雅思口语抽象话题怎样能说得具体一文告诉了我们雅思口语中的2大难点话题之一——抽象类话题的化抽象为具象的具体方法思路。下面小编就和大家分享雅思口语抽象话题怎样能说得具体，来欣赏一下吧。
雅思口语抽象话题怎样能说得具体?
雅思口语话题中有很多是显得很抽象，考生在看到这些话题的时候，很大部分人都不知道该如何做才能把抽象化为具体。下面就为大家整理了相关资料让大家把抽象的雅思口语话题化为具体。
下面举一个在雅思口语考试中出现的话题：How popular are brand names where you live?
即“名牌在你住的地方有多受欢迎?”。很多考生这个时候就会很简单的回答“Very popular”或者“Not very popular”，然后绞尽脑汁万般无奈中又加上一句“I (don’t) like brand names”。
这样的雅思口语话题无疑就是非常抽象的。如果考生的回答过于简单的，考官一般也就会认为考生的英语水平非常基本。要知道，一旦和basic搭上边，考分就在5分封顶了。
所谓“化抽象为具体”就是要举例说明。如果你说很多年轻人宁愿餐餐吃泡面，也要买名牌手袋，那么考官自然就能感受到名牌对人们来说是多么重要。反过来，如果你说很多人腰缠万贯，却能在超市里随便买件t-shirt穿着，那么你就很明白的告诉了别人名牌产品在社会中影响力并不是那么大的。
再举个常见的雅思口语话题的例子，描述自己的家乡，要描写一个旅行中去过的地方。如果不能化抽象为具体，我们就只能说某某地方很美，说beautiful, fabulous, gorgeous 这些，即使加上诸如wonderful, amazing, fantastic这样的表示惊叹的词语，然后还是没什么说的。
如果描写上海是个摩登大都市，我们可以举外滩这个例子，说说那里有古老的欧洲建筑，有零零总总的各大银行，还有各式的高级商铺。虽然只是描绘了上海的某一个地方，但是对于听众来说，已经为他描述了一幅栩栩如生的画面。这样的描述就比较到位了，同时也避免了无话可说的尴尬局面。
这两种化抽象为具体的雅思口语话题的例子告诉我们，其实，这样的转换也就是考生的思路和表达方式的转化，之后大家不仅有话可以说了，而且知道可以怎么说，也就可以顺利完成雅思口语考试了。
举例
Describe a success in your life是雅思口语话题卡事件类的一道常青树考题。作为一个抽象类的题目，很多雅思考生反映比较难以描述。其实只要遵循一个原则，即“抽象问题具象化，复杂问题简单化”就可以顺利的把成功这张话题卡片描述得生动。
对于第二种成功，我们可以理解为自己设定的目标的实现。正所谓，一千人眼中有一千个不同的哈姆雷特。每个人对成功的定义都不一样，每个人都有自己的成功。可以描述的有：
成功的掌握了一项技能：做饭/开车/游泳(=a skill you want to learn)
成功的做了一个东西：礼物/手工艺品/车模/航模 (= a handicraft)
成功戒烟/戒酒/戒游戏/减肥/克服羞涩(= change in life/something difficult you did well)
成功指导或帮助别人戒烟/戒酒/戒游戏/减肥/克服羞涩(=someone you helped)
成功地维权(=something you bought but you were not happy with，讲买的东西有质量问题，不满意，要求索赔，终成功)
成功地脱险(=an unforgettable event)
成功地与病魔抗争(=a change in life, a happy moment, a piece of good news)
以下是一篇雅思口语范文，以减肥为例：
Describe a success in your life.
You should say:
What was it
When did you get this success
How to get it
And explain with whom/what did you do in this success
分析：该题要求描述过去的一次成功经历，以上所述话题准备的内容均适用，注意时态的正确选用，讲清楚成功的来龙去脉即可。
I never exercised, and most days I just stayed at home watching TV. I didn't realize I'd gained weight until I tried to zip up my favorite pair of jeans. When I couldn't get the zipper to go all the way up, I panicked and decided I had to take action at once. So I made a weight loss plan which was actually quite simple, eat less and exercise more.
