Do you like science?Analysis:2016 年 1-4 月份新题，难度中等。 这个问题看似很简单，但是许多同学会纠结该题中 science 的意思，可能是指科学，也可能是指理科。其实在这里到底指哪个意思不重要，重要的是要顺畅的回答下去。如果你理解成了科学，那么考官接下来会继续问 are there anyscience museums in your hometown? 考官会根据你的回答进行延伸。如果你理解成了理科，那么考官会根据理科和文科的问题来进行询问，所以两者皆可。 参考如下：Sample Answer:理科： I like science more than arts. In my high school, I got relativelyhigh scores in my science subjects, like biology, physics or chemistry.Maybe because I need to think more than to recite when studyingscience.科学： Yes, kind of. Like, if I choose to see movies, I would like to gofor a science fiction which is more interesting due to its unpredictablestoryline. Also, science is what can account for the mysteriousphenomenon in our surroundings, so I can learn more about theworld and the human race through learning it.雅思口语趋势分析和备考指导此次考题基本是 1-2 月份考题的延续，没有太大的惊喜出现。从难度上来讲， 1 月换题月出现的新题也基本就是之前老题的变形，所以烤鸭们不用担心， 只不过大家在准备题目的过程中，不要惧怕新题，一定要学会灵活处理旧题与新题之间的关系，这样可以做到事半功倍。 举个例子，Describe a place you visited that has been affected bypollution.此题与环境法的题目其实可以算是同类题，环境法的题是在去年 9-12 月份的题库中出现的，在阐述环境法的时候，大多考生会考虑治理 foggy weather/haze 雾霾天气，那么同样的，此题也可以从雾霾天气入手，针对雾霾天气出现的原因或解决办法都可以放到此题来说。同样，Describe a time you watched the sky.许多考生碰到这道仰望天空的题目时都很迷茫， 不知道该说什么，其实雾霾天气导致雾蒙蒙的天空很容易让人产生深思，同样可以用雾霾天气的案例来阐述。
