雅思口语婚礼话题

雅思口语考察同学们的英语交流能力，同学们在备考阶段可以注意多积累素材，平时多模仿多练习，这样在考试中才不至于无话可说哦。

Ok, well I've actually been to quite a few weddings, because I'm now at the age when a lot of my friends are starting to get married, so it was kind of difficult choosing which one to describe, but I guess probably the easiest for me to talk about would be the most recent one I went to, which was that of a neighbour of mine.

Also, what I should probably make clear to you first, though, is that weddings here in China tend to just involve the wedding reception, as you may know, without the signing of marriage documents, which is usually done in private several months before the wedding, so it's just the reception which I'm gonna talk about.

And, as for who was there, well, I couldn't tell you everyone, because there were absolutely loads of people, you know, the hall was pretty packed, so my guess would be that there were probably something like 250 to 300 guests, and if I'm not mistaken, it seemed to be that the majority were friends and relatives of the bride and groom, although I also noticed that they had invited quite a few of their colleagues from work as well, because one of them, who I think was her boss, went up on stage to make a speech at some point.

Anyway, with regard to where the wedding was held, well, it was actually in a small city called Zhuji, which is about an hour's drive just to the south east of Hangzhou, because that's where the bride comes from, and the reception itself was held in quite a nice-looking hotel, which was easy to spot because it was about 10 times higher than all the buildings around it!

So regarding how I felt at the wedding, well, to put it simply, it was a really wonderful wedding, and there were some parts of it that moved me quite a lot, such as when the bride broke down in tears when she was on stage thanking her parents for all the support they had given her. It was also really clear to see how much the bride and groom loved each other, as they couldn't take their eyes off each other the whole evening, so I was really happy for them and was glad that I made it to their wedding.

That's pretty much it, I think, so thanks a lot for listening.

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Photography话题

1. Do you like taking photos/pictures?

听到这个题目很多同学的常规思路是“喜欢拍照，因为有意思【I love taking photos because it is very interesting】”。这种答法非常普便，最大的缺点就是太笼统，细节太少，不符合雅思口语评分标准中 ‘speak at full length’的内在要求。

那么有没有比较有意思，新颖，丰富的答案呢?下面我们通过语料分析来拓展一下思路。

这个问题所能展开的语料点有两个：

一是like这个单词，我们可以有很多同义替换的词汇，比如love, enjoy, be crazy about, be fond of等等。

第二语料点就是taking photos/pictures,我们可以想一想是给人照相，还是给风景照相，这样我们在设计答语时，就会有两个可发散的方向。或者两者都涉及到以使答更加丰富。关于taking photos/pictures，我们还可以用特殊疑问词去展开叙述，比如what，用什么拍照，相机还是手机，where喜欢在哪拍照，山里还是海边，还有how often多久拍一次。

对于这道题目而言，很多同学会有这样一个疑惑，Do you like taking photos是给自己拍照还是给别人拍照。这里我们可以引入一个短语 take photo of…表示给……拍照。所以为了保险一点，我们理解为给别人或其他东西拍照是绝对不会产生误解的。当然如想表达给自己拍照可以说 take photo of myself. 此题所考查的语法点并不是很难，主要是like doing something这样一个固定搭配。同时有相同语法规则的词还有enjoy doing something, 大家在使用时注意这一点即可。

范例：Oh, yes, taking photos is my favorite activity to have fun. Every time when I travel with friends or family people to some places such as tourist attractions or parks, I’m sure to take my camera to take pictures of sceneries, people and even myself. I will save and copy these pictures to my computer. Then I sometimes use photoshop to process the pictures to make them look more beautiful. Of course, like a lot of young people, I also use smart mobile phone to have photos quite often. The most important reason why I enjoy doing this activity is that photos always remind me of the wonderful past life. I love it.

