第一篇:雅思口语part1姓名类话题
雅思口语part1姓名类话题
雅思口语part1姓名类话题是雅思口语中必考的话题之一。所以考生们需要对其深入了解。即使在雅思口语备考的过程中,考生基本上都会接触这类话题,但总是会因为其比较简单而忽视,从而导致口语考试开场便失利。因此今天小编为大家带来比较全面的话题内容分析,希望大家能够关注。
首先,来看看姓名类话题一般都涉及哪些问题?
Names
> Do you like your name?
> Who give you your name?
> What names are most common in your hometown?
> Do you have any special traditions about naming children?
„„
对于这类问题看起来其实都是比较简单的,最重要的是思路如何展开:
首先,当问到你的名字或谁为你取得名字时,可以先介绍自己的名字;然后介绍你名字的特点以及所赋予的意义(起名字的人对你的期望和美好的憧憬);第三步可以介绍名字对你个人的特别意义和重要性(因为一般会问到是否会改名字或者是否想过改名字等问题),但是一定要赘述啰嗦尽量直奔主题,可以说说你为什么喜欢你的名字,有什么特别的价值和情感色彩,以及对你的影响等等,理由可以很具体。如果还有时间,最后可以介绍一下在你的家乡起名字的风俗和传统特点,有时候考官也会问到。
而在此类话题中大家要明白一些常用的问题表达,看起来是不同的问题其实目的都是相同的,自然考官想要的答案也是一样的:
1.What is your full name?
What’s your name?
How should I address you?
How should I call you?
2.Who gave you your name?
Who gave this name to you ?
Does your name have any particular meaning?
3.Do you like your name?
Would you like to change your name?
Have you ever changed any name before?
Do you want to change your name before?
4.In your country, do people feel that their name is very important?
Who usually names babies in your country?
Do you have any special traditions about naming children in your hometown?
下面根据具体的问题及答案来系统的看一下整个话题:
1.What is your full name? How should I address you?
My full name is XXX.And my English name is Jennie.You can call me Jennie.提示:回答姓名虽然是很简单的问题,但是考生要通过简单的扩展展现出自己与小学生英文水平的不同。很多人把全名full(短音)name念成傻瓜名字fool(长音)name而贻笑大方。在这里考生没有必要大做文章,只要讲清楚姓名就可以。同时因为大多数考官不太会念中文名字,所以最好给出英文名字。
2.Does your name have any special meaning or significance?
Yes, it does have a special meaning.Literally it means to travel as far as beyond the stars.Strategy:在这里可以运用一点点小的技巧。为了从众多考生中脱颖而出,我们可以在准备充分的基础上加上一点点新意。充分发挥想象力,比如说:我们就可以讲这个姓名是算命先生给的,并且有了这个名字就可以嫁个老公:What's more, this name was given by a fortune-teller and he said with this name I would marry a great guy.提示:其实不知道自己姓名的意思也没关系。只要坦诚的告诉考官就可以。但是不可以简单的说“I don't know”,而应该做合理的猜测以展现自己出自己流利的英文表达。但是在猜测的时候,考生可以充分的发挥想象力,没有必要长篇大论。如:I don't really know.It is given by my grandfather.I guess it means to travel as far as beyond the starts, because he also wanted me to become a great and successful person.3.Have you ever changed your name? Why or why not?
No, I haven't.I'm very happy about my Chinese name.And I guess I am never going to change it.Well, yes.The previous name I had just sounds so silly.It is even close to the Chinese word for “baboon”.So in order to avoid continuing embarrassing myself, I changed it.And now I'm happy about my current name.Notes:这道题通常是为下面的题目作铺垫。有两种答题的方向,考生可以自己做出选择。
Do Chinese people like changing their names? Why or why not?
In my personal opinion, generally Chinese people don't like changing their names, because to most people names are just symbols, though some people do believe names can affect the course of their life.In that case, if they are not content with who they are or what they have, they may change their names.What kind of people like changing their names?
Well, generally Chinese people don't like changing their names.But if they do, they must believe names are important to them, more than just symbols, or somehow carries a significant meaning to them.Among them, of course, some people are just superstitious.名字对大多数中国人来说确实只是一个符号。但是如果名字对一个人有特别的含义则有可能促使人改名字。
4.What's their purpose in changing their names?
