2.实用对话
To Graduate毕业之际
Samantha: Have you decided if you want to become a graduate student?
萨曼莎:你决定要不要读研了吗?
Robert: Actually I have. I know I like studying. And besides. it won't be easy to get back and do a graduate program once
you start working, especially if you have a family.
罗伯特:决定了。我知道我喜欢学习。再说,如果工作以后,特别是你建立起家庭以后,你再想读研就难了。
Samantha: I couldn't agree with you more. I don't think I'll be a graduate student in the future though I do want to study more.
萨曼莎:我非常赞同你的话。不过尽管我很想再读书,我以后也不大可能读研了。
Robert: In a few years what we have learned in university now may not be enough for work. The world is changing so fast
now. So I think you should go back to study in a few years. Work harder and you will pass the graduate students entrance
exams.
罗伯特:几年后,我们在大学里学的东西可能就无法满足我们的工作需要了。这个世界变化得太快了。所以我想几年后你还得回到校园来学习。到时用功点,你肯定能通过研究生入学考试的。
Samantha: Thanks. I'll try if I feel that it's necessary for me.
萨曼莎:谢谢。如果以后我觉得有必要,我会去试一试的。
3.详细解说
1.“graduate”一词需要注意,这个词用作动词时意为“毕业”,用作名词时则含义较复杂,它可以表示“毕业生”,也可以表示“大学毕业生”,还可以指“研究生”。表“大学毕业生”时相当于“undergraduate”,表“研究生”时相当于“postgraduate”或“graduate student”。因为这些表达法在口语中都比较常用,所以大家要熟记。
2.“I couldn't agree with you more.”也可说成“I couldn't agree more.”,相当于“I quite agree(with you).”,意思是“我再
同意不过了,我非常同意”。例如:-We have to talk. -Absolutely. I couldn't agree more.(-我们得谈一谈。-没问题,我非常同意。)
3.“in the future”意为“将来”,“in future”意为“今后,往后”,这两个短语看似简单,但很多人都不会区分,以致在口语表达中乱
用。
4.文化洗礼
英国大学毕业典礼上学生能不能抛帽子
大学生在毕业典礼上穿学士袍、抛学士帽,几乎是所有大学在毕业典礼上的指定动作。不过,英国安格利亚鲁斯金大学( Anglia Ruskin University)却以安全为理由,反对这一流传多年的传统。
据英国广播公司报道,位于剑桥郡的安格里亚鲁斯金大学要求学生在毕业典礼上不要将学士帽抛向空中,以免伤及无辜。学校称,学士帽质地坚硬又有棱有角,从空中落下很可能会砸伤别人。这样的动作曾经令一位学生严重受伤,而当年的毕业典礼也受到了影响。不过校方人员表示,他们了廨毕业生喜欢抛帽子照相留念,他们只是请求学生不要这么做,实际上并不会有人在场制止他们。
该校学生代表表示,校方的反应似乎有些过头。学生认为,抛帽子是由来已久的毕业传统,在毕业典礼上抛帽子砸伤别人的可能性非常小。“如果说抛帽子会砸伤人的话,那前往毕业典礼的路上发生意外的可能性更高,按照这个道理,干脆取消整个毕业典礼算了。” “现在人们不论做什么,都想完全避免任何危险,但这不仅是不可能做到的,而且也让人生变得更无趣了。”
很多学生表示,就算学校执意禁止这一举动,他们也会将这条禁令
抛在一旁,不予理睬。
雅思口语语速可不等于流利度!
熟悉雅思口语考试的同学们都知道,雅思评分有“四大怪”,即考官按四项标准分别评等级分:流利性与连贯性(fluency and coherence)、词汇多样性(lexical range)、语法多样性及准确性(grammaticalrange and accuracy)、发音(pronunciation)。
而这“四大怪”之首——流利性与连贯性着实给很多烤鸭挖了个大坑,许多同学觉得流利就意味着说得快,因此一个劲地想要提升自己的语速,恨不能练成英文版的“报菜名”。而很多同学常用的伎俩就是背诵大段的成文,然后在考试的时候一字不漏地以迅雷不及掩耳之势背出来,彰显自己的语速。殊不知语速(speed of speaking)这个要素却丝毫没有出现在雅思官方对于流利性与连贯性地解读中。
其实,背诵成文的做法不仅会加大考生在考试时的压力,还会使表达显得生硬且不自然。
是不是很多同学感觉做了许多无用功?那怎么办?!
不要担心,咱们这就从正确的角度认真剖析一下所谓的“流利性与连贯性”,并且给出正确高效的备考建议。
在流利性和连贯性上,雅思口语主要考查以下几个方面:一是详尽表达的能力,包括符合逻辑地组织观点、进行适当的语义指示等能力;二是表达观点、就自己的观点进行辩护、就出现的话题进行讨论及推测的能力;三是在表达过程中没有不自然的停顿或是重复使用相同的词。
我懂我懂,这翻译了跟没翻译一样,中文也看不明白是个啥,别着急,咱们一条一条来剖析。
1.逻辑表达、语义指示
雅思在本质上是一项重视应用的考试,其终极目的是帮助考生在英文环境下交流,因此对于口语考试,能够清楚、有逻辑地表达也才是终极的评判标准。
那么有逻辑的表达指的是什么呢?这首先要求考生能够按照西方人的思维逻辑习惯组织自己的思路。简单来说,西方人的思考方式比较直接,基本可以用“总分总”这三个字来概括,即先开门见山摆明自己的观点、提供论据进行论述、总结自己的观点。像咱们中国人惯用的那些比兴啊、抒情啊,甚至像《红楼梦》这种十几章了连主角还没出场的思路,就千万不要再沿用了。一定要简单直白,否则外国人的思维是无法承受的!
其次呢,就是要学会语义指示,也就是要学会用一些表达方法,包括词、词组、句式,来暗示自己的思路,告诉别人你下一步要说什么。这类表达方法包括表示比较对比的similarly, in contrast;表示回应他人观点的I agree/disagree with this point;表示举例的for example, a good case in point is that…等等。
2.表达与讨论观点
在西方大学的课堂里,一定会遇到的就是根据某个话题阐述自己的观点,并且进行讨论甚至辩论,这部分表现还有可能被记入成绩,考虑到学生们的这个需求,雅思口语考试也充分考察学生表达和讨论的能力。
在这部分,非常重要的一个能力就是要能够详尽地论述你的观点(build on your point of view)。尤其是在回答part2的时候,很多同学在表述了自己的基本观点后会发生脑子“短路”的现象,完全不知道接下来该说什么,从而出现大量的空白时间,还怎么可能显得流利连贯呢?针对这种现象,大家可以记住几个常见的论述套路,到时候就不怕无话可说啦:
原因与结果(reasons and effects)
比较(comparison)
举例 (examples)
个人经历 (personal experiences)
3.不卡壳、不重复
上面我们已经说过,过分强调语速是雅思口语备考的一个大坑,其中一个重要原因
是,担心怎么才能说快,并强迫自己使用超出自己能力的语速,这样做是会占用脑容量的!其结果就是你没有脑子来整理思路,准备接下来要说的内容,并且容易过度紧张,导致瞬间智商降为负,“卡壳”的尴尬情况就这样产生了。所以,想要做到不卡壳,除了咱们硬实力要过硬外,一个重要的小技巧,就是宁可语速适当放缓一些,把意思说完整、发音弄清晰,当然了,这里说的是适当放缓,大家还是要注意时间哦。另外,大家要放轻松,谨记在你对面坐着的是一个活生生的human being,咱们人人对话的好处就在于,你说错了可以改一下,说偏了可以解释回来,毕竟在生活中表达出错也是难免,雅思考官本着实用为本的原则,也会谅解不影响表意、意外发生的小错误的。
备考建议:
1.在平时的阅读、听力中注意他人的语言组织、表达方式,注意积累:
语言指示表达法
同一个意思的不同表达方式
大家可以在以下几个网站找到适合的阅读、听力材料进行练习:
BBCLearnEnglish:www.bbc.co.uk/learningenglish
LearnEnglish免费英语学习网站:learnenglish.britishcouncil.org/zh-hans/
VOA - Voice of America:learningenglish.voanews.com/
2.练习阐述一个观点,最好找一个speaking buddy(不一定是外国人,中国小伙伴也是可以的),两个人共同讨论一个话题,练习对对方的论述做出回应
3.练习时将自己所说的内容录下来,然后对照评分标准复听,修改后再录音练习,如此反复,直到答案能够符合评分标准为止。
4.Practice, practice, practice!语言学习没有捷径,方法可以总结,苦功还是要下,没有环境,创造环境也要练,常常和你的小伙伴们用英文对话吧!
说了这么多,其实总结起来,就是备考的关键是把观念摆正:雅思口语考试的本意是让大家真正地提升口语水平,并且能够在国外的生活、学习中清楚、自如地表达自己的意思,所以大家在准备时也应该谨记这一点,把表达放在第一位,而不要片面地理解评分标准或者过度迷信所谓的高分捷径。换句话说,当咱们踏踏实实地把口语应用水平提上去的时候,雅思考试的分数也自然不会低啦。
篇2:雅思口语素材之个性

