【范例】

Q: What’s your favorite kind of books?
A: Reading is one of my biggest hobbies and actually I read many different kinds of books. Among all those types, I like novels best. Some people may argue that stories in novels are all made up and not real. I do not agree with that. Though novels are creations of their authors, they still kind of reflect the reality since they are usually based some true experience.

Q: Have you ever given others books as gifts?
A: Yes, of course. As I have just told you, I love reading and also I love sharing with others. When I find that a certain book is interesting, I will always buy some and give them to my friends. To some extent, I think books as gifts are more meaningful than other things. The reason is that people who receive books as presents can really learn something from them.

 

口語part2話題解析
今天給大家解析的是一月雅思口語考試part2新題：
Describe a person you know that has made a contribution to the society.（描述一個你認識的為社會做出杰出貢獻的人物）
對于這個新話題，同學們可以把它和之前的身居要職的題目合并起來，在身居要職的題目中，即describe a person whose job is important to the society，我們需要描述這個人的身份，他/她的工作，你是如何知道這個人的以及為什么他/她的工作對社會很重要。在準備這個雅思口語話題的時候，我們也可以進行套用相應的素材和結構。

 

【基本框架】

所以整體的框架就可以定為，第一部分先說一下這個人的身份，他/她和你之間的關系，以及你們的相識過程。在這個部分也可以描述一下這個人的外貌或者性格方面的內容。
第二部分可以描述一下這個人的職業(yè)或者是他/她做過的一些事情，可以從他/她的工作內容的方面去進行擴充。擴充的時候也可以注意切合一下前面提到的這個人的性格。
最后一部分當然是最重要的，我們需要去描述這個人對社會做出了怎樣的貢獻，或者說這個人對社會的一個影響。

 

【范文展示】

I have a friend called John. From my perspective, he has made a contribution to the society. When I travelled in Beijing last summer, I met him by chance. We both chose the Youth Hostel to live in and we shared the same room at that time. Since both of us love travelling, we had many common topics and became friends quickly. After that travel, we often communicate with each other through e-mails.
He is a high school physics teacher. He is usually busy on weekdays with his work. But as a teacher, he has summer and winter holidays every year. Sometimes he will go travelling around the world. But most of the time, he will take part in a program called Supporting Education. OK, I will introduce this program first. You know, in China, many children in remote areas cannot receive any formal education because lack of teachers. So teachers can volunteer to take part in this program and give lessons to those poor children.
Though many people will think this is no big deal, in my opinion, he has actually made a contribution to the society. Firstly, he has given lessons to many children in remote areas. In other words, many poor children have received some formal education because of him. Education is one of the most important things in the world, so in this sense, he has contributed something. Besides, he has set an example for many of his colleagues. Many teachers of other subjects also have also taken part in the program and given lessons to those children. To some extent, more children have got some knowledge because of him. So I think he has made a contribution to the society.
