雅思口語part1話題:history
雅思口語中說到歷史,我們并不陌生,因為幾乎每個人從小就學(xué)習(xí)歷史。According to Wikipedia, History is the study of the past, particularly how it relates to humans. 也就是說,歷史是對過去的研究,尤其是和人相關(guān)的研究。
歷史在人類社會的發(fā)展過程中,起到至關(guān)重要的作用。它告訴我們我們是誰,我們來自哪;它讓我們穿越時間和空間去思考過去發(fā)生了什么,我們從中能學(xué)到什么;它使我們更好的了解這個世界。The history plays a vital role in the development of society. It gives us an insight into who we are and where we come from; it helps us stretch our perspective across time and space to think about what happened in the past and what we can learn from the past; it provides us with a chance to understand the world.
1. Do you like to learn about history?
這是一道喜歡或者不喜歡類的題目,首先我們來學(xué)習(xí)一下表達‘喜歡’的語言,題目中的like可以替換成be interested in; be into; be fond of; 或者用I find something interesting.不喜歡除了用dislike以外,還可以替換成hate; loathe; be fed up with; be sick of.
關(guān)于這道題,通常情況下,我們會回答喜歡,或者不喜歡。注意,答案盡量以Yes, I do.的形式出現(xiàn),而不是單獨的yes。同時也可以替換成Yes, very much so; Yes, definitely; Yes, absolutely等表達。同樣,否定的答案,可以用Not really; Not exactly; 或者是,No, it’s not my kind of thing來代替。
若該題目的答案是喜歡,那么我們需要在表明傾向后加以解釋,通常是給出原因或例子。除了以上所講到的歷史的作用外,喜歡了解歷史的原因還可以是:The historical events are very interesting(歷史事件非常有趣);It can make us wise(使人明智)等。
若回答不喜歡,則也須講明原因,或者講明不喜歡的地方在哪。這里推薦給考生一個加分的表達:to have a love-hate relationship with something,意思是說對某物或是某件事情既愛又恨。回想我們不喜歡歷史的原因,可能更多的是因為我們不喜歡以背誦為主的歷史考試,而非我們對歷史事件真的不感興趣。(I’m more interested in historical stories rather than in details of names, dates and places.)
范例1: Yes, very much so. I’d say history is my real love. You know, it’s easy for me to get lost while reading historical books or watching some documentaries. I find history very interesting, mainly because it helps me stretch my perspective across time and space to think about what happened in the past and how our ancestors experienced things.
范例2: Well, to be honest, I have a love-hate relationship with history, generally because I’m much into the stories and the insights it gives me into the past, but I’m really struggling in the history exams which are usually centered around dates, names and places.
2. Do you think history is important?
關(guān)于這道題目,相信我們大多數(shù)考生都會給出肯定的回答:歷史是重要的。其原因可以是以下幾點:
It allows people to understand how culture, politics, economy, society and values developed. (它使得人們了解文化,政治,經(jīng)濟,社會以及價值是如何發(fā)展的)
History not only deals with the past but also with how the past led to the present. (歷史不僅是關(guān)于過去,還關(guān)于過去如何導(dǎo)致了現(xiàn)在)
It tells us what happened in the past, so that we avoid repeating mistakes. (他告訴我們過去發(fā)生了什么,以幫助我們避免重復(fù)錯誤)
范例:Yes, I think so. History not only deals with the past, but also with how the past led to the present. So it allows people to understand how culture, politics, society and values developed. More importantly, since it tells us what happened in the past, we could avoid repeating mistakes.
3. Do you think you can learn history from films or TV programs?
了解歷史的方式有很多,比如看電影,讀書,看紀(jì)錄片,參觀歷史景點,上歷史課等。(There are many ways to learn about history, such as watching films, reading books, watching documentaries, visiting historical sites, and attending history classes. )。至于哪一種才是了解歷史最好的方式(the best way to learn history),每個人心中的答案各不相同。
這道題目是問,我們是否可以通過看電影或者電視節(jié)目這種方式來了解歷史。目前,我們的電影類型有很多,比如comedy(喜劇),action movies(動作片),science fiction films(科幻片),martial arts films(功夫片),romance films(愛情片),war movies(戰(zhàn)爭片)等等,至于電視節(jié)目,種類更是繁多,常見的有reality shows(真人秀),talent search(選人才節(jié)目),talk shows(談話類節(jié)目),variety shows(文藝晚會),sitcoms(情景喜劇)等等。這些影片或者電視節(jié)目多多少少的涉及了一些歷史,然而它們的主要目的還是以娛樂和教育為主(entertaining and educational),以講述歷史為目的還要屬documentaries(紀(jì)錄片)。
回到題目,這是一道是非疑問類的題目,我們的答案可以是肯定的,否定的或者不一定的。然而通過上面的分析,這道題目回答No或It depends可能更容易一些。原因可能是有些電影或是電視節(jié)目會根據(jù)劇情需要對歷史進行改編(Some historical events might be rewritten by editors to satisfy the plot),每部電影或者電視節(jié)目會站在各自不同的角度看待歷史,我們?nèi)菀资茈娪盎蚬?jié)目中人物和劇情的影響(They may show the history from different perspectives, so that we are easy to be influenced by the characters and plots.),因此我們并不總是能夠從電影和電視節(jié)目中了解到歷史,然而記錄片除外,因為其涉及的內(nèi)容主要是歷史或科學(xué)(Documentaries mainly deal with history or science)。因此,從紀(jì)錄片中,我們比較容易了解真正的歷史。
范例:It depends. It depends on what the movie or program is. I mean, we usually watch some movies and TV programs in which some historical events are rewritten to satisfy the plots. In this case, I don’t think we can learn the real history. However, we may learn some from documentaries, which are particularly deal with historical issues or science.
