   生活场景(Survival Context)中,咨询(Counseling),租房(Renting),旅游(Travelling),文化(Culture and Tradition),银行(Banking),购物(Shopping),会场(Conference),看病(Doctor’s)和地图(Map)为九大基本场景。


  其中,租房和旅游场景剧情最为老套。一如韩剧:男主角只要不幸必定失忆,女主角只要得病不是癌症就是白血病;雅思听力只要是Renting,必定不离租金(rent)和设施(facilities),只要是Travelling,就跟线路价格(tour price)和交通工具(transportation)脱不了干系。
  而后,文化场景是ESOL不定期推出的英吉利文化大餐,内容涵盖古香古色的老建筑(historic architecture),别具一格的小村镇(towns and villages),妙趣横生的传统节日(festivals),救苦救难的慈善机构(charity),自得其乐的足球俱乐部(football club),云云。
  另外,银行,会场,购物和看病等非主流场景也会及时出现,填补档期空白。他们各有卖点:银行里账户各色明目(bank account);开会前议程小心安排(schedule and agenda);购物时顾客精心挑选,店员殷勤推销(goods and services),看病中患者鼻青脸肿(symptom),医生妙手回春(therapy)。
  咨询和地图场景最近大热。其中地图08年9月份连续在6日和18日出现,气势汹汹,内容分别是校园(campus)和码头(port)布局,保持一贯风格,但无甚大新意。反观咨询场景,不但主题新颖,而且情节跌宕,从保险索赔(insurance claim),到转学申请(school transfer),再到场馆订票(booking),不一而足。
  应该说,ESOL导演的雅思场景是繁多的,但总有桎梏。无论是崭新的场景,还是老掉牙的场景,四大要素是必不少的,就是人物,时间,地点和事件:
  人物即是人名(name),称谓(title),和身份(identity e.g. tenant 1 & landlord, customer &receptionist, patient & doctor);
  时间即是日期(date),星期(day),
  和时点(time);
  地点体现在地址(address),会址(site), 和目的地(destination);
  事件表现为各种桥段,如护照延期(passport extension),饮食偏好(dietary preference e.g. vegetarian)之于租房场景;住宿选择(accommodation option),热门景点(landmark e.g. Stonehenge)之于旅游场景;传统活动(traditional activities),文化特色(cultural identity)之于文化场景;账户选择(opening an account)之于银行场景;商品特点(commodity features) 之于购物场景;开具处方(prescription)之于看病场景;方位辨认(orientation)之于地图场景……
  所以故事时时在变,少不了的是龙套;场景时时在变,少不了的是俗套。
