雅思機經裡有一道題目是describe a person moves to a new accommodation，不是讓你說你自己搬家，還偏得是你認識的一個人搬家。對於我們身邊的孩子們，誰沒事兒就搬家哇!轉學生倒是有，可以搞一下對不對!即使身邊沒有搬家的娃，我們總聽過「孟母三遷」吧。這麼經典的故事，不用在雅思考試裡，簡直浪費了不是麼!我們稍微改編一下這個爛俗的故事，就是答案了!
My cousin just moved to a new place near her school.
She is about to start her senior year in high school, which means she’s under huge pressure 『cause the college entrance exam is just around the corner. So she needs a proper environment to prepare for her exam. However, the apartment she used to live in can’t give her that. I mean, her neighbors are party animals, and they always like to throw parties and play loud music at night, which made it really difficult for her to concentrate on her study. Also, there’s a homeless dog wandering around in her old neighborhood, and kept barking at night, you can imagine how noisy it was right? Plus, she had easy access to the Internet in her old house, which was a huge distraction for her. She couldn’t resist the temptation of those social networking websites and she always liked to chat with her friends online.
So in order to make her more focused, her mom decided to rent a new place near her school, for one thing, that would be convenient for her to get to school. For another, she could have a quieter environment to study.
Now in her new apartment, there’re only two bedrooms, and there’s no TV, no WI-Fi, so all she could do is study. Her mom is quite satisfied with the new arrangement, however, I’m sure for my little cousin, it must be a torture.
所以按照這個思路，我們還可以聯想到之前機經裡的一個noise話題，就說不得不搬離是因為吵鬧的鄰居和室友就可以啦!那室友的「罪行」好像更容易說一些，因為每天住在一起，都特別了解互相的「習性」。
那我們來看一下「奇葩室友」都有哪些令人髮指的行為吧：
1. 成天打遊戲不下床，還特別吵鬧。
2. 不注重個人衛生(personal hygiene)，不洗澡不洗腳不洗襪子(就是扔在地上都能立起來的那種)。
3. 在屋裡抽菸，每天煙霧繚繞。
4. 在屋裡養寵物(是的，大學宿舍都不讓養，但是也沒法阻止某些娃不是麼)，搞的屋裡的味道跟動物園一樣!比如狗狗還會eat their own poop，他的主人居然還跟他親親，所以就會讓你很崩潰。
5. …… (請各位根據自己的親身體驗自行腦補吧!)
下面的素材，供大家參考：
My friend Xiao Ming just moved into a new apartment off campus because he couldn’t stand the terrible environment in his dorm.
Here’s the story.
He had 5 roommates, so you can imagine how cramped it was. And you know how boys are like in college right? I mean, there was one roommate who never changes his socks, and he also doesn’t like to take a shower. And one of his roommates is a heavy smoker, the worst part is, he never smokes outside. So you can imagine the smell in his dorm, uh? It was unbearable. And it is really noisy as well. All of his roommates are big fans of video games, so every night the dorm is just like an Internet bar, you know, full of people who kept yelling and screaming to their microphones, which made it really hard for him to go to sleep.
And the most annoying thing was, a few weeks ago, some of them kept a dog in the dorm, who always made a huge mess and kept barking at night. Actually it’s against school policy, but he couldn’t tell on his roommates, you know, 『cause that would reflect badly on me.
So they left him no choice but to move away.
Right now he’s living in a studio all by himself, which is much quieter and cleaner than before.
如果還有別的搬家理由，大家還可以自由發揮，不過「對比」這個思路，是最容易把雅思口語時間填滿的策略哦，所以強烈推薦。
