方便考生在备考中梳理好答题思路，帮助我们在实战中遇到该类话题能应对自如，且高质量的完成。

What do you most often write about?

Mostly, I write novels in my spare time. I like reading novels very much. Since I was young, I always yearned for the world that novels created. So, when I learned how to write, I started to write novels to create the world l like.

Do you like writing?

Yes, I like writing very much. Except for the novels I write, I write diary every two or three days. The diary I write is not just the things happening in these days. My thoughts and the perspective of viewing the world are also showed in my diary. It is very interesting to read my diary to see the past me.

Did you like writing when you were a kid?

Yes, I did. But the only thing I wanted to write was story. Affected by the fairy stories at that time, I always created some imaginary figures and made up stories based on settings of fairy stores I heard. When I finished the story, I would show it to everyone immediately.

Would you like to make writing your career in the future?

No, I don’t think so. Although the time of writing is enjoyable for me, I can’t imagine my life of being a writer and publishing something I write. Maybe I will write a book in the future and publish it, but I don’t want to use writing to make a living.

雅思口语Transport话题

What types of public transport are there in your hometown?

Are you satisfied with the traffic in your city?

What are the advantages to society of having more people using public transportation?

Why do some people have to travel long distance to work every day?

这两个题目涉及的都是关于你家乡交通状况，你是否满意整体的交通，还有就是公共交通设施如何。

1. What types of public transport are there in your hometown?

在回答这道题的时候，考生很容易一直举例子，却缺乏逻辑性或者深度，例如‘There are many different kinds of public transportation in my hometown, such as buses, underground, trains, trams, ferries and so on.’ 这种回答很难达到一定的长度，并且感觉没有深度。

所以考生在这里可以进行分类说明，类别可以有很多，比如高峰期in rush hours,人们喜欢什么;或者根据路途的距离来分类，比如短程travel for a short trip,人们会选用什么。这里我选用的类别是最受欢迎和最常使用的类别。

Actually, there are many different kinds of public transportation in my hometown, such as, trains, trams, ferries and so on. However, the most of popular and common one would be the buses and the underground as these two types of transport are very reasonable and economical. They are most people’s choices, especially the underground, you know, the price’s very affordable and that you will never need to worry about traffic jam or being stuck in the traffic by taking underground.

在这里我们补充一些，关于不同的公共交通设施的优点和缺点。

Buses:

very cheap / reasonable/ affordable/ economical经济实惠的

too crowd / hot/ noisy

Underground:

Reasonable prices价格公道

avoid traffic congestion避免交通拥堵

a little bit packed in the rush hours高峰期有些拥挤

Trains:

Fast快捷

be more expensive than buses比公车贵

sometimes, not frequent enough车次不是很多

some places cannot be reached有的地方到不了

Trams

Urbanization城市化

connect two cities链接两个城市

very fast and efficient非常便捷

not flexible enough不是非常的灵活

注意：taxi是private hire并不算在公共交通工具中。

2. Are you satisfied with the traffic in you city?

这道题目依然可以延续使用分类法，就是可以想想在什么情况下，你对家乡的交通是满意的，什么情况下是不满意，需要吐槽的。这样就可以有效的延长你回答的长度，还有一定的逻辑性。

在这里，我采用的是时间的分类，就是在大多数情况下，我对家乡的交通状况和设施是满意的，只是在高峰时段或者一些交通要道的状况不太满意。

In general, I'm pretty happy with the transportation and traffic in my hometown. I mean the roads are quite wide and some transportation facilities are very advanced, especially the underground and buses, they look pretty new and clean all the time. But I do have something to complain, you know in the rush hours, the amount of cars increases very fast within a short time, some thoroughfares can be very congested. People who just finish their work cannot get a taxi or may waste a lot of time on going home.

另一个方向呢，就是考官会在part 3中和你讨论各种各样的交通工具，他们的优缺点和功能，以及人们为什么选择了这些交通工具。

雅思口语Robots话题

1. Are you interested in robots?

思路：先直接回答‘no’，然后解释下因为跟机器人没有什么交集。也就在一些科幻片里面看过它们而已。还有，机器人也不帅。

误区：注意不要直接重复题目，所以不能直接回答‘yes I’m interested in robots’或者‘no I’m not interested in robots’;注意换词

语料：

Not particularly不

my kind of thing我喜欢的类型

science-fiction films科幻片

science museum科技馆

find… attractive觉得……很迷人

related to… 和……有关联

other than that除此之外

范例：

Not particularly. I mean I’ve probably only seen them in some science-fiction films. Other than that, I don’t really feel related to it in any way. Plus, I’ve never found them attractive or anything.

2. Do you want to have robots in your home?

思路：可以先卖个关子，说一下不怎么想要。不过呢，想想能有一个机器人保姆帮我打扫房间，甚至帮我写作业，还是不错的。

误区：注意不要完全重复题目的用词，避免直接回答‘yes I want to have robots in my home’或者‘no I don’t want to have robots in my home’.

