八月即將過(guò)半，也意味著(zhù)變題季不遠了。近期口語(yǔ)考試的題目趨勢難度仍圍繞5-8月題庫來(lái)出，這季Part2人物類(lèi)話(huà)題相對較多，所以很多本月考試的同學(xué)發(fā)現在P2被問(wèn)到人物類(lèi)話(huà)題的幾率較高，事件類(lèi)則緊隨其后，這也在一定程度上反映出接下來(lái)口語(yǔ)換題的趨勢，建議大家根據高頻題庫結合個(gè)人經(jīng)歷，認真準備。
【Part 1-3真題點(diǎn)評】
Part1: PART1除常規必考題 Work or study/Accommodation/Hometown以外，新題部分考頻較高的有Social media、Perfume、Borrowing/Lending等，其實(shí)都比較貼近生活，備考時(shí)建議多結合自身經(jīng)歷及感受舉出例子、拓展細節。另外建議在準備Part1的過(guò)程中，針對不同話(huà)題積累一些該領(lǐng)域的常用詞匯，比如Social media話(huà)題中的“熱搜”(trending)、“網(wǎng)紅”(online influencer)等，提升表述精確度的同時(shí)展現出自己的語(yǔ)料專(zhuān)業(yè)性，Lexical resource部分的評分自然會(huì )上升。
Part 2: PART2高頻話(huà)題除了本季題庫中多的人物類(lèi)話(huà)題以外，事件類(lèi)話(huà)題也較為熱門(mén)。事件類(lèi)話(huà)題通常涵蓋的內容較廣，展開(kāi)方式多樣，細節添加甚至可結合人物地等話(huà)題要素一同描述，從而避免“無(wú)話(huà)可說(shuō)”。需注意的是，高頻的事件類(lèi)話(huà)題可能涉及同學(xué)們的經(jīng)歷“盲區”，如“Describe a time the vehicle you were travelling in broke down. ” “Describe a time you received a call from somebody you don't know in the public.”等，建議提前思考，早做準備。
Part 3：PART3考察學(xué)生運用語(yǔ)言表達自己觀(guān)點(diǎn)并進(jìn)行論證的能力，也是整場(chǎng)口語(yǔ)考試反映學(xué)生真實(shí)語(yǔ)言水平及思辨能力的環(huán)節。這部分的備考關(guān)鍵在于平時(shí)多積累答題切入點(diǎn)及相應語(yǔ)料，再配合考場(chǎng)上遵循直陳觀(guān)點(diǎn) 多方論證的答題結構，就能做到處變不驚輕松應對。
【SAMPLE ANSWER】
Describe a time the vehicle you were travelling in broke down.
You should say:
where you were going;
who you were with;
how long it took to fix the vehicle;
and explain how you felt about it.
展開(kāi)全文思路這是一道經(jīng)典的事件類(lèi)話(huà)題的變體，要求考生來(lái)描述一次旅行途中乘坐的交通工具壞了的經(jīng)歷。部分同學(xué)可能覺(jué)得沒(méi)有這種經(jīng)歷，對交通工具壞了的原因也非常陌生，不知如何開(kāi)口。其實(shí)在這道題目的描述中，更應著(zhù)眼于事情發(fā)生的過(guò)程，如花了多長(cháng)時(shí)間修理，全程感受如何等，專(zhuān)業(yè)性的性能問(wèn)題反而不是重點(diǎn)喔。同時(shí)比照本季其他與旅游相關(guān)的話(huà)題如“Describe a time you visited a place with friends.” “Describe an unusual vacation you had.”等，語(yǔ)料準備就更事半功倍啦。

【原創(chuàng )范例】
I got to thinking about an experience during my exchange semester in Melbourne. It was a road trip we planned for a long time, we rented an SUV from a travel agency in Melbourne city. We wanted to do some sightseeing in Tasmania before the semester ended, but we didn't have it inspected when we rented it.
Unluckily, the car overheated half way on the road and couldn’t run again. We felt desperate and did not know what to do, the only method we came up with that time was to call the car renting company.
At first the line was always busy, we waited for 5minutes and finally someone came onto the line. After asking what happened and what we needed from them, they sent two workers and a new car to us. It took them 4hours to get to the place where we were. Then we got a new car and the company took the old one away.
Though we haven’t expected that happen at the first place, the rest of the trip went extremely well and till now, it became our precious memory lifelong.
