雅思口语精选话题(推荐8篇)
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?
说到历史,我们并不陌生,因为几乎每个人从小就学习历史。According to Wikipedia, History is the study of the past, particularly how it relates to humans. 也就是说,历史是对过去的研究,尤其是和人相关的研究。
历史在人类社会的发展过程中,起到至关重要的作用。它告诉我们我们是谁,我们来自哪;它让我们穿越时间和空间去思考过去发生了什么,我们从中能学到什么;它使我们更好的了解这个世界。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?
这是一道喜欢或者不喜欢类的题目,首先我们来学习一下表达‘喜欢’的语言,题目中的like可以替换成be interested in; be into; be fond of; 或者用I find something interesting.不喜欢除了用dislike以外,还可以替换成hate; loathe; be fed up with; be sick of.
关于这道题,通常情况下,我们会回答喜欢,或者不喜欢。注意,答案尽量以Yes, I do.的形式出现,而不是单独的yes。同时也可以替换成Yes, very much so; Yes, definitely; Yes, absolutely等表达。同样,否定的答案,可以用Not really; Not exactly; 或者是,No, it’s not my kind of thing来代替。
若该题目的答案是喜欢,那么我们需要在表明倾向后加以解释,通常是给出原因或例子。除了以上所讲到的历史的作用外,喜欢了解历史的原因还可以是:The historical events are very interesting(历史事件非常有趣);It can make us wise(使人明智)等。
若回答不喜欢,则也须讲明原因,或者讲明不喜欢的地方在哪。这里推荐给考生一个加分的表达:to have a love-hate relationship with something,意思是说对某物或是某件事情既爱又恨。回想我们不喜欢历史的原因,可能更多的是因为我们不喜欢以背诵为主的历史考试,而非我们对历史事件真的不感兴趣。(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?
关于这道题目,相信我们大多数考生都会给出肯定的回答:历史是重要的。其原因可以是以下几点:
It allows people to understand how culture, politics, economy, society and values developed. (它使得人们了解文化,政治,经济,社会以及价值是如何发展的)
History not only deals with the past but also with how the past led to the present. (历史不仅是关于过去,还关于过去如何导致了现在)
It tells us what happened in the past, so that we avoid repeating mistakes. (他告诉我们过去发生了什么,以帮助我们避免重复错误)
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?
了解历史的方式有很多,比如看电影,读书,看纪录片,参观历史景点,上历史课等。(There are many ways to learn about history, such as watching films, reading books, watching documentaries, visiting historical sites, and attending history classes. )。至于哪一种才是了解历史最好的方式(the best way to learn history),每个人心中的答案各不相同。
这道题目是问,我们是否可以通过看电影或者电视节目这种方式来了解历史。目前,我们的电影类型有很多,比如comedy(喜剧),action movies(动作片),science fiction films(科幻片),martial arts films(功夫片),romance films(爱情片),war movies(战争片)等等,至于电视节目,种类更是繁多,常见的有reality shows(真人秀),talent search(选人才节目),talk shows(谈话类节目),variety shows(文艺晚会),sitcoms(情景喜剧)等等。这些影片或者电视节目多多少少的涉及了一些历史,然而它们的主要目的还是以娱乐和教育为主(entertaining and educational),以讲述历史为目的还要属documentaries(纪录片)。
回到题目,这是一道是非疑问类的题目,我们的答案可以是肯定的,否定的或者不一定的。然而通过上面的分析,这道题目回答No或It depends可能更容易一些。原因可能是有些电影或是电视节目会根据剧情需要对历史进行改编(Some historical events might be rewritten by editors to satisfy the plot),每部电影或者电视节目会站在各自不同的角度看待历史,我们容易受电影或节目中人物和剧情的影响(They may show the history from different perspectives, so that we are easy to be influenced by the characters and plots.),因此我们并不总是能够从电影和电视节目中了解到历史,然而记录片除外,因为其涉及的内容主要是历史或科学(Documentaries mainly deal with history or science)。因此,从纪录片中,我们比较容易了解真正的历史。
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?
同样,这也是一道是非疑问类的题目,无论我们的答案是肯定的还是否定的,都需要有充分的支持。例如,这道题目你可以回答‘是’(Yes, I think so; Yes I guess so; Yes sort of),然后在给出理由,可以是网络资源充分,且免费,查阅方便等等(give a convenient access to information on almost everything)。所以你经常到什么样的网站上去浏览什么样的历史知识。
除此之外,你还可以给出否定的答案(No, I don’t think so; No, I don’t think it’s necessarily the case.),然后给出原因,可能是因为网络信息并不总是可靠或者客观(not always reliable or objective),也可能是因为网络当中充斥着大量的误导或虚假或歪曲的信息(be awash with some misleading or false or distorted information),还有可能是因为网络上信息量过于庞大导致很难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)。因此我们应当慎重使用网络信息(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.