Sample answer:
Thank you very much for the topic. It’s kind of tough to talk about someone’s own personal characteristics as I believe, the way we judge ourselves differs from the perspective (观点)other people judge us. Nonetheless, we all have our own idea about our own characteristics and I would like to talk about my ability to stay calm even in the time of distress(危难).
I am not hot tempered and I try to remain clam no matter how severe(严峻的) the situation and I find it as a helpful characteristics. From my own experience I can say that, whenever I got very much vibrated and acted very promptly(迅速地) without giving much consideration about the situation, I did not take the right decision and I repentance(后悔) for that.
In my opinion that should be a common characteristics among other people but my personal experiences sometimes contradicts(反驳) my opinion as I often find people who can’t remain calm in adverse(有害的) situation and act very weirdly(古怪地). So to say, this is not a rare quality but many people lack it.
Remaining calm and using brain rather than the tongue(舌头) is a helpful characteristic as it would help you taking the right decision and would show you the right way and course of actions. Being very fragile(弱的) in action and taking prompt decision without thinking can sometimes lead us to misunderstanding and can ruin (摧毁)relationship. Not being able to remain calm also shows your weakness and that often allure(诱导) you to take a completely wrong decision.
To me this is a very important characteristic. This quality has saved me from making many mistakes and saved me from lamenting later on. Being able to remain calm in an adverse situation helps me taking the right decision and that’s something which I find very helpful in my personal and professional life.

3雅思口语描述人物话题技巧
首先,描述人物前考生要确定一件事,就是你的人物从何说起。当然我们要把题目中要求的都包含在内,除此之外,考生们要建立起一个结构,即人物结构,包括背景信息、人物外貌、人物性格、主要成就、吸引你的特质等。
就背景信息而言,很简单,就是简单介绍一下这个人是谁、跟你的关系、年龄、职业、过往经验等等,一切跟话题和你主要想表达的内容有必要联系的都可以介绍一下。考生们要懂得取舍,一个考生描述的是一个老人,且主旨是在表达老人的乐观,想通过老人参加二战身负各种伤依然笑对自己的伤疤和所受的煎熬的例子来论证,那这个考生完全可以提一下老人的年龄、职业和过去的故事,来渲染老人乐观的态度。而如果一个考生想要描述老人有创新精神,每天沉迷于研究小发明等,则也许没有必要说出老人的职业和过往经验等。一切信息说与不说,都是可选择的,全都在于考生选择主要信息的能力。
当人物被引出,接下来就需要考生将人物的基本特征介绍给考官了。这里老师要提醒考生注意的是,介绍外貌应避免俗套的一些表达,比如:She’s tall and thin, and she has two big eyes. Her hair is long and black. 这样的表达只能使你的分数停留在5分,甚至更低。其实描述人物外貌的方式有很多,首先在描述人物身材的时候,tall and thin已经俗不可耐,tall还尚可,thin本身是个贬义词,意为削瘦的,稀落的。在夸一个人瘦的时候,外国人通常不用thin,而是用slim(苗条的)来表达。其次,two big eyes在英语国家里并不常用,基因原因big eyes并不是大多数西方人关注的重点,所以这种表达可能会让考官不明所以,无法感同身受。
再者,关于头发,描述方法有很多种,比如thin hair头发稀,wavy hair 卷发,波浪发,curly hair 卷毛,straight hair 直发,bald 秃顶的,dishevelled hair凌乱的头发。其实考察考生描述人物外貌描述的好不好,关键是看考生能否让考官听后抓住人物的特色、对人物留下印象。这需要考生选取一些有特色的地方来描述,让考官印象深刻。比如面部特征:freckle 雀斑,dimple 酒窝,oval face 鸭蛋脸,big-featured 五官较大的,double-chinned 双下巴的,high-cheek-boned 颧骨很高,sharp-featured 五官分明的,well-featured 五官端正的,pimpled 有粉刺的,wrinkled 起皱纹的,high-bridged nose 高鼻梁,bright eyes明亮的眼神,broad face 宽脸,clean-shaven face 面庞清爽干净等。考生只有说出与以上这些类似的细节特征才能抓住听者的兴趣,令读者印象深刻,否则做无用功。
描述完外貌,性格是人物类话题最必不可少的内容,一般我们通过描述性格及事件来突出人物值得借鉴学习的地方,所以对于人物性格描述更不可落入俗套。比如很多考生描述朋友就只会用friendly、kind、nice等,其实有很多词都可以表达友好、友善,比如amicable、amiable、benign等。
可以描述人的特质的加分表达有:aspiring 有志气的,有抱负的,dynamic 生机勃勃的,enthusiastic 热心的,faithful 守信的,忠诚的,frank 坦率的,forceful (性格)坚强的,honest 诚实的,humorous幽默的,independent 有主见的,industrious 勤奋的,trustworthy可信赖的,sincere 真诚的,motivated 有动力的,responsible 负责任的,determined 坚定的,cooperative 合作的,strong-willed 意志坚定的等。考生可从以上词汇中挑选,并选择合适的故事进行包装,进而突出人物特点。
在对人物的外貌、性格等特征描述完之后,接下来就需要考生搜集素材,通过一个个事例来把人物丰富起来,而具体选择什么样的事例、如何叙述,就需要看考生的逻辑能力和对于连贯性的把握了。但只要考生能迈出打破陈规的第一步,接下来的布局谋篇,就顺利得多了。所以,从现在起,考生们就应开始重新选择人物,重新思考,重新选择人物特点和表达方式,方能打动考官,得到满意的分数。
雅思口语如何描述人物话题
关键一:思路-形容词具体化
不难发现,这个话题的关键词是“polite”,就像an interesting neighbor, a good parent,这些话题一样,考官让大家描述的这些话题都凸显出其人物的性格特点。而这些性格特点往往在我们在日常生活中最容易被忽略。因为中文的语言思维会让我们在聊天时对某一个人的性格下结论,而非延伸出来聊为什么你认为这个人有礼貌或是他怎么有礼貌。所以思维的差异是难点之一。
其次形容词是一类很空洞的词汇,举个例子,任何一位出色的小说家都不会写“公主善良,王子英勇,然后他们幸福的生活在一起了。”这样的故事,因为没有说服力,也不会有读者买账。但是如果你说“公主善良,她经常给穷人分发食物;王子英勇,他曾经单枪匹马战胜恶龙”,这样的故事就很有说服力,因为性格因具体而真实可信,而这里就是运用了例子在论证形容词。所以,人物类话题的描述,尤其涉及到性格特点这块,我们需要添例子。有礼貌的具体体现比如:
· He always says thank you to people, even for the slightest things.
· When we eat at a restaurant, he would say ‘thank you’ to the waiters and waitresses every time they bring a dish to the table.
· Whenever he gets off a taxi, he would always say ‘thank you’ to the driver.
· He might make a comment about how nice someone’s looking, or how good their cooking is.
关键二:语言-举例的表达方式
解决了思路上的bug,我们再来看看语言上的,既然我们需要举例来描述人物的性格,那么举例的表达储备,我们有多少呢?除了常规的表达,比如for example, for instance,take something or somebody as an example, 我们还需要一些句型来为高分添砖加瓦,因为句型也是雅思口语评分标准之一,以下就是列举:
1. Just to give you an example……
2. Another example would be that…….
3. One other thing to mention would be that……
所以解决完这个话题的思路和语言,我们将所有的要素结合起来,再添一些关于人物的基本信息的细节描述,组织成一篇答案,大家注意例文中标黄色的句型运用:
Well, the person I’d like to talk about is a good friend of mine called Nick. He must be one of the most polite people I know, which I’ll come to explain in a moment.
But firstly, as for how I know him, well, we’ve basically known each other since primary school, because we were in the same class and we still see each other quite frequently. You know, if I feel like going out and doing something, I normally give him a call and see if he’s free to meet up.
And moving on to why I think he’s so polite, well it’s basically because he’s just got really good manners. And just to give you an example, he always says thank you to people, even for the slightest things. For instance, I’ve noticed that whenever we’re eating at a restaurant, he would thank the waiters and waitresses every time they bring a dish to the table. And another example would be that whenever he gets off a taxi, he would always say thank you to the driver, which a lot of people probably think isn’t necessary, but I’m sure the taxi drivers really appreciate it.
So yeah, that’s basically why I’d say he’s such a polite person, and one other thing to mention would be that he’s always very complimentary to people. For example, he might make a comment about how nice someone’s looking is or how good their cooking is, which I know might be seen as being a bit insincere, but I think he genuinely means what he says, at least most of the time anyway!
So, that’s pretty much it, I suppose.

