IELTS口语第一部分:住所与居住环境
一个描述类话题,暗中考查介词和房间词汇,而大多数考生正是在这里出错。
它从家乡话题自然过渡而来,给考官第二个范围更窄的描述任务。它也是最能暴露方位介词不扎实的话题。
你可能会被问到的问题
问题会一个接一个快速抛出,考官不会点评你的回答。先大声读出来,每题用两三句话回答,然后再看下面的答题方法。
- Do you live in a house or a flat?
- Who do you live with?
- How long have you lived there?
- What is your favourite room?
- Is there anything you would change about it?
- Do you have a garden or a balcony?
- What can you see from your window?
- Would you prefer to live somewhere bigger?
- Is it easy to get to the shops from where you live?
- Did you help choose it?
这个话题怎么答
- 一句话说出房子类型、大小和楼层,然后停下,等下一个问题。
- 说到最喜欢的房间,讲你在那里做什么,而不是里面有什么——活动比清单有意思。
- “what can you see”这个问题是送分题:纯粹的描述,而且没人准备。抓住机会。
- 注意介词。“on the third floor”、“in the corner”、“at the back”、“opposite the kitchen”——这些都在被计分。
这个话题适合用的词汇
a two-bedroom flat
标准的复合形容词;注意“bedroom”用单数
we're on the third floor
表示楼层的正确介词
it overlooks
精确描述窗户朝向的动词
spacious
以及反义词“cramped”——都比“big”和“small”更好
within walking distance
用于位置便利
it does us fine
含蓄的满意,听起来像母语者
这里最容易丢分的地方
按顺序列出家里的房间。
平面图不是回答。挑一个房间,说说在里面发生什么——这能说出清单永远说不出的句子。
其中三道题的8分回答
读这些是为了看回答的形态,而不是背词句——两三句话,附上一个理由或例子。细节都是虚构的,你的回答应该讲你自己的;考官听得出背诵的答案,这让你失去的比得到的更多。
Do you live in a house or a flat?
A flat, on the second floor of a converted Victorian house, so it has the high ceilings and also the heating bill that goes with them. There are three of us. It's smaller than I'd like but it's a ten-minute walk from work, which I've decided is worth more than an extra room.为什么有效一个具体的物理细节加上它带来的结果,再说出一个取舍。这就是一个完整的第一部分回答。
What is your favourite room?
The kitchen, which surprises me because it's the smallest. It gets the morning light and it's where everyone ends up — we have a perfectly good living room that nobody sits in. I do most of my reading at the kitchen table, which probably says something about how much I like being near other people while ignoring them.为什么有效关于没人用的客厅的观察具体又有点好笑,结尾的从句是真实的想法,而不是套话。
Would you like to move somewhere else?
Eventually, yes. I'd want more space and ideally some outdoor space, even a balcony. But not for a couple of years — moving is expensive and I'd rather save properly than move somewhere marginally better. So it's a plan rather than something I'm actively doing.为什么有效持续使用条件句,然后区分了打算和行动,这是一个非常精确的表达。

用说话的速度回答这些问题
Oliver会像真正的考官那样问第一部分的问题——很快,没有反应,你还没想好就进入下一题。光读这些问题可不是同样的练习。第一次测试免费。
