21年在口语Part1阶段似乎出现了一个奇奇怪怪的问题,考官往往会忽然给你来一句:Do you like animals?如果遇到养宠物的还好,某些初次遇见的考鸭往往直接慌了神,来了一句No,i do not like animals!瞬间尬住最终导致失分,那么我们应该如何合理去处理这种题型呢?又有那些技巧可以用在里面可以拿到高分呢?为盘点一下近期口语高热度话题动物吧。
一、常见问法
1. Do you like animals?
Yes, I love them. I much prefer them to humans. They do not go around fucking up the planet, killing each other or their fellow creatures for no reason, or wiping out the entire species. They will never lie to you, cheat you, say mean things to you, or in any other way screw you over. People will do this in a nano-second.
比起人来,我更喜欢动物。动物不会到处破坏地球,不会无缘无故互相残杀,也不会彻底毁灭某个物种。动物从不撒谎,从不说些卑鄙的话,也从不会欺骗。人类做这些那可是分秒的事儿。
解析:既回答了问题,又表达自己的观点,同时还升华了主题。
2、What do you think are the benefits of a child having a pet?
Pets teach children responsibilities, as they need attention, feeding and exercise. Pets also serve as a wonderful companion as they bring us relaxation, enjoyment and laughter. A pet is a good idea for children as long as they are old enough to manage it.
宠物教会孩子责任感,因为宠物需要关心,喂养和锻炼。宠物还能充当伙伴的角色,因为它们给我们带来放松,快乐和欢乐。如果孩子到了可以养宠物的年龄,养宠物是个不错的主意。
解析:回答问题过程中,将话题更加生活化,减少可能出现的语法问题,往往可以拿到高分。