雅思口语part 2范文
When I was young, I wanted to work for a major aviation company as a pilot. In fact, becoming a pilot, who flies commercial aeroplanes, was my dream in my childhood.
I have heard about this job from my teachers and relatives in my childhood and then I had a superficial idea about this job. When I was 15 or 16 years old, I saw a documentary on the tasks the pilots do in Discovery channel that gave me a clear idea of the jobs of a commercial aeroplane pilot.
Working as a pilot requires a very comprehensive training and to become a good pilot one needs very good quality and skill sets. Usually, the commercial airline companies hire the candidates and then give them comprehensive training, both theoretical and practical, and after particular hours of flawless flying records, the candidates are sent to work for their jobs.
The theoretical parts teach them the different aspects of flying, route, safety and process guidelines where the practical parts allow them to actually fly a real aeroplane. They need to prove that they have gained sufficient skills to fly a commercial plane before they are appointed to do the job.
I was a fascination on flying the aero plane in the sky. It was a thrilling job to me when I was a young. Since different people of the family members started giving me the idea of good careers and what I would become in the future, I started speculating my own idea and I found the job of a pilot very exciting and prestigious. I knew that being a pilot would allow me to visit different countries across our boundaries and would allow me to meet different people and these 2 ideas also attracted me toward this job. For all those reasons it was my dream job when I was young.
雅思口语关于工作的话题及回答
1.Is it easy to find work (employment) in your country?
Well, it really depends on what kind of jobs you’re looking for. Like, if you want to work in state companies, it’s quite hard to get in, since you have to have relationships and connections, people who introduce you for the job, but for something in private companies, it’s quite easy actually, as long as you have a college degree and some relevant working experience, it’s a piece of cake.
2.What changes have there been in recent years in employment in your country?
I think there have been many changes in the types of jobs that people do nowadays compared to 20 or 30 years ago. First of all there are much fewer jobs related to heavy industry such as mining or ship-building or even manufacturing. Secondly, there has been a big increase in the number of jobs in the service and leisure industries like shops, gyms, and hotels. And finally, since the launch of the internet there has been a big surge in the number of jobs related to IT, such as web development and design.
3.What jobs pay the highest salary in your country?
Well, I’m not exactly that sure, but my guess would be that things like banking and real estate are probably the sectors which pay the highest, because I mean, there's so much money invested in property here in China, so the salary's bound to be pretty good if you work in real estate. And as for banking, well, I think it goes without saying that most jobs related to banking are relatively highly-paid, which is one of the main reasons why so many graduates here wanna find a job in a bank!
4.Do you think changing jobs is a positive thing to do?
Yeah, I'd say it's perfectly fine to change jobs. I mean, I can't see any point in doing one job throughout your whole career if you're bored out of your wits! So for me I would say the main thing is to be passionate about your job, and if at any point you start to lose enthusiasm in what you're doing, then it might be a good time to consider moving on and doing something else.
5.What age do you think is suitable to start work?
Well, it's really kind of hard to generalize, because some people feel ready to start work as soon as they've finished high school, and a lot of people who've done this have ended up quite successful. But I guess it probably also depends on what job you wanna do, because highly-skilled jobs, like being a doctor or surgeon for example, require many years of training, whereas menial jobs, like working behind a till at McDonald's, hardly require any training, so probably any age from 15 would be suitable for that kind of work.
6.How do you think work will change over the next few decades?
That's a good question, and thinking about it, I guess one thing that could happen is that more people might start working from home, simply because it's becoming more and more inconvenient travelling to work due to traffic congestion. So that's one thing, and I guess it's also quite possible that work, in general, will become more internet-based, because the influence of the internet on people's work has increased incredibly in the last 10 years or so, and I can't see this changing. I mean, more or less everything we do now can be done on the internet, and because it's so convenient, I would say it will play an even bigger role in our lives in years to come.

