雅思口语Part 2描述题的拓展策略 雅思口语第二部分的卡片题对很多考生而言是个挑战，其难点在于话题拓展不开，无话可说。朗阁海外考试研究中心分析发现，出现这种状况的原因有两方面，一是口语基本功不扎实，想到的内容说不出来。二是对雅思口语话题还不够了解，没有做充分的思考和准备。对于第一种情况，即基本功的提高不可一蹴而就，需假以时日，持之以恒。本文中，朗阁海外考试研究中心将针对第二种情况，谈谈可用于卡片题内容拓展的两大策略，并结合真题做具体分析说明。
策略一：4W+1H疑问词法
4W— When, Where, Who, What, Why；
1H— How
【真题实例】 Describe a festival that is popular in your country.
You should say:
What the festival is
What time of year it is
What people do during this festival
Whether this festival has changed in recent years.
【答题思路】 以该例为代表的事件题最容易从时间，地点，人物角度入手探寻素材。话题卡本身会以特殊疑问句形式给出四个方面提示。就该题而言，what time=when, what people do=how, 对照4W+1H, 我们还可以自己加三点提示，即where to celebrate, with whom to spend,和why it is important to celebrate。那么内容一下子增加了近一半。
【细节详解】
è 卡片提示（4点）
l (what) The Spring Festival, is one of the\major traditional festivals in China. l (when) It falls on the first day of the first lunar month.
l (what to do) Ways to celebrate the Chinese new year vary from place to place, but generally speaking, setting fireworks and firecrackers is a shared tradition and people across China decorate their house with the red color.
l (whether) In recent years, Spring festival is more like a time for family get-together and personal relaxation , not a tradition to celebrate.
è 可增加的内容（3点）
雅思培训 托福培训 l (where) Chinese people would like to spend the holiday at home, watching TV or playing mahjong.
l (who) On this day, family members who study or work away from home all come back and stay together. It is a time for family reunion.
l (why) It is essential to have such a festival to celebrate, coz it offers the working people a chance to slow down, to strengthen the family bond and more importantly, to remember their tradition.
【旁征博引】 对于卡片题的另外三类主流话题（人物，地点，物品），这种拓展方法同样适用。人物题可谈及与之认识的时间(when did you meet, how long have you met)，地点(where did you meet each other)，一起做什么(what do you do together)，原因(why you two became friends),如何联系(how do you keep in touch)。地点题可谈及的内容有：第一次/上次去的时间(when did you first go there, what is the last time you went there)，该地点具体位置(where is it located)，和谁去过这个地方(with whom did you go there)，该地方有什么(what does this place have)，怎么去这个地方(How to get there)，为什么这个地点有名(why is it famous)。物品题思路拓展：什么时间得到的(when did you get this thing)，在哪可以看到或者买到(where did you first saw it or where can you buy it)，谁介绍的或者送的(who recommend or gave it to you)，为什么喜欢或不喜欢(why do you like/dislike it)，如何使用(how to use it)。
以上只是一部分，朗阁海外考试研究中心提醒考生需要注意的是，考试时无需对每个疑问词逐项说明，即便是卡片题上的四项提示也只是给考生作话题准备的参考而已，没有硬性规定非说不可。我们的原则是挑选有话讲的，容易讲的进行拓展。
策略二：S+E论点论据法
S—statement
E—example
【真题实例】 Describe a close friend
You should say:
Who the friend is
Where and when you first met
What you like about this friend
Whether this person is popular with other people.
雅思培训 托福培训 【答题思路】 根据卡片题的提示以及上述第一种拓展策略，多数人能够对于该话题给出五至八句话的回答。即每个疑问词引出一句话。然而，要讲满一到两分钟这些内容还远远不够。朗阁海外考试研究中心建议考生运用S+E法，把已想出的五至八句话看作是论点句(statement)，紧接每句给予细节支撑(example)。
【细节详解】 细节的给出有多种方法，包括：解释说明，作比较，因果论证，举例子。依次例证如下：
è S: We got to know each other when I was in junior high school.
E: which means, we have been friends for more than ten years.
è S: She is a good-looking girl.
E: In fact, if you look a little bit closer, she bears some resemblance with Zhang Ziyi, a well-known film star in China, also a famous Chinese beauty in western countries.
è S: One of the very few differences between us is that she is more hard-working. E: As a result, she used to score higher than me in high school.
è S: I like her because she is considerate and sensitive.
E: Whenever we were together, she acted like a big sister, supportive and caring. Even now when we are apart, she always surprises me by sending from afar a birthday gift to me.
è S: We used to have great time together.
E: We both were huge fan of Jackie Chen. Together, we watched every movie of him. After school, we used to haunt stationary shop and bought this or that kind of book, sticker, and so on.
