很多生活在城市的小朋友，真的很少见到wild animal，但是如果你不是完全的homebody，并且经常进行一些亲近大自然的活动，其实还是有机会跟wild animal亲密接触一下的。

　  不过为了照顾大部分同志们的感受，还是先举一个可以发生在所有人身上的例子吧：

　　I’d like to talk about the time I saw squirrels when I was going hiking in a mountain near my hometown.

　　I was having a rest with my friends sitting on the ground, and one of them suddenly shouted, “Hey, check it out, a squirrel!” She pointed to a tree, and on a thick branch, there stood still a lovely fat little squirrel holding a huge pine cone.

　　We were surprised to see that little creature, ‘cause we hardly ever see any wild animals like that, I mean, at least in my hometown.

　　We were afraid that we would scare it off, so we walked quietly to the tree. And when we got closer, it just got cuter. I mean, we could see clearly that it’s got large sparkling eyes and bushy long tails. And its fur was fluffy and soft. And our guess was that she might be pregnant ‘cause her belly was really huge. And later, we saw another one on a nearby branch. We thought maybe they are a couple and they were storing food for the winter together.

　　We didn’t take any nuts with us in our bags, all we had were chips and chocolate, so we didn’t feed them. And we just left them alone.

　　But if it were 10 years ago, I would definitely catch them in a cage so that I could keep them as my pets, not now I believe wild animals are better off in the nature.

　　对于wild animal话题，在雅思口语Part 3可能会问一些动物保护相关的问题，例如Do you think animals have feelings and rights? 或者Do you think there should be laws to protect the welfare for pets and farm animals? 或者更深入的问题，例如What do you think are some of the benefits to humans from protecting wild animals? 这么看来，wild animal话题不光是雅思口语Part 2的一个大坑，在Part 3还有更烧脑的问题等着大家，建议大家提前准备一下思路和需要用到的素材。更多关于雅思考试的个性化问题欢迎咨询新航道官网
