雅思口语描述一下你的房间(雅思高频口语题解析)•What special features it would haveAnd explain whether you think you will ever live in a house like this•Why you would like to live hereDescribe your idea of an ideal houseYou should say:•What kind of house it would be
如今的城市高楼林立,个人空间也逐渐变得狭小,不论是为了享受生活,还是为了放松心情,许多人都渴望有一间理想的房子。
实际上,大家对房子的要求各不相同,从装潢到布局,我们都会有各自的想法。
但是,我们应该怎么将这些零碎的想法整合起来,有条理地介绍我们的ideal house呢?
当季的雅思口语题库中,就有描述ideal house的题目:
Describe your idea of an ideal house
You should say:
•What kind of house it would be
•Why you would like to live here
•What special features it would haveAnd explain whether you think you will ever live in a house like this
题目解析
01What kind of house it would be
首先我们要明确自己想写什么样的房子,可以是想象中的房子,可以是现实生活中有的房子,但是建议最好有一个具象的概念,扩展起来更容易。
我们上面提到过一些房子,比如常见的有乡下的小洋房,城里的豪华公寓,房车等等,不那么常见的房子还有树屋(treehouse),冰屋(igloo) 船屋(houseboat),集装箱房子(shipping container homes)等等。
那在本篇解析中给出的范例是a house in the countryside,乡下的房子。
而我们在回答这个第一个问题时,不能只说我想要什么样的房子,否则扩展显然不够,解决方法是可以解释一下为什么会产生这样的想法,或者在哪里见过这样的房子。
另外,大家要明确一点,house和apartment是不同的,house是独栋的,通常有花园,apartment就是我们城市中常见的楼房里面的一层公寓。
参考范例
Speaking of an ideal house I would like toown a house in the countryside. I once lived in the countryside with my grandparents for a while and those cute houses there impressed me a lot so if I can choose I will definitely live in a house like that.
语料积累
- Speaking of 提到,提及Impress 给…留下深刻的印象
02Why you would like to live here
如果看一下第二题,第三小题甚至第四小题,很多同学会有疑问,2,3,4是不是在问同样的问题,都是要解释我想要住在这个房子中的理由,看上去确实是,但是我们可以主动区分这几个问题的层次。
第二小题要求我们解释为什么想住在这个房子里,顺承上一个问题我们的回答,可以解释一下“乡下”的好处,乡下生活的那段时间是怎么让我印象深刻,以至于我想住在一个乡下的房子里,也就是去描述周边环境,而非直接去描述这个房子本身。
参考范例
As I mentioned before I spent somehappy time with my grandparents in the countryside where there were many friends and many interesting things to do likegoing swimmingin the river going fishing by the lake hanging outin the village with my friends.It is still vividin my mind that my grandparents told me stories in the yard under the tree and the moonlight.
语料积累
- As I mentioned before 正如我提到过的Go swimming 游泳Go fishing 钓鱼Hang out 闲逛Vivid 生动的
03 What special features it would have
这个小题就要求同学们去描述房子本身了,也就是同学们理想中的这个房子有什么样的特征。
这里大家就可以自由发挥了,想要房子中有什么基础设施,比如卧室,厨房,花园,楼顶露台,或者其他的一些设备,比如大浴缸,游泳池等等。
大家可以天马行空,想象力丰富,但是第一要义就是语料上不出现错误,并且可以流畅表达出来,不给自己增加太多生词压力。
参考范例
I won't say this house will be quite special in this house there must be some basic facilities like bedrooms a bathroom a kitchen a Study a terrace on the roofand of course a garden. Oh in the study I wouldlike to have a hugebookcase full of books. Also there should be a garden and in the garden I can plant many flowers and trees and place some seats where I can have a chat or picnic with my family and friends. The most important thing is that this house should bewell-equippedand has everything we need.
语料积累
- Study 书房Aterrace on the roof 天台Bookcase 书柜,书架Well-equipped 设备精良的
04 And explain whether you think you will ever live in a house like this
最后一个问题让我们再次解释为什么把这种房子当作自己的理想房子。
这个问题就可以总结前面两个小题:1. 环境 2.房子本身,从这两个方面解释这个房子对我们来说很理想的理由。
参考范例
Well I think it will be an ideal house for me because I really enjoy the countryside you know not only because of the happy memory I have also due to the fresh air clean water andfavorablerelationships. Besides houses in the countryside are generallyspacious you can have your own garden where I can plant fruit trees and roses even can build a swimming pool in the garden if I like. I think life will be quitepleasant in a house like that!
语料积累
- Favorable/ pleasant 令人愉快的Spacious空间大的
P3解析
P3题和P1的不同之处在于P1通常都是自己的经历,而P3一般不是自己的经历,而是需要一些思考的客观事实,社会事实。
但是答题方法,扩展方式上没有特别的区别。
01What are the differences between living in the city and living in the countryside
既然问同学们是differences,显然不是只有一个不同点,那么我们可以写两到三个不同之处,从交通,自然环境,人际关系,犯罪等选角度去写。
参考范例
Well definitely living in thecity and the countryside are different experiences. Most obvious difference is the natural environment I mean cities are often noisy and there areskyscraperseverywhere we can hardly enjoybeing close to the naturein cities while countryside is a place for us to enjoy fresh air clean water andstarrysky.On the other hand life in the countryside may be less convenient because there are lesssound transport systemas well asrecreation facilities.
语料积累
- skyscrapers 摩天大楼being close to the nature 接近自然starry 布满星星的sound transport system 完善的交通系统recreation facilities 娱乐设施
02What are the disavantages of living in the city
同样的话题,我们还是可以从交通,自然环境,人际关系,犯罪中挑角度去回答。
参考范例
First of all the most obviousproblem is traffic. In big cities traffic jamis quite common everywhere especially in therush time. People have to spend a great deal of time incommutingto work. Second with the increase of cars and buses in big cities air pollution has become another disadvantage of living in big cities. Besides a growing number of factory have alsoaccounted forwater pollution in big cities.
语料积累
- Traffic jam 交通堵塞Rush time 高峰期Commute 通勤Account for 导致
03Can you compare the past and the present of cities
在这种古今对比的题目中,大家一定要注意的是时态问题,过去对应过去的时间状语和一般过去时,现在对应现在的时间状语和一般现在时。
我们还是可以从交通,自然环境,人际关系,犯罪中挑角度去回答。
参考范例
Well in my memory it is true that cities changed a lot. In the past there were not so many skyscrapers but recent years more and more high building were built. Besides in my childhood there were not manyprivate carseither but as we can see now every family isable to afford a car whichleads to more serious air pollution. In addition peoplebecome reluctant tobe close to each other I guess that's because we arestressedand feel less secure.
语料积累
- Private cars 私家车Lead to 导致Become reluctant to 不愿意…Stressed 压力大的
大家要记得,在看范例的过程中可以根据自己的能力适量对范例进行删减,或者换成自己喜欢的房屋模样来讲,一定不要生搬硬套。
其实,不论是车水马龙的都市,还是静谧祥和的乡村,大家所描述的ideal house一定要是自己想要住进的房子,在叙述时才可以避免与他人重复。
最后,希望同学们能在生活中多多思考身边的问题,这样在P3中才能给出自己独到的见解。