It is hard to say.But as far as I know there are two major purposes.Number one, people change their names to make their names sound better.Number two, they change their names in order to change their destiny, because they believe names can affect the course of their life, no matter it is superstitious belief or just a willful thought.Well, this is a big question.As far as I know, I don't think Chinese people like to change their names often.Because most people believe names are just symbols.They don't change anything.And destiny is in their own hands to make.Notes:该题目与前一道题目形成对比,前一道题目是个人的行为,本题目涉及的是群体的行为。姓名的改变通常由于以下一些原因:
1、声音不好听或拗口
2、与其他词(通常不是好词)谐音
3、迷信,认为改变姓名可以改变运道等。
5.In your culture, do women change their names when they get married?
I know it is quite common for women to take on their spouse's family name in other cultures.But in my culture, that is not the case—women often keep their maiden name even after getting married.But the children will follow the father's surname.Notes:女子出嫁后而不随夫姓,这是中国很普遍的现象。而国外却大多与此相反。考生可以采取中外对比的方式回答问题。
从这些问题我们可以总结如下:在回答第一部分的问题时,考生不要只给考官一个“YES”或“NO”的答案,或是采用“点头摇头术”的交流方式。考生只有在连续用英语回答的前提下才能使雅思考官对其英语的驾驭能力进行评估、打分。所以在雅思口语考试的环节中,“Something is better than nothing!”是永恒的王道。
第二篇:雅思口语话题:电影类
环球雅思口语老师给大家带来关于电影类的口语范文一篇,大家可以练习起来囖~ Do you like watching movies? / How often do you go to the cinema?
Definitely, watching movies is my cup of tea.You know, I'm always busy in studying.But I will go to the cinema as often as possible, maybe once every other week because it is one of my favourite ways to relax.I believe films are a wonderful form of art.Many of my friends have the same habit, so we always go to Wanda International Cinema on weekends together, which I think is the best cinema in Beijing.Why do you like to watch films?
Firstly, I think watching films is a good way to relax.You know, when watching a film, I will throw all of my emotion to the story so that I can forget nearly everything about myself, especially the troubles.Also, I can learn many things from the roles in films, for example, I learned how to join forces to fight again devil from my favourite movie.Do you like to watch films in the cinema or at home?
I prefer watching films in the cinema, absolutely.You know, the atmosphere and the sound effect are prefect in the cinema, which you cannot feel at home, facing a small screen, especially for scientific and horror.So you can understand the story and the roles' emotion better, also you are able to learn more from the films.What kind of films do you like?
I love fancy film the most.They are full of magic, imagination and creativity.I believe only imagination can make our real life more colorful.My favorite movie is , which is typical of this kind of movies.I admire J.K.Rowling, the producer of it;I really wonder how those wonderful ideas came from her head!
Who is your favorite movie star?
My favorite movie star is Yang Ziqiong, who is very famous not only in China but also in Hollywood.She is one of the earliest actresses accepted by Hollywood and became popular in the world.She's good at martial arts.She's not very beautiful but her kongfu is really amazing, quick, clear-cut and powerful.I think she's the proud of China, not only for her position in Hollywood, but also because she spread Chinese traditional kongfu in the world.What's the difference between American films and Chinese films?
I think the biggest difference lies in the purpose of the film, result from the level of freedom.You know, most of Chinese films just describe an ordinary story and focus on teaching the audience some principles, because the government controls the contents of films stringently.But because of freedom, the purpose of most American films is to give audience an impressive shock, and then earn enormous profits.
