一、獨(dú)立口語(yǔ)1

　　上周六的獨(dú)立口語(yǔ)一依然延續(xù)自14年下半年以來(lái)活動(dòng)類話題最熱的勢(shì)頭，考的是一道活動(dòng)類/人物類的話題，大致意思是三選一，選出你認(rèn)為對(duì)工作環(huán)境而言最重要的是什么。而從目前ETS的選題趨勢(shì)來(lái)看，活動(dòng)類話題再次出現(xiàn)的可能非常的大。

　　活動(dòng)類話題是獨(dú)立口語(yǔ)一常見(jiàn)的話題之一，一般多涉及人的興趣愛(ài)好，例如最感興趣的事情，未來(lái)的打算，什么樣的工作/課程你認(rèn)為是不錯(cuò)的等等。

　　常見(jiàn)的活動(dòng)類話題有這些：

　　1、描述一個(gè)你和你的家人最enjoy的的活動(dòng);

　　2、描述一個(gè)對(duì)你而言最重要的日子;

　　3、童年你和你的家人最感興趣的活動(dòng)。

　　此類話題的答題思路基本上是這樣的：先說(shuō)自己最感興趣的是什么(或者自己認(rèn)為什樣是最好的)，然后再詳細(xì)說(shuō)明原因。

　　因此，對(duì)于這類題目，大致可以拿以下的模板來(lái)對(duì)比套用。

　　I once participated in an activity to grow plants on campus/ in our local community, which was organized by the Student Union/ Residents' Committee.

　　There are many students to join this activity, we divided into several groups and held a competition to see whose trees or flowers have the beautiful results. In my group, we had two people in total and each of us has the specific job. One was responsible for buying tool or the relevant stuff, and planting tree and flowers, the other was charge of recording every stage of plant’s growth, spreading the information by updating our own micro blog.

　　There are many benefits for joining the activity.

　　Firstly, we witness the plant’s growth that enable us to learn some knowledge about the botany, and get to know the natural feature of certain plant.

　　Secondly, it is a good way to beatify the surrounding environment and improve the air quality.

　　在這里，馬叔為大家專門準(zhǔn)備了幾道較為經(jīng)典的活動(dòng)類試題，如果感興趣，不妨在小馬機(jī)經(jīng)APP上進(jìn)行練習(xí)。

　　1、Talk about a study habit of yours that’s different from others. Explain your answer in details.

　　2、A high school plans to add an after-school activity for students. What kind of activity would you recommend? Using details and explain why.

　　3、Describe a new activity that you want to do in the future.

　　4、Some people prefer to watch a sport game from the audience seat, others prefer to be in the sport field andcompete with others. Which do you prefer to do?

　　5、Talk about advantages and disadvantages of children playing compute games.Give your opinion and explain with details

　　二、獨(dú)立口語(yǔ)2

　　上周六獨(dú)立口語(yǔ)二考的依然是事件類的話題，具體是說(shuō)選課要選哪一個(gè)課程來(lái)上，有趣的但是不容易得分的課還是無(wú)趣的易得分的課。這樣的話題之前已經(jīng)考了很多次，根據(jù)目前的情況來(lái)看，接下來(lái)考事件類話題的可能興非常的大。

　　事件類的話題是獨(dú)立口語(yǔ)二常見(jiàn)的話題，一般涉及最近發(fā)生的事件，以及曾經(jīng)發(fā)生或者將要發(fā)生的具體的某件事，例如此前你曾經(jīng)歷的一件事情，或者你即將要做的事情等等。

　　此類話題的解題思路稍微多一些，但無(wú)非是說(shuō)出具體的事件內(nèi)容或者在事件發(fā)生時(shí)你的選擇，然后說(shuō)出你的原因。具體的解題模板有以下這些：

　　1、Festival

　　Chinese Spring Festival is a traditional festival and, moreover, a crucial time for a family to get together to have a big meal and catch up. During spring festival, the whole family will dress up themselves and decorate the house with red lanterns and plants, especially kumquat, which is a symbol of fortune. One of the most primary activities of spring festival is setting off firecrackers and watching fire work display in the open air. In addition, visiting relatives and exchange best wishes is also another indispensable tradition in this festival for reunion of the family.

　　2、A wedding ceremony

　　A traditional Chinese wedding ceremony. On the ceremony, the bride dressed up herself wearing Qipao, the traditional folk costume. After the groom and the best man picking up the bride from her parent`s home to their new apartment, the whole family and their friends get together to enjoy a grand banquet. In addition, they set off firecrackers and watch fire work display in the open air, which is an indispensable activity of a traditional Chinese wedding ceremony.

　　3、Experience

　　Challenging successful disappointing

　　…….i would like to talk about my college entrance exam. The preparation for this exam is as long and as arduous work for me. In those torturous days, it is common for me to stay up late to finish tons of paper so that I barely had enough time to sleep. When I entered the examination room, my heart was pounding fiercely that I almost throw up. Fortunately, I succeeded in the exam, and got an offer from my desired college, which paid back all my efforts and suffering. It was really a challenging experience of my life. ( in spite of all the torments, it was really a successful experience of my life.)(unfortunately, I failed the exam and miss the offer of my desired college, this disappointing experience frustrated me badly.)

　　4、Learning new things.

　　Today I would like to talk about the process of learning playing guitar. The process of learning playing guitar is as long and as arduous work for me. Before that, I know nothing about instrument and I even can`t read the music score. In order to conquer these difficulties, I spent all my afterschool time in practicing and signed up for a training class. At those days, I often stayed up late to play and listen to the tapes from prominent players. Eventually, my great effort was paid off and I possess the skill of playing guitar.