雅思口语介绍你理想的工作
You should say:
- what kind of job it was
- where did you learn about it
- what kind of training/ skills are needed for that job
and explain why it was your dream job.
雅思口语part 2范文 When I was young, I wanted to work for a major aviation company as a pilot. In fact, becoming a pilot, who flies commercial aeroplanes, was my dream in my childhood.
I have heard about this job from my teachers and relatives in my childhood and then I had a superficial idea about this job. When I was 15 or 16 years old, I saw a documentary on the tasks the pilots do in Discovery channel that gave me a clear idea of the jobs of a commercial aeroplane pilot.
Working as a pilot requires a very comprehensive training and to become a good pilot one needs very good quality and skill sets. Usually, the commercial airline companies hire the candidates and then give them comprehensive training, both theoretical and practical, and after particular hours of flawless flying records, the candidates are sent to work for their jobs.
The theoretical parts teach them the different aspects of flying, route, safety and process guidelines where the practical parts allow them to actually fly a real aeroplane. They need to prove that they have gained sufficient skills to fly a commercial plane before they are appointed to do the job.
I was a fascination on flying the aero plane in the sky. It was a thrilling job to me when I was a young. Since different people of the family members started giving me the idea of good careers and what I would become in the future, I started speculating my own idea and I found the job of a pilot very exciting and prestigious. I knew that being a pilot would allow me to visit different countries across our boundaries and would allow me to meet different people and these 2 ideas also attracted me toward this job. For all those reasons it was my dream job when I was young.
雅思口语话题:描述你的工作 让你成功通过雅思考试
关于工作的话题:
首先,考官先会问你是学生还是已经工作了?
( 这里回答已经工作了, 关于学生学习类的话题会在其它文章中单独介绍, 记得关注太阳花说英语, 阅读其它相关文章)
其次,考官会接着问: 你是做什么工作的? 你为什么选择这个工作?你现在喜欢你的工作吗?
最后,考官还会问: 你在工作中有什么不喜欢的地方吗? 如果某天有人给你一天假,你会换工作吗?
类似这样的挺无聊但我们还得认真回答的问题.
关于怎样回答“你是做什么工作的?”, 我的文章“最地道最实用的基础英语口语1 (工作篇)”中有写道如何地道地回答这个问题, 所以这里就不详细介绍如何了, 省得重复,没有意义.
感兴趣的学生可以去看看,因为是基础口语,所以文章内容很简单,但回答方法很有效.
这里额外介绍一个其它的方法来回答你做什么工作的: I work with...
I work with computers.
I'm a teacher. I work with special-needs children.
如果你想增加更多关于你工作的细节,你可以说:
“I'm responsible for…”
或者 “ I'm in charge of…”
再或者“My job involves…”
例句:
I'm responsible for updating the company website.
I'm in charge of interviewing candidates for jobs.
My job involves giving tours of the museum.
在这些短语之后,使用动词的ing形式。
如果你没有工作要怎么回答这个问题?你可以说:
I'm unemployed.
I'm between jobs at the moment.
以下是没有工作的一些原因:
例句:
I'm a stay-at-home mom/dad
如果你在自主创业,为自己工作,you can say “I'm self-employed.”(“我是个体经营者”)
如果你有自己的公司,你可以说“I own a small business,”
或者更具体地说,“I own a restaurant“.
雅思口语Part 2&
描述你的工作
你喜欢你的工作吗?
以下是一些不同的方式来谈论你对工作的感受:
My job is interesting / exciting.
这意味着你很满意你的工作,你觉得挺好的.
The work is quite challenging”
”challenging”可以说是一种困难的表达方式,但具有积极的含义,所以这句话是说你喜欢这种有挑战性的工作.
My job is tough / tiring / demanding.
The work is ratherdull / boring / repetitive.
“dull”一词是另外一种表达感受“boring”的方式
“repetitive””是指你多次做同一类型的工作;没有太多变化.
其它基本就业词汇拓展:
当你被接受到一家公司时,你就被公司雇用了:
When you are officially accepted into a new job at a company, you are hired by the company.
例句:
“I was hiredby an insurance company just two weeks after graduating from college.”
当你被雇用时,你就成为公司的雇员:
When you’re hired, you become an employee of the company。
公司成为你的雇主:
The company becomes youremployer。
公司的其他员工是你的同事:
The other employees in the company are your colleaguesor coworkers。
你上面负责你工作的人是你的老板或主管:
The person above you who is responsible for your work is your boss or supervisor.
你可以全职工作:
You can work full-time.
兼职工作
part-time
少数公司提供弹性工作时间,这意味着员工可以设置自己的时间表。
A small number of companies offer flex-time, meaning the employee canset his/her own schedule.
在某些工作中,你是轮班的——这意味着每天的工作时间不一样;
In some jobs, you work shifts – meaning the hours aren’t the same every day.
相反,你是在经理安排的特定时间段工作。如果你加班,这意味着除了你的正常时间表外,你还要加班。
Instead, you work a specific block of hoursthat the manager schedules. If you work overtime, it means you work extra hours in addition to your normal schedule.
英语中, 上班通常使用“go to work”来表示;下班用“get off work” 来表示.
例句:
I go to work at 8:30, and I get off work at 5.”
(我8:30上班,5点下班.)
你的通勤时间是你乘汽车或公共交通工具上班所需的时间。
Your commuteis how long it takes you to arrive at work by car or public transportation.
例句: “I have a 20-minute commute.”
有些工作允许你远程工作
Some jobs allow you to work remotely.
这是说你可以在家里或其他有互联网连接的地方工作,你可以通过电话、电子邮件和视频会议与同事交流.
– that means you can work from home or another place with an internet connection, and you communicate withyour coworkers by phone, e-mail, and video conferencing.
你赚得一份薪水
you earn a salary.
不要说“win a salary”的错误,正确的动词是“earn“.
加薪 升职 奖金
如果你工作做的好,你可能会得到加薪。
If you're good at your job, you might get a pay raise(or a raise).
– an increase in your salary.
或者, 你也可以升职。
You could alsoget a promotion.
– an increase inimportance and authority(提高重要性和权威性).
在年底,一些公司会给他们的员工发奖金——额外的钱用于做得好的工作
At the end of the year, some companies give their employees a bonus.
– extra money for work well done(额外的钱用是因为工作出色).
重要性和权威性。在年底,一些公司会给他们的员工发奖金——额外的钱用于做得好的工作。
与“雇佣”相反的是解雇——当你的公司逼你辞职时。
The opposite of “hire” isfire.
– when your company forces you to leave your job(当你的公司让你辞职时). 例句:
Peter was fired because he never came to work on time.
如果你决定辞职,有三个常见动词可以使用:
I'm going to quit my job.
I'm going to leave my job.
I'm going to...注意: ”quit”是非正式的英语, 最好不要用在你的写作里, 口语使用则OK. “leave”是正式的, 口语可以用, 写作时也可以使用.“be going to”介于“quit”和“leave”之间.
当一个老人不再工作时,要使用的动词就是”retire“(退休)。
在大多数国家,人们在65岁左右退休。如果你比这个年龄大,并且退休在家,你可以说“I'm retired.”这句话就是来描述你目前的状况的。
part3考官范文:从事有趣工作的人
Describe someone you know who has an interesting job
You should say
Who the person is
How you know them
What job they do
And explain why you think their job is interesting
考官范文:
Ok then well the person that I’d like to talk about is actually my sister, who is an events manager, and from what she’s told me, it sounds like a really interesting job, as I’ll come to explain in a moment.
But um, firstly, I guess I should briefly explain what she actually does in her job, and uh, to put it simply, she basically manages the planning and running of events. So that would include things like um, arranging the venue, uh getting everything set up, um.. what else…uh,…oh yeah, food of course, invitations, all that kind of stuff. So she finds it pretty challenging, what with all the responsibilities that come with the job, but also very rewarding, especially if the event went well.
Anyway, as for why I think it’s an interesting job, well um, I think it’s mainly due to the fact that it kind ofen compasses so many different things. And I mean, you know, every event she does is, in some way, different to what she’s done before. So as a result, she’s constantly, like, experiencing and learning new things. And also, you know, she travels all around the country putting on various events. Um… and in the process, she gets to meet a lot of different people, including celebrities, occasionally.
So yeah, I think these things are basically what make her job so interesting, and that’s kind of why she’s been doing this job for as long as she has. You know, I think she’s been doing it for something like 10 or 11 years, and I’m sure she wouldn’t have stuck to it for that long if it wasn’t interesting! Um…yeah, that’s pretty much it then. Thanks for listening.
Notes:
I’ll come to explain in a moment = I will explain soon.
