▍領思口說和寫作測驗都適用的 REE 論述方法
說到領思口說和寫作測驗,小編碰到的常見問題就是:為何在領思口說測驗中,明明很流利的回答了問題,但拿到的分數卻不高?為何在領思寫作測驗中,明明都有依題目要求答題,但成績卻不甚理想?
英檢考試的終極目的就是透過測驗反映考生的語言實力,但畢竟是英檢考試,有一定的評分方式和標準,考生除了答題外,也需要在有限的時間內展現一定的語言實力才能在考試中拿到目標分數。建議考生可以在備考期間先了解領思口說和寫作測驗的評分標準為何來進行針對性的練習。除此之外,也可以透過策略技巧,在測驗中將語言實力具體展現出來以獲得目標分數。
「REE論述方法」就是一個能快速讓考生展現語言實力、也能提升個人英語論述能力的方法。此方法包含了三個主要答題步驟:
步驟一:Respond 回答問題
為避免答非所問,或是作答離題的狀況,考生最好能在一開始答題的時候就針對問題提供明確的答案。比如,若題目問:「你認為野餐好還是在餐廳用餐好?」就可以直接回答:「我更喜歡在餐廳用餐。」
步驟二:Explain 解釋為何
少了解釋,考生容易因為回答內容過短、無法呈現語言實力而和目標分數擦肩而過。因此建議在答題之後,進一步提供具體理由,讓考官理解你的觀點。接續上方的題目例子,考生就可以解釋:「因為在餐廳用餐可以享受便利的服務,而且環境比野外更舒適。」
步驟三:Example / Expand 舉例或延伸解釋
為了讓回答內容更加豐富,同時展現語言實力並提升觀點說服力,考生可以舉例來證實自己的觀點,又或者做進一步的解釋,讓自己的觀點更加合理。(但要留意避免前後論點矛盾的狀況。)接續上方的題目例子,考生就可以說:「例如,最近天氣很炎熱,所以我和朋友選擇去一間餐廳用餐,服務員對餐點提供了很好的建議,用餐過程也時常來為我們水杯加水,讓我們有了很棒的用餐經驗。」
▍領思口說和寫作測驗作答範例參考
REE 論述方法聽起來還是很抽象嗎?沒關係!就讓小編直接提供範例解答給大家參考吧!
領思口說作答範例
題目:What is your favorite type of vacation?
Respond:
I prefer a beach vacation.
Explain:
Because I enjoy relaxing by the sea and taking part in water activities like swimming and snorkeling.
Example/Expand:
For example, last summer I visited a beach resort with my family. We spent our days enjoying the sunshine and exploring coral reefs. It was unforgettable.
題目:Which technology do you think is most useful to people in their daily life?
Respond:
I think smartphones are the most useful technology.
Explain:
They allow people to stay connected, access information instantly, and perform a wide range of tasks conveniently.
Example/Expand:
For example, I use my smartphone daily to check emails, navigate using maps, and even manage my schedule. It has become an essential part of my routine.
題目:How do you think people feel about online advertising?
Respond:
I think people have mixed feelings about online advertising.
Explain:
Some people like them because they see advertisements for things they’re actually interested in, but others find them really annoying.
Example/Expand:
For instance, if you’re shopping online and an advertisement pops up for a sale on something you’ve been looking at, it’s helpful. But if an advertisement just interrupts your video or page, it can be pretty frustrating.
領思寫作作答範例
Traffic congestion in my town has become a major issue. One of the main reasons for this problem is the growing number of vehicles on the road, as more people can now afford to buy cars (講述塞車原因並解釋). This causes serious problems like air pollution and longer commuting times, making daily life stressful(提出交通造成的問題並進一步解釋帶來的影響).
To reduce traffic, the government can improve public transportation systems and promote carpooling (提供兩個解決方式). For example, introducing a reliable bus or metro system with frequent schedules and affordable fares could encourage more people to leave their cars at home. This would make getting around much easier for those who don’t want to deal with the hassle of traffic or parking (針對第一個解決方式做解釋與描述). Moreover, promoting carpooling can help because it reduces the number of vehicles on the road, which not only eases traffic congestion but also fosters a sense of community among participants. Sharing rides not only makes traveling more economical but also environmentally friendly, benefiting everyone in the town (針對第二個解決方式做解釋與描述).
以上就是關於作答領思口說及寫作測驗都很有幫助的「REE論述方法」分享,這個論述方法主要是提供考生一個足以具體答題又能展現語言實力的作答框架,但考生若在使用這個框架做領思口說或寫作練習時,發現對於作答所需要用到的詞彙和句型有所欠缺或是不熟悉的地方,則需要額外做針對性的複習或學習,才能在考試中靈活運用「REE論述方法」來答題。
針對作答所需的主題式詞彙與句型,建議考生可參考以下劍橋自修用書:
