雅思口語part3遇到reading怎么辦

關(guān)于reading，不論是在p1p2p3哪一個(gè)part，它都是經(jīng)常會(huì)出現(xiàn)的問題。然而“Reading helps to relax”，“My favorite book is…” ，這些梗是不是都已經(jīng)滾瓜爛熟了?今天我們要談的是—閱讀的“變化”。開始之前，你可以自己先來想一想，現(xiàn)在人的閱讀方式相較以前有了哪些變化?把你的答案記錄一下來，再來看看我們的sample answer吧。

Do you think people prefer to read books or magazines?

Sample answer：

Well, I can’t say this for sure, and I might be generalizing, but a lot of people probably prefer to read magazines. I’m only saying that because the society has sort of advanced into a more technological one, and I feel that people have become accustomed to brief and instantaneous information. I mean, like nowadays people use social media all the time, where information always appears in a short and extracted form. Now this does save a lot of time, but it also leads to a lack of patience of reading a long book these days. That’s why I suppose magazines are perhaps more preferable to read.

如何升級(jí)平淡的“閱讀類”回答

1. 詞匯替換

l 用genre代替type

A genre is a particular type of literature, painting, music, film, or other art form which people consider as a class because it has special characteristics.

相信很多同學(xué)都認(rèn)識(shí)genre這個(gè)詞啦，在說到文學(xué)、電影、音樂、繪畫等的種類題材時(shí)，都可以用它哦。

l 用sci-fi代替science fiction口語中巧用簡化形式會(huì)讓你更加native和fluent!同理，可以用sitcom來代替situation comedy.

2. 當(dāng)你要說一本“非常好的”書時(shí)，除了用interesting, fascinating,…各種形容詞形容它。其實(shí)還有更好的辦法。

l 名詞：page-turner(page+turn er，翻頁翻到根本停不下來!)

例句：That book is a real page-turner!

l 動(dòng)詞：grab me from the first page(第一頁就把我“抓住”了，意思立馬被吸引住了，從此無法自拔)

例句：Les Miserables grabbed me from the first page.

學(xué)會(huì)了嗎?快去升級(jí)自己的語料庫吧。
