雅思口语part2话题卡:Describe an important decision made with the help of other people 别人帮忙做的重要决定
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
别人帮忙做的决定其实有很多,比如买衣服、买皮肤等。但加上重要的限定,可选择的范围就缩小了很多。如果往大了想,我们可以说说文理分科、选大学、选专业、找工作等,如果往小了说,我们可以聊聊跟男女朋友分手、选择社团等。叙述逻辑上它们的差别都不大。
题目
Describe an important decision made with the help of other people
You should say:
When it happened
Who helped you to make the decision
What the decision was
And how you felt about it
参考答案
下面给小编根据具体的题目要求,给出的参考答案:
The important decision I am going to tell you happened in my senior high school. Back then I was faced with the problem of the division of arts and sciences. According to the Chinese educational system, everyone had to choose one as his or her major and this would affect the subjects he or she took in the university entrance exam. If you choose the sciences, you need to study physics, chemistry, and biology, and if you choose the arts, you need to study geography, politics, and history.
我要告诉你的重要决定发生在高中阶段。当时我面临着文理分科的问题。根据中国的教育体系,每个人都要选择一个作为他的专业,而这个选择将会影响到高考考试的科目。如果你选择了理科,你需要学习物理、化学和生活。而如果你选择了文科,你需要学习地理、政治和历史。
I was so confused and did not know which one is better, so I went to my teacher and asked for her advice. Do not copy or repost it. As I was good at all the subjects, she suggested me to choose the sciences. She said that at this stage of my life, I would not know what I wanted to do in the future. If I had chosen the sciences, I could still change into arts degrees in the university. But if I had chosen the arts, it would almost be impossible to study the sciences because of the lack of background knowledge. I thought her words did make a sense and followed her advice.
我特别困惑,不知道究竟哪个更好。因此我找到自己的老师,寻求她的意见。由于我在每个科目上的成绩都不错,她建议我选择理科。她说,在这个阶段,我还不知道自己以后想做什么。如果我选择理科,大学的时候仍然可以修读文科学位。但是如果我选择了文科,由于缺少相关的背景知识,我几乎不可能修读理科学位。我觉得她的话有道理,就听从了她的建议。
It turned out that I had made a good decision. When I chose the universities and majors after the exam, I could choose almost whatever I want. I am really grateful to my teacher.
事实证明我做了一个好决定。当我在考试之后选择大学和专业的时候,我几乎可以选择任何我想要的东西。我十分感谢我的老师。
雅思口语part2话题卡:Describe an ideal house /perfect house描述一个理想房子
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
这个题目需要童鞋们注意的是ideal一词的含义,它不仅仅是中文“理想的”的一次,在牛津高阶英文词典中有更详细的诠释–“perfect; most suitable” 也就是完美的,十分合适的意思。所以,我们可以回忆一下曾经旅游过的地方,有没有自己觉得非常suitable或者perfect的house, 比如某位名人的故居,或者泰国的大皇宫,朋友家的别墅、豪宅等等。
题目
Describe an ideal house
You should say:
when and where you saw it;
what it looked like;
what special features it had;
and explain why you liked it/ why it is ideal for you
参考答案
下面给小编根据具体的题目要求,给出的参考答案:
I want to talk about the most gigantic house that I visited. It’s the Istana Nurul Iman Palace, which is located in Brunei.
我想要说的是我曾到访的最 大的房屋。它是努洛伊曼皇宫,位于文莱。
I went there last summer with my classmates on vocation. Our first-day schedule of traveling in Brunei was to visit some scenic spots in the Capital Bandar Seri Begawan, which was also the place where we landed by air. We were told by a kind local, who accommodated us, that the Palace is the must-see place to visit. It’s considered the largest known private residence in the world. So, we put it on our list as our priority.
我是去年暑假和同学一起过去的度假的。我们第1天在文莱的行程就是去看看文莱首府斯里巴加湾市的景点。一位招待我们住宿的本地好心人告诉我们皇宫是一个必去的地方,它是目前世界上最 大的私人住处。所以,我们就把它列在了我们行程单的优先位置。
Well, the moment I got close to that building wasn’t so exciting. It looks like very similar to other traditional Muslim structures. However, when we were led by the tour guide to the inside of this building, I soon found the greatness in this house. Do not copy or repost it. You know the ceiling was very high and the whole house was decorated with different shining transparent materials. Oh, one thing I nearly forgot to mention is that the chairs designated to the royal family that I saw were pretty and luxurious but not too exaggerated.
接近那座建筑物的时候并没有让我感觉到十分兴奋。它看起来和其它传统穆斯林风格建筑很类似。但是,当我们被导游领进建筑内部参观的时候我发现了它的壮观。屋内的天花板非常的高,整个房屋装饰了不同闪耀的镂空的材质。还有一点我差点忘记提到的是专门给皇室打造的椅子看起来非常漂亮也很奢华,不过也没有到特别夸张的程度。
The reason why I love this house is that its grandness has opened my eyes. I’ve never seen a building like this before. Also, I was quite into the peaceful environment, which made me feel very relaxed.
我喜欢这座房子的原有是它的宏伟让我开了眼界。我以前从来没有见过这样的建筑物。另外,我非常喜欢那里安静的环境,让我格外放松。
雅思口语part2话题卡:Describe an ideal house or apartment where you want to live 一个理想中的房子(描述一个你想居住的理想房子)
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
这道题可谓是十足的老题翻新,对于这篇雅思口语话题卡题目,烤鸭们不仅仅可以描述house(房屋)也可以说说apartment(公寓)。曾经的学生问过小编老师,说房子可以是虚构的吗?小编建议大家还是切合实际来说比较好,可以稍微自己修饰一下,但不要太脱离实际和主题。描述的内容可以是高大上的豪宅或者别墅,也可以是位于城市内的小公寓楼。理想中的房子不一定是要最贵的最豪华的,但一定对你来说是最有特点或者有意义的,只要大家描述出你想居住的那个理想的房子的特点并表达清楚即可。
题目
Describe an ideal house or apartment where you want to live
You should say
Where it is
What it is like
Who you like to live there with
And explain why you think it is ideal
参考答案
下面给小编根据具体的题目要求,给出的参考答案:
An ideal house where I want to live is on Phuket Island, which is in the south part of Thailand.
一个我想居住的理想中的房子在普吉岛,它位于泰国的南部。
I knew this place when I had a seven-day short trip with my friends last summer. We found this place on Airbnb, which is a very popular family hotel booking website. The house was actually located on a cliff of that island. It was just a five-minute walk from the nearest beach, which was pretty convenient for us.
