雅思口語新話題:一個特殊的旅行經(jīng)歷
雅思口語考試當(dāng)中,同學(xué)們可能會面臨能想到但是說不出來,或者不知道嗯么說的按情況,這也是導(dǎo)致雅思口語分?jǐn)?shù)不高的原因。大家不妨看一下專業(yè)雅思老師的思路是怎樣的。下面小編給大家?guī)硌潘伎谡Z新話題:一個特殊的旅行經(jīng)歷。
雅思口語新話題:一個特殊的旅行經(jīng)歷
今天我們來看一個本季度part2事件類的新話題:一個特殊的旅行經(jīng)歷。
Describe an unusual experience of traveling
You should say:
Where you went
When you went there
Who you were with
What you did there
And explain why it is unusual
這個話題是不是很眼熟,我們本季度還有很多類似的題目:
Describe an experience that you went out with your friends and had a good time
You should say:
Where you went
When you went out
What you did
And explain why you had a good time
其實這兩個話題完全可以合并成一個話題,但是也要稍作改動,畢竟“好的出行經(jīng)歷”和“特殊的旅行”還是有一點不同的。
那我們的思路是什么呢?
首先,介紹基本情況,3W(when, where, who)+1H(how);
其次,地點類(尤其是跟旅行相關(guān))的話題都可以從如下幾個方面入手:食物、建筑、風(fēng)俗、景點、交通、行程規(guī)劃等等入手。我們之前有很多跟旅行相關(guān)的話題,大家不妨稍微改動,靈活串題。
接下來就是切合本題的一些回答思路了,為什么特殊呢我們以四川為例做以分析:
那想一想差不多有這幾個原因:
1. 食物很unusual: 四川人特別喜歡在hot pot(火鍋)里涮各種奇奇怪怪的食材,比如pig brain(豬腦), solid duck blood(鴨血), rabbit head(兔頭)等等,一般北方人似乎都不太能吃習(xí)慣,I myself think it is definitely unacceptable and disgusting;
2. 生活極其悠閑:各種tea house(茶館),mahjong parlor麻將館,露天采耳攤(open-air ear cleaning stall)比比皆是,似乎四川人過的都非常佛系。
3.各種景點:熊貓基地、三星堆、都江堰等等都非常獨特且吸引人。
好,那么接下來給大家展示一個sample,一些有用的表達大家可以借鑒,在自己準(zhǔn)備的時候一定要出聲錄音訓(xùn)練,盡量回答地自然一點兒,不要讓考官覺得你在背模板:
Well, I’d like to share with you my experience before. That was a few years ago, I went to Sichuan to travel with 3 girlfriends.
I remember that was during a winter vacation, we made the plan and packed everything and went to Chengdu by train.
Over there, we visited many interesting places, but the most impressive experience to me is the trip to a museum called San Xing Dui which was a relic of a community about 6000-8000years ago and located outside Chengdu city about 1 hour driving distance.
When we first got there, we thought it probably like any other museum with some ancient objects. And to our surprise, there were much stuff but none of them we have seen before. It was really an eye-opener.
Everything there was made of bronze, but the shapes of them and the symbolized meanings are just unique and exotic. For example, there were so many bronze masks, but place where the eyes should be have two long sticks protruded out, just weird~! Because people lived in this tribe believed their ancestor had such pair of eyes. At that time, I wonder are they aliens?
Plus, we saw a giant bronze tree and dragon, and I love that bronze tree most. Because first it was quiet tall, about 2 or 3 floors high, and which was the symbol of the path to the heaven. Ancient Chinese believed there was a tree could connect the human world and the heaven. If people wanted to go to the heaven, they just need to find it and climb this tree, but which could use their whole life to look for or really climb it. And the Sun and Moon also rose every day from the east and west part of the tree. How fantastic it is! Those wonderful stories.
We really learned a lot there, which totally changed my idea about our history. After that, i knew, there used to be a very exotic culture done here.so this trip is very special in my point of view, and we certainly enjoy it very much!
