对比!口语高分答案 VS 低分答案

In the examples below, 3 differences between the low and high level answers are:

1. The high level answers are a more natural style.

(其实这点说的，就是用一种更口语化，更Native的表达)

2. The high level answers use more linking phrases.

(虽说口语没有答偏题这一说，但是语句中的逻辑性还是需要的。太过混乱的逻辑会让考官听不明白你到底在说什么)

3. The high level answers are more detailed when describing or explaining something, (using reasons / examples / comparisons).

(高分的答案更具体，更详细，不抽象。小伙伴们完全可以用举例或者对比这种简单的手法，来给自己的口语表达添色。)

Examples:

Do you like your university?

Lower Level: Yes. My teachers are very good and I have lots of friends there.

(简评：用词和语句都太过简单，回答不够有力。完全是较低分答案的”标答”)

Higher level: Yes I do. I think my university's great, because I mean, firstly, the teachers there are all really good, you know, I've learnt a huge amount from them. And another thing I really like about my university is the friends I've made there.

(简评：类似于I mean, you know 这类的词组，并不难学。但是烤鸭们要切记，一定不能用过量。简简单单的去剖析细节，分数就比笼统的一句话来的漂亮。)

How often do you watch TV?

Lower Level: Not often, because I prefer using the Internet.

(简评：这个答案有进步，也有不足。好的是，后面加来一句I prefer，并没有单单说一个Not often。不足的是，对于Part 1而言，这类问题的回答仍是太过简短。建议3-4句话为佳。)

Higher level:Not that often actually. I mean, I probably only watch it about two or three times a week, basically because I prefer watching stuff on the Internet.

Do you prefer eating at home or eating in a restaurant?

Lower Level:I prefer eating at home because it's healthier than eating out.

(简评：又一进步—给出了原因。但是小雅哥想说，再往深入挖一点，再加一点口语化的词汇，例如Simply Because这类词组，给考官一个能给你更高分的 “台阶”. ？)

Higher level: I'd say I generally prefer eating at home, simply because the food I eat at home is a lot healthier than the food you get in most restaurants.

When was the last time you received a gift?

Lower Level: About five weeks ago.

(简评：不用小雅哥说，相信大家也意识到这个回答太过简短了吧？口语亦是一个communication的过程，就算是考试，也千万不要用这种answer来回答考官)

Higher level: Let me have a little think, um…… I suppose it must have been about five or six weeks ago, and it was some chocolate that a friend of mine gave me when he came over to my home for dinner (coz my friends all know that I'm a bit of a chocoholic!)

Would you like to move to another city in the future?

Lower Level:No, because I love my hometown.

(简评：如此的答案，未免令人有一种 “冷艳” “无法深入交流”的错觉。展示不了你的口语能力，如何让考官心服口服给你个高分？)

Higher level: No I wouldn't, the main reason beingthat I love my hometown, so if I moved somewhere else, I'm sure I wouldn't be as happy as I am living here.

Can you describe your home a little?

Lower Level:My home is big, for example we have a big living room. And um……We also have a good view because our flat is very high.

(简评: 其实这个答案并不会得很低分。一般想要6分的同学完全可以这样说。对于想要7分甚至于是更高的烤鸭们而言，explain more会更棒！)

Higher level: Yeah, sure. Well first of all, it's pretty big. For example, the living room is about three or four times the size of this room. And, um…what else… oh yeah, and another thing to mention is the view, because we live quite high up, on the twentieth floor, so we've got a really nice view of the city centre.
