雅思口語part2擴(kuò)展之WH細(xì)節(jié)描述法

雅思教學(xué)的過程中，當(dāng)問到學(xué)生雅思口語三個部分的考試哪個部分最難以對付時，大多數(shù)情況下雅思考生會認(rèn)為Part 2是最令人頭痛的部分。現(xiàn)在Part 2的話題越來越細(xì)化、刁鉆，雖然有1分鐘的準(zhǔn)備時間，但在雅思考試緊張的環(huán)境下，大部分學(xué)生都稱“腦子是空白的”，以導(dǎo)致不充分的準(zhǔn)備讓1-2分鐘的描述變得非常的慘白，無奈收尾，給雅思考官的感覺始終印象不深刻，無法達(dá)到通過細(xì)致的描述想親自嘗試的意愿。

通過分析學(xué)生Part2的回答范例，發(fā)現(xiàn)不少同學(xué)要么僅將話題卡中給的問題提示作以簡單回答，要么使用較為明顯的模板回答方式---也就是老師常說的無關(guān)緊要的話，來填塞內(nèi)容上的空白。如”If I really have to choose a place to describe, I’d like to tell you that …. issuch the place.” 這也是中國學(xué)生雅思口語在40個國家和地區(qū)墊底的原因之一。在這篇文章中，將總結(jié)出雅思口語Part 2描述題的拓展策略。

WH細(xì)節(jié)描述法

當(dāng)考生在面對話題無從下手時，可以利用 ”WH Questions”來引導(dǎo)思路的拓展，包括 “what, when, where, who(whom),why, how (how exactly, how often, how long, how much, how many)”。

例如，Describe a restaurant or cafe you like. 首先須明確what(theBookworm)，when(some five years ago), where (down the south ofChengdu)，who(foreigners for most of time);其次是整個描述的重點(diǎn)why(comfortable, pleasant,intimate )，how exactly (detailed description of being comfortable, pleasant, andintimate)，how often(once a month…)，how much(30-40 yuan on average perperson)，how many(3 in Whole China)。

但是，需要注意的是，在回答中，不可機(jī)械地按照每一個WH來作答，否則描述同樣會非常死板乏味，即需要靈活自然過渡每一個WH。

Sample answer：The Bookworm is my favorite cafe in this city, which is about15 minutes drive from the Tianfu Square down the south, and unlike other fancycafes in the downtown, it sits in a quiet surrounding. The Bookworm was born 5years ago with the help of a journalist, who soon became the business partnerand co-owner of Chengdu Bookworm. During these years, it’s been popular andwelcomed by almost every foreigner in Chengdu. I guess it’s probably because thecafe is really the place that can make them feel at home, ranging from the food,coffee, inside decoration, and those books written and published from theircountry.

The Bookworm creates a warm and intimate atmosphere, offering its customershome style food and drink. When you get annoyed from a trouble in study or atwork, having a rest at Bookworm will be the very pleasant thing to chill out.The greatest part is the live music every Friday night at which you can enjoythe best jazz and blues. There are three Bookworms in China, Beijing has thirst, and Chengdu and Suzhou follow the step, therore if you‘re taking a tripto Beijing or Suzhou, you can still have the opportunity to enjoy the nicelittle cafe. I like the cafe, for it’s the place where I can relax, eat, drink,read and enjoy music.
