People人物篇(高频词汇+高分思路)
这类话题按理说不算难,可是考生遇到这些话题,分数却时常不理想。总结一下,发现最大的问题在于考生在描述人物时容易走两个极端:一是用绝大部分时间描述人的外貌,而且语言也相当平常;二是完全忽略外貌,只叙述一些跟该人物有关的事情,而且内容毫无逻辑。
真正好的答案一定是描述与叙述的结合,这是雅思口语考察的最重要的两项能力。所以,推荐给大家一个被考官认可的好的思路:
高分思路 | 高频词汇 |
1.个人基本信息(身份,名字,年龄) | associate professor: 副教授 accountant: 会计 actor: 男演员 actress: 女演员 anchor: 新闻主播 announcer: 广播员 architect: 建筑师 artist: 艺术家 astronaut: 宇航员. attendant: 服务员 auditor: 审计员 airline representative: 地勤人员 |
2.外貌 | Medium build 中等身材 Salt-and-pepper hair 花白的头发 Sparkling eyes 有神的眼睛 Has a nice figure 女性身材好的 Average-looking 外表平常的 Well-built 男性身材健美的 Rosy cheeks 红红的脸颊 Slim 偏瘦的、苗条的 Thick eyebrows 浓眉 Good-looking 好看的 Chubby 胖乎乎的 Graceful 优雅的 pudgy 矮胖的 urbane 斯文的 |
3.性格 | Approachable 好接近的 Knowledgeable 知识丰富的 Articulate 口才好的 Optimistic 乐观的 Athletic 体育好的 Open-minded 开明的 Passionate 有热情的 Ambitious 志向远大的 Sociable 喜欢社交的 Dynamic 有活力的 Generous 慷慨的 Modest 谦虚的 Frugal 节俭的 Hospitable = very welcoming 热情好客的 |
4.相关的故事或经历 (考察的是学生的叙述能力,往往可以描述一个人的爱好或特长相关的故事) | 一些关于爱好的表达: Versatile 多才多艺的 Prolific(指挥家、歌手等) 多产的 Cooking 烹饪 Collect antiques 收藏古董 Sing Karaoke 唱卡拉OK Do taekwondo 练跆拳道 Do sunbathing 做日光浴 Skateboarding 玩滑板 A movie buff 电影迷 Play mahjong 玩麻将 Hike/do hiking 远足 Play chess 下象棋 Do taichi 打太极 Jog 慢跑 |
普通人
An old man I’d like to talk about is my next door neighbor who is at his 60s (年龄)and used to be an university professor(职业). I don’t know exactly about his real name, but because he likes smiling, we call him “Mr. Smile”.
本部分完成了基本信息的描述,让考官很清晰的了解这个人的背景,他才有兴趣继续听下去。
Mr. Smile is a man of medium build with salt-and-pepper hair and sparkling eyes. What’s special about him is that he always wears a friendly smile on his face, which makes him very approachable. I guess that’s partly why his students are so crazy about his lectures.
本段完成对描述能力的展示。尽量少用big, small 等稀松平常的词汇,那只会让考官怀疑你的词汇量和语言能力,真正好的描述是要找出人物外表的“特点”,如果能有故事细节支撑,就能更“传神”啦~
As an knowledgeable, articulate, and most importantly, optimistic old man, Mr. Smile usually impresses others a lot by his hearty laughter. To some young people, his words are always motivating as well as convincing.
本部分是对性格的展现。另外,同学们习惯使用的 “kind” “nice” “happy”等词和一些单纯的并列句真的已经太“俗”了。请参考上文的用词和句式。
Mr. Smile used to study in Japan for 7 years. He came back to China when he was 26. Because of the living in Tokyo, he is really good at cooking Japanese food, especially sushi. I was invited to share his cooking before, and I was shocked by his sushi that was so fresh and delicate. I even doubt the authentic flavor can win some restaurant chefs’.
最后这部分内容是讲了一个关于老人的故事,展现了考生的叙事能力。故事可以奇特也可以普通,但一定要带着感情讲出来,目的是能够感染考官。
