在雅思口语人物类话题里，让考官更有共鸣的好方法，就是提及一位国外友人嘛，这样有利有弊.好处就是让雅思考官很熟悉，让他们有一种“哎这小子我知道”的亲切感，坏处就是雅思考试时发挥比较受局限，因为雅思考官可能对我们的描述对象很熟悉，所以我们不能自由发挥随意瞎编了。不过这绝对不会浇灭那些死忠粉儿向雅思考官描述自己偶像的热情!因为在雅思口语人物类话题答案里，celebrity的面孔层出不穷啊!
Describe a person in the news htat you would like to meet
Ellen is one of the most popular TV hosts in the USA, and the fact that she is a lesbian doesn’t stop her from having a successful career. I’m sure everyone who knows her is impressed by her wisdom and sense of humor. I remember she gave a commencement speech to the graduating class in the University of New Orleans, where she shared her life story. It was supposed to be a serious speech because what she had mentioned was pretty educational but she managed to make the whole speech full of laughter.
Although she had ups and downs along the way, eventually, people accept her for who she is. She makes me realize that the most important thing is to be true to yourself and some of the most devastating things that happen to you will teach you the most.
She has a great sense of humor, and she invites celebrities to her show to perform or share hilarious stories. She also invents funny games for guests and audience to play. So her show is always entertaining and exciting to watch, and most importantly, I can learn spoken English while having fun.
有关Ellen的“身世”，大家可以在Wikipedia查到，百科对她的定义是：an American comedienne, television host, actress, writer and producer。她曾经出演过情景喜剧(sitcom)Ellen，她的脱口秀(talk show)全称为The Ellen DeGeneres Show，还有她在毕业致辞里面我最喜欢的一句话：
The most important thing in your life is to live your life with integrity, and not to give in to peer pressure, to try to be something that you’re not. Live your life as an honest and compassionate person, and try to contribute in some way.
用Ellen的素材还可以搞定TV program，speech(曾经考过的哦)，当然人物类话题就更不用说了。Ellen的脑残粉，聊起来!
