雅思口语话题：History

Do you like to learn about history?

Do you think history is important?

What historical event do you find most interesting?

Do you think the Internet is a good place to learn about history?

说到历史，我们并不陌生，因为几乎每个人从小就学习历史。According to Wikipedia, History is the study of the past, particularly how it relates to humans. 也就是说，历史是对过去的研究，尤其是和人相关的研究。

历史在人类社会的发展过程中，起到至关重要的作用。它告诉我们我们是谁，我们来自哪;它让我们穿越时间和空间去思考过去发生了什么，我们从中能学到什么;它使我们更好的了解这个世界。The history plays a vital role in the development of society. It gives us an insight into who we are and where we come from; it helps us stretch our perspective across time and space to think about what happened in the past and what we can learn from the past; it provides us with a chance to understand the world.

1. Do you like to learn about history?

这是一道喜欢或者不喜欢类的题目，首先我们来学习一下表达‘喜欢’的语言，题目中的like可以替换成be interested in; be into; be fond of; 或者用I find something interesting.不喜欢除了用dislike以外，还可以替换成hate; loathe; be fed up with; be sick of.

关于这道题，通常情况下，我们会回答喜欢，或者不喜欢。注意，答案尽量以Yes, I do.的形式出现，而不是单独的yes。同时也可以替换成Yes, very much so; Yes, definitely; Yes, absolutely等表达。同样，否定的答案，可以用Not really; Not exactly; 或者是，No, it’s not my kind of thing来代替。

若该题目的答案是喜欢，那么我们需要在表明倾向后加以解释，通常是给出原因或例子。除了以上所讲到的历史的作用外，喜欢了解历史的原因还可以是：The historical events are very interesting(历史事件非常有趣);It can make us wise(使人明智)等。

若回答不喜欢，则也须讲明原因，或者讲明不喜欢的地方在哪。这里推荐给考生一个加分的表达：to have a love-hate relationship with something,意思是说对某物或是某件事情既爱又恨。回想我们不喜欢历史的原因，可能更多的是因为我们不喜欢以背诵为主的历史考试，而非我们对历史事件真的不感兴趣。(I’m more interested in historical stories rather than in details of names, dates and places.)

范例1: Yes, very much so. I’d say history is my real love. You know, it’s easy for me to get lost while reading historical books or watching some documentaries. I find history very interesting, mainly because it helps me stretch my perspective across time and space to think about what happened in the past and how our ancestors experienced things.

范例2: Well, to be honest, I have a love-hate relationship with history, generally because I’m much into the stories and the insights it gives me into the past, but I’m really struggling in the history exams which are usually centered around dates, names and places.

2. Do you think history is important?

关于这道题目，相信我们大多数考生都会给出肯定的回答：历史是重要的。其原因可以是以下几点：

It allows people to understand how culture, politics, economy, society and values developed. (它使得人们了解文化，政治，经济，社会以及价值是如何发展的)

History not only deals with the past but also with how the past led to the present. (历史不仅是关于过去，还关于过去如何导致了现在)

It tells us what happened in the past, so that we avoid repeating mistakes. (他告诉我们过去发生了什么，以帮助我们避免重复错误)

范例：Yes, I think so. History not only deals with the past, but also with how the past led to the present. So it allows people to understand how culture, politics, society and values developed. More importantly, since it tells us what happened in the past, we could avoid repeating mistakes.

3. Do you think you can learn history from films or TV programs?

了解历史的方式有很多，比如看电影，读书，看纪录片，参观历史景点，上历史课等。(There are many ways to learn about history, such as watching films, reading books, watching documentaries, visiting historical sites, and attending history classes. )。至于哪一种才是了解历史最好的方式(the best way to learn history)，每个人心中的答案各不相同。

这道题目是问，我们是否可以通过看电影或者电视节目这种方式来了解历史。目前，我们的电影类型有很多，比如comedy(喜剧)，action movies(动作片)，science fiction films(科幻片)，martial arts films(功夫片)，romance films(爱情片)，war movies(战争片)等等，至于电视节目，种类更是繁多，常见的有reality shows(真人秀)，talent search(选人才节目)，talk shows(谈话类节目)，variety shows(文艺晚会)，sitcoms(情景喜剧)等等。这些影片或者电视节目多多少少的涉及了一些历史，然而它们的主要目的还是以娱乐和教育为主(entertaining and educational)，以讲述历史为目的还要属documentaries(纪录片)。

回到题目，这是一道是非疑问类的题目，我们的答案可以是肯定的，否定的或者不一定的。然而通过上面的分析，这道题目回答No或It depends可能更容易一些。原因可能是有些电影或是电视节目会根据剧情需要对历史进行改编(Some historical events might be rewritten by editors to satisfy the plot)，每部电影或者电视节目会站在各自不同的角度看待历史，我们容易受电影或节目中人物和剧情的影响(They may show the history from different perspectives, so that we are easy to be influenced by the characters and plots.)，因此我们并不总是能够从电影和电视节目中了解到历史，然而记录片除外，因为其涉及的内容主要是历史或科学(Documentaries mainly deal with history or science)。因此，从纪录片中，我们比较容易了解真正的历史。

范例：It depends. It depends on what the movie or program is. I mean, we usually watch some movies and TV programs in which some historical events are rewritten to satisfy the plots. In this case, I don’t think we can learn the real history. However, we may learn some from documentaries, which are particularly deal with historical issues or science.

