雅思口语话题推荐:城市好还是郊区好
雅思口语话题向来变化万千,其中生活类是最常考的话题之一,而目前在生活类话题中出现频率最高的一个方面就是关于城市和城市生活的问题。通过对近期常考话题的密切关注我们发现,无论是第一、第二还是第三部分,都涵盖着关于城市的话题,尤其是第二、三两部分。今天,天道留学小编就为大家详细地补充一些必备又不乏新意的专业表达,使考生们对于“城市”的话题更有话说,更有“新”话说。
关于城市,雅思口语常考查的内容有介绍一个城市(去过或没去过),大城市和小城市的区别,城市和农村的区别,城市生活的优缺点等等。通过观察我们发现,考生们对于这类话题的表现差强人意,原因在于不知如何表达,甚至不知道说什么。接下来天道小编就详细的来补充一下关于城市的知识。就城市分类而言,题目中常用的词就是big
city 和small city,而除了这些,metropolis大都市是最常用的表达,也可以用发达 (developed) 或不发达 (less
developed) 来划分城市。在中国,我们还分一线 (first-tier)、二线 (second-tier) 和三线 (third-tier)
城市。除此之外,我们还给城市冠了好听的名字,比如City of Perpetual spring(春城)等。当然,我们也会对城市进行排名,比如Liveable
City(宜居城市), Garden City(花园城市)等。
除了城市的名称,关于城市的一些基本构成也是众多烤鸭发愁的一个区块。常用的表达有:city
hall(市政府),city(城市),municipal(市政的),municipality(市政当局),suburb(郊区),countryside(乡村),administrative
district(行政区),residential area(住宅区),commercial
district(商业区),slums(贫民区);关于城市中的一些基本设施和服务,包括:post office(邮局),public
lavatory(公共厕所),public telephone(公用电话),shopping centre(商场),snack bar(小吃店),stock
exchange(股票交易所),traffic light(红绿灯),art gallery(美术馆),botanical
garden(植物园),employment
agency(职业介绍),bank(银行),bookstore(书店),court(法院),highway(公路),motorway(高速公路),hospital(医院),junk
shop(旧货店),library(图书馆),museum(博物馆),newsstand(报摊),port(港口),restaurant(餐馆),skyscraper(摩天大楼),stadium(体育场),station(车站),theatre(电影院戏院)。
除了基本的构成之外,雅思口语最常考的内容还有对大小城市的优缺点做出比较,这里给大家列出几条供参考,大家应根据自己的自身经历做出取舍,自由搭配。一些具体的表达方式如形容词或词组考生也应牢记。
Pros of big cities:
Ø Big money at work, first-class education, a large transport network, fancy
restaurants and luxurious townhouses are definitely the charms(魅力)of big
cities.
Ø Life in big cities is endlessly colourful(无尽精彩)as you have a wide range of
entertainment.
Ø This city is steeped in(沉浸在)time-honored(历史悠久的)traditions.
Ø It’s prosperous(繁荣的).
Ø This city is well-known for its architectural heritage(建筑遗产).
Ø The cityscape(城市风景)is gorgeous(华丽的,漂亮极了的)and there are tons of towering
skyscrapers(高耸的摩天大楼).
Ø High-rise buildings(高城建筑)are sprouting up(涌现)all over the city.
Ø This city is like a magnet(磁铁)for tourists.
Cons of big cities:
Ø The air is so smoggy(烟雾重的).
Ø Lots of people there suffer from respiratory diseases(呼吸系统疾病).
Ø The traffic is always bumper-to-bumper(保险杠对保险杠,指非常拥挤)during rush hours.
Ø The cost of living is sky-high(极高的).
Ø The economy is in a slump(消沉,指经济不景气).
Ø I can’t stand the hustle and bustle(拥挤喧闹)there.
Ø Some areas are pretty run-down(破旧的).
Ø It’s densely-populated(人口密集的).
Pros of small cities:
Ø Live a quiet and peaceful life.
Ø Get away from the hustles and bustles(拥挤喧闹).
Ø Small cities are of sufficient natural resources.
Cons of small cities:
Ø Tons of small cities in China are confronted with serious brain
drain(人才流失).
Ø A rising number of chemical factories built in small countries and
countryside arouse grievous(严重的)water degradation(水质下降).
Ø Average income(收入水平)in small cities falls far behind that in big
cities.
Ø The general public service(整体社会服务水平)in small cities is lower than that in
most big cities.
