备注:
•
这部分属于聊天性质,说话应尽量自然,简单,随意一些,
不可成段背诵从书上抄来的书面语。
•
one-word answer应避免。考生应首先对考官的问题做出回应,
然后再说上两三句话。
•
考官随时可能打断你,因为他必须控制考试的时间,所以你
不用担心,静静听下一个问题就是了。
Part 2 (3-4 minutes)
Describe someone you know who is good at cooking
You should say:
who this person is
how you know him or her
what kinds of food s/he cooks
and explain how (you think) this person became so good at cooking.
备注:
•
卡片由考官选择,不是考生自己选择。
•
在拿到卡片后,考生有一分钟思考准备时间。
•
考官会给你纸笔作笔记。
•
做笔记可以采取你喜欢的任何方式。
•
如果卡片看不懂,可以问考官,但考官可以不作答。
•
一分钟结束后,考官会告诉你可以开始讲了。
•
在你说话的过程中,考官只听不说。
•
你说完后,考官一般会接着问一两个后续问题,只需简单作答即可。
•
第二部分结束后,考官将收回卡片,笔和草稿纸。
Part 3 (4-5 minutes)
Subtopic 1: Chinese food and western food
How does western food like KFC impact (on) traditional Chinese food?
Do you think traditional Chinese food will be more popular in the future?
In your view, how is western food different from Chinese food?
Subtopic2: eating at home
In your country, do family members often eat at home together?
Do you think it important for people to eat at home?
Subtopic3: food safety
Is food safety a serious problem in your country?
Do schools and universities provide healthy food for students in your country?
备注:
•
这部分的考试模式和第一部分是一样的,一问一答。
•
这部分的问题不再是关于你个人的情况了,通常是一些常见的社会话题。
•
这部分属于讨论性质,所以考官很可能会接着你的话茬往下问,或者对你
的观点提出反驳。
•
这部分的问题是由第二部分决定的。如果第二部分你描述的是一首歌,那
么第三部分问的问题都会和音乐有关。
•
这部分不需要大家说多少,三四句话也就够了,就是提出自己的观点,论
证一两句,就结束了。当然,你要是有话说,那是多多益善。
•
这部分很多同学都会出现听不懂问题的情况,因为单词难度增加了,这时
候不要慌,你可以让考官给你解释,也可以让考官重复一遍问题,实在不
行了,就让考官问下一个问题。
•
这部分要表现得好点,没有一定的语言底子是不可能的,六分以下的同学
应多积累相关话题词汇。

不能达成有效沟通。难以听懂或者看懂英语。
1分 不懂英语

0分 考生缺席
缺乏评分依据。
(二)四个具体的评分依据
1. 流利度:
7分:多数问题能不假思索地进行回答,偶有停顿的地方,但不
会超过5秒钟。而且,考生出现停顿也主要是因为在思考
说什么,而不是在想某个词怎么说。
6分:在自己熟悉的领域能比较顺畅的交流,在不熟悉的领域会
出现较长时间的停顿。
5 分:只是在自己最熟悉的领域能展示一定的流利度,即:连续
说上几个句子。
流利度的本质:就是考生连续说话的能力:正常语速 + 正常停顿
2. 词汇:
7分:考生具备相当好的词汇广度,应此也基本准确到位。
6分:考生在自己熟悉的领域能展示一定的词汇广度,用词常用不
准确,不恰当的地方,但基本不影响理解。
5分:考生的能熟练使用的词汇,不管是量还是质都明显不足,经
常因为想不起某个词而停顿。而且,用词单调,过于简单。
3. 语法:
7分:考生能熟练使用各种常见语法结构,而且基本准确,在使用
复杂的语法结构时偶有错误。
6分:考生基本语法能较为熟练准确适用,偶有错误,但不影响交
流;能使用一些较为复杂的语法结构,如定语从句,但不是很
准确。
5分:考生即使在简单语法结构,如时态,人称单词,单复数等上
面也经常出错,有时甚至严重影响理解;基本不能使用复杂
语法结构。
4. 发音:
7分:考生的发音清晰,准确,丝毫不影响理解。
6分:考生的发音较为清晰,准确,有时有发错或不规范的现象。
5分:考生的发音经常出错,有时严重影响理解。
•
其实纠正发音是很值得去做的事,因为方向明确,见效快,通过练习说句子练发音就
更好了,既能练发音,还能学习单词,表达方式。
1.
In my view, eating at home is healthier cos you control what goes into the food.
2.
Eating at home is also a lot more economical. With just 20 RMB, you can cook a
decent meal at home, but i20 RMB is just enough to buy you only one dish in a
restaurant.
3.
Additionally, eating at home is much more hygienic. You know, the dining room
at home is a private place whereas a restaurant is a public place. If you eat in a
public place, you’re more likely to expose yourself to health risks, like
infectious diseases or whatever.
4.
I think it’s important for parents to share meals with their children on a regular
basis, whether at home or in a restaurant. It’s a great opportunity for
communication and strengthening family bonds.

