在前面的文章當(dāng)中我們小顧老師給大家介紹過很多雅思口語話題素材，本期我們繼續(xù)給大家介紹下雅思口語Part3素材-貴的活動(expensive things)希望對同學(xué)們雅思備考有所幫助！

1.Why do some people prefer buying expensive things?

I believe that’s because some people

associate price with best quality, although it’s not always the case that if

you buy one thing with a hefty price tag, you’ll always get the excellent quality. That’s the mentality of some people, however, we can’t blame them anyway, since it’s been proven that most cheap things won’t last long. As for me,

I’d rather buy one expensive thing that will be usable for a long period

of time than spending on buying a low-priced item that is not durable. I think that way is more economical and that I believe has made people choose to buy expensive things over cheap ones.  

譯文：我覺得這是因?yàn)橛行┤藢r格與最佳質(zhì)量相關(guān)聯(lián)，盡管并非總是貴就好。這就是某些人的心態(tài)，但是我們也不能怪他們，因?yàn)槭聦?shí)說明大多數(shù)便宜的東西用不了很久。對我而言，我寧愿買一種可以長期使用的昂貴物品，也不愿買不耐用的便宜貨。我認(rèn)為這種方式更經(jīng)濟(jì)，這讓人們選擇購貴的而不是便宜的。

解析：用比較的方式進(jìn)行了拓展。語法方面使用了最高級、if句、被動語態(tài)、將來時、從句、比較急、現(xiàn)在完成時等多種結(jié)構(gòu)。

2.What kind of expensive things do people like to buy?

I’m not sure about that but I suppose people tend to buy expensive electronic gadgets, clothes, shoes, among others. Well, as you know a lot of people nowadays go for branded gadgets like those from gia

nt companies like Apple and Samsung, simply because they’re durable, stylish, and someti

mes serve as a status symbol. Also, some people want to dress in designer label clothes because those make them feel good and fashionable. I think it’s good to reward ourselves with some expensive things every now and then as long as we can afford to buy them, but having said that,

we also need to be aware not to splurge on expensive things that won’t add value to our lives.

譯文：我不確定，但我想人們會傾向于購買昂貴的電子產(chǎn)品，衣服，鞋子等。現(xiàn)在很多人都喜歡品牌產(chǎn)品，例如蘋果和三星等大型公司的產(chǎn)品，因?yàn)樗鼈兡陀茫瑫r尚，有時還可以作為一種身份象征。另外，有些人喜歡穿名牌服裝，因?yàn)樗鼈冏屓烁杏X良好且時尚。我認(rèn)為，只要負(fù)擔(dān)得起，時不時地以一些昂貴的東西獎勵自己挺好的，話雖如此，我們也要注意不要亂花錢在那些對我們生活沒啥用的東西上。

解析：使用了大量話題詞匯來拓展回答，提升FC和LR表現(xiàn)。

3.What are the advantages and disadvantages of being rich?

Oh, I can only assume as I’m not wealthy, generally,

as what the ordinary people perceive the rich, they have financial freedom which simply means they can afford to live way beyond their means.

That is, they can enjoy the luxuries or buy things they need or want anytime at least without worrying, unlike the poor people who can’t even afford. As for the different disadvantages,

I’m sure they have more obligations in terms of tax, their business liabilities, and the like. Considering those disadvantages, I realized that life is fair, rich people do have problems too like the poor ones, the only difference is that the degree of the problem. In other words, you may be poor or rich, there will always be challenges and there’ll always be reasons to be grateful for. So everything is balanced then.

譯文：噢，我只能猜猜因?yàn)槲也皇怯绣X人。一般來說，就像普通百姓對富人的看法一樣，他們有財(cái)務(wù)自由，可以買奢侈品，買什么都不必為錢操心，不像窮人那樣買不起。至于壞處，我想他們在稅收，商業(yè)責(zé)任等方面有更多的義務(wù)。考慮到這些，我意識到生活是公平的，富人也確實(shí)像窮人一樣有問題，唯一的區(qū)別是問題的程度。換句話說，無論貧富，總會有挑戰(zhàn)，也總有理由要感恩。一切都是平衡的。

解析：遇到不熟悉、一時沒思路的問題，盡管去猜，保持語流，不需要擔(dān)心說錯什么，只要是在表達(dá)自己的觀點(diǎn)、保持溝通的狀態(tài)即可。


解析：Part3題目的拓展，最好是能舉出具體的例子，這樣可以輕松做到7分評分標(biāo)準(zhǔn)里的speak at length，同時展示詞匯水平。如果你真的想考到口語7分，就多用點(diǎn)心，盡管考場題目可能和題庫有所區(qū)別，但話題是一樣的，大家仍然可以根據(jù)題庫題目的話題關(guān)鍵詞，去思考、搜集例子，準(zhǔn)備詞匯和短語。
