Describe the politest person you know这个话题N年前就在雅思考试中出现过了,很多烤鸭看到它之后的第一个反应是,有礼貌的表现都有啥?或者没有礼貌的表现都有啥?再在前面加上not,就符合题目要求了。这个思路完全没错哦,不过不能单纯的罗列一群行为,这样凑到两分钟得挺难。所以在大致列举出行为之后,要针对某一个具体展开加入细节。
我们先列一下好的行为和坏的行为:
有礼貌的行为:
keep your voice down in public
offer your seat to someone on the bus
put away his cell phone when talking or eating with friends
compliment the host's cooking while you are invited to dinner
没礼貌的行为:
It's impolite to go to a friend's home for dinner without bringing a gift.
Eating food on a subway or bus is bad manners.
Talking with your mouth full is considered rude.
It's rude to cut in line.
blow your nose when eating with others
swear or use bad language
have an argument in public
show affection in public(当街秀恩爱,不知道从什么时候起这个变成了伤害狗的行为……)
如果还是达不到两分钟,别忘了,随便描写一下人物长相,可能会多说个二十秒……
The politest person I met is a high school boy living upstairs. He always wears a friendly smile on his face, saying hello to everyone he bumps into. He's not very tall, about average height, but he always works out at the gym, so he's well built, you know, with six-pack abs. I know that because he once taught me how to swim. Well, that's another story.
Anyway, his family is loaded, but he's not spoiled at all! I remember one time, when I just moved into the apartment, his friends threw him a surprise birthday party, and you know how wild teenagers can be these days, so at the end of the party, the whole building was in a mess, balloons and cakes were everywhere, and the worst part is, it was noisy and disturbing the whole time. Some of the neighbors were so furious because it was Saturday, and they needed to rest. I was like, oh, great, another spoiled rich boy. However, to my surprise, after his friends were gone, he and his housemaid cleaned all that up instead of waiting around for the janitor to do it. And he even apologized to me for all the noise they made. I thought, wow, what a courteous young man. He really made a great first impression on me!
And after getting to know each other, we became good friends; he's like a little brother to me and always helps me fix my computer and stuff.
(And he's going to college this year; I really hope he can do a great job in the college entrance examination.)
最后一句如果考官还不叫停可以接着说。这个“有血有肉”的邻居富家子弟,其实根本不存在,但是很多细节就显得说的像真事儿一样。如果再配上影帝级别的演技,考官肯定就被你拿下了。
Bump into somebody = run into somebody = to meet somebody by chance 例如:
Guess who I ran into today!
Well built = (of a person) with a solid, strong body
Abs = abdominals = the muscles of the abdomen
