分析认为,对于很少开口讲英语的中国烤鸭们而言,雅思口语的难点在于:
一、没话说;
二、不知怎么说 。
以上这两点大大影响了口语成绩,均分全球垫底成为可能。而攻克这两大难点的通用武器便是经典句型。语法知识告诉我们,英语中的三大从句各有用途。定语从句起修饰或包装的作用;名词性从句提供信息;状语从句补充说明,增加额外信息量。那么这三种从句是否也可以用在口语中并且发挥同样的用途呢?下面,专家将从语法角度来解释英语从句在应对雅思口语考试三部分话题时的巨大威力。
一、定语从句经典系列
① is the kind of who is
② is a who gives you the impression of being
③ is one of the most I have ever seen/met/known.
④ is a place where you can do sth.
⑤ is a day when you do sth.
雅思口语话题频繁涉及人物,地点,物品,事件四大类,上表中的原句是在回答此类问题时多数考生使用的句型。其缺陷是过于简短,一不能体现语法优势,二不能凑字数争取时间。而套用句型后的表达效果就明显不一样了。可见,定语从句的使用在口语中可以起到包装作用。
二、名词性从句经典系列
① The reason why I is that +从句
② The most important thing is that+从句
③ Another thing is that+从句
④ What I mean is that + 从句
⑤ What Id like to say is that +从句
以上名词性从句①到③是引出个人观点或信息时的过渡句型,在口语表达中可以起到建构框架,使条理清晰层次分明的作用。而④和⑤则是用于进一步解释说明。套用实例:
The reason why I admire Yaoming is that he is a legend and also a great guy. The most important thing is that he is one of Chinas most recognizable athletes. What I mean is, his image can be seen everywhere, he is a household name. Another thing is that Yao has also participated in many charity events during his career. What Id like to say is that he not only donated money to relief work, but also created a foundation to help those in need.
三、状语从句经典系列
① I first got to know him/it when + 从句
② have since +从句
③ If I had the chance, I would like to
④ If , then it is quite possible that I will
以上句型只需稍加变动,便可应用于多种话题。句型之间的有机组合还可成为集合,碰到没话说的时候十分顶用。
句型①套用实例:
I first got to know him when I was studying in primary school.
I first read the story/saw the programme when I was visiting my grandparents three years ago.
I first learned how to skate/play basketball when I was in high school.
句型②套用实例:
We have lost contact since he moved out of town.
I have stopped watching the programme since I entered the university where TV was not available.
I have been practicing basketball on a regular basis ever since I knew how to play it.
句型③是虚拟语气,表达一种设想。当问题为would you like to时,建议使用该句型。另外,还可以在无话可说时用来应急。套用句型:
If I had the chance, I would like to travel to California and visit my best friend who I havent seen for ages.
If I had the chance, I would like to ask Yaoming to autograph my basketball.
句型④是在分情况讨论问题时必备句型,也是丰富回答内容的经典招数。套用实例:
Q: What do you usually do at weekends?
A: Well, its hard to say. I mean, if I am with friends, then its quite possible that we will go window shopping or traveling around. But if I am alone, its more likely that I will just stay at home and do some washing and cleaning.
当然,以上两种情境还可以变换成多种可能,如按天气状况分为If it is good weather, 和If it is bad weather; 按时间多少分为If Ive got a lot of time,和If I am fairly busy; 等等。
综上,三大英语从句在口语中的适量使用可以起到意想不到的效果,既在语法这一评分标准上赢得了优势,又可以帮助摆脱考场上无话可说的尴尬。因此,相信考生们只要肯花功夫和时间记忆以上一些经典句型并加以巩固练习,必定会在雅思口语单项方面有所提高。