(三)关于评分标准语音方面的调整。
雅思口语考试在2008年以前,在发音评分上只有2,4,6,
四个等级,现在改为1-9,九个等级,也就是发音方面评分进一步
细化,这对有发音优势的考生绝对是好消息。
(四)关于半分制
现在的口语评分会出现5.5,6.5,7.5的现象。
如果你在四个评分标准方面的得分分别是:
流利度:7; 词汇:6; 语法:5;
语音6
那么你的得分总分是24,再除以4,你的最后口语得分就是6分

本不变的,很好准备。
雅思口语第一部分永远的主体话题:
吃,穿,住,行,学习,工作,娱乐(音乐,电影,电视),运动,媒体,
网络,艺术(画画,乐器,艺术馆),送礼,生日,派对。
(二)雅思口语第一部分是怎么进行的?
雅思口语第一部分提问模式非常固定,考官主要是按照下面几种模式想考生提问:
1. Do you…?
2.Do people in your country do…?
3.What type of …do you like?
4.What type of …do you dislike?
5.What do you like about…?
6.What do you dislike about…?
7.What do you like to do +时间?
8.What do you dislike to do +时间?
9.Is it easy/difficult/convenient/safe/dangerous to do…?
10.When did you first do …?
11.Did you do…when you were a child?
12.When did you last do …? / Tell me about your last …experience?
13.When and where do you…?
14.Do you like do…alone or with friends?
15.Do you prefer A or B? Why?
16.Do you think it’s necessary/important for children/schools to do…?
17.What do you think about..?
18.What do you think is the benefit/advantage of …?
下面我们以最近经常出现的几个话题为例,看看考官是怎么提问的?
Cycling
--Is it popular to ride the bike in your country?
--Do you often ride the bike?
--Is it safe to ride the bike in your city?
--What do you think is the advantage of biking compared with other forms of transport?
Cooking
--Who cooks in your family?
--Do you like cooking? Why or why not?
--Do you think schools should provide cooking lessons for students?
Shopping
--Do you like shopping?
--Where do you like to go shopping?
--Do you like to go shopping alone or with friends?
--Do you prefer big shops or small ones? Why?
--Tell me about your last shopping experience.
Travel
--Do you like travelling?
--What places do you like to visit?
--Tell me about your last travel?
--What do you think is the benefit of travel?
从上面我们可以看出考官在提问时的九个提问方向:
一:你自己;
五:小孩
二:你们国家的普遍情况;
六:在学校学…重不重要;
三:你的小时候;
七:同类比较优缺点
四: 是最近一次;
八:…的好处
五:小孩;
九:为什么
(三)雅思口语第一部分的注意事项
1. 雅思口语第一部分的两大忌:
1)背诵答案
2)太多的简短答案(yes. No. I don’t know.)
2. 雅思口语第一部分的前奏
What’s you full name? or: Can you tell me your full name, please?
How shall I call you?
Can I see your ID card please?
3. 怎样在雅思口语第一部分给考官留下好的印象。
1)发音差的同学,应该把自己发得不好的音好好纠正一下。
2)语法不好的同学,应该好好学习一下一般过去时,现在完成时,现在
完成进行时,现在进行时和将来时;名词单复数;可数和不可数名词;
人称代词;主谓一致;形容词比较级最高级。
3)学习一些英语是母语的人喜欢用的的口语词和短语。
4)克服自己的紧张情绪,经常进行自问自答练习或找人对练。
5)不要试图说得太多,适当扩展一下就行了。
6)说话不要太快,同时和考官保持眼神接触。
4. 如何克服自己的表达方式过于简单,单调的问题。
很多同学得5分的一个主要原因就是表达方式过于简单,单调,如喜欢就
是like, 表达原因就是because, 说好处就是good for health, 描述地方就是
beautiful, 当然不是说这些词不好,关键是你从头到尾都用类似的词或短
语的话,给考官的信息就是你的语言不行,别忘了,雅思纯粹就是考语
言,就像普通话考试。
我给大家总结了几组大家很可能会用上的一些词和短语,基本都是中国
考生不是很熟悉的一些表达方式,希望能对大家有所帮助。
第一组:Yes, I do; No, I don’t 之外的其它情况
词或短句
1. Sure
2.That’s for sure

