雅思口语练习：圣诞节的7个习俗

Christmas is one of the most beautiful holidays of all time. It is the day when God's son was born on earth. Hence, this day is sacred for all Christians around the world. The Christmas season gives rise to a number of Christmas traditions that come along. Here are a few of them that are celebrated with zest and enthusia* worldwide for centuries.

Preparation of the Christmas cake:

This was an English tradition which started centuries ago. On Christmas eve, plum porridge was served to the people. As years passed, various other things like dry fruits, honey and spices were used. Soon this porridge got replaced with the Christmas cake. Christmas cakes are made using eggs, butter, confections, fruits, etc. Today a Christmas cake is an integral part of a Christmas menu.

Sending gifts to loved ones:

This tradition comes from the story of the three wise men who got gifts for baby Jesus on Christmas. Every Christmas, gifts are exchanged among loved ones, especially children. The story of Santa Claus also comes from this tradition.

Decorating the Christmas tree:

This refers to the tradition of decorating a pine tree using lights, tinsels, garlands, ornaments, candy canes, etc. Today, a Christmas tree is an indispensable part of Christmas celebration.

Lighting up the Christmas candle:

This refers to the tradition of placing a lighted candle outside houses during the Christmas season. A candle signifies hope as it brings light even to the darkest room. In the earlier times, when Christians were persecuted, they were not allowed to practice prayers. Hence, a single candle used to be placed outside the house as a sign that Christian prayers were being conducted inside.

Singing Christmas carols:

It refers to the age-old custom of enchanting a number of traditional Christmas songs during the Christmas season. It adds to the joy and fun to the atmosphere. Different Christmas hymns or carols like The First Noel, Jingle Bells, Joy to the world, etc are sung every Christmas as a part of the Christmas celebration.

Making of Cribs:

This is yet another age-old tradition of Christmas. A crib refers to the Nativity Scene that is prepared using *all statues. The first crib ever was made outside a church of St. Francis of Assisi for children to show them how the Nativity scene was like. Since then, this tradition became very popular.

Distributing Christmas candies:

This is one of the most wonderful traditions of all. Christmas candies are distributed to neighbors during the Yuletide season. On the day of Christmas, all misunderstandings and grudges are forgotten and the community comes together to celebrate the birth of Christ.

These traditions have been carried out for decades, yet they are celebrated with more and more exuberance each year. The level of excitement has never gone down. It just keeps getting better and better with time.

关于口语机经的对话

xport：为什么其他三们都有机经,就口语没有呢?是和去年,前年一样,没有变化还是什么原因呢?我想总不会雅思取消口语考试了吧!!.版主,您是否能给个答案呢?总闷着也不是个事啊!

John：Part of the reason that you don't see 机经 for the spoken test is that there are no "correct" or "incorrect" answers for the spoken test. The interviewer gives you a score based on your ability to communicate, and not based on whether or not your answers conformed to a predetermined "answer sheet".

While the topics do are updated frequently, the types of questions never really change. It's much more important to work on improving your ability to communicate using spoken English than it is to try and guess exactly which questions the interviewer ask.

红星照我去战斗：But I don't think the speaking part of IELTS is perfect enough to test one's speaking level by some topics according to different background knowledge of different people.Set I myself for example, I don't like sports ,and I know nothing about sports stars.If it happened to me that my topic is that, I would fail in the exam. However, if we can collect the topics ,then we can collect words related to the topics to develop our speaking materials.

John：I disagree.

In fact, it's very unlikely that you'll be given a card in Stage Two of the interview asking you to describe a "sports star". It's much more likely that your card would ask you to describe a "famous person", in which case you could describe a sports star, an entertainer, a busines*an, a political figure, or any number of different types of people.

And if you are asked about the topic of "sports" in Stage One, it's fine for you to say "I don't like sports!" The interviewer will probably ask you "why?", but you don't need any specific knowledge of sports in order to explain why you don't like sports. :)

The most important part of the IELTS interview is *not* your knowledge of the specific topics; instead, the most important thing is your ability to express yourself in English about a variety of topics.

Let me know if this is unclear. I'm happy to continue this discussion.