去年夏天的时候,我和我的朋友们去那里度过了七天的短期旅行。我们通过爱比邻找到了这个地方,爱比邻是一个非常受欢迎的民宿预定网站。这个房子其实在那个岛的悬崖上。去附近的海滩只需要五分钟的走路时间,这对我们来说太方便了。
The house was not fancy, actually. It was a three-story detached house with walls painted in white. I guess it’s because the white color helps prevent the heat from outside. What made me feel very interested in this house was that its interior design was so western. It’s got European style furniture and kitchenware, which made me feel so nostalgic of my those days in Italy while I was a kid.
这幢房子其实并不是特别精美。它是一个三层楼高的独立屋,白色漆墙。我这猜是因为白色可以阻挡外面的热量。让我对这房子感到很有兴趣的是它的室内设计非常的西式。它有欧式风格的家具和厨具,这让我十分怀念曾经小时候在意大利的时光。
I hope in the future, I could buy at his house with the money I make and live there with my parents to get away from the cold weather during the winter.
我希望在我来,我可以用自己挣的钱买下这幢房子,然后和家人在冬天的时候住在这里避寒。
The reason why I think this house is perfect for me is that it’s rare to find a house with a design that particularly appeals to me in the coastal area in South East Asia. Plus, the price is decent compared to those in places like Hainan Province. So, I really wanted to own it as soon as possible.
我认为这个房子很理想的原因是我很难在东南亚的海滨区域找到特别对我胃口的房屋设计。除此之外,这房子的价格相比诸如海南省等其它地方的房子要便宜很多。所以,我希望我能尽快拥有它。
雅思口语part2话题卡:Describe an experience that you won a prize/Describe a prize that you received 获奖的经历/获过的奖
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
这道题目的要求还是比较宽泛的,只要是得过的奖项都可以。无论是高中足球、篮球比赛的奖项,还是大学辩论赛、歌唱比赛的奖项,又或者是专业技能比赛的奖项都可以。如果从小到大什么奖都没有得过,也可以将自己想获得的奖项说成已经拿到手了。考官不会真的去查证你有没有得过的。
题目
Describe a prize that you received
You should say
What it was
When you received it
What you did for it
And explain how you felt about it
参考答案
下面是小编根据具体的题目要求,给出的参考答案:
The prize I have won is the championship of the Mathematical Olympic Games of our province. It is a high-standard competition, organized by the government. Every year, thousands of students from different schools would take part in it and only the best could win the prize.
我曾经赢得的奖项是我们省数学奥林匹克竞赛的冠 军。它是由政府组织的高规格比赛。每年,都会有来自不同学校的数千名学生参加,只有最厉害的人才能赢得奖励。
It was three years ago when I was in the final year of high school. The reason why I participated in this competition was quite practical. It could bring a big advantage to me when I apply for the university. Even if I do not want to further my study, it will also become a highlight on my resume when I look for a job on the market.
那是三年前,我正在读高三。我参加这一竞赛的原因很实际。当我申请大学的时候,它会给我带来巨大的优势。即使我不打算进一步学习,它也将成为我找工作的时候简历上的亮点。
I had made a tremendous effort. I bought every relevant workbook I could find on the market and finished all of them. I also made notes of all the questions where I made mistakes and classified them according to the reasons. Apart from that, I consulted a former winner for his advice about the preparation.
我付出了巨大的努力,买下了市面上能找到的所有相关的练习册,并且通通做完了。我还记录自己犯错的问题,根据具体的原因将它们分类。除此之外,我还向之前的获胜者寻求备考建议。
When the results were revealed and I learned that I had won the prize, I was ravished with joy. The great efforts I had made was not in vain. Here I come, my dream university.
当结果出来,我知道我获得该奖项的时候,我陷入狂喜之后。之前的努力没有白费。我来了,我的理想大学。
雅思口语part2话题卡:Describe an experience that you went out with your friends and had a good time 描述一次你和朋友出去并享受好时光的经历/与朋友出游玩的很开心
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
这道题目烤鸭们可以选择说的事情有很多。最常见的情况就是和朋友一起出去旅游,比如说曾经去泰国的毕业旅行。另外,还可以说一些和朋友在一起做的比较有社会意义的事情。比如和朋友约好一起去西部地区给山里的孩子们支教,或者是和朋友们一起去沙漠中自驾越野等等。这里需要说明一下该题中的一个疑点-went out(外出)。go out并非仅仅指你在户外(光天化日之下)做的事情;柯林斯英文词典给出的解释为:If you go out, you leave your home in order to do something enjoyable, for example, to go to a party, a bar, or the cinema. 也就是说只要离开家了,做了一些比较愉悦的事情都算(如聚会、泡吧以及去电影院等)。
题目
Describe an experience that you went out with your friends and had a good time
You should say:
Where you went
When you went out
What you did
And explain why you had a good time
参考答案
下面给小编根据具体的题目要求,给出的参考答案:
I would like to talk about an experience that I went out with my classmate Liu Tong for traveling in Thailand.
我想要说的一次和朋友一起出去的美好经历是和我的同学Liu Tong一起去泰国旅游。
I remember it was during the last summer of our senior high school. We were about to further our studies in colleges in different cities at that time. So, we thought it would be awesome if we could have an international trip together before we say goodbye.
我记得那是在我们高中的最后一个夏天。我们那会儿正准备去不同的城市读大学了。所以,我们想着如果能在说再见之前一起来场国际旅行就超棒了。
We went to a number of places while we were in Thailand. For instance, the Grand Palace in Bangkok, the beautiful beach in Phuket Island, and a History Museum, etc. But, in my memory, the sweetest experience was in an orchard, which was located in somewhere between Bangkok and Phuket.
我们当时在泰国去了很多地方。比如,在曼谷的大皇宫,普吉岛的漂亮沙滩以及历史博物馆等等。不过,在我记忆里,最甜美的经历是在一个果园,它位于曼谷和普吉之间。
It was very big, and I remember we rode an elephant to go to different spots in that orchard. You know, each spot had its unique fruit plants that we could actually harvest on spot, which was pretty interesting. We ate a myriad of tropical fruits, some of which were exotic to me but very yummy. I previously thought durian was the most stinky and disgusting fruit to eat, but the ones in this place completely eradicated my stereotype.
这是一个非常大的果园,我记得我们当时骑着大象去了果园的不同景点。每个景点都有独特的水果植物,我们可以现场采摘,很有趣。我们当时吃了好多热带水果,有些对我来说很奇怪但是很好吃。我之前觉得榴莲是最臭最恶心的水果了,但是那个地方的榴莲打消了我之前的固有观点。
The reason why I felt I had a quality time there was that both of us were extremely satisfied with the foods there. You know, reasonable price and tasty. We had a blast there!
我认为我们在那里度过了美好时光的原因是我们都非常满意那里的食物。价格合理而且好吃。我们玩得超级开心!