那天我朋友给我推荐了一款很火的减肥药,据说不需要运动,一天吃一粒一个月能瘦10斤,于是我买了3个疗程的药品,药丸很小一颗,吃完半小时就会去上厕所,刚开始的一周,我迅速瘦下了5斤,不过我每天都很累,因为吃的饭很少,但上厕所的次数很多,最后我累的只能躺在床上。当我的父母看到我昏迷在床上时,才想起来送我去医院,我在医院昏迷了4天,醒来的时候被告知自己因为吃减肥药过量而中毒,好在我只吃了一周,如果急需吃后果将不堪设想。从那之后,我住了2个月的医院终于恢复了健康,并开始按照医生的指示开始锻炼身体,半年后我的体重下降了,但我的精神却很好。我不再相信减肥药,我相信只有通过积极锻炼和合理的饮食才能真正达到减肥的效果。
雅思口语真题及思路参考:贵重物品遗失
首先,准备雅思口语真题前,一定要做好审题,先来看一下题目:Describe something important that you lost,确定话题核心要点:丢的是什么?什么时候丢的?为什么会丢,结果找回来了吗?丢了或捡回来了之后是什么感觉?然后我们来分析一下细节,你丢失的一定是一件重要的东西,可能是价值昂贵或者有特殊纪念价值。虽然这是一道物品类话题,但考生可以用叙述方式来描述,最终的结果:丢了会难过;找回来失而复得的惊喜。这样话题内容就变得很丰富,考生可以从不同的侧重点来描述话题,而不是简单的流水账。小站雅思君建议:雅思口语话题如何说的动人,吸引人一定程度上会影响口语分数,同时,口语话题的连贯性也方便考生备考记忆话题。
雅思口语真题及思路参考:6分考生适用
我是一个粗心大意的人经常会丢东西,比如交通卡,作业本啥的,虽然不值钱但丢了很麻烦。记忆最深的一次是丢了我的手表,这块手表是我打工赚的,才戴了一个月,要知道我打工3个月才买的最新款运动手表,防水,可以定位的机械手表。
上周五我搬家的时候丢了手表,我只记得前一天太累了于是脱了手表洗澡之后就睡了,第二天一早急急忙忙开始整理东西,到了中午搬家队来搬运东西,我上了车,结果发现手表不在手腕上,于是我搬完东西赶紧回出租屋内寻找,但是水池上,化妆台上、桌子椅子底下都没有。当时就很绝望,丢了心爱的手表的那一整个月,我都打不起精神,忘记时间,错过回家的末班车,真的是太不方便了。虽然后来我又攒到钱可以买新的手表了,但我依然念念不忘我丢失的那块手表,想象他也许在某个角落静静地等着我。

【整理】
记住很多帖子把part 2 的每一部分都总结的很长,没有必要,你只要一个核心词,举个例子:
描述一个 Describe a historical building/an interesting old(traditioanl)building in your country?
Where is it located?
What is it used for?
Explain why you think it is the most interesting?
太罗嗦,浓缩为一句话,历史古迹,完了,明白了么?你以最简单的方式归纳核心词,这样下来part 2的topic依然在8-90个,然后就开始归类。
【归类】
老师=一个尊敬的人=邻居=一个中肯的意见
一个你想学习的skill=你的爱好=你不擅长做的事=swimming、English.....。.一个家用电器=一个需要修的东西=一个你愿意省钱买的东西
以此类推,这样所有的topic差不多也就50个
在我的国家有很多的山川和绿地,不同的地形生长着不同的植被,北方有松柏,南方有乔木,但我今天想要说的确实非常缺少绿被植物的西北地区,那里有一种对于防治沙漠化非常重要的植物——梭梭树。
梭梭树是一种长得很像柳树的植物,生长在沙漠干旱地区,生命力非常顽强,它的叶子很细,根扎在底下很深的地方吸取水分,并且水分挥发很慢,是非常良好的沙漠种植植物。它能防止水土流失,扛风沙,在西北地区是非常重要的植物。
第一次知道梭梭树是在支X宝,凡是用支X宝进行线上消费、运动就可以获得积分,在获得一定的积分之后,就可以领养一颗梭梭树,这是一件非常有意义的事。要知道,沙漠化问题非常严重,过去只有部分当地人在治理沙漠化,但随着越来越多普通人的加入,西北地区的沙漠化程度正在逐渐得到改善。

