雅思口语衔接句子技巧大全 雅思口语如何把句子说得有长度且丰富

关于老年人的雅思口语话题

雅思口语平时要多练，什么话题都能说一点，临考才不会心里没底而慌乱，老年人话题虽然不难，但是有些题目比较生僻，我们得让知识无死角。例如美国老年人的话题，如果我们对美国老年人的生活槐销不是很了解到话，这个话题就会很难。

老人在中国和西方的生活：

It a common tradition in China that children live together with their
parents until they are married, and often children still live with the parents
after they are married.

在中国，孩子们结婚前一直与父母生活在一起是很普遍的，许多人婚后仍和父母共同生活。

In China the grandparents stay on with the family and look after the
grandchildren while the parents are at work.

中国的祖父母铅仿游一直和全家人住在一起，儿女们一起去上班时的时侯，他们照看孙子孙女们。

In North America, old people usually live alone. If they are too old to
take care of themselves, or if they’re really old, day over 75, then they
usually live in old-folk’s homes, nursing homes, or special apartment complexes
designed for senior people.

在北美，老人们一般是单独生活。如果他们年纪太大生活不能自理，或者已逾古稀之年大大，比如说过了75岁了，他们便住进老人院、疗养院或专为老年人设计建造的有综合设施的公寓。

I do think that living together with the parents when we marry would be
nice for the child’s stability and would also let the parents feel like an
important part of the family.

我的确认为何老人们共同生活可以使孩子有稳定感，同时也让老人们觉得自己仍是家庭的重要成员。

It looks like it depends on how rich a family is weather to live with the
parent when we marry or not.

婚后是否与父母一起生活似乎要看一个家庭的富有程度。

That’s the trouble in some cases. Living with people of different
generations isn’t always easy. It requires some sacrifices and tolerance of
other’s behavior.

在有些情况下，那也很麻烦。几代人一起生活并不总是很容易相处的，这需要做出几点牺牲，并能宽容别人的行为。

In China it’s often the mother-in-law and the daughter-in-law who don’t get
on well enough, until both sides agree to live apart. And it’s socially
acceptable if the younger couple help the old couple in ways that are necessary.
Well, for example, when the parents are strong enough to live on their own the
children are expected to help when needed. When the parents are too old to take
care of themselves, they should be moved back to the children’s home where they
are properly fed, clothed and sheltered.

在中国经常是婆媳关系不好，只要双方同意分家。社会也能接受这种做法，只要小夫妻能以必要的方式帮助两位老人。嗯，比如说，父母体力尚好能独立生活的时候，儿女们只在需要的时候帮忙。父母年事已高不能自理时，让他们搬回儿女家，衣、食、住都能得到周到的照顾。

A common stereotype of older Americans is that they are usually "put away"
in nursing homes and forgotten about. Actually, only about 5 percent live in
some type of institution. More than half of those 65 or older live with or near
at least one of their children. The vast majority of the elderly live alone and
take care of themselves. According to the U.S. Census Bureau, 75 percent own
their own homes. Over a million senior *s live in retirement communities.
These provide residents with meals, recreation, companionship, medical care and
a safe environment.

一般人对美国老人家的刻板印象是被「遣送到」养护院去，然后被人遗忘。然而事实上，只有百分之五的人住在此类机构中，超过半数的六十五或六十五岁以上老人，是与孩子同住或住在其中一个孩子的附近。绝大部份的老年人是自己住并自己照顾自己的，根据美国户口调查局的统计，他们百分之七十五拥有自己的房子，超过一百万名老年人住在退休者的社区中，这些社区为其居民提供饮食、娱乐、友谊、医疗照顾、以及安全的环境。

关于代沟：

One important cause of the generation gap in the China nowadays is the
opportunity that young people have to choose their own life-styles. In the past,
China is more traditional, and when children grow up, they are expected to live
in the same area as their parents, to marry people that their people know and
approve of, and often to continue the family occupation. But now, a increasing
number of young people often travel great distances for their education, move
out of the family home at an early age, marry—or live with—people whom their
parents have never met and choose occupations different from those of their
parents.

Also, the speed at which changes are taking place in China is another cause
of the gap between the generations. In the past, elderly people are valued for
their wisdom, but now the knowledge of a lifetime may become obsolete overnight.
The young and the old seem to live in two very different worlds, separated by
different skills and abilities.

关于一位老人的病逝，看看你得到什么启发：

At 82 he was ready to die, and I was ready to let him go so that his
suffering would end. We laughed and cried and held hands and told each other of
our love and agreed that it was time. I said,“Dad, after you have gone I want a
sign from you that you are fine,” He laughed at the absurdity of that; Dad
didn't believe in reincarnation. I wasn't positive I did either, but I had had
many experiences that convinced me I could get some signal“ from the other
side”.

