大连朗阁雅思培训—情人节雅思口语素材借鉴

下面为大家整理了雅思口语素材：Valentines Day(情人节)，同学们可在雅思口语part1、part2中借鉴使用。以下是详细内容。

St. Valentine's Day--February 14

St. Valentine's Day has roots in several different legends that have found

their way to us through the ages. One of the earliest popular symbols of the day

is Cupid(爱神丘比特), the Roman god of love, who is represented by the image of a

young boy with bow and arrow.

Three hundred years after the death of Jesus Christ, the Roman emperors

still demanded that everyone believe in the Roman gods. Valentine, a Christian

priest, had been thrown in prison for his teachings. On February 14, Valentine

was beheaded(斩首), not only because he was a Christian, but also because he had

performed a miracle. He supposedly cured the jailer's daughter of her blindness.

The night before he was executed, he wrote the jailer's daughter a farewell

letter, signing it "From Your Valentine." Another legend tells us that this same

Valentine, well-loved by all, received notes to his jail cell from children and

friends who missed him.

Another Valentine was an Italian bishop who lived at about the same time,

AD 200. He was imprisoned because he secretly married couples, contrary to the laws of the Roman emperor. Some legends say he was burned at the stake. February 14 was also a Roman holiday, held in honor of a goddess. Young men randomly chose the name of a young girl to escort to the festivities. The custom

of choosing a sweetheart on this date spread through Europe in the Middle Ages, and then to the early American colonies. Throughout the ages, people also

believed that birds picked their mates on February 14!

In AD 496 Sain Pope Gelasius I named February 14 as "Valentine's Day".

Although it's not an official holiday, most Americans observe this day.

Whatever the odd mixture of origins, St. Valentine's Day is now a day for sweethearts. It is the day that you show your friend or loved one that you care. You can send candy to someone you think is special. Or you can send roses, the flower of love. Most people send "valentines," a greeting card named after the notes that St. Valentine received in jail. Valentines can be sentimental,

romantic and heartfelt(真心真意的). They can be funny and friendly. If the sender is shy, valentines can be anonymous.

Americans of all ages love to send and receive valentines. Handmade

valentines created by cutting hearts out of colored paper, show that a lot of thought was put into making them personal. Valentines can be heart-shaped, or have hearts, the symbol of love, on them. In elementary schools children make valentines for their classmates and put them in a large decorated box, similar

to a mailbox. On February 14, the teacher opens the box and distributes the

valentines to each student. After the students read their valentines they have a

small party with refreshments.

For teenagers and adults, major newspapers throughout the country have a

Valentine's Day offer. Anyone can send in a message, for a small fee of course,

destined for a would-be sweetheart, a good friend, an acquaintance or even a

spouse of fifty years. The message is printed in a special section of the

newspaper on February 14.

大连朗阁雅思培训—雅思口语the politest person

大连朗阁雅思培训—雅思口语:the politest person Describe the politest person you know这个话题N年前就在雅思考试中出现过了，很多烤鸭看到它之后的第一个反应是，有礼貌的表现都有啥？或者没有礼貌的表现都有啥？再在前面加上not，就符合题目要求了。这个思路完全没错哦，不过不能单纯的罗列一群行为，这样凑到两分钟得挺难。所以在大致列举出行为之后，要针对某一个具体展开加入细节。我们先列一下好的行为和坏的行为：有礼貌的行为： keep your voice down in public offer your seat to someone on the bus put away his cell phone when talking or eating with friends compliment the host's cooking while you are invited to dinner 没礼貌的行为： It's impolite to go to a friend's home for dinner without bringing a gift. Eating food on a subway or bus is bad manners. Talking with your mouth full is considered rude. It's rude to cut in line. blow your nose when eating with others swear or use bad language have an argument in public show affection in public（当街秀恩爱，不知道从什么时候起这个变成了伤害狗的行为……）如果还是达不到两分钟，别忘了，随便描写一下人物长相，可能会多说个二十秒…… The politest person I met is a high school boy living upstairs. He always wears a friendlysmile on his face, saying hello to everyone he bumps into. He's not very tall, about averageheight, but he always works out at the gym, so he's well built, you know, with six-pack abs. Iknow that because he once taught me how to swim. Well, that's another story. Anyway, his family is loaded, but he's not spoiled at all! I remember one time, when I justmoved into the apartment, his friends threw him a surprise birthday party, and you know howwild teenagers can be these days, so at the end of the party, the whole building was in a mess,balloons and cakes were everywhere, and the worst part is, it was noisy and disturbing thewhole time. Some of the neighbors were so furious because it was Saturday, and they neededto rest. I was like, oh, great, another spoiled rich boy. However, to my surprise, after his friendswere gone, he and his housemaid cleaned all that up instead of waiting around for the

