话题分析
今天小编请到深圳环球教育教研总监、口语教研负责人李伟老师来帮我们做一个分析:
题目审题: 本题是今年9-12月份的口语题库的经历类的一个题目,难度五颗星。主要难点是考生等待某件事情发生的经历相对不多,短时间内无话可说。其次可能会把特殊的事情想象的过于特殊,而找不到合适的事情满足题目要求。
时态要求:由于是过去经历,需要考生熟练切换三种时态:现在,过去和完成时态。这跟故事本身没有关系,纯粹是一个语法基本功,对于不太会使用过去时态的绝大部分5分段考生而已是非常困难的,需要大量的练习,一旦能熟练使用时态来表达不同时间线上的事情,语言能力会有很大提升。
复杂句要求:目标分6分以上的学员,需要使用简单句和负责句的组合,根据教学经验,华南地区的6分学员的特征是:从句的占比大致为30%左右,10个句子有3个左右的从句即可。考试现场学员要展示定语从句,状语从句和一定的名词性从句。不需要很多。经过研究英语母语人士,大学文化水平,在正式场合的沟通,采访,访谈,演讲等录音和视频,发现他们通常从句占比为50%,所有这30%的占比要求一点都不高。
词汇要求:目标分不要求6.5分以上的学员,其实P2不需要很多很难的词汇,日常词汇,准确的词汇组合和固定搭配就够了。比如:nervousness , scared, infected. 目标分6.5分以上的学员,就需要一些不常用的词汇和俚语,例如:COVID-19 Pandemic, contagious, asymptomatic carries, PRC test, quarantine等等
流畅度要求:目标分6分的学员,P2输出语速不低于100-120词/分
连贯性要求:目标分6分的学员,P2要使用大量的连接词和语篇标记词,例如:however, so, but, truth be told, or truth to be told, anyways, don’t get me wrong, i mean, what i am trying to say is, 等等
发音要求: 目标分6分的学员,需要绝大部分单个单词发音准确,重音能服务于表达,不要求很好的语音语调,能顺利完成沟通就可以了。

答案示例
以下是一个参考答案,按照经历类的起因,进过和结果分了段,此答案词汇和语法7分起,流畅度连贯性和发音因人而异。仅供参考。
开头句:After thinking for a little bit just now, what I’ve decided to talk about is the time I waited for the result of my nucleic acid test.
起因和感受:If I remember clearly, it was the end of July. I was planning to take a trip with my family during the summer vacation. However, a confirmed case of COVID-19 was suddenly found in a neighboring community, which really scared us to death. It’s reported that the man was infected when he was traveling in Hunan province. Soon we got a phone call from a staff member in a local community that afternoon, urging us to take a nucleic acid test in the nearby hospital as soon as possible.
经过和感受:My family and I did it immediately. But it usually takes 24 hours to get the result. Truth be told, the whole waiting process was sheer torture for us, especially after we got to know the variant this time was more contagious. I really had ants in my pants. I can’t help pacing up and down and checking my mobile phone from time to time. when I was lying in bed,I even started to imagine what my life would be like if my result was positive. What I had planned for my future would totally be changed. What’s worse, I would probably lose my life. The fear and nervousness made me totally sleepless that night.
结果和感受:Then, I got up very early the next morning. Fortunately, the result was negative, which made me quite relieved. Right at that moment, I finally realized what we should really value in our lives.

01
Who behaves better when waiting, children or adults?
I think the answer is obvious. Compared with kids, adults have more patience when it comesto waiting since they are more mature and have more self-control as well as cognitive level. They know that some things are worthy of waiting for. So, no matter how long it takes to get the result, they would still be civilized. While kids just want everything with the click of a button and lack patience. When their requests are rejected, they may immediately lose temper. Actually I’ve seen many of the situations when kids scream and yell during the waiting process.
02
On what occasions do people usually need towait? I’d say waiting is inevitable in our everyday life, and we have to wait in many of the situations. It could be when we need to travel by public transport, like subways or airplanes, we might have to wait in a long queue, especially during rushhour. When we do online shopping, it usually takes us a few days to get theparcel. In general, waiting is a big part of our daily lives. If the situation or the task requires two or more people to complete it, then the waiting factor kicks inautomatically.
03
Compared to the past, are people less patient now?Why? To some extent, yes. I think people nowadays are less patient because technology has made our lives way more convenient than before. For instance, in Beijing, people can order takeoutonline and then the food is usually delivered to our homes in less than 30 minutes, so peopleexpect that everything can be done much faster. In addition, we’re now living in a fast-paced world with very heavy pressure. People care more about efficiency and productivity. Therefore, in thisday and age, less people are willing to slow down and systematically study an area, instead, we tend to watch video clips or browse information on socialmedia.
04
What are the positive and negative effects of waiting insociety? Well, on the credit side, waiting could develop patience in people. When people are willing to wait for others, they show respect and care for each other. In this case, the whole societywill become more tolerant, especially with elderly or disabled people. However, on the otherhand, waiting is time-consuming which would reduce efficiency of work and social production. Therefore, it might influence the pace of economic development. Apart from that, waiting may lead to a disastrous effect sometimes. Like, if we have to wait long for an ambulance, the consequences can be fatal.
