话题分析
这是一道人物类的题目,相对还是比较简单,在主角人物选择上,不建议大家去选择一些太耳熟能详的运动员,比如科比、姚明等,因为当很多考生都讲一个运动员的话,考官真的很容易审美疲劳。
如果有自己喜欢且了解的运动员,按照自己情况讲最好。
但是如果大家不知道讲谁,也可以去挑选一些有传奇色彩的人,比如最近威尔·史密斯主演的新电影《国王理查德》,讲述的就是网球天才大威小威的故事。
或者上面这些也不行的话,2021年奥运会上你看哪个运动员顺眼就去研究谁吧~
·
第一小问“Who he/she is” 他是谁
·
开头说一下自己想要聊的运动员是谁,可以讲一下TA的姓名、国籍和性别(不是性别歧视,毕竟有些运动还是区分男子项目和女子项目的),另外讲一下是哪个运动项目的运动员。
·
第二小问“How you knew him/her”你是如何认识他的
·
了解到一个运动员,大家可以从以下几个方面去拓展,最常见的就是在体育赛事上认识了这个运动员,被TA出色的表现吸引;还有是听别人说了TA的事迹开始认识,后面自己去做了深入了解;或者是看到了TA的个人采访,甚至是流传的故事都可以。
·
第三小问“What he/she has achieved”他取得了什么成就
·
要讲一个运动员的成就,最直观的就是TA体育赛事上的奖项,比如奥运会的金牌;或者是赛场上的数据,比如打破了世界纪录等;除了体育赛事上获得的成就,还有其他荣誉称号,比如“杰出贡献奖”、“终身成就奖”、“名人堂”等等。
除了上述之外,还会有一些运动员虽然不一定拿到了奖牌,但是对于国家在国际化比赛中展露头角是有跨时代意义的,比如中国第一位参加奥运会的运动员刘长春。
·
第四小问“explain why he/she is famous” 他为什么有名
·
本小题可以结合第三小问一起回答,从运动员比赛获奖情况和比赛数据等方面,在讲数据的时候,除了绝对值大之外,也可以用对比的方法证明TA的能力多突出,表现多优异。另外TA对于国人甚至世界范围产生了多大的影响,要从细节体现,比如各大媒体争相报道等等。

雅思口语P2——有名的运动员音频:00:00/01:11
The person I am going to talk about is Oksana Chusovitina, who is an Olympic gymnast (体操运动员) who has competed for the Soviet Union, Uzbekistan, and Germany. She is the only female gymnast ever to compete in eight Olympic Games
I knew her because of Olympic games. In the game of Uneven Bars, she stood out from the crowd (脱颖而出) not only because her perfect performance but also because of her age. It is very obvious that she was more than 30 years old in 2021 Japan Olympic games. I was wondering why a woman of her age still competed on the international sports arena because most of gymnasts are under 20 years ago. Out of curiosity, i searched for information about her on the internet. That’s how i got to know her.
She has won a lot of medals and championships including the gold medal in Olympic games.
The reason why she is so famous is not that she has won so many games and become the gold medalist(金牌得主). The real reason is that she has attended the Olympic games for 8 consecutive times(连续8次). She did so because when her son was diagnosed with leukemia(白血病)in 2002, and she decided to return to the sports arena to cover the medical fees. What a great mother she is! In order to save her son, she is willing to compete with younger athletes and spent another 30 years on the sports arena.
亮点表达:
Olympic gymnast 体操运动员
stand out from the crowd 脱颖而出
the gold medalist 金牌得主
for 8 consecutive times 连续8次
leukemia 白血病 |
