雅思口语颜色话题如何描述

纵观当前的考查范围,可以说“色彩”几乎贯穿了整个口语考题的三个部分。在part 1中,有个topic关于颜色,着眼于考察考生们“最喜爱的颜色”,“偏爱深色还是浅色”以及“一些颜色在中国是否有着特殊的意义”等。而在part 2中,有个地点类话题“Describe a place you went to that was full of color”,要求考生描述一个多彩的地方,是一个典型的色彩与地点结合的考题。

下面,我们以“最喜爱的颜色”为例,剖析一下当前考生的状况。

Question:

What is your favorite color?

Possible answer from students:

Well, as for my favorite color, I think it is blue. Because I like blue sky, and the color of blue always reminds of the blue ocean and sky. You know, I really enjoy walking in the long and soft beaches and feeling the sea breeze.

解析:该考生的答案为“蓝色”,显然该考生是以大海的颜色为思路拓展展开的。当然,该联想是非常合理和常见的,但是,这样的答案也是显得较为“经典老套”的,很难让考官眼前一亮。其实,关于颜色的联想不仅仅局限在“大海”,考生们完全可以做出更深层次的联想,例如:文化、传统、服饰、性格、时尚、艺术等领域。

在“颜色”的联想中,我们将文化和各地传统方面的因素纳入考虑。

其实,不同的文化中,相同的颜色往往意味着不同的含义。例如上述答案中提到的“蓝色”。中国人面对蓝色肯定感觉是心驰神往般的舒畅。实际上,蓝色在英语国家有忧郁的含义,如美国有“蓝色星期一”【blue Monday】,指心情不好的星期一。blue sky在英语中意思是“没有价值”,所以,把“蓝天”牌台灯翻译成Blue Sky Lamp, 意思便是“没用的台灯”,这样的台灯怎能销得出去呢?另外,埃及人和比利时人视蓝色为倒霉的颜色。所以,上述考生的答案虽然客观陈述了天空和大海的颜色,但是因为考官对“蓝色”的西式理解是截然不同的,非常有可能引起不认同感和偏差感。

除此以外,关于一些“在中国有着特殊含义的颜色”,最先让人们能想到的可能就是“红色”,因为红色吉利喜庆,代表着热情红火。在中国一些婚宴场合,红色是非常多见的。但考虑到文化差异,红色在西方国家往往又有着截然不同的含义,西方人对红色的理解为血腥、暴力,警告等等。

除此以外,我们继续关注一下part2关于“色彩”与“地点”的联系。在描述一个多彩的地方话题时,难点往往在于将如何去阐述这个地方“多彩”的原因。其实,在解答这个问题的时候,往往也可以往“文化传统”方面去考虑。以下,笔者将结合自己曾经做志愿者的经历,以中东一个名叫Bahrain的国家为例,给各位展示“多彩”的古堡。

Describe a place you went to that was full of color

You should say:

Where it was

Why you went there

What you did there

And explain why you think this place was made so colorful.

Simple Answer:

If I have to say a few words on a place I went to that was full of color, what comes to my mind first is a place called Manama, the capital city of a middle-east country named the kingdom of Bahrain.

As far as I can recall, about 3 years ago, I joined a volunteer group and went there to do some volunteer job. Definitely, besides the job, I visited a lot of fantastic places and took thousands of pictures. A place, which impressed me most, is a fort. You know, forts can be commonly found in Arabic cities, but the forts in Manama are so unique. Because they are built in various colors, like dark yellow, white, light blue and even purple. That was so amazing that attracts millions of people from all over the word every year. One of my local friends told me that why should these fort been built in different colors is closely connected to local cultures. You know, different religions are mixed up in this mid east land.

I think I was deeply attracted by the amazing colorful forts there and even curious about its mysterious culture there.

雅思口语描述最爱的颜色

My favourite colour is green and I have loved this colour from my early childhood. Green is the colour of nature, liveliness, fertility and freshness. The first reason I like this colour is that the nature bears this colour everywhere. There is nothing more beautiful than the vast green trees, green vista and fields. Green is the symbol of life and it represents the safety. The colour green also represents good luck, health, tranquility. This colour has long been a symbol for fertility and that's why once been used in the wedding gowns mostly in 15th century. This colour is often used in decorating to show the calmness.

If we judge the colour green from the colour psychology perspective, we learn that green balances the heart and emotions and thus create the equilibrium in heart and brain. From the meaning of colour perspective, green is the symbol of growth, colour of spring and symbolizes renewal and rebirth. It is the sanctuary away from the complexity and stresses of the modern lives and the tranquility of the calm, fresh and greener area.

I have my wall painted in green colour and it is generally believed that green is an eye friendly colour unlike red. The mild green colour is a popular colour which does not look too violent or too dull. I liked this colour even in my childhood and that I can be sure from the dominant green usages in my childhood paints. My teachers sometimes laughed at my weakness on green colour when I painted a green sun and green moon. I still remember I pained a green alien and that painting became very famous among our friends.

I am not quite sure how my fascination started growing on green colour but I guess I started liking this colour as I had spent my childhood in an area where green was the most dominating colour. This was the colour of nature and I was surrounded by the beauty of nature. I noticed in my childhood that green is the colour for living and yellow and red means dying, specifically for the trees and plants I had. May be this idea influenced my preference of colour. May be this choice is not directly related to any of my experience and reflected in a later stage as part of my individuality and personal preference. Whatever is the reason, I guess Green is a colour of profound importance and is my favourite colour.

雅思口语怎么回答最喜欢的颜色

What’s your favorite color?

White:

I love the color white because it’s so clean and pure. When I wear white, I feel very peaceful at heart. But I have to pay attention because it gets dirty so easily. I think a white Tee Shirt and blue jeans are the best combination.

Black:

I think black is very mysterious and sophisticated. For a girl, it looks very sexy. And when you wear black you look thinner, because the color is very slimming.

Blue:

It’s the color of the sea and the sky. It’s also the color of jeans.

So I guess in a sense, it’s a young and free color.

Red:

Red is the hottest and most enthusiastic color you can ever imagine.

And it’s the color of China.

Green:

The color green reminds me of the nature and the environment.

It’s the color of Spring when all lives come back around us.

So wearing this color, I feel very close to nature.

Do you like the same color now as you did when you were younger?

Same:

Well, yeah.

I’m a kind of person that likes something and doesn’t change.

And I think the colors of black and white are the most classic.

I’m a simple guy, so I like simple colors.

Changed:

I guess it changed. When I was young, I was childish, so I like bright colors, such as light yellow and shiny red. But now, I’m a 20 years old young man, I’m more mature, and so I like more understated colors, such as dark blue or deep green.

What can you learn about a person from the color they like?

I think you can tell about a person’s personality by his or her favorite colors.

For example, if a person loves the color red, he’s very out-going and not afraid to show his feelings and emotions. But if a person loves black, for instance, she maybe very reserved and mysterious. She may not want to share too much with others.

Do any colors have special meanings in your culture?

I think the colors of red and yellow represent our home country, China,

because they’re the main colors of the national flag.

The color red also means happy occasions, such as wedding.

I know that the color white means wedding in the west.

Yet, the it means death in China.