雅思口语part2话题卡:Describe an experience that you received a call from someone you don’t know in the public place 描述在公共场合接到陌生人的电话/不认识的人的电话
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编写答案
接陌生人电话的经历想必每一位雅思烤鸭都经历过。最常见的陌生人电话就是广告骚扰电话了。一般这种电话打进来都是因为自己曾经注册过一些中介机构或者一些公司的账号,自己的电话被泄露或者专卖给了他人。另外,还有一少部分陌生人电话的确是拨错了号码的stranger们。不过,小编要提醒大家的是,这道题里面还有一个关键词:public place(公共场合),也就是说不是在家里头接到的,而是在诸如学校、地铁站还有公园之类的地方。把握好这几点,你就不太可能跑偏题了。
题目
Describe an experience that you received a call from someone you don’t know in the public place
You should say:
when you received the call
where you received the call
what you were doing at that time
how you felt about this call
参考答案
下面给小编根据具体的题目要求,给出的参考答案:
I had many times like this, but an impressive experience that I got a call from a stranger in the public place was about an advertisement.
我遇到过很多次这种情况,但是我印象最深的一次接到陌生人电话的情况是关于一个广告的。
It was on a summer day of my senior high school. I remember I got this phone call right after I finished my physics class. I was on my way to the washroom and my phone was vibrating, you know we were not supposed to have a phone at school, so I just turned it into a mute mode.
是我上高中的一个夏天。我记得我一上完物理课就接到了这个电话。我当时还走在洗手间的路上然后我的手机就开始振动了。我们当时是不允许在校园携带手机的,所以我就调成了静音模式。
I didn’t want my teachers to know that I got a phone with me, so I walked into a ‘safe’ place, which was a stinky toilet cube, to pick up the call. You know what, I completely had no clue about what the man on the other side was talking, and he didn’t seem to listen to my request for clarification, but just kept talking. It took me like three minutes to know that he was actually selling a kind of medicine for students.
我不想让我老师知道我带了手机,所以我就去了一个安全的地方来接电话,是一个非常臭的厕所隔间。你知道吗?我完全不知道电话那边那位男士在说啥,我让他解释一下,他似乎不听我的,只是一个劲地在那说。花费了我三分钟才搞清楚他是在给学生卖药。
You know I was pretty impatient at that time. The reason why I was acting like that was that he, at least as a professional ad promoter, should tell me the basic information about who he was, instead of being so aggressive in selling his product. Also, I was unhappy about the fact that my personal contact was disclosed to the strangers.
我当时非常不耐烦。我这样不耐烦的原因就是他作为一个职业的广告推销者,应该告诉我他的基本信息,而不是非常强硬地推销他的产品。另外,我的联系方式被暴露在了陌生人手上,我也感到不开心。
雅思口语part2话题卡:Describe an experience that you played an indoor game with others 描述你曾经和别人一起玩室内游戏的经历
另一版本的题目为:Describe an indoor game you played as a child 小时候的室内游戏
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
这道题目是当季口语新题,比较有意思的点在于大家对indoor game的理解不必局限于单个方面。通常而言,indoor game可以是室内运动,比如说乒乓球、室内攀岩、瑜伽、健身等等。另外, indoor game也可以是纯游戏类的,比如大家比较熟悉的象棋、军旗、扑克牌以及最近十几年比较流行的桌游等等。但是,swimming(哪怕是室内的)严格意义上不算室内运动。雅思小编希望大家在拿到下面的题目之后给自己1分钟时间读题并用笔做一下思路笔记,然后进行口头练习。在自我练习之后,再参照参考答案进行巩固练习。
题目详情
Describe an experience that you played an indoor game with others
You should say:
What you played
Who you played it with
Why you played it
And explain how you felt about it
参考答案
下面给小编根据具体的题目要求,给出的参考答案:
An indoor game that I played with other people that I would like to share here was a board game.
一个我和别人一起玩过的室内游戏是一个桌游。
It was called Sanguosha, which literally means Three Kingdom Kill or the Legends of Three Kingdoms. It was during the first year of my college that I got to know this game. It’s a Chinese card game based on the Three Kingdoms period of China and the semi-fictional novel Romance of the Three Kingdoms.
它叫三国杀,直译过来叫hree Kingdom Kill或者Legends of Three Kingdoms。是在我大一那会儿我了解到了这个游戏。它是基于中国的三国时期历史以及半虚构小说《三国演义》改编的卡牌桌游。
I played this game with my roommates in college. Li Kun who was the roommate that slept beside my bed in our dormitory bought this set of cards online. I still can remember how excited he was after he got the package from the delivery man. Right after he unboxed the cards, we were invited to play. Once we got the ball rolling, we just couldn’t stop. There’s so much fun in it.
我是和我的大学室友们一起玩的这个游戏。睡我床旁边的Li Kun室友从网上买到了这套卡片。我依然记得当时他收到邮递员快递时的激动心情。他一打开这盒卡牌,我们就邀请来玩儿了。我们一开始之后,就根本停不下来。这里头有太多乐趣了。
Well, the reason why I played this game was that my roommate asked me to have a try. I didn’t have any excuse to refuse. Also, I was quite into the novel Romance of the Three Kingdoms, and really wanted to see how it could be implemented into this game.
我玩这个游戏的原因是我的室友邀请的我。我找不到任何借口拒绝他。另外,我对小说《三国演义》很感兴趣,也很想知道它是怎么被运用到这游戏当中来的。
Well, this game was definitely interesting to play. It involved lots of game strategies without which you couldn’t have the confidence to win. I highly recommend this game as a way to have fun or kill time with friends.
这游戏绝 对玩起来有意思。它包含了很多游戏技巧,没有这些技巧的话你就没有信心获胜。作为和朋友一起开心或者打发时间的方式,我非常推荐这款游戏。
雅思口语part2话题卡:Describe an experience that you got bored when you were with others 描述一次与他人一起的无聊经历
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
这道雅思口语话题卡是这个季度的新题,难度系数适中。想必烤鸭们都经历过无聊的时刻,有的人感到无聊是因为反复做某一件事情时间太久,有的人是觉得人多但是与我无关系而感到无聊,这些经历都可以拿出来描述一番。雅思小编建议大家能够在参考答案之前多多给自己一些时间读题做笔记并进行口头表演练习,如果条件允许,也可以给自己录个音,这样能知道自己的出现的问题在哪里。
题目
Describe an experience that you got bored when you were with others
You should say:
When it was
Who you were with
What you did
And explain why you were bored
参考答案
下面是小编根据具体的题目要求,给出的参考答案:
I am going to talk about a gathering I participated that made me bored to death.
我想要说一说我参加的一个让我无聊至极的聚会。
This gathering was right after we celebrated the 2010 Chinese lunar new year. As a custom, we were supposed to visit relatives and friends in the following days.
