专家解读:2010春季雅思口语难题总结
专家解读:2010春季雅思口语难题总结Part 22010年的雅思口语考试继续延续了2009年的出题风格,在考题难度上基本没有改变。
但就2010年春季的考题来看,考题出题趋势的变化还是相当明显的,而且第一,第二,第三部分的考题划分界线不再明晰可辨,很多考生反映第一部分的考题会出现第二、第三部分的相关内容。
但是,无论考题如何变化,考题中旧题的比例还是相当高的。
所以,我们要对出现过的考题做到心中有数,这样,才能在考场中有好的发挥。
2010年春的考题还是有一定的难度的,而学生们在口语考场中最重视的一直就是第二部分卡片题的回答,因为这部分的考题需要学生独立完成,第二部分考试过程中考官几乎是不发话的,所以,如果考生没有做好充足的准备,对考题不熟悉而导致在回答卡片题时有过多的停顿,一定会对考分有很大影响。
而考官又是无法给出过多提示的,所以,对于第二部分的考题,我们一定要在进考场前做到心中有数,特别是一些难题。
所以,在这里,专家将对2010年春季雅思口语第二部分中的难题做一个盘点,供烤鸭们参考。
首先,食物和烹饪一直是雅思口语中较多见的话题之一。
雅思考试对于生活的贴近可见一斑。
但是学生在这个话题上的发挥却常常不尽如人意。
可能是我们的传统教材中很少有涉及到这个话题的,因而学生对相关的词汇较为缺乏。
当然,我们在描述的时候也应尽量选取较为简单的菜肴去描述,而且最好是西式菜肴。
中式菜肴通常以种类繁多,烹饪复杂而著名,有时要把这样的菜介绍清楚已属不易。
这一类考题有以某一道菜为主要考点的:How do you cook this dish? Why is it your favorite dish? 也有以一顿丰盛的菜肴为主要考点的:What did the meal consist of? Was it made for a special occasion? Why was the meal so special? 还有一些考题问的是一些相关的信息,比如烹饪者、烹饪地点、共同进餐的人和喜欢烹饪或这道菜的理由。

2010年雅思口语考试回顾与2011年预测(1)
2010年雅思口语考试回顾与 2011年预测在 2010年即将成为历史的时刻, 北京新东方 VIP 中心雅思口语名师邀您一起“ 温故而知新” 。
回首 2010——周期变化回顾 2010年的雅思口语考试,依然是时而风云变幻,时而风平浪静。
在今年的四月、九月的变题革命中, 相信有不少可怜的烤鸭都被突如其来的新题搞得措手不及。
每一年, 雅思口语考试都会有一些周期性的变化, 小变化为 4个月一变, 大变化经常出现在每年的四月和九月。
而每次在大变化之后的几个月里, 题目就都会相对的固定,不会有太多变动。
今年也是如此,在四月出现了不少新题,而从五六月开始, 一直到八月, 题目都相对稳定。
直到九月, 又出现了一次大的变动, 出现了很多新题, 但是十月到十二月就一直风平浪静。
所以十二月的最后一场考试, 被很多老师和烤鸭们看作是本年度最简单的一场考试, 因为题目几乎全部都是最近考过的。
展望 2011——变题迫在眉睫对于准备 2011年初考试的烤鸭们,一月份的考试是一个小考验,因为圣诞长假过后, 又是一个四个月周期的开始, 一月份很有可能会出现少量新题。
但是烤鸭们可以放心的是, 即使是出现新题, 也不会一下子全部变成新的, 而只是少量。
因此,对于备战明年年初的考试,把年底的题目准备好是非常重要的一步。
第一部分:变化不多,难度不大口语第一部分的变化, 革新会更多体现在喜好与个人习惯的问题上, 比如说喜不喜欢读书啊,去不去博物馆啊,喜不喜欢购物啊,有很多内容还是 2010年末的,也会出现一些新的话题。
但是学习、工作还有家乡这些个“ 四季常青” 的场景话题肯定是会考到的, 所以烤鸭们应该把这些场景都好好练熟! 对于那些会创新的喜好和个人习惯题,则可以用咱们雅思 VIP 课上所讲的方法来应对,应该难度都不大!第二部分:部分新题,大同小异口语第二部分, 则是每一场考试的热门, 也是最有可能发生变化的地方。
一些已经考了无数次的老题也许会退出历史舞台, 或者说不再那么高频地出现, 比如modern building、 traditional story、 a wild animal等等。
