雅思口语高分模板：描述传统节日

1. What public holidays do you have in your country?

We’ve got loads of them, for example, the one that’s just passed was the National Day holiday, and then we’ve got the Spring Festival of course - that’s probably the most important one - which is at the beginning of the year, sometime around, like, late January, beginning of February, that kind of time. And uh, what else do we have? Uh…oh yeah, the Dragon Boat Festival, Mid-Autumn Festival, and um… there are a few others as well but I can’t remember them all off-hand I’m afraid!

我们有很多这样的节日，比如刚刚过去的就是国庆节，然后我们当然会有春节，这可能是最重要的节日，在年初的某个时候，比如一月下旬，二月初。时间的种类。呃，我们还有什么? 是的，端午节，中秋节，还有其他一些节日，但是恐怕我不能马上记住它们!

2. Do people in your country celebrate Christmas?

Um…it’s kind of hard to generalize, but I would say, to an extent, yeah. I mean, by and large, it’s the younger generation that tend to celebrate Christmas, but they don’t celebrate it in the way Westerners would. You know, in the West, people go to church, open presents, um…whereas over here, it’s kind of like, just, “let’s get together for a party, go to KTV…” that sort of thing. So it is celebrated, but just in a slightly different least that’s my understanding anyway!

有点难以概括，但我想说，在某种程度上，是的。我的意思是，总的来说，年轻一代倾向于庆祝圣诞节，但是他们不像西方人那样庆祝圣诞节。你知道，在西方，人们去教堂，打开礼物，嗯……而在这里，这就像是，“我们聚会开个派对，去KTV……”之类的事情。所以它是庆祝的，但只是稍微不同的方式。至少这是我的理解无论如何!

3. Do you like public holidays?

Yeah I do. You know, it gives me the opportunity to be together with my family for a bit, take some time off, so yeah, I always tend to look forward to them.

是的。你知道，这让我有机会和家人在一起，休息一段时间，所以我总是很期待他们。

4. Which public holidays do you like the most?

That’s a good question……. I guess I would have to say The Spring Festival, which I’m sure is most people’s favourite, the main reason being that it’s by far the most important festival in our culture. And so everything feels just a bit different during that time. You know, everyone seems happier, the streets are livelier, and it’s basically just like one long party which stretches on for a week or two. And, it’s also probably the only time of year you can eat and drink to your heart’s content without feeling guilty about it!

这是个好问题……我想我得说“春节”，我相信春节是大多数人最喜欢的节日，主要原因是它是我们文化中最重要的节日。所以在这段时间里，一切都有点不同。你知道，每个人看起来都更快乐，街道也更热闹，基本上就像一个延长一两个星期的派对。而且，这也可能是一年中唯一一个你可以尽情地吃和喝而不为此感到愧疚的时刻。

5. What do other people in your country usually do on public holidays?

I can’t speak for everyone, but I guess most people either stay at home or go travelling. And if you’ve ever stayed in China during a public holiday, you’ll have seen for yourself the hordes of people that flock to all the tourist spots, right across the country.

我不能为每个人说话，但我想大多数人要么呆在家里，要么去旅行。如果你曾经在中国度过公共假期，你会亲眼看到成群的人涌向全国各地的旅游景点。

6. What would you like to do during the next public holiday?

Umm…I haven’t really given it much thought actually! But seeing as I went travelling during the last one, I’ll probably just take it easy and spend the time chilling out at home. Something like that!

我真的没怎么考虑过!但是当我在最后一次旅行的时候，我可能会放松一下，在家里消磨时光。类似的事情!

7. Do you think public holidays are important?

Yeah, I think they really are, cos I mean, here in China, the public holidays are always on a certain festival, so it’s one way of helping maintain all the various customs and traditions we have. Just to give you an example, if you took away the Dragon Boat Festival holiday, it probably wouldn’t get the attention it deserved, and over time, people might simply stop bothering with all the customs that are associated with the festival, like dragon-boat racing. So yeah, I think it’s pretty important that we continue to have them.

是的，我想他们真的是，因为我的意思是，在中国，公共假期总是在某个节日，所以它是一种帮助保持我们各种风俗和传统的方式。举个例子，如果你把端午节假期拿走了，它可能不会受到应有的重视，随着时间的推移，人们可能会不再烦恼与端午节相关的所有习俗，比如赛龙舟。所以，我认为我们继续拥有它们是非常重要的。

8. Do you think there should be more public holidays in your country?

No, not really, if I’m gonna be honest with you. I mean, I think we have enough as it is. Almost every month there seems to be a public holiday of some sort, and you know, I think that’s more or less enough. There’s no need to go over the top with them , otherwise, ……. , I guess it would break up the momentum of our daily lives, if that makes sense!

不，不是真的，如果我对你诚实的话。我的意思是，我认为我们已经足够了。几乎每个月都会有某种公共假日，你知道，我认为这差不多。没有必要和他们一起过头，否则……我想这会打破我们日常生活的动力，如果这有道理的话!

　　雅思口语Part2变态题目详解--传统节日

描述传统节日作为雅思口语考试中的老生常谈经常被拿出来骚扰考生。它是经典题目“传统”的变形。雅思考生最常用的话题是春节，今天雅思小编为大家详解春节的说法。

策略：4W+1H疑问词法

4W— When, Where, Who, What, Why;

1H— How

【真题实例】Describe a festival that is popular in your country.

You should say:

What the festival is

What time of year it is

What people do during this festival

Whether this festival has changed in recent years.

