小编:长安 194四月的雅思考试为五月换题前的最后一个月,同学们能看到的题库已是很完善的版本。总体来说,本期话题与考生的日常生活与常用物品的关联度比较高,需要多思考去切合描述自己的真实经历。苏州环球教育周庆怡老师认为准备过程中,同学们可将已备的话题和较为新的题目灵活修改,编写成新的版本,加强记忆。
【Part 1-3真题点评】
Part 1:第一部分与考官完成的为必考题 work or study,accommodation,hometown,同学们要流利地向考官简要地介绍:自己的工作或学习情况、学校或家里的住所和家乡城市。
目标高分的同学在这部分描述自己个人情况的话题中,还可适当加入习语和英语小词,对比不同时间段和对比不同人物或地点,令讲述内容更加生动地道。
Part 2:根据收集和整理题材,第二部分经历和物品类较多。考生在第二部分的作答前推荐及时笔记,竖着罗列出重点,方便讲述中纵向看清楚,边看边思考添加内容。串联话题中,虽然很多是可以套用一个话题对象,但务必突出被选话题的重点。
如下方的例文也可应对本季考题:好消息,糟糕的服务,投诉后结果满意的事,改变的计划,参加的聚会,买了没用的东西,捡到丢失的东西,急需的东西,但需要考生按照新话题的针对性地修改,避免考官认为是照搬。
Part 3:第三部分与考官的互动讨论,考生需注意专业学术词汇和论证句型的表达,同时还需要考生对深入的问题进行有逻辑的辩论。对考官互动过程中提出的追问问题,不要立场不稳,只要自己的答案是有理由的,可坚持自己的立场。

【原创范例】
Last autumn I was taking a course in another city and one day I received a message that my dear aunt was going to get married soon. Because the wedding colour was blue, I ordered a specially designed blue dress for the party from a boutique in my hometown which I used to go to, and sent my requirements to the shopkeeper by email in advance.
However, when I received the dress a week before the wedding, I was astonished to find out it was made much smaller than the size that I provided. What was worse, I was told the tailor went on a holiday after he finished the work, so it was impossible for me to get another one done before the event.
I was very anxious. Suddenly, I remembered a picture of my close friend Yam on Instagram wearing a navy blue dress on her parents 25th wedding anniversary . She's a similar size to me, so I decided to phone her to ask if she could lend me the clothes for my aunt's party. After learning about what happened, Fei lent me her dress immediately.
The blue dress was a high-neck floral dress with keyhole back detail. It looked gorgeous and really matched the wedding colour. My aunt was very pleased to see me in it and we took photos with the groom and family members. I was so thankful to Yam for giving me a hand at that time.
