    Part 1:Singing 唱歌

    留学申请 & 口语答案 &雅思课程-咨询: liuxue2908 —————————— 雅思口语 Part 1|话题:Singing 唱歌本期围绕 6 个高频问题,附核心表达 + 完整范例答案。 Q1. Do you like singing? Why?核心表达 • grew up in a family where everyone was really into music|成长在人人喜欢音乐的家庭里 • sing around the house all the time|在家里随时哼歌唱歌 • comes naturally to me|对我来说很自然、容易上手 • compliment my voice|夸我的嗓音(compliment=夸奖) • enjoy it even more|更加享受它 范例答案 Yeah, absolutely. I grew up in a family where everyone was really into music, so I am basically the kind of person who sings around the house all the time. I would say singing comes pretty naturally to me as well, and since people often compliment my voice, that naturally makes me enjoy it even more. Q2. Have you ever learnt how to sing?核心表达 • formal vocal training|正式声乐训练 • in the school choir|在学校合唱队 • basic breathing techniques|基础呼吸技巧 • simple music theory|简单乐理 • pick up the basics|掌握基础(pick up=学会、掌握) 范例答案 Not professionally, no. I have never had formal vocal training, but I was in the school choir back in primary school. Our teacher taught us some basic breathing techniques and simple music theory, which definitely helped me pick up the basics of singing. Q3. Who do you want to sing for?核心表达 • sing for myself whenever I feel like it|想唱就唱,唱给自己听 • record songs on karaoke apps|在唱歌软件上录歌 • post short singing clips on Douyin|在抖音发唱歌短视频 • whoever happens to come across my videos online|碰巧在网上刷到我视频的人 范例答案 Honestly, I usually just sing for myself whenever I feel like it, so I have never really thought about that before. Sometimes I record songs on karaoke apps like Quanmin K Ge, and every now and then I will post short singing clips on Douyin as well. So I guess, in a way, I am singing for whoever happens to come across my videos online. Q4. Do you think singing can bring happiness to people?核心表达 • let off steam|释放压力 • take your mind off things|暂时忘掉烦恼 • the atmosphere is contagious|氛围很有感染力 • sing along|跟唱 • hype each other up|互相带动气氛(hype up=调动情绪) 范例答案 Definitely. Singing is one of the best ways to let off steam and take your mind off things for a while. Especially when people go to KTV with friends, the atmosphere is usually contagious. Once everyone starts singing along and hyping each other up, it is almost impossible not to have a great time. Q5. Do you like listening to others singing?核心表达 • it really depends on how well the person sings|取决于对方唱得怎么样 • sings in tune|唱得准、不跑调 • enjoyable and even relaxing|令人享受,甚至很放松 • constantly off key|总是跑调 • more like torture than entertainment|更像折磨而不是娱乐(entertainment=娱乐) 范例答案 I think it really depends on how well the person sings. If someone has a good voice and sings in tune, then listening to them can be really enjoyable and even relaxing.

Do you want to know more about outer space?核心表达 • curious about things we still do not fully understand|对我们还没完全理解的事情很好奇 • full of mysteries|充满神秘感 • I would especially love to know|我尤其想知道 • whether there are planets|是否有星球(whether=是否) • support human life|支持人类生命 范例答案 Definitely. I have always been curious about things we still do not fully understand, and outer space is full of mysteries.

    留学申请 & 口语答案 &雅思课程-咨询: liuxue2908 ———————————— 雅思口语 Part 1|话题:Clothing 衣服本期围绕 6 个高频问题,附核心表达 + 完整范例答案。 Q1.

For me, the fit makes or breaks an outfit. And honestly, if something makes me look bigger than I actually am, it is an instant no from me no matter how trendy it is. Q2.

Do you like wearing T-shirts?核心表达 • lightweight, easy to style|轻薄、好搭配 • perfect for hot weather|特别适合炎热天气 • graphic T shirts with words or slogans|有文字或标语的印花 T 恤(slogans=标语) • reflect different personalities or attitudes|体现不同的个性或态度(reflect=体现) • make the outfit feel more personal|让穿搭更有个人风格 范例答案 Yeah, especially in summer.