雅思口语素材汇总之端午节

雅思口语素材汇总之端午节雅思口语素材:Dragon Boat Festival(端午节) Qu Yuan The Dragon Boat Festival, also called the Duanwu Festival, is celebrated on the fifth day of the fifth month according to the Chinese calendar. For thousands of years, the festival has been marked by eating zong zi (glutinous rice(糯米)wrapped to form a pyramid using bamboo or reed leaves) and racing dragon boats. The festival is best known for its dragon-boat races, especially in the southern provinces where there are many rivers and lakes. This regatta(赛舟会)commemorates the death of Qu Yuan , an honest minister who is said to have committed suicide by drowning himself in a river. Qu was a minister of the State of Chu situated in present-day Hunan and Hubei provinces, during the Warring States Period (475-221BC)(战国时期). He was upright, loyal and highly esteemed for his wise counsel that brought peace and prosperity to the state. However, when a dishonest and corrupt prince vilified Qu, he was disgraced and dismissed from office. Realizing that the country was now in the hands of evil and corrupt officials, Qu grabbed a large stone and leapt into the Miluo River on the fifth day of the fifth month. Nearby fishermen rushed over to try and save him but were unable to even recover his body. Thereafter, the state declined and was eventually conquered by the State of Qin. The people of Chu who mourned the death of Qu threw rice into the river to feed his ghost every year on the fifth day of the fifth month. But one year, the spirit of Qu appeared and told the mourners that a huge reptile(爬行动物)in the river had stolen the rice. The spirit then advised them to wrap the rice in silk and bind it with five different-colored threads before tossing it into the river. During the Duanwu Festival, a glutinous rice pudding called zong zi is eaten to symbolize the rice offerings to Qu. Ingredients such as beans, lotus seeds(莲子), chestnuts(栗子), pork fat and the golden yolk of a salted duck egg are often

大连朗阁雅思培训—雅思配对类题型：段落标题配对题解题技巧

大连朗阁雅思培训—雅思配对类题型：段落标题配对题解题技巧段落标题配对题是雅思阅读考试中比较特别的题型，因为大部分的题型都是考查考生对细节的理解，而段落标题配对题考查的是考生对段落主旨的把握能力。而由于雅思的文章篇幅长，题目较多，而时间又非常紧张，因此这种题型对于考生来说无疑是一道难过的坎。在本文中，雅思阅读专家将针对这种题型，从出题特点、阅读技巧角度来分析它的解题方法。一、出题特点 1. 永远位于文章之前段落标题配对题是唯一的一个位于文章之前的题型，这意味着考官建议考生事先完成这种题型。因为对文章主旨的把握有助于考生更好地寻找文章中的细节。 2. 选项以短语形式出现，数量大于段落数，且为乱序在List of headings中，选项都是以一个短语的形式出现的，考生需要从中选出最能够概括一个段落大意或者主要内容的短语。出于干扰的需要，选项中一定会有若干干扰选项，需要考生去鉴别。另外选项全部是打乱顺序的，即与文章的顺序不一致。 3. 个别题目中会有示例；选项不可能重复使用个别文章中，题目中会有一个Example，会提示某一段的答案。由于选项不可能出现一个选项使用两次的情况，因此这个给出的答案即可以排除。二、解题步骤 1. 浏览文章专家建议考生，如果文章有标题、副标题、图片、小标题，则必须在做题之前仔细进行阅读，因为这些内容往往暗示了文章的主题，这对于考生把握全文大意、排除干扰选项会有一定的帮助。 2. 划掉示例中的选项由于选项不可能被重复使用，因此Example中的选项不可能再次出现，故没有必要浪费时间去阅读这部分内容。所以直接在这个选项上划叉即可。另外，对于某些记忆力不好的考生来说，也可以把这个选项所对应的段落做上记号，以免误读从而浪费时间。 3. 阅读所有选项，标出关键词由于选项是乱序，因此如果先读文章再去找选项，就有可能出现每读一个段落，就要通读一遍所有的选项这样的问题，最后发现把所有的选项读了数遍。因此，专家建议考生在阅读文章之前就先把所有选项仔细阅读一遍，并且划出关键词以便记忆。 4. 甄别干扰选项由于出题需要，考官会放出一些干扰选项，这里列举出两种常见的干扰选项：

