【听力真题】
The early farmers kept
various animals, including cattle and sheep. There’s
also evidence of pigs, but it is possible that these could have been descended
from the native wild species….so we must assume that
form the beginnings of Neolithic farming the number of breeding sheep would
have considerably exceeded three hundred, and the national catleerd must have
been of a similar size…but this method would have
severely restricted the range of the colonising fleets. The sheer volume of
animal transport necessary means it’s unlikely that
this livestock could have been brought from anywhere further than England…the body of the plough would have been of wood and could have been
drawn by people, but it’s also likely that cattle were
used… however, after the axe had been chipped into
shape, they needed water and sand for grinding and polishing, so a high
mountainside wouldn’t have been an appropriate place
for this. So this final stage of the manufacture must have been carried out
close to water and sure enough, there’s ample evidence
of this at coastal sites… after firing, the outside was
often polished. This would have helped the pots of retain water, as they weren’t glazed… this could have been an limitation
of earlier vessels which were made of leather sewn onto wood.

以上我们选取了剑桥6 test3 section
4中的听力原文进行分析,因为场景是关于新石器时代的畜牧,农耕和陶器制作等的讲座,所以需要大量地表达对过去事实的推测,因此我们可以听到频繁地出现了情态动词+动词完成时的结构:
Could+ have done:表示“过去本来可以做某事,但实际上没有做”
Would+ have done:表示对过去事情的假设,意思是“本来会做”
Must+ have done:用于肯定句,表示“过去一定做过某事”,表示一种很有把握的推测。
除此之外,还有类似的结构,如:
should (ought to) have
done :表示过去应该做而(实际)没有做的事情,含有责备或遗憾的语气,意为“本应该……”
needn’t have done:表示过去没有必要做某事,但实际上做了某事
may/might have done:表示对过去情况的一种不太有把握的可能性推测,表示“过去可能/大概已做了某事”
朗阁海外考试研究中心分析认为,在雅思口语真题中,有大量题目都是针对过去发生的事情,所以需要表达对过去的各种推测的语气时,正需要这种结构,例如:
【真题举例】
Part 1:
When was the last time
you gave flowers to someone?
What subjects are you
studying?
Why did you choose to
study that subject?
Part 2:
………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………
Describe an antique or
some other old thing that your family has kept for a long time.
You should say:
what it is
when your family first
got this thing
how long your family has
kept it
and explain why this
thing is important to your family.
雅思口语注意细节扩展 提升表达的丰富性
对于一些描述性的雅思口语part 2题目,不少同学表示可说的内容比较少,所以在2分钟之内的表达显得干巴巴的,没有什么实质性的东西。事实上,如果能够提升自己对于细节的专注程度,在part 2的考试中能够令人眼前一亮。 我们以"描述你在特殊场合穿着的衣服"这个话题为例。如果仅仅描述一件衣服,那么可说的内容很少。但是如果我们更加专注于如何描述这件衣服的背景故事和增添一些比较地道的描述,那么实际的效果是大不相同的。仅以下文为例,供广大考生参考。
Describe a piece of
clothing you wear on a special occasion
Key points: Graduation,
school, pink dress, accessory,
Actually, in my high
school, students are required to wear the school uniforms each day at school.
Everyone looks the same to a great extent.【程度的描述】 No
one's special. So after a while, we all have the similar physical features.
Baggy pants, oversized jackets, and big glasses on our faces, 【生动的描述】of course【自然的语序】. Lucky enough【选取比较自然的连接词】, we had a graduation ceremony, and the high school allowed us to
wear something casual 【转换词性】on that very day.
For this special day, I
picked up a really nice dress. My mum and I found it at an elegant shopping
mall, which was stunning in the store window.【还是细节描写,而且增添了背景故事】 I had my eyes on that dress immediately. It was a pink dress with a
black leather belt, which was neither too fancy nor too formal.【加入形容的部分】 It boasts an graceful cutting style with a U-neck shape. Somehow,
it reminded me of a typical Chanel dress.【加入了西方文化背景知识】 My mum said it might be too mature for my age, but I believe it was OK.【自然地加入自己的态度和看法】 Now think about it, I guess I was eager to be an adult at the time,
so wearing a dress that pretty could significantly improve my confidence as a
18-yr-old young lady. Besides, the color was perfect for my skin tone.
Actually, a look is never
finished without the right accessories.【除了衣服以外增加一些小细节,有助于丰富所描述的整体内容】 I chose to wear the pearl necklace and a really nice pair of beige 【稍微"高级"一点点的词汇就可以】leather shoes. Not surprisingly, I got more than my fair share of
compliments 【地道的描述方式】at the graduation ceremony on that
day.
在part 2当中非常不建议学生背诵范文。我们可以做的是平时多多积累好的表达方式和各种地道的词汇及用法,然后尽可能在口语练习中进行不断地练习和提高。通过持续的练习,每个学生在自己的基础上有不同程度的提高
