In this article I'd like to tell you how to behave better in an IELTS oral English test. Everyone will make necessary preparations for some possible topics in order to increase your performance in the interview. 【小题1】 What would you do if you were asked in an interview to talk about how you feel about your hometown if in fact you really dislike living there?
Some people might think that being truthful in this situation and giving a negative answer, they would not do the right thing. 【小题2】 They talk about how they love living there and give a positive answer which sounds more attractive.
【小题3】 And giving a negative opinion of something is not important, either. 【小题4】 If you have more to say by being truthful, even if it is to express a negative opinion, then that is what you should talk about.
【小题5】 And follow it up with your reasons for disliking it instead of saying “I like my hometown…” and then struggle to find something to say.

(答案→)A
解析：本文主要分析的是在采访或者面试中然后陈述自己的观点或者感受。对方实际上在于的不是你说什么，而是你是否具有表达自己观点的能力。
【小题1】A 根据下句What would you do if you were asked in an interview to talk about how you feel about your hometown if in fact you really dislike living there?说明也许会让你谈谈你不喜欢的事情。故A项符合上下文语境。
【小题2】C 根据下句They talk about how they love living there and give a positive answer which sounds more attractive.
他们讲述自己是多么喜欢生活在那里。与第一段结束的部分完全相反了。故C项符合上下文语境的串联。
【小题3】G 根据文章第二段内容作者并不喜欢生活在家乡，但是他却说自己非常喜欢。可知在采访或者面试里并不一定要说出自己真实的想法。故G项符合上下文。
【小题4】D 根据前句And giving a negative opinion of something is not important, either可知说一些不好的观点也可以。后一句If you have more to say by being truthful, even if it is to express a negative opinion, then that is what you should talk about.说明只要有观点表达就好。对方在意的是你表达观点的能力。
【小题5】F 根据下一句And follow it up with your reasons for disliking it instead of saying “I like my hometown…”可知你最好是诚实地表达自己的观点。然后再给出理由。