【旁征博引】 这种对于每个新信息点都尽量给出细节说明的方法不仅能够用于拓展Part 2卡片题内容，也可以用于口语第一和第三部分。是使空洞话题变得有话聊的切实有效的策略。尤其是Part 3的问题，因为抽象，难度相对Part 1有提高，十分有必要学会提供论据，不仅内容丰富了，观点也得到了论证，更具说服力。
第二篇：雅思口语卡片题的四大拓展策略
雅思培训 托福培训 雅思口语卡片题的四大拓展策略 在教学的过程中，当问到学生雅思口语三个部分的考试哪个部分最难以对付时，大多数情况下学生会认为Part 2是最令人头痛的部分。现在Part 2 的话题越来越细化、刁钻，虽然有1分钟的准备时间，但在紧张的考试环境下，大部分学生都称“脑子是空白的”，以导致不充分的准备让1-2分钟的描述变得非常的惨白，无奈收尾，给考官的感觉始终印象不深刻，无法达到通过细致的描述想亲自尝试的意愿。
通过分析学生Part 2的回答范例，发现不少同学要么仅将话题卡中给的问题提示作以简单回答，要么使用较为明显的模板回答方式---也就是我们常说的无关紧要的话，来填塞内容上的空白。如 ”If I really have to choose a place to describe, I’d like to tell you that ?. is such the place.” 这也是中国学生雅思口语在40个国家和地区垫底的原因之一。在这篇文章中，朗阁雅思专家将总结出四种Part 2描述题的拓展策略。
策略一：WH细节描述法
当考生在面对话题无从下手时，可以利用”WH Questions”来引导思路的拓展，包括“what, when, where, who (whom), why, how (how exactly, how often, how long, how much, how many)”。
例如，Describe a restaurant or cafe you like. 首先须明确what (the Bookworm), when (some five years ago), where (down the south of Chengdu), who (foreigners for most of time)；其次是整个描述的重点why (comfortable, pleasant, intimate ), how
exactly (detailed description of being comfortable, pleasant, and intimate)，how often (once a month?), how much (30-40 yuan on average per person)，how many (3 in Whole China)。
但是，朗阁海外考试研究中心在此提醒考生，在回答中，不可机械地按照每一个WH来作答，否则描述同样会非常死板乏味，即需要灵活自然过渡每一个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, it’s been popular and welcomed by almost every foreigner in Chengdu. I guess it’s 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 you‘re taking a trip
to Beijing or Suzhou, you can still have the opportunity to enjoy the nice little cafe. I like the cafe, for it’s the place where I can relax, eat, drink, read and enjoy music.
策略二：举例支撑法
在Part 2话题描述中，如果仅有描述，仍会让整个陈述略显有些平淡，所以朗阁海外考试研究中心建议考生在描述的同时加上相应的例子，这样可以大大增加描述内容的丰富性和生动性。但是， 在Part 2里例子，并不一定要非常正式的举例，如“For example”；口语化的一些表达方式会更自然一些，如“such as, like”。比如，”Describe a special shop”, 除了描述这个shop里有一些special goods外，若再具体举例说明有哪些特殊商品可以更能增强生动性。In the shop, you can always find some special and interesting stuff, such as hand-made floating lantern, photo books, tiny china pot, and Nepali jewelries and things like that.
策略三：数据支撑法
Part 2话题属于细节描述题，在适当的时候如果能够使用数据来进一步支撑描述，可以增强话题描述的真实性和说服力。但是，朗阁雅思专家建议考生在使用数据的时候不要太过夸张数字，而且频率不应过多，使用一次数据就可以了。另外，与雅思写作有别的是，在写作中引用数据时最好有个出处或来源，但在回答口语Part 2问题时，这个出处可以省略，否则会导致回答内容是背诵的嫌疑，降低真实性，这就与我们的初衷背道相驰了。
比如“Describe a concert hall”, 我们可以通过数据的支撑来这样描述“The Civil Concert Hall holds about 50 to 60 shows on an average each year, receiving
almost 30,000 audiences, and part of them come to this hall simply because of its comfortable seats and great sound and lighting effects. ”有了数据的支撑，可以使我们对音乐厅的规模和条件有个更直观的了解，而不是简单地描述“the concert hall is very popular and well-equipped.”
策略四：比较对照法
1-2分钟的描述中，除了单方面地进行描述外，可以通过描述同类事物进行比较的方式来使内容更加全面细致。但是，这个部分毕竟是口语考试，所以选用的比较类的词语应为口语化的连接词，“unlike, similar, like, be different from”等。
雅思培训 托福培训
例如“Describe a magazine”, 我们这样来描述：The magazine I’ve been reading recently is O2 (Oxygen Magazine), which mainly covers good books, movies, music, and life design as well as eco protection are the key topics throughout the whole
magazine. Unlike the normal magazines, you cannot find any company’s advertisement on it. Another thing makes it different from the ordinary ones is that it uses recycled paper, and that’s what it’s aimed since it was born. 通过对比的方式，可以令考官加深对描述的印象，也丰富了枯燥话题的陈述内容。
以上四种策略可以帮助考生拓展雅思口语Part 2的回答，让描述题不再变得单调乏味，通过举例和数据支撑法来增强内容的真实性，细节法和比较对照法来弥补考生在题目上“无话可说”的问题，最终取得理想的分数！
