2.雅思口语新话题卡解析篇二

1.话题卡

首先来看我们要讨论的这张话题卡的内容:

Describe a car or vehicle you would like to

have in the future. You should say:

•which you will choose

•what it will look like

•how much it will cost and explain why

you’d like to buy it.

众所周知,雅思口语的每个话题卡上会有四个不同的小要求,需要考生们按照题目的要求进行独自描述。那么下面,笔者就对这四个要求一一进行分析,给出范例,并列出其中的有用表达供考生记忆和参考。

2.四个要求

要求一:

Which will you choose? 你会选择什么代步工具?

要买代步工具的话,你会选择哪一种?针对这个问题,大家最容易想到、也最方便说的就是汽车了。考生可以从汽车的品牌说起,比如Alfa Romeo (阿尔法·罗密欧)、Aston Martin (阿斯顿·马丁)、Rolls-Royce (劳斯莱斯)等。这些牌子大家再熟悉不过了,可顺手拈来。然后再从性能等方面给出理由即可。

例文:

In the future I would like to have a BMW. I think BMW makes the slickest car on the road. First, I would choose a car rather than a motorbike or truck because cars are a nice mix between maneuverability and versatility. A big rig like a truck wastes a lot of gas. A motorcycle can get good mileage, but does not work well in snowstorms. (以后我要买一辆宝马汽车。我觉得宝马能制造出道路上最酷的汽车。首先,我选汽车而不是摩托车或卡车,是因为汽车是操控性和功能性的完美结合。像卡车那样的大型车太费油。摩托车省油,但是遇上暴风雪的天气就没法开了。)

词汇资源:

slickest = coolest 最酷的

例句:That is a really slick boat. Where did you buy it? 这艘船真酷,你在哪儿买的?

nice mix = good combination 很好的结合

例句:Internet café is a nice mix between work and fun. 网吧是一个将工作和娱乐很好地结合在一起的地方。

mileage = fuel efficiency 油耗

例句:This car gets really poor mileage.

这辆车太耗油了!

要求二:

What will it look like? 这辆车会是什么样子呢?

针对这一点,大家可以选择的素材其实很多,无论是motorcycle (摩托车)、taxi (出租车)、coach (旅游大巴)、lorry (货车)、jeep (吉普车)还是van (厢式货车)都可以。请看下面的例文:

例文:

I would want to buy a red, mid-sized BMW. I would pick red because it is a color that stands out in a crowd. I would keep it washed and spruced-up all the time so that it would turn the girls’ heads. It is difficult to wow someone with your car if the inside looks like a pigsty. (我想要买一辆红色的中等大小的宝马车。我要选择红色的,因为红色很醒目。我会让它保持清洁干净,这样就可以引起所有女孩子的注意了。如果车里像个猪圈一样,就很难给人留下深刻的印象。)

词汇资源:

stand out in a crowd = be noticeable

引人注目的,醒目的

例句:The tall man really stood out in the crowd.

那个高个子男人真引人注目。

spruced-up = clean, looking nice 干净的,清洁的

例句:I always keep my room spruced-up.

我总是保持房间清洁。

turn people’s heads = capture people’s attention

引起人们的注意

例句:The fancy watch turned everyone’s heads.

这块时髦的手表引起了所有人的注意。

wow = impress 给……留下深刻的印象

例句:Tom wowed his boss with his presentation. Tom的演讲让他的老板留下了深刻的印象。

pigsty = 猪圈,猪窝

例句:Wow, did you see Rob’s house? It was a pigsty! 喔,你看到Rob的房子了吗?简直是个猪窝!

要求三:

How much will it cost? 这辆车会花费多少钱?

在这辆车上花多少钱取决于每个人的预算。有些人是汽车迷,买了车之后还会花费很多钱去改装,变成改装车(hot rod);有些人不会在汽车上花费太多,认为这仅仅是个交通工具(transportation tool)。

例文:

The car will cost a pretty penny. BMWs are not a poor man’s car. Most people who drive them are really loaded. In light of this, it will probably take some time before I can shell out the money to buy one. (这车会很贵。宝马不是便宜车。很多开宝马的人都很富有。考虑到这一点,要花钱买辆宝马车的话,我还得等一段时间呢。)

词汇资源:

pretty penny = expensive〈口〉一大笔钱

例句:Buying a new house costs a pretty penny; it’s expensive.

