2019年1月19日雅思口语考试回忆及解析
Describe an important plant in your country
You should say:
What it is
Where you see it
What it looks like
Why it is important
思路分析
看到题目我们首先进行思维发散,把能想起来的喊出来名字的植物全部列举出来,很多同学的思维受限是因为看到题面上的important被吓到,认为只有竹子一类的才能在中国被称得上重要,但是我们如果仔细想想,其实很多植物都符合要求的,比如康乃馨-中国人注重孝道,康乃馨是对妈妈表达爱意的花;比如牡丹花,在中国洛阳是都城的时候,牡丹一直是中国的国花;再比如含羞草,在注重内敛的中国文化中,含羞草经常被比喻成娇羞的女孩子,实在不行了就说玫瑰花,中国的年轻人到了情人节也会用它来表示爱意。重要不代表需要是在中国独一无二的。
确定了选题之后我们就可以看题目具体的要求了,第一个要求介绍,大家第一句点明要讲的内容然后把所有的你所了解这植物的相关信息都可以答出来作为延伸信息,或者对植物进行介绍,比如颜色啦,有没有香气之类。
第二点描述你如何知道,这个一般有几种情况,小时候在书上看到的,小学学过的,电视上看到的,公园里见到爸爸跟你说的等等注意需要把整个经历完整摊开来讲,越详细越好,考官不喜欢听笼统的答案,另外细节多了听起来也比较真实,注意描述经历时的时态。
第三点介绍为何重要,这个时候只要讲中国人在什么场合会用到这种植物,或者这种植物和中国文化之间的关系就可以啦。
第四点介绍个人感受+原因即可。
参考答案:
Well, when it comes to this topic, the first kind of plant that popped into my mindis the sunflower, they are pretty common so you probably have seen them somewhere. Also, Vincent van Gogh, the famous artist from Holland has a painting of them, which is the magnum opus of his. In his painting, you can feel the energy and passion that sunflowers bring to the people and this beautiful world.
I saw sunflowers for the first time when I was little, maybe like 5 years old in my grandpa’s small garden, he is a big fan of gardening and has all kinds of flowers in his garden, but sunflowers caught my attention because of their size and bright colour. I remember at the end of the day when my parents and I were leaving, I cried so badly because I wanted to take the flowers back home with me.
Sunflowers are very important in China because firstly, Chinese people like their spirit of always looking up to the sun, in our culture, we think they are like people with dream, passion and belief, and we think highly of those people. Secondly, Chinese love to eat sunflower seeds while watching TV, it’s basically like you guys eat pizza while watching game of thrones.
Sunflowers are my favourite plants, I hope that in the future, I can have my own small garden so that I can keep some by myself, it would be very beautiful I bet.
