提升雅思口语表达功力：细节扩展

我们以“描述你在特殊场合穿着的衣服”这个话题为例。如果仅仅描述一件衣服，那么可说的内容很少。但是如果我们更加专注于如何描述这件衣服的背景故事和增添一些比较地道的描述，那么实际的效果是大不相同的。仅以下文为例，供广大考生参考。

Describe a piece of clothing you wear on a special occasion

Key points: Graduation, school, pink dress, accessory

Actually, in my high school, students are required to wear the school uniforms each day at school. Everyone looks the same to a great extent.（程度的描述）No one's special. So after a while, we all have the similar physical features. Baggy pants, oversized jackets, and big glasses on our faces,（生动的描述）of course（自然的语序）. Lucky enough（选取比较自然的连接词）, we had a graduation ceremony, and the high school allowed us to wear something casual（转换词性）on that very day.

For this special day, I picked up a really nice dress. My mum and I found it at an elegant shopping mall, which was stunning in the store window.（还是细节描写，而且增添了背景故事）I had my eyes on that dress immediately. It was a pink dress with a black leather belt, which was neither too fancy nor too formal.（加入形容的部分）It boasts an graceful cutting style with a U-neck shape. Somehow, it reminded me of a typical Chanel dress.（加入了西方文化背景知识）My mum said it might be too mature for my age, but I believe it was OK.（自然地加入自己的态度和看法）Now think about it, I guess I was eager to be an adult at the time, so wearing a dress that pretty could significantly improve my confidence as a 18-year-old young lady. Besides, the color was perfect for my skin tone.

Actually, a look is never finished without the right accessories.（除了衣服以外增加一些小细节，有助于丰富所描述的整体内容）I chose to wear the pearl necklace and a really nice pair of beige（稍高级的词汇）leather shoes. Not surprisingly, I got more than my fair share of compliments（地道的描述方式）at the graduation ceremony on that day.

在备考以及提高口语的过程中，我们可以做的是平时多多积累好的表达方式和各种地道的词汇及用法，然后尽可能在口语练习中不断练习和提高。通过持续的练习，相信每个学生在自己的基础上都会有不同程度的提高。
