雅思口语当季话题卡：Describe an interesting conversation you had with someone you didn’t know与陌生人的有趣谈话

思路点拨(汉语思路仅供参考)，根据有效的思路整理和个人经历的整合，来表达P2观点

这道题目的难点主要在于要求是跟陌生人的谈话。其实我们或多或少都跟陌生人交流过，比如在漫长的火车或者飞机旅行中跟邻座的人聊天;再不然跟任何店铺的售货员交流我们想要买的东西。至于有趣一词的含义同样很广，可以使谈话的内容本身很有趣，也可以是谈话过程中发生的事情很有趣。下面小编就以在超市中与一位老奶奶的交流为例，来梳理下这道题目的答题思路。

When and where you had the conversation

最近发生的一次与陌生人的有趣的谈话是在两个月前，我到家里附近的超市里去买东西。

Who you talked to

上楼梯的时候我遇到了一位老奶奶，她买了很多东西，费劲的上着楼梯。我就上去帮忙，帮她拿了一部分。出于礼貌的原因(out of courtesy)，我们聊了一会儿。

What you talked about

老奶奶很热情的问我是不是还在读书，几年级了，在哪个学校。我回答说自己已经工作了三年年，不再是学生了。

但老奶奶的耳朵有点背(deaf)，她以为我在大学三年级，就嘱咐我说要好好学习，以后找个好工作。我看到这种情况，只能装着自己还在读书，表示自己一定努力。让我觉得这次谈话很有趣的地方在于，老奶奶的耳朵有点聋，无论我回答什么，她其实都没怎么听到，只是按照自己的猜想来继续。我们说的完全不是一个话题。尽管如此，老奶奶仍然很高兴，很享受跟我交流的样子。

雅思口语当季话题卡：Describe an interesting conversation you had with a stranger 与陌生人的有趣谈话

思路点拨：以下思路仅供参考，希望大家根据自己的真实经历撰写答案

该题目有两个信息点：interesting conversation和stranger。Interesting conversation比较容易，只要大家不把interesting的意思限定为有趣的，而是有意思的，应该思路就能开阔很多。毕竟之前自己不知道的信息，不了解的领域，不明白的事情都可以归为有意思一类。第二点stranger的拓展比较容易陷入死胡同。如果大家想的陌生人是街头擦肩而过的人，那对话几乎不可能，除非是正好帮了别人，或者被别人帮助的情况。仔细想想，我们每天都会与陌生人交谈，只不过可能我们没有注意到，比如超市的收银员、医院的医生、工作中接触的人、排队一切等待的人，或者最常见，也最容易发生对话的出租车司机。

以下是小编根据具体的题目要求，给出的答案：

You should say:

Who the person is 这个人是谁

What you talked about 讨论了什么

What kind of person he/she is 他/她是什么样的人

And explain why the conversation was interesting 解释为什么这段对话有意思

我要跟你说的有意思的对话发生在意大利的一家银行里。当时我在意大利旅游，由于现金不够了，就到银行去兑换一些旅游支票。汇率看起来还好。但轮到我的时候，银行工作人员告诉我电脑系统坏了，无法做任何交易。需要一点时间修复。所以我就在银行等待。

The interesting conversation I am going to tell you happened in an Italian bank. I was travelling there and since I was running out of money, I went to the bank to cash some traveler’s checks. The exchange rate was looking healthy. But when I went to the teller, they told me the computer system was temporarily down, so they could not do any transactions. They said the problem would be fixed in a minute. So I waited.

这时我就和旁边一个同样过来旅游的人聊了起来。他是个中国人，在英国上学。他在意大利已经待了一周，下周打算去德国。他是个建筑师，打算花4周的时间环游欧洲。他告诉我一些饭店的名称，食物特别好吃，而且价格也不贵。他还给了我一份公交地图，说他不需要了。

Then I started talking to another guy in the bank. He was a tourist from China and studied in Britain. He had been here for a week, but he was moving on to Germany tomorrow. Do not copy or repost it. He was an architect and he spent four weeks travelling around Europe. He told me the names of some places where we should eat, great food and not too expensive. He also gave me this map of the bus system. He said he did not need it anymore.

我觉得这段对话有意思的原因是我本来没有想到会在银行跟一个人聊天。但是这确实发生了，而且我从他那里得到一些有用的信息，以及我未来旅游的建议。

The reason I find this conversation interesting is that I never expected to chat with someone in the bank. But I did and got a lot of useful information and some advice for my coming tour.

雅思口语当季话题卡：Describe an important letter you received 收到的重要信件

思路点拨：以下思路仅供参考，希望大家能够根据自己的真是情况撰写答案

该题目只有一个信息点：important letter重要的信件。现在大家应该都很少使用真正的纸质书信，如果把思路限定在这方面的话可能会觉得该题目难度有点大。但稍微转变一下思路，虽然我们不手写书信了，但电子邮件却变得越来越常见了。我们可以把电子邮件的内容说成信件。这样就容易很多。具体的思路拓展大体有两个方向。第1，信件本身很重要。比如这是自己导师给自己论文的修改意见，或者学校发送的活动时间地点，或者银行发送的某种通知。当然，对于各位考雅思准备出国的考生来说，最为重要的信件应该就是心仪学校给的offer了。第二，信件的书写者很重要。她/他可能是自己暗恋已久的某个人，或者是自己好多年不联系的某位朋友。具体的思路扩展大家还可以参考下从他人那里得到的好 消息和电子邮件这两篇文章。

下面是小编根据题目的具体要求，给出的参考答案：

Describe an important letter you received 收到的重要信件

You should say:

When you received it 你什么时候收到的

Who sent it 谁寄的这封信

What it was about 它的内容是什么

And explain why it was important 为什么它很重要

我要告诉你的重要的信件是来自UCL大学的offer。去年这个时候，我开始申请许多英国大学，希望我可以到那里去完成我的研究生学位。我按要求提交完毕各种材料，开始了令人紧张的等待过程。7个月过去了，各个学校的申请窗口逐渐关闭。周边同样申请的同学也大多数都拿到了学校的offer。但是我申请的3所学校里，有一所已经明确表示拒绝，另一所将我放在waiting list 上，而我最想去的UCL还没有任何回音。我开始觉得可能我没有机会到英国读书了

The important letter I am going to tell you is an offer from University College of London. About the same time last year, I embarked on the application for universities in the United Kingdom, hoping that I could complete my mater degree there. I submitted all the required materials and began the anxious waiting. Seven months had passed. The application windows of many universities gradually closed and a lot of students around me had received their offers. However, among the three colleges I had applied for, one had declined me, one had put me on the hopeless waiting list, and the last on UCL, where I wanted to go most, still had no news. I began to wonder that maybe I could never go to study in UK.

