IELTS口语第一部分:动物与宠物
能干净地分成你现在养的宠物、你以前养过的宠物和一般的动物——一个话题三种答案。
它容易联系到童年,因文化而异,不需要专业词汇就能同时产出过去的叙述和现在的习惯。
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 have a pet?
- Did you have any pets as a child?
- Are pets common in your country?
- What is your favourite animal?
- Do you like going to zoos?
- Are there many animals where you live?
- Do you think children should look after a pet?
- Have you ever been afraid of an animal?
- Do you watch programmes about wildlife?
- Would you like to have a pet in the future?
这个话题怎么答
- 如果你现在没有宠物但小时候养过,就从这里说起——这是过去的叙述,比一个现在时的“no”更有价值。
- 说出是什么动物,如果它有名字也说出来。具体会立刻让你更流利。
- 关于动物园的问题引出一点观点,这在第一部分不常见。接住它,并简要谈两面。
- “Would you like one in the future”是条件句,而且常被略过。用条件句回答。
这个话题适合用的词汇
we had a dog growing up
自然的过去时框架
look after
表示照顾宠物的标准动词
house-trained
具体且不常见
I'm more of a cat person
表达偏好的地道结构
in the wild
用于非圈养的动物
it's a big commitment
成年人谈宠物时的自然看法
这里最容易丢分的地方
宠物问题答“no”,就当这个话题结束了。
这十个问题里有九个不需要你养动物。童年、你的国家、动物园、野生动物、害怕、未来——都还可以谈。
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 like animals?
Yes, though I'd distinguish between liking them and wanting to live with one. I grew up with dogs and I'm very comfortable around them. I currently don't have a pet because I'm out of the flat for ten hours a day and that seems unfair rather than merely inconvenient.为什么有效先做出区分,再给出一个带伦理层面而不是实际层面的理由。
Did you have a pet as a child?
We had a dog called Bruno for about twelve years, from when I was six. He was enormous, entirely untrained, and universally adored, which are related facts. I think having him is most of why I'm comfortable with animals now — you learn to read them without noticing you're learning.为什么有效“Which are related facts”带着冷幽默,又很简练,结尾的观察真正有思考。
Are pets popular in your country?
Very, and increasingly so — I've noticed far more dogs in the city than there were ten years ago, and a whole industry has appeared around them. Whether city flats are a good place for a large dog is a question I don't think enough people ask before buying one.为什么有效用现在完成时描述趋势,然后是一个温和的观点,体现的是判断而不只是描述。
