雅思口语Part2里还有这么一类特别抽象的话题,让很多同学都完全没有答题思路。今天我们就来一起看看,如何应对Part2中的抽象话题。
按照惯例,先给出一道题库中的Part2话题:
Describe a beautiful sky you enjoyed in the past.
You should say:
-Where you saw it
-Who you saw it with
-What you saw
-And how you felt about it
有些同学认为,对于这个话题我们需要想尽办法的一直描述天空才可以。其实,对于这类抽象话题,如果把自己限定到只能描述话题中的抽象事物本身,这对语言的要求是很高的,而且会把整篇口语答案变成一篇“说明文”(类似的题目还有“Describe a game you played in the past”,同学们不要回答成介绍游戏玩法的说明文)。我们说答题的关键是要对抽象话题进行细节化和具象化的处理 。对天空进行详细描述,这在细节化方面是做到了,但却是太过于抽象,在具象化方面做的不够。
我曾经让一个同学用中文描述一下他对这道题的答题思路,他是这么说的:“有一天我正在学习,然后一抬头看到窗外的天空,好美啊!”我说你这个思路是可以的,但是你在细节化和具象化方面还要下功夫。例如,这件事情是什么时候发生的?你学习的是什么内容?天空是什么样的?看天空这件事情,对你短期(当时)和长期都有什么样的影响?
根据上面提出的这几个问题,我们可以把回答扩展成下面这样:
“应该是上个月的月初吧,其实我也不记得具体时间了。那天晚上,大概10点钟左右的样子。那时候我父母都睡了,而我却还卡在一道数学题目上。数学一直都不是我的强项,明天早上就要交作业了,而我却完全没有头绪;你可以想象的到,我当时的心情会是多么的烦躁!
于是我决定先休息一会儿,放松一下。随后我就在屋里来回踱步,并且不经意的望向了窗外,然后我就被天空中那轮明亮的圆月惊到了。月光是那么的温馨,那么的柔和;我的思想也瞬间平静了下来。我想起了小时候在乡下姥姥家的时光,当时的月光也是这样温柔的,小时候无忧无虑的时光真是美好啊!我在回忆里神游了一会儿之后,忽然想起作业还要继续完成啊!说来也奇怪,平复了心绪之后,数学题也变得不那么难了。我没花太长时间就把作业做完了,随后我就决定上床睡觉了。我希望那美丽的月光还可以出现在我的梦中,至于当晚到底有没有梦到月亮,说实话,我其实也不记得。
说到我对那晚天空的想法,我觉得看天空是一种很好的解压和放松的方式。现在人们太忙了,生活中的压力也太大了。我们需要学会慢下来,并且亲近自然,例如欣赏天空就是一种亲近自然最方便的方法。我就想说这么多了,谢谢!”
下面是供同学们参考的英文版本:
“It should be early last month. Actually, I don't really remember the exact time. That night, around 10 o'clock, my parents were asleep while I was stuck by a math problem. For me, math is not fun. Next morning was the deadline for the homework, and I had no idea how to get it done. You could imagine, how frustrated I was at that time!
So I decided to take a break, got relaxed. I paced the room and caught sight of the bright full moon outside the window. It was striking, the gentle and peaceful moonlight calmed me down. I recalled the time when I was a child and lived with my grandma in the countryside, there was also the gentle moonlight. I am nostalgic about the carefree good old days! I daydreamed a bit and remembered that the math homework had to be done by that night! Surprisingly, with my mind calmed down, math problems became less difficult. It didn't take long for me to finish it up, and then I decided to go to bed. I hoped that the beautiful moonlight could appear in my dream. Honestly, I don't really remember whether or not I dreamed of the moon.
When it comes to my feeling about watching sky, I believe it's a measure to ease our minds. There are so many pressures in our lives, we are too busy! We have to slow down a bit and get closer to nature. Let's say, appreciating the sky is a convenient approach to that closeness. That would be all, thank you!”
总结一下,对于比较抽象的话题,我们要从细节化 和具象化 方面下功夫。而其中的重点是具象化,因为BC对于口语Part2的设计初衷,还是让同学们聊熟悉的话题,并且尽量联系自己的生活 。在回答题目时,同学们需要在脑海中构建出一个自己熟悉的生活场景,其中一定要包含话题中的核心事物。随后再对这个场景进行全方位的扩展,从而实现具象化。
