根据我们对雅思发展方向的精确把握,2009年雅思口语考试的第三部分将体现出以下三大趋势:
一、话题偏向老年人的生活
这是由全球老龄化的大趋势决定的,各个发达国家以及许多发展中国家都面临这样一些严峻的难题:怎样解决老年人的晚年生活?怎样调解老年人与青年人之间的矛盾?
此类提问可能还会有:
What can make people happy when they are old?
Can old people get happiness?
What is the difference between the opinions of young and old people about being late?
What is todays teenagers attitude towards older people?
Does social development exert a bigger impact on the elderly or teenagers?
二、更注重现代与传统的对比
随着全球化浪潮的风起云涌,许多传统文化、传统思想以及传统习俗都被抛诸脑后甚至烟消云散。现代的观念、价值以及伦理规范取而代之,形成了一次又一次的碰撞和对抗,孰是孰非,就要看你在口语第三部分如何把握了。
2009年此类的预测题目有:
How has peoples clothing changed in the past few decades?
What do you think of modern people who like to wear unusual clothes?
In comparison with active participation in sports in the past, why do you think people nowsdays generally lack physical exercise?
What is the difference between news on radio and on TV? Which one is more efficient? Which one will be more popular in the future?
[注:radio相对来说是一种较为传统的媒体,而TV是比较现代的产物。]
Do you think women should stay at home as a full-time housewife or go out to look for a job?
[注:女性扮演家庭主妇的角色是一种传统思想,而出外找工作意味着现代女性的独立。]
三、更多地以全球眼光来出题
雅思口语出题者看到了由金融危机带来的世界格局大调整,以及全球政治、经济、军事、文化力量的相互制衡与紧密合作,因此很多话题的出题角度转向全球性的趋势也日益明朗。
请大家积极准备如下的全球性考题:
Why do we need international laws?
What is your opinion about the popularity of online shopping around the world?
Is environmental protection a local issue or an international one?
Explain the advantages and disadvantages of a global language.
How does international media influence local cultures?
