剑桥雅思13出来后，很多同学都积极刷题，为了能第一时间了解更新的题目动向。为配合大家备考复习，朱博老师将剑13的口语话题进行解析，给大家参考思路。
剑13Test4 Part 1: Animals
1. Are there many animals or birds where you live? [Why or why not?]
Yes的话就说哪里有、有什么;No的话就说为什么没有。
Answer 1:
Yeah, every morning I could hear the singing of birds, and there are plenty of small parks and gardens in my city where you can always run into some squirrels, pigeons or dog walkers. Also, it’s pretty common to see stray cats in the neighborhood.
run into: 偶遇
stray: 流浪的，走失的
Answer 2:
Not really, I live in a busy industrial city where there’s not much natural environment, I mean, that place is just like a concrete jungle. I guess all those little creatures like squirrels or magpies were driven away ‘cause my city is not that ‘animal-friendly’.
concrete jungle: 高楼林立、缺少绿化
drive away: 赶走
2. How often do you watch programs or read articles about wild animals?
经常看的话就说为什么、看什么;不经常看的话就解释原因，一般就是没兴趣。
Answer 1:
Well, quite often. I’m a huge fan of a TV show called Animal World which is like the Chinese version of animal related programs produced by BBC. I just love the narrator’s voice, and the show taught me a lot about wild animals, like how they find a partner or how they hunt for food. It’s just educational as well as entertaining.
Answer 2:
Well, to be honest, I hardly ever do that, ‘cause I’m not that big on wild animals. It’s not that I dislike them, it’s just that I find them unpleasant to look at, I mean, they tend to be violent and when they fight for food, there would be blood everywhere. I just can’t watch things like that.
3. Have you ever been to a zoo or a wildlife park?
一般的孩子都会去过动物园吧!所以就说什么时候去的见到了什么或者什么给你留下了很深刻的印象就OK了。
Yeah, when I was little, my parents used to take me to the zoo a lot. And we would buy some apples from the zookeeper to feed those fluffy moneys or giraffes. And I’ve been to a safari park, which was quite an experience, ‘cause we were like animals kept in cages and those wild animals were running around freely.
safari park: 野生动物园
4. Would you like to have a job working with animals?
特别喜欢动物的人，会enjoy spending time with animals，比如以后想当circus-tamer，想在aquarium工作，想每天接触police dog等;不喜欢的人同样说明原因即可。
Answer 1:
Yeah, definitely! I’m an animal lover, and pandas are my favorite. I’ve always wanted to take care of pandas in those nature reserves. It’s kind of like my dream job. Spending time with those adorable creatures must be super fun.
nature reserve: 自然保护区
Answer 2:
Um… not really, ‘cause I have a serious allergy to animal hair. When I get anywhere near a dog or a cat, I just won’t stop sneezing. So I guess this kind of job is not that suitable for me.
