雅思口语考官非常喜欢列举两件事或者东西，让考生说出对它们的看法，这样的“对比演讲”最能考验应试者的口语水平和反应能力，说白了，对比类问题的实质其实就是make comparison。

　　当你在考场中听到考官讲出“differences”, “prefer”, “which…”, “changes”, “advantages and disadvantages”等词语的时候，你就一定要敏感地get到考官问的是对比类问题，此时，脑中储备的对比词句就应立即脱口而出。

　　朗阁海外考试研究中心的武老师通过解析雅思口语考试“对比类”话题的回答技巧，总结出了三种提升话术的方法：

　　一、入门版：比较级

　　两者进行比较时，使用比较级算是最基本的了，如eating at home is cheaper than eating out. 这种入门级的技巧只要分清楚什么样的形容词直接在单词后面加上-er或是-ier, 而什么样的形容词要在前面加上more就行了。

　　二、进阶版：修饰比较级

　　利用短语修饰比较级会让对比听起来更强烈，也会让雅思口语考官对你的英语能力更认可，例如：

　　1. Eating at home is far cheaper than eating out.

　　2. Travelling with others is a lot more fun than traveling on your own.

　　3. Going to a concert live is way more exciting than watching one on TV.

　　4. The pace of life in cities is quite a lot faster than the countryside.

　　5. Life in the countryside is quite a bit more laid-back than life in the city.

　　6. Swimming in the sea is considerably more dangerous than swimming in a pool.

　　标注出来的词汇就是用来表示比较的程度，除了我们常见的表达“much”, 这些用法能让你的雅思口语成绩脱颖而出，而如果两者对比的效果不是很强烈，我们可以用到以下的表达：

　　1. Studying with others is a bit more enjoyable tan studying on your own.

　　2. Traveling by coach is slightly more expensive than traveling by train.

　　3. Newspapers are relatively more informative than magazines.

　　4. Photos of people are generally a bit more interesting to look at than photos of scenery.

　　从以上的例子中我们就可以看出副词的高级之处了。用slightly, relatively这样的副词来表示轻微的对比也正是体现了口语表达讲究细节化，具体化。另外，在雅思口语考试中，如果大家厌倦了经常用”more”来进行比较，我们还可以尝试去用”less”来替换，增强表达的多样性，比如下面的四个例句：

　　1. Watching a concert at home is a lot less fun than going to one live.

　　2. Life is the countryside is generally less stressful than life in the city.

　　3. Watching a concert at home isn’t as fun as watching it on TV.

　　4. Mobile phones are generally not as expensive as they used to be.

　　介绍了入门和进阶两种版本的比较级，下一步，就该介绍出神入化的大师级使用法了，三种方法结合使用，不仅可以在雅思口语考试中获得高分，还能灵活运用到雅思写作考试中，提高雅思考试的整体成绩，具体内容，请看三招攻克“对比类”问题（下）