这个聚会是在去年中国农历新年之后。作为一个传统,我们当时要在接下来的日子里走亲访友。
There’s a time that my parents and I went to my mother’s co-worker’s family to celebrate the festival. I thought that I would have much fun there, for example playing games with their kids who were at my age. However, when I got there, there were so many guests at their house, which made me feel difficult to move around.
有一次我和我父母一起去了我妈妈的同事家里去庆祝这个节日。我当时认为我会在那里有很多乐子,比如和同龄小伙伴们一起玩玩游戏。然而,当我到那里之后,他们家里头有非常多的人,让我感觉行走起来都比较困难。
What’s worse was that the kids were all out for fun before I came. So, I did nothing but just sit on the sofa watching the boring Spring Festival Gala replay in a noisy environment where people were playing Mahjong while chatting loudly. I had never felt that life could be this boring being a guest.
更让我感到糟糕的是我来之前孩子们已经出去玩耍了。所以,我除了在沙发上看春节联欢晚会的重播,啥事儿也没干。人们还在屋子里打着麻将大声聊天,环境十分吵闹。作为一个客人,我从来没有觉得生活有比这个更加无聊的了。
Well, the reason why I felt so bored was that there were no peers in the house to play with me. I would rather go out doing nothing instead of staying at the house alone. If I were taken to that place again, I would bring an iPad or something to kill time.
我觉得我感到非常无聊的原因是在屋子里没有同伴能我我一起玩。我宁愿出去啥事儿不做,也不愿意自己一个人呆在房子里。如果我再次去那个地方,我估计会带个iPad之类的东西来打发时间。
雅思口语part2话题卡:Describe an experience that the vehicle you took broke down during your travel 描述一次交通工具出故障的经历/交通工具坏在路上
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
这道雅思口语新题也比较贴近于日常生活,上班族或者学生党一般都会有乘坐交通工具的经历。要深入理解这道题目就需要先弄明白vehicle的含义,它不仅仅可以指我们日常生活中私家车、公共汽车或者卡车等,其实只要是能带人到一个destination(目的地)的工具都可以算作vehicle,比如自行车或者电动车也可以,这也就是为什么人们经常把这个词翻译成‘载具’的原因。
题目
Describe an experience that the vehicle you took broke down during your travel
You should say:
Where it happened
When it happened
Who you were traveling with at that time
What impacts this breakdown had
参考答案
下面给小编根据具体的题目要求,给出的参考答案:
An experience that the vehicle I took broke down during my travel happened last summer while I was with my classmates having a road trip in Australia.
一次交通工具出故障的事情发生在去年夏天,那个时候我和我的同学正在澳大利亚自驾游。
I remember it was a very dry summer day. Two classmates and I were driving on a road in Alice Springs, which was a city in the north part of Australia. We were actually fully prepared for literally every aspect of this trip. You know, I even sat for the driving test to get a license before I came to Australia so that three of us were qualified to shift if unexpected things happened.
我记得那是一个很干的夏天。我的两个同学和我开在Alice Springs的一条路上,这是一个位于澳洲北部的城市。我们其实为这次旅行做好了几乎各个方面的准备。我甚至在来澳洲之前考了驾照,这样我们三个人要是发生意外还能轮班。
Things went pretty well until we were about to leave this city. We got a flat tire on our way to a national park, which shocked me while I was on the backseat. Obviously, we got a spare wheel, but it seemed that nobody had any clue about how to change it. We called the emergency number and had it changed.
在我们离开这个城市之前,情况都还不错。我们在开往一个国家公园的路上爆胎了,我坐在后排座位上惊呆了。显然我们是有备胎的,但是似乎我们没人知道怎么换。我们拨打了紧急电话,然后把轮胎换掉了。
Thank God that there’s nothing serious happened during that incident. The only impact this breakdown brought us was that the entire rescue consumed us an arm and a leg and three hours. So, we had to cancel a plan to a small scenic spot on our trip due to this breakdown.
感谢老天这次意外没有发生什么严重的事情。这个抛锚事故唯 一给我们带来的影响就是花费了我们不少钱以及三个小时时间。所以,由于这个抛锚事件,我们不得不取消原定去一个小景点的计划。
雅思口语part2话题卡:Describe an expensive activity that you enjoy doing occasionally 描述一个你喜欢做的昂贵的活动
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
该题的难度系数适中,需要考生描述一种价格昂贵的活动。因为activity的含义很广,所以我们可以描述的内容也很多。比如我们可以聊聊偶尔吃一顿价格昂贵的大餐,尝试一种花费巨大的运动,购买自己喜爱的物品(比如手办)等。
题目
Describe an expensive activity that you enjoy doing occasionally
You should say
What it is
Who you do it with
Why it is expensive
And explain how you felt about it
参考答案
下面是小编根据具体的题目要求,给出的参考答案:
An expensive activity that I love doing sometimes is actually Golf.
一个我有时候喜欢做的昂贵运动就是打高尔夫球。
It is a game that allows you to use long sticks to hit a small ball into the holes in the grassy area, and it’s also considered here in China a game for the rich.
这是项让你用长杆击打小球让它进入草地洞内的运动。而且,它在中国也被称之为富人们的游戏。
Well, I’m obviously not a rich guy. But, I’m occasionally invited by a friend of mine and thus get a discount to play some during the weekends to unwind. You know, normally it would be at least around 500 RMB for a single time or 1800 if you play in a decent field.
显然,我不是一个有钱人。但是,我偶尔会被我的朋友邀请过去,因此也享有折扣,会在周末的时候打一会儿来放松一下。通常情况下,打一次高尔夫最 低需要大概五百人民币,如果要是在一个不错的场地就得一千八。
I feel that the main reason why it’s so costly is that the maintenance fee of a golf club is immense. You know, they have to take care of the massive grassland and pay for the rent of the field, which is actually more expensive than that abroad. Plus, the cost of labour is also skyrocketing as China has undergone rapid development in the past years.
我觉得高尔夫球如此贵的主要原因就是高尔夫球俱乐部的维护费用很巨大。他们不得不照料大片草地,还得为场地付租金,这在比国外的花费要大很多。除此之外,由于中国近些年的发展,人工成本也在飞速上涨。
Well, I felt playing golf was quite fun and enjoyable. You know, there were always some unexpected but interesting incidents that happened during the course such as missing the ball or failing to swipe it. Also, I love to hit the green and enjoy the great outdoors, which is good for my eyesight after a long week of study.