Venue = 地点. The word “venue” is used when referring to the place where an event is being held.
Encompass = cover, include 包含;包围;包括
What with – 考虑到
Something like = about
Stuck to it = stayed doing it
篇4:雅思口语话题素材之礼貌
【花样口语】雅思口语考试之礼貌的5种表达方式
雅思口语考试之礼貌的表达方式
1、西方人(主要指有一定修养的欧美人)在与他人交流时,比较多地使用情态动词:can、could、may、might、would等等。情态动词(Model Verbs)又称为情态助动词(Model Auxil-iaries),表示说话人的语气,可表达建议、要求、可能和意愿等,使得说话的语气比较有礼貌。
2、往往在句尾加please,而不是在句首加please。当please用在句首的时候,语气听起来就比较强,听起来像命令。比如请求别人做某事的时候,我们中国人会说“请在周一前给我回复。谢谢。”但是如果你直接用英语说“Please reply to me by Monday. Thank you.”听者会觉得你是在命令他,一点礼貌也没有。而如果这样说:“Could you please reply to me by Monday? Thank you.”就显得有礼貌了。
3、比较多地使用虚拟语气,比如would (had) rather、would (had) sooner、would (just) as soon等等,或者在陈述句中使用过去式表示虚拟语气,或者使用if等引导的从句表示“可能性”。这样说话可以使人感觉表达者是在考虑达到最佳的结果或方式,尽量避免不好的结果或方式,或者推测可能出现的问题,并找出可能解决的办法。
5、说话要以他人为中心,以肯定他人、赞同他人为前提,让自己显得谦卑、渺小。说完之后,还要附带一句“Thank you”或“Thanks”。其实这种礼貌的表达方式是来自古老的中国。这是东西方文化的共同点,也是为人处世的基本原则。了解英语中礼貌的表达方式,尽量让自己的英语表达更有礼貌,融入社会。
4、在陈述句的表达可能显得生硬、没礼貌时,尽量使用疑问句、否定句或从句,尽量避免自己的主观判断或武断,以积极的、建议的、比较的、人性的语气,代替消极的、命令的、直接的、武断的语气。
雅思口语Part1答案:Polite礼貌
1.Do you think you are a polite person?
Very much depends on the situation. I am by nature a very friendly and polite person but I’m also not at all a pushover.
这非常取决于情况。我天生就是个友善礼貌的人,但我也不是个任人欺负的人。
2. Who taught you to be polite?
My mom. She told me to be polite when I was young. I'm sure that sometimes, I'm rude or outspoken, but I try to have a good manner. As an idealist, I know that everyone is different, and there are many reasons why people behave the way they do.
我母亲。我小的时候她教我如何礼貌待人。我知道有时候我有些无礼或者失言,但我尝试着有礼貌。作为一个理想主义者,我知道每人都不同,我理解人们的表现都有各自的原因。
3. Do you think people should be polite?
(Why?) Having polite manners is a huge part of the society because a lot of people do not have good manners and it could ruin a relationship. If you practice good manners, you'll notice that people respond much better to you. They'll listen to what you say and won't feel put off by your bad manners.
礼貌是社会构成的重要部分,因为很多人都不懂礼貌,它会破坏关系。 如果你锻炼良好的习惯,你会发现周围的人对你也更好。他们会听你说话,不会因为你的不礼貌而退却。
4. How do people in your culture show good manners towards others?
Say please and thank you whenever you can. People are more likely to respond to a request if they hear please at the end of it. Use the right tone of voice. No one appreciates an abrasive speaking of voice when in conversation.
任何时候,要说“请”和“谢谢”。当人们听到一句话结尾有“please”的时候,更愿意回应你的请求。还要使用正确的语调,对话的时候没人喜欢听到粗鲁的声音。
5. Have there been any changes in politeness in the past few decades?
Nowadays people especially youngsters, most of them tend to behave less polite. In fact, you can see all these impatient and inconsiderate sight almost everywhere in the world. It is really a pity to see all these unwanted sight in public.
现在的人们,尤其是年轻人,大多都喜欢表现得没礼貌。其实,你可以在世界各地看到这种不耐烦的,不顾及他人感受的情况。在公共场合看到这些让人讨厌的情景真的挺遗憾的。
5-8月雅思口语题库part1话题范文:polite礼貌
1.What is politeness in your opinion?
Mmmm… for me politeness is treating other people like you would want to be treated, and remembering to say please and thank you, that was something my grandmother always reminded me about.
2.When you were child who taught you to be polite?
My parents, and especially my grandmother, she was always telling me to say please when I asked for something and to remember to say thank you when somebody gave me something or did something for me.
3.Why is it important to be polite to people?
It’s one of those things that just makes life nicer, isn’t it? When people are polite, or courteous, it’s just nicer than if they’re not. It makes everyday activities better… if people weren’t polite then maybe we wouldn’t speak to so many different people every day or help people… or ask for help either.
4.Do you think people became more or less polite in your country compared to when you were a child?
I believe, people have become more of open minded, less formal and more bold in making statements. So, they tend to just say as it is. But, this does not necessarily mean that they don’t respect their parents or elders. I think the problem is that people are not able to express what they feel in a better way.
5. In your country’s culture, how do you show that you are being polite?
To start with, a simple but convincing indicator of good manners, in my opinion, is saying “thank you” to those who help us, “sorry” when we’ve done something wrong and “please” when we ask someone for a favor. What’s more, as you probably know, Vietnam is a hierarchical society, which means it’s crucial for the people here to be respectful of their seniors, by using honorifics for instance. Of course, there are many other examples of politeness, but I’m pretty sure the ones I've mentioned above are two of the most fundamental expressions.
6.Are we less polite with members of our families than with people we don’t know?
I suppose it's normal to be a bit more relaxed about politeness with family members. Most people tend to speak in a more informal way at home; in the UK, we still say ”please“ and ”thanks“, but it's fine to use colloquial language and things like nicknames that you would never use with someone you didn't know.
7. Do you think we should be polite to those who are not being polite to us?
I remember reading somewhere that we should be pleasant to everyone, not because they’re nice, but because we are, and that “manners maketh man”. Just because someone is misbehaving doesn’t necessarily mean we should act as badly in return. There’s no point of downgrading our manners! This only makes other people look down on us. Instead, we’d better try to stay calm and courteous, even to those who don’t really deserve our politeness. And I said “try” because I know that it’s not always easy.
礼貌基本用语
Please – This is one of those words that can show good manners or come across as sarcastic, based on your tone. Any time you ask for something, it's always a good idea to add this word to soften the request.
You're welcome – When someone says, ”Thank you,“ your instant response should be, ”You're welcome,“ ”You're certainly welcome,“ or some variation that feels comfortable to you. Another way to express the same thought is, ”I was happy to do it,“ or, ”My pleasure.“
Thank you – When someone does something nice for you or gives you a gift, you should always say, ”Thank you.“ Not doing so gives the impression that you feel entitled to whatever it is, and that can leave a sour taste in a mannerly person's mouth.
May I – The phrase ”may I“ puts you on the same side as the person you are speaking to. It gives the other person the feeling that you empathize, without your having to say that. For example, when you say, ”May I see that book?“ you give the person an opportunity to share what she is looking at.
Excuse me – This is an acknowledgment that you are asking forgiveness for leaving the table, coughing, or otherwise disrupting something you are engaged in.
Pardon me – This phrase is interchangeable with ”excuse me.“ Pardon me sounds more formal.
I beg your pardon – Some people, particularly those who learned manners from Southern belle moms, would never have said, ”What?“ when asking someone to repeat what they'd just said. I was always told that ”I beg your pardon“ was much more polite and less harsh. The origin of this phrase makes me smile because it means to release someone from punishment.
I'm sorry – When you make a mistake, hurt someone's feelings, or do something that you know you shouldn't have done, saying, ”I'm sorry,“ is always the first thing you should say. You're letting the other person know you regret having done whatever it was.