2. Would you like to take photos of others or be photographed?

这是一个非常经典的选择性的问答题，面对这样的题目，大部分同学还是可以很快做出选择的，例如很多人会说: I would like to take photos of others.但是后续思路的拓展难倒了很多人，比如为什么喜欢这样的做法。理由的补充是雅思口语考试中最重要的细节之一。所以这个题目的思路的新颖性需要体现在reason这个点上。

我们来进行一下语料分析。首先是Would you like的替换，除了I would like这个短语之外，我们还可以用I would prefer to do, I have my preference for doing,甚至I want to, I love to都是不错的，也可以用一些对比信号比较强烈的词组，例如这样的开头句，Compared with being photographed, I would prefer to take photos of others.

那么接下来，我们该如何展开reason呢?最好的办法，就是结合自己的个人情况：

有的同学说自己不上相，我们可以说他不够photogenic,如果这个单词有难度，就可以说I don’t look beautiful/cool/handsome in photo.因此不太喜欢被别人拍照。

与之相反，有的同学比较喜欢欣赏自己的美，就可以说，I feel really confident when seeing beautiful me in photos.甚至可以自嘲说Maybe I have narcissism,有点自恋。因此这样的同学可以选择说喜欢被照相。这里我们谈了较多被拍照的思路，

除此之外，我们也可以就take photos of others展开分析，photography摄影是一个相对专业一点的爱好，想要拍好照片需要一定的技术，所以我们可以考虑一下自己的特长和爱好，从而确定怎么去答题。假如我的摄影技术很差，就可以说Taking photos of others is a hard job for me and many of my friends say that I often make them look weird in photos, so I seldom take photos of others.总之，这个题目思路和语料的展开是非常灵活的，因为题目给我们提供了两个事件：拍和被拍。因此，对比是主题。

雅思口语Sunshine话题

1. Do you like sunny days?

思路：

一般我们就喜欢回答yes或者no，然后来一个‘because’解释原因。我们也可以去尝试对比一下以前和过去。

误区：

有的同学没有在意‘sunny days’是连在一起的，所以会错说成‘I like sunny’，这样就不对啦，因为‘sunny’仅仅是形容词在这里，后面需要加上名词，变成‘sunny days’。当然也可以去转述，说‘I like it when it’s sunny’。还有的同学回答‘Do you like sunny days?’这个题目，喜欢直接回答‘Yes I like sunny days’或者‘No, I don’t like sunny days’。这样就很难在评分标准里面词汇一项得高分了。

语料：

Yes -> Totally = Definitely = absolutely!

No -> Definitely not! = Absolutely not! = Obviously not!

Not really = not particularly

范例一

Absolutely not! On sunny days, I just sweat so much and I always get my makeup smudged. Plus, you know here in China we all want to have fair skin, so I hardly ever go out when the sun is shining.

范例二

Yeah, totally. I used to hate it so much though back in the day cause I didn't wanna get tanned. Nowadays I’ve grown up a bit, so I’m not really bothered any more. Plus I find that the bright sunshine can always put me in a jolly good mood.

2. Do you like going outside on sunny days?

思路：

有的同学想在这一题用’it depends’去分情况，非常好!你可以这么讲 – Well I guess it really depends. I mean most of the time, I would prefer to stay indoors enjoying my lovely AC if it’s burning out there. But if it’s in winter, I like to take a walk somewhere to let the sun warm me up.

误区：

有的同学在这里可能会有点儿没注意介词的准确，时常听到这样的回答‘I like going outside in sunny days’或者‘I don't like going outside in sunny’。准备的表达是on sunny days. 注意在一个具体的日子里，我们要用on。比如on my birthday, on Valentine’s Day, on Xmas…

语料：

No - Not really = not particularly

the blistering sun炙热的太阳

范例：

Not particularly. I think my skin is too fragile and I can’t really put up with the blistering sun. You know I once had my back peeling after having stayed in the sun for too long. Anyway, I’m not being fussy, lazy or something, I mean if it’s a cloudy day, I wouldn’t mind going out there for a bit.
