文/长沙新航道雅思培训助教：赵瑾璟

1. 传统的建筑

可以百度百科或维基查询，先想一个自己感兴趣的景点。

例如大雁塔（Dayan Tower）, it locates in Xian city, which is a famous tourist resort and was built by Xuan Zang to store classics of Buddhism. it is regarded as a symbol of ancient capital. 先说这个景点的历史（many well-known poets have written a large number of poets to praise and eulogize it, such as Du Fu and Ceng Shen ），看到它的整体情况（I am extremely excited to see such a grand view）,再说我在此参观的具体内容。

2. 一个有趣的照片

可以讲自己在拍全家福或毕业照时摆的各种造型，或发生的趣事。（All the girls in my class wearing short pants stand in a line and show their legs with the same posture. We also throw our trencher caps up in the sky while jump as high as we can, it is very interesting to capture the moment. All of us jump with different postures. Someone jumps like a frog with two legs wide apart, someone like a snake with funny facial expression.） 具体描述是拍照的过程，最后总结自己的心情。（we really enjoyed ourselves and it will be a precious memory forever.）

3. 团体活动或俱乐部

开头段可以Well, concerning this topic, I’d like to talk about my trip to the planetarium with my friends. 或者Recently, a few friends and I are trying to decide on something interesting and unconventional to do. We come up with a list of ideas and start knocking them off one by one. We go hiking, skating, and to a few museums; but our expedition to the planetarium turned out to be my favorite and most memorable experience.

然后详细介绍活动内容,可以具体到某一次经历，此话题可以和一次激动的经历一起准备：The exhibitions were fun and educational regardless of your age or expertise. It was also worth to note how professional the makers address well-known subjects in a sleek, modern, and very engaging way. I learned about many different constellations, and where they are supposed to be visible from the earth because I am interested in studying some virtual relationships between a person’s character and his constellation. I opened my mind to the many theories brought forth about the creation of the universe, and gained a wider perspective about the existence of life. There is so much to be known about life outside our little world; my trip to the planetarium instilled in me a quest for knowledge，not restricted to knowledge in the sky.

4. 如何度过自由的一天

If I had a chance to spend a free day, I won't do anything special or taking any adventures. I just want to spend the whole day with my family. Therefore, I think going to a park with a big lake is a good choice because this is the best way to accompany my parents as well as do some exercises. Since we are always busy in work, it is definitely necessary to find a method to release our daily pressure and make us totally relaxed. For example, we can rent a two-person bike to enjoy the natural beauty or a boat to get some fish, and then have a barbecue beside the lake.

Going out with parents makes me feel we bound together. In addition, talking some interesting stories or having a heart-to-heart talk while we are boating makes me feel warm and harmonious. As a consequence, if having a free day, I will undoubtedly take outdoor activities, which are like living in the air and from which I can get rid of all the tension.

5. 一本你推荐给别人的书

这个话题先说书的内容，再说你为什么喜欢看，最后说你推荐给别人的理由。例如Pride and Prejudice, which is a novel by Jane Austen, first published in 1813. The story follows the main character Elizabeth Bennet as she deals with issues of manners, upbringing, morality, education, and marriage in the society of the landed gentry of early 19th-century England. Elizabeth is the second of five daughters of a country gentleman living near the fictional town of Meryton in Hertfordshire, near London. Though the story is set at the turn of the 19th century, it retains a fascination for modern readers and it has become one of the most popular novels in English literature and receives considerable attention from literary scholars.

 我为什么喜欢：I especially like its plot because it is a love story happened mainly between Elizabeth and Darcy. Darcy is a handsome, intelligent, but rather un-social guy, his aloof decorum and rectitude are seen by many as an excessive pride. He makes a poor impression on strangers, but is valued by those who know him well. Throughout the progression of the plot, Darcy and Elizabeth are forced to be in each other's company, causing each character to see the other in a different light. At the end of the work, both overcome their differences and judgments to fall in love with each other.

 我为什么推荐：This book tells us that we can’t judge a person by his first impression. It is very interesting as well as instructive. What’ more, its diction and writing manner are also worth of studying. Without doubt, it is a valuable book that is worthwhile to read.