4. Definitely (not)

9. Well, obviously, …
10.Well, honestly…
11. Well, to tell you the truth…
12. Um, to be honest, …
13. As a matter of fact, …

guess so, cos…
15. Well, it really depends.
16. Well, it obviously varies from
person to person.
17. Well, it’s difficult to say, cos…
18. Not really/exactly
19. Not much.
注解
1-6 都是用来表示“当然,那是自然,这是可定的”之类的意
思。
7 意为“未必,不一定”
8-13 表示你要说的话可能和考官的期望不同或相反。
14 表示你对考官所问的内容不是很清楚,但你觉得是这样的。
15 表示你认为有几个可能的因素,而非一个。
16. 表示因人而异
17. 表示 “这个很难说的啦”。
18. 表示 “不完全是”

Cycling is a great way to get around, especially for short trips.
economical, eco-friendly and great exercise
bike-friendly, with excellent road conditions and bike lanes
Cycling could be dangerous in some parts of the city,
where the traffic is heavy and often messy.
So, cyclists have to watch out and stay alert all the time.
In China, bikes are mainly used as a means of transport.
Not many people ride the bike as a sport.
Sometimes, riding a bike is considered to be a symbol of having
no money.
I think the government should encourage people to bike more
instead of driving anywhere, for the sake of their health and also
the environment.

computer and Internet.
l From Monday to Friday, I watch very little TV, but on the weekend or
during holidays, I’m a bit of a couch potato.
l Well, actually, I’ve got no particular preference for TV shows. I just
flick through the channels and watch anything that attracts me.
l What I like most is entertainment shows, cos they’re really
entertaining. You know, after a hard day at work/school, a good
laugh is exactly what I need to relax.
l One of my favorites is an entertainment show called Happy Camp,
which is one of the best-liked shows among young people. Most of
my friends are loyal viewer of the show.
l One big attraction of the show is the hosts and hostesses. They’re
young, smart, cool, stylish, and amusing.
l Every time, they invite a celebrity in the showbiz to share their
success stories with the audience and also give a live performance.
l There’s applause and laughter all through the show. I just love the
atmosphere.
l Some TV shows are educational and entertaining, no doubt about it,
but on the other hand, watching too much TV makes one lazy both
physically and mentally, cos TV is passive pleasure.
l Watching TV is fun, but on the other hand, it can be totally timeconsuming.

books or catching a few flicks.
go for a drive in the countryside
The most popular weekend activities in China are shopping, playing
mahjong, singing Karaoke and playing on the computer.
I think weekends now are more interesting, cos there’s so much I
can do, watching TV, shopping, doing sport, singing, you name it,
whereas in my childhood, the only thing I did was just watching
cartoons.
I think weekends in my childhood are more interesting, cos I was
totally care-free, and I didn’t have much homework to do, so I could
spend most of my time playing with other children. We liked to play
some simply games like hide and seek, but they gave us enormous
pleasure, now, we had more things to do on the weekend, but they
don’t seem to have so much fun. And, as a student, I’m under the
constant pressure from exams. I’m not really happy.

I’ve got an ipod, which I take with me wherever I go, so I can have
the company of music all the time.

l Music is really important for me. I really cannot imagine my life
without music.
l Without music, my life would be so dull.
l For me, music is just like a loyal friend, who is always there
when you need him/her. He gives me comfort when I’m sad,
gives me passion when I’m high, and gives me company when
I’m lonely.
l Actually, I’ve got no particular preference for music. I just listen
to anything that’s pleasant to my ear. And in fact, what I listen to
really depends on my mood. Say, when I’m in a bad mood, I
usually choose something that’s slow and soothing, whereas
when I’m in a good mood, I prefer something fast and strong and
passionate.
l musical instrument/instrument
l the guitar/bass/clarinet/violin/cello/piano/flute/drum(s)/sax.
l traditional Chinese musical instrument, like Guzheng, which is a
string instrument, something like zither. It’s got about 20 strings,
I don’t know exactly how many, and you play it with both your
hands, the left hand plucking the strings and the right hand
touching the strings to control the pitch. It’s got a unique sound,
very beautiful.

and then I had to stop it because of the heavy study pressure.

imaginative and creative.
l Playing a musical instrument is a marvelous hobby that can continue
for a lifetime, and also it’s highly desirable skill.
l If you’re really good at playing an instrument, you can make a living
out of it if you like.
l And it’s a really useful social skill, like you can show it on a party to
entertain your friends, and you will be star of the party.
l And if you can play an instrument, you have a unique way of
expressing your feelings. Like, you can play music to express your
love to someone without actually say “I love you”. It’s special and
romantic. And it always works wonders.
l Learning to play a musical instrument takes time and energy, and lot
of money as well.
l I’m not very musical, so learning an instrument is really a tough job
for me.

fantasy novels, like Harry Porter
some on-line fantasy stuff
biographies/autobiographies of celebrities or successful CEOs or
entrepreneurs, or politicians.