除此之外,关于大城市,肯定有很多同学对其高昂的房价有话要说。其实不光如此,之前在Part
3中就已经有同学碰到过关于中国城市房价的问题了。对于很多年轻人而言,无论是收入水平、城市规模还是社会服务等,first-tier
city(一线城市)都有着巨大吸引力。然而,housing price(房产价格)的疯长,许多原来期望在first-tier
city发展的年轻人不得不转战second-tier city和third-tier city。许多不甘离开梦想之地的人或成为mortgage
slave(房奴),或成为ant tribe(蚁族)。另外,一线城市的高消费水平也迫使许多人成为moonlight
clan(月光族)。想结婚而又无力买房的人只能选择naked wedding(裸婚)。
最后,天道小编将结合上述素材,针对Part 3的一个高频问题作出示范:
Q: Do you prefer to live in a big city or small city?
A: Personally, small city seems more preferable. I like living in small
cities for its slow life pace and quietness. I mean I don't have to suffer the
hustle and bustle. So I’m able to enjoy cosiness. According to my experience
living in a big city for three years, living in big cities is just stressful.
You know, the sky-high housing price and fierce competition propel many
youngsters like me to move out of big cities though there are completed public
services; otherwise we’ll end up with being a mortgage slave and having a naked
wedding.
以上答案就套用了前面讲过的表达方式,但是一定要改编,才能使学来的东西变成自己的。
通过以上的补充素材我们发现,关于城市有很多东西可以说,而不是停留在表面的分析和简单的表达上。希望考生们从现在开始,把上述材料都牢记,再遇到相同问题的时候活用所学,定能使考官印象深刻。
雅思口语怎么复习?
雅思口语备考第一阶段:与考官聊天
备考第一阶段的关键在于熟练和自然,考生应尽量熟悉该阶段的话题,并能针对每个题目自然而流畅的进行回答。回答时切记不要只回答yes或者 no,或者很简短的答案,要主动的去提供附加信息,以表示自己愿意并且能够进行交流。第一阶段的话题和具体的题目可以在网上找到,建议两者结合使用,以求全面。整个第一阶段就像朋友间的聊天一样,考生可以利用这段时间去适应考官的口音和节奏,并放松自己,尽快进入状态。
雅思口语备考第二阶段:精心准备话题
第二阶段的题目卡较多,内容较广泛。考生如果有足够的时间,可以在精心准备几个典型题目的同时,对其他题目也稍加准备,以免考试时遇到陌生题目手忙脚乱。由于第二阶段准备时间有限,只有1分钟,因此在拿到题目卡后应该在几秒钟内迅速做出决策,确定自己说什么,然后利用剩下的时间在考官提供的草稿纸上做点笔记。在做个人陈述时是可以参考笔记的。小马过河认为如果拿到的题目卡是事先准备过的,也要再仔细的分析一下其中的子话题,看跟自己准备的题目是否有出入,并在笔记上做点提纲,以避免给考官留下背诵文稿的印象。
雅思口语备考第三阶段:提出观点并证明
第三阶段的题目总的来说是围绕第二阶段的话题来进行的,比如,如果第二部分要求考生描述喜欢的一个房间或公寓,那第三部分问题会紧紧围绕住宿和生活方式这样的主题的。

雅思口语话题描述一首有趣的歌曲
雅思口语话题题目:
Describe an interesting song you like.
You should say:
What it is
Which country the song comes from
What story the song tells
And explain why you think it is interesting.
雅思口语话题参考文本:
I would like to describe a song called "Hey Jude", which was firstly sung by the English rock band the Beatles. Actually it's a song McCartney wrote to cheer up a 5-year old boy Julian, during his parents' divorce. The song was first released in August 1968 as the first single from one of the Beatles' records. The song reached the top of both British and American charts. Then, it became an uplifting ballad that's inspired the masses for decades.
I was also touched by the song the first time I heard it in my high school. I especially like the lyrics, which carry an encouraging message, like when he sings "make a sad song and make it better". It taught us to be positive and optimistic when things aren't going well. The lyrics and the tune always spark a bit of romance in my heart. I tended to listen to this song when I came across all kinds of frustration and failures in my life. It's really a wake-up call for me and could drag me out of tough situations. Nowadays, I can't help singing along with the song once it plays. It also had been covered by a series of singers worldwide. Interestingly, it was sung by 80,000 people in the stadium during the opening ceremony of the 2012 London Olympic Games. The scene was spectacular, hard to describe in words!
