How to collect topic materials for IELTS speaking preparation

First, facing many questions, students can only say a few words, most of which are basically the same. For example, a famous animal in China, the standard answer of China students is panda. Except that it has a white body and black eyes or it is cute, there is little difference between students and other students. Secondly, facing a considerable number of questions, students feel speechless. For example, at a wedding you attended, many students said that they had never attended any wedding, which led to being speechless in the examination room. First of all, students understand the fact that there is no need to tell the truth in IELTS speaking. Because usually, the fact is that we don't understand this topic at all. Even if I can say it, I'm afraid it's similar to other students. It's a boring and monotonous answer. Such an answer will definitely not get the ideal score in the IELTS test. Therefore, as long as the answer is reasonable and consistent, you can use it. In a word, what we have to do in conversation is to be a loyal storyteller. Based on such a principle, we can begin to prepare materials. Here are some preparation methods. First of all, learn to be a conscientious person, chat with classmates and friends at ordinary times, and pay more attention to collecting other people's life experiences. For example, a classmate vividly described his experience of traveling to Yunnan. Even if you have never been to Yunnan yourself, you can adapt this passage into an excellent IELTS speaking travel answer. Secondly, if you are really speechless about a topic. We can use the most developed network platform to find the answer. For example, when preparing to describe the topic of a park, Nanjing students often aim at Xuanwu Lake Park, so we will hear many students describe exactly the same thing, for example, there is a zoo in the park with different kinds of animals, which is difficult to arouse the interest of examiners. So if we use the Internet to search for answers, what results can we get? In Google or Wikipedia, we can get all the information about Disney in California by typing the keywords Disney, California. From the background of this park to the brief introduction of various parts of this park. For example, regarding a scenic spot named redwood creek challenge trail, we got the following information: Redwood Creek Challenge Trail (opened on February 8, 2006, 5438+0): an area for children to play, with the wild setting of Shasta Mountain, suspension bridges and steel wire bridges. It also has rock climbing and bear brother scene caves. It is also designed for adult adventure. This text description, together with the attached pictures, can give us a clear understanding of the specific situation of this scenic spot. Then let's adapt and expand this passage as our own experience, that is, a short and good conversation. Well, I don't have any special attractions, but if I had to say it, I would probably say the Redwood Creek Challenge Trail. In fact, this is a children's play area, but its design also attracts young people like me. This is a background in the shape of a mount, with exciting suspension and suspension bridge, a cut cave for Brother Bear, and even many adults. It is not difficult to see that the above oral answers and the description of Xuanwu Lake Park are all about Disney from any angle. However, in the process of network search, we should keep in mind three principles. First, search keywords should be specific, not abstract. If you search to describe a park, you won't get as much information as a specific park, Disneyland. Second, after we get the written materials, we must adapt them on the basis of the materials, because the materials we get are written and can only be used if they are revised into oral drafts; Third, we must practice the way of speaking to the mirror repeatedly, master these sentences skillfully, internalize them into our own opinions, and speak them naturally instead of "reciting". If the examiner finds that they are reciting rather than narrating, they will definitely give you a low score.
