本场加考以旧题为主,在此笔者搜集了各地区口语考试真题并辅以简单分析供烤鸭参考。
真题回放Part 1
第一部分还是如常规首先询问个人信息做confirmation,除了必考话题name, work & study, hometown, hobby & spare time, 本次还有一些高频话题: subject, weather, relationship with your neighbour, magazine,community environment, movie. e.g.:
1. Major + Job:
-- Are you working or studying? -- What is your major? --Why did you choose it?
2. neighbors
-- Do you get along with your neighbors? -- What are the rules that you get along with your neighbors? --Do you think it is important to have good relationship with neighbors? -- Do you prefer young people to be your neighbor or old people?
3. weather
-- What is the typical weather in China ? -- What is the climate like in your hometown? -- Which season do you like best? Why?
4. movies
-- What types of films do you like? --What types of films do you dislike?
-- Do you like to watch films in the cinema or at home?
烤鸭们需对于以上必考及高频话题予以充分准备,逐一进行演练,整理搜集会发现题目几乎就集中在几个方面,万变不离其宗。随后就是对高频考题进行构思准备了,请口语能力一般的考生务必准备,不可忽略。只有提前准备才能在考试中少犯错,但要注意答案一定不能千篇一律,准备的时候要注意个性化,考官喜欢细节!请大家在第一部分充分准备提供够“雅思”的答案来给考官留下一个深刻的好印象。

点评:这次part 2的考题中,物品和事件题考得较多,但基本都是一些较为熟悉的考题,与年初的考题极为接近,换汤不换药,总体难度不大。下面我以本次题中非常经典的old man为例讲解part 2的答题思路。
老人话题是从10年以来几乎每次考试都出现的经典考题,具体题目的措辞可能不尽相同,如an old person you respect, an old man influenced you, or the oldest person you know,因此拿到话题卡后要仔细审题,考虑套用,而第三部分通常围绕老人和老龄化问题展开。
模板:T+S+C
* T: topic sentence. 一句话直接点题, 如:The old person that I know and admire is my grandfather. He is actually very close to me. When I was young, my father was away a lot in the army and my grandfather took on the role of my father。
* S: supporting ideas. 根据题目中的关键词依次扩展描述,如:He is a very kind gentleman. He is a simple man in that he likes to socialize and drink with his friends at home. He is a carpenter by trade, and one time I was able to work with him when my father askd him to put a floor in our house. Once when I was going on a train trip, he gave me a whole carton of a special kind of candy that I liked. 具体的细节事例描述,随后可加入评价:I really love my grandfather and I believe that he loves me as well. He has taught me a lot about just being happy with the things that I have to do, and also to take time to enjoy life. I think that I get some of my athletic ability from him as he knows Kung fu. I haven’t seen my grandfather for a few years, but I know that he is doing well and I know that he will be happy to see me when I go to visit him. I believe that he grew up in a pretty rough time here in China. Things were a lot more difficult than they are now, but through it all he always maintained a happy outlook on life. I would like to grow up and be like him in some ways, I wouldn’t say that he is perfect in any way, but then who is?
* C: conclusion. 简单总结,使论述更加完整。如 Therefore I consider my grandfather as my idol。
总结:part2实际上就是一到两分钟的口头作文。所以论述框架必须十分清晰, 按TSC的模式展开,使论述更加严密完整有逻辑才是高分的保证,考生应充分进行准备,进行话题覆盖,练习话题选择性套用,其实老人题几乎可以套用所有的人物题哦!注意在描述之余进行适当的归纳总结是回答描述题的最高境界。
其实在真实的考试中two-way体现得并不是很明显,虽然理论上该部分的问题是由第二部分的描述内容派生而来,但这些问题灵活性大且有深度,考生需搜集近一个月考题逐个锻炼口语思维,积累常用examples and details,才能真正做到“以不变应万变”,有着四两拨千斤的奇效。
