雅思口語part2話題：Describe a practical skill you learned
You should say:
What it was
When you learned it
Why you learned it
And how you felt about it
都說技多不壓身，關于實用技能這個話題，對于多才多藝的考生來說并不是什么大問題，干家務這個不能算技能，考生要盡量明確實用技能的定義，比如會修理電視機算技能，但是煮泡面就不算了，除非你能煮出米其林3星那種級別。因為技能相關的內(nèi)容要具體，所以技能不能過于簡單，介紹時要說清楚。
技能是什么?什么時候學的，為什么學以及學會之后的感想。
來自小站雅思君的口語話題思路拓展：
作為一個文科生，很多人的印象只是會背文章，當然不，作為一個大學生，我可是多才多藝的，彈鋼琴，伴唱這些不算，我有一項實用技能是很多人不會的，那就是砍價，買東西砍價這個技能非常實用，省錢，但是很多人因為害羞不敢這么做，但是我敢。
好吧，這個技能是2年前跟我媽媽學的，她經(jīng)常去菜場買菜，跟小販們討價還價，比如買魚送根蔥，買雞蛋送個框，買衣服的時候一定要從半價還起。當然，這個技能到我這里就變成了談判技能，我覺得這個技能對我未來的工作很有幫助，一方面談判是溝通交流的過程，讓對方知道你的需求，同時你也能通過談判獲得好處，比如商務談判中會需要出讓一部分利益來獲取對方的信任換取長期合作。當然，談判也不能一味讓步，該出手時就出手，比如收購公司時，在價格上就一定不能出讓太多。
談判技巧是一個需要積累的過程，很高興在2年的時間里，我已經(jīng)逐漸掌握了這項技能，雖然我不會用來買菜。
如何提高雅思口語水平 雅思口語考試技巧大放送
雅思口語考試技巧一：改進發(fā)音
發(fā)音其實就是要你去發(fā)出正確的英文讀音。 當然，你應該首先要確保你的語調(diào)和節(jié)奏都是正確的---這不僅僅是關系著各自單獨的發(fā)音，同時還有他們在一起時候的發(fā)音。
改進發(fā)音有一個最重要的方法就是練習。
雅思口語考試技巧二：提高流利程度
從根本上來說，流利其實指的是可以毫不費力地敘述一件事情。 如果一個人在說話的時候比較順暢連續(xù)，少停頓或者是是不停頓，與此同時在說話的時候還沒有重復和更改現(xiàn)象，那么這就可以被稱為說話流利。
此外，與是否可以正確發(fā)音比起來，流利程度往往是與心理因素有著更多的關系的。 要做到流利的話你必須要對自己的詞匯量以及還要將每個單詞以一種合乎語法的順序組合起來有足夠的信心。換句話說， 流利度就是自己能夠非常自信地用英語去表達自己。 為了有效增加你的自信和提高流利程度，你必須要通過大量的工作來不斷的提高你的詞匯量和語法知識。
雅思口語話題：Mirror
Do you often look in the mirror?
Do you often buy mirrors?
Where do you put mirrors?
Do you think mirrors are a necessary decoration?
1. Do you often look in the mirror?
思路：可以回答經(jīng)常照鏡子，比如臭美一下，或者檢查有沒有眼屎，不然就丑大了;當然喜歡化濃妝的人，可能得經(jīng)常照鏡子，尤其是大熱天和暴雨天，眼線很容易花的。如果有同學說不怎么照鏡子，也是可以嗒，比如只有要擠臉上痘痘時才會想到去找別人借一下鏡子。
誤區(qū)：即使平時不怎么照鏡子，同學們也要試試進行一定的擴展，比如上一次照鏡子或者無意中路過瞥了一眼是什么時候啦，都是可以的。
語料：
look into the mirror 照鏡子
every now and then 偶爾/有時
check my make-up 檢查妝容
check my good looks 查看美麗的外表
check how I look 檢查下美不美
hair style 發(fā)型
with the help of… 在……的幫助下
get rid of… = remove… 去掉……
sleepies 眼屎
stick around 粘著
be addicted to… 沉迷于……
get smudged 暈染了
embarrass oneself 丟臉
范例一：
Well, sometimes! You know, I’m a lady and I’ve got to make sure I look good 24/7. Plus, every now and then I need to check if I’ve got any sleepies sticking around the corner of my eye.
范例二：
I guess so. You might not know this, but I’m quite addicted to heavy make-ups and that. So I kind of have to constantly check my face to see if I’ve got my eyeliners smudged. Otherwise I could potentially scare some people. Did that once actually. Was pouring that day, so my whole face was all gone.
范例三：
Not particularly. You know what, I don’t even own a mirror to be honest. But sometimes I do borrow other people’s mirror for a second just to check the spot on my face. Other than that, I don’t really spend much time looking in some mirrors.
