  雅思口语里最近总问a dream home you would like to have,既然是“梦想”,就可以不切实际,就可以异想天开。“瞎说”对于考生来说,总归要比“描述”简单。所以尽管发挥自己的想象力吧,别太玄乎就OK。如果想象力有限,就去查一下比尔盖茨的房子,说不定灵感就来了!
  My dream home should be a 2-story beach house. The walls are made of glass, and there would be a pair of French windows that leads to my front yard. I'm a huge fan of growing flowers, like roses and sunflowers, so my front yard must be like a garden.
  When you step into my house, you would see my dining room and a fully equipped kitchen. I'm a big foodie, so I think I would hire a professional cook to make dishes for me, to satisfy my appetite, you know. And next to the kitchen, there's my guest room, and the window should face the front yard, to make sure the views outside the window are pleasant.
  My bedroom should be on the second floor, and the ceiling in my room can be opened, and by that I mean, if I want to see the stars at night, I could actually lie on my bed and admire the starry sky, sounds awesome, uh!
  Oh, and the most important thing is, the glass walls I mentioned earlier come with special effects, I mean, it works by remote control, if I want to live in a forest, there would be pictures of woods showing up on the walls, which means, I could choose to live wherever I want. I know it's not real, but it just feels good.
  Oh, and I have to have an automatic maid who can clean up the house and take care of all the household chores. I'm pretty sure in the foreseeable future, that's quite possible.
  I know a house like this is way out of my league right now, but maybe one day when I'm rich enough, I could afford one.