我从不锻炼，大部分时间我只是呆在家里看电视。直到我试着拉上我最喜欢的牛仔裤的拉链，我才意识到我的体重增加了。当我拉不上拉链时，我惊慌失措，决定立刻采取行动。所以我制定了一个减肥计划，其实很简单，少吃多运动。
Well, what has been the big success that makes me proud of in my life? It definitely goes to my weight loss story. This past summer vacation, I gained 10 kilograms because all I did
那么，在我的一生中，有什么大的成功让我感到骄傲呢?这肯定和我的减肥故事有关。去年暑假，因为我所做的一切，我增加了10公斤
First of all, I quit snacking at night, which was what caused me to gain weight in the first place. I cut out all empty calories from my diet (fast food, sweets, soda, etc.) and really focused on only eating clean nutrient dense foods. Second, I made it a rule to go swimming every morning. As hard as it was in the beginnings I didn't give up when things got tough.
首先，我晚上不再吃零食，这是我体重增加的首要原因。我从我的饮食中剔除了所有的空热量(快餐、糖果、汽水等)，只专注于吃干净营养丰富的食物。其次，我养成了每天早上去游泳的习惯。尽管一开始很艰难，但当事情变得艰难时，我没有放弃。
I persevered because I know there are no shortcuts to losing weight. In two months, I managed to lose eight kilos. The changes were incredible, which was amazing, really! What's more, I am healthier than ever before. I feel much more athletic now. I have an overall sense of well being that I never experienced when I was heavier. I have so much more energy and I also sleep better. And the most important thing is, I gained confidence from successfully solving my problem.
我坚持下来，因为我知道减肥没有捷径。在两个月的时间里，我成功地减掉了8公斤。变化是难以置信的，这是惊人的，真的!更重要的是，我比以前更健康。我现在觉得运动能力好多了。我有一种整体上的幸福感，这是我重的时候从来没有过的。我有更多的精力，我也睡得更好。最重要的是，我从成功地解决我的问题中获得了信心。
I feel especially flatted when others can hardly believe I was a much bigger girl. It was really a success.
当别人很难相信我是一个大得多的女孩时，我感到特别沮丧。这真的是一次成功。
提高雅思口语成绩一定要找外国人对话?
这次我们来解决一位雅思考生的求助：特意找了外国人练口语，雅思口语成绩却连0.5分都没有提高。我还要继续坚持下去吗?提高口语能力真的必须跟外国人对话吗?
提高英语口语能力一定要和外国人对话?事实可能恰恰相反。
外国人的意会能力其实特别强，即使你的话语错漏百出，在一定的语境下，外国人还是能明白你的意思，并且能够给予一定的回应。
当然，除非你的交流对象是一位一对一口语课老师，否则一般人不会对你的错误提出任何修改意见(因为已经能“意会”你的意思并与你继续交流了)，所以你会犯错的还是会继续犯错。同时，你会因此造成一种膨胀的错觉：我与外国人沟通无障碍。
真正口语水平的提高，不能光依靠与外国人对话——更何况这不是每个中国学习者都可以拥有的环境。提高英语口语水平，需要材料的输入，需要有效的反馈。
1 材料的输入
在缺乏英文语境的情况下，最理想的提高口语的方法是利用各种原汁原味的多媒体素材(书籍、听力音频、电视剧，电影，讲座，新闻等等)去积累和练习。
朗读与背诵
朗读及背诵是最基础、最传统又十分有效的提升语感和流利度的方法。在本人读中学的年代，早读材料就是这些。
当然，所谓“背诵”不是说全篇一字不漏地背下来，背诵是可以有多种玩法的。你可以只背一段你自己喜欢的、比较多生词的、比较容易记的——你自己选择;或者你可以理解了全文的观点以后利用文章的某些语句加上你自己的理解复述下来。
观看影视作品，模仿在特定语境下的一些英文表达方式
朗读与背诵篇章的方法可以让你积累好词好句和提高流利度，而通过英语视频你能够学习更地道的口语表达。关键是你能够学会在某种情境下，英语母语使用者是怎么回应的。在这个过程中，融会贯通的能力很重要。如果你留心的话，你会发觉有一些口语表达在不同影视作品中都有出现过。这些口语表达是很常用、很地道的，你可以把它们积累下来，并且自编自导自演某个场景，像演戏一样把这个对白说出来。
例1：从 2 Broke Girls(破产姐妹)里, 我学到了一个说法：Just because … that doesn't…(不能因为X.X.X就X.X.X呀!)