篇6:雅思口语话题素材之童年游戏
看到某个英语论坛的一个问题:what are some joys that come really cheap?很多人就忍不住sense of nostalgia,回忆起童年的各种innocent games,那时候,天空是蓝蓝的,空气是香香的,世界就是我们的游乐场,万事万物都可以成为我们的玩具。似乎快乐,童年,游戏三者就是一个统一体,可as a chronic fun-spoiler, I have to say it is just a romantic version of childhood when you see it through rosy lens.
排除掉从魂斗罗(contra),俄罗斯方块(brick game),超级马里奥(Mario),拳皇(king of fighters)到魔兽世界(world of warcraft),刀塔(DoTa),英雄联盟(league of legends),穿越火线(cross fire)等一干video games,即with limitation on TV and computer,有些什么游戏能闪回(flash back)。排名第一位的,好似是hide and seek,其次有tag(追逐游戏),还有hopscotch(跳房子),还有本人觉得很具有成就感的游戏stone skipping(打水漂)。男孩子比较多的marbles,还有女孩子比较多的rope jump.

魔幻角色扮演 magical role play
Me and my sisters spent our childhood playing a game that could turn into anything from treasure hunt, adventures in strange lands to magical wars.
I thought I was a great adventurer and kept exploring this small forested place around my house seeking treasure (It looked more like a deep mysterious jungle to us). I had a goat who was a great climber. He taught me to climb the hills. I would pick up weird seeds and bring them to my sisters as the eyes of strange animals. They particularly liked a red-black seed which we thought belonged to the fire crow. Once we found a pit that had a lot of broken toys. (Later we realized that we were plundering someone's garbage dump)
round our house we spent most of the time warring invisible forces. The tree below was my favorite horse and I used to shoot arrows at other tree monsters while riding it. But sometimes it became my castle too. The defense strategy of my castle was to shake vigorously if enemy came nearby. It had a lot of heavy green seeds that fell when shaken. So me or my sisters couldn't attack each other when it shook. It also had beautiful yellow flowers that made my sisters' long witch nails.
And sometimes my sisters would dress up as princesses from strange lands. I would enact various strange animals. They used to run around when I became the flying tiger. Their favorite strange animal was the octopus who loved to drink the tea they made. The octopus could sing Arabic songs too.

动作角色扮演 action role play
We roared around on our horses (sticks) shooting each other with rifles and handguns (sticks) and dying in agony, only to get up again a few moments later to resume the fighting. Sometimes we would be horribly wounded and the game would morph into Nurses and Doctors with much bandaging and splinting (sticks), injections (sticks), thermometers under tongues (sticks) (... in retrospect I am delighted that we had no idea there was any other way to take temperatures!)
I have no idea if there was any plan or strategy to our games but they were always outdoors, often involved co-opting our willing pets as playmates (we lived in the country and didn't always have enough victims for our shoot-outs). The dogs, we found, quickly learned they were supposed to ”die“ when shot, the cats however, were hopeless for that. We had to send them off as ”carrier pigeons“ with notes attached for reinforcements.
We had court cases and put our cowardly teddy-bears on trial for desertion and hanged them, afterwards having lovely ceremonial funerals, complete with flowers and everyone (including the pets) dressed up in mourning clothes.
Oh it was all such fun.
A century ago now, it seems. I can't wait for my second childhood to begin!

追捕 ”Manhunt“
There were two versions of this game, similar to ”It“ or ”Tag“, that we used to play. They both had the same name.
One kid would start off as the bounty hunter (although I doubt we called them that at the time) while all the other kids would run off and hide. The bounty hunter would then have to find them and physically touch them in order to catch them. Once caught, the fugitives turned bounty hunter too, until eventually there was a group of them and only one fugitive remaining who was declared the winner. Basically ”Hide and Seek“ but on a bigger scale.
There was a team of bounty hunters against a team of fugitives. The bounty hunting team simply had to catch every member of the fugitive team within a set time period to win. If they failed, the fugitives won. The fugitives did not join the bounty hunters in this version. This version can also involve the fugitives trying to reach a particular point (a base) where they must tag something. I remember we used to use either a giant log near the entrance to the woods and in the middle of the field, or a particular tree that stood in the centre of a glade. The final dash for the base was the most exciting part of this version.
This game was great because where I grew up we were lucky enough to have a sizable, but not excessively large, wood near my estate. This consisted of a woodland area, a couple of open fields, a pond area and a hilly part. The fence surrounding it acted as a boundary for the game (you couldn't hide outside the boundary) and we would synchronize our watches for the games with a time period. The first version of the game, at which I excelled, could go on for hours as the last two kids held out like Japanese soldiers in the hills of the Philippines. I had a real knack for finding hiding places and staying dead still and silent. I was also quite adept at running through bushes, climbing trees and leaping over fallen logs. Ah, those were the days

丢沙包 dodge ball
I never played this game, but it was a craze amongst most of my friends in school. Two teams are selected at random, and then people scatter in a open area. A person needs to hit a person of the other team with a sponge ball( Sometimes, even cosco balls are used. The plight of the person getting hit!). There is no winner in this game( But you will feel very sore at the end of it!). Whoever gets the ball, gets the chance to hit any person from the opposite team. Passing is allowed too.

亲情角色扮演 ‘mother, may I?’
We used to always play this game during recess in elementary school. This game was so much fun!
This game is for as many people that want to play. Everyone, except one person who's alloted the title of ”mother or father (in case it's a boy)“, is supposed to stand at least 6 feet away.
Each person will ask ”mother/father“ a question such as, ”Mother may I take two steps towards you?“ If the mother says, ”Yes, you may.“ The person who asked the question takes two steps forward. If mother says, ”No, you may not.“ The person stays in their spot.
The objective of the game is to reach mother/father. Whoever does this, is the next parental figure in the next round.
I don't remember if there were different rules, but we used to play this game almost 16 years ago. It was extremely fun because people would get creative, such as, ”Mother, may I jump 3 steps ahead?“ People would always get pissed if they didn't get to be the parental figure.
It's a shame to see kids stuck on their phones, video games, and laptops instead of playing outside. I can definitely say that the 80's and the 90's were the best!

打水漂 stone skipping competition
We used to go to the ponds where we would get a lot of flat shaped chunks of stones/mud cups which have been rejected after having tea. We would break them and compete with each other, how many times we could bounce those chunks on water before dispatching it to the diametrically opposite side of the pond. Bouncing stones on water, you must be joking, right? Hell no. Well i found it in the wiki. And it is a serious game with championship. It is called stone skipping. Also you can search how to skip rocks. Here you go:
Step 1: Hold the piece of rock
Step 2: Face the water side ways, legs wide apart, slightly bent on your waist.
Step 3: Bending your wrist and snapping the stone
Step 4: The follow through
Step 5. Practice and more practice. The current record is 40 jumps.
How much to practice? Well till one of the village elderly notices and takes you by the ear and dispatches you home. Yes, you read it right, any village elderly.

蒙眼追逐 blindfold tag
The kids in my family used to play a game we made up called Blindfold Tag. It's pretty self-explanatory. Go into a room and close the door. Blindfold ”It“. They chase everyone around until they tag someone. Repeat.
If you were ”It“ you relied on your hearing, feeling, and memory of the room to find players to tag.
Most rounds consisted of leaping off the furniture to get away/tag someone. One time, in a stroke of genius, we silently moved the furniture forward so it was really easy to escape a dead end. That round went on for about half an hour. Another time, my sister tried to jump from one bed to another, and misjudged which bed she was on. She jumped right into the wall and slowly slid down it.
I honestly don't know how this game never resulted in any hospital trips. Also, the adults did not know we played this game until years later when we told them.

