音乐话题的雅思口语

歌曲是学生相当熟悉的话题。越来越接地气的雅思考试自然不会放过这点，雅思口语part 2中考到喜爱歌曲的几率也是不小。下面是音乐话题的雅思口语，一起来了解下吧：

音乐话题的雅思口语

Describe a song you can remember well

you should say:

what the song is about;

when and where you first heard this song;

how you felt about it;

and explain why you can remember it well.

原因其实有多个：一，歌曲很多是词作者的个人感悟而非故事情节，较为抽象，以学生的语言能力较难将其高效地归纳总结。二，流行歌曲同质化严重，太多与年轻人的感情生活有关。用英文谈情说爱这事恐怕学生连想都没想过。用英文来表达对感情生活的感悟?那肯定也好不到哪里去。

三，既是歌曲，除词外自然还是曲可一讲。可是melody又是过于抽象，中文尚且可以“大珠小珠落玉盘”式的胡诌一通，用英文怎么办?描述起来也费力气啦，不是专业学器乐声乐的估计也说不了太多。于是乎一个如此常见的话题全因这样那样的原因成了个烫手山芋。

范文：

The only song which lingers on in my mind when you ask me to describe one, is actually the one of the greatest hits from the famous Chinese band ‘Shin’: HaiKuoTianKong. You know I can even write down each word of its lyrics and easily hum the melody. Wanna hear a piece of it? Maybe after this exam is done... Just kidding. The moment I go to karaoke, this will be the song I always have a chance to sing then.

When did I first hear about this song? I think I first heard it when I was watching TV and there was a new TV series showing on. The ending song suddenly caught my attention as it was so vivid and impressive. Then I did everything I could to search all the information about this song and thanks to Chinese online search giant Baidu, I learned its name as “HaiKuoTianKong”, meaning “sky is the limit” in Chinese.

Apart from the inspiring tunes, the Lyrics, to be honest, just showed me new horizon of making pop songs. It contains several notes delivering ideas like ‘don’t give up or flee from your fate’; ‘fight it bravely’; “Tomorrow will be a better future’; or ‘However challenging your life is, you should be resilient’. I believe it actually tells us the true spirit of what we should do in our lives, and frankly speaking I have been motivated by the song, determined to pursue everything that I desire in future!

雅思口语part2之歌曲类话题

Q:

What kinds of music do you like to listen to?

A:

My favourite type of music must be rock and roll.

第1句直接回答问题，给出观点：我最喜欢的是摇滚。

The music appears to be loud and wild, conveying an uninhibited signal that people should take charge in their own life and nobody is able to judge.

第2句可以给出原因：摇滚听起来很吵，很狂野。它好像传递着一种不羁的信号：所有人应该有自己的生活，由不得旁人来指指点点。

convey传递

uninhibited不羁的

More than this, I think that rock singers are usually sentimental and have their own stories to tell.By listening to their songs, sometimes I feel touched with my tears failing to stop running down.

第3句可以往下深化，说自己的感受：而且我觉得摇滚歌手他们都是情感丰富的人，他们都有他们的故事想要讲。听他们的歌，我有时候会很感动，还忍不住掉下泪来。

sentimental情感丰富的

总结：

音乐话题是一个比较常考但难度不算很大的话题。 重要的是要把具体的音乐种类用正确的词汇表达出来，比如流行音乐【pop music】、爵士乐【Jazz】、蓝调【Blues】、说唱【rap】等等。对于这些种类的音乐，还要有一些具体的介绍和自己的看法，而不能仅停留于说它们好听，让我很relaxing等之类的空洞的表达。

雅思口语介绍听音乐的地方

Describe a place you know where people go to listen to music 【such as a theatre or a music hall】.

You should say:

where it is

what kind of music is performed there

what type of people go there

why people go there

and explain your impressions of this place

解析：

题目要求描述一个你所知道的人们会去听音乐的地方，如剧院或者音乐厅等。要求描述地点、所演奏的音乐、观众类型和人们去那听音乐的原因，另外要阐述自己对于该地点的印象。

Well, the place I am going to talk about where people go to listen to music is not a theatre or a music hall but a stadium. I think you must be very familiar with the name of the stadium, that is Bird’s Nest which is located in Beijing. I think most people get to know the name because of the Beijing Olympics Games, but actually after the Olympic games, it is used as a multifunctional stadium where concerts or competitions are held. Most of the music performed there is pop music. Jackie Chan was the first artist to hold a pop music concert there. After that, many other pop music stars like Leehom Wang, Wang Feng, the band Mayday all held concerts here. Most of the audiences that go here are young people or middle-aged people. They are loyal fans of these pop stars. Many people even come all the way from other places to attend the concert.

