　　英語口語考試話題常用展開方式
　　(一) 枚舉法 枚舉法也叫列舉法，用這種方法擴(kuò)展話題，首先提出論點(diǎn)，然后列舉一系列論據(jù)或原因?qū)χ黝}進(jìn)行論證或闡述。請看下面一段語段： There are two reasons why I have decided to attend our university. First of all, there is the question of money, our university’s tuition fee is reasonable, and I don’t even have to pay it all at once. This is very important, since my father is not a rich man. With the deferred payment plan, my father will be able to pay my tuition without too much difficulty. The second reason is the fine education I will receive in management, my chosen field. For some well-known experienced managers are hired as visiting professors in our university. Moreover, our university requires all students to gain practical experiences by working in a company. 說話人在論述選擇上該大學(xué)的原因時，首先提出論點(diǎn)：“我選擇上該大學(xué)出自兩個理由”，接著列舉了學(xué)費(fèi)和教育兩個方面，來對該論點(diǎn)進(jìn)行論證。兩個論據(jù)通過連接短語first of all和the second reason貫通在一起。在論證第二方面的原因時，又從兩方面進(jìn)行闡述，即：該大學(xué)管理系聘請了最好的有經(jīng)驗(yàn)的管理專家擔(dān)任訪問教授并為學(xué)生求學(xué)期間提供實(shí)習(xí)機(jī)會。Moreover是連接詞，將這兩層意思連接起來。 表示枚舉的常見過渡性連接詞語有：first, second, third; in the first place, in the second place; first of all, first and foremost; to begin with, to start with; for one thing, for another; also, besides, furthermore, moreover, in addition, what is more; above all; next; beyond that; initially; eventually, finally, last but not least等。用枚舉法來擴(kuò)展話題，可以幫助考生迅速理清思路，同時使論述的內(nèi)容層次分明，脈絡(luò)清楚。
　　(二) 描述法 描述法是話題擴(kuò)展的一種常用手段，語段描述一般都是描述人、地方或物品的某個特點(diǎn)，并且語段的主題句往往表達(dá)說話人的總體印象。請看下面一段人物描寫： The most fascinating person I know is Xiaoming, a friend of mine. Xiaoming has many unusual characteristics you would not guess from his physical appearance. He is probably the shortest and thinnest man that I know. Nevertheless, he is the best athlete in our school. Moreover, he is also a wonderful storyteller. He often entertains us for hours with stories about the interesting things he does and the people he knows. The most important thing is that he is a person who will not hesitate to help you when you are in trouble. You will feel how wonderful it is to be one of his friends. I am sure that you would find him a fascinating person too. 該語段是典型的人物描述，所有的句子緊緊圍繞主題句—Xiaoming is the most fascinating person I know—來展開。Xiaoming給人的總體印象是迷人的，說話人通過從外貌、特長、品質(zhì)等方面對他進(jìn)行描述，突出強(qiáng)調(diào)他與眾不同的典型特征，給人留下深刻的印象。應(yīng)該注意到形容詞在精彩生動的描述中所起的作用，如：the most fascinating, unusual, the shortest and thinnest, best, wonderful等。
　　(三) 舉例法 舉例法亦稱例證法，它與枚舉法有很多相似之處，唯一不同的是，用例證法展開話題時，主題句中提出論點(diǎn)，然后通過實(shí)際事例予以論證或闡述，而不是僅羅列一些原因或利弊。值得注意的是，要求所選的事例能很好地支持主題句中的論點(diǎn)。請看下面的語段： There is no denying that life is full of undesirable risks. To illustrate, a driver throws himself into danger when driving too fast, and a heavy smoker is running the risk of suffering from lung cancer. However, there are many risks worth taking, since they will bring you success, fame or pleasure. For example, Ke Shouliang once challenged the physical limitation of a man and risked his life in flying over the Yellow River in his car. And he made it and was hailed as hero. 說話人以生活中的冒險為主題，認(rèn)為有的風(fēng)險應(yīng)該避開而有的風(fēng)險卻值得嘗試。每層意思均以舉例的方式展開闡述。首先以駕車超速招致禍患和吸煙導(dǎo)致肺癌為例來說明類似的風(fēng)險應(yīng)該予以回避;接著以柯受良駕車飛躍黃河為例來闡述值得冒的風(fēng)險及其原因。 表示舉例的常見過渡性連接詞語有：for example, for instance, as an example, as an illustration, such as, such, a case in point is, to illustrate, in particular, specifically, say, next, namely, that is, like, take …as an example等。舉例法是通過具體的實(shí)例來闡述論點(diǎn)，使該法來支持或反對某一觀點(diǎn)。