一天下午，我和我的室友去打羽毛球。中场休息期间，我开始向他抱怨自己的经历。这时，我同学过来，告诉我有一封我的信。它来自UCL招生办公室。我的心脏开始剧烈跳动，我禁不住的想，这不会又是一封拒绝信吧。我深吸一口气，尝试让自己平静下来。打开之后，它的开头写着亲爱的XXX，祝贺你。我如此兴奋，开始在羽毛球场欢呼起来。这吸引了很多人的注意。

One day afternoon, I went to play badminton with my roommates. During the break, I complained to him about my application experience. Right at that moment, my friend came over and said there was a letter for me. It turned out to be from the UCL student admission office. Do not copy or repost it. My heart immediately began to bump frantically. I could literally feel it at my throat. I could not help to wondering if it was another rejection. I took a deep breath and opened it. Right at the top, it stated that ‘Dear XXX, congratulations’. I was so excited that I started to whoop in the badminton court even before I finished reading it.

这封信改变了我的命运，我本来已经打算找工作了。但我终于可以实现自己的梦想。

This letter changed my life. I had been planning to work after graduation. But now, I will go the United Kingdom and realize my dream.

当然，考官随后可能会追问关于重要信件的问题,不可掉以轻心。

雅思口语当季话题卡：Describe an important change in your life 人生中的一次重要改变

思路点拨(汉语思路仅供参考)，根据有效的思路整理和个人经历的整合，来表达P2观点。

You should say:

What the change was

一个人生中很大的改变就是减轻了拖延症(procrastination)

When and where this change happened

要说道这个毛病，还得从我高中一年级分班二模的时候说起，我们为了分到一个”重点班“都会拼了命的学习。不过由于我总是想当然的认为还有足够的时间留给我复习，结果那次考试就考得十分的不理想。

What caused this change

后来发现了这个毛病后，我开始痛改前非，从每一次的小考试备考开始慢慢给自己定下严格的目标的方案。一步一个脚印，我最终战胜了拖延症。

And explain how you benefited from this change

我从一个拖延症晚期变成了一个心智健康的人，这件事情对我本身来说已经是一个自信心的提升了，我感觉人生多了一些希望，做什么事情都有一些动力了，也不再怀疑自己的能力。这个改变对我后来其它毛病的改正都起到了积极的效应，我第1想到解决问题的时候不再是畏惧，而是勇敢面对。

雅思口语当季话题卡：Describe an experience you spend your time with a child与孩子共度的一段时间

思路点拨(汉语思路仅供参考)，根据有效的思路整理和个人经历的整个，来表达P2观点

这道题目难就难在大多数烤鸭极其缺乏与孩子相处的经验。毕竟现在国内以独生子女为主，20左右的年轻人很少有弟弟妹妹，同时年龄又没有到做父母的时候，感觉无话可说毫不奇怪。其实仔细想想，我们还是有跟孩子相处的经验的。那就是过年走亲戚的时候，谁家还没有几个孩子。当然这段经历并不能说特别美好，但雅思官方也没要求一定要说出个真善美来。所以我们可以多一些真诚，少一些套路，实话实说就好。下面小编就以过年时候亲戚带小孩来家里为例，来梳理下答题思路。

When you spent time with this child

上次与小孩共度一段时间是春节的时候。当时我表哥带着他5岁的孩子按照传统习俗来我家拜年。父母和他聊天，照顾孩子的任务就落在了我头上。

Who this child was

他是我外甥，但我们平时并不怎么见面。

What you did together

我对他缺乏了解，不知道该怎么照顾他。这时我突然想起来我自己在这个年纪的时候特别喜欢看动画片。于是我就在电脑上找到喜羊羊与灰太狼，一部在中国非常流行的动画片，给他放起来。我也在旁边坐着一起看。他看起来完全被动画片所吸引，眼睛一眨不眨的盯着屏幕。

And explain how you felt about it

说实话，这并不是一段很美好的经历。动画片的情节对于一个20多岁的成年人来说太过幼稚，很难吸引我的注意力。我基本上是坐在电脑前面放空自己，一直发呆。但我又不能离开，毕竟孩子年纪还小，万一不小心从凳子上跌倒受伤就麻烦了。这次经历让我觉得照顾孩子是一件很费力气的事情。它不仅需要耐心、认真，还需要忍受自己并不喜欢的东西。

当然，在谈到与孩子在一起的经历的时候，还有一张题卡于此紧紧相连，雅思口语考官可能会请你Describe an enjoyable experience in your childhood 童年的愉快经历，请各位烤鸭仔细准备，不容忽略。

雅思口语当季话题卡：Describe an experience that you taught a friend or a relative 描述教授朋友或亲戚的经历

思路点拨：以下思路仅供参考，希望大家能够根据自己的真实经历撰写答案

该题目有两个信息点：taught和friend or relative。Taught：对大多数考生而言，教育往往第1反应就是教授知识，或者讲解作业一类的事情。其实我们的思路完全可以再开阔一些，教修电脑也算教育，教说话也算教育，教如何使用手机也算教育，甚至教怎么游戏通关也可以算。这样我们就可以大程度的避免跟其他人答案雷同，让考官感兴趣。第二个信息点friend or relative说明自己的专业并不是教育或者专职老师，只是客串一下。而且这两者的身份也决定这件事不太可能发生在课堂上，有事先的准备等。

下面是小编根据题目的具体要求，编写的参考答案：

You should say:

Who you taught 教的谁

When you taught 什么时候教的

What you taught 教的什么

And explain how you felt about the teaching 这件事有什么感受

我要告诉你的经历是我教会我妈妈怎么使用手机微信发送语音。我妈妈是个将近60岁的老太太，没有受过高等教育，高中毕业之后就参加了工作。她生活的中心一直都在家庭上，把我和爸爸照顾的特别好，对科技发展并不太关心。因此，面对日新月异的各种技术，她有些跟不上时代，不知道该怎么使用。

The experience I am going to tell you is that I taught my mother how to use Wechat to send audio messages. My mother is an old lady marching towards her 60s. She did not attend college but went to work directly after high school, which was quite common in her era. Ever since marriage, her life center has been put at the family and she made sure my father and I eat well and dress well, and we have a nice clean house. Thus she did not have much time to pay attention to the development of technology and often felt puzzled facing all those high-tech devices like smart-phones, laptops and smart televisions.