中国跳绳 Chinese rope jump
First you begin with the rope around the ankles of two children.
Another child jumps in the rope with both feet. Then the child jumps out of the rope with both legs straddling each outside rope. Next, the child jumps from side to side. (Straddling each side of the rope.) Then the child jumps on the rope. Then out again. Finally, the child takes the rope, crosses it using their legs, so that their legs are in side of an x. Then the child has to jump out and straddle the rope.
With each jump if they land on the rope when they are not supposed to, then they are out. Or if they are trying to land on it and miss they are out. Once you accomplish the ankles, you move up to the waist, then below the arms, then finally the neck (I have never seen it go that far.) With each sequence you say, ”in, out, side, side, on, in, out.“
雅思 口语 描述童年有趣经历
每个人都有自己独特的童年,相信在你的童年发生过很多有趣的经历,下面是雅思口语描述童年有趣经历,跟小编一起来了解下吧:
该题目有两个信息点:enjoyable和childhood。前者要求该段经历必须是愉快的,所以像什么考试不好,回家挨打等经历就不要提了。第二个childhood要求该经历必须是小时候。农村和城市里孩子的童年应该差别很大。农村的话,可以说偷菜、抓蟋蟀、爬树等。城市的话可以是游乐场、博物馆、郊游等。除此之外,我们甚至还可以说玩游戏。碾压全场,带领队友走向胜利等。
You should say?
When did you have this experience? 这段经历发生在什么时候?
Where did you have this experience? 这段经历发生在什么地点?
Who were with you? 你跟谁在一起?
What did you do? 你做了什么?
And explain how you felt about it 你感受如何?
我要告诉你的愉快经历发生在我12岁的时候。当时我们省的省会,郑州,开了个游乐场,我从电视里看到广告,一直要求我爸爸带我过去。经过我持续不断的骚扰,他终于同意了。
The enjoyable experience I am going to tell you happened when I was 12 years old. Then a new amusement park opened at Ji’nan, the capital of my province. Ever since I saw its advertisement on the television, I had been harassing my father to go there. Eventually he yielded and promised to take me there on weekends.
周日一大早,我们就起床出发。游乐场有些远,我们开了1个小时的车才到达。刚到门口我就被震惊了。之前我只在电视上见到过那么多的娱乐项目。我们尝试了来回摇摆的海盗船,互相撞击的碰碰车,垂直下降的跳楼机等惊险项目。但我最喜欢的还是过山车。它在轨道上爬升、滑落、倒转。在这过程中有一个几乎垂直的坡度,过山车在坡的边缘还停顿一下,以使我充分感受即将坠落的恐惧。我的心脏真的快跳出嗓子眼了。
We set out very early in the morning on Sunday that week, since the park was a little far away, which took an hour’s drive. At the arrival, I was astonished by the variety of entertainment facilities. Some of them were beyond my imagination and had not even appeared on the television. We tried Pirate Ship Ride, which swung back and forth, subjecting me to various levels of angular momentum, bumper cars, which we drove to crash each other, and the Mega Drop, which fell from a height of 15 meters. But my favorite was the roller coaster. It was designed to follow an elevated railroad track with tight turns, steep slopes, and inversions. There was an almost vertical slope and the coaster would stop for a moment at the edge of it in order to elicit your fear. My heart was literally pumping at my throat.
我特别喜欢这次经历。直到现在我都觉得它好像是在昨天一样。

雅思口语part2
A TV program that I found really funny was an American show called “How I met your mother” which was broadcast every Sunday last summer.
一个我觉得很有趣的电视节目是一个叫做“我如何遇见你的母亲”的美国节目,这个节目在去年夏天的每个星期天播出。
It was a sitcom with 9 series, each of which included about 24 episodes. I watched all of the episodes and found them absolutely hilarious. The series followed the main character, Ted, who recounted to his son and daughter the time when he met and got married to their mother. The special thing was this – all the events Ted had experienced with his best friends before meeting his wife were illustrated in a highly amusing way. For example, in one episode, Ted described his dates with a girlfriend whose name he had forgotten, so Ted and the other characters had to refer to her as “Blah-blah” all the time.
这是一部有9个系列的情景喜剧,每一部都包含了大约24集。我看了所有的剧集,发现它们非常滑稽。这部剧讲述的是主人公泰德的故事,他向自己的儿子和女儿讲述了他遇到并和他们的母亲结婚的时间。最特别的是——在见到他的妻子之前,Ted和他最好的朋友们所经历的所有事情都以一种非常有趣的方式进行了说明。例如,在一集里,泰德描述了他与一个被他遗忘的女友的约会,所以泰德和其他的角色一直都把她称为“废话”。
Because of the characters’ eccentric humor and natural acting, this show made me laugh a lot. So, at present, whenever I feel stressed, I replay this series so that I can just put my feet up and have a good laugh.
由于剧中人物古怪的幽默和自然的表演,这部剧让我笑了很多,所以,现在每当我感到压力的时候,我就会重放这个系列,这样我就可以把我的脚放上去,好好地笑一笑。