第三篇:雅思口语Part 2最难的话题
雅思口语Part 2最难的话题
本文由新航道雅思整理发布
雅思口语一项是考生们难准备的一项考试,因为它要求考生的综合能力很强,所以准备的时候考生们都会参考已考话题,和预测的话题来进行最后的冲刺,今天就为大家总结了雅思口语Part 2中最难的话题,有些话题相对抽象,让考生不知道该怎么样准备。现在就来了解一下吧:
我们发现Part 2中考生们普遍认为的难题主要难在以下三个方面:
1.考生对该话题缺少熟悉度;
2.考生对该话题的理解容易造成偏差;
3.话题本身相对抽象。
不熟悉的话题如并未亲身经历过的事件或并未拥有过的东西常常会造成考生最害怕的结果:无话可说,难以开口;如果对话题的理解有偏差,即便一直在说,也会文不对题,且中途无人指正,容易越说越偏,找不到重点;相对抽象的话题易使考生说不到具体的点,考官听不到“故事”,分数自然也就上不去。下面列出今年考试中许多考生心中Part 2的十道“最难”题,不妨来探讨一下它们的难点所在和应对方法。
NO.1 A Good Law
Describe a(piece of)(good)law in your country.You should say:
· what the law is
· how you first learned about this law
· who benefits from this law(or, who is affected by this law)
and explain why you think this is a good law
话题类别:Object
难点解析:众多考生公认的难题。平时即使比较关注法律,但真的要具体去谈,即使用中文有条有理地说出来也会有难度。相对Part 3可能由此展开的法律的重要性、公平性、适用性等较概括的讨论,Part 2的具体化让考生们尤为头疼。
备考策略:首先可以避免谈到那些广而深的法律如刑法,因为这样的法律既不容易说清楚,也不容易说具体。其次,一些全世界都较为普遍的法律法规如交通法可供考生选择,因
为它们相对比较融入自己的生活,也就比较好发挥。当然,选择比较有中国特色的法律来展开就更好,比如计划生育政策”one-child policy”,在中国人口众多的基本国情下,它所带来的好处以及受益人也会相对好描述,考官也可以从中获取一些新的信息。
NO.2 A Historic Site
Describe an interesting historic site(in your country)that you visited.You should say:
· where it was
· what you saw at this site(or, what it looked like)
· what role it played in history
and explain what interested you about that place
话题类别:Place
难点解析:对于历史建筑的描述,在强调它的历史作用时多少会涉及到历史知识以及一些专有名词的表达。而不管是选择中国的还是国外的历史建筑,鉴于平日里谈论得极少,考试前没有足够的准备就很难开口。
备考策略:考前可以结合其它描述地点或建筑的话题一起准备:Describe a museum/an old building/your favorite building/an important traditional building等,例如北京故宫里的建筑,即是古老而传统的建筑,又是很重要的博物馆,也可以是自己最喜欢的建筑。甚至还可以把它放到Describe the best tourist attraction in China,或者可以描述里面的an interesting exhibition,所以只要提前做好充足的功课,遇到其它问题也都可以迎刃而解。
NO.3 A Success
Describe a particular success you would like to achieve(in the near future).You should say:
· what it is
· how difficult you think it will be
· what you should do to prepare for this
and explain why you want to succeed in doing this
话题类别:Object
难点解析:看似抽象的题目,其实问题是非常具体的。考生往往容易从抽象的地方入手,譬如先谈自己对成功的定义和理解,导致在有限的时间内却不能将自己短期的目标阐述得详细和具体。
备考策略:人们怎样定义成功其实通常都是在Part 3里对于该话题的延续性讨论,在Part 2里一定要根据题目所给的线索开门见山地提出自己的成功目标,譬如想要获得学校的某个奖项,或者想要完成工作中的某个项目,然后描述目标的困难性何在,如何去准备,以及实现这个成功后的意义等。这样话题的描述才会有完整性可言。
NO.4 A Place Not Polluted
Describe a place which is not polluted.You should say:
· where this place is
· what it looks like
· what kind of place is not polluted
and explain what you think about pollution
话题类别:Place
难点解析:如今,在我们工作和生活的环境当中,要描述一个被污染的地方容易,但要描述一个没有被污染的地方就比较难了。众所周知,现在的环境污染问题之严重,乃至于大家都已经习惯了,平日里很难接触亦或是有机会去到更像是世外桃源般的没有被污染过的地方。
备考策略:从题目的细节可以看出,这样的地方也并不是一定要自己亲自去过才能描述的,杂志上,电视节目上曾经介绍过像原始氏族部落聚居的周边地区或无人居住的自然区域都可以描述。考生还可以探讨这些地方没有被污染到的原因,如何保护它们继续不受污染等相对宽泛些的方面。
NO.5 A Stage of Your Life
