交通工具的话题一直以来是雅思考试的偏爱,尤其是雅思口语部分争相出现的话题。在2015年时有出现,而在2016年虽然只进行了短短2个月的考试,但是几乎每次必中,可见其重要性。本文我们就来看看2016雅思口语高频话题之交通工具的相关介绍,供大家参考。
雅思口语part1的话题多半是生活中不可或缺的素材,虽然来源于生活,但是还是难倒了不少考生。其问题特点由难到易,有基础,有大层面问题,也有十分细节的问题,所以还是需要考生分别掌握。这里我们简单列举几个交通工具类问题来看看具体该如何回答。
问题1:What is the most popular transport in China?
“在中国最流行的交通工具是什么?”这个问题属于大层面的社会现象问题,虽然问题很简单,但是回答起来要很全面,不能想当然,要根据中国交通的现状进行阐述。高分答案如下:
It depends on which city we are talking about here. If it is a big city like Beijing or Shanghai, the most popular transport is the underground or private cars; while buses or bicycles are more welcome in small cities.
这里的回答就很现实,是根据城市的不同来定性的,一般北京上海这些一线城市基本上都是地铁和私家车比较多。而小城市则是公共汽车和自行车比较受欢迎。
问题2:What is your favorite transport?
“你最喜欢的交通公交是什么?”选择自己觉得最喜欢的,根据其优势进行描述即可。切忌直接回答,buses, cars, bicycles……,而无任何修饰内容。
As far as I am concerned, my favorite transport is bicycles. For starters, I won't be bothered by any traffic jams. And bicycles cause no exhaust pollution, which is quite environmentally friendly. On top of that, riding bicycles is a good way to work out.
这里的答案也是相当全面的,根据交通拥和污染方面做了简单介绍,其实也可以根据健康——可以锻炼身体展开陈述。只要是能够想到的合理的特点即可。这里运用的句式也不是单一的简单句,而是多种从句相结合的形式。
问题3:What are the advantages and disadvantages of bicycles?
这里紧接着问的就是自行车的优劣势,延续上面的优势补充劣势即可。虽然是细节问题但是相对比较简单。
The advantages of bicycles are no traffic jams, no exhaust pollution and it is a good way to work out. As to the down side, bicycles are not fast enough. It is something that bicycles can never hold a candle to planes or cars.
下面的问题基本上都是问关于其他交通工具的优劣势,如下:
What are the advantages and disadvantages of the underground?
What are the advantages and disadvantages of cars?
Do you love to travel by air?
下面我们以地铁的优劣势回答为例来看看具体的作答。
Off the top of my head, the underground is very punctual, convenient and economical(优势:准时、便捷、经济). But its nightmare is the time when people are jammed into a teeny, tiny compartment during rush hour. It is horrible that commuters are packed like sardines.(劣势:高峰期拥挤)答案不简短,但是也不冗长,却很全面。
以上就是几个有代表性的问题,供考生参考,其实还有很多此话题的类似问题也可以搜集参考,感兴趣的考生可以看一下,如:
How often do you usually travel by air?
Is there anything you don’t like about transportations in China?
Can you drive?
