雅思口语里“与wild animal的一次邂逅”其实已经不是新题,11年就考过a wild animal in your country,之后的几年也断断续续的出现过wild animal的影子,这个话题的难点就在于,动物园我们现在都很少去,更别提wild animal了!除了动物世界里可以看到野生动物,现实生活中基本接触不到这一群体!但是考官还非得逼我们讲一段经历,那么只能逼我们去旅行了…… 要不然就去非洲看狮子,或者就去长白山看傻狍子(Eastern Roe Deer),再不然就去峨眉山看猴子吧!
I want to talk about the time when I saw a bunch of wild moneys.
That was during last summer vacation, my family and I went on a trip to Sichuan, which is located in the south of China and has a super popular tourist spot called E Mei Mountain. It’s a splendid mountain not only famous for the spectacular natural scenery, but also well known for the naughty monkeys living there.
Before we got to the resort, our guide told/warned us to watch out for them, ‘cause they constantly steal people’s stuff. Actually you won’t believe this until you see for yourself, ‘cause they are supposed to be cute and lovely right? You would never associate them with thieves. And I didn’t think they could be that smart, but it turned out I was wrong. They were agile and flexible, always showed up out of nowhere, grabbed your stuff and ran away.
We bought bananas at the foot of the mountain, thinking that we could feed them to the monkeys. However, when we got to the top, countless monkeys flocked to us, and before we knew it, all the bananas were gone. And what’s worse, they were so naughty. There was a girl wearing a short skirt in our group, and one of the monkeys went up to her, lifted the hemline of the skirt and ran away in a second. We were all shocked.
That was the first time ever that I was close to wild animals, and it was quite an experience (= unusual for me).
