雅思口語進階之轉(zhuǎn)變空話套話（廣州朗閣雅思學(xué)校 吳微微） 　　在與學(xué)生的交流中，廣州朗閣雅思學(xué)校老師時常能聽到很多對特定問題的固定回答,，例如說Why do people like listening to music? 回答的點通常是reduce pressure/ relaxation/ kill time,。又如What is the importance of learning a second language? 學(xué)生通常會說better to communicate層面的話。像這樣的情況還有很多,，private cars通常大家能想到convenience; doing housework的普遍答案是independent; doing sports的慣有觀點一般是build up our body. 　　對于雅思口語的各大類話題,，似乎每一個考生心目中都已經(jīng)形成了自己的標準答案。但是當(dāng)真正考試的時候,，考官還會不停地要問why, 要我們再舉例,，再具體說明，這可難倒了大片雅思大軍,，直至對西方的思維方式感到抓狂,。其實，用中式思維也是一樣的,，放松身心,，強身健體，方便快捷,，獨立自主都是一些比較“空”的話,，考官當(dāng)然不會喜歡這樣的鏤空回答。 　　當(dāng)然從考生角度出發(fā),，廣州朗閣雅思學(xué)校老師也很能理解大家的慣有想法:能用英語流利而完整地表達一定的觀點,，我們覺得我們已經(jīng)成功了。但其實這個只是一個好的開頭,，這只是我們在通往成功的路上剛剛邁出的第一步,。也就是說，我們只給出了自己答題的方向和立足點,，沿路的風(fēng)景如何,，大家就一無所知了。 　　那應(yīng)該如何從我們選定的方向出發(fā)，把表達的內(nèi)容由“空”變“實”呢,？這里廣州朗閣雅思學(xué)校給大家的建議是這樣的,，我們可以從optimize personal experience（優(yōu)化自身經(jīng)歷）出發(fā)，也就是把觀點聯(lián)系自身實際,，把抽象觀點變實,。以下廣州朗閣雅思學(xué)校老師將主要給大家介紹三類話題的個人經(jīng)歷優(yōu)化法回答。 　　一,、音樂類 　　Q: Why do people like listening to music? 　　大家都喜歡音樂,，這個無可置疑。喜歡音樂確實是因為reduce pressure/ relaxation/ kill time這樣一些休閑放松作用,。那我們?yōu)槭裁葱枰獪p壓放松呢,？ 　　As a graduating student, I meet loads of deadlines from the assignments of the teachers. Meanwhile, it is really a tough time that I have to both preparing for my resume and go to different places to take the interview. 　　又要完成各個學(xué)期任務(wù)，還要準備簡歷,，趕場面試壓力確實很大,。這應(yīng)該是每個畢業(yè)生在畢業(yè)年都會遇到的情況，確實需要音樂,。 　　抽象點+個人經(jīng)歷,，那我們的答案就可以是這樣的: 　　Well, I suppose that most of the people like listening to music cause it is a real good way to relax and reduce pressure. You know, as a graduating student, recently, I meet loads of deadlines from the assignments of the teachers. Meanwhile, it is really a tough time that I have to both preparing for my resume and rushing to different places to take the interview. Music, during the period, is a real good antidote to my stress and tight schedule. I think most of the people share the same feeling with me. 　　放入自己的個人經(jīng)歷，再來回答問題,，就比較容易理解什么是真正的壓力,，什么是所謂的放松減壓了。 　　二,、語言類 　　Q:What is the importance of learning a second language? 　　確實,，語言能讓我們直接想到的方面就是communication。那如何把communication和自己的實際經(jīng)歷聯(lián)系起來去豐富我們的對話,，讓考官感受到語言對個人的好處呢,？ 　　It is likely that, after mastering a second language, I am able to find a decent job easily in the international corporations. The reason is that I probably can be more competitive among all the candidates. 　　作為求職個體而言，如果能掌握好第二外語,，相對來說去面試國際大公司的競爭力會強一些,，這樣不就是交流給我們帶來的好處嗎？ 　　因此,，對于上述問題,，我們可以整合成這樣的一個答案: 　　Actually, learning a second language is of great importance, especially for the people who are hunting for a job, of course, including myself. It is likely that, after mastering a second language, I am able to find a decent job easily in the international corporations. The reason is that I probably can be more competitive among all the candidates. So this is what I mean the advantage of learning a second language. 　　更好的交流對你來說的作用是什么？對我而言,，一門好的二外確實可以在找工作上幫到我很多,，這就是我所謂的語言重要性。 　　三,、交通類 　　Q: Why do you want to own a car? 　　想要私家車,，原因很簡單,，就是因為很方便？何為方便,？這個太抽象了,，是時間、還是線路,、或者是使用上呢,？總是得給聽者一個具體的方向吧。 　　Actually, I live far away from my work place. Every day, it will take me roughly one hour and a half to go to my work place. Unfortunately, I always miss the early bus and be late for my work. If I could own a car, I do not have to wait for the bus; instead, I am able to go directly to my destination. 　　這個也是廣州朗閣雅思學(xué)校老師的真實經(jīng)歷,，一說到真實經(jīng)歷,，就不會再感覺自己沒什么可說了，一肚子都是苦水,，很能讓對方理解你的感情,。 　　那把convenience和personal experience結(jié)合起來，我們就可以說得更具體點了: 　　I suppose that owning a private car will bring lots of convenience to my life. Actually, I live far away from my work place. Every day, it will take me roughly one hour and a half to go to my work place. Unfortunately, I always miss the early bus and be late for my work. If I could own a car, I do not have to wait for the bus; instead, I am able to go directly to my destination. I bet life will be easier than now. 　　Convenience是什么,？就是不用等早班車，能夠直接去目的地啊,，這樣上班生活就方便很多了,。 　　三大類話題到此已經(jīng)介紹完畢。大家會不會對于上述的問題也有一些共鳴呢,？如果有,，趕緊拿起手中的雅思材料，加入自己的個人經(jīng)歷,。感受一下,，自己的表達是否比以前更加自然、流利了呢,？希望此文對大家回答雅思口語第一和第三部分的問題會有一定的幫助,。
