下面我們以具體的話題為例,來進行簡單的分析。
話題卡內容:
Describe a time you watched the sky
You should say:
When this happened
Who you were with
What you saw
And how you felt about watching the sky
考生拿到話題卡,首先要明白答題思路就在話題卡之上,只要仔細閱讀便能夠知道答題的要點和思路。但是很多考生卻拿到話題卡只看話題,其他的都忽略,然后冥思苦想怎么答,從何開始,以至于浪費了答題時間。所以話題卡內容一定要吃透。來看看上述答題卡內容:When this happened發(fā)生在什么時候;Who you were with你和誰;What you saw你們看到了什么;And how you felt about watching the sky仰望天空你的感受如何?因此,考生在作答的時候可以從這幾點入手。下面來看看具體的范文參考:
Ok then, well what I’ve decided to talk to you about is the time that I watched a solar eclipse, which was pretty spectacular actually, it was a total eclipse, not just a partial one. And I’d actually go so far as saying it was one of the coolest things I’ve ever seen.交代第三個問題,講述的是看日食的時刻,pretty spectacular actually。
But anyway, as for when this happened, well I can’t actually remember when it was exactly, it was quite a while ago, but I guess it was probably around um… three or four years ago, something like that. I do remember the time of day quite clearly though. It was late morning, sometime around 11-ish, and basically, because it was such a big thing, you know, like a once in a lifetime occurrence, pretty much everyone left what they were doing to come out onto the street and watch it. So where I was standing, there must have been, like, a hundred of us all looking up at the sky to try and get a glimpse of the eclipse.陳述第一、二個問題,大概三四年前,具體的時間記不清楚了,在街上偶然看到的。
And it was incredible, because one moment the sky was bright and sunny, just like any normal day, and then the next, it went completely dark, you know, like, pitch black, when the sun disappeared behind the moon. So it felt pretty surreal, seeing the sky in darkness at midday for a few moments. And um.. I remember I actually got goose pimples watching it, you know, I was in total awe! 描述當時的壯觀景象,以及自己的激動心情。
So uh.. Yeah, I don’t really know what else to say about it! It was just really, really cool to watch, and I’m sure I’ll remember it for many years to come. Thanks for listening!簡單闡述自己當時的心情……
這樣看來上述的四個問題均有涉及,雖然順序并不像我們想象的那樣按照順序一一回答,但是卻非常完整,符合事件類話題陳述方式,交代時間、地點、具體事件等。所以考生并不比拘泥于按照話題卡順序作答,而是要完整的回答話題卡內容、陳述清楚即可。

It was quite a while ago – it was quite a long time ago
something like that – 差不多這個樣子
11-ish = about 11 (o’clock) (SUFFIX (用于表示時間、日期、年齡的詞之后)表示“…前后的”,“…左右的”) -ish is added to words referring to times, dates, or ages to form words which indicate that the time or age mentioned is approximate
a once in a lifetime occurrence - 一生一次發(fā)生的事情
pretty much everyone – 差不多所有人
there must have been, like, a hundred of us – 我們應該有100多人吧