Do you wear different styles of clothes on weekdays and weekends?核心表达 • depends on both the occasion and my mood|取决于场合和心情 • dress more low key|穿得更低调 • standing out too much|太显眼 • casual outfits|休闲穿搭 • fashion forward pieces|更时尚前卫的单品 • look good in photos|拍照好看 范例答案 Yeah, definitely. What I wear usually depends on both the occasion and my mood that day. On weekdays, when I am attending classes, I tend to dress more low key because I do not really like standing out too much.

What colour clothes do you like?核心表达 • drawn to neutral colours|被中性色吸引(be drawn to=被……吸引) • timeless|经典不过时的 • easy to mix and match|容易自由搭配 • cleaner and more put together|更干净、更有整体感 • go out of style|过时 范例答案 I am mostly drawn to neutral colours like black, white, and grey because they are timeless and easy to mix and match. I also feel like those colours make outfits look cleaner and more put together, so they rarely go out of style. 在小宇宙查看该单集文稿

    Part 1:Science 科学

    留学申请 & 口语答案 &雅思课程-咨询: liuxue2908 ———————————— 雅思口语 Part 1|话题:Science 科学 本期围绕 6 个高频问题,附核心表达 + 完整范例答案。 Q1.

I have always been more drawn to the humanities, like literature and history, because those subjects come more naturally to me. That being said, I still think science plays a huge role in helping us understand how the world works. Q2. When did you start to learn about science? 核心表达 · learn science properly|正式学习科学(properly=正式地、认真地) · physics / chemistry / biology|物理/化学/生物 · became part of our timetable|进入了我们的课表(timetable=课表) · essential for getting into a good university|对于考上一所好大学非常重要 范例答案 I started learning science properly in middle school, when subjects like physics, chemistry, and biology became part of our timetable. I still remember teachers telling us these subjects were essential for getting into a good university. Q3. Which science subject is interesting to you? 核心表达 · I would probably say physics|我觉得应该是物理 · everyday phenomena related to sound, light, heat, and electricity|和声音、光、热和电有关的日常现象 · do experiments in class|课堂上做实验 · theories in action|理论在实际中运作(in action=在实际运作中) · memorising textbooks|死记硬背课本 范例答案 I would probably say physics. I like it because it explains lots of everyday phenomena related to sound, light, heat, and electricity. I also enjoyed doing experiments in class since they allowed us to see the theories in action instead of just memorising textbooks. Q4. What kinds of interesting things have you done with science? 核心表达 · my cousin gave me a science experiment kit|表姐送给我一套科学实验套装 · use batteries and wires to light up a tiny bulb|用电池和导线点亮一个小灯泡 · it sounds basic now|现在听起来很简单(basic=基础的、简单的) · fascinating|神奇的、很吸引人的 · how electricity worked|电是如何运作的 范例答案 When I was in primary school, my cousin gave me a science experiment kit.

I think science programmes are much more engaging than simply sitting through lessons because they explain scientific knowledge in a more entertaining way. Unlike school lessons, they can really spark people's curiosity. Q6. Do Chinese people often visit science museums? 核心表达 · it depends on where people live|这取决于人们住在哪里 · there are not many science museums|没有很多科学博物馆 · do not get the chance to visit them|没有机会去参观它们 · expose someone to something|让某人接触某物 · interactive learning experiences|互动式学习体验 · from a young age|从小 范例答案 I think it depends on where people live. In smaller cities, there usually are not many science museums, so people do not really get the chance to visit them. But in major cities like Beijing or Shanghai, lots of parents take their kids there to expose them to more interactive learning experiences from a young age. 在小宇宙查看该单集文稿

