我們以“描述你在特殊場合穿著的衣服”這個話題為例。如果僅僅描述一件衣服,那么可說的內(nèi)容很少。但是如果我們更加專注于如何描述這件衣服的背景故事和增添一些比較地道的描述,那么實際的效果是大不相同的。僅以下文為例,供廣大考生參考。
Describe a piece of clothing you wear on a special occasion
Key points: Graduation, school, pink dress, accessory,
Actually, in my high school, students are required to wear the schooluniforms each day at school. Everyone looks the same to a great extent.【程度的描述】No one's special. So after a while, we all have the similar physical features.Baggy pants, oversized jackets, and big glasses on our faces, 【生動的描述】ofcourse【自然的語序】. Lucky enough【選取比較自然的連接詞】, we had a graduation ceremony, and thehigh school allowed us to wear something casual 【轉(zhuǎn)換詞性】on that very day.
For this special day, I picked up a really nice dress. My mum and I foundit at an elegant shopping mall, which was stunning in the storewindow.【還是細節(jié)描寫,而且增添了背景故事】 I had my eyes on that dress immediately. It was a pinkdress with a black leather belt, which was neither too fancy nor tooformal.【加入形容的部分】 It boasts an graceful cutting style with a U-neck shape.Somehow, it reminded me of a typical Chanel dress.【加入了西方文化背景知識】 My mum said itmight be too mature for my age, but I believe it was OK.【自然地加入自己的態(tài)度和看法】 Nowthink about it, I guess I was eager to be an adult at the time, so wearing adress that pretty could significantly improve my confidence as a 18-yr-old younglady. Besides, the color was perfect for my skin tone.
Actually, a look is never finished without the rightaccessories.【除了衣服以外增加一些小細節(jié),有助于豐富所描述的整體內(nèi)容】 I chose to wear the pearl necklace anda really nice pair of beige 【稍微“高級”一點點的詞匯就可以】leather shoes. Not surprisingly, Igot more than my fair share of compliments 【地道的描述方式】at the graduation ceremonyon that day.
在part2當中非常不建議學生背誦范文。我們可以做的是平時多多積累好的表達方式和各種地道的詞匯及用法,然后盡可能在口語練習中進行不斷地練習和提高。通過持續(xù)的練習,每個學生在自己的基礎(chǔ)上有不同程度的提高。
