  2020年9-12月雅思口语part2&3答案解析:一种很大的噪音

  Describe someone or something that made a lot of noise.

  You should say:

  Who or what made the noise

  What the noise was like

  What you did when you heard the noise

  And explain how you feel about it

  Well, I am quite sensitive to noise, actually, so I can think of quite a lot of things that make a lot of noise, or have made a lot of noise on occasions when it has irritated me. In fact, the one time that really sticks in my mind is when I was studying for my final exams, just days before the exams, and they decided to renovate a building right next to our dormitory. All day, and for some hours at night there was a terrible noise of mechanical diggers, drilling, vehicles moving soil and bricks and rubble, and workmen shouting and banging. I was really angry, actually, because I really couldn’t concentrate at all. It went on for several days – scraping noises, digging noises, machine noises, the sound of banging. It seemed endless. When you live in a city, or a place which is developing quickly, there are always projects like this going on and it can be really annoying when you need peace and quiet to study, or relax or even sleep!! I am pretty sensitive to noise, you see, and I have a fairly quiet disposition, so these things are a real test of my patience!

  1. What places are noisy? Can you give some examples?

  Cities are usually noisy places, at least big cities. Most cities in my country have a high population and huge roads to accommodate all the traffic, so there’s a lot of traffic noise in the central areas of the cities. If you live near an airport then you have to suffer the noise of planes flying overhead day and night… Perhaps also if you live near to a school, then at certain times of the day there’ll be a lot of noise – screaming children running around shouting and playing and having fun!

  2. What can happen if a neighbor or family member insists on listening to music really loudly all the time?

  Haha, well most people will get really bothered by this kind of thing. I don’t think anyone likes their personal space to be invaded by other people’s music, especially if it’s loud and aggressive music like heavy metal. If it is something like light classical music then it might be bearable, or even very pleasant, but most family members or neighbours would complain if someone played loud music all the time. Maybe if it were occasional, then that wouldn’t be an issue. It also depends how sensitive people are. Some people are more tolerant to noise than others.

  3. What might be the dangers of listening to music with earphones when running or walking in the street?

  Well, this is a curious question because there are quite a few examples of people running, jogging or walking down the street and crossing a road while listening to music on headphones, and getting hit by a motorbike or scooter simply because they haven’t heard the noise of the engine, or the beeping of the horn – and because the motorbike rider didn’t know they couldn’t hear the horn beeping as they tried to warn them. Especially today with these small wireless headphones – you often don’t know that the person cannot hear you, because you don’t know they’re wearing earphones or headphones.

  4. What can be done to reduce traffic noise?

  Well, there are a few measures that I think are often used to reduce traffic noise in cities. One is prohibiting people from using their horns on main roads through residential areas, another is constructing barriers by the sides of major roads to prevent the noise getting into residential communities nearby. I also heard that some car manufacturers are building cars that are increasingly quiet on the roads.

  5. Do you think the world will be noisier in the future?

  Not really. I think that the world will be much quieter than it is today because of the kind of technological advances that are being made to reduce noise, and also because people are becoming more sensitive to noise and value personal space more than in the past.