    题库答案 & 雅思课程 &出国留学咨询:liuxue2908 —————————————— 雅思口语 Part 1|话题:Parks 公园 本期围绕 8 个高频问题,附核心表达 + 完整范例答案。 Q1. Did you like going to parks as a child? 核心表达 Not really|不太喜欢(比直接说 no 更自然) be far more into|更喜欢(far more 表示程度更强,into 表示喜欢) exciting|刺激的 parks were the kind of places older people enjoyed|公园是长辈们喜欢去的地方 范例答案 Not really, to be honest. When I was little, I was far more into amusement parks because they felt much more exciting and fun. Back then, I always thought parks were the kind of places mainly older people enjoyed, especially those who liked walking around or doing tai chi. Q2. Do you still like going to parks now? 核心表达 Yeah, definitely|现在很喜欢 clear my head|清空思绪 the air feels fresher|空气感觉更清新 the whole environment is much more calming|整个环境更让人平静(calming=让人平静的) feel recharged both mentally and physically|感觉身心都恢复了状态(mentally 精神上,physically 身体上) 范例答案 Yeah, definitely. These days, whenever I am under a lot of academic pressure, going to a park helps me clear my head and switch off for a while. I think it is probably because the air feels fresher and the whole environment is much more calming. After taking a walk in the park, I usually feel recharged both mentally and physically. Q3. Would you like to see more parks in your city? 核心表达 Absolutely|当然想 if there were more parks in the city|如果城市里有更多公园(虚拟语气用 were) have more spaces to unwind|有更多地方放松 get away from the hustle and bustle|远离喧嚣(hustle and bustle 指城市的忙乱和喧闹) livable|宜居的 have more room to run around and play|有更多空间跑来跑去和玩耍 范例答案 Absolutely. If there were more parks in the city, office workers and students would have more spaces to unwind and get away from the hustle and bustle of daily life.

Public parks can get quite crowded sometimes, especially on weekends, which kind of ruins the relaxing atmosphere. In a personal garden, though, you can really slow down, enjoy some quiet time, and decorate the space however you like. Q6. How are the parks today different from those you visited as a kid? 核心表达 parks nowadays are definitely more modern and better designed|现在的公园明显更现代,设计也更好 outdoor fitness equipment|户外健身设施 themed areas for different age groups|针对不同年龄段的主题区域 has improved a lot|提升了很多 more aesthetic|更有美感的 范例答案 Parks nowadays are definitely more modern and better designed than the ones I visited as a child. A lot of them now have outdoor fitness equipment, running tracks, and even themed areas for different age groups.

What do you like to do when visiting a park? 核心表达 take a walk|散步 get some fresh air|呼吸新鲜空气 parks look completely different depending on the season|公园会随季节呈现完全不同的样子 really relaxing|特别放松 范例答案 I usually just enjoy taking a walk and getting some fresh air. I also love taking photos of flowers because parks look completely different depending on the season. There is something really relaxing about seeing cherry blossoms in spring or golden leaves in autumn, it just helps me slow down and appreciate the moment a bit more. Q8. Would you like to play in a public garden or park? 核心表达 I would probably choose a garden|我可能会选择花园 I enjoy being surrounded by flowers and plants|我喜欢被花草包围 calmer|更宁静 different flowers bloom in different seasons|不同的花在不同季节开放 every visit feels a little different|每次去都感觉有点不一样 less overwhelming|没那么让人疲惫(overwhelming=让人有压迫感、疲惫感) 范例答案 I would probably choose a garden.

I also love how gardens change throughout the year, different flowers bloom in different seasons, so every visit feels a little different. Compared to large public parks, gardens usually feel quieter and less overwhelming as well. 在小宇宙查看该单集文稿

    Part 1: Cars汽车

    题库答案 & 雅思课程 &留学申请:+ v: liuxue2908 雅思口语 Part 1|话题:Cars 汽车 本期围绕 6 个高频问题,附核心表达 + 完整范例答案。 Q1.

I used to get carsick quite easily as a child, so long car rides were never really my cup of tea. Because of that, I actually preferred travelling by train since it felt much more comfortable and less tiring for me. Q2. What types of cars do you like? 核心表达 spacious SUVs|宽敞的大型越野车 I am quite into…|我挺喜欢……(be into=对……感兴趣) look really stylish|看起来很时尚 bigger cars make it easier to travel with family or friends|大车让和家人朋友一起旅行更方便 perfect for road trips or weekend getaways|特别适合公路旅行或周末短途旅行 范例答案 I am quite into spacious SUVs.

Do you prefer to be a driver or a passenger? 核心表达 I would much rather be a passenger|我更愿意当乘客(would much rather=更愿意) stay focused on the road|专注于路况 sit back|放松地坐着 smells awful|味道特别难闻(awful=糟糕的) wish I had a car of my own|希望我有一辆自己的车(虚拟语气) 范例答案 I would much rather be a passenger.

That being said, whenever I end up in a taxi that smells awful, I honestly wish I had a car of my own. Q4. What do you usually do when there is a traffic jam? 核心表达 traffic jam|堵车 I usually listen to music first|我通常会先听音乐 keep me calm and stops me from getting annoyed|让我保持冷静,不让我变得烦躁 the traffic is moving at a very slow pace|车流移动得非常慢(pace=速度) kill time|打发时间 范例答案 I usually listen to music first because it helps keep me calm and stops me from getting annoyed.