best-sellers
Books that teach you how to become more attractive, how to become
successful and make big money, how to manage your money and
invest your money, and books about celebrities, they’re always the
best sellers.
I’m into historical stuff. I’m really curious about what happened in
the past. It always fascinates me.
I don’t read much in my free time.
I just do some light stuff, like newspapers and magazines.
And I also read some interesting news and blogs on the Internet
almost every day.
I’m in the habit of keeping a diary.
I’m never a good writer.
We had composition lessons at school, but they were just for exams.
I think good writers should first be an avid reader. If you don’t read
extensively, it’s impossible for you to write something good.

fan of veggies and fruits.
l I know it’s not a healthy habit, but I just cannot resist meat.
l I love fruits that are sweet, juicy and meaty, like water melon, and
oranges.
l Vegetables and fruits are low-calorie but highly nutritious, so they’re
well-liked by people, especially girls who want to lose weight.
l In China, we eat lots of veggies, cos they’re healthy/wholesome and
they’re cheap to buy. This is quite different from some western
countries where vegetables are more expensive than meat.
l And also veggies are ingredients for lots of dishes.
l Fruits and vegetables are high in vitamins, minerals and dietary fiber.
l And lots of them are helpful in preventing and curing diseases.
l And it’s very convenient to get fresh vegetables and fruits. There’s a
green grocer’s just outside my neighborhood, and there is an
agricultural market, which is just 5 minutes’ walk away. And we can
also get vegetables from the supermarket.

just follow the tour guide and you don’t have much freedom.
l Independent travel could be dangerous and more trouble but they’re
more exciting and enjoyable, cos you are free to make your own
decisions, and do what you really like to do.
l In China, the best-liked travel destinations are either places of great
natural beauty or historical importance. And more and more people
choose to travel overseas.
l Travel enriches our life cos we go to new places, see and do new
things and get new experiences.

everywhere is packed with tourists, and I really hate that.
l And also, transport is a big problem cos train tickers and air tickets
are hard to get, cos the demand is too big.
l During holidays, what I do most is get together with my friends and
have a good time, shopping, singing Karaoke, having a big dinner
together and chatting.

l And of course, I love to sleep during holidays, you know, to sleep as
long as I want, without anybody disturbing me. It’s awesome.
l What I hate to do most is of course having to work during holidays.
You know, everybody else is having a good time with their family or
friends and you’re working, which really makes me sad.
l I have lots of holidays, all the public holidays, like National Day and
May Day, plus two long vacations, the 2-month summer vacation and
one-month winter vacation, but the problem is that I have to spend
most of my holidays on the school stuff or taking extra lessons. That is
the last thing I want to do. I really hate it.
l Holidays are important, cos they give us the chance to slow down and
relax, and be with our family and close friends, and do something I
really want to do but don’t have the time to do, so I think holidays are
really important.

l take apart the computer and reassemble it
l If something is wrong with my computer, I can get help from the
Internet, you know, there are lots of websites providing professional
help about how to fix all kinds of computer problems.
l If it’s just a small problem, I can fix it myself, but it’s something
serious, I will get my cousin to fix it. He’s a computer specialist.
管理资源吧(www.glzy8.com),提供海量管理资料免费下载!
l I can use the computer quite well, but when it comes to fixing
computer problems, I’m totally hopeless.
l Too much game playing is of course a bad thing. It ruins/damages
your eyesight, harms your health, and affects your work/life.
l However, if you can control yourself and don’t overdo it, playing
games could be really fun. Some computer games are educational
and entertaining. Some are just entertaining, maybe, in a bit violent
or erotic way, but they’re great fun, no doubt about that. That’s why
so many people are crazy about playing computer games.
l All in all, playing computer games is no different from other forms
of entertainment. If we don’t do it too much, it would do us more
good than harm.

6. 雅思口语第一部分高分示范
我们以free time activities 为例:
What do you like to do in your free time?
--Definitely sleep. You see, right now, I’m working very hard to improve my English

have time, I love to catch some z’s or have a long sleep, which is the best
relaxation for me.
Anything else?

