雅思口语的命题,一般都不会特别具体,所以其实给了大家很大的发挥空间。命题人经常扔出一个大类的话题,比如各种trip话题(Describe a place you visited but only for a short period of time. Describe an educational trip you went on. A special journey/trip you would like to take in the future. A long journey/short trip you’d like to try again.等等),所以我们在备考的时候,可以跨类别合并话题,有些素材的用武之地,其实只需要稍加联想,就可以变成另一道题目的答案。
这里呢,给大家一个参考思路,看看如何把educational trip、educational TV program和important stage in your life捏到一起准备,用到的素材呢,就是新东方每年寒暑假都会组织的“游学”!
大体的思路就是,在游学的时候,参观了超赞的大学,看到了各种国内木有体验过的东东,然后一下子就开始雄心壮志,有了明确的人生目标,下定决心要考上这所大学,于是奋发图强,于是这趟trip特别educational,于是这个人生阶段可以用important来形容。
那么educational TV program怎么讲呢?就把游学所见所闻,变成TV show里面的介绍就可以了呗!下面是大家可能用到的表达和词语,大家自行串成答案吧,加油!
Global Study tour
游学
The vast campus really blew my mind at first sight.
我第一眼看到超大校园的时候简直震惊了
artificial lakes with swans 天鹅在人工湖里扑腾
It has become a landmark in this university with a strong mixture of modern and traditional flavor.
它(爱啥啥,可以是library, fountain, sculpture等等)已经成为这所大学的标志性东东,混合了现代和传统的风味儿。
And our guide told me there are countless famous people graduating from here, like Oscar and Nobel Prize winners.
国外知名大学没事儿就出个诺贝尔奖得主啥的嘛。
I told myself, the education here is what I deserved.
我告诉我自己,这才是我应得的教育啊!
I believe I’m doing something that my future self would thank me for.
这句话很俗又很好用:未来的自己会感谢现在拼命努力的自己的。
如果是educational program呢,可以这样开头:
The educational TV program I’d like to talk about is a documentary called eye-opener(根据个人喜好,起一个自己喜欢的炫酷的名字,反正考官也不知道), which is basically a detailed introduction of all the prestigious universities / world-renowned universities all over the globe. 然后说说这个节目什么时候broadcast呀,介绍的都是知名大学的历史啦,文化啦,学术成就啦什么的,这个节目对你的影响啦(这部分就是扣题为啥educational),之后再这样引出你最喜欢的一个学校:What impressed me the most is one episode about XXX University, which I have to say, really influenced me a lot.
如果是important stage呢,就这么开头:
I think the most important stage is right now, ‘cause I finally figure out what I wanna do with my life. Every day I wake up with a purpose, and I have a clear goal and I’m working hard to realize my dream—that is to be accepted by XX University, and that’s all because of a global study tour I went on to XXX.
现在大家的思路有没有清晰了一些呢?按照同样的道理,大家把机经里其余的题目拼拼凑凑,尽量用尽可能少的素材,cover掉更多的话题吧!加油!
