TASK1: If you need to choose a community activity to do, which one of the following three activities would you like to choose? Teaching kids classes, teaching adults how to use computers, and cleaning the community park. Give details to support your response.
題目分析:近來(lái)此類三選一的題目有所增加,很多同學(xué)看到題目后將大部分準(zhǔn)備答案的時(shí)間放在到底選擇哪個(gè)選項(xiàng)上,其實(shí)從哪個(gè)角度都可以講得通,原則在于你如何組織答案的結(jié)構(gòu),使其有主有次,論證清晰即可。剩下的就是發(fā)音,語(yǔ)調(diào)和語(yǔ)法詞匯等英文能力的問(wèn)題了,這里主要討論邏輯從何下手。
以下范文的結(jié)構(gòu)是topic sentence+選choice 1的原因+為什么不選另外兩個(gè)的原因,如果同學(xué)們說(shuō)完這些內(nèi)容沒(méi)得可加卻還有時(shí)間,可以再加上一句conclusion進(jìn)行總結(jié),但在我們有實(shí)質(zhì)內(nèi)容可講的情況下,不建議用conclusion來(lái)填補(bǔ)時(shí)間。
范文:
Well, if I have a choice among those three activities, I will certainly choose to teach some kids.
This is all because of my personal experience as a childcare assistant all these years. Currently I am doing my university degree in childcare, and have been helping in a childcare center in the past 3 years, where I get plenty of professional knowledge and experience in teaching and taking care of kids. I really see tons of fun in it and it is definitely my dream job after graduation.
As for the other two alternatives, I really don't think I'm competent to do those coz I'm myself bit dumb in computers and don't even know how to use those machines that I always see cleaners using, such as the leaf-blower. So it'll be difficult for me to get my hands on.
TASK2: Some people prefer a job which deals with the same task everyday, while others prefer a job that deals with many different tasks. Which do you prefer and why?
題目分析:
和task1一樣,想把事情講明白,得到一個(gè)比較不錯(cuò)的分?jǐn)?shù),45秒的時(shí)間內(nèi)將答案控制在100-150字之間會(huì)是一個(gè)非常不錯(cuò)的選擇,具體要取決于同學(xué)們表達(dá)的流利程度而定,無(wú)論如何,在保證邏輯清晰的基礎(chǔ)上,節(jié)奏的控制要在自己可以把控得住的合理語(yǔ)速上,不要著急。
我們首先要做的是開(kāi)門見(jiàn)山表明自己觀點(diǎn),這里不應(yīng)該是浪費(fèi)時(shí)間的地方,而且也盡量不要有意思比較模糊的表達(dá),很多同學(xué)想用辯證的方法去看待問(wèn)題,從邏輯的角度講是很好,但是45秒想用辯證的方法去真正說(shuō)明白一個(gè)問(wèn)題是幾乎不可能的事情,因此,topic sentence簡(jiǎn)明扼要是第一原則。
接下來(lái)我們就需要來(lái)解釋why了,這里建議同學(xué)們使用兩個(gè)points的方式來(lái)講,會(huì)比較適合大多數(shù)同學(xué),相對(duì)比較容易。因?yàn)橹恢v一點(diǎn)細(xì)節(jié)來(lái)支持,就需要就這一方面講得非常細(xì)致,又不能表意重復(fù),在15秒的準(zhǔn)備時(shí)間內(nèi)搞定是比較難的,而講3個(gè)以上的points就有更多弊端存在,首先每個(gè)point沒(méi)有時(shí)間進(jìn)行細(xì)致的解釋,其次大多數(shù)同學(xué)在15秒內(nèi)是想不出3個(gè)points的,這樣會(huì)無(wú)形間加大不必要的壓力,因此我們使用topic sentence+detail1+details2的結(jié)構(gòu)來(lái)回答問(wèn)題。前面講到topic sentence要簡(jiǎn)明扼要,detail的段落就是要表意和邏輯清晰,而且一定要扣題,不要說(shuō)偏了,同時(shí)說(shuō)到例子的時(shí)候一定注意表達(dá)要具體真實(shí)。和task1中的解釋一樣,conclusion部分可有可無(wú),視時(shí)間而定。
下面是一個(gè)范例供大家參考:TOPIC SENTENCE+REASON1+REASON2
When it comes to choosing a job, I would say I definitely prefer one that requires me to deal with many different tasks every day, which is also what my current job is like.
The most obvious reason is that only if you have the capability to cope with different tasks, you can solve unpredictable problems that many others cannot come up with a solution. And this is a necessary requirement for a successful leader, which I want to become one day in my career.
On top of that, doing the same thing everyday will kill me coz it's gonna be very boring over time. Most of the time, I'm doing a job because I can learn from the challenges, and I believe this is the case for most young people. When the job becomes a routine, I think it'll be the time for me to change one.
以上范文僅從結(jié)構(gòu)和語(yǔ)言的角度去分析題目,當(dāng)然,一個(gè)滿意的分?jǐn)?shù)還包括很多對(duì)其他方面的考察,也是同等重要的,口語(yǔ)能力的提高需要同學(xué)們認(rèn)真對(duì)待,堅(jiān)持練習(xí)。