我觉得打高尔夫球很有意思也很享受。玩得过程中总是会有一些意外但是又有意思的事情发生,比如球失踪了或者压根儿没击打中高尔夫球。另外,我喜欢去绿地上享受户外,在一周的学习之后,这对我的视力有好处。
雅思口语part2话题卡:Describe an event you experienced in which you did not like the music played 不喜欢的音乐
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
music一词的涵盖范围很广,即可以是歌曲,也可以是纯音乐。不喜欢的理由也有很多种,比如旋律单一,歌词低俗,或者只是不符合自己的品味而已。当然我们也可以从场合和音乐不匹配这一角度出发来思考,比如高 档西餐厅放土嗨歌曲,或者街头小店放纯音乐。
题目
Describe an event you experienced in which you did not like the music played
You should say
What the event was
Where you were
What the music was like
And explain why you did not enjoy the music
参考答案
下面是小编根据具体的题目要求,给出的参考答案:
I’d like to tell you about a terrible experience I had when I was in school last year.
我想要告诉你去年我在学校的糟糕经历。
It’s the Summer Games held annually in our school. During this event, the selected students would present their classes to participate in different games to fight for their honors.
这是我们学校一年一度的夏季运动会。在这个赛事里,赛选出的学生会代表他们的班级去不同的运动比赛中争取荣誉。
I was, obviously, not the chosen one. So, I was sitting in the area where our class belongs to on the stand of the stadium, writing kind of sports journals that the school required us to submit.
我呢,显然不是那个被选中的人。所以,我当时就坐在运动场看台属于我们班级的那个区域写一些学校要求我们提交的运动笔记。
The background music in the stadium was so monotonous. You know, it’s the March music on repeat when no broadcasters read the scripts of the events. I just couldn’t stand the repetitive beats, which often distracted my attention to writing.
当时赛场上的背景音乐特别单调乏味。在广播员不念赛事稿件的时候就是那种进行曲的循环播放。我无法忍受那种重复的节奏,经常分散我写作的注意力。
The biggest reason why I disliked the music was that it’s quite boring, which I thought would neither cheer the athletes nor excite spectators like me.
我不喜欢这音乐的最 大原因就是那音乐太无聊了,我当时想着既不会鼓舞运动员也不会让让我们感到兴奋。
Part 3 追加问题
Why do many young people spend a lot of money on music concerts?
Do you think older people like the same music as young people?
Do you think music concerts are suitable for old people to attend?
Why do shopping malls often have background music?

这道雅思口语话题卡是本季度的新题,难度系数适中,考察考生描述jounery(旅行)的能力。小编在这里提醒大家,这里的一个重要的考点就是enjoyable一词,大家所描述的旅行一定得是很享受的那种,不能是不愉快的经历。除此之外,不少考生对于public transport的概念可能有偏差,我们看到这词就能想到中文的“公交”,但是我们通常很容易把公交直接认定为巴士(bus)。大家当然可以写乘坐bus去旅行,但是广义上而言,公共运输的交通工具还包括了铁路上的火车等等。因此,小编建议大家拿到如下题目之后可以先给自己一些时间独立准备并口头演练一遍,最后参考范文进行学习。
题目
Describe an enjoyable journey by public transport
You should say:
Where you went
Who you were with
What you did
And how you felt about it
参考答案
下面给小编根据具体的题目要求,给出的参考答案:
An enjoyable journey by public transport that I would like to say is actually the one I had last summer.
一次我搭乘公共交通去愉快旅行,我想谈谈我去年夏天的一次经历。
I went to the Qinghai lake which is located in Qinghai Province, somewhere in the west part of China. It’s the biggest inland lake in China.
我去了青海湖,它是位于中国西部地区的一个省。它是中国最 大的内陆湖。
I had this journey with my classmates from senior high school. You know, that was the graduation season, and we thought that a train trip to a place that was far from home would be a wonderful way of commemorating our last summer before going to college.
我和我的高中同学一起完成了这个旅行。那会儿是毕业季,我们寻思着坐火车去一个离家远的地方会是一个很棒的纪念我们去大学前的最后一个夏天。
We actually traveled to a lot of small scenic spots around that major one and definitely take a serious look at Qinghai Lake for quite a while. If my memory was correct, we got a chance to ride on a horse to appreciate the beautiful natural sceneries there. We were also told by the local tenants about the history of the lake.
我们其实在那个主要的风景区周围观光了很多小景点,也绝 对认认真真花费了很久时间来看青海湖。如果我的记忆没错的话,我们有机会坐上了马儿欣赏了那里美丽的自然风景。当地的藏民还告诉了我们关于这湖的历史。
Well, I felt so grateful that I had this trip with my classmates even though train trip was a bit tiring. You know, that was the first time I realized how breathtaking a natural scenery of a lake could be. By walking and seeing the beautiful lake, the mountains behind and the blue sky above the water level, I was able to get a sense of serenity which made me feel quite soothing.
即便火车旅行有点累人,我十分感激我能和我的同学拥有这次旅行。那时我第1次觉得湖景是如此的美丽壮观。行走在湖边看着美丽的湖景,山脉以及水平面之上的蓝色天空,我内心有一种平静感,让我觉得十分舒服。

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
这道雅思口语话题卡的难度系数适中,题干中并没有很多修饰性的要求。重点有两个,一是要理解energetic(精力充沛/充满活力的)一词的含义,其次是you know的含义。You know在英文中的解释为:If you know someone, you are familiar with them because you have met them and talked to them before. (你曾经见过或则交谈过而后感到熟悉的人)。所以,最好说与自己有交集的人。例如,大家可以说一说身边的亲戚朋友、公司遇到的同事、老板以及学校遇到的老师或者同学等。建议大家看到这道话题卡之后先给自己一分钟的时间思考一下然后尝试口头演练一下,最后再参考范文进行学习。
题目
Describe an energetic person that you know
You should say
Who this person is
How you knew this person
Why you think this person is energetic
And explain how you feel about this person
参考答案
下面是小编根据具体的题目要求,给出的参考答案:
An energetic person that I know is Tong Da, who is my fellow student in college.
一个我认识的精力充沛的人是Tong Da, 他是我大学里面的学长。
I knew Tong from an association that we’ve participated in. It’s called the Communist Youth League of XYZ, which is an organization guided by our school and operated by students. He came in this group one year earlier than I did, and became one of the leaders of the team. So, it was actually during the interview that I met him for the first time.
我是在我们一起参加的社团里认识他的。这个社团叫做XYZ共青团,它是由我们学校指导,由学生运营的一个组织。他先我一年加入这个团队,然后变成了团队的领导之一。所以,我是在面试的时候第1次见到了他。
Well, one of the reasons why I think Tong is energetic is that he’s managed to finish loads of tasks, including those from the association and of his assignments. You know, the second year is the time when students normally get busier academically. However, he still stays in high spirits, despite the fact that he’s got a lot on his hands. Another reason why he is full of enthusiasm is probably that he always keeps a healthy lifestyle no matter how busy he is, and that makes him look tireless.