大连朗阁雅思培训—烤鸭心得：在职考生如何轻松搞定雅思4个7

大连朗阁雅思培训—烤鸭心得：在职考生如何轻松搞定雅思4个7 首先简单介绍一下自己。我是墨大小本一枚，来墨尔本已有五年。去年8月份毕业，10月份进入一家local公司实习。出国至今共烤鸭三回，三回都是A类。第一回是在去年6月，第二回是去年11月，第三回是在今年1月(因为去年12月Melb的所有考试名额都像被抢不要钱的菜一样一抢而光)。第一次是为了赶着申请TR，于是匆忙地在final期间就去考了。虽然我只在考前熟悉了一晚上题型，但凭着对出国前那次烤鸭的痛苦记忆，这次只有写作6.5躺枪。这次考试让我确定了自己的基础，也让我明白雅思写作对我要拿straight 7的重要性，写作也就自然而然成为了我第二次屠鸭的重点准备对象。为了准备第二次烤鸭，我从国内带回来了四本作文书(其中发现只有一本有用)，后来10月份又请一个雅思老师帮我改了7、8篇作文，然后自信满满地报了名。不料考前失眠只睡了一个半小时，考试当天迷迷糊糊爬到离我家开车50分钟的NMIT(因听信谣言说这里出分高)。口语考官是个香港人，有口音，part 1一上来问我“plants”，我听成“plans”，手舞足蹈的答了两道题才反应过来，当场士气大减。结果口语果然悲剧6.5，但是这次写作进步了1分到7.5。第三次离第二次又隔了近两个月，期间虽然忙于工作、PY课、翻译课和回国探亲，我一直未对雅思准备有所懈怠，终于在第三次拿下四个7，提前解决了PR这件大事。流水账写完，接下来我着重谈谈我对雅思体会和备战技巧。雅思就是一门考试。考试一般就有公式，我总结的“雅思公式”就是：成绩=技巧+实力+发挥。这三项我是prioritize过的。发挥要看RP，只能攒了。实力嘛，众所周知，雅思评分系统分为了9个等级，6分的标准是competent，7分是good，8分是very good。大家可以回忆一下过去，如果你身边以英文为母语的朋友们时不时夸奖你yourEnglish is good，那么你离7分也就不远，只要准备考试的方法的方向上道了基本就没大问题了。听力&阅读：不要求你是“千里眼”、“顺风耳” 这两项是华人的骄傲，毋庸置疑。因为我第一次这两项就上了7，所以之后除了借来朋友几本剑桥雅思回家认真分析了下题型没有做过其他的练习。这两项的分数三次考试都在7.5到8.5之间徘徊，不算高也不太稳定。但为了本文目的的完整性，在我咨询了身边的4个8大神和这两项常年稳居8.5或以上的达人后，总结出来了两个字：做题。“没有别的”，达人说，“只有做题，我把剑4到剑8的题反复做了三遍，每一遍都有对雅思阅读和听力有新的理解。”“一定要保证你很细致的理解雅思阅读听力出题方式的特点，并且保持每周定量、限时的训练，这样才在考试时不会因为紧张而导致发挥过度时常。”4个8补充到。说到理解雅思出题方式的特点，市面上有一本书名为《雅思8分密钥：杨凡-雅思阅读20天突破》是我唯一看过的阅读书，也是我十分推荐给大家的。我第二、三次每一次考前都会把前100页的“雅思阅读各题型答题技巧”快速浏览两遍，不仅让我快速巩固了对各种阅读题型的记忆，同时让我知道在答不同题型时如何在文章中快速锁定阅读范围。但是无独有偶，这种“短平快”的复习方法下打开考卷的一霎那在知道自己的RP有多少。比如我第三次考试的阅读有两个题型就没有被包括在本书范围内，所以大家还是防患于未然吧，有时间还是要多做题。听力的话，大家可以看看有没有同类型的参考书。口语：学会忽悠口语一直是我最有把握的一项。从来澳洲的那天起我就乐此不疲的和世界各地、五湖四海的认识或不认识的人侃大山(各种马来音、印度音、朝鲜音和俄罗斯音也在一定程度上帮助我的了听力)。所以，Fluency, Lexical resource, Pronunciation这三项听力的Assessment Criterion我都基本都能满足7分的要求(自我测评很重要)。剩下来的就是来补齐Coherence和Grammatical range and vocabulary了。Coherence，很好理解，就是讲话要有条不紊，句句在理。雅思口语高分的感觉就是考生要soundwell-educated, 所以在口语考试的时候你经常需要用到“子曾经说过”这种既俗又雅的引入语。与日常口语不同

雅思口语常用背诵素材

口语常用背诵素材一，喜好和厌恶： 1.（释放压力）I guess most young people enjoy listening to music. It’s a perfect way to reduce stress/relieve stress. (*It’s a perfect stress-buster.) 2.（休闲）I think the best way to relax and kill time (kick back and relax) is to be with friends.