买一所新房子要花一大笔钱,真贵。

poor man’s = inexpensive 便宜的,穷人的

例句:It’s a poor man’s beer, but it is my favorite beer. 这是穷人啤酒,但却是我的最爱。

loaded = wealthy 有钱的,富有的

例句:Kim is loaded; she is very rich.

Kim很富有,特别有钱。

in light of = acknowledging… 考虑到……

例句:In light of gas prices, I suggest we walk.

考虑到汽油的价格,我建议步行。

shell out = spend 花费

例句:I don’t want to shell out 10 dollars for a hamburger.

我可不想花10美金买一个汉堡。

要求四:

Explain why you’d like to buy it.

解释一下你为什么要买这辆车。

有些人买车是为了方便(convenience),有些人买车是为了配合自己现在的职位(position)或地位(status),多数是用作商业目的(business purpose)。当然,不排除一部分人买车纯粹是为了炫耀一番(show off)。

例文:

I would like to buy a BMW because a good car is a mark of pride in China. Not all cars are the same. I really like cars and tend to dote on them. I love the feeling of driving on the open road. I like driving with the pedal to the metal, going as fast as the car will go. I love to go joy riding at night without the lights. It is a heart-stopping experience. I guess I really want the car as a trophy to show off to my coworkers. If I owned a BMW I would be the envy of the whole office. (我要买宝马车是因为在中国,一辆好车是身份的象征。并不是所有车都是一样的。我真的非常喜欢车,愿意把热情倾注在车上面。我喜欢在大路上开车的感觉。我还喜欢把油门踩到最大,全速前进,能开多快就开多快。我喜欢在漆黑的晚上开车去兜风。那是非常刺激的感觉。我想我还希望把这辆车当做战利品去向同事们炫耀。如果能拥有一辆宝马汽车的话,我会是全办公室羡慕的对象。)

词汇资源:

mark of pride = an important symbol or respect

身份的象征

例句:Having a good watch is a mark of pride in some European countries.

在一些欧洲国家,拥有一块好手表是身份的象征。

dote on… = give all attention to…

溺爱……,倾其热情于……

例句:Kyle loves his children—he is always doting on them and spoiling them.

Kyle爱他的孩子们——他倾注所有的爱在孩子们身上,非常溺爱他们。

pedal to the metal = go as fast as possible

把汽车油门踩到最大,全速前进

例句:Sue puts the petal to the metal when she drives long distances.

Sue开长途车的时候经常把油门踩到最大。

joy ride = tool around 开车兜风

例句:Shall we go for a joy ride?

我们开车去兜风吧?

heart-stopping = thrilling, very frightening

令人震撼的,吓人的

例句:Watching the boy fall off the cliff was a heart-stopping experience.

看着那个男孩儿从悬崖上摔下来真是个吓人的经历。

envy of the whole… = the entire…would be envious

全……羡慕的对象

例句:He’s the envy of the whole street.

整条街的人都羡慕他。

通过以上话题卡的学习,相信大家掌握了不少口语词汇和句型。希望大家能够多多练习这些口语资源,在日常生活中刻意使用出来。反复练习在口语学习中占据着很重要的地位,如果说搜集资料、整理答案在整个口语备考过程中要占30%的时间的话,那么反复练习就应该占70%的时间。在口语考试短短的15分钟内,考生只要把自己掌握的一些相关词汇、词组巧妙地予以运用,就可以在词汇方面取得高分。

5.雅思口语话题解析篇五

乍一看这个话题实在不知道如何丰富，仿佛一句话就能说完，比如做题遇到苦难，去某个网站找答案，对于搜索结果很满意之类的。

从雅思口语评分标准及口语话题逻辑上来说，这样的口语话题评分只有6分左右。那么什么才是考官喜欢，考生容易记忆和背诵的专属范文呢?

