雅思口语里的各种地点类话题经验类话题特别多，比如你想去的有水的地方?你未来想去的一个地方?一次早起的经历等等。今天给大家分享一个雅思口语多用话题--大家熟悉的九寨沟!九寨沟这个国家级自然保护区，每年都会吸引一批又一批的游客。看着景区门口的AAAAA，就会对这个地质公园充满遐想，“九寨归来不看水”这个特点，可一定要跟考官显呗显呗!用在各种“unusual experience”和地点话题都是超好用：
Last July, my mom took me to Jiuzhaigou, which is a popular tourist spot in the south of China. It’s a place I’d always wanted to visit, so I could finally cross it out from my bucket list.
This place is lousy with tourists during August, ‘cause the scenery is the most fascinating during that period of time. My summer vacation happens to be in the peak season, so you can imagine how many people were there, and there were long lines in front of the gate, we waited for… like 2 hours before we entered, which was kind of a bummer. But it didn’t kill the fun at all, ‘cause the gorgeous views really made up for it.
There’s one funny thing about this place I have to mention. It’s actually a small village, but it has so many “oceans”. The truth is, they are all lakes, but the locals just call them ocean ‘cause they’ve never seen real ones. And the views around those lakes were breathtaking! I mean, the water is crystal clear with an azure color, we could see the fishes and roots of the trees clearly. And sometimes, the water has more than just one color, which is incredible, you know. Although it rained a lot, it never made the place less attractive. And when the weather is nice, we could see the lake shimmering in the sunlight.
This idyllic place could really help take my mind off things. I mean, it’s hard for someone to get upset or have a heavy heart in such a pleasant environment.
