雅思口语当季话题卡:Describe a piece of good news you heard from others 从他人那里收到的好消息
思路点拨:以下思路仅供参考,希望大家根据自己的真是情况撰写答案。
该题目有两个信息点:good news和heard from others。好消息的类型有很多,比较容易扩展。大的方面如收到录取通知书、媳妇怀孕、中了大奖;中的方面有得了奖学金、暗恋的人向自己表白;小的方面有某人请吃饭、自己抽中优惠券等。第二个信息点heard from others是这个题目比较容易坑的一个点。字面上,我们很容易将其翻译为从其他人那里听说的东西。然后就想着必须是面对面的情况,或者最起码得是打电话的情况,从而将自己的思路限制住,僵在考场上。而从字典上的解释来看,hear from someone的解释为you get a letter, email, or phone call from that person, or that person tells you something。也就是说只要是其他人告诉你的,不论是通过什么样的方式,都符合题目要求。详细的思路扩展大家还可以参考下电子邮件和收到的重要信件这两篇文章。
下面是老烤鸭小编根据具体的题目要求,给出的参考答案:
Describe a piece of good news you heard from others
You should say:
What it was 它是什么
When you received this news 你什么时候收到的这个消息
How you received the news 你如何收到的这条消息
And explain why you feel it is good news. 你为什么觉得这是条好消息
我要告诉你的好消息是来自UCL大学的offer。去年这个时候,我开始申请许多英国大学,希望我可以到那里去完成我的研究生学位。我按要求提交完毕各种材料,开始了令人紧张的等待过程。7个月过去了,各个学校的申请窗口逐渐关闭。周边同样申请的同学也大多数都拿到了学校的offer。但是我申请的3所学校里,有一所已经明确表示拒绝,另一所将我放在waiting list 上,而我最想去的UCL还没有任何回音。我开始觉得可能我没有机会到英国读书了
The good news I am going to tell you is an offer from University College of London. About the same time last year, I embarked on the application for universities in the United Kingdom, hoping that I could complete my mater degree there. I submitted all the required materials and began the anxious waiting. Seven months had passed. The application windows of many universities gradually closed and a lot of students around me had received their offers. However, among the three colleges I had applied for, one had declined me, one had put me on the hopeless waiting list, and the last on UCL, where I wanted to go most, still had no news. I began to wonder that maybe I could never go to study in UK.
一天下午,我和我的室友去打羽毛球。中场休息期间,我开始向他抱怨自己的经历。这时,我同学过来,告诉我有一封我的信。它来自UCL招生办公室。我的心脏开始剧烈跳动,我禁不住的想,这不会又是一封拒绝信吧。我深吸一口气,尝试让自己平静下来。打开之后,它的开头写着亲爱的XXX,祝贺你。我如此兴奋,开始在羽毛球场欢呼起来。这吸引了很多人的注意。
One day afternoon, I went to play badminton with my roommates. During the break, I complained to him about my application experience. Right at that moment, my friend came over and said there was a letter for me. This article is from Laokaoya website. Do not copy or repost it. It turned out to be from the UCL student admission office. My heart immediately began to bump frantically. I could literally feel it at my throat. I could not help to wondering if it was another rejection. I took a deep breath and opened it. Right at the top, it stated that ‘Dear XXX, congratulations’. I was so excited that I started to whoop in the badminton court even before I finished reading it.
这封信改变了我的命运,我本来已经打算找工作了。但我终于可以实现自己的梦想。
This piece of news changed my life. I had been planning to work after graduation. But now, I will go the United Kingdom and realize my dream. That is why I thought I was good.
