IBT口语-23分并不难 Question 1-4各主题都在了 主要介绍如何准备第一题,虽然是第一题,但确不是最简单的。理由: (a)回答第一题比较紧张,因为刚进入口语,还没有进入状态,所以很容易因为紧张,就 闷了。 (b)第一题的问题几乎没有什么提示,这里所谓的提示,指答案的提示。不像第2题,A or B是有提示的,回答A,B,甚至A+B都可以。所以第一题还可能卡在理由上,例 子上。 下面主要介绍第一题考试的范围,偶当时准备就是按照这个范围准备的,参考了不少口语书, 几乎逃不出偶下面列的范围: 我相信大家已经研究过OG 里面其实对每一题的出题范围都有介绍: 第一题的出题范围分为四个方面: (1) 地点类(place) ex: Describe your favorite place in the city and explain why you like this place.
