在描述大學(xué)或者中學(xué)的過程中,考生的內(nèi)容要涉及以下幾個(gè)方面:

☆ 大學(xué)的名字和位置以及大學(xué)的知名度;

☆ 大學(xué)里的學(xué)生人數(shù);

☆ 大學(xué)里的老師以及教授的好壞;

☆ 大學(xué)中的教材以及是否喜歡;

☆ 大學(xué)中的一些設(shè)施和教學(xué)專業(yè)樓。

如果考生的回答能夠涉及以上內(nèi)容,那么考試的時(shí)候該考生就不會(huì)出現(xiàn)無話可說或者語無倫次的情況。因此,雅思口語考生的分?jǐn)?shù)高低是取決于回答的內(nèi)容而不僅僅是英語的好壞。

以下是一些相關(guān)問題的Sample Answer。

1. Are you a student or do you work?

Sample Answer: I am a student. At the moment I am studying at JiaoTong University.

2. What subjects did you study at high school?

Sample Answer: I studied up to nine subjects at that time, including Chinese, Math, English, and some other nature science subjects like Geography and Biology. Among so many subjects, I like Math best and I did it well. You know, usually boys are more interested in scientific subjects and I am no exception.

3. What major will you choose if you study abroad?

Sample Answer:

A: I haven’t decided yet. I will first go to a language school for a ten-month language study, and after that, try to choose a university and my major. I like architecture, so probably I will study something about architecture design.

B: I am going to study education when I am abroad. My major for undergraduate is education. I have learned it for four years and have got a fairly good understanding. I just want to further my study in this field to know more and research more, which will definitely help me with my future career.

4. Which country do you plan to go to?

Sample Answer:

A: I would like to choose England. You know, England has a good reputation for its integrated education system and its wonderful educational quality. I think the law course is its strength and therefore I choose to study law there.

B: I plan to go to Australia. Australia is a country with very warm weather. This is the main reason that I have chosen this country. In addition, the social welfare of the people there is very good. That is also attractive.

5. What do you look for in a university?

Sample Answer: I think there is a lot for me to consider when I make this choice. First, I’d see the courses the university offers; see if they are good for me, including the program, the faculty etc. Then I look at the accommodation, I plan to live on campus, so living conditions and the food are my big concerns. Finally, I’ll see what the weather is like there. I don’t think I will choose a too cold or too hot place to stay in.

6. What do you think of the training you receive in the university?

Sample Answer: I think most of my courses will be helpful in the future. My university has tried very hard to keep up with the latest developments in our field. There were some compulsory classes that I didn’t like, such as politics and history, but overall I think I was provided with a pretty good education. I don’t think it is possible to learn everything you need to know in our future career, but I’m happy that studying in university has given me a good start.
