雅思口语Part 2描述题的拓展策略及分析

　　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。
