其實在我們寫dissertation 或者essay的時候會經常用到quotation，那我們雅思口語考試的時候是否也能用quotation 呢？
我們在組織口語答案的時候的一切標準當然是雅思口語官方的評分規則，它有什麼樣的要求我們就可以怎麼樣去準備我們的考試答案！
首先來跟隨武漢環球教育王馮駿子老師來看下七分詞彙評分標準，裡面有一項是uses vocabulary resource flexibly to discuss a variety of topics; uses some less common and idiomatic vocabulary.....
這樣的話我們是可以用一些quotation 來引用一些名人名言或者諺語來回答考官的問題。
我們再看七分fluency and coherence 的評分規則要求需要做到speak at length以及詞彙中需要uses a range of complex structures with some flexibility。用quotation 是可以讓學生做到說話有長度，並且一般都會用到不同從句讓語法多樣化的展現。
那麼我們看看怎麼用呢？我們先看看幾個名人名言
第一種方法是直接引用，As XXXX once said來開頭，知道作家的名字的就可以直接加進來。
舉個例子，as Oscar Wild once said，但是有些作家名字太長了或者很難發音像尼采 Friedrich Nietzsche,這個時候我們又該如何開頭呢？我們可以不用作家名字開頭，可以這樣
As an old saying goes,
As a traditional proverb goes，
As a famous saying goes,
還可以展現一個完成時態的被動語態的開頭展現語法多樣性
A proverb has been passed down from generation to generation such as .......
在我的教學生涯中，我發現其實quotation還可以另外一種方法用，第二個名人名言的用法，名人名言之所以好，第一個是因為觀點好，第二個是句型好；
所以我們是可以模仿名人名言的句型。
在考試中，我們會經常說到sth is important,這個時候我們可以根據 Friedrich Nietzsche 說的原話without music，life would be a mistake. 可以改編without sth，life would be a mistake.
還有一句話a life without friends，is a life without sunshine. 我們可以把friends 換成sth,任何你覺得重要的東西。那我們來練習一個題目：Is it important for children to learn art?大家想想可以怎麼回答呢？
其實我們很多話題中都可以用到quotation.
1.Do you like history?
Yes， I'm especially/particularly/extremely enthusiastic about history.
As the traditional Chinese proverb goes " the former's mistake is the latter's lesson"， people can also learn from the failure in the past.
前車之鑑，後事之師
2.Do you like boats?
Definitely，cruise is my favorite.
As a traditional saying goes: "a man who travels far knows more."讀萬卷書不如行萬里路
So travelling by ship can give us a chance enjoy and explore more about the world.
3.What kinds of jewelry do you like to buy?
You know，I am a big fan of simple jewelry such as a black choker.
I think "less is more." 少即是多
Minimalism style accessories can show my personality.
4.How do Chinese people show politeness?
You know，as a traditional proverb goes，"courtesy demands reciprocity"禮尚往來
We Chinese people always send each other gifts on special or traditional festivals.
5.Who teach you to be polite ?
My parents taught me how to be in good manners when I was studying in primary school，such as courtesy expressions "please，excuse me"
Besides，when I go to middle school，I get to know that " China is known as a state of etiquette and ceremonies" from my Chinese teacher. 中國是禮儀之邦
Moreover，I also learn from the peer's behavior.
還有很多名人名言quotation可以運用到我們的口語中哦！大家可以brainstorm一下看還有一些什麼樣的quotation呢？
關於怎麼找，以及不同的話題涉及到的不同的quotation可以到我的課堂上來聽課！期待大家都可以取得高分！