5. 如何利用一分钟准备时间:
强烈建议大家利用好这一分钟的时间进行快速构思,并在稿纸上写上关键词,这一
方面是让考官觉得你事先未经准备,而是预防 “忘记”现象,也就是构思的时候想
得
好好的,说的时候忘记了,为什么会忘呢,因为你说的时候是要看着考官的,不免
有些紧张,一紧张就什么也想不起来了。
所以大家在平时练习的时候,也请按照这种方式进行,就是凭借关键词进行架构,
同时按照卡片上的提示顺序一个一个往下描述即可,没有必要临时重新组织顺序。
而且,这回给考官一种印象:你实在临场发挥,这也是考官所希望看到的。
6. 如何让我的描述更加有序:
大家知道,在Part Two, 大家需要独自说1-2分钟,怎样才能让考官很容易就能知道
你每一步都要想说什么呢?我个人的建议是大家借用一些结构性的句子:
在开头,开门见山:I’d like to talk about…
回答第一个问题:To begin with, I’ll talk about … (where it is)
回答第二个问题:Then as to… (what it looks like)
回答第三个问题:Now let’s look at (what it sells)
管理资源吧(www.glzy8.com),提供海量管理资料免费下载!
回答最后一个问题:And finally I’d like to explain to you (why I like the place).
很多题目都可以用这些句子进行架构。
当然了,大家也不要太机械了,有的题目完全可以以你自己喜欢的方式进行架构,
关键是要用的自然。
7. Part Two 需要大家特别注意的几个地方:
第一:大家看到准备过的题目一定不要喜形于色。
第二:思考的时候可以不看考官,但在描述的时候,一定要看着考官说。
第三:注意时态。
第四:描述人的时候,注意he/she.
第五:结束的时候,不要说,that’s all.
如果你是在没话说了,可以使用下面这句话:
Well, I’m afraid that’s all I can think of to say now, thank you.

经典卡片解析1:
Describe a shopping place you like. (such as a supermarket or shopping mall).
You should say:
where it is
what it looks like
how often you go there
and explain why you like it so much.
I’d like to talk about a shopping mall in my home city of Xi’an,which is in the
downtown pedestrian zone, and it’s not far from where I live, just about ten
minutes’ bus ride away, so it’s really convenient for me to go there.
The mall is huge, you know, with 10 floors, and it looks really modern with shiny
glass curtain walls.
The inside is also amazing. It’s spotlessly clean and elegantly decorated. So it’s
absolutely an enjoyment to be there.
I go the mall quite a lot, about once or twice a month, sometimes alone, and
sometimes with the company of my best friend.
管理资源吧(www.glzy8.com),提供海量管理资料免费下载!
And most of the time, I go there to buy something, but some of the time, I just go
window shopping there.
As to why I love the place so much, the main reason is of course that the mall is
a shopping paradise, offering an amazingly wide selection of goods. Most of them
are reasonably priced, affordable to most people. The most important thing is you
can always find something you really want to buy there, whether it’s a piece of
clothing or electronic equipment. And everything there is name-brand stuff , so
the quality is highly reliable.
And another reason I love the place is because of its excellent shopping environment
and outstanding service. It’s really pleasant to be there. Even just strolling around
and admiring all the exquisite products is highly enjoyable. The only problem is that
on the weekends and holidays its packed with shoppers; you know it’s the most
popular shopping place in the city, so I usually avoid going there at those peak times.
I prefer to go there in the late afternoon after school/work, like at 6 or 7 o’clock. And it
closes at 10, so I still have enough time to do my shopping.

经典卡片解析2:
Describe a city or town you ever visited or lived in.
You should say:
Which city it is
What is the main feature of the city
What you like about it
What you dislike about it.
I’d like to talk about ChengDu, which is the capital of SiChuan province in southwestern China.
I’ve been to the city for a couple of times on summer vacation or at spring festival to visit my
uncle. He went to the city after graduation from university and has been living there since
then.
ChengDu is probably one of the best known metropolises in China, just like ShangHai and
ShenZhen, but it’s got its own unique charm. Shanghai is a financial center, ShenZhen is
a commercial and industrial center, but Chengdu is more known as a leisure and tourism
capital.
In China, when people talk about Chengdu, what first comes into mind is usually its gorgeous
scenery, wonderful delicacies and beautiful girls. And also, the local lifestyle is envied by
most people in China. The living cost in Chengdu is not very high and the pace of life is
not so fast. It seems that people there don’t care so much about making money. For them,

enjoying life is much more important. Maybe, that’s why they spend a lot of their time
As to what I dislike about the city, well, um, it’s really difficult for me to think of anything to say,
cos I really love the city. Maybe, the only thing about the city that needs improving is the
roads. They’re not very well designed and a lot of them are quite old and need upgrading.

经典卡片解析3:
Describe a TV or radio program that you like to talk about with your family or
friends.
You should say:
What the program is about / what the program is
How often you watch or listen to this program
What type of people enjoy this program
And explain what you like (or dislike) about this program.
Well, I’d like to talk about a very popular talent show on CCTV3. It’s called Star
Avenue. And it’s something like American Idol and Britain’s Got Talent.
The show airs twice a week The first time is on Wednesday night and the repeat
is on Saturday night. So I’m able to watch it every time and I hardly ever miss it.
It’s a talent show, so it’s all about the competition between contestants in the
auditions and the other four levels of competitions, the weekly, monthly,
quarterly, and the annual final. And the winners of each level advances/gets into
the next level, and annual champion will be recommended to perform on CCTV
Spring Festival gala.