　　(四) 比較對照法 比較對照法是闡述話題主旨的常用方法之一。比較對照法由比較和對照兩部分組成，但兩者往往一起使用，以闡述兩者或更多事物間的異同。比較描述的是所比對象的相同和相似點(diǎn)，而對照則強(qiáng)調(diào)所描述對象的不同點(diǎn)，甚至相反之處。 比較對照的結(jié)構(gòu)有多種，可以先集中描述甲A、甲B、甲C……;乙A、乙B、乙C……;也可以是甲乙方同時逐點(diǎn)描述：甲A、乙A;甲B、乙B……例如： My two friends have similar and different characteristics, such as appearance, personality and hobbies. Wendy is short and blonde. In contrast, Lisa is taller than Wendy, and Lisa’s hair is much darker and curlier than Wendy’s. Wendy is the shy type and doesn’t talk loudly when other people are there. On the other hand, Lisa is more outgoing than Wendy and likes to speak more. Both Lisa and Wendy enjoy doing different things, and they do them well. For instance, Wendy is a folk dancer, and she dances more gracefully than Lisa, but Lisa can play tennis better than Wendy. Wendy and Lisa are friends; for this reason, other people like to compare them. 說話人比較了兩個朋友在外貌、性格和愛好方面的相同點(diǎn)及不同點(diǎn)，以“甲A、乙A;甲B、乙B……”的比較方式展開，分條討論這兩位朋友的異同。又 如： There are some similarities between the city and the countryside; however, great differences between them still exist. In our country, most people like to live in the city, because of entertainment and better health service as well. Children can get better education. But it is noisy and crowded in the city. Life in the countryside, on the other hand, is much simple and comparatively dull. Transportation is not convenient, and the chances of education are limited. But there is much less noise there, and the air is cleaner. 說話人從交通、娛樂、教育、環(huán)境等四個方面論述了城鄉(xiāng)生活的差異，采用的是“甲A、甲B、甲C……;乙A;乙B、乙C……”先城市后農(nóng)村的集中對照手法。 常用的表示比較的過渡性連接詞語有：similarly, likewise, correspondingly, in a similar way, in the same way, too, like, resemble, similar to, equal to, equally important, both…and…, the same as等。常用的表示對照的過渡性連接詞語有：on the one hand, on the other hand, on the contrary, in contrast, by contrast, in contrast to, in sharp contrast, conversely, otherwise, however, nevertheless, but, yet, although, even though, whereas, while, it is true…but…, instead, unlike, rather than, in spite of, contrast with, different from, contrary to, differ from, though等。
　　(五) 因果法 因果法經(jīng)常用以闡述原因，回答為什么這類問題，分析事物發(fā)展的前因后果。因果關(guān)系的普遍性決定了因果關(guān)系的復(fù)雜性，通常因果模式有一因一果，一因多果、一果多因和因果鏈等，而以因果方式擴(kuò)展話題時通常采用先因后果或先果后因的一因多果或一果多因模式，其中的多因或多果又常以枚舉方式列舉。例如： There is a great demand for colleges to conduct reforms on English teaching and learning. Is there a particular reason for college English reforms? Educational surveys uncover many contributing causes. Some students see little relationship between class work and future employment requirements. In addition, their oral English is quite poor even learning English for so many years. The daily school routine presents an unchanging and often boring schedule. In addition to these factors, the students’ own problems and needs may lead students to lose interests in learning English. 說話人分析了進(jìn)行大學(xué)英語教學(xué)改革的原因。原因是多方面的，有課堂教學(xué)與未來工作要求脫節(jié)的原因，有教學(xué)效果不如意的原因，有課程單調(diào)乏味的原因，還有學(xué)生自身的問題和需求使其失去學(xué)習(xí)興趣等方面的原因?？梢?，這是一種一果多因的關(guān)系。過渡性連接詞語in addition, in addition to以及reason, cause, lead to等詞語將多種原因串聯(lián)起來，取得很好的連貫效果。 常用的表示因果關(guān)系的過渡性連接詞語有：(因)because, as, since, for, owing to, because of, due to, on account of, as a result of, for the first reason, result from; (果)thus, so, hence, therefore, accordingly, consequently, for this reason, on that account, as a result, as a consequence, it follows that …, result in, contribute to等。
