今天和大家一起分析雅思口语相关话题--gift
What are the most popular gifts in China?
面对这类“大众”型话题,可以像丽丽老师一样进行分类描述。这样可以让自己的表达更加有层次感。此外,在考试的时候一定要自然地表达,不要让考官觉得你在背或者根本没有准备好,其实大家往往可以从口语表达中体现“思考”的过程。
sample answer
Well, the way I see it, it depends on who the gift is for. I mean, if you're giving a present to a kid, then I believe toys are the best.
For instance, if it's a boy, you can give him a transformer or an action figure. If it's a girl, then I suppose barbie dolls are very good choices.
However, if the gift is for an elderly person, perhaps you need to consider giving them something that will be beneficial to their health.
Let me think of an example ... Um, there are some products in China that can massage some certain parts of the body like the neck or the waist. So I think these should be the suitable gifts for the old people.
