范文

When it comes to famous people I take interest in, the first name that comes to my mind is Steve Jobs. As we all know, he is the co-founder and chief executive officer of Apple Inc.

I got to know him through a speech he delivered at a commencement in Stanford University. I have to say that the speech was very inspiring and impressive, full of wisdom about how to live a life with dignity. His ending sentence in that very speech ‘stay hungry, stay foolish’, has also become my motto about life.

Before he became famous, Jobs experienced many hardships early in his life. His biological mother who was an unwed student, gave him up for adoption. Later, he dropped out of Reed College for his family couldn't afford the expensive tuition fees, and Jobs himself also lost faith in the value of college education. The experience of being poor was not at all romantic, as Jobs recalled. He couldn't afford a dorm room in college, and has been forced to sleep on the floor in one friend’s room. When things got worse, he even tried recycling Coke bottles to earn some money so that he could buy food with.

Speaking of how he became famous, Jobs co-founded Apple with Wozniak in the year 1976 to sell Wozniak's Apple I personal computer. They gained fame and a year later for the success of Apple II, one of the first highly successful mass-produced personal computers in the world. Later in his life, Jobs continued his legend in the field of high technology, unceasingly bringing people dozens of stunning high-tech products, making his way out of millions of competitors, and finally becoming a tech giant no one dares to despise.

As for the reason why I take him as my icon is that, he has the courage to follow his instinct and has great passion for his job. This inspires me because in order to do a great job, we must first learn to love what we do. Besides, his sticking to what he loves no matter how bad things got, also teaches me to never let go of what I truly love.

雅思口语花销不大的一天话题

Describe a special day that you went out but didn't spend much money

You should say:

What day it was

Where you went

What you did

Who you were with

当一谈到开销不大【花费不大】的一次特别的外出，我想说的是我去华山的一次经历。华山在华县，位于西安的东部。

When it comes to a special day out that didn’t cost too much, well, I would like to talk about a trip I had to the Huashan Mountain, which is located in the Hua County, somewhere in the east of Xi’an.

我记得是在我上大一之前的那个夏天第一次去了那里进行了一日游。一位曾经是我爸爸在军队的战友邀请了我们一家去了这个世界闻名的华山。我们早上起得很早，大概五点就驱车去了那里，然后开始一路爬上去。华山不想其它的山，不止一个山峰，是一个集合体。我们一口气把所有的山峰都爬了个遍。那天真的是那一年里耗费力气最多的一天，但是绝对值了!

I remember it was a summer day before my first semester of college in Xi’an that I went there for the first time. A military officer who once worked with my father in the army invited our family to have a one-day trip to this world-renowned scenic spot. We got up extremely early in the morning like 5 pm and drove to the foot of the mountain and began climbing. The mountain wasn’t like the traditional single peak one, it’s actually kind of a combination of many. We climbed all four summits at one go. That’s was probably the most energy-consuming activity during that whole year, but it’s definitely worth it!

虽然我们去之前就做好了充分的准备，但是我们没有一个对华山的所有风景都能了解到位。因为一路上有太多的风景等着你去探索发现，我们一点都没觉得爬得无聊。当我们到达山顶的时候，一种成就感油然而生。

Although we were fully prepared for this trip, it seemed none of us felt so confident about every detail of small scenic spots, because there’s quite a lot for you to discover along the way, and we didn’t find any single chance of being bored. When we reached the highest southern summit of the mountain, we felt a kind of sense of achievement.

我们都觉得这次旅行既健康又经济实惠。我们上下加起来包括买门票和饮料花了不超过三百块钱而且还获得了比去健身房花300块会员费得到的锻炼还多。

We all felt this was a really healthy and money-saving trip. Because we just spend no more than 300 RMB for beverages and the entrance tickets during the whole trip. And we got more fitness exercises compared to those who hit the gym with more than 300 RMB membership fees.

有人说有时候去这些山都比较的危险。但是我想说的是我们一生就活一次，为什么不能去尝试一下呢?而且也没有那么危险，你说是不是呢?

Someone said that it’s sometimes dangerous to go to those huge mountains, but I have to say that we only live a life for once, why not try it? Basically, it’s not that risky, right?

雅思口语重要信件话题

You should say:

When you received it

Who sent it

What it was about

Why it was important to you

Ok, well I suppose one of the most important letters I’ve received was an offer letter from a university I applied to – Leeds University, to be precise – so that’s what I think I’ll talk about.

And as for who the letter was from, well, I can't quite remember the name of the actual person who wrote it, I’m afraid, but if I’m not mistaken, it was sent by the university admissions office, who I guess are responsible for handling such matters.

Anyway, regarding what the letter was about, well basically, it was just informing me that I had been accepted onto their Master’s program in Finance, so it was really great news for me, because this was the course that I most wanted to study, and out of all the various universities that I applied to, Leeds was definitely top of my list, as it was the one that most appealed to me, in terms of both the course content and social life.

So, as you can imagine, I was over the moon after receiving the offer. I mean, it felt like all the years of hard work I’ve put into my studies seemed to have finally paid off, so it was like a dream come true for me, it really was.

And finally then, with regard to why this letter was important, well, I think it goes without saying that it was extremely important, because essentially, it means that I’m gonna be able to study abroad, which I’m sure will have a huge impact on my future career, as it will hopefully enable me to apply for jobs which I wouldn’t have otherwise been considered for.

And as well as this, I reckon that studying abroad will help me become more mature and independent, which I’ve noticed has happened with a few of my friends who have spent some time abroad, and I’m sure this’ll have a positive effect on my life in general.

So it’s a big opportunity for me, and I’m really looking forward to it!

雅思口语历史人物话题

You should say:

Who he/she is

what he/she did

When you first knew him or her

and why you are interested in him/her

The United States of America is a land of historical events. Besides, the country is also famous for some of its heroic sons. Abraham Lincoln is one of them. I am really glad that I got the opportunity to talk about him for the next few minutes.

I knew about Lincoln from the history class when I was in high school . Abraham Lincoln was the 16th President of the USA. During his reign, the situations were unusual. The country went under some serious critical moments and the Civil War was one of them. Besides, there were some political and constitutional crises as well. But Lincoln controlled the situations in an efficient manner. It is Abraham Lincoln who abolished the slavery. Before the abolition of this system, racism was at its peak. Lincoln also did some other notable activities. He is the man who also made the federal government system stronger. The modern economy actually started its journey with the association of this President. In fact, many of the facilities we are enjoying today are the gift of this smart man.

Yes, I like him much. He is a historical figure in the history of the USA. He served the country as a great guardian and wanted to improve the existing norms and rules. Accordingly, a good number of changes took place in the country and we are bearing the legacy in the present days. It is really a matter of courage indeed to rule a nation during a bloody war and provide the right directives, working amid internal crisis and more. He also supervised and set strategies during the war so that the losses are minimal. All of his attempts were humane and he dreamt of a modern America. He emancipated the slavery in the Thirteenth Amendment to the Constitution for the USA. In fact, this the greatest tasks he has ever done and for this reason, a majority of the US citizens like me hail him.