解析雅思口語話題之特殊的旅行
旅行類相關(guān)話題:
Describe a country you want to go to but haven’t been to(想去而未去的國家)
Describe a place near water (such as river, lake, and ocean)(近水之地)
Describe a long car journey you went on(長途自駕游)
Describe a short vocation you were impressed(短途旅行)
Describe a special trip you would like to go in the future(未來想去的特殊的旅行)
旅行的元素:
關(guān)鍵字No.1 交通工具:自駕游,房車游
Vocabulary:
self-driving travels/road trips自駕游
SUV (super utility vehicle)多功能車
touring car/camper/caravan/recreational vehicle房車
關(guān)于房車的英文表達,選擇比較多。其中,在歐洲,用于旅行用途的房車叫作caravan, 其實就是大篷車的意思。例如:Mike was on a caravanning holiday.(邁克駕駛房車出去旅行了)。
而recreational vehicle, 就是時??梢栽诿绖≈新牭降拿~“RV”的全稱。因為在歐美發(fā)達國家,每到周末的時候,房車就會愉快飛馳在各條公路上。在西方國家,開著房車旅行似乎已經(jīng)成為人們周末或假期的休閑娛樂的一種方式。
wagon 旅行車
這是一種以轎車為基礎(chǔ),而后備箱儲物空間比較大的車型。在西方國家,打出租公司預(yù)定電話提前預(yù)定用車的時候,尤其是一些去機場的旅客們會尤其指定該類車型,主要原因就是考慮到儲物空間大可以放更多的行李。而在中國,該類車型的出租車幾乎不怎么見得到。
關(guān)鍵字No. 2特別的住宿:www.Airbnb.com
關(guān)于旅行的住宿,傳統(tǒng)意義上第一能想到的肯定是“hotel”這個詞。除了“hotel”這么一個單詞以外,我們還可以來看一些其他的分類:
B&B (bed and breakfast)提供住宿和早餐
boutique hotel 精品酒店
resort 度假村
hostel/youth hostel 青年旅社
當(dāng)然,如果想打破這些傳統(tǒng)的住宿方式,嘗試全新的住宿體驗,那么就推薦www.Airbnb.com這個網(wǎng)站。在這個網(wǎng)站上,可以體驗住神奇的樹屋(wooden house),被小鳥叫醒;也可以住阿姆斯特丹的船屋(boathouse), 體驗水城的獨特風(fēng)韻;當(dāng)然,還有現(xiàn)代主義風(fēng)格的別墅(Villa), 體驗高檔風(fēng)景的絕贊。
關(guān)鍵字No.3旅行的形式:窮游,出境游
Vocabulary:
independent travel自由行
outbound tourism 出境游
package tour 跟團游
in-depth travel 深度游
travel on a budget窮游
budget traveller窮游旅行者
backpacker 背包客
tour pal驢友
easier visa procedures 簡化簽證手續(xù)
隨著網(wǎng)絡(luò)以及信息化的進步,人們在選擇出行的時候,已經(jīng)不再依靠旅行社的package tour。人們更多的可以利用類似于“攜程網(wǎng)”之類的網(wǎng)站自己預(yù)定旅行的機票,住宿,接機等服務(wù)。時下,跟著旅行團走馬觀花趕景點或者在旅途中被迫消費等方式已經(jīng)越來越不為人們所接受,人們追求的則是“自由行”,“深度游”等。
關(guān)鍵字No. 4目的地的選擇:小眾之地,農(nóng)家樂
less-known places 小眾之地
farm stay 農(nóng)家樂
domestic place 國內(nèi)的地方
old town 古城
over commercialization 過于商業(yè)化
對于目的地的選擇上,那些過渡開發(fā)或者過于商業(yè)化的成熟景點也越來越不能滿足人們的品味。相比于擁擠和吵雜的熱門景點,人們似乎更愿意選擇安靜和有待探索的小眾之地。
結(jié)合上述關(guān)鍵字的補充,以下,我們來分析一篇近期的旅行類話題“特別的旅行”。
Topic analysis:
Describe a special trip you would like to go on in the future
You should say:
Where this place is
Who you would like to go with
What would you do there
And explain why this would be a special trip
Sample answer:
If I have to say a few words on a special trip that I would like to go on in the future, I would like to bring up the trip to Tasmania in Australia.
