2020年5-8月 雅思口语 Part 2 Topic 42 想了解的国家/文化(5-8月新题)

Describe a foreign country (culture) you want to know more about

• You should say:
• What country (culture) it is
• What you want to know more about
• And explain why you want to know more about it

A foreign country I want to know more about is Scotland. I have a longing to travel there. The reason why I’d like to go to Scotland is that there’s so much history and the countryside is beautiful. I’d like to go in September because I don’t think it would be as crowded with tourists.

Scotland is a big island. I’d like to start right at the top of the island, close to Loch Ness. Maybe I could get a chance to see Nessie, the Loch Ness monster! I don’t know if she really exists, but there’s so much lore about her, I would just like to learn more. I’d also like to see some traditional dance because I know that the Scottish would wear skirts to dance, celebrate and fight in war! It is very interesting because it is their own unique culture and nobody else in the world would do this

Another reason I want to go there is because I enjoy driving along the coastline of an island. Scotland is a big island country with very long coastline. I would enjoy exploring this part of the world alone.

Finally, I think the highlight of the trip would be to meet new people and getting to practice my English skills in conversation. I think it would be a great opportunity to enjoy seeing a beautiful country and challenging my ability of travelling alone in a strange country, at the same time.

中文思路：

我想进一步了解的国家是苏格兰。我非常渴望去那里旅游。我想去苏格兰的原因是那里有悠久的历史 和美丽的乡村。我想9月份去，因为那样游客就不会那么多了。

苏格兰是一个大岛。我想从靠近尼斯湖的顶端开始。也许我可以有机会去看看尼斯湖水怪!我不知道它 是否真的存在，但是关于她的传说太多了，我只是想多了解一下。我还想看一些传统舞蹈，因为我知 道苏格兰人会穿裙子跳舞、庆祝和打仗!这很有趣，因为这是他们自己独特的文化，世界上没有其他人 会这样做

我想去那里的另一个原因是我喜欢沿着岛屿的海岸线开车。苏格兰是一个有很长的海岸线的岛屿国家。 我喜欢独自探索这个地方。

最后，我认为这次旅行的亮点是我可以认识新朋友，练习英语会话。我想这将是一个很好的机会去欣 赏美丽的国家，同时挑战我独自在陌生国家旅行的能力。
