最近，听很多考生反映，在考试过程中，尤其是口语第三部分，看到考官不断皱眉头，出现疑惑的表情。 针对这一情况，考官表示原因是他们感到十分疑惑，总感觉考生的答案有些“文不对题”。不知道是由于考生没有听懂词汇，还是文化背景差异的问题。

其实，文化背景的差异对于雅思口语考试的影响比重并不是那么大，
而是口语考试中有很多高频陷阱，你有可能已经掉进了去了
今天，雅思中国网海外考试研究中心的吴艳老师就为大家列举高频出错题目，并为大家一一讲解怎样在今后的考试中避免这样的情况，主要针对雅思口语第三部分。
赶紧拿好笔记本好好总结，不然再掉进陷阱可别怪没有事先提醒奥！
首先，我们先来看下面的几个口语问题，请同学们试试回答下面的问题，看看能否在短暂的反应时间内，准确而比较完整地答出来。
人物类：
人物类：
Do you think people’s relationship with their neighbors today is thesame as it was in the past?
Do you prefer to have one or two close friends or a wide circle offriends？
What kinds of people do children in China want to be similar to whenthey were young?
What are the differences between men and women when they see a color?
What are the differences between buying something in a shopping malland buying something online?
Do you think films have much influence on young people?
Are the educational facilities in the countryside as good as those inthe cities?
Tell me some movies or music about history in your country.
Do you think parents should stop children from thinking too big?
Can people learn how to be happy?
Do you think music can be a source of pollution?
人物类：
Do you think people’s relationship with their neighborstoday is the same as it was in the past?
在这个问题中，强调的是现在与过去的一个比较，是否一致，提问的是邻里关系。
很多考生感到无从下手，因为邻里关系是我们考虑地很少的一个话题，因此容易答成“邻里之间相互帮助、或者是邻里之间比较陌生、不太沟通等等”。
这样回答忽略了比较，过去与现在的比较是答题的关键，我们要先说明是否一致，再说明若不一致的话具体体现在哪些方面，使用例子来证明，然后再说原因，这样才是一份比较好的答案。
Sample: No, I don’t think it’s the same as that in the past. In the past,people had good relationship with neighbors, they chat with neighbors, haddinner or watched TV together with them on special holidays, but now they areunfamiliar with neighbors. It is because in the past, people lived incourtyards, they shared things with neighbors like the bathroom, the space foractivities, and even only one TV set was owned in a family in a wholecourtyard. But now they live in apartments, they do not have to share, so theywant privacy.
What kinds of people do children in China want to be similarto when they were young?
在这个题目中，关键的部分是“什么样的人”、“想与之相同”两个点。很多同学认为应该答成“诚实的人、乐观的人、勇敢的人”；
另外一个思路是答成“明星、导演、作家”。
我们先来问同学们：kinds of people应该怎样定义。
按照人格来分，可以是各种好的人格、人品；而按照职业来分，可以分为明星、导演、作家等，那么，这个题怎样答才合适呢？没有小孩子希望成为“不诚实、不乐观和不勇敢的人”，所以说人格、人品肯定不合适，而且这样答太宽泛了。
也就是说，这个题主要是说职业或是社会身份，然后再简单给出原因即可。
Sample: Well,children want to be similar to the great people in their mind, like teachers,scientists, sports stars or engineers. Because some of the children areinfluenced by their parents’ jobs, they regard parents as their heroes andmodels. Some of them just think stars or scientists are cool people.
再来看第二类，物品类：
物品类：
What are the differences between men and women when they see acolor?
