第一篇:雅思作文 part2
In some countries young people are encouraged to work or travel for a year between finishing high school and starting university studies.Discuss the advantages and disadvantages for young people who decide to do this.It is quite common these days for many young people to work or travel for a year before starting university education, and I believe that this trend has more drawbacks than benefits for them.In fact, most of rich students have money to travel, but poorer students always choose to work and become economically independent for a period of time or in order to gain university tuition.Some people believe young people could expend their views, broaden their horizons and make them more independent then before through working or traveling for one year.More specifically, these experiences provide young people with more opportunities to socialize with others and help them have interpersonal skills sharpened.That would be a great fortune for them throughout their studies and even works.However, it is certainly with some dangers to leave campus in their golden age for the acquisition of knowledge.Indeed, some of them may drop out of schools, which makes them ending up doing some labor works.In addition, they may tend to continue their careers rather than to gain an academic qualification.Furthermore, they are still immature to tell the right from wrong.Some of them may be misled by others, to do something wrong or even to commit crimes.In conclusion, working or traveling a year may bring many benefits.Nevertheless, having a university degree is essential to their lives.

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。

朋友
Are your friends mostly your age or different ages? Most of my friends are about the same age as me because we met at school or university.I've got one or two friends who are older or younger that I met through work. Do you usually see your friends during the week or at weekends? I tend to meet up with my friends at weekends because everyone's too busy during the week. The last time you saw your friends, what did you do together? It was one of my friends' birthday last weekend.Six of us went out for a meal to celebrate. In what ways are your friends important to you?
I think it's important to have friends that you can talk to and share experiences with.My friends make me laugh, but I know I can also rely on them whenever I need help or support.名字
How did your parents choose your name? To be truthful, I’m not sure how they chose it;I’ve never asked them.I suppose it was just a name that they both liked, and maybe they thought it suited me. Does your name have any special meaning? I think it might do, but I don’t know what that meaning is;I’ve never looked it up.Maybe I’ll google it later today;you’ve made me curious to find out! Is your name common or unusual in your country? Yes, it’s quite a common name.I remember that there were two other people with the same name as me in my class at school. If you could change your name, would you? Not at all, I definitely wouldn’t.My name is part of my identity now, and it would feel strange to suddenly change it.I don’t think my friends and family would like that either.摄影
Do you like to take photographs? Why? If it were 3 to 4 years ago the answer would be a big no.But now it has become one of my hobbies and I’m actually thinking of learning more about it.I had no idea what I can do with my iPhone until I learned to make use of its wonderful camera as well as some miracle apps.Unlike some people, I indeed want my photos to look unique, lively and a little bit professional. Do you prefer to take photos yourself or to have other people take your photos? Why? It would be way more comfortable taking photos myself, as I can see crystal-clear how ridiculous my face expression looks like or if there’s something on my hair or stuck between my teeth.And in case it’s a scenery photo, I can apply the techniques I’ve learned to produce stunning photos. Crystal-clear(adj.)=absolutely clear How long have you liked taking photographs? Just recently.As a final year student, I no longer can spend hours on drawing, reading or singing.Only photography which is way more instant suits me now to document my life.And as I enjoy my life on this campus, for example the road I walk to school everyday, the sunset, the rainbow, the trees, photography is the best way to store my memories. In what situations do you take photographs? As I’ve mentioned, I snap a photo of anything that catches my eyes when I’m in a good mood.So I take photos when my friends and I hang out or when I participate in social activities of the university and meet amazing people.However, when it comes to practicing for professional photography, I prefer taking photos of scenery and foods. What kind of photos do you like to take? Why? Food and scenery are definitely my inspiration.I just can’t sit still when beautiful breakfasts and stunning landscape keep appearing on my Instagram everyday.What is more, it is my natural instinct that helps me to go find the simple uniqueness of my university, namely the sunset, the lake, the trees and flowers and show people how beautiful my university is.However, I’m not good at taking photos of people so activities or street-life is not my style. How(why)did you become interested in photography? The situation was quite all of a sudden.I posted some scenery photos I took on the spur of the moment on Instagram and received lots of compliments, even from those whom I’m not following.Then I realized I should develop this skill, you know, should take it seriously and keep up the good work.And the more I learn about it, the more passionate I become. How often do you take photographs? Not too often I must say.Since I really don’t like posting boring photos with the same object all the time, so timing is everything.I believe my guts will know exactly when and how I should flick to produce high-quality photos. Do you prefer to take pictures of people or of scenery? I think I’m gonna go for taking scenery photos.As a beginner, the knowledge of human facial expression, the part that needs focus, the harmonization between them and their surroundings are a bit too advanced for me.I can’t really make the person in my photo become lively as I do with the scenery.Besides, looking at the beauty of nature and capturing it is kind of mind-purifying to me and is a good way to escape from the artificial world.So yeah, scenery is safer and more enjoyable. Who do you take photos of? Although I’m not good at taking photos of people, I do take selfies with new friends whom I meet when I participate in social activities.To me it’s more like a reminder or something to look back, reminding me that yeah, this time last year I went out, I met amazing people and had lots of fun. How do you keep your photos? Printing the photos out, making an album or sticking them on the wall for decoration sound so common and also interesting.But I don’t think photos are worth that much time and budget, unless what I captured is apparently important to me, otherwise I only keep them in my iPhone. Do you keep your photographs on your computer? I don’t think I need to do so.Firstly, because my memory is somewhat similar to goldfish memory, storing in different devices would drive me crazy.Plus, my iPhone has large memory storage so I think I won’t need computer for storage. Are there any photos on the walls of your house? Since my parents love decorating our house, putting photos nicely on the walls of my house is an essential part of their decoration style.Some photos go with frame or plastic cover, some are stuck directly onto the wall in heart-shaped.However, it’s quite ridiculous for me to see myself grinning everywhere in the house so I told them to let me decorate my room on my own. Do you frame(or have you framed)any of your photos? Although I don’t usually print my photos out, I think I would store some photos of me with my high school friends or me with my family.And framing helps preventing scratching and is good for long-term storage, so this is probably a good alternative beside albums. Do you prefer to send postcards to people or to send photos that you took yourself?(Why?)Firstly, the postcards are made of thicker paper, which makes it way more convenient for long-term storage as well as decoration.Secondly, the process of sending and receiving postcards appeared to be simpler and faster compared to photos.For those reasons I think I probably go with sending postcards.