我认为Tong精力充沛的一个原因就是他能够搞定大量的任务,这其中包括社团的任务以及作业任务。通常而言,大学第二年学生会在学业上越来越忙。然而,他依然精神饱满,即便他手头上的活儿特别多。另外一个原因我觉得他精力充沛的原因可能是他保持着健康的生活习惯,这让他看起来不那么疲惫。
For me, I feel that Tong is definitely my role model. He’s up and coming, and never gives up when things are getting in his way, which is something that I really lack and should’ve learned. I just wish I could become someone like him in the future.
对于我来说,我认为Tong是我的榜样。他很上进,遇到困难不退缩,这点是我所缺少的也是应该学会的品质。我希望我在未来可以成为像他那样的人。
雅思口语part2话题卡:Describe an article on health you read on a magazine or the Internet 描述一篇你在一本杂志或者网络上读过的关于健康的文章/健康文章
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。
该题目难度系数中等,重难点在于可能大家并没有阅读过相关的期刊杂志或者网络文章,例如书《健康》之类的杂志可能多数为医生以及热爱养生的人们会经常订阅。不过,雅思小编建议大家仔细回忆一下自己从小到大所阅读的过的文章,或多或少会有涉及到health(健康类)的话题。现在的科技比较发达,我们通过手机就能接收很多互联网上关于保养皮肤、健康饮食、健身等内容的指南,这些都算入该口语话题卡的范围之内。
题目
Describe an article on health you read on magazine or the Internet
You should say:
What it was
Where you read it
Why you read it
And explain how you felt about it
参考答案
下面给小编根据具体的题目要求,给出的参考答案:
An article about health that I read on the Internet was about the nutrition of fruits.
一篇我在网络上读过的关于健康的文章与水果的营养相关。
It was actually a review article about what fruits were especially healthy for our bodies. It mentioned many kinds of fruits that I couldn’t completely. But, I knew the top two are the apple and avocado.
这篇文章其实是一个测评类的文章,关于那些对我们有健康价值的水果。文章中提及了很多种类的水果,我已经记不全了。但是,我知道排最前面的两个水果分别是苹果和牛油果。
I have heard about the value of apple long ago, and there’s actually a saying that goes An apple a day, keeps the doctor away. But, as for the avocado. I wasn’t so sure about that. I once noticed it in the supermarket and ignored it just because of its ugly appearance. Well, the article had informed me that it’s a perfect fruit for people who want to keep fit. It’s also known as an ideal food for patients with diabetes.
我很久以前就听说过苹果的价值了,老话也是这样说的:一天一个苹果,医生远离我。但是,对于牛油果的价值而言,我却不是特别确信。我曾经在超市看到过它,但是由于其丑陋的外表,我直接忽略了它。这文章告诉我牛油果对于想要保持健康的人来说是非常棒的水果。另外,它对于患有糖尿病的病人而言也是很理想的食物。
I read this online article from Jinritoutiao, which is one of the most popular news application in China. It had a column about nutrition, which provided some tips on whatever might be essential for healthy eating.
我是从中国受欢迎的新闻APP之一-今日头条那里阅读到的这篇网络文章。今日头条有一个关于营养的专栏,它提供了一些各类与健康饮食相关的小贴士。
Well, the reason why I read it was that I was and still am a huge fan of fruits. I wanted to know how to choose healthier ones from an array of fruits in the grocery store so that I didn’t need to ponder on what to eat every time I ran out of fruits.
我阅读这篇文章的原因是我一直特别喜欢水果。我想要了解到在食品店琳琅满目的水果中如何挑选更健康的水果,这样我在吃完水果之后不用再思索每天吃啥了。
I think this article is helpful enough for me to give me some knowledge of picking fruits to eat on a daily basis. I am glad that I read this one.
我觉得这篇文章很有帮助,它给我提供了一些日常水果的挑选知识。我很高兴我阅读到了这篇文章。
雅思口语part2话题卡:Describe an art or craft activity (e.g. painting, woodwork, etc.) that you had (at school) 描述一件艺术品或者一次手工活动
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。
此道话题卡的难度系数适中,主要的难度在于需要大家思考自己人生中与艺术或者手工相关的活动。这对于艺术生来说,可能并非一件难事儿。对于其他专业的同学来说,可能经验较少。即便如此,大家依然能够找到相关的回忆。因为,题目没有设定时间限制,所以哪怕是小学时期做的手工都算。相关的手工品/艺术品有风筝、俄罗斯套娃、四驱车、木头小鸟等木雕品、油画、水彩画等等。
题目
Describe an art or craft activity (e.g. painting, woodwork, etc.) that you had (at school)
You should say:
What you made
How you made it
What it looked like
And how you felt about the activity
参考答案
下面给小编根据具体的题目要求,给出的参考答案:
I’d like to share with you an experience I had while I was taking a course about technology at school.
我想要和你分享一次我在参加一门科技课程的体验。
We were introduced by our teacher about the notion of virtual reality and thus guided by him to make a pair of VR goggles that could allow us to play VR games.
我们老师当时给我们介绍了虚拟现实的概念,然后指导我们制作了一副VR眼镜,这副眼镜可以让我们玩VR游戏。
Initially, I thought this might be a crazy idea as we didn’t any type of technology or advanced materials such as glasses beforehand to make up one. However, things weren’t that complicated. All we needed was just a set of cardboard. To make the process easier, we ordered a set of semi-finished products with an easy-to-understand manual. It took us just an hour to get the hang of it and another hour to set up the entire thing.
起初,我觉得这有点不可思议。因为,我们事先没有任何技术或者例如镜片等先进点儿的材料来制作眼镜。不过,情况并不复杂。我们需要的只是一套硬纸板即可。为了让制作过程相对简单,我们定了一套半成品再配上便于理解的指导手册。我们大概花费了一个小时来掌握这个制作方法,然后又花了一个小时组装好了这个设备。
It really resembled the electronic VR goggles that we saw on TV commercials except that ours was just a cupboard box with a rubber band. It was easy to use. All we needed to do was insert our smartphone that was preinstalled a VR app into the front slot of the box. Then, we could enjoy the VR images simply by putting them on our heads.
它看起来真的和电视广告上的VR眼镜很类似,只不过我们的只是纸盒子和橡胶带做的而已。这个装置用起来很方便。我们需要做的就是把预装有VR应用的智能手机放入盒子前端的卡槽内。然后,我们就可以将其戴在脑袋上享受VR画面啦。
Well, I felt that this activity was quite rewarding. You know, we were not only able to have fun with this latest technology but also understood how it actually functioned. This experience definitely gave me an insight into what the future would hold.