Summer is simply too hot and stuffy (*muggy), and you can’t stay out for two minutes without getting sweaty and smelly.

雅思口语考试临场发挥的一点建议

雅思口语考试临场发挥的一点建议人们常说台上1分钟，台下十年功。但很多雅思考生虽然平时雅思考试备考复习非常充分，篇篇因为心理素质不够好，导致临场发挥有失水准，结果成绩很不理想。下面就和大家分享雅思口语考试临场发挥的一点建议，来欣赏一下吧。雅思口语考试临场发挥的一点建议影响雅思口语(Fluency)流利度的原因多半在于中国雅思考试心理素质差，表现非常不自信。中国学生在回答为什么害羞不敢与老外交谈时最通常的回答就是：“我怕出错。”常见的症状就是一句话出口前，先想好中文，再在心里把它译成英语，然后再出口，这样即便是说出来的话滴水不漏，语流的连贯性上也大打折扣。口试是雅思口语考试，关键是交际能力。我们不能要求口语和书面语一样毫无差错。相反，如果口语说得像书面语一样四平八稳、准确无误，反而让人觉得不得体。雅思口语和书面语是两种不同的风格。考生既然进了考场，都是有备而来的。这时的最佳心理状态就是认识到学习语言不可能不出错。要相信人在情急之下的潜能超水平发挥。考官提出问题后，最好能在5秒钟内就开始回答。先放松后谈考试

因为雅思口语考试现场太过于紧张，导致没听清考官的指示。请注意，一定要听清楚考官的问题，否则，你怎么讲雅思口语尬聊进行到底? 在第一种情况下，考生通常是比较少和外国人接触，有“恐外症”。有个学生就是这样，一进考场就懵了，后来他回忆，其实大部分题目在之前接触过的机经中都有，只是当时太紧张，根本没有听懂。考官还很耐心地给他解释了题目，他都没有把握住机会。可见紧张是如何的误事。如果你也有这种情况，唯一的办法就是多找外国人聊天，克服对高鼻子蓝眼睛的恐惧。如果是第二种情况，你完全可以要求考官复述一遍题目(Beg you pardon; Will you repeat that, please?, etc。)，或者解释一下(What do you mean by that? etc。)，因为有的题目确实是考生从没考虑过的，提这样的要求是合理的，不会被扣分，因为这也同样是交际的一个方面，没听懂硬扛着或瞎猜，只能被扣分。问清楚问题再答总好过没弄清乱答。对自己的雅思口语水平要有信心其实，很多中国考生英语口语水平并不差，就是对自己期望太高。说话犹豫、经常停顿、不断重复同一个词，是考生容易出现的问题，也是最容易让考官扣分的地方，因为流利程度是最重要

大连朗阁雅思培训—雅思大作文范文之使用机器人的利弊

大连朗阁雅思培训—雅思大作文范文之使用机器人的利弊 Intelligent machines such as robots are increasingly being used. They can do many things that used to be done by human. Discuss the benefits and dangers. For centuries, people have fantasized that someday machines could have intelligence like mankind and work as faithful servants. Today this dream has come true in many fields thanks to rapid development in artificial intelligence research. Wonderful as this seems, machines have problems. To begin with, people lose jobs when machines take their places, especially in the mass production industry such as automobile business. In factories of the famous car company Ford, almost every step of car making is done by giant robots that work faster with higher reliability and precision than human labor. Because of the adoption of robots, thousands of workers are put out of their old jobs and forced to make changes in their work. Even such changes create job opportunities because robots need people to take care of and operate, the number of new jobs is much smaller than that of lost, thus causing huge pressure on the labor market and government. People become less smart because of the wide use of machines in their life. Nowadays people need to use their brain less than they did in the past. Everything is programmed and the only thing we need to do is to push a button or throw on a switch. This has given us great convenience but made us lazier and less smart. Everyone has the awkward moment troubling with the spelling of a simple word when writing with a pen. But with a computer, it will automatically proofread the spelling and grammar of your writing. So people become less concerned with learning things right. This is not a progress but a regress of our intelligence and culture. But machines have many benefits that nobody can deny such as great work efficiency and low cost of mass production. The workload that could take months to finish by manual labor could be done flawlessly by robots in minutes. We have more purchasing power to enjoy a wider variety of goods and services because of the reduction of production costs with factories using machines. Other benefits include that machines could do dangerous jobs for people in high risk businesses like mining and construction. To conclude, machines have many merits that make our life easier and more convenient, but they have caused many problems such as undercutting our job opportunities and overdependence on machines.