这个题目是比较难的，很多同学对于这个题到底问哪方面感到困惑。
其实，在雅思口语问题中，总会有问题让你感到困惑，因为考官问问题的方式是不拘一格的。甚至有时候他们是即兴发问，不要太纠结什么样的答案才是所谓的标准答案，我们只要按照理解，答得比较清楚，让考官明白，再配上些例子便于考官理解我们想说什么就可以了。看到颜色时，男性和女性看到同一种颜色有什么不同，也就是问不同的喜好和想法。
因此，我们可以从这一方面入手：男性看到一种颜色时，想到的是是否喜欢，然后是选择这个颜色使用在什么东西上，然后女性则有什么不同。如果想成男性喜欢什么颜色而女性喜欢什么颜色，就偏题了。
我们可以这样回答：
Sample: Men and women have differences on the taste of color. When they see acolor, like blue, they will have different thoughts. Men like blue, and theyprefer blue back pack, blue T-shirt. When women see blue, they will think if itis the prevailing color for the whole year, maybe they will choose bluehigh-heels or swimming suits.
What are the differences between buying something in a shoppingmall and buying something online?
在这个题目中，很多同学答成了shopping mall的好处坏处，或者是online的好处坏处，这样答没有完全错误，但是忽略了一点，differences的题目要求学生找出其中的区别，两个内容相对着说，而不是分开，各自回答其优缺点。如果大家听到shopping mall和online就立刻作答，就有些偏题了。我们需要在几个方面来对比两种不同购物方式的区别：比如价格，方便程度，产品质量等等。
Sample: There are differences between buying things in shopping mall oronline. First, it is much cheaper to buy the same thing online than in theshopping mall. I think it is because of the rent fee or other high cost inshopping mall. Second, it is convenient to shop online, I mean, you can surfthe Internet on the bus, at home or in restaurant, but when you go to theshopping mall, you have to go far distance. But the quality of products isgenerally better than that online.
Do you think films have much influence on young people?
这个题目中，问的是对于年轻人来说电影有没有很大的影响，那么对于小孩子的常用思路：媒体暴力、小孩子潜意识的模仿就不是重点了。
Young people一般指的是年龄在十几岁到三十几岁的人，可以积极、消极影响都说一下，大家不要完全把young people说成children,或者包含children。
Sample: Yes, films have much influence on young people. Most of films areeducational, they teach some historical knowledge or encourage people to learnthe positive theme like being optimistic or strong, pursuing true love.However, some of the violence in films have harmful influence on young people.Violence shots are exciting, but we’d better keep away from them.
地点类：
Are the educational facilities in the countryside asgood as those in the cities?
同样，这个题又是比较，因此大家要记住类比着说。
此外，很多同学没有听清楚是facilities就开始作答了。什么是facilities？是否包含老师、学生成绩和考试制度？这些不属于facilities。
那么，大家如果答出这些，考官就会判定为，要么你不认识facilities这个词，要么你的回答偏题了。因此考官就会出现疑惑的表情，甚至有的考官会说：Sorry, I meanfacilities. 建议大家答出实验器材、电脑、多媒体教室、操场、图书馆等等即可。
Sample: Actually no. I don’t think educational facilities are as good as thosein cities. There are not advanced equipments in the laboratory like microscope,and not enough computers or multimedia classrooms, that’s why we all believeschools in cities are better.
Tell me some movies or music about history in yourcountry.
这个题目比较难，很多学生不知道或者根本没有看过关于历史的电影，大家喜欢轻松愉快的喜剧或爱情剧，惊悚刺激的恐怖片，或者新奇的科幻电影，却唯独不关注历史题材的影片。音乐也是如此。
那么，能否说抗日战争时期的呢？或者更早的战争等题材呢？其实，首先你要保证可以说出比较多的内容，不至于辞穷；其次，可以说战争题材，其实有关历史人物的会更容易一些，比如关于屈原，关于各朝代皇帝，或是关于近代人物的都可以。
请看下面的范例：
We have a lot of movies and songs about history, like the history ofwar period, and historical figures. I remember a famous movie called Quyuan. Ittells the story of a famous Chinese poet Quyuan. He loved his country verymuch, but he was alienated by the royal family in that dynasty. He witnessedhis country was invaded, he wrote poems and suicide in Miluo River. Today’sDragon Boat Day is to memorize this great poet. That’s a small part of Chineseculture.
