2008年前三个月的话题依旧延续2002---2007的话题题库内容，新题出现较少。e 网小编通过对同一时间的考题搜集发现，当天口语考试题目的在全球各地的差异不大，在中国国内的各大城市则出现了同一天各地相同话题的情况，这些话题的总量在20个左右。对于
1． 话题范围广，而且有不断扩大的趋势。
尽管每次考试的话题范围有限，但是每次考试的话题范围都会有变化，这样一来，每个月4次考试的很多问题都会不一样。另外，part 3的延伸问题会由考官来提问，内容根据考生的回答带来衍生。所以，真正考试中考生所碰到的实际提问会有很多。很多考生过分依赖历年考试回忆来准备雅思考试，但是碰到考试问题有些调整时则反应不过来，造成很多停顿状况，最后的考试分数会很低。在本文的最后会给大家一些考试话题精选，但是考生应实际提高自己的考试应变能力，认真听考官的提问，根据雅思口语的实际评分标准的要求，有针对性地回答考官的问题。
2． 口语考试第二部分的问题深入
从这11次的考试Part2的实际考题来看，考题的深入化已经是不争的事实。具体内容可在本文结尾的部分找到。话题涉及到环境，交通，语言，文化，手工艺品和传媒等，这些话题尽管是老题，但是在过去出现的次数不频繁，进入2008年，这些题目已逐渐成为主流问题了。所以，教师的教学中和考生的备考中要充分重视这些比较深层次的话题，并在平时不断地加以训练，从而能在考试中获得高分。
3． 口语考试回答问题的完整程度对于考试的分数起到关键作用
完成程度是包括内容和语言两方面的。内容方面的完整是指考生的对于考官的问题应从comparing, describing, explaining和speculating四个方面来阐述，从而达到逻辑的完整性，换句话说就是我们所熟悉的5W–1H。语言的完整性是指发音和流利程度方面的，停顿和重复会大大影响最后的分数，发音最起码要做到能让考官听懂，这两项是最基本的要求。因此，即使我们知道了考试的题目，要考到高分还是有难度的。另外语法和词汇这两项也要做到完整，这就体现在句式结构的完整和词组搭配的完整上，这需要平时的积累。