4. Do you think the Internet is a good place to learn about history?

同样，这也是一道是非疑问类的题目，无论我们的答案是肯定的还是否定的，都需要有充分的支持。例如，这道题目你可以回答‘是’(Yes, I think so; Yes I guess so; Yes sort of)，然后在给出理由，可以是网络资源充分，且免费，查阅方便等等(give a convenient access to information on almost everything)。所以你经常到什么样的网站上去浏览什么样的历史知识。

除此之外，你还可以给出否定的答案(No, I don’t think so; No, I don’t think it’s necessarily the case.)，然后给出原因，可能是因为网络信息并不总是可靠或者客观(not always reliable or objective),也可能是因为网络当中充斥着大量的误导或虚假或歪曲的信息(be awash with some misleading or false or distorted information)，还有可能是因为网络上信息量过于庞大导致很难找到真正有用可靠的信息(With so much information in the website, people may find it difficult to search for the useful and reliable information which they really need)。因此我们应当慎重使用网络信息(be careful in using the information on the internet)

范例1：Yes, I guess so. It’s mainly because the Internet gives us a convenient access to information on almost everything we need. So I usually go to some news and education websites to read some information about history or other things.

范例2: Well, I don’t think it’s necessarily the case, mainly because the stuff on the Internet is not always reliable or objective. You know, everyone can publish their own ideas on the websites so the Internet might be awash with a huge amount of misleading, false or distorted things. In addition, with so much information in the website, people may find it difficult to search for the useful and reliable information which they really need. So yeah, that’s basically why I suppose not.

雅思口语话题：shopping

1. Why does shopping make people happy?

2. How do shops nowadays compare to shops in the past?

3. What are the features of a successful shopping center?

4. Do you think that men and women have different attitudes toward shopping?

1. Why does shopping make people happy?

误区：

这个问题其实比较简单，但仍然有一些同学可能会反而把这个问题想得很复杂，我们其实并不需要从一个非常专业的心理学角度psychological angle来准确回答，只需要做到“言之有理，言之有物，紧扣主题，自圆其说”就可以了。

思路：

一说起购物，我们可能就会联想到几个女士领着五颜六色的包包在很大的商场里面买东西。没错，就抓住你的这个第一印象我们就可以展开。

买东西，尤其是女性购买衣服，都是为了自己的形象image能够拿得出手look good，这样才会提升自己的魅力charm或者charisma，还有自信心confidence等等。其实不光是女士，男士在买车买房上也是比较务实的practical或者唯物的materialistic，因为社会上大家都在这么做，你如果不这么购置物品和别人保持基本的一致的话，在某种意义上来说，你还不够成功。

但是通过购买，你就可以获得成就感a sense of achievement等。我们还可以列举更多这样的例子，主语可以换成学生students，老年人the elderly，或者再确切点家庭主妇housewives，商业大亨business tycoon，都可以通过他们购买的特定东西来说明让他们快乐的原因。

Well, you know it's always a pleasant feeling to wear brand new clothes that look good. It can make your image better and improve your charisma, and people are more self-confident when they are pleased with their appearance. I think it’s understandable that ladies always try to buy new clothes. Furthermore, people are all becoming more and more materialistic: we all care about occupying good stuff like cars or big houses and even the latest version of iPhone, especially when other people have. If we can afford something fancy with our own salary, we will experience a sense of achievement.

语料补充：

几种在句中常见的表示递进的关联词，来替换and的单一性：furthermore, moreover, still, in addition, additionally, more specifically, besides, in other words, on the other hand, meanwhile, at the same time…

2. How do shops nowadays compare to shops in the past?

误区：

很多同学还是比较擅长描述现在的购物都是怎么样的。被我们聊得最多的也就是网上购物在逐渐代替实体店购物这件事。但是我们同时应该注意到，题目中出现了compare这个单词，就是要求我们说明两件事情，并作出一个比较明显的比较。而就不是单单说一方面了。并且是shop的为主语，其实更多的是想问实体店physical shops的今昔对比。

思路：

我们可以用一个最简单的方法来回答这个问题。就是先说过去是什么样子的，然后说现在已经变了，变成了什么样子。但是我们并不是特别了解很多年前购物是什么样子的。其实我们并不需要说的有多精确，只需要描述一下基本场景就可以了。比如，我们要去不同的商店买东西，一次跑好几个地方，举几个例子，说清楚就可以了。关键还是我们熟悉的现在怎么说方便了。当然你可以用网购来描述，但是更直观的对比是超市和购物广场这一个概念，我们可以在一个地方买到许许多多不同种类的东西，变得非常快捷。物品的数量也在增多，人们的选择也就更多了。