As to what type of people watch the show, as I know, it attracts people of all ages.
Just like in my family, my parents and I are all loyal viewers of the show. And we
usually watch it together. And we clap and cheer for a good performance just as
the live audience in the TV studio. And we like to have a bet on who will be the
winner each time. And the one who loses the best has to do the washing up.
I love the TV show for a variety of reasons. But the most important reason I think is
that the show is ordinary people like me to demonstrate their talent in front of a
nationwide TV audience. In the past, we didn’t have anything like that. Only
famous professional performers had the chance to give performances on TV.
But now everybody can do that as long as they have what it take, courage and
talent. And I’m really happy about that. If I was a good singer or something, I
would also like to take part in it. But unfortunately, I don’t have any special talent.

经典卡片解析4:
Describe an important historic site (in your country) that you visited.
You should say:
where it was
what you saw at this site (or, what it looked like)
when it was built / what role it played in history
how you first learned about this place
and explain what interested you most about that place.
I’d like to talk about the well-known museum of terracotta warriors and horses,
which I visited on a summer vocation with my parents.
It’s a very famous place, not only in China, but also in the world, so I guess you
probably know it. It’s in Xi’an, Shan’xi province. As you may know, Xi’an used to
be the capital of several ancient dynasties so it’s got numerous/countless/lots
of important historical sites. The terracotta warriors and horses museum is just
one of them.
What I saw there? Um, of course it’s mainly the pottery soldiers and horses.
There’re three pits. The first pit is the largest and the most splendid. And around
the pits are wide walkways for viewers. And you can take photos there, but you
mustn’t

use the flash cos it may have a damaging effect on those centuries-old relics.
When it was built? Well, it was built over 2,000 years ago by the first emperor of
Qin dynasty.It was actually part of his huge tomb. He built this massive
underground
army to protect his tomb. Maybe, he wished to live an emperor in an underground
palace, just like when he was alive.
I learned about this place a long time before I went there. I first got to know it from
a history book in primary school, in which it was described as the world’s 8th
wonder.
What impressed me most about the place was of course, you know, thousands
of pottery soldiers and horses. They’re absolutely amazing works of art. It’s really
hard to imagine how they made them so well over 2,000 years ago when they
didn’t have the help of modern technology and equipment. It’s just incredible. And I
was really impressed. So, I took lots of photos and bought a book about it, as well
as a small replica of a terracotta soldier as a souvenir.

经典卡片解析5:
Describe a film you (recently) enjoyed watching. (Either at home or in a
cinema).
You should say:
what type of film it was
where you watched this film
what the film was about
(why you chose to watch this film)
And explain why you enjoyed this film.
Well, actually I love films and I’ve seen lots of great films, like Titanic and Forrest
Gump, but now I’d like to talk about a film I watched about 2 years ago. It’s
called the Pursuit of Happiness. I guess you have probably watched it, cos it
was a smash hit in 2006 and 7.
I saw the film in the cinema alone and before that I had watched its trailer onthe
Internet, which was really good, so I decided to watch it in the cinema.
The film is based on a true story of an African American financial investor. WillSmith
plays him in the film, with the name of Chris. At first, he is a real loser,working
as a salesman, selling a kind of a medical machine, but it just doesn’t

sell. Nobody wants to buy it cos it’s expensive and impractical. And as a result, he
goes broke, and then his wife leaves him, and then he loses his house, bank
account, and credit cards, everything. He became homeless and had to live out
in the streets with his son. But all the difficulties don’t break the man. Instead,
they make him stronger and even more eager and determined to make it. He
became an intern in an investment company and eventually got hired by the
company.
I really enjoyed the film very much, first because Will Smith does a
fantastic/superb/excellent/brilliant job in the film. He’s really an amazing actor.
You know, he’s known/famous for his action films, but in this film, he plays a
father and husband in a real life situation and he plays it so well/beautifully. It’s
definitely something remarkable.
Another reason I enjoyed the film is because of the touching story. I’m not thekind
of person who likes to cry, but at many moments in the film, I was on the verge
of tears, and I just couldn’t help it. And I can still remember the scene where
Chris and his son had nowhere to go one night, and had to stay in a public
toilet/restroom of a subway station, and Chris locked the door from inside, and
a guy wanted to use the toilet, but couldn’t open the door, so he kicked the door
again and again. At that moment, Chris cried, and I cried too.

