雅思口语话题之Travel and Traffic

面对雅思口语考试的时候，平时对于相关话题的词汇积累起到了举足轻重的作用，因而刘伟楠老师为大家总结了雅思口语考试常见话题之Travel and Traffic，希望可以帮助大家更好的备考。

首先大家要知道Travel有两个意思：1、旅游。2、出行。我们来看一下它的第二个意思。出行可以分为两种：around the city和outside the city。在市内的出行方式有：subway, bus, taxi, private car, bicycle, walking等等。大家也需要知道乘坐交通工具的表达方法。By…，比如说：I go to work by bus/subway/bicycle等等。除此之外，我们也可以用动词的方式来表达。如 I usually take the subway/ ride a bicycle to get to work。市外的交通工具有airplane, ship, train, long-distance bus等等。

接下来我们看几道复习资料：
What changes would improve the way you travel to work or college? And why?

问题的意思是：什么样的改变可以提高你的出行方式？乍一看大家似乎摸不到头脑，但我们可以把这道题看成：你对于目前的出行方式还有什么不满意的地方吗？比如说你的出行方式是开车你可以这样来回答。
A: I think the traffic condition should be improved. For example, the road should be widened so that there will be fewer traffic jams; people should avoid non-essential use of their cars, especially in rush hour.

How do traffic problems affect you?
此题也是比较难回答的一道题，因为它过于宽泛。因此大家可以通过“分层”的方式来解题。比如说：身体和心理；上班和休闲；晴天和雨天等等。我们看一下范例。
A: Traffic problems affect my schedule (physically). In order to adjust for traffic congestion in Shanghai, I have to get up much earlier than I otherwise should. They also affect me mentally. Stuck in a traffic jam, I often feel upset and irritated, and I am feeling bad the whole day!

Is the cost of transportation in your hometown expensive? How and why?
对问题的回答是不难的，但要想给出原因的话就比较需要功夫了。 大家可以通过对比的方式来进行解题。
A: In my hometown, the public transportation is not very expensive. It only costs one yuan for taking a bus and seven yuan for taxi. However, the cost doubles for taking such public transportation in Shanghai.

接下来大家回答一下几道题：
How do you usually travel to work or college? And why?
Have you always travelled to work or college in the same way? Why/why not?
What do you like about travelling to work or college this way?
What do you think of travel agencies?
How about your last travel?
What is the advantage or disadvantage of travelling by air compared with other transportation 。
