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.

写作与口语7分实用方法

首先,感谢上帝、朋友和无忧雅思网的鼓励. (God is Great.)

其次,说明本人的情况,以便你我对比: 英语专业二年级, 专业四级(跟大学英语六级差不多)模考在65分左右,一次48,一次74. 什么剑桥101都没做. 考前参加环球雅思高分班(推荐)15天,培训完毕正式复习7天 (本有11天,看电视看了两天,考前两天急性肠胃炎,考试前13分钟才到考场课室,头晕虚脱,考口语当天凌晨作呕且胃酸过多烧坏喉咙 :P). 搞得听力与阅读只有5.5,不过也满足了.还以为只有4分呢. 还想谈谈如何听力的,考这样没说服力,算了.

进入正题. 写作:.
Task 1: 第一,不要抠好词. 上升下降占百分比率等每条fixed phrases记住两个就行.记多也没坏,但你要用得上. 第二, 注意条理性. 这点最重要. 拿到题目后,先总后分, 想好如何归类(按性别分,按时间段分,按费用多少等)才下笔. 描述时句子结构和词语多变当然好,但在非常不肯定词语是否正确应用的情况下就别冒险, 句型只要懂一种复杂的就行,例如非限定性定语从句. 最后用一句简单的话联系实际总结即可. 平时练习所有类型的图表题, 每个类型至少做1篇以上,20分钟内完成.

Task 2: 准备可能考的所有topics. (20篇吧).想万无一失一定要这样.当中有技巧. 预测最可能考的一般有5篇,你要用套句(吴建业的还行,Chinglish的不用)写好开头结尾, 然后每篇准备2-3个(正反)例子,而且至少有一例是creative,与时俱进的(tips:利用news).,最后找an english postgraduate or an English native speaker改. 不必一字不漏地背下来, 自己写的一般能记住,关键记住被edited的地方..其余15篇则把outline写下来.

口语:
口头回答所有口语机经上的问题,我先前就是全写写下来了,结果也没记得住什么, 完全临场发挥, 其实把特别的idea跟outline写下来. 要录音,check一下哪里不够流利或逻辑混乱的. 注意声调, 用不同方式发音,看怎样发得最像native speakers. 我独创的方法是”声音从鼻子发出”,可考试当天因病用不上,what a shame.

不懂怎样回答的问题与别人交流一下,就好是老外(tips:ICQ). 每个口语考官的着重点都不同,有的强调grammar,有的是logic,有的是fluency etc. 所以都要注意. Anyway,不必抠好词, 被问到什么马上答什么,不要犹豫,反应要快. 真的要犹豫, 就说Well, I guess, Let’s see etc. 不会的就说不会,别不懂装懂, 不然会说到连中文也说不清的地方去.我这次被问到三峡工程,我了解不多就说了解不多,只知道它是世界上最大的水利工程, 不过肯定对防洪防旱有他的实际价值. 考官不会难为你的. 不要怕对方频频转换话题, 不要怕考试时间的长短. 我考了不到8分钟. 对了, 千万别迟到,提前1个半小时到场.
Hope it’s helpful. ‘Coz that’s my opinion, I could be wrong. hehe
