雅思口语话题有趣的歌

Describe an interesting song you like.

You should say:

What it is

Which country the song comes from

What story the song tells

And explain why you think it is interesting.

I would like to describe a song called "Hey Jude", which was firstly sung by the English rock band the Beatles. Actually it's a song McCartney wrote to cheer up a 5-year old boy Julian, during his parents' divorce. The song was first released in August 1968 as the first single from one of the Beatles' records. The song reached the top of both British and American charts. Then, it became an uplifting ballad that's inspired the masses for decades.

I was also touched by the song the first time I heard it in my high school. I especially like the lyrics, which carry an encouraging message, like when he sings "make a sad song and make it better". It taught us to be positive and optimistic when things aren't going well. The lyrics and the tune always spark a bit of romance in my heart. I tended to listen to this song when I came across all kinds of frustration and failures in my life. It's really a wake-up call for me and could drag me out of tough situations. Nowadays, I can't help singing along with the song once it plays. It also had been covered by a series of singers worldwide. Interestingly, it was sung by 80,000 people in the stadium during the opening ceremony of the 2012 London Olympic Games. The scene was spectacular, hard to describe in words!

雅思口语Sky话题

1. Do you like to watch the sky?你喜欢仰望天空吗? 对于这样一个yes/no的问题，一个口语答题的常识就是千万不要给出yes/ no，后续的语言支撑才是重点。

喜欢看天空，喜欢什么时候看天空when I got nothing to do or have something stuck in my mind，在天空中你可以看到什么，crystal clear blue，clouds moving in an extremely subtle way，sometimes if I’m lucky，birds fly through in crowds看天空时候你的感觉是怎样的it’s the most peaceful moment then get wandering . 对于雾霾比较严重的地区，还可以跟以前对比一下。内容的丰富度就会大大增加。

Example： Well, to be honest, I used to love looking up at the sky all the time. When I had my mind stuck in somewhere or simply got bored, I would go out to a roof or somewhere I can quietly enjoy the crystal clear blue sky, with the clouds moving subtlety, sometimes if I’m lucky, I can also see birds flying through in crowds. It was the most peaceful moment and perfect for wandering with the breezes. But now with the fog and haze, there’s no way I can do that again.

2.Do you prefer the sky during the day or at night?这是一道典型的对比类题目，这类的题目同学们首先还是要灵活熟练运用可以表述比较的语言： 比较级的用法more / less than , as ... as ,prefer的名词性转变preference等。

其实本题的答题方向比较没有所谓，无论选择更喜欢白天或者黑夜，或者居中都可以。但切记不要选择其一而不表述另一方面。难点是找出可以对比描述的方向，比如白天因为有太阳更加明亮而且温暖so much brighter and warmer because of the sun，晚上有星星，更加静谧tranquil。接下来的sample answer中并没有给出一个明确的选择。

Actually, I don’t have any particular preference over this since they both got unique features. In the daytime, it’s so much brighter and warmer because of the sun, so it is more comfortable to have the sunbath while watching the sky. But it is not as tranquil or fascinating as it is in the evening with all those shinning stars blinking towards me.

3.Have you learnt any courses about stars or planets?这是一道个人经历的题目，很多学生会陷入自己真实情况的困境，自己并无这方面太多的知识。其实雅思官方指导视频里面也明确的有说，编答案也是无可厚非的，毕竟考察项是同学们的英语表达水平，而并非是大家的知识量。当然如果同学们本身对星球星体这方面了解甚多，那就赶紧发挥你的脑容量小宇宙吧。

大家中学时期都是学过地理的，geography ，只不过地理上的只是简单的introduction，入门水平;此处可以和大家的实际情况相结合，如果是大学生或者高中的理科生，可以说很多都不记得了;但是大家平时还是会看一下这方面的新闻，最常见的就是流星雨。还有女生们比较了解的星座方面，往这个方向说会熟悉很多。

I kind of have. I memorized a range of introductions in my geography class. Unfortunately, I don’t think I can recall any of those detailed information any more. But I do read or hear some news mainly about the where to get the best views of the "shooting stars" or things like this quite often. And almost every girl I know never stops gossiping about constellation, such as who is a typical Virgo or how can one get along well with a narcissistic Sagittarius. This is pretty much all I know about the stars. 4.Where is a good place to watch stars?这是一个信息罗列题目，罗列的是可以看星星的地点。

此类题目很多学生容易上来就给一大堆地点，但却忽略了将内容做一个分类，因此丧失了语言长度和难度上的加分。 而且既然是a good place，未必非要给出一个特定的地址，可以给一个分类，给出具体的描述。 地点可以分为市区的地点urban areas和郊区农村 suburban district or country side. 后续再描述具体的地方：比如the roof of the skyscrapers ，Closest place to the sky. 说明这些地方看星星的好处和坏处。

当然最开始的部分还是要给出一个总的回应。

Well, I guess it depends greatly on where one live. I mean, for someone lives in the suburban district or country side, with less lights and average height of the house, positions for a better view may not matter that much. However, for one form urban areas, it would be excellent to stand on the roof of a skyscraper or get in a planetarium or museum where a telescope is set. Unfortunately, I have never tried this.

雅思口语magazine话题

Describe an interesting magazine. You should say:

what magazine it is

what the magazine is about

how often you read it

and explain why you like to read it.

