雅思口语考试中不可触碰的禁忌
雅思口语考试中有一些话题是不可触碰的,这样会让我们给考官留下非常不好的影响,很多烤鸭可能在看美剧的时候,看到一些比较拉风的口语,但这些口语我们是考试中绝对不可能出现的!
雅思口语考试中不可触碰的禁忌
你会觉得,他的中文特别好,还是觉得,他特别冒犯人,觉得他盗用了中国的“特色文化“?
反之亦然。你用英语中的俚语俗语时,外国考官也会有同样的感受。
谜底是灯笼的谜语
记住,每门语言中的脏话,是这门语言中最地道的部分。是只有本国人才能使用的“国粹“。外国人如果贸然使用,会被本国人认为成对自己文化的一种侵略。
所以,下面这些美剧中你耳熟能详的短语,口语考试中,绝对不能使用:
1. Suck。Suck中规中矩的解释是“吮吸“。但是日常生活中,suck常常表达的意思是”糟透了“”逊毙了“”太菜了“”烂到家了“,是一个很粗鲁的词。曾经有个考生在雅思考试中被问”Tell m
e something about your hometown“,此考生回答曰:It sucks. 考官一口水差点没喷出来。说自己的家乡suck,无异于侮辱自己的出生地,是很雷人的。。。
2. Damn。如果英文中有一个词可以完美对应中文的“他妈的“,那就是damn。言情剧中男主角装酷的时候总喜欢说:I don’t give a damn。翻成中文就是我他妈的屁都不放一个。这句话是电影《乱世佳人》中男主角的经典台词,曾经被美国某杂志评选为“史上100句最经典台词”的冠军,曾经被无数电影抄袭过,但是,尽管有这么多的荣誉,它他妈的还是一句脏话……这种话是不能对考官说的。。。。
3. Holy系列,Jesus系列,God系列。不要随便调戏别人的神。你一个不信耶稣的人,在那里乱喊“看在耶稣的份上“,考官会想,我们的耶稣他妈的关你什么事了。。。
4. Ass系列。kick-ass形容词,极好,接近中文的“牛B”,是一个表示高度赞扬、却总让人不是个滋味的词……kick one’s ass, 动词短语,意思是把某人打得屁滚尿流,同样是一个让人听了不是个滋味的表达。。。。pain in the ass,名词,等于中文里的2B。。。。
5. Mess with sb. 美国人说“don’t mess with me“的时候,是带有威慑意味的。相当于中文
青春永在
的”老子不是好惹的“。Mess with sb. 有捉弄某人、惹某人、忽悠某人的意思。用这个短语会让你听起来像个街头小混混。
6. Piss sb. Off 惹毛某人
7. Cut it out省省吧
8. Get lost一个字,滚
9. Get over yourlf也不撒泡尿自己照照
10. Give me a break你饶了我吧
11. screw up ”搞砸了“的恶心版本
12. sick病态
13. freak变态
14. 把人比成动物的短语,一般都是侮辱性的:lucky dog(走了狗屎运的人), old bat(老巫婆)
, dirty rat(内鬼,老鼠)

The person I’d like to talk about is Davy. He helped me a lot when I was studying in the university. Both of us majored in Math, and he was also my classmate.
He was tall, hmm, around 1.79metres. He did know he had some advantages. He joined the school team to play basketball as a forward. I watched veral matches he was in, and all of our classmates would root for him. He always got good scores.专业资格证书
Though he’s awesome, in other aspects too, he's really humble, for he never showed off his skills no matter how good he was at it. I quite appreciated that. He had a good command of computer stuff, and to me, it saved my life at some moments. Once I was staying up late for my graduation paper, but I don’t know why somehow my laptop just broke down. I mean, it suddenly turned off, and it must go wrong for I couldn’t start it. I was driven to mad. What if I lost all my files, especially my paper? I have to finish it in a day. Tomorrow is the deadline to hand it in. I felt like it was a doomsday for me. Then, it dawned on me, Davy! Davy is a computer geek. Maybe he can solve it! I couldn’t wait one more cond and rang him. Thanks god, he answered the phone. After listening to my “heartbroken” story, he said he would like to help. Then we decided to meet in the library at 6.00, the opening time of the library. With his efforts for almost two hours, my laptop could work again. The luckiest thing was all my files were good. Saying thank you,
I grabbed my laptop and rushed back to my dorm to go on. Everything went well, and I handed in my paper in time.包拯简介
We would always support each other whenever help is needed. I think we are really good friends.
雅思口语P2话题答案:famous person that you are interested in
Describe a famous person that you are interested in反证法的例子
who this person is
how you know about this person龙之媒
what sort of life they had before they became famous
how this person became famous
and explain why you like this person
可以看出来,新题把此人以什么出名,换成了成名前ta的生活是怎样的和ta是如何成名的,问题更加具体了,也就是说,想要答好这道题,需要大家去搜一搜“明星档案",对这个名人的生活有更进一步更详尽的了解。
Steve Jobs
糖果屋的故事一. Who this person is
怎么开始part 2的描述?可以使用:Now I want you. 更地道一些的话,大家可以试着说When it comes to a famous person I take interest in, the first person that comes to 或者I would say Steve Jobs is my idol/icon(崇拜的人)。这样就自然得引出了第一问:who this person is, 但是千万别只扔个名字上去,名字之后可以使用定语从句添加更多人物细节(eg. ta工作的领域,特点等),如果想讲中国的名人,大家尽量使用英文名字,或者在中文名字后面介绍一下,不然你只说刘涛,谢霆锋,考官可能一脸蒙圈......
When it comes to a famous person I take interest in, the first person that comes to my mind is Steve Jobs. As we all know, he was the co-founder and chief executive officer (CEO) of Apple Inc(公司).
二. How you know about this person
这个问题很简单,大家根据实情说即可。
I got to know him through the speech he delivered at a commencement in Stanford University . I have to say that the speech was very inspiring and impressive.
三. What sort of life they had before
they became famous
这个问题在组织的时候一定要有条理(可以按照一定的时间顺序),有逻辑:eg. ...was born and At first,... Next,... Finally,...内容要基于事实,越具体越显得充实!比如,能讲出乔布斯在出生时即被收养,大学期间辍学,因为贫穷而住在朋友家的地板上甚至回收可乐罐赚钱,那么一个有血有肉的形象就跃然纸上了。
Before he became famous, Jobs experienced many hardships early in his life. His biological mother who was an unwed student, gave him up for adoption. He dropped out
of Reed College becau he couldn't afford it and couldn't e the value in it. The experience of being poor wasn’t romantic, as he recalled. He didn't have a dorm room and he slept on the floor in his friends’ rooms. He even returned Coke bottles to buy food with.
