雅思口语购物话题

在雅思口语中,很多时候需要积累一定的高分模板。因为能够让考生亲身体会英语说话的逻辑,还能增强我们遣词造句的能力。

1. Why does shopping make people happy?

误区:

这个问题其实比较简单,但仍然有一些同学可能会反而把这个问题想得很复杂,我们其实并不需要从一个非常专业的心理学角度psychological angle来准确回答,只需要做到“言之有理,言之有物,紧扣主题,自圆其说”就可以了。

思路:

一说起购物,我们可能就会联想到几个女士领着五颜六色的包包在很大的商场里面买东西。没错,就抓住你的这个第一印象我们就可以展开。

买东西,尤其是女性购买衣服,都是为了自己的形象image能够拿得出手look good,这样才会提升自己的魅力charm或者charisma,还有自信心confidence等等。其实不光是女士,男士在买车买房上也是比较务实的practical或者唯物的materialistic,因为社会上大家都在这么做,你如果不这么购置物品和别人保持基本的一致的话,在某种意义上来说,你还不够成功。

但是通过购买,你就可以获得成就感a sense of achievement等。我们还可以列举更多这样的例子,主语可以换成学生students,老年人the elderly,或者再确切点家庭主妇housewives,商业大亨business tycoon,都可以通过他们购买的特定东西来说明让他们快乐的原因。

Well, you know it's always a pleasant feeling to wear brand new clothes that look good. It can make your image better and improve your charisma, and people are more self-confident when they are pleased with their appearance. I think it’s understandable that ladies always try to buy new clothes. Furthermore, people are all becoming more and more materialistic: we all care about occupying good stuff like cars or big houses and even the latest version of iPhone, especially when other people have. If we can afford something fancy with our own salary, we will experience a sense of achievement.

语料补充:

几种在句中常见的表示递进的关联词,来替换and的单一性:furthermore, moreover, still, in addition, additionally, more specifically, besides, in other words, on the other hand, meanwhile, at the same time…

2. How do shops nowadays compare to shops in the past?

误区:

很多同学还是比较擅长描述现在的购物都是怎么样的。被我们聊得最多的也就是网上购物在逐渐代替实体店购物这件事。但是我们同时应该注意到,题目中出现了compare这个单词,就是要求我们说明两件事情,并作出一个比较明显的比较。而就不是单单说一方面了。并且是shop的为主语,其实更多的是想问实体店physical shops的今昔对比。

思路:

我们可以用一个最简单的方法来回答这个问题。就是先说过去是什么样子的,然后说现在已经变了,变成了什么样子。但是我们并不是特别了解很多年前购物是什么样子的。其实我们并不需要说的有多精确,只需要描述一下基本场景就可以了。比如,我们要去不同的商店买东西,一次跑好几个地方,举几个例子,说清楚就可以了。关键还是我们熟悉的现在怎么说方便了。当然你可以用网购来描述,但是更直观的对比是超市和购物广场这一个概念,我们可以在一个地方买到许许多多不同种类的东西,变得非常快捷。物品的数量也在增多,人们的选择也就更多了。

I suppose that a few decades ago, people had to go to different places to buy daily items they needed: hammer in a hardware store, pork at the butcher’s or clothes in a tailor’s shop. But I believe that the shop owners were also more welcoming and considerate. Nowadays, a superstore like Walmart or Carrefour provides every single necessity and these are extremely convenient for people’s living. And for sure, shopping malls are available wherever you go. I bet now there are a lot more shops than in the past. As a consequence, customers have way more options than they did 30 years ago.

雅思口语一次胜利话题

Describe a success in your life.

You should say:

when it was

what it was

why you chose it

how you achieved.

I guess success can vary depending on your viewpoint. Some people judge success by how much money they have, the clothes they wear or the car they drive. In that respect I maybe haven’t had a lot of success so far in my life, but I have still achieved things that I am proud of.

One such thing I can remember happened when I was an undergraduate at university, I think during my second year. We were encouraged to get involved in after-school activities and events, so I volunteered to help organise a dubbing contest that was taking place. You have probably come across dubbing if you’ve watched a foreign film and the native language has been replaced with another one over the top. The students that took part had divided themselves into groups of three or four people. They would take it in turns to go up on stage and play an English movie without the sound turned on, while they spoke the words over the top of the video.

I mainly chose to volunteer so that I could earn extra credits, or points, to go towards my degree. But it was also a good opportunity to meet some new people and it gave me something to do in my spare time.

In the end everything went off without a hitch and the night was a big success. We had rehearsed everything again and again and all the hard work paid off. I think the key to the success was everyone’s effort and teamwork, it wasn’t just a personal success, but one that I shared with a whole group of people.

雅思口语佩服的朋友话题

A friend you admire

I want to talk about one of my playmates in my childhood. Her name is Su. She’s very beautiful. She had long black hair and big eyes. She looked like a Barbie doll.

However her personality was very different from her appearance. I like her because of her strong personality and her kindness to others. She never cried even when she hurt her knees badly and would always help and comfort others just like a big sister.

I always knew she’s a strong girl, but later I realized that she’s stronger than I thought. When we were in primary school, one day, my teacher asked her out and told her that her father died in a car accident. She came back to our classroom to get her school bag without crying. When I went to her home to ensure she was ok, I saw her comforting her mother. She was like an adult, still without crying.

Later she went to Canada and we haven’t seen each other for about five years. I can still her beautiful appearance and her strong personality. When I feel discouraged, I will always remember her and I can become strong because of her influence.

雅思口语想学习的技能话题

You should say:

what it is

when you first became interested in it

how you will learn about it

and explain why you want to learn more about it.

One of my biggest passions in life is food. I would say I’m not generally a fussy eater and I’m willing to try pretty much anything. I like food from all over the world, whether it’s spicy curries from India or delicious pasta dishes from Italy.

Unfortunately, while I’m very good at eating food, I’m not so great at cooking it! I can cook basic food, but my culinary skills are certainly nothing to write home about. I used to watch my mum cook at home, but not a lot of her talent rubbed off on me. Nevertheless, it sparked my interest in cooking and food in general.

I guess I could learn how be a better cook by reading a recipe book or watching cookery programmes on TV, but to be honest I think I’d be better off going to lessons. Once I’ve picked up the basics I can always try using a book at home, but to start I think I should have a teacher telling me what to do.

One thing I love to be able to do is cook an Indian curry from scratch. The best curries are always cooked without using a jar of sauce, but it requires a lot of different spices and you need to know how to use them.

I think it would be great to be a better cook as cooking can be very therapeutic and relaxing. Besides, everyone loves a good cook and it’s helpful to impress members of the opposite sex!
