大家好,今天我们将要一起来看一下一道非常经典的雅思口语第二部分的抽象类话题:描述一首你童年时期记得的一首歌(Describe a song you rememberred in your childhood)。
这道题目难度相对较大,我们需要尽量把相对抽象的题目要求通过举例子的方法变得具体,从而降低这个话题的难度。
首先,我们还是先按照5W的方法来把这个话题的思路搭建起来。
When
你是什么次听到这首歌的?哪一年?几岁?或者是在一个什么特殊的节日/比赛/纪念日听到的?
Where
你在哪里听到的这首歌?或者是这首歌是哪个国家的?这个话题我们可以讲中文歌,也可以讲英文歌,日语歌,西班牙语歌等等。
Who
这首歌是谁唱的?这里我们可以尝试简短地介绍一下这位歌手,我们可以选择一些知名的歌手,也可以说相对比较小众的歌手。
What
这是该话题的一个小小的重点,我们需要从两个角度去切入,当我们需要去描述一首歌的时候,我们分别需要介绍一下这首歌的歌词和旋律。
这里我们切记,如果讲的是中文歌的话,一定不要逐字逐句的去翻译歌词,我们只需要大概说一下歌词的大概意思就足够了。
比如这首歌的歌词歌颂了什么,或者这首歌的歌词有什么特殊寓意等等。
给大家补充一些描述歌词的形容词:
educational有教育意义的
motivational激励人心的
encouraging鼓舞士气的
meaningful有意义的
patriotic爱国的等
关于这首歌的旋律,我们要尽量讲清楚他的旋律的特点,例如起伏,节奏,鼓点等。
再给大家来补充一些描述旋律的形容词:
beautiful旋律优美的
euphoric悦耳的
pleasant令人愉悦的
it has a catchy tune朗朗上口的
it has a strong beats鼓点强烈的
it is easy to learn/follow简单易学的等
Why
这也是这个话题的一个重点,我们要着重强调这首歌对我们产生的影响,为什么这么多年过去我们依然可以清晰的记得这首歌。
我们可以从内因和外因两个层面去分析难忘的原因。
内因方面:我们可以说这首歌的歌词对我们产生了深远的影响,也可以说这首歌的旋律朗朗上口,让我们很难忘。
外因方面:我们可以说当年因为很多电视节目里,商场里,马路上大家都在放这首歌,因此给我留下了极其深刻的印象,所以很难忘。
我们一定要讲清楚自己对这首歌的评价和感受,结合自己的个人经历。
好了,我们搭建完思路和框架以后,下面一起来看看针对这个话题,我们可以讲什么素材。
首先,大家可能会进去一个误区,拿到这个话题,就想说一首儿歌。
其实不然,这道话题我们不见得非要讲儿歌,我们可以说我们小时候当年的一首流行歌曲也是可以的。
当然,我们也可以讲情歌,革命歌曲,摇滚乐都是没问题的。
下面给大家补充一些常见的音乐类型, 例如Rock,Jazz, R&B,Hip-hop,Classic,Countryside等等。
我们可以描述某位自己喜欢的歌手的作品,也可以说一个乐队的作品,国内国外都可以。
文末我给大家准备了一片sample answer,是1998年法国世界杯的主题曲,波多黎各歌手瑞奇马丁演唱的《生命之杯》/ The cup of life。
相信很多小伙伴都听过这首歌,希望这篇范文对大家有所帮助。我们下期栏目再见!
Describe a song you remembered in your childhood.
You should say,
When you heard this song,
Where you heard this song,
What is your feelings about this song,
And explain why this is song is so unforgettable to you.
When it comes to the song that I remembered in my childhood, I will definitely talk about the song called the cup of life. It is a latin style song from Ricky Martin, which is my favorite Latin singer coming from Puerto Rico, America. This song is really exciting and impressive because it is the theme song of the FIFA World Cup in 1998, France. The lyrics of the song is really inspiring and motivative. It mainly talks about the desire of a football player to reach success and the champion and all the sacrifice he has made in order to achieve this goal regardless of any hardships he might encounter. On top of that, speaking of the melody, it really has a catchy tune that everyone can easily follow it. The melody is really euphoric and the rhythm is so strong, I am sure after you hear this song you can not help to dance with it. The reason why this song is so unforgettable to me is that I am a crazy football fan and this song, which is a latin style song, just represents my football team, the Argentina National Team. Whenever I hear this song, it will immediately remind me of my favorite team. What’s more, at that time, I can hear this song in almost every restaurant and light pubs in my hometown, and in the TV programs, the song is also frequently played. Last but not least, the music video of this song is also quite innovative and memorable for the reason that all the plots are consisting of the extraordinary goals from the previous world cup games. Based on all the reasons above, this song will certainly be on the top my list when talking about the memorable songs.
