由于受時(shí)間所限,考生在表達(dá)自己的觀點(diǎn)時(shí)往往很難恰當(dāng)?shù)匕盐蘸冒l(fā)言的長(zhǎng)度。有時(shí)因時(shí)間把握不當(dāng),考生往往沒等表達(dá)完自己的觀點(diǎn)就被打斷了,在某種程度上會(huì)影響考生的情緒。
如果采用先總括,后展開的陳述方法來(lái)表達(dá)自己的觀點(diǎn),將有助于保證觀點(diǎn)表達(dá)的完整性。如下例:
Trees are useful to man. They give him shade. They provide him with wood and other products. They help us to prevent drought and flood. If trees are cut down recklessly, we shall be threatened by the terrible change of atmosphere… Therefore human beings depend so much on trees.
從此例可以看出,考生無(wú)論在何處被中斷發(fā)言,其內(nèi)容都能保持相對(duì)的完整性。
在陳述一個(gè)觀點(diǎn)時(shí)常常需要列舉論據(jù)來(lái)支持你的觀點(diǎn),以使你的表達(dá)層次清楚、邏輯分明。口頭陳述觀點(diǎn)就像寫作文一樣,通常也是分三個(gè)層次進(jìn)行的:開頭、中間展開和結(jié)尾。 開頭的常用語(yǔ)句如下:
1.To begin with, we may say that…
2.The first thing I want to say is…
常用在中間的承接用語(yǔ)如下:
1.Next I want to point out that…
2.The next point I want to say is…
3.For one thing…For another…
4.On the one hand…On the other hand…
常用的結(jié)束用語(yǔ)如下:
1.The final thing I want to say is…
2.Last but not least, we…
3.My conclusion is …
