資深的烤鴨們可能已經總結出了雅思口語Part 2的命題規律,那就是主語不變,各種變換形容詞,比較典型的題目就是電影啦,電視節目啦,廣告啦,網站啦之類的。今天就跟大家分享一下,如何用一個素材,來破三個話題:喜歡的電影,不喜歡的電影和印象深刻的廣告。
首先要跟大家介紹一部電影《京城81號》。喜歡林心如的同志們,一定都看過對不對?(沒看過的娃娃們請找度娘~)
我們先從電影入手,一般描寫電影的套路,就是先介紹這是哪種類型的電影,還可以說說很多方面和細節,例如導演是誰(directed by),什麼時候上映的(released in),是否是由小說或者真人真事改編的(adapted from),由誰主演的(star)等等。
無論是喜歡的電影還是不喜歡的,我們都可以用同樣的開頭:
I』d like to talk about a Chinese horror movie called Another World. It’s the first 3-dimensional movie/thriller I』ve ever seen in my life. I went to the movie theater with my friends when I was in the 9th grade.
首先,關於電影的出產國,如果題目讓大家寫一部foreign film,那麼請大家果斷的把Chinese換成Japanese。
然後,關於電影的名字,請大家千萬不要糾結到底如何把《京城81號》翻譯成英文,它不管叫啥,考官肯定都沒聽過,而且考官是不會糾結這個的,請大家放心。
再然後,關於電影類型,我們這裡來補充一下horror movie是恐怖片,thriller是驚悚片,suspense movie是懸疑片,還有大家熟悉的science fiction科幻和fantasy movie魔幻片。
最後,關於大家的觀影時間,如果以後考了什麼小時候看的電影啦,最近看的電影啦,請大家自行把9th grade替換即可。
下面的一步,就是扣題,如果是喜歡的電影,請用下面這句話扣題:
… and I was deeply impressed by the special effect and the storyline. 自然引出電影劇情。
如果是不喜歡的電影,直接說:and I felt it was completely a waste of time. 熟悉雅思考題的娃們,還記得這也是一個話題對不對?(浪費時間的事兒)
再下面一步,就是簡要介紹情節啦,而且這也是最佔時間的一段,不過話嘮同志們要注意控制自己,你只有兩分鐘…
It’s about a female writer who moved to a big old house, which belongs to her great grandfather. And ever since she moved in, she has suffered from nightmares almost every night. And there’s weird sound sometimes, like the rolling of the glass balls, and someone whispering. And the most thrilling part was, all her dreams were true, it was something happened in the past. Her great grandmother committed suicide in this house because of a tragic accident.
簡要介紹情節之後,下面再次扣題,說一說為啥喜歡這部電影:
The special effect was so real, and the sound effect was impressive as well.
My favorite actor XXX stared in this movie, and her acting skill was unforgettable. The twisted face and the screaming mixed with the background music nearly scared me to death.
This movie really didn’t let me down.
當然,還有那種萬能表揚套話,就是無論說哪部電影,都能用上的那種:
I』ve seen the movie a million times and it never gets old.
The story is excellent, the casting, plot, acting, lines and all the other aspects of the movie are superb.
The movie deeply touched me and became the best movie I』ve ever seen.
如果不喜歡呢,就針對喜歡的點,反著說,例如「五毛錢特效,毫無演技」啥的:
The special effect was so fake, and the background music was not proper at all.
The actors in the movie had no acting skills. Maybe that’s because of the lame plot which didn’t make any sense. They were just running around and screaming to the screen, which was not scary at all.
This movie really let me down, and it ruined my impression of 3-dimensional movies.
好了,現在再看看廣告怎麼編。開頭我們需要變一下:
I』d like to talk about a TV commercial which is like a micro movie. I didn’t get what the product was until the end of it.
因為是通過電影素材套過來的,那麼就得寫微電影式的廣告了嘛對吧。
之後情節照搬!
到結尾點題的時候,就要腦洞大開一下了:
For a moment, I really thought it was a movie, until the logo of the company showed up, and the subtitle goes like…
想寫什麼廣告,就編什麼類型的廣告詞:
「This is what happens in a haunted house when you don’t have insurance.」
(保險廣告)
「This is what happens when you don’t choose your real estate agency mindfully.」
(房地產廣告)
最後,再次點題:
Now I think about it, the idea of this commercial was really brilliant and hilarious. So t’s the most unforgettable ad I』ve ever seen.
希望大家可以通過上面的思路,想出一套自己的獨特萬能模板,輕鬆搞定雅思各種話題!同學們加油!