【答题思路】以该例为代表的事件题最容易从时间，地点，人物角度入手探寻素材。话题卡本身会以特殊疑问句形式给出四个方面提示。就该题而言，what time=when, what people do=how, 对照4W+1H, 我们还可以自己加三点提示，即where to celebrate, with whom to spend,和why it is important to celebrate。那么内容一下子增加了近一半。

【细节详解】

卡片提示(4点)

(what)The Spring Festival, is one of themajor traditional festivals in China.

(when)It falls on the first day of the first lunar month.

(what to do)Ways to celebrate the Chinese new year vary from place to place, but generally speaking, setting fireworks and firecrackers is a shared tradition and people across China decorate their house with the red color.

(whether)In recent years, Spring festival is more like a time for family get-together and personal relaxation , not a tradition to celebrate.

可增加的内容(3点)

(where) Chinese people would like to spend the holiday at home, watching TV or playing mahjong.

(who) On this day, family members who study or work away from home all come back and stay together. It is a time for family reunion.

(why) It is essential to have such a festival to celebrate, coz it offers the working people a chance to slow down, to strengthen the family bond and more importantly, to remember their tradition.

　　雅思口语话题：节日的意义

Purpose of festivals and celebrations

Q: Why do you think festivals are important events in the working year?

Answer:

Yeah. It’s very important for two reasons.

For the country, it’s a time to remember our cultural origin and our historical past.

The whole country celebrates our root and it’s very inspiring.

We become so proud of our past.

I guess that’s why festivals are important.

For the individual, festivals give us a chance for relaxation as we often have a few days off. It’s a time of fun, meeting friends, entertainment.

So after that we feel like a new man.

In a sense, holidays restore our balance between work and leisure.

That’s also why we need festivals for China.

Q: Would you agree that the original significance of festival is often lost today?

构思:

节日的初衷: 庆祝传统, 承上启下, 结束也是开始

现在的节日: 人们繁忙, 感觉不到开始和结束的意义, 过完节,马上就再次投入到工作中, 有些单位甚至连节假日都加班. 人们也不在那么感动传统,倒是好好的利用节日放松了一下, 吃吃喝喝,购物,节日从tradition象 consumption过渡.更像是给了人们一个借口: 1. 放下工作 2. 奢侈享受 3. 见见好久不见的重要的人.

这么讲的话, 节日也挺好的.

Answer:

I think the original significance for festivals are to celebrate our tradition.

It’s an end to the old year and the beginning of a new year. So it’s a connecting day.

But today, people are so busy, they’re under so much pressure and they no longer feel the transition between the old and the new year. Some companies even ask their employees to come in on holidays. So many people begin to feel that festivals are just as common as the other days.

People no longer take the opportunities of festivals to honor their tradition,

but go shopping, go to restaurant to entertain instead.

So I think tradition is out, consumption is in.

Festivals provide people such an excuse to put down their work, to spend money and be extravagant (奢侈的), and to meet people that they don’t have time for during the working year.

So in this sense, even the original significance is lost, festivals are still exciting.

(163 words)

Q: Do you think that new festivals will be introduced in the future? What kind?

构思:

世界变化快, 人们拥抱新生活, 世界西方东方交融,

西方人开始吃饺子, 过春节; 东方人开始互相送巧克力和玫瑰花, 过情人节.

人们开始尝试新东西,可能将来也会考虑新节日.

这样精彩的节日不再是national, 而是international,这样不是很酷吗?

听说,有些人今年开始过 男人节 8.3, 很有趣, 有点傻,

但是不得不说也是一个新鲜 的尝试.

Answer:

The world is changing so fast.

People are embracing new lifestyles as East and West come together.

Westerners begin to eat dumplings with chopsticks to celebrate Chinese Spring Festival. And Chinese young people exchange chocolates and roses on Valentine’s day. So, you see? People are experimenting with new life patterns.

And it’s quite possible that new festivals may be invented or introduced.

Wouldn’t that be cool?

What kind? Well, I don’t know for sure because it’s the future right?

But I heard this year, in my country, some people celebrated the men’s day, which is on August the third.

It’s dorky. (书呆子) But it’s new and exciting, right.

Will it last? I don’t know.

All I know is that this is an interesting attempt.

　雅思口语 之节日篇

1、包含内容

节日类的话题，无论描述的是本国节日还是国外节日，考生在准备的时候，应该对以下信息有所积累：节日的日期(date)，例如春节是开始于农历一月第一天;来源(origin)或者庆祝对象(what to celebrate)，比方说春节是来庆祝农历新年的到来;如何准备(preparation)，可以谈节日到来前人们的迎接活动，像春节前，人们会购买新衣服，对联和足够的食材;怎样庆祝(how to celebrate)，描述人们怎么度过这个节日，在春节期间，人们会吃饺子(dumplings)，走亲串友(visit relatives and friends)，小孩子可以得到压岁钱(lucky money);以及这个节日背后的意义，春节是一个举国欢庆的节日，为人们回家团圆提供了机会。

2、注意限定

考生在节日类话题准备材料时可以朝以上提供的方向准备，但这并不意味着每道题都要一一答这些，还得是结合题目要求。例如Describe a western festival that you should say:what the festival is; when the festival is celebrated ;how you celebrate it and why you celebrate it.这道题目除了涉及我们上面提到的其中几个要素，还要注意到节日本身必须得是西方节日，可以是圣诞节，感恩节。还有一个侧重点是考生本人怎样庆祝它。为什么庆祝其实就是节日的意义。再比如，Describe a festival that you have heard about but never should say:who you heard about it from; what the festival is; when and how the festival is celebrated and whether you ‘d like to celebrate it.这道题的核心点是听过未庆祝过。注意时态的混合使用，何时听说到它需要用过去时，其他的可以用现在相关的时态，是否想要庆祝也可以联系节日意义来讲。
