一个知识贴,学会口语难题—环境类必备词汇!

雅思口语秘籍:

环境类词汇+表达

以及参考答案


雅思口语中,生活化的话题相对来说会比较容易回答,因为贴近大家的生活,素材比较多。很多烤鸭都害怕遇到一些非生活化的话题,其中有一大类就是环境类

环境类曾经出现的话题如《墨尔本无忧雅思口语机经》各大版本中收录的:

  • V51162004 A Law That Is Helpful For Your Country’s Environment; 

  • V51162016 A Place Affected By Pollution;

等等等等。

而一些看似和环境无关的Part 2话题,在Part 3中,考官也可能会出跟环境保护有关的问题。例如:

  • Part 2话题V51142032 A Wild Animal, 相关的Part 3 问题就是大量关于动物保护的问题;

  • 话题V51132025 A Seaside Place, 明明是让描述一个海边的地点,但相关的Part 3考官出的都是关于海洋保护的问题。

烤鸭们都表示,一听到这类话题就发蒙,什么也想不出来,根本不知道该怎么回答考官。

那么今天无忧小雅哥就给大家带来关于环境类话题的口语词汇以及sample answer,趴1,趴2和趴3类型的问题统统一网打尽。

苦于环境类话题的同学,赶快学习吧!!


Part 1-style questions


 

Examiner: Are there any environmental problems in your country?
Candidate: Yes … we have a serious issue with pollution levels in some of our big cities … exhaust fumes from cars and lorries are definitely one reason for the problem but we also have a lot of heavy industry in some areas and this also results in poor air quality …

Examiner: Do you take an interest in nature?

Part 2-style task


 

Describe an environmental problem that has been in the news.  

You should say

  • when this was

  • where the event happened

  • what actually took place

  • and say how you felt about this problem.


Candidate:  Well … this is an interesting question … there are so many issues I could think of …natural disasters like earthquakes and floods seem to be in the news almost every year … but there was one story recently about some animals that were under threat … it wasn’t focused on one place in particular … it was looking at various animals that could actually become extinct in different African countries … if we don’t take steps to protect them … these were really iconic animals like gorillas … leopards … rhinos … and apparently they’re now listed as endangered species …  what made it really depressing was they were in danger thanks to us … in some cases it was due to a loss of habitat either because people need more agricultural production … or even worse I think … because of hunting and poaching … I hate to think of future generations being robbed of the chance to see creatures like these in their natural environment … it’s lucky we have lots of organisations that focus on wildlife conservation … hopefully with their help we can put pressure on those in power to do something to stop creatures like these dying out …
