雅思口语的第三部分主要是针对第二部分话题卡题目的基础上,引申出一些社会问题进行考官与考生的双向讨论。考生想要在第三部分表现出色,首先要对相关的社会问题有所了解,其次要会用适当的英语表述出来。在第三部分中,比例最大的题目类型是Compare/Contrast,如何能够在第三部分自然流利的表达呢?下面我们就来了解一下Compare/Contrast类题目范围及回答常用句型。 Compare/Contrast类题目主要包括以下几类: 地域 (city/ rural area; north/south; different countries) 好坏 (advantages/disadvantages) 过去/现在/将来 (past/now/future) 人群 (age group; male/female) 政府/个人 (government/individual) 同类(相近)事物之间 (coffee/tea; radio/TV; seeing comedy/reading funny materials in a book; polite/friendly) 考官会在第二部分话题的基础上,根据以上总结的六类范围,让考生比较同类事物的相同点及不同点,并使考生回答出自己对此类社会问题的看法。同学们在备考的过程中,可以试着按以上几个分类预测第三部分的问题并练习自己的答案。以下是回答Compare/Contrast类问题的常用句型: 1. 描述不同点: -There are quite a few (a variety of / a couple of) differences between them. -The main difference I can think of now are….. -The most obvious (significant/essential) one is…. -A second difference would be… -There are other differences as well, but basically these are the main ones. 2. 现在与过去比较: -In the past… -Traditionally,… -People used to... -In the future… -At present,… -Currently… -These days… 3. 优缺点比较: -There are a number of benefits. -It is beneficial primarily because… -Clearly, the advantages include…. -It’s valuable also because… -There are may be some risks involved. -One major concern about this issue is… -This is very disturbing because… Disadvantages 替换词: shortcomings/negative aspects/drawbacks/weak