I think colour plays a huge role in design, and cars are no exception. The colour of a car can completely change the overall vibe and make it look either more premium or a bit cheap. Personally, I am not really into overly bright colours, I prefer Morandi style shades because they look more unique and sophisticated. Q6. Will you buy an expensive car in the future? 核心表达 way out of my budget|完全超出我的预算(way out of=远远超出) a practical means of transport than a status symbol|实用交通工具,而非身份象征 do the basics well|满足基本功能 get me from A to B comfortably|舒服地把我从一个地方带到另一个地方 pay extra just for the brand name|为了品牌名额外付钱 范例答案 Probably not, to be honest. First of all, expensive cars are way out of my budget at the moment. More importantly, I have always seen cars as more of a practical means of transport than a status symbol. As long as a car does the basics well and gets me from A to B comfortably, I do not really see the point in paying extra just for the brand name. 在小宇宙查看该单集文稿

    Part 1: Shopping 购物

    题库购买 & 雅思课程咨询 & 出国留学申请:VX: liuxue2908 ———————————————— 雅思口语 Part 1|话题:Shopping 购物 本期围绕 4 个高频问题,附核心表达 + 完整范例答案。 Q1. Do you like shopping? 核心表达 Kind of, yeah|算是喜欢吧 I would not say I am a shopaholic|我不会说自己是购物狂(shopaholic=购物狂) blow off steam|释放压力(steam=蒸汽,这个表达很形象) when I am under a lot of pressure|当我压力很大的时候 genuinely like|真正喜欢(genuinely=真正地、发自内心地) instantly lift my mood|立刻让我心情变好(instantly=立刻) treat something as a way to…|把某事当成一种方式 unwind|放松(很适合描述从压力里缓过来) 范例答案 Kind of, yeah. I would not say I am a shopaholic, but shopping does help me blow off steam when I am under a lot of pressure. Buying something I genuinely like can instantly lift my mood. Besides, I sometimes treat shopping as a way to unwind and walk around rather than just spending money. Q2. How often do you go shopping? 核心表达 around two or three times a month|一个月大概两三次(around=大概) go to shopping malls|去商场 window shop|随便逛逛(只看,不一定买) check out the latest clothes or trainers|看看最新的衣服或运动鞋(trainers=运动鞋) daily necessities|日用品(necessities=必需品) order them online|在网上下单 save me a lot of hassle|帮我省去很多麻烦(hassle=麻烦事) 范例答案 I would say I go to shopping malls around two or three times a month. Most of the time, I just window shop and check out the latest clothes or trainers. As for daily necessities, though, I usually order them online since it is much quicker and saves me a lot of hassle. Q3. Do you prefer online shopping or in store shopping? 核心表达 both have their pros and cons|两者各有优缺点(pros=优点;cons=缺点) completely worn out|特别累、筋疲力尽(worn out=筋疲力尽的) online shopping is my go to|网购是我的首选 without leaving the house|不用出门 stuck indoors for too long|在室内待太久(stuck=被困住的感觉) try on|试穿 the right size and style|合适的尺码和款式 take a shot in the dark|碰运气(信息不够时尝试,很地道) 范例答案 Honestly, I think both have their pros and cons. When I am completely worn out, online shopping is definitely my go to because I can buy whatever I need without leaving the house. But if I have been stuck indoors for too long, I would rather shop in person. Trying clothes or shoes on makes it much easier to find the right size and style instead of taking a shot in the dark online. Q4. Have you ever returned anything you bought online? 核心表达 return something I bought online|退掉我网购买的东西 the thing I return most|我最常退的东西 look great in the photos|在图片里看起来很好看 the size does not fit properly|尺码不合适(fit properly=合适、合脚) do not feel comfortable to wear|穿起来不舒服 the real product|实物 does not live up to the pictures|实物没达到图片效果(live up to=达到……的预期) 范例答案 Yeah, quite often actually. Shoes are probably the thing I return most when shopping online because sometimes they look great in the photos, but once they arrive, the size does not fit properly or they just do not feel comfortable to wear. And occasionally, the real product simply does not live up to the pictures, so returning it feels like the only option. 在小宇宙查看该单集文稿