Tasmania is a separate island in south of Australia, which is known as the heart of the world. Actually, I have spent two years study in Australia, however, I have never been to this must-go destination.
After hard working for the whole year, recently, I would like to have my annual leave. Therefore, the idea of going to Tasmania suddenly popped up in my mind. I would like to go with my best friend, who is a senior traveller. She’s really good at scheduling trips by her-self instead of booking the package tour in travel agency.
As my friend suggested, we would rent a SUV and have a self-driving trip around the island. The highlight of the trip would be we will not book the traditional hotel in Tasmania, instead, we would like to try boathouse through the help of a useful website called ‘Airbnb’, which is a website can provide unique service of booking unusual accommodations, such as a wooden house in amazon forest, a boathouse in Perth, and even a cave hotel in Cappadocia of Turkey.
As for why this trip would be a special trip, I think the reason is very obvious. Currently, people are increasingly getting no longer satisfied with just sightseeing trips. I am sure our well-organized plan and the special accommodation would definitely make the trip unique.

雅思報考指南之雅思考試介紹
雅思考試(IELTS - International English Language Testing System 國際英語語言測試系統(tǒng))是聽說讀寫四項英語交流能力的測試。雅思考試由英國文化協(xié)會、劍橋大學(xué)考試委員會外語考試部和IDP教育集團三方在全球共同組織運作。 雅思考試是一種較全面地針對聽說讀寫四項能力的、為打算到英語國家學(xué)習(xí)、工作或定居的人們設(shè)置的英語水平考試。
每年,全球共有超過200萬的考生在135個國家和地區(qū)參加雅思考試。雅思考試已經(jīng)成為全球留學(xué)移民類英語測評的領(lǐng)導(dǎo)者。
全球超過8,000所院校機構(gòu)所認(rèn)可。無論你想留學(xué)、移民、就業(yè),還是檢測英語水平;無論你想去英國、美國、加拿大、美國、新西蘭,還是荷蘭、法國、德國、新加坡、香港等;你只需要一項英語考試—雅思考試。
雅思考試兼具實用性和學(xué)術(shù)性,能夠精準(zhǔn)地測評考生真實的英語溝通能力。 雅思分學(xué)術(shù)類(A類)和普通類(G類)兩種題型,學(xué)術(shù)類主要適合留學(xué),普通類主要適合移民。針對赴英國讀書的同學(xué),英國大使館推出用于英國簽證及移民的雅思考試,雅思產(chǎn)生聽說讀寫四個單項分?jǐn)?shù),單項的滿分是9分(精通英語),其次是8分 (優(yōu)秀英語),7分(良好英語),6分(掌握英語),5分(勉強掌握),4分(有限英語),3分(少量英語),2分(少量單詞),1分(不懂英語),0分 (沒有考試)。
雅思考試包括四個部分,依次為聽力、閱讀、寫作和口語,考試時間共2小時45分鐘。每一部分都獨立評分,四部分得分的平均分作為考生的雅思綜合得分(小數(shù)部分取舍到最近的一分或半分,即如果平均分為6.125分,雅思得分算作6分)。成績單上將列出考生每一部分的得分,同時給出考生的綜合得分。雅思考試滿分為9分??荚嚦煽冊诳荚嚭笫畟€工作日后通知考生。雅思考試成績有效期為兩年。
通常經(jīng)驗,一名有中級英語基礎(chǔ)的考生通過有關(guān)IELTS參考書籍學(xué)習(xí)或考前復(fù)習(xí)培訓(xùn)班,二三個月后可參加本考試。
對中國考生來說,IELTS考試的詞匯要求并不高,主要偏向生活化,但答題技巧和英國傳統(tǒng)題型,因與TOEFL和國內(nèi)英語考試(4-6級)完全不同,所以掌握題型和快速解答就顯得非常重要。
考試分4個部分,一般需要兩天時間舉行。第一天的上午,全體考生都要參加相繼進行的聽力、閱讀、寫作三項考試;第一天的下午和第二天上午陸續(xù)舉行口語考試。許多人都覺得一般外地考生會被優(yōu)先安排在第一天下午,實際上這種觀念是錯誤的,口語考試的安排是隨機的,和本地外地考生無關(guān)。
