本次考试考题精选范例解析：

1. Do you think computers have changed your life a lot?Analysis:该考题为 part 1 topic computers 中的一道题，该题旨在考察考生对于电脑改变生活的具体体现的描述。考生在考虑“change”的时候，需要对改变比较敏感，即除了比较明显的积极方面的改变，如使人们的生活更加方便之类的通俗之外，还要考虑一下消极方面的意义，如时下比较热议的电脑影响了人们的正常生活，使得人们忽略了人际关系的维系。Sample answer:When it comes to the changes that computer brings to my life, Ishould say that computers really make my life more convenient. Forexample, I can get a lot of useful information online, and use thebooking system online to enhance my efficiency. However,computers also generate some negative effects to me, such likesometimes I would waste some time in browsing ad web pages.

2. What type of dances do you know?Analysis:本题为 2016 年 1 月份的新话题 dancing, 该题旨在考察舞蹈的类型。词汇补充：jazz 爵士舞ballet 芭蕾舞tap 踢踏舞hip hop 街舞rumba 伦巴tango 探戈waltz 华尔兹cha cha 恰恰folk dance 名族舞belly 肚皮舞Sample answer:Actually, I know many types of dance, such like jazz, ballet, streetdance and tap. I think dancing is a great way to express emotions,as well as a healthy pastime for me. When I was 8 years old, I beganto learn dancing, so that’s why I get in touch this field.雅思口语趋势分析及备考指导：本次考试为过年后的第一场考试，本场考题范围稳定，接下来谈一谈具体的备考步骤。常常有学生会问这样的问题“老师，我口语到底应该怎么准备？ ”其实，这是一个比较大的问题。的确，许多考生已经意识到了自己在口语方面的薄弱，也意识到该在考前在口语方面多花功夫，可是，力朗阁海外考试研究中心Research Academy for Foreign Language Examinations气到底往哪里使却有点摸不清门道。有些非常勤奋的中国考生会在考前花大量的时间将每一篇口语话题写下来，然后背熟， 但是最终却没有得到满意的结果。有些是在茫茫题海的中途放弃了， 有时虽然写了很多，发现最终不容易背熟且考试过程中容易出现张冠李戴，或者由于死记硬背造成的背诵痕迹过重，往往都效果不佳。

接下来，我们就来看一看的口语备战方法到底是怎样的？

Step 1 话题分类关于备考雅思口语的步，全盘统揽一下目前的整体考题范围会是一个不错的开端，将其做一个简单的分类。结合上述的换题趋势，相信本次趋势仍然可以按照我们历年来一直用的一个规律来总结“换汤不换药”。纵向对比的话，今年的许多考题仍然是延续上一季度的出题思路，只是稍加修饰和改变，就变成了今年的新面孔。横向分类的话，我们也可以从一堆看似不想干的话题中找出规律。当然，分类的方式想必根据每位考生思路的差异也是各不相同的。所以，也就是说，备考时如果考生能够有针对性对话题做出思考和归类，那么你已经走出成功的步了。

Step 2 素材的准备相对来说，第二步就是比较枯燥乏味的一步了。雅思口语的话题中，许多是比较贴近生活类的话题。所以，在素材的准备中，也可以从生活中发掘一些细节来发挥。比较的方式为：每天记录一段语音日记，约 2min 左右。

Step 3 地道表达的积累对于地道表达积累有效的一种方式，个人一直比较推崇通过看英语电影，从场景表达中获取地道表达。这种方法比起单独拿起一本口语书强压硬背来的更加轻松有趣些。有人说，一部好的电影会精致到每一句台词，所以，考生们不妨在平时欣赏电影的时候去关注台词中的地道表达，做一定的积累。例如： “everything’s gonna go south on you”该表达指的是“下降，变坏，数量以及质量的降低”。该表达出自于近期一部很火的美国大片《 Martian》（火星救援），在接近结局的时候，获 救的男主角说了这么一段耐人寻味的话：“This is space,it doesn’tcooperate. At some point, everything’s gonna go south on you andyou are going say, this is it. This is how I end.”（这就是太空，它不会迁就你，在有些时候，一切都会变得越来越糟糕，你只能坚强地去面对，这就是我如何解决困境的方法）这样的表达完全可以用于表达自己曾经遭遇过的困境。例如，在话题“Describe a long-distance walk”中，假设的场景为爬山，那么想必在过程中肯定会遇到各种困难，我们可以表达为：In the way of downhill, I went the wrong way, so I spent total 2 hoursto search for the correct path. When I felt exhausted and things evenseemed going south on me thatthe sky’s getting dark.（下山的过程中我走错了路，我花了足足 2 小时试图找到对的路。正当我精疲力竭的时候，更糟的是天快黑了。）

Step 4表演式练习在积累好素材的基础上，最后一步也是比较关键的一步，那就是表演式的练习。考生需要在考前把这些准备好的素材模拟观众的前提下多练习，控制速度，语音语调，做到更加表情自然，减少死记硬背的不不自然的感觉，真正达到是在与考官交流的感觉。本文对 16 年第一季度考题的出题趋势做了简单分析，针对当前情况，为考生们建议了一些有效的备考方案，相信在有效的准备下，考生们一定会有大的突破。
