相信很多烤鸭拿到了每个季度的预测后,都会有这样一个感受:预测那么多,如何能备(背)完?尤其是备考期不到一个月的考生,更是忙得焦头烂额。老师将在本文中重点说一说如何短时间内高效备考看似零散的Part One和Part Three所有题目。
首先要明确一点:雅思是语言技能考试,考官在意的并不是你每道题回答了哪些具体内容,而是你怎么答的:是自然流畅条理清晰地回答,还是磕磕巴巴想到什么说什么?是正确灵活运用了不同句子结构,还是只会用简单句,好不容易用个复杂句还用错了?真实考场中Part One和Part Three部分,往往是一道题目刚答完,下一道题接踵而至,那么如何在这样一个高强度的环境下,从容应对各种问题,避免脑袋短路?
先不说预测题库中你是不是每道题目都有思路,按照预测逐个题目毫无章法地准备显然耗时耗力,也不会根本解决上述问题。其实,将Part One和Part Three所有问题进行分类,只有12种题型(见表1)。也就是说,尽管话题不同,很多题目提问方式其实是有共性的。这也就意味着,Part One和Part Three这部分,我们要攻克的是这12种题型,而不是不计其数的具体题目。笔者根据每种题型的特点和考点,总结了21种好操作的答题方法/结构,帮你轻松应对Part One和Part Three所有题型,而且有些答题方法适用于不同题型。
