  朗阁托福培训中心的分析发现,在独立任务物品类话题当中,题目可以分成两类:具体事物类和抽象事物类。具体事物可能让你描述一件礼物、一本书、一幅画或者一件衣服;抽象事物可能让你描述你喜欢的一种艺术形式,你给年轻人的一条建议,让你开心或难过的一条新闻或者你的一项小成就。

  一、具体事物类

  具体的物品在brainstorm的时候是比较容易想到的,因为都是身边实实在在存在的东西,所以不可能在几秒的思考之后毫无头绪,不知道说什么。稍微难一点的地方在于,很多东西同学们不知道如何去描述。比如说一件衣服,它的材质、花纹、设计等专业用词容易难倒一部分人,描述一件艺术作品的时候一些太专业的东西也不太好说,但是我们完全可以有意识地去避免这些不熟悉的东西,转而说一些自己熟悉的,例如得到或者见到这些东西的过程或故事,自己看到这些东西的感受,具体形态只需要从自己熟悉的颜色、大小方面去说就足够了。

  以下是我们经常见到的具体事物类的题目:

  Describe the most important gift you have received. Why is it the most important gift? Include details to support your explanation.

  Describe a book that you think is interesting. Explain why this book is interesting to you. Include details and examples in your explanation.

  Describe a memorable painting or photo you have seen before. Explain why you like it or dislike it. Include reasons and details to support your response.

  A foreign friend is going to have a meal in your home. What kind of food would you like to prepare for this foreign friend? Why? Use specific reasons and details to support your choice.

  Describe your favorite means of transportation. It could be bicycle, automobile or train. Explain why you enjoy it most. Include details and examples to support your response.

  Describe your favorite style of clothing. Include reasons and details in your response.

  关于Describe your favorite style of clothing.这个题目,我们可以这么回答:

  All girls like fancy clothes and there is a saying that there is always room for new clothes in a girl’s closet. I’m no exception. However, the plain-looking casual style is my favorite when choosing my clothes. I love T-shirts a lot because they are comfortable and all-match. When I’m confused which piece of clothes match my shoes or bag, a white T-shirt will always be the right answer. Also, I’m a girl who likes sports. So T-shirts and jeans seem durable and cool when I go hiking with my friends or dance in the square.

  关于Describe a memorable painting or photo you have seen before.我们可以这么回答:

  I can’t forget the photograph hung on the wall of my grandparents’ house. It’s our family photo. It was taken in my grandfather’s birthday ten years ago. No member of our family was missed in this photo, so it is very valuable for us. Everyone in the photo smiles as if nothing is annoying in our family. The next year after the photo was taken, my aunt passed away in an accident. So the reunion captured in the photo can’t be realized again any more. Since I work in another city, I seldom see this photo after I graduated from my high school, but I still remember that photo and the happiness in my family.

  二、抽象事物类

  说到抽象事物类话题,很多同学会卡在关brainstorm上,但只需要记住一个原则抽象名词具体化--也就是把题目当中提到的任何看不到摸不着的东西落实到具体生活当中的具体事物中去。比如提到happiness,就要立刻在脑子里给幸福下一个定义,比如说吃得下饭、睡得着觉、笑得出来就叫做幸福,那么再找一个让自己感到幸福的东西就容易多了,可能是妈妈做的家乡菜,爱人之间的一个拥抱,甚至是一部经典的喜剧片。

  同样,提到opportunity,首先想,机会是干什么用的?机会就是帮自己成功的。那么接着想自己目前取得了哪些成功?比如说自己成功得到了一个令人羡慕的工作,那么我是怎么获得这个机会的?原来是源于一个朋友的介绍。这样的话,抽象的名词就被赋予到真实生活的具体事情当中了。

  Choose one of the following work of art: song, poem and painting. Explain why you like it most. Use specific reasons and examples to support your answer.

  Describe a job, career or profession which you wish to pursue. Explain why this job is your ideal job. Include reasons and details to support your response.

  Describe a piece of advice which was given by a friend, a family member or a teacher of yours. Explain how this advice helped you to solve your problem. Include reasons and details to support your response.

  Describe a piece of good news which made you feel happy. Explain why you felt happy about that news. Include reasons and examples to support your response.

  Describe a special opportunity that you have been given in your life. Explain why it is important to you. Include reasons and details in your response.

  Describe one difficulty you have encountered and how you overcame it. Include reasons and details to support your response.

  Describe one kind of your skills which you are good at (such as drawing pictures, playing basketball). Explain why this skill is important to you. Include reasons and details to support your response.

  Describe the most important decision that you have ever made in your life. Explain why this decision is important to you. Include reasons and details to support your response.

  例如:Describe a piece of good news which made you feel happy.可以这样回答:

  I’d like to share a good news of myself which made me feel very happy recently. I have just received an offer which tells me that I was accepted to be a volunteer in a supporting education program, which I have focused on since I was in university. I started to do charity work when I entered university. I organized donation for the children in the west of china, subsidized three primary school students using the money I earned from part-time job. Now I have the opportunity to see them by myself and help them face to face. I cherish this chance and will do my best to help them.