七. 雅思口语第三部分
1. 概述
雅思口语考试第三部分是整个考试的高潮部分,考生的最终得分是高是低主要取决于
你在这一部分的表现。5.5分或5.5分以下的考生,在第三部分是非常困难的,通
常考官说的话比考生还多,因为他要不断解释考生才能听懂,而且要不断诱导,
考生才能像挤牙膏似的说点东西。面对这样的考生,考官有时候比考生还难受,
但又不能提前结束,通常在10-11分钟时,考官就会早早收场。6-7分的考生在这
一部分的突出特点是问题基本都能听懂,只是个别问题需要让考官重复或解释;
同时每个问题或多或少都能答上来,尽管有时候是经过考官引导或提示的。在第
三部分,考生会面临一个扩展答案的问题,但多数考生在这方面都不是很主动,
他们通常是在考官追问下才进行解释的,如Why? Why not? Could you give me
an example? Anything else? 等,但这并不会太影响分数只要你能解释得上来。
但考官还是喜欢考生自己去论述自己的观点,及:尽可能的提供例证,原因等。
总之这一部分是不管你说多长,考官都有耐心听你说下去,除非是你说的他不理
解。6分和7分在这部分的区别在于考生的扩展能力,词汇的广度和准确度,语法
结构的广度和准确度。考官在这一部分的通常做法就是穷追猛打,逼考生发挥出
最大潜能,当然也可能是原形毕露。是骡子,是马,拉出来溜溜就知道了.
管理资源吧(www.glzy8.com),提供海量管理资料免费下载!
2. 题目类型
雅思口语第三部分和第一部分所采取的方式是一致的,但是问题更具挑战性。第一部
分主要是关于“你”的,所以多数问题都是围绕“you”展开的,而在第三部分,
问题是围绕 “其他人” “你们国家的人” “男人,女人” “老人,年轻人,
小孩” “过去的人,现在的人,将来的人” 等主题展开的,其问题更具普遍性,
也更抽象。这部分考察的语言技能包括:
3. 典型示例
如果第二部分题目是:
Describe a famous person you would like to meet.
You should say:
who this person is
where you first saw him or her
how/why this person is famous
and explain what you would say to this person.
那么,考官在第三部分就可能会和你讨论以下的问题:
成名的利弊 2. 成名的途径 3. 过去的名人和现在的名人的不同
4.明星的责任 5. 你对偶像崇拜的看法(尤其是青少年)。
想想,如果你在第二部分的卡片是:
Describe a place you know where the public may go to listen to music
You should say:
where this place it
what kind of people go there
what kind of music you can listen to there
and explain how you feel about this place.
那么你在第三部可能被问到什么样的问题呢?
4. 考官在第三部分如何提问
至于具体提问的方式,每个考官可能提问的方式有所不同,毕竟同一个问题可以有
多种不同的表述方式:如
How does A differ from B?
=How is A different from B?
=What is the difference between A and B?
但是,在第三部分通常是要你表达自己的观点,所以最常见的提问方式就是:
Do you think….? 或者 What do you think about…?
Why do you think some people…?
Could you give me an example?
How are young people and old people different in their attitudes to…?
What do you think we can do to…?
How do you think…will change in the future? 等等。
5. 第三部分说多少合适?
部分考官喜欢让考生多说,这样他就可以少问些问题。这样做的前提是考生的口
语能力比较强,但这种情况并不多见。通常考官在第三部分问的问题比较多,
可能达到十个左右,这一方面是因为考生的答案比较短,考官需要不断提示
考生从不同方面对答案进行扩充,如考官可能会叫你举个例子证明你的观点,
或者给出原因。至于具体应该说多少,那就得看你能说到少了,考官看你说
不下去了,通常会换个题目,或者引导你往下说。
6. 考官在这部分主要寻找什么?
首先,考官期望你能够和他进行交流,不希望看到长时间的停顿,所以考生可以
想到什么就先说出来,不要等想好了再说,通常的说法是边想边说。你不要
担心自己的观点很幼稚,这不会影响分数,考官主要看你能否表达自己的观
点。
其次,考官期望你的回答不跑题,这需要大家认真听问题,如果没听懂,可以通
过以下方式让考官帮助你:
Sorry, could you say it again please? I didn’t quite catch it.
Excuse me, what do you mean by “computer-literacy”?
Sorry, what does the last word mean?
Well, could you put the question another way?
如果,你想向考官确认你是否听懂了问题,你可以说:
So, you want me to…?
最后,考官帮你之后,别忘了在回答前表示感谢:
Oh, I see/I see what you mean. Thanks.
如果,考官解释了你还没听懂,你可以让考官换个问题,这总比什么都不说强:
Sorry, I really have no idea what to say. Could you give me anther question?
或者:Sorry, I really don’t understand the question. Could you ask me another
one?
7. 我该如何去准备第三部分?
其实最重要的还是要去扩充自己的词汇量,巧妇难为无米之炊嘛。如果时间紧,
可以背背话题词汇。不过与此同等重要的还是要去看看最近常考的话题,争
取自己事先有所准备,不打无准备之仗。
再者,大家要把自己喜欢用的连词练得滚瓜烂熟,尤其是发音要准。
比如:表达原因我喜欢用:I think it’s mainly because….
或者,I think the main reason is that…部分同学的main或mainly发得就不准确,
容易和man/manly混。
再比如:表达某个事物的好处时,我喜欢用:I think the beauty of living in the
city is the convenient transport, shopping and entertainment facilities.
这需要大家总结出来并把它们记在一起,并写上例句,天天练几遍,争取做到
成为本能。只有这样考试的时候才能说得出来。
8. 我怎么去让自己扩展答案?
一个标准的答案应包括:你的观点+论据+总结
我们姑且将其总结成:
topic sentence+supporting details+conclusion
简称为:TSC
几乎所有的问题都可以用这个方式去扩展。这个方式最重要的部分是
要给出支持的论据,通常包括具体的例子,原因等。
现在我们就以上面的“名人”这个话题为例为大家进行详细的说明。
Would you like to be famous?
说明:这个问题显然需要你表达自己的意愿,并给出原因。
示范1:
Well, I’d like to be famous if I could. Everybody has a desire to be a star and
I’m no exception. The reason is simple. We all want to have a glamorous
