雅思口语part2话题卡：Describe something you bought that was difficult to use at first 购买难用的东西/描述一个购买的一开始很难使用的东西/买来难用的东西

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

这道题目有两个回答要点。第1，我们需要解释难用的原因。既可以是因为自己缺乏这方面的知识，也可以是以为自己不熟悉新的操作方式，还可以是自己没有仔细阅读说明书。小编建议大家可以从这三个角度思考，思路就会开阔很多。几乎所有的东西都能被归入到难用的行列，可以是吹风机、空调、厨房用具等等。第二，题目中强调的是一开始，隐含着现在情况所有改变，所以大家最好能说一下后面发生了什么变化。

参考答案

下面小编根据具体的题目要求，给出参考答案：

The item I am going to tell you is MacBook air, which is a laptop developed and manufactured by the Apple company. Just like other laptops, it consists of a full-sized keyboard, a screen, and a touch area. But what makes this item stand out is its aluminum case and the thin light structure. In fact, it is said to be the thinnest laptop around the world, being at only 14 mm.

我要告诉你的物品是MacBook air，有苹果公司开发和生产的笔记本。跟其他笔记本一样，它包括一个全尺寸的键盘，一个屏幕，以及触控区域。但真正使它突出的特点在于全铝制外壳和轻薄的结构。事实上，它被称为世界上最薄的笔记本，仅有14毫米。

I first saw it at my friend’s home and was attracted by its appearance at once. When I returned, I started to search where I could buy it. Unfortunately, even the nearest Apple Store was 15 kilometers away, which would take me more than one hour to get there. After a lot of consultation, I decided to buy it from an authorized shop in Jingdong, an online shopping website, famous for its delivery speed.

我第1次见到它是在朋友家，当时立刻就被它的外表所吸引。回去时候，我开始搜索哪里可以买到。不幸的是，即使最近的苹果专卖店也有15公里远，要花一个多小时才能到。在咨询了许多人之后，我决定从京东的授权店上购买。京东是个购物网站，因送货速度而出名。

I have to admit that this laptop nearly drove me crazy at first. Its operating system is totally different from the Windows that I had been using for years. I did not even know how to copy and paste documents, and how to close the running programs. Luckily the ways they open files are the same so I could at least edit something and browse the internet.

我不得不承认，一开始这个笔记本快把我逼疯了。它的操作系统跟我用了好多年的windows完全不同。我甚至不知道如何复制粘贴文件，如何关闭正在运行的程序。幸运的是，他们打开文件的方式是一样的，所以我至少可以编辑点东西，浏览下网页。

To overcome these obstacles and save myself from this embarrassing situation, I found many primary introduction videos online and started to watch and learn. Now, I should say I can proficiently use this laptop and I am often amazed by how smooth the system operates and how little time it takes to open a file or start a program.

为了克服这些困难，将我从这一尴尬的情况中拯救出来，我在网上找了好多基础介绍视频，开始观看和学习。现在，我能够十分熟练的使用它。经常被其系统运行的顺畅性和打开文件所需要的时间所震惊。
