雅思口语part1水果话题

1.Do you like to eat fruit【s】 and vegetables?

Yes, sure, I love fruits, like oranges, watermelon and so on, because they’re sweet and refreshing and help me maintain my healthy diet. But I just go for the fresh ones. When they are cooked or preserved, such as canned fruit, they change at the chemical level and this kills a lot of the enzymes, which aid in digestion and the absorption of the nutrients.

当然，我很喜欢水果，比如说橙子、西瓜等等。因为这些水果很甜很提神并能让我保持健康的饮食。但是我只喜欢新鲜的水果。当它们煮熟了或者储藏了一段时间后，比如罐头水果，它们的化学结构就被改变了并且会减少酶素，你知道酶素是帮助消化和吸收营养的。

2.What’s your favourite fruit?

Well, I love oranges most because having one after dinner can help me break down my food better. They can also help me lose more weight. On the other hand, if possible, I’ll avoid lemons because I think they are a little bit too sharp for me.

我最喜欢橙子因为饭后吃橙子可以帮助我更好地消化。橙子还有利于我减肥。另一方面，可能的话，我会尽量避免吃柠檬因为我觉得柠檬太酸了。

3.Do you think people should eat more fruits and vegetables?

Definitely. You know, vegetables and fruits are important protective foods that are valued in maintaining alkaline reserves in the body and preventing disease. So people should eat more fruits and vegetables, which can be successfully utilized to build up and repair the body.

必然的。要知道水果和蔬菜是重要的提高免疫力的食物，它们非常有价值，能够保持身体里的碱性并预防疾病。所以人们应该多吃水果和蔬菜，这些都可以强身健体。

4.What are the benefits for children from eating fruits and vegetables?

Well, it’s important for children to develop good eating habits at an early age, as vegetables contain fiber, lots of vitamins and minerals, which may have additional health benefits. Obviously, kids usually have a sweet tooth and like to eat something that tastes good.

小孩从小养成好的饮食习惯是很重要的，因为蔬菜含有膳食纤维、丰富的维他命和矿物质，这些对身体很好。很明显，小孩喜欢吃甜食和美味的东西。

5.How much fruit and vegetables do you think a person needs to stay healthy?

Well, it depends on different types of people, like for example; adults should have 3 servings of fruit and 4 servings of vegetables on a daily basis, whereas children just need a cup of fruit or vegetables which are rich in vitamin C, such as citrus fruits, to keep their gums healthy.

这取决于不同类型的人，比如说，成人应该每天吃3份水果和四份蔬菜，但是小孩只需要一小份水果或者蔬菜，这些水果或者蔬菜要有丰富的维他命C，比如柑橘类水果，以便保持牙龈健康。

雅思口语Neighbors话题

1. Do you think neighbors are important?

解析：这个话题是典型的part 3重要性类型的问题。常见的提问方法为 “Do you think …is important/necessary?” 基本上是在讨论话题的必要性和重要性，当然如果讨论思路，基本上考官问是否重要，多半都是回答重要的会比较好回答。相信很多考生都比较熟悉“远亲不如近邻”这个谚语，“A distant relative is not as helpful as a near neighbor”。邻居的重要性可以在很多地方体现，比较容易想到的是可以互相帮助，在生活上会方便很多，其实良好的邻里关系也可以促进和谐的人际关系，让你每天幸福感提升。毕竟，又如中国古话说，“抬头不见低头见”, “be bound to see much of each other”.

Tip：在part 3跟考官的进一步讨论中，我们经常可能会受到文化影响，引用一些中国的谚语等，这个时候都可以用 “As the old Chinese saying goes” 引出。

Sample

Of course, that’s for sure. Cause you know you are bound to see much of each other, when you go to work or when you get back home, or in the lift and so on. They can provide you with some immediate help. Just as the traditional Chinese saying goes, “A distant relative is not as helpful as a near neighbor”. Besides, a healthy, strong relationship can enhance your happiness of living in the community.

引申：

Do you think it’s are important to have a good relationship with one’s neighbors?

这题与上面的题目类似，甚至可以说重复，但是如果考官考察到了，我们可以选择上面以说道理为主，下面以举实例为主的方式，又或者采取两者结合，给出一个相对比较完整丰富的答案。

Sample

Yes, absolutely. For example, when you go for a work trip, and you can ask your neighbor to take care of your pet or to watch out your house for you occasionally. You know, crimes like burglars or robbery can be greatly reduced through a helpful neighbor. So it’s really practical to have a good relationship with your neighbors.