Describe an important stage of your life/an enjoyable stage of your life.You should say:
· how old you were
· where you were living at the time
· what you were doing during this stage
and explain why you think this was an important/enjoyable stage of your life话题类别:Event
难点解析:谈人生的某个阶段其实是相对笼统的话题,但考官需要的却是具体的回答,能够分享不同考生的不同人生。但若考生只是千篇一律地描述说自己的童年时光是快乐的,无忧无虑的,因此非常重要,而没有精彩的故事跟考官分享,那就没有达到要求。
备考策略:以前也曾考过诸如某段时光的话题,而且相对来说还比较具体,如:Describe the most enjoyable moment in your childhood/Describe a busy time in your life等等,里面考生基本都会谈到某件或某些具体的事,而这些其实都可以作为人生某个阶段的影射,描述完某些具体时刻发生的具体事情,再来总结在人生的童年阶段是无忧无虑的快乐,因此对以后开朗乐观性格的形成产生重要影响,又或是在刚毕业时是充实的忙碌,因此为事业的发展打下良好的基础等就更有说服力了。
以上就是雅思口语Part 2最难话题,可以看出,虽然整体难度是在雅思口语三个部分中还是比较适中的,但是雅思口语Part 2还是要求学生有比较强的自己扩展话题的能力,这样才有可能在雅思口语Part 2获得高分。

第五篇:雅思口语季节类话题(本站推荐)
季节和天气一直是雅思口语的传统话题。在第一部分几乎是每次必考,虽然这类卡片在第二部分的出现率不是非常高,但也会不时突袭。从另一个角度来说,季节和天气的谈论可以贯穿到很多考题之中去论述。比如应对关于体育运动的卡片时,我们也可以略带描述一下做该运动的适宜天气。上海环球雅思口语老师带来关于雅思口语季节类话题。
最近口语机经中也考到了季节的一道题目
Describe your favourite season or time of the year.You should say:
what season(or time of the year)it is
what the weather is like at this time
what you usually do at this time
and explain why you enjoy that season or time of the year.在回答这个问题时,除了上面介绍的各个季节的特点,还可以加一些描述性句子。
例如, A typical Chinese winter would around __ months between ___ and ____.The reason I’ve chosen winter as my favorite season is because I like ______.先从天气的季节开始 — spring, summer, autumn, and winter.谈到春天,大家想到的是一幅万物复苏,花开草绿的美丽景色,那怎么用英语来表达呢? 万物复苏--everything comes back to life.花开草绿-flowers are blooming and trees turn green, the scenery is very spectacular.我们还可以说到春日里温暖的阳光: It’s warm enough to sit outside in the sunshine.谈到夏天,大家首先想到的是热-hot.除了hot 之外我们可以用 unbearable hot, scorching(灼热的)来表达难以形容之热。夏天可以不用像冬天一样穿一层层的衣服(layers of clothes), 可以穿一些简单的 shorts and T-shirt.更好的是夏天人们可以参加很多的户外活动 – there are more things to do in summer, such as going to beach, amusement parks, have barbecue parties.It’s so energetic and vibrant.秋天给人的印象是美丽的落叶。In autumn, the leaves fall off the trees/the leaves begin to change color, transforming landscape into an array of autumn colors.另外谈到秋天我们还想到的是秋高气爽的天气,秋高气爽我们可以简答得表达为 “the sky is crystal clear”.大家还知道秋天是收获的季节,“Autumn is also the season of harvest “.既不太热也不太冷,气温很适宜,让人感到很舒服,”It’s neither too hot nor too cold.The temperature is mild and pleasant, making people feel comfortable”.很多同学喜欢冬天的原因是因为冬天有美丽的雪景,用英文表达即是: It often snows;we have periods of quite heavy snowball.Last winter I remember looking out of the window one morning and seeing everything covered in a layer of white.冬天天气很冷(freezing cold), 天气经常在零度以下 During those really wintry months, the temperature drops below zero.另外很多重要的节日在冬季,例如 Christmas, spring new year.
