雅思口语part2话题卡：Describe a time when you give advice to others 描述给别人建议的一次经历

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

这道题目小编在撰写答案的时候就想着可能会难倒一部分雅思考生们。因为我们从小到大更多的时候是在接受教育，很少给别人真正意义上的建议。即便是给出了像样的建议，可能在表达上也无法把事情说清楚。小编建议大家不必讲述特别宏观的经历，而是把经历细小化、生活化。比如女生可以给父母或者朋友建议穿着打扮乃至美妆之类的，男生可以在体育运动、电子竞技上面给别人一些战术上的建议，这些都可以算作advice。

题目

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：

A time that I gave advice to others was helping my younger sister, Wang Jie, to choose her major in college.

一次我给别人建议的经历是帮助我的妹妹Wang Jie选择大学专业。

Wang was the daughter of my mother’s colleague and was an up-and-coming third-year senior high school student. I remember that was a day right after the Spring Festival in 2014. We were visiting our relatives and friends as usual and met with each other in a social event.

Wang是我妈妈同事的女儿，她是一位非常积极向上的高三学生。我记得是在2014年的那个春节之后的一天。我们当时和往常一样在走亲访友，然后在一个聚会上见面了。

I didn’t mean to give advice to her, but it was her mother who was chatting with my mother about her daughter’s difficulties in preparing the Gaokao, which is the college entrance exam in China. Wang felt quite unsure about her future concentration in college. It was not difficult for her to get into a top 10 university in China, but the thing was that she just had no clue regarding choosing a promising major. She told me that the public administration was considered to be a top priority in her parents’ eyes as they wanted her to become a public servant. She actually had neither an interest in it nor in others, which made things even harder.

我当时本意是不想给他建议的，但是她妈妈当时和我妈妈在聊着她女儿备战中国高考的困难。Wang觉得对未来大学学习方向十分不确定。对她来说考入中国前10的大学不是什么难题，但是问题是针对选择一个有前途的专业而言她毫无头绪。她告诉我她父母的意思是想让她选读公共管理专业因为日后想让她当公务员。其实她自己对此并没有兴趣也对其它方面无感，这就让事情变得更加难了。

Well, I was actually not an authority in terms of choosing a major even though I was then a junior majoring in Human Resources. But, I did have some insightful understanding of this struggle. You know, no matter what advice you take, you are the only person that is truly responsible for the decision you make. So, I offered her an advice, which was quite simple, ‘find your interest and go for it’. Also, I gave her detailed guidance on how to detect the inner propensity for the things we truly wanted, which I think would be of great value for her. After listening to my words, she felt she was kind of enlightened.

我当时就选择专业来说确实不是什么权威，即便我当时已经是人力资源专业的大三学生。但是呢，对于纠结这个事情上而言我还是有很深的体会的。不管你接纳了什么建议，你是自己才是唯1你个为你自己负责的人。所以，我给她的建议很简单，‘找到自己的兴趣然后做下去’。另外，我给了她一些寻找内心兴趣的细节指导，我觉得这对她来说十分重要。听了我的一番话，她感觉有点明白了。

Well, I wouldn’t say my advice was very great, but it’s at least useful in the long run. You know, sometimes parents want us to be successful but would help us in the wrong way by giving us a suggestion that doesn’t suit our need. Soon or later we will have realized that the decision was once made inappropriately. So, instead of letting others choose, we’d better know what we want.

我不能说我的决定非常棒，但是起码长远来看是有用的。有些时候父母们想让我们成功但是给了一些不适合我们需求的建议来帮助我们。迟早会发现这个决定做得不是特别合适。所以，与其说让别人来做决定，还不如让我们自己知道自己想要什么。