2. Do you think people’s relationships with their neighbors today is the same as it was in the past?

解析：part 3典型的对比类题目。讨论邻里关系变化。类似的题目还有

How do you think the neighbor relationship has changed in China in recent years?

Do you think it’s common in China to not know each other’s neighbors?

Sample

Maybe not. You know in the past, most Chinese people live in a big yard, they share some public facilities, send each other homemade food, visit each others’ home all the time, it’s like they are a big family. However, nowadays, most of the people live in apartments, and they shut the door after work. It’s common in China right now to not know your neighbors at all. They are already totally different.

3. Why do you think is that?/ What are the reasons behind that?

解析：讨论人际关系变淡的原因。除了上文中提到的客观原因，比如现在居住的环境变化，人们生活水平提高，不再共同享用公共设施以外，这里可以从人的角度去讨论，现在大家都很忙，压力很大，没有时间去跟邻居社交，另外现代人普遍对于陌生人会比较警惕，冷漠，缺乏信任。

Sample

Well, there are many factors for that. You know, modern people are all busy with their life and suffer from a lot of stress. So they don’t want to still suffer from the pressure of socializing after work. There is no doubt to say that modern people tend to be very indifferent towards others. They couldn’t trust others easily.

4. What are the benefits of belonging to a community?

解析：这个话题是有一定难度的。Belong to a community这个概念很多中国考生并没有那么熟悉。其实我们就可以简单理解为，作为你自己生活小区的一员，有归属感，遇到问题，可以得到小区其他成员的帮助，并且大家可以通过共同的努力去完成一些事情。

Sample

There are plenty of them. For one thing, you can experience the sense of security. You, as part of the community, there is a whole group of people behind your back. If you come across some problems, they will help you like your friends and families. More importantly, belonging to a community can help you, with others together contribute to it, making a better community. You know, when you are actually living in a community, there are a lot of things couldn’t be done by one single person. If you are really part of it, you would really want it better.

雅思口语Borrow something话题

Describe an occasion that you borrowed something from friends or family members

You should say:

What the thing was

When you borrowed it

Whom you borrowed it from

And explain why you borrowed the thing

很多第二部分的话题，其实一两句就都可以说完，但是雅思考试的第二部分需要大家去说到2分钟，就需要很多的细节扩展。先来看下答案里的四段：

第一段铺垫了我为什么需要借包：

Last year, like in December, I went to Beijing for a training and all the trainees were told to bring laptops since after the training everyone had to go through an assessment. It was only a 2-day training so I was wondering maybe I shouldn’t bring too many things with me, so I borrowed a really big backpack from my mom, as i need to bring a laptop with me. I do have a school bag but it is quite small, so the laptop couldn’t fit in. So I needed a larger one to carry heavy loads.

第二段描述了包的外观，还借了一件羽绒服：

It is a black backpack fitted with one large pocket for the laptop and several pockets for small-sized items, it has big capacity for all the items that i need for the trip. My mom did commercial air travel a lot, so she has not only lent me the bag, but also a down jacket, since the winter in my hometown is quite warm, i haven’t worn a down jacket for years. But the winter in Beijing, it is cold and feature strong winds. So i also have borrowed a down jacket to keep me warm.

第三、四段说了原因和感受：

I thought I had made a good decision to have the backpack as carry-on bag for airplane travel. Because on one hand, i had more of my possessions at hand during the flight, and i have skipped the very time-consuming baggage claim process, and have avoided the risk of having the checked baggage lost or damaged. So i have spent less time on checking in the luggage and waiting in the line.

After the 2-day training, we flew back home, we arrived at Kunming international airport at 1 am, some of my friends had to wait for the luggage claim for another 30 mins, however i had already hopped on a taxi and left. So i thought a backpack, or any form of hand luggage really saved people time and energy for air travel. So it was a time I have borrowed a bag from my mom and it was really useful.

上面每一个段落其实都是亲身经历，细节是比较容易想出来。所以我比较鼓励同学们都要尽量说真实的东西，因为你经历过细节和感受就很容易说出来，而去编语料就很容易没有细节，说不到两分钟，流利度就会受到影响。

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.
