雅思口語卡片題的四大拓展策略
在教學的過程中，當問到學生雅思口語三個部分的考試哪個部分最難以對付時，大多數情況下學生會認為Part 2是最令人頭痛的部分。現在Part 2 的話題越來越細化、刁鉆，雖然有1分鐘的準備時間，但在緊張的考試環境下，大部分學生都稱腦子是空白的，以導致不充分的準備讓1-2分鐘的描述變得非常的慘白，無奈收尾，給考官的感覺始終印象不深刻，無法達到通過細致的描述想親自嘗試的意愿。
通過分析學生Part 2的回答范例，發現不少同學要么僅將話題卡中給的問題提示作以簡單回答，要么使用較為明顯的模板回答方式---也就是我們常說的無關緊要的話，來填塞內容上的空白。如 If I really have to choose a place to describe, Id like to tell you that . is such the place. 這也是中國學生雅思口語在40個國家和地區墊底的原因之一。在這篇文章中，將總結出四種Part 2描述題的拓展策略。
策略一：WH細節描述法
當考生在面對話題無從下手時，可以利用 WH Questions來引導思路的拓展，包括 what, when, where, who, why, how 。
例如，Describe a restaurant or cafe you like. 首先須明確what，when, where ，who;其次是整個描述的重點why，how exactly ，how often，how much，how many。
但是，朗閣海外考試研究中心在此提醒考生，在回答中，不可機械地按照每一個WH來作答，否則描述同樣會非常死板乏味，即需要靈活自然過渡每一個WH。
Sample answer：The Bookworm is my favorite cafe in this city, which is about 15 minutes drive from the Tianfu Square down the south, and unlike other fancy cafes in the downtown, it sits in a quiet surrounding. The Bookworm was born 5 years ago with the help of a journalist, who soon became the business partner and co-owner of Chengdu Bookworm. During these years, its been popular and welcomed by almost every foreigner in Chengdu. I guess its probably because the cafe is really the place that can make them feel at home, ranging from the food, coffee, inside decoration, and those books written and published from their country.
The Bookworm creates a warm and intimate atmosphere, offering its customers home style food and drink. When you get annoyed from a trouble in study or at work, having a rest at Bookworm will be the very pleasant thing to chill out. The greatest part is the live music every Friday night at which you can enjoy the best jazz and blues. There are three Bookworms in China, Beijing has the first, and Chengdu and Suzhou follow the step, therefore if youre taking a trip to Beijing or Suzhou, you can still have the opportunity to enjoy the nice little cafe. I like the cafe, for its the place where I can relax, eat, drink, read and enjoy music.
