雅思口语当季话题卡：Describe a place you know where people go to listen to music (such as a theater or a music hall) 描述人们听音乐的地方，例如剧院或者音乐厅
思路点拨：以下思路仅供参考，希望大家根据自己的经历撰写答案
该题目中有两个主要的信息点：place和music，都不算太难。前者题目中已经给出了剧院或者音乐厅的例子。顺理成章的，我们可以想想他们的特点。例如墙壁和地板经过特殊调整，从而使音效更好一些;或者整体建筑的风格。至于music可以扩展的就更多了，我们可以聊聊不同类型的音乐，不同类型的听众，以及为什么人们要出去听音乐，而不是在家。如果各位烤鸭觉得音乐厅什么的离自己的生活太过遥远，其实我们也可以完全抛弃它给的指引，寻找另外的扩展方向。那就是明星的演唱会。这样一来大家可说的应该就很多了。
下面是小编根据题目的具体要求，给出的参考答案：
You should say:
Where it is 它在哪
What kind of music is performed there 那里通常都会表演什么类型的音乐
What type of people to there 什么样的人会去哪里
Why people go there 人们为什么要去那
And explain how you feel about this place 解释你觉得那个地方怎么样
我要说的音乐厅是国家大剧院，它坐落于北京正中心，天安门广场西侧。建筑形状像颗鸡蛋。里面会表演各种各样的歌剧，交响乐，中国传统戏剧等高雅音乐。许多从国外的顶 尖音乐团队都会选择这里作为他们主要的表演场地。
The concert hall I am going to tell you is National Centre for the Performing Arts. It is located at the Center of Beijing, to the west of Tian’anmen Square, with a shape like an egg. You can enjoy a range of elegant music such as dramas, symphonies, and Chinese traditional operas. Many leading musicians from abroad would also choose this place as their major performing stage.
其观众主要是中年人、音乐专业的学生，或者对音乐知识有一定研究的人。一般来说，年轻人较少过去。大多数人过来是因为它有最顶 尖的音响设备。10块巨大的橡胶平板支撑着地板，因此可以吸收来自外界的任何震动，并阻止他们影响观众席。墙壁由好几层蜂蜜色的木头构成。为了提升音质并放大声音，它们被设置成弧形而不是直线。墙上还有幕布，可以通过打开或者关闭他们来影响音质。
The audience here are mainly middle-aged individuals, students majoring in music and people who have a deep understanding of melody. Generally speaking, it is not very popular among youngsters. Most people came here because of its top-quality acoustic settings. The floor is supported by ten massive pads. These are constructed from rubber, and so are able to absorb any vibrations from outside and prevent them from affecting the auditorium. The walls are made of several layers of honey-coloured wood. In order to improve the acoustic properties of the auditorium and to amplify the sound, they are not straight, they are curved. The walls also have curtains which can be opened and closed to change the acoustics.
我觉得这是个欣赏音乐的好地方，除了音质之外，你在这里还可以遇到与自己拥有相同喜好的人，结识新的朋友。我和我女朋友就是在那里认识的。
I believe the National Centre for the Performing Arts is a good place to appreciate music. Besides the excellent acoustic experience, you can also meet people with the same interests and make new friends. My girlfriend and I met there. So I love it.
