描述建筑的雅思口语

描述建筑的雅思口语

虽然建筑话题相对固定，但许多相同话题的下属问题却可能有所不同。

Describe an unusual building you’ve visited

You should say:

where it is

what it is used for

what it looks like

and explain why you think it is unusual

该怎么回答呢，其实建筑物一直是雅思口语的热门考题，建议大家看一些建筑的官网。不仅有亮点介绍【unusual】，还有一些比较准确的英文描述，很实用的呢

举个例子来说：广州塔【Canton Tower】， 昵称小蛮腰【the slenderwaist】，如果我们打开官网，http://www.cantontower.com/里面的内容真够丰富。看来小蛮腰不仅造型独特，还是休闲娱乐【谈恋爱】的好去处

话题考频：

建筑物的话题一直是雅思口语话题的热门考题，有时考察的是历史建筑，有时考察的是现代建筑物，这个话题可以涵盖古今建筑，只要突出其“unusual/不同寻常”的特征即可

相关考题：

Describe a modern building

Describe a historic building

话题解析：

1.在回答这个问题的时候，为了能详细且准确地介绍该建筑物，最好能提前准备一些与建筑物相关的一些词语，比如说“外部”、“内部”、“柱子”、“面”等等，因此，我们可以登陆我们感兴趣的建筑物的英文介绍页面，最好是官方的网站，把里面的一些介绍性的，可取的说法借用过来，这个也是我们所讲的考试前要做准备

2.题目的核心词是“unusual”一字，所以我们在开头以及结尾的时候最好要突出该建筑物比较独特的地方，才能扣题

3.在解释“为何我觉得此建筑物很独特”的时候，要注意关于原因的表达，因果关系要合乎逻辑，比如在接下来要说到的范文当中，小蛮腰造型奇特，且又是当地地表与娱乐场所，用以交代选择说小蛮腰的原因

4.此话题将以广州的地标建筑广州塔作为范例，广州塔有一个外号叫“小蛮腰”，之所以叫这个名字是因为其独特的造型，同时它也是广州人休闲娱乐的好去处，元旦、农历新年、圣诞节也会有很多灯光秀活动，话题可延续性较强

话题词汇参考：

1.电视塔：TV tower

2.小蛮腰：slender waist

3.观光：sightseeing

4.地点：venue

5.摩天轮：ferris wheel

6.【小蛮腰的】椭圆形的面：ellipse

7.外部：exterior

8.内部：interior

9.多功能的：multi-functional

我们可以这么说：

Here I would like to talk about the Canton Tower in Guangzhou, which is oneof the local landmarks and famous for its unique design and architecture. I’vebeen there for several times and I will recommend it to every visitor to thiscity.

The Canton Tower is actually an astronomical and sightseeing tower designedby Dutch architects, located on Haixinsha Island, which was originally the venuefor the 2010 Asian Games. It made its name and be known of the whole Asiabecause of its unusual and special structure shown in the opening and closingceremony of the Asian Games on TV.

Locals give it a nickname as “the slenderwaist” because of its twisted structure. Its exterior form is generated by twoellipses, one at foundation level and the other one at top. These two ellipsesare rotated relative to another, and the tightening caused by the rotationbetween the two ellipses forms a "waist"; so I think that’s the reason why ithas such a vivid local name.

I’ve visited the interior of the tower, which is pretty amazing as well.Inside, it is subdivided into different zones with various functions, includingTV and radio transmission facilities, you know, as it is supposed to be, andobservatory decks for you to admire the view of the whole city, the revolvingrestaurant, which I heard is pretty classy but I failed to try last time,horizontal ferris wheel, recommended as the best venue for proposal in the city,exhibition spaces, shops, and 4D cinemas etc.

So you can say, it is amulti-functional place for our local people. And the most important thing is,you could enjoy wonderful landscape there! Therefore, I really think thisunusual architecture is a good way for you to hang out with friends andappreciate the great beauty of the city.

雅思口语如何描述一座建筑

一、建筑话题之描述感觉类

建筑话题中的所有话题都有描述感觉类的下属问题，且往往要求考生描述如下方面：建筑所在地点【where】，参观此建筑的时间【when】/多久去一次【how long】，参与的人【who】以及为什么喜欢/不喜欢这个建筑【why】。

这种类型的下属问题对大多数考生来说都比较简单，只需把重点放在喜欢或者不喜欢的原因即可，因而寻找相关思路对学生来说较为简单明确，学生很容易找到相关思路并且做出清晰流畅的回答。

二、建筑话题之描述结构类

建筑话题中的描述结构类话题一般来说较为复杂。它不像描述感觉类话题那样，抓住重点即可说清楚，它的关键在于体现考生描述顺序的清楚程度【有点类似于写作中的示意图】。因此在备考时，考生可根据建筑结构的不同，将此类话题分为两类进行准备——即多层结构和单层平面结构。

1. 多层结构

这种类型的话题一般与library, art gallery, concert hall, museum等相关。

学生在描述时，首先需关注表示先后顺序的关联词的使用。

其次要注意句型的多样化，最好不要in the first floor, ... . In the second floor, ... . 这样流水账式的一路说下去。在备考时可以多准备些相关句型，如：If you go up to the ___ floor, you'll see ...到时套用即可。

2. 单层平面结构

这种类型的话题一般与park, garden等话题相关。在准备此类题型时，考生同样需注意表示先后顺序的关联词的使用。这种题很类似听力中的地图题，因此准备时可借鉴听力地图题的描述方法。

此外，考生要特别注意描述时的starting point，并根据出发点确定描述的方向;同时句型的多样化依然是准备的重点。

在描述过程中，考生最好能突出这个平面结构中的某个重点并加以详细描述，这样不但可以突出重点，还可规避考生描述并不熟悉的问题。

雅思口语怎么描述高大的建筑

Describe a tall building

you should say:

what the building is

where the building is located

how you got to know the building

explain why you like or dislike this tall building.

Sample answer：

I’m going to describe a very famous building in New York; the Empire State Building. People might not think of it as an old building, but the Empire State Building was built in 1931, so I don’t think it can be classed as new. It’s located on Manhattan island and it’s probably the most distinctive and recognizable building 【感受词搭，最显眼的建筑】when you look at New York’s skyline.

As far as I know,the Empire State Building is an office building, but visitors can go up to an observation deck【探索词搭-手脚，登上观察台】 on the top floor, which is the 102nd floor. There’s also a 360-degree observation area on the 86th floor. Apparently, the building makes more money 【探索词搭-金钱，挣钱】from the sale of tickets to the observation floors than it does from office rentals.

I think the Empire State Building is still one of the most impressive skyscrapers in the world. It’s such an iconic structure【感受词搭，标志性建筑】, and it’s amazing to think that it was built around 80 years ago. The best thing about the building is the viewing deck on the top floor, which offers spectacular views of the city【欲望词搭，提供城市的壮丽景色】; it’s definitely the best vantage point in New York. I’d recommend anyone who visits the city to go there and experience the view【探索词搭-头脑，享受景色】.
