当你需要描述某物如何制成或者某事如何发生时,你可以运用描述步骤 (Describing procedures)的技巧。
1 使用祈使句(the use of imperative)
Put...., Don't mix.....Pour....
2 使用表达顺序的词(the use of words indicating sequence or order),常用词汇包括:
while, and, then, firstly, secondly, finally.
3 使用一些特殊表达方式 (the use of some particular expressions)
The way it works is that...
The following procedure should be adopted...
This is done as follows...
What happens (next) is that you...
The first/next/last thing they do is ...
After they have finished that, they...
It's like this: First...and then...
The key thing is to...
练习
以上基本表达方式你一定一看就懂;而英语口语练习从来都不是看出来的,不信,你现在就试试下面的练习:
1)描述任何一个会你的运动或者游戏:比如如何做瑜伽,如何做平板支撑,如何玩某个游戏。
2)描述一个简单的生活中可以3分钟内搞定的事情怎样按步骤做:比如如何在支付宝中申请官方寄送收钱码;如何做某个快手菜;向一个没用过简书的人介绍如何在简书中写文章。
赶紧练起来吧!