Talking about the reasons why people go there, well, it is really a precious opportunity to see these pop stars. Especially to many people, those stars’ songs accompany them through many hard days, so there are emotional reasons behind it. I have also attended a concert of Wang Feng in the Bird’s Nest. I think this is a beautiful place. Its appearance really assembles a bird’s nest, hence the name. The structure is complicated and delicate.

雅思口语描述一首特别歌曲

Describe a song that has 【special】 meaning for you

You should say:

What song it is.

When you first heard it.

What the song is about.

And explain why this song has special meaning for you.

考试时，大家都知道我们会有一分钟准备时间，考官还会慷慨地给我们纸笔，但是很少有同学会真正利用好这一分钟做有用的笔记，多数同学只是紧张得看着题目，脑子中不断天马行空，貌似一分钟内想到东西不少，可是真正开始说时有时大脑突然一片空白接着就开始紧张，停顿犹豫等现象。在此，我要特别提醒大家，一分钟准备时间一定要好好运用，做些有用的笔记和提示。而且，据很多最近参加考试的同学反映，现在有些考官会在一分钟结束后将题卡收回，如果是这种情况，做笔记也就更加有必要了。

言归正传，我们还是来看一下这个题目。该题让我们描述一首有特殊意义的歌曲，需要说到这首歌的名字，你什么时候第一次听到，这首歌是关于什么的，以及为什么这首歌会对你有特殊的意义。迅速审题后，我们应该选择其中相对比较容易扩展的题目做更深入思考，而简单一些的提示就可简单扩展了。不难发现，这个题目明显后两问比较容易做更多扩展。

接下来，非常重要的一步就是要选择合适的素材。到底选择什么样的歌曲呢?其实，对于歌曲的题目，我们可以从三种角度入手。第一种，我们可以选择一首公益类歌曲，比如歌王迈克尔杰克逊的代表作之一“Heal the world”，该歌曲倡议人们要停止战争，还给孩子们一个良好的生存环境，这首歌曲的MV更是让人印象深刻，那些在战场上玩耍的孩子们深深地刺痛了每一个善良人们的心。所以选择这样类型的公益歌曲显然能让我们有更多话可讲，发表我们对于这类问题的观点。

第二种，我们可以选择一首在我们的成长历程中确实给我们留下了深刻印象的歌曲，例如ABC歌，这首童谣虽然简单，但却是很多同学接触英文的开始，并且简单易懂得歌词及欢快得旋律让大家至今难忘。还有很多同学，充分结合自己的生活经验，谈到一首疗伤歌曲，结合具体得生活实例，讲到自己刚刚和心爱的女友分手，这首歌伴随自己渡过了那些伤心的日子，有实际例子，有生活体验，有自己的个性，还有些许的幽默，能很好地吸引到考官。

第三种，就是选择一些非常有个性的新潮歌曲了，例如最经火爆全球的鸟叔代表作江南style或者是国内神曲最炫民族风，都属于非常有个性也能让我们有话可说的歌曲。其实，不管是哪一种类型，我们都可以总结成一种方法，就是一定要结合大家的生活经验，选择自己比较了解又能有话可说的歌曲。但在这里，我更建议大家选择一首外文歌曲来介绍，这样就可用于另外一个让很多同学头疼的题目——描述一个自己听到外国歌曲的经历。我们知道，举一反三对于雅思口语题库的准备是一个极其重要的技巧。提醒大家，不要只把眼光集中在英文歌上，日文，韩文，法文，德文都是不错的选择。

在这里我们就拿一首南非世界杯主题曲waka waka来举例，看看具体应该怎样描述一首歌曲。

首先，描述时要注意，除了简单回答事实性问题之外，非常重要的一点就是要扩展细节。那我们来看，第一个问题问歌曲名字，我们除了直接回答名字外，还可以扩展很多细节，例如这是一首什么类型的歌曲，歌手是谁，这首歌在音乐界是什么样的地位等等。所以，根据这些分析，我们可以大致来回答一下第一个问题，如下：

The song I would like to talk about is called WAKA WAKA which came out in 2010. It is sang by Shakira who is a local female singer in South Africa. In fact, During the World Cup period, it was aired non-stop on TV and on the radio. As you may know, it was the theme song of it. When I first heard the song, I’m attracted by the African style. Waka Waka is famous for its energetic and happy melody. Also, the passion showed in the song is a big attraction to people.

这样看来，仅仅是第一个问题就能扩展如此之多的内容，对于很多说不够一分半到两分钟时间的同学来说，这是一个很好的方法。但是注意，尽量不要在第一个题目中就谈到过多的感受等内容，否则到了最后一问是，很多同学就无话可说，也就说不到时间了。
