在雅思考试口语Part 2的媒体类话题里面,总是出现什么网站啦,App啦电影啦之类的东西。请大家仔细想想哦,无论我们要说的是哪个网站、App或是电影,是不是都可以在百度百科里面找到它们的介绍呢?
那么同样的道理啊,我们也可以在wikipedia里面找到它们的英文介绍哦!(不用怀疑,维基百科连“光棍节”都收录了,媒体类的其他主题肯定也找得到的。)
所以没事儿的时候鼓励使用维基百科作为备考工具,摘出适合自己的语料,整合到我们的答案中去。维基百科英文地址:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Main_Page
除了维基百科,wikiHow也是一个超级可爱的网站,它们的slogan是“We’re trying to help everyone on the planet learn how to do anything.”特别像百度知道…… 它的网址:http://www.wikihow.com/Main-Page
下面我们就来看看如何用这个网站,来搞定一类话题:健康!
最近的机经里有一道题让大家写在杂志或者网络中看到的有关健康的文章,我们只需要在搜索栏里输入keep fit,就可以看到它给出的三个steps。下面我们结合一下文章里给出的素材,整理一下答案:
Once I read an article online titled How to keep fit. It said staying fit is a great bonus to life and can lead us to be a happy and healthier person. And the author introduced several helpful strategies that are illustrated with interesting pictures, which makes it pretty readable.
If I remember right, there are 3 things we need to do that are crucial to a healthy lifestyle: exercising, maintaining a balanced diet and gaining willpower and motivation. Actually most of the stuff in the article is common sense, like the things we can do to work out more, no matter it’s at home, at the gym or outside. And it suggests that we should come up with a plan and stick to it. Also, don’t compare ourselves to others and don’t let anyone bring us down. And we should have belief in ourselves that we can achieve whatever goal we have set.
But there’s one tip that I think is quite useful. It said it’s really important to avoid skipping meals. I used to think that I can lose weight by skipping lunch or dinner but that is inaccurate according to this article, ‘cause this decreases the speed of our metabolism and can result in losing the nutrition our body needs.
Personally I think this article is quite practical. The methods it introduced are very detailed, so it’s pretty easy to follow. And it’s really encouraging, that’s why I could remember it so well.
其实除了以上两个网站,还有很多有用的论坛,大家平时上网玩耍的时候,不妨多多发现,多多积累,多多应用。祝大家早日告别雅思!
