, especially when you are stuck in a traffic jam. Instead of waiting impatiently in a crowded bus or a taxi, you can choose to listen to the music you like in your car. So I guess those are the reasons as to why people prefer to get their own cars.
摸清考官的发问套路和喜好,Part 3就没有那么恐怖啦!各位烤鸭还可以自己总结,并且非常建议大家找小伙伴一起练习,因为毕竟two heads are better than one,集思广益,收获更多哦!
