雅思口語考試常考話題詳解

 一、 Are you working or studying?

I am currently a college student. I am studying computer science in

Tsinghua University, one of the top universities in China。

Notes:好的回答有一定延伸。比如說在回答完還在學習的內容後,可以增加在哪裏學習以及學習什麼的內容。

I am working for IBM as an administrative staff. I’ve been doing this job

for many years and I still like doing it。

  二、 Tell me something about the school or university you attend。

Sure. I’m always excited to talk about my university, Tsinghua

University. Established in the early 1900’s by the Qing Dynasty, it has now

become one of the top ranking universities in China and wellrenowned in the

world. Located in the northwest of Beijing in Qinghuayuan ,once a royal

garden, it enjoys a marvelous natural environment. The campus is really big.

It is home to more than ten thousand undergraduate and graduate students. In

terms of learning and research, Tsinghua university provides the most qualified

faculty anywhere in China, and the best library and research facilities. The

last thing I would like to mention of Tsinghua is that it has a long tradition   of sending students to study overseas. Not only that it was first established   as a preparatory school for students to study in the US, but it also sends over

a thousand students each year to study abroad, US, Australia and other

countries. Thank you。

可以談大學的地理位置,歷史,教學和學術成就,校園外貌以及其他的任何方面都可以談。抓住什麼就談什麼,注意連貫性的掌握。

Well, of course. I study in XXX University. It is one of the largest and   best universities in central China. It has a very big and nice campus. Though   the university has been established for a long time, many of its old buildings   are now replaced by new and modern ones. With lawns and trees everywhere, the   environment of the campus is really good, making it a good college experience

for everyone who studies here。

Tell me something about your primary school。

The name of the school is XXX Primary School. It is not far from where I

where I used to live. It is a rather small one with only two buildings, the

main teaching building and an office building. There is also a playground

behind the buildings with several gym bars and a sand pit. I guess that’s

all I can remember now. Thanks。

Well, I don’t remember much but just a few things about my primary

school. First it is rather a small one with a size of 20 students in each

class. And there were only three classes on each grade at that time. Then the   playground behind the main building is also very small. I faintly remember that

there were a few things students could play with: a swing, a sand dune, and

a few other things. I used to stay at school to play there until my parents

come to take me home. That is pretty much of what I remember。

Sure. It is one of the best primary schools in my hometown. To get into

this school, one must meet certain qualifications and pass an entry test. But   it is certainly worth fighting for to get into this school, because the teachers

there are very experienced and patient, and almost every graduate from this

school can get into the top schools at higher levels。

沒有必要面面俱到,重點是談“something”,而不是“everything”。所以抓住感興趣的或者印象深刻的一方面展開論述就可以了。

 三、What is your major?

I major in Business Administration. And I find business is a fascinating

world to explore. I am studying hard and hopefully one day I’ll become a

successful businessman。

Notes:大學中的專業很多。首先考生必須明確自己專業的準確英文翻譯。如果考生不知道自己專業的準確英文翻譯,可以講一個較大的領域,比如“小麥植株培育”可以說是“botany”、“industrial farming”,或者可以講自己在某一個系別,現在還沒有分專業。

  四、Do you like your major and why?

Yes, of course. I like my major primarily because I am very much into

computer science. Since young I’ve always been fascinated by the stories of

future technology, robots and supercomputers. Secondly, IT is a huge market

with wide profit margins. It has created a new generation of billionaires.

It is promising major that is bound to bring me a good career in the future.

That is precisely why I like my major。

Not really. Actually I didn’t choose this major for myself. My parents

chose it for me. In addition, I find all the subjects I have to study for this

major very boring. I don’t think I can learn much from them。

Notes:如果喜歡,不要簡單的說“I just like it”,要有充分的理由,展現出自己理性的一面和邏輯的思維表達。比較常見的理由有三:1、有興趣2、相對容易學習和畢業3、有較好的職業前景

  五、What courses/subjects do you study?