2. Do you often buy mirrors?
思路：不怎么買鏡子，我的大部分鏡子都是免費的。要么是朋友給的，還有粉餅盒子，它們里面自帶鏡子的;或者是雜志里面送的贈品。
誤區(qū)：有的同學會就用粉餅盒子當鏡子，但是英文又不確定怎么講，沒關系的，稍微解釋一下就行‘I just use my face powder box or container, you know they always come with a powder puff as well as a mirror’
語料：
free gift 贈品
cosmetic products 化妝品
blusher 腮紅
foundation powder 粉餅
plastic wrapping 塑料包裝紙
范例：
Not at all. In fact, most of the mirrors I’ve got are free, I think. They are either from my friends or just came in some magazines, you know they always put some free gifts in the plastic wrapping.
3. Where do you put mirrors?
思路：可以按照化妝用的小鏡子和放家里的大鏡子一起分開講。小鏡子一般隨身帶，塞在手提包里就好了。放在室內(nèi)的大鏡子一般放在浴室啊，門口都行。但是不敢放一個大鏡子在臥室，因為恐怖片看多了，害怕;也擔心風水。
誤區(qū)：我們聽到題目可能會有些困惑，不知道考官指的是什么鏡子。其實這里也沒有必要去問考官他或她指的是家里那種大鏡子還是小鏡子，直接自己分成兩種情況去講就好啦。
語料：
hang… on the wall 掛在墻上
hang… in the bathroom 掛在浴室
be scared 害怕
horror films 恐怖片
all those years 這么多年來
avoid doing… 避免做……
范例：
Well, if you mean the baby ones for my make-ups and that, I always just stuff them in my handbag. But when it comes to the bigger mirrors, you know the ones you put in the house, I think I might prefer to have one on my bathroom wall or anywhere else except in my bedroom, cause I would be quite scared. You know, I’ve watched too many creepy horror films all those years.
4. Do you think mirrors are a necessary decoration?
思路：先回答yes，然后回答在很多商店都看到他們使用正面的鏡子，讓整個空間很大。所以自己也要在新的房子里安一個大鏡子顯得更寬敞。當然大家也可以回答no，說自己家都不用鏡子。一般都在等公交車的時候對著車站牌檢查發(fā)型。
誤區(qū)：對，大家沒有看錯，題目就是問鏡子是不是一個必須的裝飾物。其實可以嗒，大家想想很多商店都用鏡子讓整個店面顯得更大更寬敞，對不對。
語料：appear larger 顯得更大
look more spacious 看起來更寬敞
the size of… 和……一樣大
范例：
Well, they can be. I’ve seen a lot of shops using a massive mirror the size of a wall and surprisingly that does make the whole place appear twice larger. In fact, I might place some big ones in my new flat to make it look more spacious.
雅思口語話題：History
Do you like to learn about history?
Do you think history is important?
What historical event do you find most interesting?
Do you think the Internet is a good place to learn about history?
說到歷史，我們并不陌生，因為幾乎每個人從小就學習歷史。According to Wikipedia, History is the study of the past, particularly how it relates to humans. 也就是說，歷史是對過去的研究，尤其是和人相關的研究。
歷史在人類社會的發(fā)展過程中，起到至關重要的作用。它告訴我們我們是誰，我們來自哪;它讓我們穿越時間和空間去思考過去發(fā)生了什么，我們從中能學到什么;它使我們更好的了解這個世界。The history plays a vital role in the development of society. It gives us an insight into who we are and where we come from; it helps us stretch our perspective across time and space to think about what happened in the past and what we can learn from the past; it provides us with a chance to understand the world.
1. Do you like to learn about history?
這是一道喜歡或者不喜歡類的題目，首先我們來學習一下表達‘喜歡’的語言，題目中的like可以替換成be interested in; be into; be fond of; 或者用I find something interesting.不喜歡除了用dislike以外，還可以替換成hate; loathe; be fed up with; be sick of.
關于這道題，通常情況下，我們會回答喜歡，或者不喜歡。注意，答案盡量以Yes, I do.的形式出現(xiàn)，而不是單獨的yes。同時也可以替換成Yes, very much so; Yes, definitely; Yes, absolutely等表達。同樣，否定的答案，可以用Not really; Not exactly; 或者是，No, it’s not my kind of thing來代替。
若該題目的答案是喜歡，那么我們需要在表明傾向后加以解釋，通常是給出原因或例子。除了以上所講到的歷史的作用外，喜歡了解歷史的原因還可以是：The historical events are very interesting(歷史事件非常有趣);It can make us wise(使人明智)等。
若回答不喜歡，則也須講明原因，或者講明不喜歡的地方在哪。這里推薦給考生一個加分的表達：to have a love-hate relationship with something,意思是說對某物或是某件事情既愛又恨?；叵胛覀儾幌矚g歷史的原因，可能更多的是因為我們不喜歡以背誦為主的歷史考試，而非我們對歷史事件真的不感興趣。(I’m more interested in historical stories rather than in details of names, dates and places.)
范例1: Yes, very much so. I’d say history is my real love. You know, it’s easy for me to get lost while reading historical books or watching some documentaries. I find history very interesting, mainly because it helps me stretch my perspective across time and space to think about what happened in the past and how our ancestors experienced things.