语料：

Not necessarily不是很需要

I reckon我猜想

Give me a hand帮助我一下

tidy up my room整体我的房间

make my bed铺床

hoover robot吸尘机器人

Robotic Vacuums智能吸尘器

look clumsy看起来很笨拙

it’s gonna be good这会很好

that would be nice那会很棒

have a hard time doing… 做某事很困难

a bonus一个奖/附加的好处

help me out帮助我

struggle with… 和……挣扎

school assignments学校的作业

范例：

Not necessarily, but I reckon it would be nice if I could have a robot nanny indoors who is always ready to give me a hand tidying up my room and even making my bed. Plus, it would be a bonus if she could also help me out whenever I’m struggling with my school assignments.

3. Do you want to take a car which robot is the driver?

思路：先回答一下并不想坐在一个没有司机的车里，除非它是个老司机。因为不管怎么说，还是不太敢完全相信一个机器，再说了，还听说在美国发生过无人驾驶车的交通事故。宁愿自己开车。

误区：注意避免和题目里面用词完全重复，所以无人驾驶车可以换换别的词，比如‘driverless car’‘self-driving car’或者‘robotic car’.

语料：

a driverless car = self-driving car= robotic car无人驾驶车

autonomous technology

have a go at it试一下

at least give it a try至少试一下

increase the chances of a crash

potential safety problem潜在的安全问题

take control控制

in an emergency在紧急情况下

范例：

Definitely not! I guess that’s the last thing I would wanna do. You might not know this, but I’ve heard a rumour that there have been quite a few accidents involving a self-driving car. To be fair, I don’t wanna risk my life or probably it’s just that I feel like I can’t trust a machine. Plus, I’ve got my own driving license, so I’d rather drive around myself.

雅思口语Law话题

1. Do you think it is necessary to create a law?

有必要：

存在即是合理，人类发展已经证明

The development of human race has already proved that a proper and sound legal system is required to maintain social security and it is the best symbol of a modern society.

约束行为，维护社会秩序，惩罚恶人，震慑潜在犯罪分子，维护社会公正，促进社会和谐发展

If there is no deterrent force of laws and regulations, inevitably, the whole society will become chaotic or disorderly.

If every individual acts without considering other’s feeling, there will be much trouble, because the basic right of others can be easily violated and no one can be protected from doing so.

The social order can only be kept through well-rounded legal system.

The legal system is also contributing to the social justice and a more healthy society in the long run.

没有必要：

如果人们足够自律和受教育，可以很好的控制自己，则不需要法律来过分约束，当然，这是需要在人类发展到一定程度才可能实现的。

If most people are fully self-disciplined and well-educated, they can take full charge of their own behaviour and control themselves even in extreme conditions. In this sense, there is no need to establish strict laws and punishment to guide people’s behaviour. Well, this can only be achieved when human beings develop into a very advanced level, not in the present-day society.

2. Do you think the law is fair?

不公平：

有钱人的游戏。很多案子最后的判决，不是完全由事实决定的，而是根据双方在法庭上相互辩驳，证据的收集和呈现方式决定的。通常，只有富人可以请到最优秀的律师，收集最全面的对自己有利的证据，所以，往往是有钱人最终获得胜利。

I don't think law is fair in most cases. It is even sometimes described as the game of the rich people. This is mainly because the final judgment of a case is largely determined by the process of trial, in which lawyer and judge play an indispensable role. The truth is that only the more wealthy side of the case can have the financial power to hire the most experienced and well-known lawyer and it is very likely that they also have a very good relationship with the judge. I’m not saying that the final judgment is wrong, but it is conceivable that the richer can have more advantages in the case.

政府在制定【introduce/ devise】法律时，都是以政府的/当权者/大多数人的利益【interest】为出发点。所以，不可避免在一些特殊情况，会损害到少部分人的意见。

When each law is introduced in the first place, they are devised to maximize the profit of the authorities and the majority of the citizens. So, in some situations, the profit of the minority may be damaged. Also, it is almost impossible to create a perfect law that can meet the requirement of each social class. At least, it has not been created until now.

公平：

法律的制定和实施不是一两个人决定的，而是一个国家在这方面最权威有经验的专家根据综合考虑制定的，并且随着社会发展在不断完善改进。

The creation and implementation of a law has never been decided by only a few people, but it is done by a large number of experts and specialists in this field, with every respects taken into consideration. Besides, with the enforcement of the law, it is also being revised and more cases can be referred when the court judge the situation.

即使初始的时候不够全面，也会逐渐修正，总体而言是公平的。

Even if it was not justice and perfect when first initiated, it can be gradually modified and generally speaking, it can be regarded as a fair system.