事件类：
Do you think parents should stop children from thinking too big?
这个题比较难。很多同学不知道应该答yes还是no, 因为感觉两方面都不好答。
首先，什么是thinking toobig？加了too这个程度，也就是说比较不合理的想法了，因为在英文中too一般表示程度过了，不合适了这样的含义。当谈到父母加以干涉时，学生的常用思路就是感觉不应该，因此就矛盾了，不知道这个题该怎么答。
其实，我们可以从too big举例子入手。怎样属于thinking toobig呢？比如说，小孩子想当一名宇航员，这个想法就比较难以实现；还有小孩子想当一个国家领导人，这样的想法也是属于too big。有什么坏处呢？主要是难以实现，因此中途会放弃，这样会养成容易知难而退的习惯。
其实，回答yes会比较容易一些。
Sample: Yes, I think parents should stop children from thinking too big.Because children are not mature, they make themselves unrealistic ambitions orplans. It is acceptable, but if the ambitions or plans are too big, they havetoo many difficulties when they want to prepare for these. When they know theyhave to abandon halfway, or it is impossible for them, they will feeldisappointed. They may easily abandon something, even the reasonable ambitionsin their future.
Can people learn how to be happy?
这个题目通常会让学生感到辞穷，因为learn是一个理解上的障碍。请问，learn的意思是什么？如果你认为是学习文化课，那么就太狭义了。learn有很多的途径，比如说通过自学、听别人说、自己想办法或自创都可以这样理解。还有，happy的含义比较广泛，一时间被问到会感觉比较难想到具体的内容。
其实，我们可以类比为另外一个题：
What are the ways of relaxing yourself?
这个题是不是容易得多呢？大家都能想到听音乐、看电影、读书、做运动、旅游等等，其实，这些也属于learn to be happy。
我们可以这样回答，同时，也可以讲一点人生哲学，如果以你的英文水平可以描述清楚的话，可以为自己加分。比如说，如果我们对目前的生活感到很满足，就会觉得很快乐；如果我们很不容易得到一个成功，就会觉得很快乐。
看下面的范例：
Yes, people can learn how to be happy. They can find ways to relaxthemselves. They can listen to music, play games or sports, watch movies orhave parties. People can treat themselves well. What’s more, if they feelsatisfied to their current life, and do not always complain something, theywill feel happier. I’ve read it from a book that if we get a success afterpainstaking work, we will feel very happy. In these ways, people can gainhappiness.
Do you think music can be a source of pollution?
music等于pollution? 这是学生觉得不可思议的话题。因为大家对于常见的音乐类思路，比如Part 1Do you like music? What kind of music do you like? Why people ofdifferent ages like different music? 这些话题中，music都以正面示人，毫无负面影响。其实，我们习惯于答一些音乐可以使人放松、使人兴奋等等的话题，却忽略了pollution这样严重的消极字眼。在口语课堂上，有的学生听到pollution, 就立刻说自己不知道该怎么答了。大家有没有想过广场舞的音乐？有没有想过噪声污染这个话题呢？有没有想过酒吧附近居民的感想？有没有想过那些唱歌跑调的人给我们造成的伤害？
那么，在这些层面上，music就是pollution。我们可以这样回答，既轻松有趣，又可以逻辑清晰而辩证：
Sample: Yes, sometimes. We all know music is soft or exciting, it is good forus. But when the music is too loud, especially in public, it is a source ofpollution, that’s noise pollution. The square dance music, the pub music, aretoo loud and disturb the residents nearby. I’ve watched a piece of news of thecomplaint from a community near a pub. Music will be terrible if the singersare off the key. In karaoke, my friends, some of my friends are off-keysingers. Their music is undoubtedly pollution.
综上，对于雅思口语中高频易错的陷阱大家都清楚了吗？
我们来理一理：
其实，大家只要平时多思考问题，结合雅思写作中关于社会话题的分析，多积累素材，就不会落入这些高频陷阱。