4. Do you think the Internet is a good place to learn about history?
同樣,這也是一道是非疑問類的題目,無論我們的答案是肯定的還是否定的,都需要有充分的支持。例如,這道題目你可以回答‘是’(Yes, I think so; Yes I guess so; Yes sort of),然后在給出理由,可以是網(wǎng)絡(luò)資源充分,且免費,查閱方便等等(give a convenient access to information on almost everything)。所以你經(jīng)常到什么樣的網(wǎng)站上去瀏覽什么樣的歷史知識。
除此之外,你還可以給出否定的答案(No, I don’t think so; No, I don’t think it’s necessarily the case.),然后給出原因,可能是因為網(wǎng)絡(luò)信息并不總是可靠或者客觀(not always reliable or objective),也可能是因為網(wǎng)絡(luò)當(dāng)中充斥著大量的誤導(dǎo)或虛假或歪曲的信息(be awash with some misleading or false or distorted information),還有可能是因為網(wǎng)絡(luò)上信息量過于龐大導(dǎo)致很難找到真正有用可靠的信息(With so much information in the website, people may find it difficult to search for the useful and reliable information which they really need)。因此我們應(yīng)當(dāng)慎重使用網(wǎng)絡(luò)信息(be careful in using the information on the internet)
范例1:Yes, I guess so. It’s mainly because the Internet gives us a convenient access to information on almost everything we need. So I usually go to some news and education websites to read some information about history or other things.
范例2: Well, I don’t think it’s necessarily the case, mainly because the stuff on the Internet is not always reliable or objective. You know, everyone can publish their own ideas on the websites so the Internet might be awash with a huge amount of misleading, false or distorted things. In addition, with so much information in the website, people may find it difficult to search for the useful and reliable information which they really need. So yeah, that’s basically why I suppose not.
雅思口語話題:大公司/機構(gòu)
Describe a big company/organisation
? What it is
? How you knew about it
? What this company does
? How you feel about it
之前part2小公司的話題已經(jīng)搞得大家唉聲嘆氣,叫苦連天,現(xiàn)在又出了個大公司。但是其實大公司是不是更好講一些呢?我們其實只要找一個比較好講的公司或者與自己生活息息相關(guān)的公司來講,比如可口可樂,或者更好講的XDF(此處請給掌聲),只需稍微描述一下公司是干嘛的,你如何知道這個公司以及對于這個公司的看法,就是一篇完整的大公司的素材啦!那我們就來看看要如何形容XDF吧!
Well, I wanna talk about The New Oriental School, which is one of the biggest private educationalcompanies in China. I’ve been learning English there for 7 years, and my mom took me thereas she said that it is the best place to learn English in our city.Thiscompany provides extra lessons for almost every subject, you know, in China,every kid has totakeextra lessons, to make sure they do good in major exams.

Major exams 重要的考試
Teaching quality 教學(xué)質(zhì)量
Further sb’s study 進修
Dress up 打扮
Working condition 工作條件/環(huán)境
大家如果想拿到更高的分數(shù)的話呢,請看這篇我們同樣講的是XDF。

雅思口語:新題解析“重要的植物”
An important plant in your country that you like
what it is
how you knew about it
why it is important
explain why you like it
最新出爐的5-8月雅思口語新題中出現(xiàn)了一道讓考生們很頭疼的植物題。植物除了從外觀習(xí)性方面描述之外,還可以從其實際用途或文化價值的角度去描述,可以使大家不至于無話可說。以下是兩個版本的范文:
Sample Answer (Band 6)
The one I’ve chosen to talk about is bamboo, which is diffusely planted inthe southern part of China and also commonly seen in other subtropical areas(亞熱帶).
The first time I knew about this plant, as far as I can remember, was when I was 6 years old. My parents took me to a panda natural reserve (自然保護區(qū)) in Sichuan where I saw a picturesque (風(fēng)景如畫的) bamboo forest. You know, pandas mostly feed on bamboo,and that’s how I knew about this plant.
As for why it’s an important plant, well, I once read it somewhere that it could be used to make medicine to cure diseases like coughing, fever and even insomnia, which makes it very valuable. Also, it has become a new material to make a wide range of things, including fabrics and paper, which is more environmentally friendly(環(huán)保的) and can remove unpleasant smells (除臭).
But the main reason why I like bamboo is that in traditional Chinese culture, bamboo is a symbol of (是什么的象征) some great virtues like persistence and perseverance(堅持不懈), integrity and honesty (正直誠實), which I consider as the greatest qualities of a person.
Sample Answer (Band 7)
The one I’ve chosen to talk about is called mimosa (含羞草), also known as sleepy plant, which is diffusely plantedin (廣泛種植于) the southern part of China and also commonly seen inother tropical areas.
The first time I knew about this plant, as far as I can remember, was when I was 6 years old. You know, my grandmother is an expert at (是某方面的專家) gardening, and she had all kinds of potted plants(盆栽) on her balcony. One day, I accidentally touched the leaflets of a potted mimosa. Then what happened next shocked me: the leaflets closed! I had never seen anything like it before and I was totally blown away (感到震驚)! Then my grandma explained to me that whenever stimulated in some ways, such as touching, warming, blowing or shaking, the foliage would fold inwards as a response. Because of this, it could serve as a tool to predict weather(預(yù)測天氣). And that’s one of the reasons why I like this plant.
As for why it’s an important plant, well, I once read it somewhere that some of the chemicals in mimosa could be used to make medicine to cure diseases like coughing, fever and could even prevent insomnia, which makes it very valuable.
