Describe an interesting person.

You should say：

1, who this person is

2, what kind of person he or she is

3,why you think he/she is interesting

Speaking of an interesting person I know from another country, the first one comes into my mind is Mr. Davis. He is the person I met 1 year ago. The time I knew him was when he moved to our locality from a different city. He has a family with 3 members and he is an engineer graduate and has worked as a chief engineer in many reputed organizations as he told me. In his early 40‘s he took self-retirement and now enjoys his time either in developing some mysterious engineering and scientific tools or by travelling to different places of the world.

Mr. Davis mostly wears old-fashioned clothes and has long beard with a strange look in his eyes. To my surprise, I found my conversation with him very interesting as he likes to talk about his plan to invent something very important to change the world. I am not sure what he is up to but it seems very thought-provoking to learn that he really believes that. He travels to hills and forests mostly to stay close to nature as he describes this habit to be helpful for idea generation. People often look at him very strangely and do some small talks about his attitude but I find him to be an interesting person. To my surprise he is a very devoted and dotting father and husband and has a good flow of money even though he does not have a full time job now.

Mr. Davis is really an interesting person. One day he knocked at my door and I opened it. He asked whether I can give him some copper or not. I was pretty perplexed with his sudden appearance and demand for the copper. He told me that he was doing an important experiment and he needs this to carry out his test. I apologized that we do not have any copper to offer him and advised him to visit the nearby shopping complex where he might find it. He returned back after an hour with some bags and thanked me to let him know where he might find the copper he was looking for. He then offered to visit his house and have dinner with him. The whole confrontation took me by surprise and I understood from that very day that he was bit unusual and interesting in nature.

雅思口语Music话题

1. What kinds of music are suitable for children? Why?

idea：欢快活泼【upbeat/cheerful/lively】，朗朗上口的【catchy】旋律

reason：这样的旋律学起来很容易，也让孩子们开心【cheer them up】，他们可以快乐地跟着音乐唱跳【sing/dance to the music】

example：Gangnam Style是韩国流行音乐【K-Pop】，歌词也听不懂，可是孩子也喜欢，就因为其旋律很好被孩子接受【well-received among children】

idea：歌曲主题【themes/subjects】贴近孩子生活，歌词【lyrics】简单

reason：歌词很生动【vivid】，有画面感【have pictures/images in mind】，更容易吸引孩子们的注意力【draw their attention】，并引起他们共鸣【relate to】

example：两只老虎，小燕子，小兔子乖乖等经典【classic】童谣都是以孩子们喜欢的动物为主题

sample answer:

Well, I’m no expert on this, but I suppose one of the most important thing is the melody should be upbeat and catchy. Kids are always happy, so naturally they’d love music that cheers them up. On top of that, most children can’t handle complicated melody, what they need is something simple and memorable, so they can sing and dance to it easily and happily. Another thing I guess is the lyrics should be about subjects children can relate to. For example, the little ones normally adore songs about animals.

推荐词汇

I’m no expert on this. 我并非这方面的专家

2. Do you think people’s tastes in music will change as they get older?

idea：同意，会改变

reason：人的一生有机会接触到【get exposed to】不同的音乐类型【music genres】，然后就会喜欢上【fall in love with】一种新的音乐;又或者是跟个性特点【characteristics/personal traits】有关，年轻人精力充沛【energetic/enthusiastic】，喜欢追求刺激【look for thrill/excitement】，因此更容易跟动感的【dynamic】流行音乐产生共鸣，而随着年纪和经历【life experience】的增长，很多人的个性变得温和沉稳【calm】，这样的心态更容易接受古典音乐【classical music】或者交响乐【symphony】这样的类型

example：很多人年轻的时候痴迷于【be crazy about】摇滚乐【rock music】，觉得非常热血沸腾【thrilling/energizing】，然而等年纪增长以后就失去兴趣，觉得这种类型太嘈杂【noisy】，甚至听了身体都会不舒服

idea：不改变

reason：因为热爱，人们对于一种事物的热情不会衰减【the passion never fades】

example：我的伯伯是个死忠的爵士粉【a diehard Jazz fan】

sample answer:

Well, I think my answer is yes and no. On the one hand, people have lots of chances to get exposed to different types of music at different stages of life, so it’s very likely that they will find something that fascinates them, and their tastes in music will change. On the other hand, people just love what they liked in their youth, and his/her passion for a certain genre just never fades. Take my uncle for example, he’s been a diehard Jazz fan all his life. He just can’t get enough of it.