There is a wide range of courses I study. Some are compulsory while others   are optional. The two major compulsory courses are College English, including   intensive reading, extensive reading, speaking etc., and College Math, including   calculus, probability and statistics and so on. In addition, I also have chosen   to study Art History and Psychology, which can all enrich my understanding of

human mind itself and the great works of human mind。

Notes: 高會考生可以按照自己文理科分科回答,大學的課程很多,可以大致將有選修和必修,然後簡單提及一兩個課程即可。例如必修課有:English, Calculus, Computer Basics; 選修課有:Art History, World Religions, Psychology。

  六、What is your favorite course/subject?

My favorite course/subject is XXX, because, number one, it is very interesting. Number two, it is not very difficult to study. Number three, it is also very useful。

類似於專業,喜愛單一的課程也可能因爲該課程有趣,易學以及有用。

What is the most useful subject/course?

I think English is most useful subject. Because today communication plays such an important role is people’s lives, especially when the world is becoming a global village, where English is the primary spoken language. And thus good training in spoken English gives a person a competitive edge and more opportunities than those who can’t speak it。

It is really a hard question. Though I don’t think all subjects are useful, yet I do think most of them can be useful in different ways and in different times of life. Nonetheless, I think communication skills are essential for one’s social and academic life; since English has become the lingua franca in global communication, I would say English, as far as I’m concerned, is the most useful subject。

和其他的題目相同,在直接回答完最有用的科目之後,一定要附加原因,這樣的回答才能滿足雅思考官的要求。這也是一個一般性原則。

  七、What would you like to do in the future?

I would like to see myself becoming a great businessman, using my brain to make money. I would always keep myself motivated to learn new things, to improve in all aspects of my business management. This may take me years to achieve. But I’ll never give up, for without vision people perish。

考生應該實話實說,不要過於誇張,譬如世界領袖什麼之類的',免得考官覺得該考生有狂人或者獨x者的特質。如果未曾認真打算過,也可以坦率地告訴考官,畢竟考官考察的是英文程度,而不是使館的簽證人員。

I haven’t fully planned it out yet. But I guess I would like to be an accountant who works in an ordinary accounting firm, for I don’t like too many ups and downs. I just would like to lead a simple and ordinary life。

老題:

What are the characteristics of schools in China?

Most Chinese schools, whether at primary, secondary or college level, are all very big in terms of student population, which I think is due to the large general population in China. In addition, most of the schools are public schools, though we have seen lots of private schools even colleges springing up in recent years.

考生總結一兩點即可,例如:中國學校學生多,班級規模大,雖然有大量的私立學校在近幾年涌現出來,但是大多數的還是公立學校。

What kinds of majors are available in China?

There are two main categories of majors: arts major and science major. Under the category of arts, there are business, law, language and literature for example. And under science, there are math, psychology, material science, computer science and many others。

中國大學專業一般以文理分科,文科叫arts major,理科叫science major,除此以外還有工科(engineering)例如:computer engineering,electronic engineering,mechanic engineering and design等等。

What do Chinese people think about teachers?

Teachers are generally respected in China. And there is even a saying in proof of this, “a teacher of one day is a father of a lifetime。”

Teaching is a very respectable profession in China. Because the traditional Chinese culture puts an enormous amount of emphasis on education, teachers are even dubbed a name “the engineer of human soul”。

中華民族是向來尊師重教的民族,對教師的尊敬有着悠久的傳統,古語有言:“一日爲師,終生爲父。”這便是很好的例證。考生可以通過教育對人成長的作用和父母親望子成龍的期望,映射出中國對教師的尊敬。

Is teaching a popular job in China? Why or why not?

Well, I believe it is a popular job in China. First and foremost, teaching is a highly respectable profession in China. There is even an old saying in proof of this, “a teacher of one day is a father of a lifetime。” Furthermore, teachers are also very well rewarded in many ways, both economically and spiritually。

當教師通常是一份穩定的工作,也是很多人的選擇。同時社會對教師在經濟和各方面的回報也是不菲的。