然后在电影500 Days of Summer(和莎莫的500天)里我又碰见了同样的说法。
于是我的印象会非常深刻，我学到了教科书上、英语课堂上可能学不到的句型。又查阅了一些资料，发现有时“that”也可以省略。经过这番学习后，我可以自己创设一些场景造句把这个句型用起来：
Just because most women choose to get married, (that) doesn't mean I should do the same thing.
Just because you fail this time, (that) doesn't mean you have to quit.
例2：在Desperate Housewives(绝望主妇)里，我见过无数次这个说法：Is it just me or…(只有我一个人觉得X.X.X吗?)
所以，我懂得了原来外国人表达“只有我一个人觉得X.X.X吗?”“你不觉得X.X.X吗?”“到底是我的原因还是真的X.X.X呢”之类的意思时，可以用这个句型。我开始脑补一些场景自己造句：
Is it just me or is she weird today?
Is it just me or is the floor really slippery?
例3：通过观看Emma Watson 在访谈节目Ellen Show上的访问，我能学到：be like可以用于引述说话或想法。
于是，我开始自编自导自演造句：
At that time, everybody was frustrated. Suddenly, he stood up and encouraged us to cheer up. He was like, "Come on, guys! We can make it!"
2 有效的反馈
自我检查
对于有一定基础和能力的学习者，你可以选择录音并自己重听，你应该有能力发现一些基本错误，例如he/she混淆，三单缺s，时态错误等等。
专业反馈
当然，对于大部分学员，如果想得到更精准的反馈和建议，需要请老师帮你听录音并纠正。传统课程、网课、一对一、小班都可以，需要要花费一定的价钱，但你将能得到你自己自学或单纯与外国人瞎(尬)聊所不能获得的反馈，相信这是值得的。
综上所述，通过有效的积累、总结和模仿，加上有效的反馈，我相信就算缺乏英语交流环境也可以练成地道的口语。
雅思口语高频话题：想见的外国名人
Describe a famous person (not in your country) that you would like to meet in person.
You should say:
Who the person is;
What the person does;
How you got to know about him or her;
And explain why you want to meet the person.
这个雅思口语可以关联的话题是：Describe a band or a singer that you like.
这个雅思口语Part2的核心内容：
What the person does
Why you want to meet the person
雅思口语核心内容如何体现：
- 描述此人做的事(what) +描述人(person )+自己的评价和感受(why)，答合并Describe a band or a singer you like 话题。
- 对人的描述可自由发挥，参考回答偏重描述性格，也可参考Describe a person you have seen who is beautiful or handsome中描述外貌的语料。
Sample
I’d like to talk about one of my idols, Justin Bieber. He’s a famous singer and songwriter in Canada.
If memory serves correctly ,I discovered him about 9 years ago when his song, “Baby” went viral on the internet. The song is all about understanding and exploring the concept of love, mainly the ambivalence a teenage boy feels for his first love . It’s quite a brainwashing song and I could sing along soon when listening to it. I became obsessed with the song because of its appealing melody and its catchy lyrics.
It was after hearing “Baby” that I began to familiarize myself with Justin Bieber and his songs. What is most interesting about Justin is that he isn’t only known for his numerous hits, but also his controversial personal life. He went through ups and downs after being famous overnight. In fact, he’s now far from the immature and
inexperienced young boy. If you don't know him, you must be amazed by his rich life experiences and various music styles, and you wouldn’t peg him as being a 24-year -old young man.
I think Justin Bieber is extremely creative and has written tons of beautiful and touching songs, which has helped him grow a population of true die-hard fans. I really hope I can meet him in person one day. I would ask him to take a selfie with me, and brag about that for the rest of my life. I also have a few questions to ask him, like where he gets inspiration for his songs.