大连朗阁雅思培训— 我的雅思经验

大连朗阁雅思培训—我的雅思经验每次屠鸭之旅都是一场与雅思艰苦卓绝的战斗，相信只有有勇有谋者才能坚持到最后！口语口语，第一次口语考试是裸考，毋庸置疑，我光荣的当了一次炮灰。千万不要裸考！浪费钱！浪费钱！浪费钱！考完之后，我摆正态度，认真迎接了下一次考试。首先练习语调，让自己更贴近native Speaker而不是naive Speaker。准确的练好音标，然后是单词，最后是句子，这是最基础的。然后就是模仿啦，模仿的多了，素材也多了，语调也更加好听了。其次，那怎么样让你说出来的东西更加连贯呢？看看美剧，英剧，咱们就可以发现，一方面是他们的台词背的真的很好，另一方面，他们用了很多小短句让自己有思考怎么讲下一句的时间。当我们不知道说什么的时候就可以用到这一招啦！On top of that ,...What is more,...Actually...In fact,...Well,that is tricky question,......is beyond description.Alternatively(换句话说）To cut a long story short(长话短说）再者，准备口语素材是非常非常重要的一点，我将七悠雅思口语素材的PDF格式打印下来，每天看3至4篇，每一篇我都用红笔改动，毕竟用素材的不止你一个人，如果直接生搬硬套风险太大，素材的存在是为了拓展我们的思路，而不是直接用。我是用一整块时间去练习口语，平时就对着空气自问自答。不要怕尴尬，因为口语本来就是一个与陌生人交流的过程。当然，零碎时间也不要放过，可以用来背单词，如果背单词很枯燥，就在手机上的七悠雅思上看一看素材以及机经，最后你会发现，很多题目你都可以用同一个素材，只要稍作改动即可，替咱们备考节省了大量的时间。最后就是上战场啦，深呼吸，自信微笑。Part 2 部分，这里要注意啦！考官给咱们1 minute的时候，要表演的好像你真的经历过这件事情一样。part 3大多是问公众的观点，所以就不要再I think...，一定要有内容，不要说许多空话，提一点建设的意见，不要对某个观点很偏执，毕竟是大多数人的观点而不是你一个人的想法。终于快结束啦，之前依旧礼貌地说一句“have a nice day,sir!”于是，口语完美收官~ 写作写作，鉴于很多读者看文章都虎头蛇尾，所以把难搞的两项放在了前面，老烤鸭都知道从5.5到6.0是一条大沟~那又如何逾越这条沟壑呢？首先积累词组，词汇，吸词大法好（记忆单词的时候一定不要图快，毕竟心急吃不了热豆腐，建议少量多次，并用新单词造句，避免以后出现那种似曾相识却不知道它怎么用的尴尬情况）再者就是看考官范文，看范文的目的不仅是看句型语法，更重要的是头脑风暴~拓展你的思路以及观点（仅对脑洞不大的烤鸭）最后，在考前2个星期就可以狂写作文了，写完一定要改！敲黑板！！！被改过的作文一定要常看，毕竟是你创造的它，优缺点自然有底。九大话题一定要刷完，替换词少不了，各种替换一定要体现到，让考官知道你的词汇是如此的灵活多变~那么6+一定是没有问题的。至于先写大作文还是小作文，我是深有体会啊，第一次没有写完作文就是因为小作文很难，先易后难！敲烂黑板！！！考前大量的定时练习少不了，这也可以避免作文写不完的情况发生。听力听力，第一次接触到雅思听力的我内心是拒绝的，虽然没有那种觉得自己是外星人的感觉，但是他们为什么说的辣么快！都还没写下来这一题，下一题又错过了！有木有！（摊手）练习+精听就是套路，全都是套路！主攻