去年过年回家，她问我知不知道怎么使用微信发送语音。因为她年纪大了，眼睛有些花，发送短信比较吃力。我说当然。然后耐心的给她说如何打开app，如何切换文字和语音，如何录音，应该对着哪说话。她非常认真，甚至把这些步骤记在纸上。在练习了4,5遍之后，她终于可以自己操作，笑的特别高兴。

Last spring festival, my mother asked me whether I knew how to send audio messages through Wechat. Since she was getting older and developing presbyopia, texting became pretty challenging. She figured she might use audio messages instead, but did not know how. Do not copy or repost it. I said of course and patiently showed her how to open the app, how to switch between text and audio, how to record, where she should speak to, and how to send. She was so careful that she even wrote down all these procedures. After several practice, she could do this by herself. I saw a big smile appear on her face.

我自己也特别高兴，我妈妈已经照顾我几十年，现在我终于有机会照顾她了。

I was happy too. My mother has been tending me for all her life. Now it is my turn to take care of her.

雅思口语考试非常青睐朋友相关的话题，大家在准备过程中可以再参考一下新结交的朋友和朋友这两篇文章。

雅思口语当季话题卡：Describe an experience of good service in a shop or restaurant 描述在餐馆或者商店的一次优质服务体验

思路点拨(汉语思路仅供参考)，根据有效的思路整理和个人经历的整合，来表达P2观点。

这张话题卡难度系数中等，还是有很多可以选择的经历来表达。比如，一次开心的同学聚餐或者散伙饭，或者在哪个国家的免税店的优质服务。

Describe an experience of good service in a shop or restaurant

You should say:

一次我体验到的优质服务是在泰国的普吉岛，当时有一个SPA店让我印象十分深，叫Let’s relax.

When it happened

我记得第1次去那应该是在14年的一个圣诞节前夕(a week before the Christmas)

Where it happened

当时我们在普吉岛的大街小巷逛荡，吃吃喝喝。走累了，就找到一家外面装修还不错的SPA。

How you felt about it

进入店门之后，发现其实里面的装修(decoration)比外面更加完善(well furnished), 当时前台的接待(reception)十分的热情礼貌。可能是因为这家SPA店上了一本叫《孤独星球》(Lonely Planet)的畅销旅游手册，到访的人十分的多，不过即便这样，店员也给我们倒上了茶还送上了美味可口的小饼干(cookies)，十分贴心(considerate)。

And explain why you think it was good service

我觉得这个地方服务好的原因不仅仅是因为那里的服务周到，更是因为他们都很尊重每一位顾客(pay respect to every customer)。

雅思口语当季话题卡：Describe an exciting book you have read 描述一本让人振奋的书

思路点拨：以下思路仅供参考，希望大家能够根据自己的实际经历撰写答案

阅读相关的话题一直都是雅思口语很喜欢考察的内容。大家在准备的时候可以参考下想要再读的书和杂志这两篇文章。

这道题的关键词是exciting, 它在牛津词典中的解释是causing great excitement or interest 因此童鞋们不要搞错了，很多人会以为单单是令人很兴奋的书。所以，只要是产生浓厚兴趣的都算做这个范畴的书。

You should say:

When you read it

What type/kind of book it is

What it is about

Why you read it/why it is exciting

一本我读过的让人振奋的书是《The Lonely Planet》，它是一本内容很丰富的世界畅销旅行指南。

An exciting book that I have read is the Lonely Planet, which is a very popular and informative traveling book in the world.

我第1次读到这本书还是在去年的时候，那个时候我从JD上购买了这本书。我打算用它来作为我去新西兰旅行的一个必不可少的向导。

The first time I read it was during the last Christmas. I saw an advertisement about this book series, and immediately bought it on JD Read, which is an online book selling platform. It was a must for me during that time because I wanted it to be my helpful tour guide when I was traveling around New Zealand.

这本书很有意思，因为它不仅仅有很多地图和介绍风土人情的图片，而且还有最新的酒店、餐饮、博物馆等咨询。

I thought this book was quite worthwhile reading, because there’s not only a lot of vivid pictures and maps which indicated some cultural aspects about New Zealand, but also provided up some up-to-date contact information of so many awesome hotels, cafeterias and museums, etc.

让我感觉很振奋的点在于，通过这本书我发现了一个很好但是人又少的度假村，在哪里我静静地享受了两个星期的美好时光。

What made me feel very excited about this book was that it enabled me to find a very wonderful and quiet resort that was not known to most travels in New Zealand. Do not copy or repost it. This resort had first class service, and provided us tasty breakfast without charge. This place also allowed me to make some Maori friends who taught me a lot useful Maori expressions. I spend my most memorable two weeks there during the whole last year.

雅思口语当季话题卡：Describe an enjoyable experience in your childhood 童年的愉快经历

思路点拨：以下思路仅供参考，希望大家能够根据自己的实际经历撰写答案

该题目有两个信息点：enjoyable和childhood。前者要求该段经历必须是愉快的，所以像什么考试不好，回家挨打等经历就不要提了。第二个childhood要求该经历必须是小时候。农村和城市里孩子的童年应该差别很大。农村的话，可以说偷菜、抓蟋蟀、爬树等。城市的话可以是游乐场、博物馆、郊游等。除此之外，我们甚至还可以说玩游戏。碾压全场，带领队友走向胜利等。

P.S 与childhood相关的P2还有Describe a childhood friend of yours

下面是小编根据具体的题目有求，给出的参考答案：

You should say?

When did you have this experience? 这段经历发生在什么时候?

Where did you have this experience? 这段经历发生在什么地点?

Who were with you? 你跟谁在一起?

What did you do? 你做了什么?

And explain how you felt about it 你感受如何?

我要告诉你的愉快经历发生在我12岁的时候。当时我们省的省会，郑州，开了个游乐场，我从电视里看到广告，一直要求我爸爸带我过去。经过我持续不断的骚扰，他终于同意了。

The enjoyable experience I am going to tell you happened when I was 12 years old. Then a new amusement park opened at Ji’nan, the capital of my province. Ever since I saw its advertisement on the television, I had been harassing my father to go there. Eventually he yielded and promised to take me there on weekends.

