2017雅思考试口语解析三

　　Please describe an event that resulted in a positive change in your life

　　You should say:

　　When it happened

　　Where it happened

　　What the change was

　　And explain how you benefited from this change

　　误区：

　　首先拿到题目之后我们应该迅速定位一个describe，三个say和一个explain，划出关键词positive change in YOUR life, when, where, what, how YOU benefited。

　　雅思考试中，划出下划线永远是要潜意识里就要这样去做的，哪怕在口语考试中，没有条件划出下划线，我们也要有意识的关注这些词，并及时把关键信息迅速地写在题板上。

　　在这里，尤其要注意是你的生活里发生的事情，如果拿某些新闻事件就不是那么贴合或者直接;还有就是你需要阐释出你是如何从中获益的，这就更说明要关注其实你在整个答案中，起到了很大程度上的作用，事情应该围绕自己来展开，叙述自己的一个好的经历，和解释你从中获得了哪些。

　　思路：

　　很多同学拿到题目没有太多的思路，这是因为我们不太擅长平日在生活中积累一些“夸耀”、“炫耀”自己的例子，用的总是别人的，古人的例子。所以当说自己的优点，自己质的改变的时候，往往不是特别好开口。其实这只是同学们没有意识到你其实是有物料可以表达的。人生每一个大大小小的阶段都是你成长的过程。

　　那我们来看看有哪些常见的素材可以为我们所用。比如：

　　记录自己的花销keep the accounts，得知不当家不知柴米贵，从此不再浪费;

　　每天运动或者定期运动exercise regularly，让你养成了良好的作息习惯，身体健康;

　　练字practise calligraphy，改变自己的心态，增长自己的自信、增加自己的展示机会;

　　早起rise with the lark，可以让你充分利用一天的时间，生活品质的提高，等等。

　　在表达上，我们除了要关注每一个点，不要漏说;其次，仍然要关注一下基本时态，是一般过去式。我们很多的考生说着说着就从过去变到现在，会犯一些不必要的硬伤，请同学们一定要注意，撑过两分钟!

　　下面我们用一个通过练字，产生改变的参考答案~

　　我们的一分钟笔记可以记录如下：

　　primary school, grade 2

　　at my own home

　　calligraphy: poor to excellent handwriting

　　prizes and praises; my first job (handwriting is just like your personality)

　　Back to my primary school, grade 2, I was good at every subject I learnt at that time. Actually, the courses then were elementary so we’ve got quite a few classmates who could get high marks in the exams as I did. However, every time my head teacher announced the results, my name has never been especially mentioned to commend just because of the poor handwriting on my paper.

　　With time went by, I got annoyed by my handwriting then I determined to learn calligraphy in my own home since my father was quite good at it. Therefore, I practiced really hard and used more than 10 copybooks for calligraphy. Under the help of my father, I improved so fast that I even, to some extent, got addicted to writing for more than 3 hours at a time. It turned out to be quite worthy because I was much more confident of my handwriting and felt proud of it.

　　As a result, I fully used it to get advantages from. Honestly, I got a lot like winning prizes in school and being admired by classmates. Naturally, my teachers and other parents praised me a lot, which made me happy. I know they are a little bit superficial but I just enjoy it until the day I benefited from my handwriting to get my first job. Perhaps it was the influence of the first impression, but I did get the chance to participate in a very important module in the company just because the interviewer thought I might have a very good character and capability to do things. You know in China we get an old saying: “Your handwriting is just like your personality.” It simply means someone’s writing style resembles his innate qualities. I think I really should thank my father and my hard work then.
