聯(lián)想法則一：朋友家人交際圈
不論什么話題，當我們被問到自己所喜愛的東西或是對自己的影響時，我們都可以使用這一法則，把自己的家人、朋友、同事、老板、老師、鄰居等應用起來，擴大自己答題的內(nèi)容和涉及的范圍。例如，當我們被問到：What kind of books do you like? 很多考生覺得只要回答完書的種類即可。其實，我們不難發(fā)現(xiàn)，只回答書的種類也就只有一句話，沒有什么可以繼續(xù)的了?？脊賹τ谝痪湓挻痤}的考生是不看好的，無法給出高分。那么，我們完全可以把自己周圍的交際圈全部列出來，這個題目可以這樣回答：
Well, I like novels best. When I was in high school, my Chinese teacher told me novels were helpful to improve my reading skill and writing skill, and it’s a good way to enjoy the leisure time. Then I began to read novels. I found it really interesting and helpful. My best friend and I always discuss the books together to understand the novels and the author’s background.
再來看下面的例子，
What are the benefits of reading magazines?
思路受限的答案：
I think reading magazines can help me to know more knowledge. I like reading magazines.
補充以上答案：
Reading magazines is a good way to kill time. I can see the pictures of fashionable clothes and cosmetics, and I can know some information of sports, cars or some other things. My sister and I both like collecting magazines, so we always exchange them and read. It’s quite interesting.
聯(lián)想法則二：回憶過去展望未來
對于一些題目，我們可以用過去與現(xiàn)在進行對比，若只講現(xiàn)在，大家可能會覺得沒有話說，但是一旦對比著講，我們就發(fā)現(xiàn)思路多了。此外，展望未來也可以解決話題內(nèi)容少的問題?？聪旅娴睦樱?BR> Describe an electric equipment.
這個話題我們不妨講家用電器：空調(diào)。但是，很多同學發(fā)現(xiàn)空調(diào)沒有什么細節(jié)可說，那么我們可以針對其使用電能、較環(huán)保這個點來描述，這個特點比起過去來說，是一大進步，所以我們可以在答案中增加這一部分：
In the past, people used the coal for heating, which produced a great amount of air pollution. When we use air-conditioner, we do not have to worry that in winter, we create much greenhouse gas. We just use the electricity which is environmental-friendly.
還有一個例子，是問學生What do you think are the benefits brought by technology for us? 我們可以把將來的展望加入到答案中。
思路受限的答案：
We have a lot of benefits, for example, the technology has created the computer, so we can surf online for information and entertainment.
補充以上答案：
I strongly believe that technology will increasingly make our life more relaxed and easy. Now we are using robots as the new inventions to release labor. I think in the future, robots will be popularized to every family to wash dishes, do cleaning, remind our schedule and arrangements and be friends to us. It’s promising thought.
聯(lián)想法則三：制造場景發(fā)揮想象
在回答口語話題時，我們可以自己制造一個場景，充分發(fā)揮自己的想象力，為考官編織一個有趣的答案。即使這個答案是空想出來的，只要有趣、有畫面感，同樣可以打動考官。比如說，What would you buy when you have a lot of money?
思路受限的答案：
I want to buy an island. I think it’s interesting. I will build the house there and my family all live in it and enjoy our life.
補充以上答案：
When I was a child, I read a fairy tale that there was a castle on an island. The families enjoyed their life on it. There were trees and flowers all around the island, and human did not have to eat. They were just singing songs and dancing to the music. I would like to buy an island of this kind and all my family can live there.
通過我們設計的場景，我們描繪出一幅生動而美麗的畫面，這樣考官會很享受與我們交流，而不是在聽千篇一律的枯燥答案。
綜上所述，我們在回答雅思口語話題時，把答案盡量延展出來，不要拘泥于回答問題的框架，而是盡量延伸，把家人朋友等聯(lián)系起來、把現(xiàn)在的情況與過去和將來進行對比并努力為自己的答案創(chuàng)造更豐富的場景，這樣我們就不用擔心回答的內(nèi)容單一和枯燥了。
