2017雅思考試口語解析四

　　Do you like to watch the sky?

　　Do you prefer the sky during the day or at night?

　　Have you learnt any courses about stars or planets?

　　Where is a good place to watch stars?

　　這是一個(gè)比較抽象的話題

　　所以我們總會(huì)覺得無話可說

　　其實(shí)一旦大家能夠?qū)⑦@個(gè)抽象的話題具象化

　　會(huì)發(fā)現(xiàn)其實(shí)有很多能擴(kuò)展的內(nèi)容

　　1. Do you like to watch the sky?

　　你喜歡仰望天空嗎? 對于這樣一個(gè)yes/no 的問題，一個(gè)口語答題的常識(shí)就是千萬不要給出yes/ no，后續(xù)的語言支撐才是重點(diǎn)。

　　喜歡看天空，喜歡什么時(shí)候看天空when I got nothing to do or have something stuck in my mind，在天空中你可以看到什么，crystal clear blue，clouds moving in an extremely subtle way，sometimes if I’m lucky，birds fly through in crowds 看天空時(shí)候你的感覺是怎樣的it’s the most peaceful moment then get wandering . 對于霧霾比較嚴(yán)重的地區(qū)，還可以跟以前對比一下。內(nèi)容的豐富度就會(huì)大大增加。

　　Example：

　　Well, to be honest, I used to love looking up at the sky all the time. When I had my mind stuck in somewhere or simply got bored, I would go out to a roof or somewhere I can quietly enjoy the crystal clear blue sky, with the clouds moving subtlety, sometimes if I’m lucky, I can also see birds flying through in crowds. It was the most peaceful moment and perfect for wandering with the breezes. But now with the fog and haze, there’s no way I can do that again.

　　2.Do you prefer the sky during the day or at night?

　　這是一道典型的對比類題目，這類的題目同學(xué)們首先還是要靈活熟練運(yùn)用可以表述比較的語言： 比較級的用法more / less than , as ... as ,prefer 的名詞性轉(zhuǎn)變preference等。

　　其實(shí)本題的答題方向比較沒有所謂，無論選擇更喜歡白天或者黑夜，或者居中都可以。但切記不要選擇其一而不表述另一方面。難點(diǎn)是找出可以對比描述的方向，比如白天因?yàn)橛刑�陽更加明亮而且溫暖so much brighter and warmer because of the sun，晚上有星星，更加靜謐tranquil。接下來的sample answer中并沒有給出一個(gè)明確的選擇。

　　Actually, I don’t have any particular preference over this since they both got unique features. In the daytime, it’s so much brighter and warmer because of the sun, so it is more comfortable to have the sunbath while watching the sky. But it is not as tranquil or fascinating as it is in the evening with all those shinning stars blinking towards me.

　　3.Have you learnt any courses about stars or planets?

　　這是一道個(gè)人經(jīng)歷的題目，很多學(xué)生會(huì)陷入自己真實(shí)情況的困境，自己并無這方面太多的知識(shí)。其實(shí)雅思官方指導(dǎo)視頻里面也明確的有說，編答案也是無可厚非的，畢竟考察項(xiàng)是同學(xué)們的英語表達(dá)水平，而并非是大家的知識(shí)量。當(dāng)然如果同學(xué)們本身對星球星體這方面了解甚多，那就趕緊發(fā)揮你的腦容量小宇宙吧。

　　大家中學(xué)時(shí)期都是學(xué)過地理的，geography ，只不過地理上的只是簡單的introduction，入門水平;此處可以和大家的實(shí)際情況相結(jié)合，如果是大學(xué)生或者高中的理科生，可以說很多都不記得了;但是大家平時(shí)還是會(huì)看一下這方面的新聞，最常見的就是流星雨。還有女生們比較了解的星座方面，往這個(gè)方向說會(huì)熟悉很多。

　　I kind of have. I memorized a range of introductions in my geography class. Unfortunately, I don’t think I can recall any of those detailed information any more. But I do read or hear some news mainly about the where to get the best views of the "shooting stars" or things like this quite often. And almost every girl I know never stops gossiping about constellation, such as who is a typical Virgo or how can one get along well with a narcissistic Sagittarius. This is pretty much all I know about the stars.

　　4.Where is a good place to watch stars?

　　這是一個(gè)信息羅列題目，羅列的是可以看星星的地點(diǎn)。

　　此類題目很多學(xué)生容易上來就給一大堆地點(diǎn)，但卻忽略了將內(nèi)容做一個(gè)分類，因此喪失了語言長度和難度上的加分。 而且既然是a good place，未必非要給出一個(gè)特定的地址，可以給一個(gè)分類，給出具體的描述。 地點(diǎn)可以分為市區(qū)的地點(diǎn)urban areas和郊區(qū)農(nóng)村 suburban district or country side. 后續(xù)再描述具體的地方：比如the roof of the skyscrapers ，Closest place to the sky. 說明這些地方看星星的好處和壞處。

　　當(dāng)然最開始的部分還是要給出一個(gè)總的回應(yīng)。

　　Well, I guess it depends greatly on where one live. I mean, for someone lives in the suburban district or country side, with less lights and average height of the house, positions for a better view may not matter that much. However, for one form urban areas, it would be excellent to stand on the roof of a skyscraper or get in a planetarium or museum where a telescope is set. Unfortunately, I have never tried this.