雅思口语高分词汇以及表达:
1.cheer up 等于 encourage, 表示鼓励某人,大家要注意在考场上,可以尽量多地使用这样的 短语 表达(雅思口语)
2.release,我们一般说歌曲发行时要用到这个动词,first single 表示第一首单曲(雅思口语)
3. 这里的 chart 表示音乐排行榜,比如我们知道的 Spotify 或者是 Billboard(雅思口语)
4.reach the top of the chart 表示横扫榜单,当然还有一个同义替换词,chart buster(雅思口语)
5.uplifting ballad 指的是鼓舞人心的歌谣,我们要学会用这个词来替换 song(雅思口语)
6.carry an encouraging message 表示传递一种正能量,当我们描述电影或者是歌曲传递一种特殊的情绪时,要学会用 carry 这个动词(雅思口语)
7.spark a bit of romance 表示唤起内心的浪漫感觉,spark 作为动词,表示激起或者唤起(雅思口语)
雅思口语Part 2新题预测:一首有趣的歌
You should say:
What it is
Which country the song comes from
What story the song tells
And explain why you think it is interesting.
雅思口语Part 2 范文 :Both Of Us
主题:Both Of Us by BOB and Taylor Swift
口语part范文内容:这首歌是关于那些试图实现他们梦想的人。它讲述了他们的斗争,他们的情感,以及当世界拒绝他们时的感受。
I really love music and over the years there are lot many songs that have come up to inspire me and help me to get out of the rut that I am living in. But, the one song that I really fell in love and have enjoyed over the years is, “Both Of Us by BOB and Taylor Swift”.
The song is about the people who are trying to fulfill their dreams. It talks off their struggle, their emotions and how they feel when the world rejects them. The singer says that he is there for all of the people who are trying to fulfill their dreams. It is about how it is not about just lifting yourself from rut but also the people near you.
I love this song because in some ways it helps me to stay focused and move on towards my dreams. It is very motivating and the background music is amazing. I remember hearing this song on a loop when the days are tough and I am not able to do anything. Because it is on these days that I can fully relate with this song.
Most of the people hear to it, most probably the ones who are bothered about something or are trying hard to achieve something in their lives. It is that powerful, that strong, that you can actually feel powered hearing it.
雅思口语高分需要哪些通用礼仪
要重点注意的几个礼仪如下:
1、动作:同学们的眼睛千万不要晃,不要老眨眼,这是消极的表现,要不时面带笑容,看考官的鼻子,不要看眼睛,这样你会很紧张,你看考官的鼻子的地方,从他的角度看你是看着他的眼睛的。男女生挺直不能依靠椅子,男生双手要分别放在大腿,女生双手放在左大腿上,身体稍微有点倾斜。
2、手表:西方国家的人很看重“手表”,无论我在外交部,大使馆给国家领导人做翻译,还是跟外教一起聊英语教学,都发现他们很喜欢带表,他们称带表的人为“a man of time”(有时间观念的人),所以同学们考试时一定要带表。
3、颜色:颜色会使一个人的感觉变动,而如果全部同学都是穿白色或浅色的衣服,而你穿了黑色,那你就会给人耳目一新的感觉。在所有我接触过的考官,都喜欢一种颜色,那就是绿色,那是代表“love ,hope ,life and energy",并且澳大利亚的国色是绿色。我推荐大家穿绿色,蓝色和黄色。这样会让所有的外国考官都会喜欢。
4、结束:当考官最后说了一句:that's all。一般同学们都会说:thanks, goodbye. 这样的印象分也是很差的,一般第三部分的分数是等你出了门,考官才会写下去,所以最后的一句话往往是加分的。同学们牢记好三句话:thanks very much for your time ,and I enjoy taking with you . Have a good day ,__(加上考官的名字,并且握手)。 雅思口语的三部分,同学们都知道第一部分最简单,第二部分动用自己的 想象力 去描述,第三部分最难,但最关键的是第一部分,也就是从你进门那一刻开始。下面我与大家分享下外交级的礼仪,如何让考官非常喜欢你。下面的“T”代表考官,“S”代表你。 T:Come in please.(在门口叫你) S:thank you 后,轻声关门,马上走到考官前说:my name is _ x.(一定要说中文名,不能说英文名),然后马上请问对方的名字:how do you like me to address you ,sir?(这句话是外交级的语言,对方肯定会告诉你名字),假设考官说的是Ken, 你马上微笑的回答:Oh, Ken, (惊讶的表情),nice name, glad to meet you.(伸出手,要有力) 。 T:说完后考官肯定说thanks, 然后说sit down ,please. S:同学们不要马上坐下,因为当时考官还是站着的,你要说:you please.(你先请) 。
雅思口语高分需避免沉默
其一,面对很多话题,同学们只能说出寥寥数语,而且绝大多数同学所说的内容基本雷同。如a famous animal in China,中国学生的标准答案就是panda,而且关于panda,同学们除了说出It has white body and black eyes或者It's cute之外,几乎没有区别于其他同学的内容。
其二,在面对相当数量的话题时,同学们感到无话可说。例如a wedding you have attended,很多同学称自己没有参加过任何婚礼,导致在考场上语塞。
首先,同学们明白一个事实,那就是:雅思口语中未必一定要说真话。因为通常,真话是我们根本就不了解这个话题,就算能说出来,恐怕和其他学生也差不多,是一个既无趣又单调的答案。这样一个答案,在雅思考试中肯定不能获得理想的分数。所以,只要答案是合情合理,前后不矛盾,我们就可以使用。总之,在谈话中,我们要做的只是一个忠实的story teller。
所以说还是建议大家最好参加一些雅思口语辅导班,掌握更多的雅思口语技巧能够帮助大家取得更高的分数。
本着这样一个原则,我们就可以着手准备素材了。在这里谈几个准备的 方法 。
