环球托业介绍雅思口语描述人物题的高分思路

　　 　　雅思口语考试中，描述人物是很常见的题目。这类话题按理说不算难，可是考生遇到这些话题，分数却时常不理想。总结一下，发现最大的问题在于考生在描述人物时容易走两个极端：一是用绝大部分时间描述人的外貌，而且语言也相当平常;二是完全忽略外貌，只叙述一些跟该人物有关的事情，而且内容毫无逻辑。 　　真正好的答案一定是描述与叙述的结合，这是雅思口语考察的最重要的两项能力。所以，推荐给大家一个被考官认可的好的思路： 　　1. 个人基本信息(身份，名字，年龄) 　　2. 外貌 　　3. 性格 　　4. 相关的故事或经历 　　例子： 　　An old man 　　An old man I’d like to talk about is my next door neighbor who is at his 60s. I don’t know exactly about his real name, but because he likes smiling, we call him “Mr. Smile”. 本部分完成了基本信息的描述，让考官很清晰的了解这个人的背景，他才有兴趣继续听下去。 　　Mr. Smile is a man of medium build with short, silver hair and healthy complexion. What’s special about him is that he has a pair of pretty big ears which make him look very funny. 本段完成对描述能力的展示。尽量少用big, small 等稀松平常的词汇，那只会让考官怀疑你的词汇量和语言能力，真正好的描述是要找出人物外表的“特点”，以此达到“传神”的目的，这也是语言的较高境界。 　　As an easy-going and optimistic old man, Mr. Smile usually impresses others a lot by his hearty laughter. To some young people, his words are always motivating as well as convincing. 本部分是对性格的展现。另外，同学们习惯使用的 “kind” “nice” “happy”等词和一些单纯的并列句真的已经太“俗”了。请参考上文的用词和句式。 　　Mr. Smile used to study in Japan for 7 years. He came back to China when he was 26. Because of the living in Tokyo, he is really good at cooking Japanese food, especially sushi. I was invited to share his cooking before, and I was shocked by his sushi that was so fresh and delicate. I even doubt the authentic flavor can win some restaurant chefs’. 　　最后这部分内容是讲了一个关于老人的故事，展现了考生的叙事能力。故事可以奇特也可以普通，但一定要带着感情讲出来，目的是能够感染考官。 　　以此思路，关于人物的卡片就迎刃而解了。 　　更多英语学习内容敬请关注环球托业英语官方网站http://www.englishchat.com.cn/