life like those celebrities.
示范2:
Well, I wouldn’t like to be famous. I’m not so ambitious. I just want to have a
job I like and a happy family.
What’s the advantage and disadvantage of being famous?
说明:在谈论某物的利弊时,最好用上一定的结构让考官知道你的思路。
示范:
Um. Obviously, the best thing of being famous is that you are able to become
very rich and live a life you dream about, however, as everything is a
double-edged sword, being famous also brings a lot of disadvantages. For
example, you lose a lot of privacy. Whatever you do gets public attention.
Most of the attention is annoying. And also, wherever you go, you may be
followed by paparazzi. It’s very difficult for you to go out with your family or
friends like ordinary people.
How can people get famous these days?
说明:这个问题的关键词是 “How”, 你只需说明一种现代人成名的方式就可以
了。
示范:Well, as I know, the most common way for people to become
famous is to join some famous contests, such as those talent shows on TV.
If you become the champion, you become famous. Another way to
become famous is to be an actor and actress. If you appear in a very
successful film and you do a good job, you become famous immediately. In
a word, it’s very easy to become famous nowadays as long as you have
your own stuff and you catch the chance to show it to other people.
How did people become famous in the past?
说明:从现在谈到过去时考官常用伎俩,其目的很明显:能否正确使用动词过去
时。所以常见动词的过去时大家一定要熟悉。
示范:how people became famous in the past? Um, I’m not sure because I
don’t know much about that. I only know that when I was child, the most
famous people were government leaders or national heroes like LeiFeng
and some important scientists. They became famous through newspapers
or textbooks.
Do you think the famous should shoulder more responsibility for the
society?
说明:这个问题有点难度,但还是有话可说的。考官这么问你,显然名人是有社
会责任的,因为他们的成名离不开大家的支持。当然你也可以有自己的观点。
示范1:
Well, it’s hard for me to say whether the famous should shoulder more
responsibility for the society. Personally, I think the famous should have
some social responsibility. The main reason is that their success comes
from the support of their fans and their fans come from all walks of life, so
in order to reward their fans, they should do something to give back to the
society.
示范2:
Well, I don’t think so because I think the famous people achieve their success
mainly through their own efforts. Therefore, I don’t think we should force
any responsibility on them. For example, I don’t think we should require
the famous people to donate a lot of money to charity. Whether to do that
should depend on themselves. It’s a matter of personal choice.
What do you think about teenagers worshipping celebrities?
说明:这个问题的本质是让你表达这个现象你认为是好还是不好,并说明原因。
示范1.
I think it’s a good thing. If a teenager worships celebrities, it shows that he has
a desire to be famous too. I don’t think it’s a bad thing to have a bit of
ambition. It would be even better if they follow the example of their idol’s
success and work hard to realize their own dream.
示范2:
Well, it’s hard to say, I think. On one hand, it’s just natural to idolize a star.
Almost everybody has their own idols. On the other hand, it can be
dangerous for a teenager to worship a star blindly. As I know, some
teenagers admire a star simply because they are good-looking or
fashionable. They imitate whatever their idol does. They copy their hairstyle
or the way they dress or even their tattoos. I think it’s too shallow. One
more thing, some stars have very dirty private life. They do drugs or do
some other illegal things. They are very bad influence on teenagers.