周日一大早，我们就起床出发。游乐场有些远，我们开了1个小时的车才到达。刚到门口我就被震惊了。之前我只在电视上见到过那么多的娱乐项目。我们尝试了来回摇摆的海盗船，互相撞击的碰碰车，垂直下降的跳楼机等惊险项目。但我最喜欢的还是过山车。它在轨道上爬升、滑落、倒转。在这过程中有一个几乎垂直的坡度，过山车在坡的边缘还停顿一下，以使我充分感受即将坠落的恐惧。我的心脏真的快跳出嗓子眼了。

We set out very early in the morning on Sunday that week, since the park was a little far away, which took an hour’s drive. At the arrival, I was astonished by the variety of entertainment facilities. Some of them were beyond my imagination and had not even appeared on the television. We tried Pirate Ship Ride, which swung back and forth, subjecting me to various levels of angular momentum, bumper cars, which we drove to crash each other, and the Mega Drop, which fell from a height of 15 meters. But my favorite was the roller coaster. Do not copy or repost it. It was designed to follow an elevated railroad track with tight turns, steep slopes, and inversions. There was an almost vertical slope and the coaster would stop for a moment at the edge of it in order to elicit your fear. My heart was literally pumping at my throat.

我特别喜欢这次经历。直到现在我都觉得它好像是在昨天一样。

I really enjoy this piece of memory. It is as vivid as that just happened yesterday.

接着考官会追问你关于童年的问题，各位烤鸭多加准备和思考。

雅思口语当季话题卡：Describe an English lesson you had 描述曾经上过的一节英语课

思路点拨：以下思路仅供参考，希望大家根据自己的真实经历撰写口语答案。

这是道题是一道从曾经的雅思口语话题卡经过稍微改变的题目。曾经的考题要求考生描述一节你上过的并且还很喜欢或者享受的一节英语课。

而这道题并没有对于英语课的感受下个具体的定义要求。因此，你可以写一节你很享受的英语课。同样，你也可以写曾经觉得上得糟糕透了的英语课(这里当然可以说是不某一位老师比如体育老师教的一节英文课(P.E Teacher无辜躺枪) ，或者也可以说上了一节专业课，十分专业，搞的自己蒙圈头大了。。)

当然，你也可以说一节自己不喜欢的一堂英文课。

下面是小编根据具体的题目要求，给出的参考答案：

Describe an English lesson you had

You should say:

What the lesson was about 课程是关于什么的

Where you studied it 你在哪学的

When you studied it 什么时候学的

And explain why you studied this lesson 为什么要学这一课程

十年前，我上过一节英文课，永远也不会忘记。

Well, an English lesson I had that was deeply stuck in my memory was actually happened nearly a decade ago.

这堂课本身并不无聊，而且很值得听。但是我记得是在十一国庆节之后的那一周上的，但是我还处在十一长假综合症之中，加之身体不适，得了冠状疱疹病毒，身体是不舒服到了极 致。

The lesson itself was by no doubt worthwhile taking. However, I was not that comfortable during, as I remember, the first week right after the National Day. I was having a holiday syndrome, you know, always recalling the wonderful precious moments when I was with my comrades on the battle of the League of Legends, which was quite popular among youngsters like us. Plus, I got a cold and was even affected by the coronary herpes, which made me feel quite exhausted.

我记得那节课是JENNY给我们上的，我身上的疱疹病毒让我全身不适，特别是在肱二头肌那个地方的皮肤十分的瘙痒。

I clearly remember that it was a lesson about the American foods given by my favorite teacher – Jenny. You know the itches under the skin right on my biceps really tortured me like I was a poor little man swimming in the river near the water dam that was not gonna give you a single chance to get back to the land. Do not copy or repost it. You can’t imagine how hard it was for me to stick to the end of the lesson.

好在同学在我最困难的时候帮忙把我送进了医院。

It was Tony who was my classmate that helped me out when he noticed my discomfort and sent me to the hospital, and I ended up getting better after that life-long English lesson.

雅思口语当季话题卡：Describe an advertisement you remember well 描述一则记忆犹新的广告/记忆深刻的广告/印象很深的广告

思路点拨：以下思路仅供参考，希望大家根据自己的真实经历编写答案

谈起广告，想必大家从小到大应该看得不少了。尤其是随着如今互联网的发展，我们在优酷爱奇艺等视频平台上看到的广告种类繁多。小编小时候就觉得中国的广告比外国的广告要简单粗暴一些。通常是喊几句广告词然后直接呈现产品，这样很容易让人知道你是卖的啥产品。不过同样的广告多了，也不太好记忆。相比之下，国外的广告就要文艺得多，通常都是带有小故事情节的，播放到最后才知道这是某某公司在打广告。对于考生而言，小编建议大家选取一个自己生活中印象最深刻的一则广告。如果实在没有看过或者忘记了之前看的广告，也可以选取我们生活中的日常必需品来谈。当然，广告也不局限于电视或者网络，路边的广告牌以及报纸上的都算。

题目

Describe an advertisement you remember well

You should say:

Where you saw it

What it was about

What it was like

Why you remember it well

参考答案

Well, an advertisement I remember well was the one selling beverages. It’s a brand called Hainan Coconut Tree Milk.

一个让我记忆深刻的广告是关于卖饮料的广告。是一个叫海南椰树牌椰汁的品牌。

I remember it was during the Spring Festival Gala of 2008 that I got to know this ad for the first time. You know what, the time during the Gala on TV was very precious, and usually companies from all industries wanted to bid for a chance to show their product. I saw this coconut milk commercial right before the gala began, so you know how dear that ad fees would be.

我记得是在2008年春季节年欢晚会期间我第1次看到了这则广告。你知道吗，电视晚会期间的时间是非常宝贵的。通常各行各业的公司都会去竞标为产品打广告的机会。我看到这个椰汁广告正是在晚会开始的时候，所以你可想而知那个广告花费有多贵了。

Honestly, the art design of the ad was inferior to their counterparts, but it stood out from them all by its impressive way of presentation. It just showed up the Chinese words of Hainan Coconut Tree Milk with a huge LOGO. I couldn’t see any animation, but can only hear a broadcaster announcing the brand name. The voice announcement was actually three seconds in length but was played for three times in one go, which lasted for nine seconds in total.