I suppose that a few decades ago, people had to go to different places to buy daily items they needed: hammer in a hardware store, pork at the butcher’s or clothes in a tailor’s shop. But I believe that the shop owners were also more welcoming and considerate. Nowadays, a superstore like Walmart or Carrefour provides every single necessity and these are extremely convenient for people’s living. And for sure, shopping malls are available wherever you go. I bet now there are a lot more shops than in the past. As a consequence, customers have way more options than they did 30 years ago.

语料分析：

hammer锤子 hardware五金器具，硬件 butcher屠夫 tailor裁缝

considerate体贴的

Walmart 沃尔玛 Carrefour家乐福

necessity必需品

3. What are the features of a successful shopping center?

误区：

我们遇到这样一个问题的时候会不会选择拿一个著名的shopping mall来举例子呢?如果你举得这个例子是你自己本身比较熟悉的，是专门研究过，积累过一定素材的就还好，但如果不是可能会出现越说到后面就越无话可说的情况。

思路：

其实我们并不需要说的多么的精准，我们只需要研究一下，究竟是什么因素使得一个商场成功。学过高中人文地理的同学们估计会第一时间想到区位因素，就是选址location，常用的单词就是locate和situate这两个，并且经常以被动的方式出现。另外，外观exterior和内部interior必须也得过得去吧，外面得时尚一些，里面要宽敞明亮一下，环境好了心情自然也就好了，谁也不希望特别拥挤的购买东西，显得没有档次。另外，也是最重要的，还是商品本身是优质的。当然，如果想加入新的元素也没有问题，比如售后好，价格低，种类全等等。

First of all, location is the crucial factor that affects it popularity. It should be conveniently situated for its clients. In addition, I bet a fabulous shopping mall should be quite modern and trendy for its exterior. But the interior should be spacious and tidy with large clean windows. This will create a comfortable environment and atmosphere. Most importantly, they should offer customers good quality products as well as service. If they do so, they will definitely attract and retain the shoppers.

语料分析：

popularity流行，普遍

conveniently 方便地

client customer shopper顾客

exterior/interior 外部、内部

retain保持

4. Do you think that men and women have different attitudes toward shopping?

误区：

这个问题与很多相类似于有compare, and, or一样的词有相同的思路就是不能只说单方面。就这个题来说，太明显就是我们应该分别说一下，或者每一个点都做一下男女的对比。而不能只说一个方面。另外要告诉同学们，当你遇到一个不是特别会聊的话题的时候，对比是非常有用的利器，让你的素材一下子增倍。

思路：

男女在日常中的很多不同最终都或多或少反映在你买什么东西上。所以同学们可以先回答这个yes-no question，然后对比一下，男士买东西比较理智，上街买东西是非常有目的性的，如果要是买不到还一直继续逛下去的话就会比较崩溃。但是女同志就不一样了，上街有可能是只看不买，只逛街还要有同伴可以闲聊，是放松的一种手段，也可能是看看最新的物件，还有就是伤心难过了买一堆东西解气。

Yes, there’s no doubt! Most men are more likely to spend cash in their hand sensibly. They only buy something which they really need with precise aims. If men shop for hours without any specific goals, they will definitely go mad and get tired of it. Whereas most women regard shopping for fashionable things as a routine. They shop with a few friends in order to chat and relax. Also, women are always curious to see what’s new or in even they’re not inclined to really buy them. So there are distinct attitudes and behaviors between two genders toward shopping.

语料分析：

回答一般疑问句时，如果是肯定的，我们可以用definitely，absolutely，that’s for sure, there’s no doubt, I really think so;如果是否定的，我们可以用no way, not at all, I don’t really think so, I really don’t think so等来回答。

还有一种水果，大家对它绝对是爱憎分明。

榴莲--durian

If you've ever smelled a durian even once, you probably remember it.

Regarded by many people in Southeast Asia as the notorious "king of fruits", the durian is distinctive for its large size, strong odour, and formidable thorn-covered husk.

The fruit's flesh is sometimes eaten raw, or is cooked and used to flavour a number of dishes and candies.

Some people regard the durian as having a pleasantly sweet fragrance; others find the aroma overpowering with an unpleasant odour.It smells like shit and tastes like farts...and gym socks. The smells evokes reactions from deep appreciation to intense disgust.

For whatever reason, people continue to be drawn to durian.

To durian lovers, the taste is mildly sweet, almondy and very creamy, not unlike a rich cheesecake. It has a whiff of alcohol about it, which explains why eating it gives you this hot feeling inside--like you've downed a shot of vodka.

You either hate it, or you love it. Intensely.