3. Has Chinese music been influenced by western music?

肯定有影响【definitely/absolutely】-全球化【globalization】不断推进，加之网络的推波助澜【with the help of the internet】，我国人民可以与世界人民同步【keep up with the global trend】，有机会听到来自西方的音乐，影响是难以避免【inevitable】的，尤其是流行音乐-西方国家有很多才华横溢的【talented/gifted】音乐人，他们激励了【inspire】我国的音乐人，同时西方音乐在音乐类型，创意【creativity/innovation】，技术【techniques】等各方面都有很多值得我们学习的地方-当前国内的流行音乐深受西方影响【have a big impact on】，有很多西方音乐的元素【element】，比如像是饶舌【rap】。

sample answer:

Yeah, definitely! It’s almost impossible to not get influenced, thanks to globalization, and I think it’s fair to say that pop music in particular has learned the most from western music. There are so many truly talented musicians in western countries, and they have inspired Chinese musicians tremendously. Nowadays you can see lots of western elements added into our pop songs. For example, rap is all the age these days in my country, and the younger generation just love it. They think it’s cool and fun.

雅思口语老师话题

1. Do you have a favourite teacher?

Um… Yeah, I suppose I do, but it’s actually kind of hard to pick out a favourite because I’ve been really lucky with all my teachers. You know, they’ve been really great, at least most of them anyway, but I guess my favourite teacher would have to be my Chinese language teacher, because she was incredible. I mean, the amount of effort she put into her teaching, and her attention to detail, were just amazing. And not only that, but she also showed a genuine care for all of us, which left a really deep impression on me. So yeah, out of all my teachers, I’d say she was probably my favourite.

嗯……是的，我想我喜欢，但实际上很难挑出最喜欢的，因为我和我的所有老师都很幸运。你知道，他们真的很棒，至少大部分都很棒，但是我想我最喜欢的老师一定是我的语文老师，因为她太不可思议了。我的意思是，她在教学中所付出的努力，以及对细节的关注，都是令人惊叹的。不仅如此，她还表现出对我们所有人的真诚关怀，这给我留下了很深的印象。是的，在我所有的老师中，我想她可能是我的最爱。

2. What kinds of teachers do you like?

I guess…. um…first of all, teachers who are passionate about their subject, because you know, if they show enthusiasm for what they’re teaching, I’m much more likely to get interested in that subject and do well in it. And as well as this, I also like teachers that are supportive and…what’s the word….approachable. So in other words, teachers that show patience and understanding, and are there for you if you need help.

我猜…嗯……首先，老师们对他们的课程充满热情，因为你知道，如果他们对他们正在教的东西表现出热情，我更有可能对这门课程感兴趣，并且学得很好。除此之外，我还喜欢那些支持我的老师……这个词……平易近人。换句话说，那些表现出耐心和理解的老师，如果你需要帮助，他们就在你身边。

3. What are the qualities of a good teacher?

Um…. I guess the best way to answer this would be to think of some of the good teachers I’ve had at school and university. So please hang on just a second while I have a quick think about it…..! Ok, well the good teachers I’ve had have shown a genuine care for their students. You know, they genuinely want their students to learn and develop. It’s not just simply a job to them. So yeah I think that’s the most important thing – taking their job seriously and really caring about their students’ development.

嗯…我想回答这个问题的最好办法是想想我在学校和大学里学过的一些好老师。所以请稍等片刻，我有一个快速的思考。好吧，我曾经的好老师对他们的学生表现出真诚的关心。你知道，他们真的希望他们的学生学习和发展。对他们来说，这不仅仅是一份工作。所以，我认为最重要的是——认真对待他们的工作，真正关心学生的发展。

雅思口语与亲友常去之处话题

Today, I’m going to share with you a place I often go visit with my friends. It is a small café near my home named ‘ABC’.

Though it is just five-minute walk to my home, it was actually my friend Lily who took me there for the first time. I remember that day, when the two of us were both worn out after a tiring day of school, Lily suggested we took some time off to relax ourselves. And, that’s why we ended up in that small café.

As a full-time student, I have to go to school 5 days a week. Therefore, the time left for me to visit this lovely place and spend some leisure time with my friends is mostly weekends. Fact is, my friends and I have made it a habit to visit this small café every Saturday night, and we usually go there by bike.

This small coffee house is located on a quiet street with a lot of trees planted on both sides. It also has a patio with hanging gardens which I like very much. Every time I sit reading there, it somehow makes me feel that I’m sitting in a tranquil paradise of my own. Separated from the hustle and bustle of city life, this small café allows me to ponder quietly, taking some precious time off to relax myself after a week of hard work. Here, I can concentrate on doing a personal project to writing diaries without being interrupted by other people.

Except for its peaceful environment, this café also serves great coffee and cakes. The employees working there are all very nice, showing appropriate waiting manners. In fact, I have already made friends with a lot of them, given the fact that I am no strange face to their shop.

As I said, I go there a lot with my friends. Over a nice cup of coffee, we get to share our little stories with nice scent around. At moments like that, we can escape from reality for a little while and enjoy ourselves.