　　在這里，為大家精心準(zhǔn)備幾道較為經(jīng)典的事件類話題，有興趣的同學(xué)不妨練習(xí)一下：

　　1、When facing difficult situations, some people prefer to get advice from elder like parents and teachers. Others prefer to get advice from friends of the same age. Which do you prefer and why? Give Specific details and examples to explain your answer.

　　2、Do you agree or disagree with the following statement: Playing computer games is a waste of time.

　　3、What kind of job will you choose? To choose a job through which you can get a lot of money or to choose a job through which you can get great personal satisfaction? Use specific reasons and examples to support your answer.

　　4、Do you think Government should spend money on encouraging citizens to lead a healthy lifestyle.

　　5、Do you agree of disagree? Children can learn better from teachers who are kind and friendly.

　　三、獨(dú)立寫作

　　上周六的獨(dú)立寫作考的是一道比較類的話題，內(nèi)容大致意思為現(xiàn)在人們花費(fèi)大量的錢在自己的寵物身上，即使他們有其他選擇。而比較類的試題已經(jīng)連續(xù)考了四場(chǎng)，自14年下半年至今，獨(dú)立寫作也幾乎有將近一半的場(chǎng)次考的是比較類的話題。因此，未來(lái)幾場(chǎng)考試，比較類考試的可能性還是非常大的。

　　比較類的試題通常是兩件事情拿來(lái)對(duì)比，然后問(wèn)哪件事情更好。一般的形式有這樣比那樣要好、這樣后者那樣、與其這樣不如那樣等等。

　　而比較類的答題思路也很簡(jiǎn)單，首先說(shuō)你的選擇，你認(rèn)為什么是對(duì)的或者說(shuō)你認(rèn)為什么更好，然后說(shuō)出自己的理由來(lái)。

　　因此，按照下方的解題思路來(lái)走，比較類試題就很容易拿分：

　　例如：

　　Working at home by using computers or telephones is better than working in the office.

　　就拿這個(gè)題目來(lái)說(shuō)，題目的觀點(diǎn)是在家使用電腦或者電話工作比在辦公室工作要好。那么有的考生拿到題目之后就會(huì)開(kāi)始思考，首先同意題目的觀點(diǎn)，然后列舉第一個(gè)理由，在家工作節(jié)省了在路上的時(shí)間，讓員工更高效;

　　第二個(gè)理由是可以降低交通壓力，保護(hù)環(huán)境;

　　第三個(gè)理由是可以降低公司成本，可以省電省租金等等。

　　當(dāng)然，我們這樣寫的時(shí)候，如果可以在三十分鐘之內(nèi)快速地想到這幾個(gè)點(diǎn)并且很好地展開(kāi)的話，這樣是完全沒(méi)有問(wèn)題的。

　　但如果在考場(chǎng)上這三個(gè)點(diǎn)不能很快地想到，展開(kāi)也遇到了問(wèn)題，我們應(yīng)該怎么辦?我們不妨換一種思路想一想，其實(shí)比較類題目的觀點(diǎn)都是太絕對(duì)的，A一定比B好，在任何情況下都是這樣，我們其實(shí)很容易想到事實(shí)肯定不是這樣，那我們可以想想在什么情況下是成立的，什么情況下是不成立的。

　　就拿這道題來(lái)說(shuō)，對(duì)于一個(gè)要求個(gè)人獨(dú)立完成的工作來(lái)說(shuō)，可能在家更好，因?yàn)槲覀円陨咸岬降囊幌聝?yōu)點(diǎn);但對(duì)于一些要求總是與人打交道的工作來(lái)說(shuō)，比如銷售，那就不能一直待在家里辦公了，在辦公室才能更高效。這樣不僅從邏輯上來(lái)說(shuō)更說(shuō)得通，字?jǐn)?shù)的壓力也減小了。

　　舉個(gè)例子~

　　題目：自學(xué)好還是跟著老師學(xué)好?

　　Some people think that they can learn better by themselves than with a teacher. Others think that it is always better to have a teacher. Which do you prefer? Use specific reasons to develop your essay.

　　分析：寫作思路：

　　應(yīng)當(dāng)和老師一起學(xué)習(xí)(其中一種思路)

　　(1)教師受過(guò)培訓(xùn)，他們了解學(xué)生的問(wèn)題，所以在進(jìn)行輔導(dǎo)的時(shí)候系統(tǒng)有重點(diǎn)

　　(2)教師和學(xué)生進(jìn)行交流，使學(xué)生能夠迅速掌握知識(shí)

　　(3)教師提供了學(xué)習(xí)的方法，這在未來(lái)學(xué)生學(xué)習(xí)其他知識(shí)的時(shí)候都很有幫助

　　范文：

　　Most of us can learn how to do something simple on our own with just a set of instructions. However, to learn about something more complex, it's always best to have a teacher.

　　Teachers bring with them varied and useful backgrounds. They've been trained to teach individuals in different ways depending on their style. For instance, omen students learn better by discussing a topic. Others learn more by writing about it. Teachers can help students learn in the way that's best of each student. A textbook or a manual can only give you one way of learning something. Plus they're only as helpful as your ability to understand them. A good teacher can adapt her teaching to your needs.

　　Teachers help you focus on what you're learning. If you're learning something by yourself, it’s easy to become distracted, and go on to other activities. Teachers keep your attention on the subject. They also approach a subject logically, taking it one step at a time. On your own, it's tempting to skip parts of the learning process you think you don’t need. That can binder your ability to really understand the subject.

　　Learning a subject on your own is a very narrow way of learning. You can only use the information you get from the textbook. With a teacher, you get the information in the written materials as well as the teacher's own knowledge of the topic. Teachers can also provide extra materials to broaden the scope of what you're learning.

　　There's nothing wrong with studying on your own, and a learner can always benefit from some quiet study. For the best possible learning, though, a good teacher is the biggest help you can have.
