雅思口語話題素材：等人的經歷

I would like to describe an occasion when I picked up my old sister on the Korea airport. That happened three years ago. Three years ago I worked in Korea. My old sister wants to have a trip in Korea. She gave me a call, telling that her airplane would arrive at 5 o′clock p.m. in Korea Inchon Airport.(我想描述的是，3年前在韓國仁川機場接姐姐的事情，三年前我在韓國工作，姐姐想來韓國旅遊，打電話告訴我，下午5點到達韓國仁川機場。)

On that day I arrived at the airport earlier. I noted with satisfaction that the plane would be punctual. But she did not show up. I think maybe she was busy with claiming the baggage, so I just played the phone game. But one hour passed I became a little worried. I determined to ask a help. Suddenly my old sister waved at me. Later I learned that she went to the bathroom and got a lost.(那一天我很早到了機場，沒看到姐姐出來，覺得她在等自己的行李，但是一個小時過後，姐姐還是沒有出來，我有些擔心了，正當我要尋求幫助的時候，看到姐姐向我招手，原來姐姐下飛機去了衛生間，由於不會韓語所以有點兒迷路了。)

雅思口語Part2話題：等人的一次經歷

Describe an occasion that you waited for someone.

You should say:

who the person you waited for

when you waited for the person

where you waited for the person

and explain why you waited for the person.

參考範文

Let me talk about an occasion I waited for my colleague in the airport, which happened in April. I was planning to take a business trip with a colleague. In that morning, I woke up early to get to the airport where we agreed to meet. I took a seat in the cafe bar in the airport and waited for him. One hour soon passed, but he didn’t show up. I was beginning to worry a bit then, hoping he would not forget the business trip or wake up late. I made a telephone call to him, but could not put through, which made me more depressed. I had no ideas but made another telephone call to my superior and told him about my current situation, he told me to fly alone if my colleague didn’t get to the airport in time in the end.

To my surprise, after I hung up the telephone, I saw him entering the gate of the airport slowly. I asked him why he came to airport so late. He just said he never hurried to catch the airplane, and told me that I should take easy. Oh, I doubted whether he lived near here. I really didn’t want to go on a trip with him next time

雅思口語話題“經歷類”應對方法

雖然是經歷過的事情，要講好可不容易。考生遇到此類話題，通常要麼講個三四句話就不知道再怎麼繼續，要麼東拉西扯讓考官聽着完全不知所云。想要在描述此類話題時做到雅思口語要求的”speak at length without loss of coherence”(有條理地講述一長段內容)，我們必須研究下話題卡上相關的四個問題。先來看兩個話題：

ribe an experience when you waited for someone.

You should say:

who you waited for

when you waited for him or her

where you waited for him or her

And explain what you felt when you were waiting.

ribe the time when others didn’t tell you the whole truth.

You should say:

when it happened

who told you the lie

what he/she said

And explain how you found out the truth.

從我用黑體字標出的疑問詞就可以看出，考官無非是想讓我們時間、地點、人物等要素加進來，完整地描述一件事情。如果你不知道自己必須回答話題卡上的四個問題，你可能會給出這樣的答案：Yesterday I waited for David. He is always late. I waited for him for half an hour. He was caught in a traffic jam…Then…Er…Hmm…(然後就沒有然後了)你也可能知道自己得回答給出的四個問題，但是給出的答案卻是這樣的：The person I waited for was David. I waited for him several days ago. I waited for him in a restaurant and I was really disappointed when I was waiting for him… Hmm…(又沒有然後了)。

事實上，你不僅得回答每一個問題，還得詳細地回答每一個問題。怎麼做?我們一個一個問題來看。

Who…?

這個問題其實是要求考生描述一下與事件相關的人物。描述人物，無非外貌和性格。你等過的一個人可能是你的朋友，你們認識很久了。他很有趣、很聰明，但就是不守時。把上述內容轉化成英文：The person I waited for was David, a friend of mine who I always turn to whenever I have trouble in life. He is a decent man with many creditable personal traits, like being humorous, sociable and intelligent, but constantly being late is not one of them. We’ve known each other for ten years, and not even once did he arrive early for our appointments.對你隱瞞真相的可能是一個商場售貨員，把商品的優點吹的天花亂墜，卻口不提它的缺陷。一個素昧平生的售貨員，你不知道他性格如何，至少可以描述下外貌：I remember that he was a young man in his late 20s. He was tall and lean, just like a beanstalk. He was wearing a smart suit, and seemed to be quite professional. When he started talking, I assumed that he was smart and really knew a thing or two about laptops.

Where…?

一件事情可能會發生在一個相對比較小的地方，比如這樣一個餐館：I waited for him in Coconut Paradise, a restaurant of note in this city serving Thai food. 請補充上它的地理位置：It is located on Changshu Road in Jing’an District, which is renowned for the long history and delicious cuisine restaurants lining the route.再順便描述下它有何特色：This has long been my favorite restaurant in Shanghai because of the relaxing atmosphere, thoughtful waiters, as well as the authentic Thai flavor.

也可能在一個相對比較大的地方，比如下面這個小島：The place I traveled to was Langkawi, an island of note in Malaysia.

It is located in western Malaysia, off the coast of Penang.

This has long been my favorite place to travel with my family because of the warm sunshine, hospitable local people and delicious tropical fruits.

When…?

事情可能發生在某一天，比如你的生日：It happened on my birthday. (你怎麼慶祝你的生日?)I made reservation in my favorite restaurant beforehand and held a party there. (誰和你一起慶祝?)I invited ten of my classmates and two of our teachers to the party. 你甚至可以補充上你以前是怎麼慶祝生日的：To tell the truth, I had never held a party for my birthday before. Usually I just bought a cake and shared it with my roommates.

但有些經歷，比如旅遊，可能發生在一段相對較長的時間時間，比如：The journey I want to talk about here happened last winter, November, to be exact. 此時不妨聊聊當時天氣如何：The temperature here in Shanghai had dropped to below 10C by then, and the annoying haze had hovered over this city for several days. By contrast, the weather in Xiamen at that time was much better, mild temperature, always sunny, perfect for people seeking for relaxation.

What…?

回答這個問題時，很多考生不會糾結講不出內容，而更多煩惱的是講不清楚。爲解決這個問題，考生首先得明白，這只是四個問題之一，只需要講30秒左右(視語速快慢，通常三到五句話)。其次，嘗試加入邏輯聯繫詞。英文裏的邏輯聯繫詞有很多，回答”what”這個問題時，通常採用兩種邏輯關係：列舉或是時間順承。

例一：(Describe the time when others didn’t tell you the whole truth.)

Q: What he/she told you?

A: He told me various advantages of the laptop. For example, it is equipped with a powerful CPU. Besides, he said that the graphic card is amazing, perfect for online games. He also mentioned back-lit keyboard, which would be appreciated when the laptop was used at night.

例二：(Describe an experience of receiving good service.)

Q: what service you received?

A: I once went to the restaurant on a rainy day. When I arrived, a waiter came to greet me, helping me to hang the umbrella on the wall and then wiped the rain drops off my boots with a piece of cloth. Then he showed me to the waiting area where I could enjoy some snacks and drinks. When I was finally seated by the table, another waiter came to me with a small plastic bag to put my cell phone, and a piece of cloth to clean my eyeglasses.
