用英语描述《西游记》

Tang Priest and his three disciples (Monkey, Pigsy and Sandy) went to the west to fetch Buddhist scriptures. They met 81 difficulties on their way. 

Tang Priest was a kind person and looked handsome. Some demons, like lion and elephant, wanted to eat Tang Priest because they believed his flesh could make them immortal. Some female demons wanted to marry him. Monkey was very intelligentskillful and resourceful. He also had a network of powerful gods and Buddha. He either defeated those demons or asked other gods for help. Pigsy was lazy and liked chasing pretty girls. Monkey always made fun of him, so he brought them a lot of fun on their tough way. Sandy was faithful and ordinary, so he looked after their luggage carefully and took care of Tang Priest.

Eventually, they got scriptures and went back to the Great Tang. 

这是基础素材,雅思考生可以根据不同话题随机应变,跟孙猴子一样。注意加粗的是地道表达,看似十分简单,自己用出来并且用正确是需要功夫的。

童年喜欢的玩具

Describe a toy you liked in your childhood
You should say:
What kind of toy it is
When you received it
How you played it
And how you felt about it

答案示例:
I'd like to talk about a group of masks I received as a gift when I was 9. They are masks that looked like Tang Priest and his three disciples (Monkey, Pigsy and Sandy) from a TV series. They went to the west to fetch Buddhist scriptures and met 81 difficulties on their way. I was into the TV series, so my parents bought me those characters' masks. 

Tang Priest was a kind person and looked handsome. Some demons, like lion and elephant, wanted to eat Tang Priest because they believed his flesh could make them immortal. Some female demons wanted to marry him. Monkey was very intelligent, skillful and resourceful. He often defeated those demons. Pigsy was lazy and liked pretty girls. Sandy was faithful and ordinary, so he looked after their luggage carefully and took care of Tang Priest. Eventually, they overcame all the difficulties and got scriptures and went back to the Great Tang.

男生版:My friends and I often put on those masks and played different roles. I felt brave when I wore Monkey's mask and I wished I could be a hero like him one day. (191 words,讲流利了2分钟能说完)

女生版:My friends and I often put on those masks and played different roles. I felt romantic when I played those beautiful female demons. I wished I could marry a guy who was as handsome as Tang Priest.  (哈哈哈,别打我。就是举个例子,雅思不考真实的生活经历,考你用英语聊天的能力,经历和想法可以编,但是编出来的内容要合乎情理。)

有趣的谈话

Describe an interesting conversation
You should say:
Who you spoke with
Where you were
What the converstion was about
And explain why you think it was interesting

答案示例:
Last week, I had an interesting conversation with my roommates in our dormitory. We talked about a TV series we watched as kids. In that TV series, Tang Priest and his three disciples (Monkey, Pigsy and Sandy) went to the west to fetch Buddhist scriptures. They met 81 difficulties on their way.  

Tang Priest was a kind person and looked handsome. Some demons, like lion and elephant, wanted to eat Tang Priest because they believed his flesh could make them immortal. Some female demons wanted to marry him. Monkey was very intelligent, skillful and resourceful. He often defeated those demons. Pigsy was lazy and liked pretty girls. Sandy was faithful and ordinary, so he looked after their luggage carefully and took care of Tang priest. Eventually, they overcame all the difficulties and got scripture and went back to the Great Tang.

This time we talked about the dubbed version. We exchanged many expressions we learnt from the lines and talked about some of the plots. When those characters whom we were familiar with spoke English, we felt it was really funny. (183 words)

总结一下

雅思考的是使用英语这门语言的能力,针对口语第二部分,本文教了两招:

1. 经历可以编,但要合乎情理。

2. 同样一个素材,可以用于不同的话题。