老实说，这个广告的设计与它们的类似产品的广告相比差多了，但是偏偏用一种很独特的呈现方式从所有的广告中脱颖而出。这广告只是显示了海南椰树牌椰汁的汉字加上一个巨大的LOGO。我看不到任何动画，只能听到播音员在播报着品牌名称。播报的声音其实有三秒钟长度但是却被一下子播放了三遍，所以一共是九秒钟的时间。

At that time, I thought it’s the worst ad design I had seen in my life. However, it really worked pretty well as when I woke up in the morning in the following days, the repeated magical voice was still lingering in my head.

那个时候，我觉得这是我人生中看到最挫的广告了。然后，这广告的确见效了，因为当我接下来几天早晨起来的时候，脑海里一直在回荡着那个富有魔性的声音。

The reason why I remember it so well is that this repetitive vocal branding just implanted into my head, making it difficult to forget.

我为什么对此记忆如此深刻是因为这重复的品牌声音植入了我脑子里，不是特别容易掉它。

雅思口语当季话题卡：Describe an activity near the water 水上活动

思路点拨：以下思路仅供参考，希望大家根据自己的实际经历撰写答案

该题目有两个详细点：activity和water。因为是项活动，所以描述的重点不要放在风景上，而是集中于具体干了什么，怎么干的。至于水water，江河湖海都可以。两者结合，我们能够很轻松的得到一些具体项目。刺激一点如冲浪，水上滑翔伞，摩托艇，冲锋舟。文艺一些如潜水，划船。贴近童年一些的，如摸螃蟹等。其实这道题目的用词稍微有些误导，尤其是near上。根据第三部分的附加问题，我们可以很明显的看出，考官想问的并不是靠近水，但是在陆上的活动。而是跟水相关的活动。

另外，同样是sport，可以参考 Describe a famous athlete you know 。

下面是小编根据具体的题目要求，给出的参考答案：

You should say:

What it is 活动是什么?

When you did this activity? 什么时候进行的?

How you did it? 怎么做的?

And explain how did you feel about it? 感受如何

我要告诉你的活动是观鲸之旅。去年的时候，公司组织到日本旅游。我们可以在观鲸鱼和潜水之间选择一个，我选了观鲸鱼。

The activity I am going to tell you is a whale-watch experience. Last year, my corporation organized a trip to Japan. According to to the plan, we could either go for the whale watch or choose diving. I opted for the former one.

早上8点，旅游公司到酒店门口接人。乘车到码头，签完协议之后就乘船出海，去寻找鲸鱼。很快我们就到达鲸鱼产卵的地区，不时有鲸鱼冒出水面。旅游公司的人甚至给它们取了名字，Echo, Kiwi, Samson 和moon dancer。Samson和moon dancer经常一起出现，而kiwi总喜欢靠近船边。它们每个还有自己的性格。Moon dancer非常优雅，她会轻轻出现再潜入水中。Samson就比较有活力。它总是跳出水面。Kiwi总是发出很大的噪音，能很轻易的找到她。而moon dancer同样很容易识别。因为她后面有个巨大的鳍。

The travel agent picked me up at the hotel at 8 o’clock in the morning and transported me to the dock. After signing up some agreement, I boarded on a boat and set out to search for the whales. Soon we reached the area where they conducted reproduction and there were whales appearing on the surface of the sea from time to time. Do not copy or repost it. The travel agent even named them, Echo, Kiwi, Samson, and Moon dancer. Samson and Moon dancer often emerged together, but it was Kiwi who was the real character. She loved to come close to the boat. They all had their own personalities. Moon dancer was very elegant and curved out and into the water very smoothly while Samson had a lot of energy. He was always leaping out of the water with great vigor. Kiwi made a great deal of noise, so we could often pick her out straight away. Moon dancer was also easy to find because she had a particularly large fin on her back.

虽然因为晕船有些恶心，但看到鲸鱼我非常兴奋。这是我第1次在现实中看到鲸鱼，他们比我想象的还要大，还要漂亮。

Though I was a little seasick because of the waves, I was so excited to have this experience. It was the first time I saw whales in real life and they were even bigger and more beautiful than I had expected.

雅思口语当季话题卡：Describe an achievement that you are proud of 引以为豪的成就

思路点拨：以下思路仅供参考，希望大家能根据自己的真实经历撰写答案

该题目有两个信息点：achievement和proud。前者的扩展一些考生可能会觉得比较困难，觉得自己从小到大也没有什么特别的成就。其实不然，成就可大可小，往大了可以说设立公司，获得比赛冠 军，赢得奖学金等;往小了可以说学习终于进步，科目终于及格，教会奶奶使用电脑，游戏里领先他人等日程生活中的事情。只要有成功的感觉就好。信息点proud要稍微简单一些。骄傲的原因可以是其他人没做到，自己做到了;可以是其他人觉得自己做不到，自己做到了;可以是自己都没想到自己能做到。换个思路，骄傲也可能是因为自己的成就帮助到别人，解决大多数人都会遇到的困难等。

下面是小编根据具体的题目要求，给出的参考答案：

You should say:

What it was 它是什么

How you did it 你怎么达成的

How difficult it was 它有多困难

And explain why you are proud of it 解释你为什么为之自豪

我要告诉你的成就是我终于通过了大学的高数课程。从小到大，我的数学成绩一直都不好。我并不是不努力。事实上每次上课我都很认真的听讲，做笔记，全班就我的笔记最细致。课下我花费大量的时间都花在了数学上。跟其他人相比，我绝 对是个勤奋的好学生。

The achievement I am going to tell you is that I finally passed my advanced math examination. Since I was a little kid, math had been my nightmare. It was not because I was lazy. Instead I worked really hard. I took down every word the teacher said and made the best notes among my classmates. After class, I spent hours on my homework. Compared to others, I could fairly say I was diligent.

但是，我好像并没有数学所需要的天赋。有时候在课上，我会想老师用的跟我平时使用的是同一种语言吗?为什么我一句话也听不懂呢?黑板上的每个数字和符号我都认识，但他们合起来是什么意思呢?然而，我并没有放弃。每次我有任何不能理解的地方，我都会去问老师。我可以看出他稍微有些无奈。当然，我也会去骚扰同学。作为回报，我会给他们买小吃和饮料。

But it seemed that I didn’t possess the talent that math required. Sometimes during the class, I would wonder if the teacher was using the same language I used. Otherwise, why couldn’t I understand a single word he said? Do not copy or repost it. I could recognize every digit and mark he wrote on the blackboard, but they simply didn’t make any sense to me. However, I did not give up. Every time I had something I don’t understand, I would approach my teacher. I could tell he was a bit annoyed, but anyway. I also harassed my classmates, and in exchange, I would buy snacks and drinks for them.