首先要学会做有心人,平时和同学、朋友聊天,要多注意收集他人的人生经历。比如一个同学绘声绘色地描述了他去云南游玩的经历,即便你本人没有去过云南,也可以把这一段话改编成一段出色的雅思口语trip题答案;
其次,如果确实对于某个话题感到无话可说。我们可以借助现在最为发达的网络平台来寻找答案。例如在准备describe a park这道题目的时候,南京同学往往会将目标锁定在Xuan Wuhu lake park上,所以我们会听到许多同学描述完全相同的事物,如There's a zoo indside of it, and there're different kinds of animal in it, such as…这样的描述确实难以令考官产生兴趣。那么如果我们借助网络来搜索答案,又可以得到什么结果呢?在Google或者维基 百科 (Wikipedia)中,我们输入关键词 Disneyland, California, 就能得到全部的关于加州迪斯尼的资料。从这个公园产生的背景,到这个公园各个部分的简介。比如关于其中一个叫做 Redwood Greek Challenge Trail的景点,我们得到了以下信息:
Redwood Creek Challenge Trail (opened February 8, 2001) : A play area for kids, featuring a Mount Shasta wilderness-like setting and suspension and wire bridges. It also features rock climbing and a Brother Bear scene cave. It is also designed for adventurous adults.
这段文字描述加上旁边配上的图片,能让我们清楚了解这一个景点的具体情况。那么我们稍稍将这段话做一点点改编和扩充,把它当作是我们自己的经历,就是一小段不错的谈话。
Well, I don't have a certain favorite attraction in particular, but if I have to say, I'd probably say it is Redwood Creek Challenge Trail. Actually, it's a play area for kids but it also attracts a young adult like me for its design. It is a mount shape background with a exciting suspension and wire bridge, and also a cute brother bear cave which even fascinates a lot of adults.
不难看出,上面一段口语答案和关于Xuan Wuhu Lake Park的描述,无论从评分的哪个角度,都是关于Disneyland的这一段获胜。
不过在网络搜索的过程中,切记三个原则,第一,搜索的关键词要具体不要抽象,如果搜索describe a park,就不如搜索一个具体的公园Disneyland得到的信息多;第二,得到了文字信息之后,一定要在资料的基础上进行改编,因为得到的资料是书面语,我们要将它修改成口语稿才能使用;第三,一定要反复对着镜子练习自己的说话方式,把这些 句子 熟练掌握,内化为自己的观点,并能把它自然地说出来,而不是“背”出来,如果考官发现是在背诵而不是叙述,肯定会给你一个很低的分数。

Sample answer:
The legendary song Annie's Song'by John Denver is a piece of music that I really like. I like this song so much that every time I listen to it,I get a fresh and inspiring feeling. This is probably the piece of song that I have listened several thousand times.
This is a song that always inspires me and I like the lyrics and the music of this song. John Denver and his band Beatles and their songs are in my favorite lists. The 'Annie's Song'is a piece of work that the world will revere for a long. This is one of the most rated songs of the world history and I like it for the magical tone it has.
I listen to music almost every day and this song is in my music player. So I would say I listen to this music one in every two days on an average.

雅思口语高分范文示例:
My mother often sang me a lullaby titled "Oh my sweet angel look the Moon has come to play with you…” in my bedtime and I have heard it so many times in my childhood that I can still remember it very vividly. This was a song usually famous in the rural area of our country that mothers often use to soothe the baby and to send them to sleep. It was an 8-10 lines song with great harmony and the way my mother sand it was extraordinary. It still echoes in my head and I miss those days.
I can remember my mother often sand this song till I got admitted in the school and I heard it from my father as well in my bedtime. I was pretty touched by the lyrics and in my childhood, I often imagined that the verses used in this song were true and would happen to me as well.
We often remember things from childhood especially the stories or songs we hear with great enthusiasm. This song was no exceptions. I heard it hundreds of times and as a child I fanaticized those things to be true. Thais is the main reason I still remember it. Maybe, someday when I will become a father/ mother, I will sing thins song to my children as well. This has in fact become a permanent memory and I still love the great and calming piece of music.
