技巧二：給出多句話的回答
這個原則主要是針對那些回答問題慣用一兩句話或者一兩個字的人，但凡這樣的情況出現(xiàn)，這個Q&A的過程就會變成一個審問的過程。使得提問人和答問人都會顯得非常郁悶。比如：
A: What’s you name?
B: York.
A: How old are you?
B: 27.
A: Where do you come from?
B: Chengdu
A: Do you like the English Corner here?
B: No.
A: Why?
B: Because I see you.
這種乒乓球式的一來一回，最后都不會有什么好的結(jié)果。練習(xí)口語是我們的目的，所以一定要利用別人提問的機(jī)會多說一些，這樣才會對所說的話題更加熟悉，同時還可以兼顧到語音語調(diào)以及詞匯句型的升級，也讓聽者覺得你是有表達(dá)欲望和交流欲望的。比如：
A: What’s your name?
B: Feel free to call me York. This is a name easy to remember as it never fails to remind people of the names of a state and a city in the United States—the New York State and the New York City. Actually it was given by my first English teacher in middle school and it is my personal favorite English name and I have used it since then.
后面的任何問題都可以如法炮制，只要回答者能夠用多句話來回答問題，交流的感覺會變得更加好。平時要有意識的訓(xùn)練自己用5句話回答任何問題，這樣的話就可以在面對任何問題的時候都不會沒有話說（當(dāng)然，這個訓(xùn)練的目的是為了大家抓住鍛煉口語多說，不意味著任何問題從實(shí)質(zhì)上講都需要說5句話，5是個虛數(shù)也是個實(shí)數(shù)），包括那些你不知道答案的問題，比如：
A: Do you know how many stars are there in the sky? (口頭逼到可以不太講究語序)
B: This is a question too complicated for me to answer. As far as I know, the number of stars is uncertain since science and technology are developing everyday and we can not be so sure about the number of stars we have discovered, not to mention those unknown to us. The fact of matter is we need to see beyond those numbers, which means what those number means to us matters much more than the number itself. That is basically how I look at this question.
相信大家可以看出來了，即使不能對問題的答案有一個確定的答復(fù)，也可以就提問者的動機(jī)或者問題答案對我們的意義著手進(jìn)行進(jìn)一步的陳述，最關(guān)鍵的是把自己的觀點(diǎn)說出來，這樣不論是英語口頭表達(dá)和個人的自信心，都會得到相應(yīng)的提高。
