有经验的烤鸭都知道，雅思口语考试的第二部分，会让考生对事物、人物、事件话题进行具体描述，时间大概3-4分钟，其中包括1分钟准备时间，下面北京新航道小编为同学们实例解读一下这类话题的具体应对方法。卡片举例如下：
Describe a Family Member
Describe a family member that you are very close to.
Your should say:
Who this person is.
What this person is like.
How you are like and unlike this person.
And explain why you are close to this person.
而且在第二部分的描述中，对人物的描述是考试的主流话题之一。人物描述出现的概率相当高，几乎在每个月的考试里面都能遇到。一般来讲，人物描述的体现方式有以下几种：
a famous person/a child/an old person/a favorite teacher/a close family member/a close friend
而且现在又出现了一些新的表现方式，如：an interesting person/a happiest person 等。不论是怎样的表现形式，万变不离其宗，对于考生来说，只要掌握方法，都能逐一破解、举一反三。一些考生也许会有疑惑，如果只是回答卡片上的几个问题，似乎很难达到2分钟的时间长度。那么，卡片上没有没到的方面，大家也是可以描述的。但是前提是，这些虽然不是卡片问题的内容，但也必须是和该卡片主体息息相关的信息。
对于该人物的描述，考生需要注意以下几个方面：
1、对卡片上的问题进行回答。
以上卡片包含着4个问题，在笔记过程中应当以词语为基础来进行分解：
Who this person is. (人物，e.g. my mother)
What this person is like. (描述性词语，e.g. looks, personality, hobbies)
How you are like and unlike this person. (比较和对比，similarities – looks & hobbies; differences -- personality)
Why you are close to this person. (该家庭成员对自己的影响.)
2、对卡片上没有提到信息进行描述。
在准备的1分钟里面，考生可以将一些问题的答案关键词纪录在纸张上，即以上括号里面的一些内容，以起到提醒的作用。然后结合自己的情况进行相关的描述。
Sample Answer (with key words underlined):
The person I am very close to in my family is my mother. My mother is medium height who always wears a friendly smile on her face. Blue is her favorite color as she thinks it symbols peace and emotion. I think is has a lot to do with her personality. As a music teacher, she is always very patient and kind to her students. There are quite a few similarities between us. People all say that I look like my mother more than my father. We both like listening to the music and watching movies. On weekends, we often go shopping in the supermarkets or department stores. But we are also different in many ways. My mother is a good gardener. Our veranda is lined with all her gardening masterpieces, such as chrysanthemum and Chinese roses. I am not so patient in taking care of the plants. Besides, my mother can cook many delicious dishes, while I can’t at all. I have learned how to treat people and how to deal with problems on my own from her. She is the one I am close to as she really influences me a lot.
有的考生在未结束描述前，可能被考官打断(Sorry. I am gonna stop you there.)如果遇到这样的情况，是因为考官需要掌握和掌控考试的节奏和时间，打断并非是由于认为考生讲得不好，所以考生不必紧张，只需要根据考官的指令继续考试即可。这个是对考生们心理的考验，相信大家经过那么多大大小小的考试，心理素质是没有问题的。
综上所述，在人物事件描述类话题的雅思口语测试中，只要同学们理清思路，获取并不是难事。最后，北京新航道预祝大家都能取得理想的考试成绩!