范例2: Well, to be honest, I have a love-hate relationship with history, generally because I’m much into the stories and the insights it gives me into the past, but I’m really struggling in the history exams which are usually centered around dates, names and places.
2. Do you think history is important?
關于這道題目，相信我們大多數(shù)考生都會給出肯定的回答：歷史是重要的。其原因可以是以下幾點：
It allows people to understand how culture, politics, economy, society and values developed. (它使得人們了解文化，政治，經(jīng)濟，社會以及價值是如何發(fā)展的)
History not only deals with the past but also with how the past led to the present. (歷史不僅是關于過去，還關于過去如何導致了現(xiàn)在)
It tells us what happened in the past, so that we avoid repeating mistakes. (他告訴我們過去發(fā)生了什么，以幫助我們避免重復錯誤)
范例：Yes, I think so. History not only deals with the past, but also with how the past led to the present. So it allows people to understand how culture, politics, society and values developed. More importantly, since it tells us what happened in the past, we could avoid repeating mistakes.
3. Do you think you can learn history from films or TV programs?
了解歷史的方式有很多，比如看電影，讀書，看紀錄片，參觀歷史景點，上歷史課等。(There are many ways to learn about history, such as watching films, reading books, watching documentaries, visiting historical sites, and attending history classes. )。至于哪一種才是了解歷史最好的方式(the best way to learn history)，每個人心中的答案各不相同。
這道題目是問，我們是否可以通過看電影或者電視節(jié)目這種方式來了解歷史。目前，我們的電影類型有很多，比如comedy(喜劇)，action movies(動作片)，science fiction films(科幻片)，martial arts films(功夫片)，romance films(愛情片)，war movies(戰(zhàn)爭片)等等，至于電視節(jié)目，種類更是繁多，常見的有reality shows(真人秀)，talent search(選人才節(jié)目)，talk shows(談話類節(jié)目)，variety shows(文藝晚會)，sitcoms(情景喜劇)等等。這些影片或者電視節(jié)目多多少少的涉及了一些歷史，然而它們的主要目的還是以娛樂和教育為主(entertaining and educational)，以講述歷史為目的還要屬documentaries(紀錄片)。
回到題目，這是一道是非疑問類的題目，我們的答案可以是肯定的，否定的或者不一定的。然而通過上面的分析，這道題目回答No或It depends可能更容易一些。原因可能是有些電影或是電視節(jié)目會根據(jù)劇情需要對歷史進行改編(Some historical events might be rewritten by editors to satisfy the plot)，每部電影或者電視節(jié)目會站在各自不同的角度看待歷史，我們?nèi)菀资茈娪盎蚬?jié)目中人物和劇情的影響(They may show the history from different perspectives, so that we are easy to be influenced by the characters and plots.)，因此我們并不總是能夠從電影和電視節(jié)目中了解到歷史，然而記錄片除外，因為其涉及的內(nèi)容主要是歷史或科學(Documentaries mainly deal with history or science)。因此，從紀錄片中，我們比較容易了解真正的歷史。
范例：It depends. It depends on what the movie or program is. I mean, we usually watch some movies and TV programs in which some historical events are rewritten to satisfy the plots. In this case, I don’t think we can learn the real history. However, we may learn some from documentaries, which are particularly deal with historical issues or science.
4. Do you think the Internet is a good place to learn about history?
同樣，這也是一道是非疑問類的題目，無論我們的答案是肯定的還是否定的，都需要有充分的支持。例如，這道題目你可以回答‘是’(Yes, I think so; Yes I guess so; Yes sort of)，然后在給出理由，可以是網(wǎng)絡資源充分，且免費，查閱方便等等(give a convenient access to information on almost everything)。所以你經(jīng)常到什么樣的網(wǎng)站上去瀏覽什么樣的歷史知識。
除此之外，你還可以給出否定的答案(No, I don’t think so; No, I don’t think it’s necessarily the case.)，然后給出原因，可能是因為網(wǎng)絡信息并不總是可靠或者客觀(not always reliable or objective),也可能是因為網(wǎng)絡當中充斥著大量的誤導或虛假或歪曲的信息(be awash with some misleading or false or distorted information)，還有可能是因為網(wǎng)絡上信息量過于龐大導致很難找到真正有用可靠的信息(With so much information in the website, people may find it difficult to search for the useful and reliable information which they really need)。因此我們應當慎重使用網(wǎng)絡信息(be careful in using the information on the internet)
范例1：Yes, I guess so. It’s mainly because the Internet gives us a convenient access to information on almost everything we need. So I usually go to some news and education websites to read some information about history or other things.
范例2: Well, I don’t think it’s necessarily the case, mainly because the stuff on the Internet is not always reliable or objective. You know, everyone can publish their own ideas on the websites so the Internet might be awash with a huge amount of misleading, false or distorted things. In addition, with so much information in the website, people may find it difficult to search for the useful and reliable information which they really need. So yeah, that’s basically why I suppose not.