常见误区：

对于part2的话题，大家习惯性的答题方法是两句话总结cue card的上的问题，然后将问题的答案进行一次又一次的重复，因为每个问题其实都没有得到深度的解答，因此，建议同学们将四个问题认真分析，把两分钟的演讲按照提示问题分成四个三十秒钟的回答，这样的答案结构清晰，易于考官理解，并且每个问题因为有三十秒的限制，都能够得到较为详尽的解释，给考官信息量丰富的感觉。

答题思路：

第一点，选题。在选题方面有一个原则即 don’t step out of your comfort zone，翻译成中文是不要走出舒适区，这句话的意思是要求同学们谈论自己熟悉的，了解的题材，而非从网络或者书上借来的内容，越和你自己生活相关，你在谈论的时候也会更有信心，答出的细节也会更多更真实。常见的杂志可分为时尚类，体育类，政治类，历史类，经济类，新闻类等等，选择你喜欢的领域。

第二点，根据话题卡确定答题结构，根据本题要求，给出大家一个样本供参考：a.杂志名称+它的titles，例如是全国最受欢迎杂志，在2014年卖出多少份等等，把它说的厉害一点b.杂志内容+举例，通常内容涵盖好多方面，大家可以拿出一个方面细说c.你看杂志的频率+理由，为什么看的那么频繁或者不频繁，给出原因d.为什么喜欢看 ，讲出理由收尾即可。

表达解析：

When it comes to this topic, I would like to talk about开头句be published发表continuously持续地不间断地first issue第一版edition版本global circulation全球发行量distinctive features特点extensive大量的，广阔的dramatic戏剧性的夸张的never fail to do做某事从未失败catch one’s attention吸引某人 endangered species, global warming and environmental issues濒危物种，全球变暖，环境问题feel close to…对...感觉亲近be born and raised+地点在某地土生土长 When it comes to this topic, I would like to talk about a magazine named National Geographic, it has been published continuously since its first issue in 1888. This magazine is circulated worldwide in nearly 40 local-language editions and had a global circulation of 6.8 million per month.

This magazine contains articles about geography, history and world culture. There are two distinctive features about it, the first thing is its extensive use of dramatic photographs, when people open it, the colourful pictures of rivers, mountains and animals never fail to catch their attention. The secondly thing would be the topics it has, most of the articles are about important issues like endangered species, global warming and environmental issues, more and more people have known a lot about our planet and its’ main challenge through reading it. I read it not often, maybe about once a month, for the reason that I’m buried in my homework for the most of the time, also that I prefer to read it in English, and there are many words that I need to look up, so it takes me a long time to read it. I love reading it mainly because I love to feel close to nature, for someone like me who was born and raised in the city, I seldom have the chance to go to a forest or climb a mountain, so reading National Geographic is a good way for me to know more about about our beautiful mother planet.

雅思口语Building话题

Describe an unusual building you’ve visited

You should say:

where it is

what it is used for

what it looks like

and explain why you think it is unusual

话题考频：

建筑物的话题一直是雅思口语话题的热门考题，有时考察的是历史建筑，有时考察的是现代建筑物，这个话题可以涵盖古今建筑，只要突出其“unusual/不同寻常”的特征即可

相关考题：

Describe a modern building

Describe a historic building

话题解析：

1.在回答这个问题的时候，为了能详细且准确地介绍该建筑物，最好能提前准备一些与建筑物相关的一些词语，比如说“外部”、“内部”、“柱子”、“面”等等，因此，我们可以登陆我们感兴趣的建筑物的英文介绍页面，最好是官方的网站，把里面的一些介绍性的，可取的说法借用过来，这个也是我们所讲的考试前要做准备

2.题目的核心词是“unusual”一字，所以我们在开头以及结尾的时候最好要突出该建筑物比较独特的地方，才能扣题

3.在解释“为何我觉得此建筑物很独特”的时候，要注意关于原因的表达，因果关系要合乎逻辑，比如在接下来要说到的范文当中，小蛮腰造型奇特，且又是当地地表与娱乐场所，用以交代选择说小蛮腰的原因

4.此话题将以广州的地标建筑广州塔作为范例，广州塔有一个外号叫“小蛮腰”，之所以叫这个名字是因为其独特的造型，同时它也是广州人休闲娱乐的好去处，元旦、农历新年、圣诞节也会有很多灯光秀活动，话题可延续性较强

话题词汇参考：

1.电视塔：TV tower

2.小蛮腰：slender waist

3.观光：sightseeing

4.地点：venue

5.摩天轮：ferris wheel

6.【小蛮腰的】椭圆形的面：ellipse

7.外部：exterior

8.内部：interior

9.多功能的：multi-functional

我们可以这么说：

Here I would like to talk about the Canton Tower in Guangzhou, which is one of the local landmarks and famous for its unique design and architecture. I’ve been there for several times and I will recommend it to every visitor to this city.

The Canton Tower is actually an astronomical and sightseeing tower designed by Dutch architects, located on Haixinsha Island, which was originally the venue for the 2010 Asian Games. It made its name and be known of the whole Asia because of its unusual and special structure shown in the opening and closing ceremony of the Asian Games on TV. Locals give it a nickname as “the slender waist” because of its twisted structure. Its exterior form is generated by two ellipses, one at foundation level and the other one at top. These two ellipses are rotated relative to another, and the tightening caused by the rotation between the two ellipses forms a "waist"; so I think that’s the reason why it has such a vivid local name.

I’ve visited the interior of the tower, which is pretty amazing as well. Inside, it is subdivided into different zones with various functions, including TV and radio transmission facilities, you know, as it is supposed to be, and observatory decks for you to admire the view of the whole city, the revolving restaurant, which I heard is pretty classy but I failed to try last time, horizontal ferris wheel, recommended as the best venue for proposal in the city, exhibition spaces, shops, and 4D cinemas etc. So you can say, it is a multi-functional place for our local people. And the most important thing is, you could enjoy wonderful landscape there! Therefore, I really think this unusual architecture is a good way for you to hang out with friends and appreciate the great beauty of the city.
