| 雅思口语趋势分析和备考指导： |
2012年7月题目的问法越来越广。过去第三部分虽然问题较难，但是还总算与我们的生活息息相关，所以对于考生来说，还是有素材的。然而，现在越来越多的新的第三部分题目涌现出来，但是有明显变难的趋势。虽然Part 3算不上一场真正的“讨论”，因为基本上只有考生在回答问题，但是考官还是努力地营造出discussion的气氛，比如会针对一个topic提问几个相关问题，并且根据你的回答有针对性地提出新的问题等。其实，了解到Part 3具备discussion的特点，对考试是很有帮助的。例如，在discussion中，当你被问到一个比较有挑战性的问题而不确定答案时，保持沉默是不对的，因为会使对方觉得你因为不满或生气而不愿谈论这个话题。所以我们当然也不应该在考试时这么做。朗阁海外考试研究中心的老师对此给出如下建议：首先，可以使用一些表达为难的句型，比如“oh，that’s a difficult question to answer, you sure seem to know how to ask hard questions!”来赢得思考时间。其次，你完全可以尝试用猜测的方式来回答问题，例如“I’ve no idea, but if I were..., I would probably...” 因为这在discussion中是完全可行的。 有时细节可以决定成败！ |