My father and I were so deeply connected I felt his heart attack in my
chest at the moment he died. Later I mourned that the hospital, in their sterile
wisdom, had not let me hold his hand as he had slipped away.

父亲82岁那年，生命垂危，将撒手人寰，我已做好准备，这样他的痛苦能够终止。我们开心地笑,我们痛苦地哭，我们牵着彼此的手，我们告诉彼此是多么地相爱，我们坦然面对这分手的时候。我说，“爸爸，您去后我要您给我个信号，告诉我您一切都好。”爸爸对这荒唐的想法哈哈大笑;他不相信来世转生。不过，我也不能说我就相信，但我有很多经历让我确信我可以从“那个世界
”得到一些信号。

父亲和我是如此血肉相连，以致他死的那一刻，我胸中也感到他的心力衰竭。后来我很悲哀：医务人员为防传染 ，父亲悄然离世时,没让我握着他的 手 。

关于老龄化问题(Old-age Boom)

It’s time-honored virtue to respect the elderly. That’s why their own flesh
and blood are supposed to look after them.

Well-being / Farewell is something, because seniors will lead a much more
comfortable life.

关于美国老年人(可以与中国老人比较)

We all like to imagine that we're getting wiser and not just older. Most of
us enjoy observing the miracle of growth in others, as well. For instance,
seeing our children develop and learn new things makes us feel proud.

我们都喜欢想象着自己能够越来越有智能，而不只是变老，我们大部份人也同时较喜欢观察别人成长的奇迹。例如：看到我们的孩子长大并学习新的事物使我们感到骄傲。

Growing old is not exactly pleasant for people in youth-oriented American
culture. Most Americans like to look young, act young and feel young. As the old
saying goes, "You're as young as you feel." Older people joke about how many
years young they are, rather than how many years old. People in some countries
value the aged as a source of experience and wisdom. But Americans seem to favor
those that are young, or at least "young at heart."

在美国这个以年轻人为中心的社会中，老化对人们而言并不是一件愉快的事，大部份的美国人都希望自己看起来年轻、行动年轻、并且感觉年轻，如一句古老的名言说：「你感觉自己有多年轻，你就有多年轻。」老年人说自己的年龄时常开玩笑说自己是多少
years young，而不说多少 years old
。某些文化中的人视老年人为经验与智能的资源，可是美国人似乎比较喜欢年轻人，或者至少是「心里年轻」的人。

Many older Americans find the "golden years" to be anything but golden.
Economically, "senior citizens" often struggle just to get by.
Retirement-typically at age 65-brings a sharp decrease in personal income.
Social Security benefits usually cannot make up the difference. Older people may
suffer from poor nutrition, medical care and housing. Some even experience age
discrimination. In 1987, American sociologist Pat Moore dressed up like an older
person and wandered city streets. She was often treated rudely-even cheated and
robbed. However, dressed as a young person, she received much more respect. Of
course, not all elderly Americans have such negative experiences. But old age
does present unique challenges.

许多美国的老年人觉得他们的「黄金年代」一点都不黄金。在经济上来说，老年人常是挣扎着勉强度日。退休--通常在六十五岁的时候--使个人收入骤减，而社会保障制度的福利并不能补足差额，老年人常遭遇营养、医疗照顾、和居住环境的问题。有些人甚至曾经碰到年龄歧视的问题，在一九八七年有一位美国的社会学家派特·摩尔装扮成老人在街上游荡，结果人们多半对她很粗鲁，甚至骗她或抢她的东西，可是当她穿著年轻时，人们就对她尊重多了。当然也不是所有的美国老人家都有这样糟糕的经验，不过年纪大确实会遭遇一些特别的挑战。

Ironically, the elderly population in America is expanding-fast. Why?
People are living longer. Fewer babies are being born. And middle-aged "baby
boomers" are rapidly entering the ranks of the elderly. America may soon be a
place where wrinkles are "in." Marketing experts are already focusing on this
growing group of consumers. And even now the elderly have a great deal of
political power. The American Association of Retired Persons (AARP), with over
30 million members, has a strong voice in Washington.

而很不幸偏偏美国老年人口又正在扩增中--很快速地扩增，为什么呢?因为现在的人越来越长命，婴孩的出生却减少，而当初在婴儿潮时出生现在是中年人的很快地就要进入老年阶段了，美国恐怕马上会成为一个皱纹「很流行」的国度。行销专家们已经开始注意这群人口持续增加中的消费者，而这群老年人现今甚至在政治上也相当有力，因为美国退休人员协会拥有超过三千万的会员，对华盛顿具相当的影响力。

Despite the challenges they face, Americans in their "twilight years"
generally refuse to give up on life. They find a variety of ways to keep
themselves active. To help them stay in shape, they may join mall walkers clubs,
fitness programs and even the "Senior Olympics." They can enjoy hours of
entertainment at senior centers and * amusement parks. Many enroll in
continuing education programs to maintain their mental skills.