我觉得这个手工制作的活动很有益。我们不仅仅体验到了新科技的乐趣,也同时了解了其背后的运作原理。这个经验觉得让我感受到了未来发展的方向。
雅思口语part2话题卡:Describe an art exhibition you have visited 去过的艺术展览
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
这道题对于喜欢艺术的同学来说应该十分简单。但对于像小编这样对艺术不太关心的人来说,简直是要了老命了。不过哪怕没有去过任何艺术展览,我们根据之前在课堂上所学到的内容也不难凭空编一个。我们可以幻想一个瓷器展,玉器展,雕塑展或者绘画展出来,然后再进行描述。
题目
Describe an art exhibition you have visited
You should say
When you went there
Where it was
What it was like
And explain how you felt about it
参考答案
下面是小编根据具体的题目要求,给出的参考答案:
I am going to tell you about an art exhibition that I visited last summer. That year was the 600th birthday of the forbidden city and to celebrate this big event, the administration decided to hold a series of exhibitions and display a large number of precious artworks that had been kept in the storage.
我要告诉你一场我去年夏天去过的艺术展览。那年是紫禁城600岁的生日。为了庆祝这一大事件,管理机构决定举办一系列的展览,并展出许多之前一直在仓库中存放的珍贵艺术品。
Among them, there was one exhibition called “paintings about the everyday life of ancient people” which interested me most. As a person who was pretty keen on Chinese art and customs, I realized this was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to appreciate so many masterpieces at one time. So regardless of the threat of Covid-19, I went to the forbidden city, bought a ticket and had a wonderful afternoon in the palace.
在它们之中,有一个叫做《古人日常生活画作》的展览最让我感兴趣。作为一个喜爱中国艺术和风速的人,我意识到这是一辈子才有一次的机会可以欣赏到如此多的大师作品。所以尽管有着新冠的威胁,我仍然前往故宫,买了票,在宫殿里度过了美妙的一下午。
The exhibition consisted of dozens of paintings which were arranged according to their chronological order. They depicted different aspects of normal citizens’ life hundreds or even thousands of years ago. And in the centre of the main hall was displayed Qingmingshanghetu, one of the most famous paintings in Chinese history. The scroll was 25.5 centimetres in height and 5.25 meters long and captured the daily life of people and the landscape of the capital during the Northern Song Dynasty.
该展览包含数十幅画作,按照时间顺序排列。他们描绘了几百甚至上千年前普通市民生活的各个方面。在展厅的中间是《清明上河图》,中国历史上最著 名的画作之一。该卷轴高25.5厘米,长5.25米。刻画了北宋年间人们的日常生活和当时首都的风景。
Although I had seen many of those paintings in my textbook and on the internet before, I was still amazed by their elegant strokes, perfect colours and various tyles.
虽然我之前在课本和互联网上已经看过其中许多画,但我仍然惊叹于他们优雅的笔触,完美的色彩,以及不同的风格。
雅思口语part2话题卡:Describe an argument two of your friends had 描述你的两个朋友之间的争论(朋友的争执)
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
该题难度系数适中,如果你自己没有看到过别人争论事情,那么,把自己的遭遇换成他人也可以。毕竟我们生活中难免会和朋友发生意见不合的情况。但是,同学们要理解argument这个单词的含义。在柯林斯词典中是这样定义的:An argument is a statement or set of statements that you use in order to try to convince people that your opinion about something is correct. 也就是说,它不能仅仅是吵架(quarrel)而是要带有statement(有观点的陈述)来驳倒对方的观点。只要做到这一点,就不用担心是否跑题了。建议大家先看题目自我口头作答,然后再参考范文进行学习。
题目
Describe an argument two of your friends had
You should say:
When it happened
What it was about
How it was solved
And how you felt about it
参考答案
下面是小编根据具体的题目要求,给出的参考答案:
I’d like to share with you an argument my friends had last year when we were having a gathering meal at a hot-pot restaurant.
我想给您分享一个我朋友们去年的争论。当时我们在一家火锅餐馆聚餐。
The argument was about whether God exists or not. It was the hardest question for me. You know, both of my friends were quite into philosophy, so they somehow picked up this topic.
争论的话题是上帝是否存在。这对我来说是最难的问题了。我的两个朋友对哲学特别感兴趣,所以不知道咋的就谈到这个话题上面了。
They were smart and had good reasoning and logic but when it came to this topic, it seemed that neither of them could convince each other easily. You know, they had totally different academic backgrounds. One studied history and the other concentrated on biochemistry and literally used up all the expertise they had as rebuttals.
他们都很聪明而且有逻辑,但是遇到这个话题之后,似乎谁也无法轻松让对方信服。他们有着完全不同的学术背景。一个研究的是历史,另外一个是生物化学,他们用上了自己能够用的专业知识当做论据。
They kept presenting reasoning and arguments until the restaurant was closed. It seemed that there was no evidence that could solve the problem otherwise they would become the saints of the world in history. For me, it was like a chicken and egg issue. We might never know until someday our civilization evolves at a higher level that can tackle all the unknown things of the universe.
就在餐馆快要打烊了,他们还在继续争论。似乎没有证据能够解决这个问题,不然的话,他们就是世界历史上的圣人了。对于我来说,这有点像是现有蛋还是现有鸡的问题。我们恐怕只有等到人类文明发展到能够解决宇宙所有未知问题之后才能搞得明白。
But, anyway, I was appreciative that I could listen to them arguing. It gave me an opportunity to ponder on those ideological and philosophical perspectives of our lives. We don’t just live to eat, but we also live to think. And that makes our lives more meaningful.
不过,不管怎样,我还是挺感谢他们的那场争论的。这给了我一次让我思考生活中的意识形态和哲学问题。我们活着不只是为了吃饭,更是要去思考。这让我们的生命变得更有意义。
雅思口语part2话题卡:Describe an area of science (physics, biology, psychology, etc.) that interests you 描述一个感兴趣的科学领域(比如物理、生物、心理学等)
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
本题难度系数适中。主要考察考生运用自己的经历来表达自己喜欢的学科。值得大家注意的就是,这里的area(领域)有具体的限定,一定得是science(科学、理科)的范畴。这样子的话诸如历史、社会学等人文学科就得排除在外。建议大家看到这道题目之后先自己1分钟的时间去构思一下,然后给自己一次口头练习的机会,最后再参考给出的范文进行学习。
题目
Describe an area of science (physics, biology, psychology, etc.) that interests you
You should say
What it is
When you knew it
How you learned it
And explain why you are interested?
参考答案
下面是小编根据具体的题目要求,给出的参考答案:
An area of science that triggers my interest is actually Astronomy, which studies the stars and planets and so forth in the universe.
