三、状语从句经典系列
① I first got to know him/it when + 从句（过去式）
② (名词或代词) have (动词过去分词) since +从句（过去式）
③ If I had the chance, I would like to…
④ If …, then it is quite possible that I will…
以上句型只需稍加变动，便可应用于多种话题。句型之间的有机组合还可成为集合，碰到没话说的时候十分顶用。
句型①套用实例：
I first got to know him when I was studying in primary school. (人物题通用)
I first read the story/saw the programme when I was visiting my grandparents three years ago. (物品题通用)
I first learned how to skate/play basketball when I was in high school. (兴趣爱好题通用)
句型②套用实例：
We have lost contact since he moved out of town.
I have stopped watching the programme since I entered the university where TV was not available.
I have been practicing basketball on a regular basis ever since I knew how to play it.
句型③是虚拟语气，表达一种设想。当问题为would you like to…时，建议使用该句型。另外，还可以在无话可说时用来应急。套用句型：
If I had the chance, I would like to travel to California and visit my best friend who I haven’t seen for ages.
If I had the chance, I would like to ask Yaoming to autograph my basketball.
句型④是在分情况讨论问题时必备句型，也是丰富回答内容的经典招数。套用实例：
Q: What do you usually do at weekends?
A: Well, it’s hard to say. I mean, if I am with friends, then it’s quite possible that we will go window shopping or traveling around. But if I am alone, it’s more likely that I will just stay at home and do some washing and cleaning.
当然，以上两种情境还可以变换成多种可能，如按天气状况分为If it is good weather, 和If it is bad weather; 按时间多少分为If I’ve got a lot of time，和If I am fairly busy; 等等。
综上，三大英语从句在口语中的适量使用可以起到意想不到的效果，既在语法这一评分标准上赢得了优势，又可以帮助摆脱考场上无话可说的尴尬。因此，相信考生们只要肯花功夫和时间记忆以上一些经典句型并加以巩固练习，必定会在雅思口语单项方面有所提高。
