雅思口语part2话题卡：Describe an important plant in your country 你国家中重要的植物

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编写答案

这道题目的思路扩展会稍微难一些。我们可以从两方面入手，首先明白plant一词的含义，它不仅仅可以指树一类的植物，水果、蔬菜和花都算。其次，我们可以在这种植物和自己联系上多下些功夫，例如我第1次见到这种植物是在某地，当时去那里干吗，看到之后感觉如何等。这样子一来就可以避免几句话描述完植物之后无话可说的情况。

题目

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 plant I am going to tell you is bamboo. It is an evergreen perennial flowering plant and has many sub-species. In the south, it can grow to more than 10 meters and as thick as a small tree. In the north, it is often very slim and its height rarely exceeds three meters.

我要说的重要的植物时竹子。它是一种四季常青的开花植物，并且拥有许多亚钟。在南方，它可以长到十几米高，像小树那样粗。在北方，它通常都很细，高度不会超过三米。

My grandma used to plant some bamboos in her garden and that is where I first saw them. Do not copy or repost it. They had played an important part in my childhood. I cut off their stems to make bows and arrows, imagining I was an archer shooting enemies in the battleground. I also took off some branches and pretended that I was a swordsman.

我奶奶曾经在她的花园里种过一些竹子。那也是我第1次见到他们的地方。他们在我童年里扮演了很重要的角色。我砍掉他们的枝干做成弓箭，想象自己是在战场奋勇杀敌的弓箭手。我也曾折断他们的枝杈，装作自己是个剑客。

As I grow up, I gradually realize its importance in China, which does not come from its rarity, but from what it symbolizes in Chinese culture. It is regarded as a behavior model of the gentleman. As bamboo has features such as uprightness, tenacity, and hollow heart, people endow bamboo with integrity, elegance, and plainness, though it is not physically strong. Countless poems praising bamboo written by ancient Chinese poets are actually metaphorically about people who exhibited these characteristics.

当我长大的时候，我逐渐意识到它在中国的重要性。这来自于它在中国文化中象征的东西，而不是稀有度。它被当成是君子的行为模范。由于竹子有诸如挺拔、坚韧和中空的特点，人们赋予它正直、高雅和谦虚的品质，虽然它本身并不强壮。中国古代诗人写了无数赞扬竹子的诗歌，借以歌颂那些展现了这些品质的人们。