我的努力终于没有白费。高数考试中，我得了B+。我知道这对于许多人来说甚至不是个令人满意的成绩。但我已经很骄傲了。我设法完成了超出我能力范围的事情。这最重要。

My efforts finally paid off. I got a B plus in the advanced math examination. I knew it wouldn’t even be a satisfactory grade to many others. But I was proud. I managed to complete something that was beyond my capability. That was important.

这些引以为豪的成就，考官会就此话题卡展开一系列的问题，详细问题点击成就类问答题解析。

雅思口语当季话题卡：Describe a traditional product in your country 你国家的传统产品

思路点拨：以下思路仅供参考，希望大家根据自己的真实经历撰写答案

该题目有两个信息点：traditional product传统产品和your country你的国家。你的国家只是起一个限制作用，只要大家别说成明显是别国的东西就好，比如牛仔裤、牛津鞋等。中国的传统产品很多很多。最有名的应该有三种：瓷器，丝绸，和茶叶。瓷器不用多说，中国的英文名称China就来自于瓷器china。丝绸的话是古代中国的主要对外商品之一，丝绸之路的名称相信大家都听过。茶叶在明清时期也经常出口，不过饮用方法在国外有所变化。英国的茶里要加奶和糖。所以大家在说的时候要明确说明是Chinese tea。除此之外，中国的传统产品还有什么中药、旗袍、唐装、糕点等。如果实在想不起来的话，大家可以搜索下中华老 字号，就能出现很多。需要注意的是，虽然题目说的是传统的，但其实产品的历史并不需要特别悠久，有个两百年左右就可以了。不要把自己的思路限制在几千年的传承上。

下面是小编根据具体的题目要求，给出的参考答案：

Describe a traditional product in your country

You should say:

What the product is 该产品是什么

When you tried this product for the first time 你什么时候尝试的第1次

What it is made of 它由什么制成

And explain why you like this product 你为什么喜欢这一产品

我要告诉你的传统产品是中国茶叶。根据古代神话，茶叶是由神农在5000多年前发现的。一片叶子正好从附近的树上掉到他烧开的水里。他认为茶叶可以清洁肠胃，并有解毒的功效。茶叶与中国文化和历史交织在一起，并被认为是柴、米、油、盐、酱、醋等7种生活必需品之一。根据制作方法的不同，中国茶叶可以被分成五种类别。

The traditional product I am going to tell you is Chinese tea. According to popular legend, tea was discovered by Chinese Emperor Shen Nong about 5000 year ago when a leaf from a nearby shrub fell into water the emperor was boiling. He believed that tea can clean our stomach and serve as antidote. Tea is deeply woven into the history and culture of China. The beverage is considered one of the seven necessities of Chinese life, along with firewood, rice, oil, salt, soy sauce and vinegar. And it can be classified into five distinctive categories based on the different fry methods.

自从我记事开始，茶叶就是我生活的一部分。当你沏茶的时候，只需要在茶叶里添加开水就可以。永远都不要加糖和奶。稍微等待一会，以便茶叶的颜色，香味能够散发出来。接下来深吸一口气，欣赏茶叶独特的香味。然后喝一小口。通常来说，一开始会有点苦，但十几秒之后，你反而会体会到甘甜的感觉。

Ever since I remember, tea has been a part of my life. When you make a Chinese tea, just put it into boiling water. Never add milk and sugar. Wait for a few minutes so that the color, flavor and goodness to come out. Do not copy or repost it. Then you take a deep breath to appreciate its fragrancy and begin to sip. Generally speaking, it would taste a little bitter at first, which I suspect may be the reason that Chinese tea is not popular abroad. But after several seconds, you can feel sweetness through your tongue.

我喜欢茶叶，不仅因为它有助于身体健康。同时它还是一种很好的社交方式。闲暇的时候，我喜欢邀请两三个朋友，借着喝茶的名义一起聊聊天。

I love tea, not only because it is beneficial for my health, but because it is also a good way to socialize. During my spare time, I often invite two or three friends under the excuse of tasting some special tea and have a wonderful time.

雅思口语当季话题卡：Describe a time you were not allowed to use your mobile phone 描述不允许使用手机的一次经历

看到这道题目，大家一般会想到考试的时候禁止带手机，这个场景很容易想到，但是怎么说呢?难道我要说说考场上偷偷带手机被抓了个正着? 当然你可以这样子写 考官也不会针对你曾经有作弊嫌疑这次口语就给你的鸭蛋的

When and where it was

一次我不带手机的经历是在我上大一那会儿，我正要跑海淀黄庄的海淀剧院听马云在那儿的一场讲座

Why you were not allowed to use your phone

我花了一个半小时好不容易到了会场，结果被门卫安保大哥给拦截在了外面，原因就是我带了无线通讯设备，而且尴尬的是，周围的寄存箱还都装满了，没地方隔我的个人物品(personal belongs)了。

And explain how you felt about not being able to use your phone

不过好在与门卫大哥好心将我的手机手下临时保管了，我开心的听完了马云的演讲，出来的时候(这里有两个场景可以写，1.出来后门卫大哥跑路了 ，2.大哥把手机还给我了 )，我觉得这次经历很难忘，因为这是我大学里第1次犯这样的蠢事(silly mistake)，希望以后多提前看清楚要求，不要再犯类似的错误了。

与该题目相类似的，还有一道新题目，高兴使用手机的经历Describe a time you felt happy that you used your cellphone，不容忽视。

当然，还有其它的话题卡会考到，如美好的婚姻: Describe a couple you know who have a happy marriage

雅思口语当季话题卡：Describe a time you went to a crowded place/Describe a crowded place you went to 拥挤的地方

思路点拨：以下思路仅供参考，希望大家根据自己的真实经历撰写答案

该题目只有一个信息点：crowded place拥挤的地方。因为中国人口众多，所以小编瞬间就想到很多很拥挤的地方。比如，春运的火车站，排特别长得队才能进站，候车厅里人站的密密麻麻;比如以前没有高铁时的火车，走廊里都坐满了人，上厕所是一种奢望;比如黄金周的旅游景点，从高处望下去，只见人头，不见地面;比如演唱会的现场，散场和进场时极易造成交通拥堵;再比如某些网红餐厅，基本要等上2个小时左右。相信大家也都有某次人挤人的经历，想到之后跟考官说出来即可。