一个我感兴趣的学科领域是天文学,它研究宇宙中的恒星和行星等。
It was actually during a school event last summer that I got to know this field. You know, there’s an Astronomy Study Association in our school that focuses on promoting the understanding of outer space objects among students and conducting some important studies. I got registered in an evening event that gave us an opportunity to observe the stars using varied types of telescopes.
其实是在去年夏天的一个活动上我开始了解到这个领域的。我们学校有一个天文学会,主要在学生中推广对外太空的认知并做一些重要的研究。我当时注册了一个晚上的活动然后获得了一个机会,使用了各种天文望远镜来观测星星。
Well, honestly, I just learned it from scratch. You know, I hadn’t known anything about astronomy before coming to the event. But, there were some volunteers who gave me a handbook providing some basic knowledge about the subject and kindly instructed me on how to use the tools to observe. I benefited a lot from this hands-on experience.
实话说,我在去之前,对于这个领域是毫无所知的。但是,当时有一些志愿者给我提供了一本手册手册,上面提供了一些关于这个学科的基本知识,而且还特别好地指导我如何去使用注册工具来观测,我当时获得了不少实践经验。
Well, the reason why I’m keen on astronomy is that I find looking at those exotic things in the sky is quite exciting. You know, for ages, I have been interested in the beautiful and mysterious stars and planets. Being able to understand them professionally rather than in entertaining ways such as what appears in the cartoons, is quite an eye-opener.
我喜欢天文学的原因就是我觉得观测这些天空上的陌生物体很让人兴奋。多少年来,这些星星对我来说对我来说都是神秘又好看。通过专业的角度而非诸如卡通的形式去了解他的确很开眼界。
雅思口语part2话题卡:Describe an application (program) you usually use on your phone 常用的手机应用
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

题目
Describe an application (program) you usually use on your phone
You should say:
What it is
When you started to use it
Why you use it often
And how you feel about it
参考答案
下面给小编根据具体的题目要求,给出的参考答案:
The application that I usually use on my phone is a dictionary published by Microsoft, called Bing. It is a very powerful tool, integrating various functions like voice recognition, translation, and AI English courses for different levels of students.
我手机上经常使用的应用是微软发布的一款字典,叫做Bing。它是个非常强力的工具,集合了诸如语音识别,翻译和针对不同水平学生的AI英语课等功能。
I downloaded it about three months ago, when I started preparing the IELTS exam. There were so many new words in reading passages, and quite often, I could not find the appropriate words and phrases to express my thought. So I desperately needed a good dictionary to help me.
我大约三个月前下载地它,当时我刚开始复习雅思。阅读文段里有太多的生词,而且我经常找不到合适的单词和短语来表达我的想法。所以我迫切需要一本好的字典来帮忙。
Before I found Bing, I had tried many other electronic dictionaries published by Chinese companies and some are even more functional than it. But all of them share one feature that I could not put up with, a lot of ads. They were literally everywhere. When I opened the app, I was forced to watch a piece of ad lasting for about 5 seconds. That was OK. I understood these companies needed profits to survive. But they really crossed the line for deliberately mixing ads with useful contents and not labelling them. Every tap was a surprise. You never knew what would pop up. So I kept digging and finally found Bing, an ad-free application, which perfectly satisfies my needs.
在我发现Bing之前,我已经尝试了许多中国公司制作的电子字典。一些甚至比Bing功能更为强大。但他们都有一个我无法忍受的特点,广告太多。它们真的无处不在。当我打开应用时,我必须观看一段5秒的广告。这还好,我理解这些公司需要利润来生存。但他们有意混淆广告和有用的内容,并且不标明就太过分了。每一次点击都是惊喜,你永远不知道会弹出什么来。所以我继续寻找,直到找到了Bing,一款没有广告的应用,完美满足我的需求。
I really love it. The new word list enables me to add vocabulary I do not know and constantly review them, and the AI courses help me learn useful expressions and correct my pronunciation. Without it, my journey of IELTS preparation would be much tougher.
我非常喜欢它。生词本让我可以添加不认识的词汇并时时复习。而AI课程则帮助我学习有用的表达,并更正我的发音。没有它的话,我的雅思备考之旅会艰难的多。
雅思口语part2话题卡:Describe an ambition that you have had for a long time 描述一个你拥有很久的壮志雄心/抱负/长久的追求
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
这道题目的重点在于你所拥有的这个ambition一定得是怀揣多年的追求。至于多久算long time,题目并没有明说。因此,大家选择一个自己认为比较长的追求即可。例如,三年准备高考,四年大学准备出国或者找工作等等情况都算。建议大家拿到这道P2题卡之后可以多给自己一点时间仔细思考一下自己当下最想要实现的长期目标究竟是什么,然后再整理一下自己的思路并口头表达出来。最后,再参考给出的范文进行学习。
题目
Describe an ambition that you have had for a long time
You should say
What it is
What you did for it
When you can achieve it
And explain why you have this ambition
参考答案
下面是小编根据具体的题目要求,给出的参考答案:
It’s a bit embarrassing to say. But, I have to admit that going abroad to further my study is an ambition that I’ve had for years.
说起来有点尴尬,不过我不得不承认,出国读书是我很多年来的一个追求。
My goal has always been getting matriculated by one of the top 100 universities abroad and being able to concentrate on Physics, which is my favorite.
我的目标就是被国外的世界前一百院校之一录取,然后能够攻读我喜欢的物理学。
Well, there’re actually many things to prepare such as polishing my resume by gaining some working and academic research experience, improving my GPA, and getting a decent score on a language proficiency test. Honestly, I have done all of them except for the language test, which I hope I could nail it soon.
有很多方面都要做准备,例如通过增加工作和科研经历来打磨简历,提升我的GPA以及拿到一个不错的语言水平考试的成绩。坦白讲,我除了语言考试其它都完成了,我希望语言考试能够尽快搞定。
I’m not quite sure when I can make it as it depends on a wide range of factors such as the time they give me an offer as well as visa processing and so forth. Oh, and the regulations concerning the pandemic, which is also a headache.
我不是特别确信我什么时候能够完成这个追求,因为它取决于各种因素,例如他们发录取通知书的时间以及签证处理等情况。哦对了,还有关于疫情的相关管制,这也是一个头疼的事情。
Well, the main reason why I have this ambition is that I get motivated by others. You know, since I was in high school, I’ve heard of many pieces of exciting news that my fellow students were admitted by the top universities from the U.K or other places. You know, being able to earn a degree in another country would definitely be helpful for my future career. So, I want to give it a try.
我拥有这个追求的主要原因是受到他人激励。自从我上了高中,就经常听到很多令人振奋的消息-不少学长学姐们拿到了英国以及其它地方世界顶 级大学的录取通知书。能够在国外拿到一份文凭绝 对会对我未来的职业生涯有帮助。所以,我想试一试。