纵然他们遭遇挑战，处在迟暮之年的美国老年人通常还是不愿意放弃他们的生活，他们寻求各种不同的方法使自己更有活力，为了保持强健的身体状况，他们参加购物中心的竞走俱乐部、健身课程、甚至奥林匹克老人运动会。他们可以在老人中心和成人公园里逍遥好几个小时，许多人报名参加延伸制教育以维续他们的心智技能。

关于年轻人与老年人：

The young live in the present rather than in the past or future.

The young should feel grateful to the older generation, who has created a
good life for them.

The older generation fought in the two world wars. They faced real
problems, but the young have an easier life.

资深烤鸭们对于雅思口语的四大评分标准应该都不陌生，每次课上问起来大多数但凡接触过雅思口语的童鞋都能不假思索地爆出Fluency, Pronunciation等至少两个band score descriptors. 稍稍加以回忆也可以想出vocabulary (lexical resources) 和grammar另两个其余的评分标准。今天环球青藤口语名师丁诗悦老师在这里要讲的便是这四个评分标准中首当其冲的fluency，为雅思考生们带来雅思口语如何把句子说得有长度且丰富，希望能为雅思考生们带来帮助。很多同学会问Fluency这个评分标准为啥会位列四个中的位？这其实是有它的道理的，筒子们不妨想想，你们遇到一个说英语的非老外，他要英语说的怎么样你们才会觉得这个人英语好？是不是讲话丝毫不卡壳，并且能够长句短句各种跟老外海聊几小时不嫌累？这就是Fluency的魅力所在，当对方不细听的时候，一个可以流利地说英语的筒子在大多数情况下可以给人留下英语好的印象，这个道理对考官也同样适用。那么接下来我们来看看这一个评分标准的具体描述，然后探讨一下破解之道：Band 7: Speaks at length without noticeable effort or less of coherence. May demonstrate language-related hesitation at times, or some repetition and/or self-correction. Uses a range of connectives and discourse markers with some flexibility.Band 6: Is willing to speak at length, though may lose coherence at times due to occasional repetition, self-correction of hesitation. Uses a range of connectives and discourse markers but not always appropriately我们来看看雅思口语六分和七分评分标准句，共同的一个短语——Speak at length. 说的有长度。那么问题来了，对于很多一紧张容易卡壳爆简短的简单句的童鞋这个该怎么破？往下看，破题大招等着你！！怎么把简单且简短至的句子说长？步，先把你脑海中的简单句写下来：P1的答句：I like it because it makes me relaxed.P2的描述句：I want to describe my friend Sherry. She is my clas*ate and she is beautiful.接下来我们就来看看这两个答题句的症结，句是不是怎么看都有点像万能通的短答句呢？句子成分已锋谈不能再简单了，所以我们的第二步就是”添油加醋”将其修改成具体切题的有长度的句子：Step1 ：近义词替换，like可换成be fond of, be keen on, be fascinated by 等近义短语。It也换成具体类别的东西例如light music, indoor activity, going to museums等内容以免被误会套模板；Because若怕多次出现重复的话可换成for the reason that, the explanation might be that等；make me relaxed 更加可以换成release my stress, 或者stay in a good mood等less common phrases.Step 2：增加句子成分，答句1里面大家可看到只有简单的主谓宾和因果成分，那么状粗者语和其他形容词修饰语都是木有的，所以我们的第二步就是加！加！加！问一问自己：什么时候听轻音乐放松呢？有些童鞋会答作业繁重学业压力大的银凳碰时候。Bingo! 状语来了 when I feel overwhelmed by those stressful burden from study. 此外，being overwhelmed程度严重么？如果不严重我们可以加在前面加a little bit那么归结起来句就可改为：I am quite fascinated by light music, especially when I feel a little bit overwhelmed by those stressful burden from study, for the reason that listening to it can release my stress.同样的道理我们用在雅思口语part 2的描述句中，第二句可改为：I would like to describe my friend who is also my clas*ate, Sherry. I have to say she is really pretty and gorgeous, because on her face, you can find a pair of sparkling eyes and lovely dimples.结合上面两个修改前和修改后的句子，我们可以看到，参考上述步骤后，答案不仅有长度且准确切题，避免套模板嫌疑。从而实现fluency和speak at length上上的突破。至于其余几个评分标准如何破，且听下回分解！以上就是环球青藤口语名师丁诗悦老师为雅思考生们带来的雅思口语如何把句子说得有长度且丰富，希望能为雅思考生们带来帮助。如需了解更多雅思培训的相关信息，欢迎拨打环球青藤的免费咨询热线400-060-9663进行咨询，或者点击环球青藤网站页面的“在线咨询”与环球青藤名师直接对话。

1.Are there many people living near you?
Yes, and they will say hello when they bump into each other anyway. But it can be annoying because gossip gets out everywhere here and everyone will know about it so it kinda sucks sometimes.