题目

Describe a time you went to a crowded place

另一个版本为：Describe a crowded place you went to

You should say:

When you went there

Where the place was

What you did there 吗

And explain why you went there / how you felt the crowded place

参考答案

我要告诉你的拥挤的地方是春运时的火车。春节是中国文化中最重要的一个节日，全国各地的人，无论年纪有多大，都会回到自己的家乡，与自己的父母、朋友、亲戚共度假期，跟圣诞节类似。我也一样。因为大家出行的日子差不多，因此会给交通系统带来极大的压力。

The crowded place I am going to tell you about is the train during the Spring Festival. Spring Festival is the most important festival in Chinese culture. No matter where he is and how old he is, every Chinese would return to his hometown and celebrate the festival with his parents, relatives, and friends. I would do the same thing as well. Since people choose almost the same time to set off, the transport system is under great pressure.

我仍然记得大二那一年寒假回家时火车拥挤的样子。一进车厢，我就被震惊了。座位上、过道上、车厢连接处，甚至座位下，到处都是人。有些人自己买有马扎坐着，有些人只能站着。他们肩并着肩，背靠着背。幸运的是，作为一个学生，我享有购票的优先权，因此我好赖有个座位。但从入口到座位的路简直如地狱一般，我得仔细观察，才能保证自己不会踩到别人。坐到座位之后，再想移动就是种奢望了。我必须小心控制自己的饮水，因为上厕所也是极其困难的过程。

I still remember how crowded the train was when I returned home in my junior year at university. The moment I stepped into the coach, I was astonished. There were people everywhere, be it on the seats, in the aisles, in the junctions between cars and even under the seats. Some people sat on the stool they bought, while some just stood, with their shoulders against shoulders and backs against backs. Do not copy or repost it. Luckily, as a student, I enjoyed the privilege to buy tickets in advance, so I had got a seat. But the journey from the door to the seat was quite challenging. I had to be very careful so that I would not put my foot on the limbs of somebody else. Once I sat down, movement was a luxury. I had to reduce the amount of water I drank as much as possible, for going to the toilet was almost impossible.

这趟旅程非常痛苦。幸运的是，第二年中国推出了高铁，火车拥挤情况得到极大的缓解。

This was a really tough journey. Fortunately, China launched high-speed trains the year after, which greatly alleviate the crowd of the train.

雅思口语当季话题卡：Describe a time you need to arrive early 提前到达

思路点拨：以下思路仅供参考，希望大家能够根据自己的真实经历撰写答案

该题目只有一个信息点：arrive early 提前到达。生活中需要我们提前到的事情有很多。可能是自己心仪工作的一次面试，可能是自己期待已久的一场演唱会，可能是跟女孩的第1次约会，也可能是要去某个机构办些事情。这些都是大家遇到这道题目时可以说的东西。

下面是小编根据题目的具体要求，给出的参考答案：

You should say:

When it was 什么时候

What time you arrived 你什么时候到的

Why you need to arrive early 你为什么要提前到达

And explain how you felt 感受如何

我要告诉你的经历是我为了一场面试，提前到了很久。那是大二暑假，我尝试申请自己心仪已久的一家公司的实习生。我精心准备自己的简历，在网上将它提交，也收到公司hr的回复。在我和这份实习之间，唯 一的障碍就剩下最后的面试。

The experience I am going to tell you is that I arrived early for an interview. That was the summer vacation during my senior year in university. I tried to apply for an internship at Baidu, the company I hoped I could work in after graduation. I polished my resume, submitted it through the website, and got the reply for human resource department. The only obstacle between me and the internship was an interview.

面试被安排在一个我从来都没有去过的写字楼里。从百度地图上看，从我学校到那儿乘坐公交车大概需要1个半小时的时间。中间没有地铁，而打车又超出我的预算。考虑到北京的交通状况，我担心路上会有拥堵或者到达之后，找不到具体位置。因此我提前3个小时出发。没想到路上相当顺利。我只用了一个小时就到达面试地点。

It was set in an office building I had never been to. The map said it would take approximately an hour and a half to arrive. There was no available subway route and a taxi would be beyond my budget. Do not copy or repost it. Considering the traffic condition in Beijing and the possibility of getting lost, I decided to set off 3 hours earlier. Surprisingly, the journey was quite smooth, and I only spent one hour on the road. So there were still 2 hours left.

我在周围瞎逛，心里回忆着之前查找的这个公司的资料并设想面试时可能会问道的问题，直到真正的面试时间。面试非常成功，我如愿以偿的拿到这份实习。

Instead of being frustrated, I used the precious time to recollect the details about this company and practice the answers to the possible questions. The interview went well and I got the internship as I wished.

紧随其后，考官会追问道arriving early相关问题，可以把之前的想法融入进去，也可以多多深入谈论。

雅思口语当季话题卡：Describe a time you felt happy that you used your cellphone 使用手机的愉快经历

思路点拨：以下思路仅供参考，希望大家能够根据自己的真实经历撰写答案

该题目有两个信息点：cellphone和happy。Cellphone手机已经成为我们日常生活中必不可少的一样物品。但需要注意的是，这里题目中使用的是cellphone一词，而不是smart-phone，因此我们要更多的关注手机的通话功能。而不是智能手机所带来的游戏、邮件、天气等等的附加功能。第二个信息点happy高兴比较让人难以理解。不少同学可能会疑惑使用手机有什么好高兴的。小编推测，这应该是一道很早之前的口语话题，这次又被翻出来了而已。题目本身想让大家比较的应该是手机和固定电话，前者可移动的特点带来什么好处。因此我们可以扩展一下内容：坐车的时候接到电话面试，在荒郊野外打电话求救成功，在路上接到电话通知自己被心仪的大学录取了。

以下是小编根据具体的题目要求，编写的参考答案

You should say:

When it happened

Where it happened

Who you were with

And explain why you felt happy by using your cellphone

我要告诉你的经历发生在一年前，当时我正在申请英国的许多大学，希望我可以到那里去完成我的研究生学位。那时候是4月份，许多学校的申请已经截止，我也听说好多同学都拿到了通知书。而我申请的3所学校里有1所已经拒绝了我，另一所把我放在waiting list上，而我最想去的学校还没有任何回音。我开始觉得，可能我没有机会到英国读书了。

The experience I am going to tell you happened last year, when I was applying for universities in the United Kingdom, hoping that I could complete my mater degree there. It had come to April. Many colleges’ applications had met their deadline and many of my classmates had received their offers. However, among the 3 universities that I applied for, one had declined me, one had put me on the waiting list, and the last one, UCL, where I wanted to go most, still had no news. I began to wonder maybe I could never go to study in the UK.

