雅思口語考試比較類問題答題技巧講解
比較類問題是口語第三部分中比較高頻的考題,這類問題看似容易回答,但是學生的答案往往會忽略這類問題的核心結構,導致丟分。
首先我們來看一下這類問題的常見提問方式:
1. Do men and women like the same hobbies?
2. How are magazines different from newspapers?
3. Are schools nowadays the same as in the past?
4. Do shops change a lot in recent years?
相信同學們已經看出來了,12題是兩個事物進行比較,34題是一個事物自身進行前後比較,但無論是兩個事物還是一個事物,我們都可以用一套方法解決。
下面再來看一道例題以及一名中國考生的答案:
Q:Do men and women like the same hobbies?
No, I think men and women like different hobbies.
Men like playing computer games, or doing sports activities such as football and basketball. However, women like watching TV, shopping, going to a karaoke bar and chatting on line.
不難看出,這位考生的答案質量並不高,但是如果問同學們這個答案不好在哪裏,相信大部分同學都會説出答案短,單詞一般,語法簡單等理由,但閆春偉老師分析到這名考生的答案的致命弱點是答案的結構。
同學如果仔細分析上面的答案,會發現男人的愛好有兩個,而女人的愛好有四個,所以表面看上去這位考生進行了對比,但實際上他只是進行了羅列,而沒有做到真正意義上的對比。那麼到底應該怎麼回答呢?同學們可以看一下閆春偉老師給出的.答案樣本:
Well, certainly there are a few differences.
The first difference is the outdoor activities. I mean, men are fond of doing sports activities like football and basketball. In contrast, women prefer going shopping for clothes or shoes.
Another distinction is the TV programs they watch. For instance, men are quite into action movies. By comparison, women are more likely to watch soap operas.
這個答案樣本和上面那位同學的答案相比,最大的優勢就在於答案的結構,也就是説對比的層次很清晰,一目瞭然。這類問題的答題技巧其實並不難,用一句話概括就是針對性對比。也就是説我們要先説出不同點,即對比的靶子,然後再進行具體的比較。
我們再來看兩道例題:
例1: are magazines different from newspapers?
雜誌和報紙的不同點其實有很多,我們可以稍微列舉一下:
內 容:interesting VS boring
讀 者:young VS old
價 格:expensive VS cheap
周 期:weekly or monthly VS daily
同學們答題的時候不用把所有的不同點都説出來,挑選一兩個典型的就好,閆春偉老師建議大家哪個好説選哪個。答案樣本:
Well, of course several differences can be found
The biggest difference, I suppose, is the content. Usually, a magazine is quite entertaining because it includes colorful pictures or interesting stories. On the contrary, the information on a newspaper is a little boring.
In addition, the price is also different. Normally a copy of newspaper will cost you 1 or 2 yuan, but you need to spend 15 or 20 yuan on a magazine.
例2:Are schools nowadays the same as in the past?
現在的學校和以前的學校不同點同樣有很多,例如:
大 小:small VS large
設 施:traditional VS modern
課 程:a few VS many
師 資:low VS high
我們同樣還是哪個好説選哪個,比如:
Well, of course there are a few differences.
The most obvious difference should be the facilities. I mean, in the past, all we got were the blackboard and chalks. By contrast, todays school will provide students with advanced teaching facilities like the multi-media and well-equipped labs.
Moreover, a further distinction is the courses. Decades ago, students only had to learn a few subjects and the content was easy, but nowadays students pressure has been largely increased because they have to deal with 7 or 8 subjects at the same time.