2.Do you know (all) your neighbours?
My neighbors are weird and get into lots of complicated situations that usually involve some one get hurt. Their family is complicated as their dad died and their mom is scatterbrained and remarried a guy who has kids of his own so now they have 5 or 6 kids. One of them is in college and only one of the remaining people are normal. So we don't talk to them much. They also throw big parties that keep me up all night.

3.How often do you see (or talk to) your neighbours?
I live in north east Scotland and i have good neighbours. we all chat over the wall and sometimes stand there for ages talking. Some we nip in and out of for coffee now and then. We are never in each other's faces all the time but we look out for one anothers houses if we're on holiday or such like.
Of course the *aller the town the better. In my town you can't go down the street without meeing a few people you know.

4.Do you think it's important to know your neighbours?
Yes. I would prefer to stay at a place where even if people know each other but still respect each other's privacy and do not gossip or snitch about each other.

5.How well do you know your neighbours?
I don't like my neighbours at all, they are very noisy, nosy, & rude people, i can hear them screaming at their kids & calling them bad names (although we live in a good neighbourhood), they run very loud music as well. If i run into any of my neighbours in the elevator, i don't open any talk, just "Hi" & that's it. Only the people in the 2nd floor are nice respectful people. I wish i had more good neighbours to be friend with.

6.Do you think it's important for a person to have a good relationship with their neighbours?
My neighbours are all grown up and are very kind. The benefits of having a good relationship with my neighbors is that we can make a new friend, share stories about our lives to improve them, to learn from them, etc. Not everyone can enjoy their neighbors, some people have strange, loud, neighbors. I would rather have older people as my neighbours because I like the peacefulness in a neighbour hood. I don't like all the ruckus.

7.What do you think of your neighbours?
My neighbours are great, we all get on very well and often socialise together, if one of us has a barbecue we invite one another around but we don't live in each other's pockets. This is a fantastic place to live, I got lucky when I moved in here.

8.What kind of people are your neighbours?
Nosey, Annoying, Has to know everything, sits on the porch and watches us do yardwork, has to know everyone's business. Well, just that kind of neighbor.

9.Do you spend much time socializing with your neighbours in your neighbours' homes?
Almost never. We have terrific neighbors and we want to keep it that way. We chat in the yard and gather outside. We help one another with the shoveling in the winter. We loan out our garden tools to one another. We even bring each other cookies at the holidays. But we don't visit in one another's homes often.

10.How (well) do you get along with your neighbours?
My neighbor spies on me, I wonder why. When I step outside I always see my neighbor behind the curtain watching me. I went last week to ask why and he denied it. I just laughed and walked away. He is over 65. I think he's bored but still bad behavior.

11.What are the benefits of having good relationships with one's neighbours?
You have to co-exist with them so why not be friendly. They can be a natural support to you and yours when and if needed, and vise versa. You have a community that shares life with you.

12.What sorts of problems (conflicts) can people have with their neighbours?
There are many: rave music full-blast till 6am, gangs fighting in the streets, throwing glass bottles at neighbours, throwing furniture through the windows...

13.In what ways can neighbours help each other?
By keeping an eye on each others properties for signs of trouble (break-ins).
Taking in the mail for a neighbor when they're away on vacation.
Helping with odd jobs around the yard.
Sharing things with each other (tools,garden equipment,household stuff...etc.).
Starting up a neighborhood watch program.

14.Have you ever asked a neighbour for help?
Never. I am too shy to go and ask my neighbors, because I don't like when people say no to me in front of my face.

15.Would you prefer to have young people as your neighbours, or old people?

Older people normally don't give too much trouble for neighbors because they don't listen to loud music, they don't throw big parties, they use to bring us a piece of cake when they bake it (it's really nice!) and when neighbors are younger or just have kids you're vulnerable to all sort of unexpected things, such as their music, parties, fights, but to compensate that they bring a lot of joy to the block. In fact, I think the problem is not really if the neighbors are younger or older, but if they are respectful and have consideration for the others living around. I have three neighbors, three young men who start party on Thursday and it goes until Sunday. The problem is not their party, but their bad taste for music and the fact that they have only one CD that they play a thousand times in a row. Nobody deserves it!