然后，一天下午，我和同学一起去洗澡。当时我还住在学校，宿舍里没有卫生间，需要走20分钟才能到公共澡堂。路上我正向他抱怨的时候，手机响了。接通之后，发现对边是UCL的招生办公室。他说看过我的ps和推荐信，觉得我很有竞争力，但是暂时还无法决定给不给offer，希望可以做一个简短的电话面试以做参考。不知道我有没有时间。我说当然有。然后他问了我几个很简单的问题，面试就结束了。

One day, I went shower with my best friend. I was living in school, and we did not have bathroom in the dormitory. If we wanted to go shower, we would have to walk for 20 minutes before we reached the public shower room. On the way, I was complaining to my friend about my application, and then my cellphone rang. Do not copy or repost it. It turned out to be the UCL student admission office. He found my qualification was very competent through the personal statement and the references, but could not make decision without a brief telephone interview. He wondered whether it was possible to do it right now. I said of course. Then he asked a few simple questions and hang up.

2天之后，我收到了UCL的录取通知书。我超级兴奋，也很高兴去洗澡的时候把手机带在身边。否则的话，很有可能我会错过面试，进而失去到UCL上学的机会。

Two days later, I received an offer from UCL. I was so excited and felt happy to have my cellphone. Otherwise, I might has missed the interview and lost my chance to go to UCL.

当在话题卡谈到手机的时候，考官会继续追问你关于手机使用方面的问题 ,需要烤鸭们仔细准备，不可掉以轻心。

雅思口语当季话题卡：Describe a time when you had a special cake特别的蛋糕

思路点拨(汉语思路仅供参考)，根据有效的思路整理和个人经历的整合，来有效表达P2 观点

这道题目的难度应该主要在对special一词的理解上，毕竟什么样的蛋糕才算是特殊的蛋糕是一个很主观的问题。而且单独描述蛋糕的话，我们也很难说的很详细或者有意思。这时候我们可以稍微扩展一下，蛋糕特殊不是因为它本身而是因为场合，比如它是你获得的第1个生日蛋糕，或者这个蛋糕是陌生人送的等等。下面小编就以特殊场合的蛋糕为例，来梳理下答题思路。

What kind of cake it was

这个特殊的蛋糕比较小，直径(diameter)大概只有15厘米。表面覆盖着巧克力，顶上放着几个草莓。它非常美味。

Who you had it with

那大概是两年前，我和我最好的朋友到青岛(海边的一个城市)去玩。

When and where you ate it

那天正好是我的生日。我想这反正不在家里过不过都无所谓，就没有跟朋友说。中午我们在一家餐厅吃饭的时候，朋友突然说他有事情要出去一会儿，让我等他5分钟。我说好的。5分钟之后他带着这个蛋糕回来了。

And explain why you think it was special

这个蛋糕本身虽然很好吃，但并没有什么特别的地方。让它变得特别的是我和朋友之间的友谊。有一个人会记着你的生日，并偷偷做着准备给你一个惊喜。再也没有比这更好的事情了。

雅思口语当季话题卡：Describe a time that you had a free gift 免费礼物

思路点拨：以下思路仅供参考，希望大家根据自己的真实经历撰写答案

该题目只有一个信息点：free gift免费礼物。因为题目特意强调了是免费，所以这个东西应该本来是要收钱的。这样一来，像生日礼物，周年礼物，情人节礼物，或者感谢礼物等本来就不要自己掏钱的物品就不能说了。日常生活中，我们接触到的免费礼物也很多，不过绝大多数都是商业广告行为附带的。最常见的有，办信用卡送电器，充话费送自行车，扫二维码加关注送毛绒玩具，商场里达到一定金额送东西等。我们随便挑一个说就好。

下面是小编根据具体的题目要求，给出的参考答案：

You should say:

When did you have this gift 什么时候得到的礼物

Where did you have it 从哪得来的

What was the gift 礼物是什么

And explain how did you feel about it 你感觉如何

我要告诉你的免费礼物是辆便携自行车。我大二的时候得到的。当时刚刚开学，为了与自己的竞争对手竞争，通信运营商联通在学校里开展一项商业活动。根据你充值金额的不同，它会赠送不同的礼物，有优盘，玩偶等。如果你一次性充值500块钱，它会给你一辆自行车。自行车的轮子很小，只有常见自行车的一半大。座椅和车把高度都可以调节。整辆车子被涂成浅绿色，上面还有联通的标志。

The free gift I am going to tell you is a portable bicycle which I got at my junior year in University. That was the right beginning of the term. To attract student customers and compete with its rival, the communication operator company, China Unicom, set up an advertisement campaign. It would give you various gifts including key rings, flash disks, and fluffy toys and so on, according to the amount of money you top-up at the site. Do not copy or repost it. If you top-up 500 yuan at a time, you would get a bicycle, whose size was only the half of what we usually saw on the street. The height of seat and handlebar were adjustable and the whole body was painted light green with the logo of China Unicom on it.

当时我正好想买辆自行车，以减少自己的通勤时间。我的校园比较大，从宿舍走到教室要20分钟的时间。这在国外可能正常，因为宿舍和学校是分开的。但在中国，宿舍就在学校里，这就是段很长的时间了。

Then I happened to need a bike to reduce my commuting time. My campus was huge and it took me 20 minutes from dormitory to classroom. It is common in western university as students live outside of the campus, but in China, where we have dormitory right in the campus, that was a long time.

因此我充了500，并拿到了这款自行车。老实说，它并不是特别好看。但它却是让我的生活方便了很多。更重要的是，这还是免费的，因此我很是挺满意的。

So I charged 500 yuan and got this bike. To be honest, it was not very nice, as you can imagine with the color and logo. But it did make my life much more convenient. What was more important was that it was free. So generally speaking, I was quite satisfied.