雅思口语话题范文：7分考生思路拓展

首先我们要准备几个考生自己比较常逛的网站，以学习资料、学习工具型网站为主，比如CNKI，如果是在职人员，那么可以选择求职网站、门户网站及在职培训网站等。重在查资料的过程而不是查了什么资料，考生在备考口语时要注意，口语内容的丰富度及细节决定了口语考试时的表现及分数。考生尽量选择可以提升丰富度的内容来准备。

在上网查资料这个话题中，有哪些可以挖掘的信息点呢?比如考生查找资料的动因，查找资料的困难度，网站信息的准确、权威性及如何使用相关网站等，都是可以拓展的内容。

举个例子，小站雅思君在写期末论文的时候，经常会去某学术网站查找相关资料，但某次老师布置的论文主题非常冷门，于是我在谷歌学术上输入了相关关键词，翻了好几页才找到匹配的信息，这家网站非常古老，但是有非常多的学术信息，对于我的论文帮助很大。于是我把这个网站安利给了很多同学。这家网站运营了快20年了，主要做的是古籍书的电子化和翻译，还提供下载服务，并且都是免费的，图书馆查不到的古籍资源，即使有资源也不能外借，但这个网站完美解决了我的问题，于是我当下就给这家网站捐款，并且成了他们的终身vip会员。

6.雅思口语精选话题篇六

Do you think history is important?

What historical event do you find most interesting?

Do you think the Internet is a good place to learn about history?

说到历史，我们并不陌生，因为几乎每个人从小就学习历史。According to Wikipedia, History is the study of the past, particularly how it relates to humans. 也就是说，历史是对过去的研究，尤其是和人相关的研究。

历史在人类社会的发展过程中，起到至关重要的作用。它告诉我们我们是谁，我们来自哪;它让我们穿越时间和空间去思考过去发生了什么，我们从中能学到什么;它使我们更好的了解这个世界。The history plays a vital role in the development of society. It gives us an insight into who we are and where we come from; it helps us stretch our perspective across time and space to think about what happened in the past and what we can learn from the past; it provides us with a chance to understand the world.

1. Do you like to learn about history?

这是一道喜欢或者不喜欢类的题目，首先我们来学习一下表达‘喜欢’的语言，题目中的like可以替换成be interested in; be into; be fond of; 或者用I find something interesting.不喜欢除了用dislike以外，还可以替换成hate; loathe; be fed up with; be sick of.

关于这道题，通常情况下，我们会回答喜欢，或者不喜欢。注意，答案尽量以Yes, I do.的形式出现，而不是单独的yes。同时也可以替换成Yes, very much so; Yes, definitely; Yes, absolutely等表达。同样，否定的答案，可以用Not really; Not exactly; 或者是，No, it’s not my kind of thing来代替。

若该题目的答案是喜欢，那么我们需要在表明倾向后加以解释，通常是给出原因或例子。除了以上所讲到的历史的作用外，喜欢了解历史的原因还可以是：The historical events are very interesting(历史事件非常有趣);It can make us wise(使人明智)等。

若回答不喜欢，则也须讲明原因，或者讲明不喜欢的地方在哪。这里推荐给考生一个加分的表达：to have a love-hate relationship with something,意思是说对某物或是某件事情既爱又恨。回想我们不喜欢历史的原因，可能更多的是因为我们不喜欢以背诵为主的历史考试，而非我们对历史事件真的不感兴趣。(I’m more interested in historical stories rather than in details of names, dates and places.)

范例1: Yes, very much so. I’d say history is my real love. You know, it’s easy for me to get lost while reading historical books or watching some documentaries. I find history very interesting, mainly because it helps me stretch my perspective across time and space to think about what happened in the past and how our ancestors experienced things.

范例2: Well, to be honest, I have a love-hate relationship with history, generally because I’m much into the stories and the insights it gives me into the past, but I’m really struggling in the history exams which are usually centered around dates, names and places.