这个具体的计划是什么,什么时候定的,为什么。
如果去做了,会有什么优点呢。(结果)
还有什么好处呢。
会有什么值得担心的呢。
别人有没有同样的想法。
以后要不要还要做别的计划。
误区:不确定时态的时候可以稍微去看一下you should say部分,给自己一些提示。比如这里一看大部分都是过去时态,那个整个的内容应该就是过去的计划。
语料:

一首我喜欢的歌曲是来自于周华健的朋友。周华健是90年代的一位非常出名的中国歌手,到现在也很受欢迎。这首歌是关于友谊的。就像歌曲里唱到的那样,朋友一生一起走。
A favorite song of mine is Pengyou, which is from Zhou Huajian, who was a very well-known Chinese singer in the 90s and still is. This song is all about friendship. Just like the lyrics said, friends, we walk together always.
我不太记得我第一次听这首歌是什么时候了。但绝对是很久远的事情了,大概是在我上小学的时候?我第一次听到这首歌的时候,我就被这首歌给迷住了,尤其是它的旋律和还有歌词。那个时候我从未听过如此纯净有积极向上的歌曲。那个时候还有一首叫同一首歌,也是很出名,但是在我心中还是这首歌曲最完美。
I can’t remember when I listened to this song for the first time. It was definitely very long time ago, maybe when I was in the primary school? The moment I heard the song, I was kind of fascinated by the rhythm and the lyrics. Never had I heard such a pure and positive song at that time. Another song that also made me feel good was called TONGYISHOUGE, but you know it’s not as perfect as this one in my mind.
我在备战高考的时候压力特别大,这压力来自于我的家人还有我身边的同龄人。那个时候正是这首歌让我坚持了下来。所以,我认为我喜欢这首歌曲的原因就是因为教会了我如何变得更加积极向上,我并不孤独,我什么还有很多朋友支持着我。
During the preparation for the college entrance exam, I got extremely stressful because of the burden I had from both of my family and my peers. It was this song that really helped me stick to it. This article is from Laokaoya website. Do not copy or repost it. So, I think the reason why I love this song so much is that this song teaches how to become positive and let me know that I was not alone, I’ve got my friends who would stand by my side always.
现在在中国我们有很多年轻有才华的歌手,比如TFBoys等等。但是我依然忘不了那个时候这首歌曲陪伴我的时光,它就像我的一个灵魂伴侣一样。
Right now, we have so many young and talented pop song singers in China, like TFBoys. But, I still can’t forget those days when I listened to this song and regarded it as a soul companion of mine.

雅思口语描述一首特别的歌曲
Describe a song that means something special to you.
You should say:
What this song is about
When you listened to this song for the first time
How often you listen to it
And explain why you think it is special to you.
思路分析:
很特别的一首歌:同桌的你。
歌曲的内容:可以从歌词、曲调,以及这首歌所表达的情感这几个方面来说。
这首歌为什么特别:可以联系这首歌的内容和自己的生活。例如,每次听到这首歌就会想起自己的同桌和与同桌之间的友情等等。
Sample answer:
In my mind, there is a song I particularly enjoy and it means a lot to me, whose name is the girl next to me. It is a folk song(民谣) sung by Laolang, a famous folk singer in my country popular in young Chinese people in particular, young college students. The singer expresses his missing to the girl sitting at same table of him in his school time. I heard it on a music website for the first time several years ago when I was in my dormitory. I was impressed by the beautiful melody(旋律) and the touching lyrics(歌词) and it is not surprising that the song is very prevalent(流行的) among the young college students like me on campus.
Each time I hear the melody,I will think of the lovely face of my desk mate ,a lovely girl ,in my high school, especially her sweet smile and her limpid(清澈的 )eyes. We have pure friendship then, and we often helped each other. She taught me English and I was better in math. We have much happy time together. After graduating from high school, we separated and communicated with each other once in a while. I wish I can sing the song with her if I have an opportunity and I believe It will be touching picture.