雅思口语Part2 范文:一个有幽默感的人
Describe a person who has a good sense of humor
Ok, I've been asked to describe a person with a good sense of humour, and the person I've chosen is my classmate Zhang Hui. Zhang. Hui is a boy from Henan. He comes from Kaifeng. He majors in Economics and well, I guess you can say that Economics is not the most interesting subject, especially when the teachers start drawing graphics on the blackboard. Zhang Hui just seems to know how to make a joke out of it all. He has this funny face, which just adds to his humour.
I'll give you an example of how sharp his wit is. The instructor was talking about the relationship of supply and demand, and was looking for examples. So Zhang Hui stuck up his hand and said his mother is an example. He said the more money he spends on university, the better grades she demands. After he said that, everyone laughed so hard the professor had to wait for five minutes before he could continue.
I guess the way this person affects me is that he teaches me that there is nothing very serious in life. He puts me at ease and he reminds me that we are all human. I don't get overstressed when I spend time with him because he knows how to make a joke out of everything.
雅思口语9分素材大搜集——童年之搞笑的事
1. 童年经典梗:西瓜种子会在肚中发芽生长
One day as I was eating watermelon, I accidentally swallowed its seeds and my grandma told me that now its tree will grow inside my stomach and leaves would come out of my nose and ears. I was really worried, on my way to school I asked everybody I met, whether it was true. To my tragedy many of them said yes. I cried really very hard and was frightened even when my parents told me nothing like that would happen. It was only after they gave me a fake medicine, I stopped crying. After that I never ate watermelon, fearing that it might happen again, until I was 9.
My grandma still makes fun of me for that :)
2.changing my underwear in open
光天化日地不知男女有别
I Was in 2nd standard.
I went to my aunts house..
I was changing my underwear...(in open)
My aunt started teasing me...”shame shame shame..o o o ...shame shame“
I answered innocently
” Please Aunty don't make fun of me....And what’s wrong in it...
It's a body part only...Everyone is having...Don't you have...“
(Every one burst out in laughter and I started crying thinking That everyone is making fun of me)...
Today.I feel ...ohh shit man..!!!...What did I say...And giggle..!!
3. I believed I was as small as a finger when born.
我曾以为我是一个拇指菇凉。
”You know, you were so little when you were born, that i used to carry you around in my pocket. “
My uncle used to tell this to little me when I was 5-6 years old.
I bought the story and was curious about how I used to drink and eat when I was that small.
He told me that they used to pick me up with fingers and make me sit on the edge of a cup and I would sip some tea from the cup, while they watched over for my safety. And then they were feeding me little crumbs of bread.
he told me stories of how he carried me around, in his pocket, saving me from birds and assorted animals who wanted to pick me up.
When he told me that I was only as tall as my finger, I would get annoyed and run to my mother to verify his story. And my mother played along her part well.
At the end of all that, maybe several months later, I figured it out. I remember I coming to him to tell him something like this, ” If i were that small when i was born, even you must have been that small too, when you were born. And somebody must have took you around in their pockets and picked you up with their fingers. But you are so big now, that i don't think you were ever that small. And so, even i were never that small“. Haha, uncle had no answer for that.
Funeral of the story.
4. 见死不救的熊弟弟
I was 8-9 years old and my brother was around 4...my dad had just bought me a new pretty bicycle and after I learnt how to ride it my brother asked me to take him for a ride...I asked him to open the gate and wait outside and I will get on the bike and come outside and then he can sit behind...I hopped on andn started riding it...somehow lost balance...went outside fast and fell into the sewage gutter in front of the house which was left open for cleaning...I was covered from top to bottom in dirty water and stuff and my bicycle fell on me...my brother, instead of calling my parents for help...was jumping, clapping and shouting...”yay, u fell down!!“...meanwhile people in the street gathered around and pulled me out!
It took 3 showers to free myself off that stench
5. 字写得差的烦恼
As a child I used to fear Chinese the most , because of so many strokes for each character ).
So my elder cousin was teaching me Chinese one night, scolding me for not getting the handwriting right. Someone knocked the door and he went to entertain who-so-ever was outside.
In the mean time I tore a page from the notebook and wrote a note to him, stating that ”I am leaving the house because of your scoldings; don't search for me.“ And I hid underneath the bed, hoping he'd get all tensed up and start searching for me and that he'd not teach me after this.
After he returned I couldn't see his reaction. After sometime he went out of the room. I sneaked my head out to see where he went. And he returned back the same instant.
I got another bashing for tearing pages from my school notebook and for not writing characters which he had asked me before leaving for the door.
Apparently I had written my note in Chinese in very bad handwriting and he couldn't even read it.
6. the meanest dad
坏到骨子里的老爸
My father told me that the school had put mini CCTV cameras in classrooms, and the live stream was provided to all parents so that they could keep an eye on their children.
He basically convinced me that he was monitoring every move of mine in school.
What's worse is, my dad was a master of reverse psychology. Every time he saw me look even remotely guilty, he'd ask, ”Well, why did you do that at school today?“ Cleverly, he never specified what 'that' was. I would think, ”oh God! He knows!“ and would be left with no option but to confess and apologize.
The consequence: Me were scared to spend more than 30 seconds in any one place (even for sharpening pencils!). If it was extremely necessary, I would talk to my classmates in as discreet a manner as possible. I used to be at my best behaviour even during recesses. And when I made slightest mistakes (for example: losing my eraser), I'd feel so guilty, I'd confess to him with tears in my eyes.
Fathers can be mean.
7.童年最经典的骗局
As young kids, my sister and I would love to sleep in on weekends if we could. So even if we actually woke up a bit earlier than usual, we'd lay in bed and pretend to be asleep when our dad came in to wake us up.
Dad would always catch our bluff, though, and tricked us into proving we were in fact awake by saying ”Are these kids still really asleep? I would believe it if they shook their legs a little bit." Indeed, being the little suckers we were, we'd fall for it and shake our legs ever so slightly. Each and every time.
How fun for my dad. I never figured out how he knew we were really awake until much later. Such a eureka moment. :D
8. 人小孩与猫妈妈之争
My grandmother had a ton of feral cats that hung out under her house (the house was on blocks or something so there was an under the house). When I was small, probably around 5 or so, we went to visit and one of the cats had just had kittens so my grandmother had brought her into the house. I was told not to bother her, but it was kittens so I had to go look. As I approached her in her 'bed' with all the itty bitty kittens around her feeding, she hissed at me. Well I wasn't about to take an insult from a cat so I got closer, leaned over, and hissed back. I got a wonderfully deep and long scratch in the middle of my forehead for that.
9.You are an pure evil
I was in grade 4 and we were sitting in the gym for our monthly school assembly. I had to fart really bad. Normally my farts are silent so I didn't think too much about it but this time it was different. I think it might have been due to the way I was sitting with my legs up and crossed together or something but when I let it out it sounded like some little girl was screeching. It lasted forever too.
The gym was dead silent at that time so the whole school could hear it. Everyone turned to me and I was mortified. But thanks to my quick thinking I blamed it on the girl in front of me. The poor girl...
I guess this is more of an embarrassing or evil childhood story
篇9:雅思口语话题素材:季节
Topic:
Describe your favourite season or time of the year.
You should say:
when that season is
what the weather is like at that time of year
and explain why it is your favourite season.
Sample answer 1:
My favourite season in England is winter. A typical English winter would last around 4 or 5 months between November and March, but when I say that I like the winter, I’m really thinking about the coldest month or two each year.
During those really wintry (寒冷)months, the temperature drops below zero and it often snows.
Over the last few years we’ve had periods of quite heavy snowfall, to the extent that roads have been blocked and schools have had to close. Last winter I remember looking out of the window one morning and seeing everything covered in a layer of(一层) white.
Obviously the snow is what differentiates winter from the other seasons, but when it doesn’t snow there isn’t much difference between winter, autumn and spring; winter is just a bit colder.
The reason I’ve chosen winter as my favourite season is because I like the snow. I live near the countryside, and the landscape(景观) looks beautiful when everything is covered in white. We also celebrate Christmas and New Year in the winter, and these are my favourite festivals.
Sample answer 2:
Well, I love Fall and Winter but Spring is the season I love most from my own experiences. Spring marks a transition(过渡) from Winter and Summer, so it’s normally(正常地) start from February and last to April, however it might change a little bit depend on climate on that year.
Spring is really nice to me with temperate weather, not too hot or too cold. The average temperature is about over 20 Celsius, it’s very ideal(理想的) in tropical country like Vietnam(越南). Air is very fresh with the smell of grass and new born trees and flowers.
In my opinion, the rain make Spring become very special, compare to other seasons. Because it rain all the time on Summer, Fall and Winter, people have to bring raincoat follow. In addition to this, it’s extremely(极其) hot in summer make me feel that I can not live in places without air-conditioner. However, it’s dry in Spring and nice weather allows people enjoy long trip or picnic, outdoor party.
And the reason why I love Spring. Many people say that Spring is time for re-birth, re-growth and renewal and that make me feel very comfortable with bird singing and flower everywhere. For me, it gives me hope for a brighter future. Spring is a time for Tet Holiday, it’s the most important festival in my country, it’s also Reunion Festival, people from city or foreign will back to hometown to visit their family and relatives.
雅思 口语范文最喜欢的季节
Describe your favorite season of the year
You should say:
How is the weather like
Why do you like this season
What activities do you usually do during it
How would different kinds of weather affect people
My favorite season in Canada is summer. The real summer in Canada lasts only two months, July and August. During these two months, the temperature climbs above 20 and it's always sunny. The trees become green again and the whole city is full of various flowers. Day time is longer and night time is shorter. Most time we have sunlight until 10 in the evening.
The reason that I like summer is because summer time is the best season for outdoor activities. I love hiking, jogging, and biking. I can go to national parks or city parks easily in summer. Summer gives me so much fun.
Just like what I've said, I love hiking, jogging, and biking in summer. I still remember I went to different national parks last summer for hiking. I saw beautiful lakes and mountains. I even encountered a bear looking for food, which was pretty amazing experience.
Weather may affect people' choice of activities. It's warm outside in summer, so more people will choose outdoor activities. We always have more music festivals or food festivals in summer. Winter is super cold in Canada. People would like to stay home instead of going outside.