2. Do you think history is important?

关于这道题目，相信我们大多数考生都会给出肯定的回答：历史是重要的。其原因可以是以下几点：

It allows people to understand how culture, politics, economy, society and values developed. (它使得人们了解文化，政治，经济，社会以及价值是如何发展的)

History not only deals with the past but also with how the past led to the present. (历史不仅是关于过去，还关于过去如何导致了现在)

It tells us what happened in the past, so that we avoid repeating mistakes. (他告诉我们过去发生了什么，以帮助我们避免重复错误)

范例：Yes, I think so. History not only deals with the past, but also with how the past led to the present. So it allows people to understand how culture, politics, society and values developed. More importantly, since it tells us what happened in the past, we could avoid repeating mistakes.

3. Do you think you can learn history from films or TV programs?

了解历史的方式有很多，比如看电影，读书，看纪录片，参观历史景点，上历史课等。(There are many ways to learn about history, such as watching films, reading books, watching documentaries, visiting historical sites, and attending history classes. )。至于哪一种才是了解历史最好的方式(the best way to learn history)，每个人心中的答案各不相同。

这道题目是问，我们是否可以通过看电影或者电视节目这种方式来了解历史。目前，我们的电影类型有很多，比如comedy(喜剧)，action movies(动作片)，science fiction films(科幻片)，martial arts films(功夫片)，romance films(爱情片)，war movies(战争片)等等，至于电视节目，种类更是繁多，常见的有reality shows(真人秀)，talent search(选人才节目)，talk shows(谈话类节目)，variety shows(文艺晚会)，sitcoms(情景喜剧)等等。这些影片或者电视节目多多少少的涉及了一些历史，然而它们的主要目的还是以娱乐和教育为主(entertaining and educational)，以讲述历史为目的还要属documentaries(纪录片)。

回到题目，这是一道是非疑问类的题目，我们的答案可以是肯定的，否定的或者不一定的。然而通过上面的分析，这道题目回答No或It depends可能更容易一些。原因可能是有些电影或是电视节目会根据剧情需要对历史进行改编(Some historical events might be rewritten by editors to satisfy the plot)，每部电影或者电视节目会站在各自不同的角度看待历史，我们容易受电影或节目中人物和剧情的影响(They may show the history from different perspectives, so that we are easy to be influenced by the characters and plots.)，因此我们并不总是能够从电影和电视节目中了解到历史，然而记录片除外，因为其涉及的内容主要是历史或科学(Documentaries mainly deal with history or science)。因此，从纪录片中，我们比较容易了解真正的历史。

范例：It depends. It depends on what the movie or program is. I mean, we usually watch some movies and TV programs in which some historical events are rewritten to satisfy the plots. In this case, I don’t think we can learn the real history. However, we may learn some from documentaries, which are particularly deal with historical issues or science.

4. Do you think the Internet is a good place to learn about history?

同样，这也是一道是非疑问类的题目，无论我们的答案是肯定的还是否定的，都需要有充分的支持。例如，这道题目你可以回答‘是’(Yes, I think so; Yes I guess so; Yes sort of)，然后在给出理由，可以是网络资源充分，且免费，查阅方便等等(give a convenient access to information on almost everything)。所以你经常到什么样的网站上去浏览什么样的历史知识。

除此之外，你还可以给出否定的答案(No, I don’t think so; No, I don’t think it’s necessarily the case.)，然后给出原因，可能是因为网络信息并不总是可靠或者客观(not always reliable or objective),也可能是因为网络当中充斥着大量的误导或虚假或歪曲的信息(be awash with some misleading or false or distorted information)，还有可能是因为网络上信息量过于庞大导致很难找到真正有用可靠的信息(With so much information in the website, people may find it difficult to search for the useful and reliable information which they really need)。因此我们应当慎重使用网络信息(be careful in using the information on the internet)

范例1：Yes, I guess so. It’s mainly because the Internet gives us a convenient access to information on almost everything we need. So I usually go to some news and education websites to read some information about history or other things.
