范文:
I’m a big fan of photography so I clearly remembered how I waited for my first camera I bought in an online store.
I was in the habit of online shopping then so when I got the enough budget to purchase an expensive camera and lens in April last year before I planed to travel, I placed an order immediately in that website and waited for the delivery anxiously at home with myself.
The ship would not be shipped the same day because there were always a large amount of orders in the website, but it would be sent the next day. So I had to wait for a whole day. I constantly checked the shipping status in the website to see how the delivery processed, and I would always be very delighted to find a change in the procedure. You know, it always would be a long and painful time before you get something you dream of.

I couldn’t have a better understanding of what wait means if I didn’t experience waiting for the result for my first job interview. At that time, I just graduated from university and got an interview opportunity from a big famous company. I was overjoyed when hearing this. I remembered that there was only one week left for my job interview. I searched for floods of information about the history and major market of the company to fully prepare the interview. On the interview day, I began to know that there are four rounds of interviews before the final result came. First of all, I had to complete the written test. After that, I had to meet a department leader for face-to-face interview. In the third round, I had to complete a group task with other competitors. Finally, I had the opportunity to confront one of the chief executive with a final brainstorm activity. Fortunately, I won the opportunity for the fourth round. However, they told me to wait for the result in the end. I waited for the offer for two weeks. Yes, I was very confident that there could be an offer waiting for me. Nevertheless, they didn’t call me back. I can’t tolerate the fact that they didn’t give me a feedback, so I called them. They said sorry about the delaying offer but without any explanation. Coincidentally, I had to move to another city for some personal reasons. So I gave up that offer. That offer once was so special for me, but then it meant little in the end.
I felt unsatisfied without any reasonable explanation for the delaying notification of the offer. I spent so much time preparing and experiencing the interviews so I tolerated with the wait. I could understand that there’re perhaps some complicated processes to deal with before they issue an offer. However, I can’t feel any equal respect from them. At least they should do what they promised to me. Even if I didn’t move to the city I live now, I could still linger on accepting the offer. I suffered a lot from the more than two-week wait.

參考范文:
Ok right then, well after thinking for a little bit just now, what I’ve decided to talk about is the time I waited for a boat at the West Lake in Hangzhou. And as for when this happened, well I suppose it must have been about two or three months ago by now, and it was on a weekend, so we kind of knew that there would be a long queue for the boats!
So yeah, when we got there, we were told that there would be a wait of about an hour or so, at least, which was what we pretty much expected. But we didn’t feel like twiddling our thumbs and hanging around for an hour doing nothing, so instead, what we actually decided to do was to get a ticket number first and then go for a walk around the lake, have lunch and then come back again in the afternoo n. Do it that way!
And I’m glad to say that, when we went back later and showed the guy our ticket, he told us we could get on the next boat. So we felt pretty good about it, and it was quite a relief as well, cos I mean, he could have told us that we missed our turn and would have to get another ticket number, you know, like they do in the bank. But thankfully, he took pity on us, especially after I’d said that we had waited for about 4 hours! So yeah, it all worked out pretty well for us, cos we almost immediately got onto a boat. I’m not sure the other people waiting were very impressed, cos it kind of looked like we were queue barging, but anyway, that’s basically what happened!
So that’s about it, thanks for listening!

雅思口語(yǔ)備考練習(xí)中的技巧應(yīng)用
第一,如何用英文簡(jiǎn)單界定一個(gè)東西的技巧。美國(guó)人和美國(guó)人交談80%是想告訴對(duì)方這個(gè)事物是什么。我們的課本盡管詞匯難度不斷加深,但思維邏輯結(jié)構(gòu)卻只停留在一個(gè)水平上。中國(guó)人常說(shuō)Where is the book(這本書(shū)在哪兒)?很少有人說(shuō)What is a book(書(shū)是什么)?而美國(guó)的小學(xué)生就開(kāi)始問(wèn):What is the book?這種Where is the book只是思維的描述階段。但是我想連大學(xué)生也很難回答What is a book?因?yàn)橹袊?guó)傳統(tǒng)英語(yǔ)教學(xué)模式?jīng)]有教會(huì)學(xué)生表達(dá)思想的技巧。因此,雅思口語(yǔ)技巧的尋找與使用并不是那么容易,它的尋找需要學(xué)生思維的發(fā)散。
第二,如果已經(jīng)學(xué)會(huì)界定,但理解還有偏差,那就要訓(xùn)練How to explain things indifferentways(用不同的方式解釋同一事物)。一種表達(dá)式對(duì)方不懂,美國(guó)人會(huì)尋找另一種表達(dá)式最終讓對(duì)方明白。因?yàn)槭挛锞鸵粋€(gè),但表達(dá)它的語(yǔ)言符號(hào)可能會(huì)很多。這就要多做替換練習(xí)。傳統(tǒng)的教學(xué)方法也做替換練習(xí),但這種替換不是真替換,只是語(yǔ)言層面的替換,而不是思維層面的替換。比如,Iloveyou(我愛(ài)你)。
按我們教學(xué)的替換方法就把you換成her,mymother等,這種替換和小學(xué)生練描紅沒(méi)有什么區(qū)別。這種替換沒(méi)有對(duì)智力構(gòu)成挑戰(zhàn),沒(méi)有啟動(dòng)思維。這種替換句子的基本結(jié)構(gòu)沒(méi)變,我聽(tīng)不懂Iloveyou,肯定也聽(tīng)不懂I love her。如果替換為I want to kiss you,I want to hugyou,Iwill show my hearttoyou等,或者給對(duì)方講電影《泰坦尼克》,告訴對(duì)方那就是愛(ài),這樣一來(lái)對(duì)方可能就明白了。這才叫真正的替換。也就是說(shuō)用一種不同的方式表達(dá)同一個(gè)意思,或者一個(gè)表達(dá)式對(duì)方聽(tīng)不清楚,舉一個(gè)簡(jiǎn)單易懂的例子來(lái)表達(dá),直到對(duì)方明白。
第三,我們必須學(xué)會(huì)美國(guó)人怎樣描述東西。從描述上來(lái)講,由于中美的文化不同會(huì)產(chǎn)生很大的差異。我們描述東西無(wú)外乎把它放在時(shí)間和空間兩個(gè)坐標(biāo)上去描述。美國(guó)人對(duì)空間的描述總是由內(nèi)及外,由里及表。而中國(guó)人正好相反。從時(shí)間上來(lái)說(shuō),中國(guó)人是按自然的時(shí)間順序來(lái)描述。我們描述一個(gè)東西突然停住時(shí),往往最后說(shuō)的那個(gè)地方是最重要的。美國(guó)人在時(shí)間的描述上先把最重要的東西說(shuō)出來(lái),然后再說(shuō)陪襯的東西。只有發(fā)生悲劇性的事件,美國(guó)人才在前面加上鋪墊。這就是中國(guó)人和美國(guó)人在時(shí)間描述上的巨大差別。
第四,在雅思口語(yǔ)練習(xí)當(dāng)中,要學(xué)會(huì)使用重要的美國(guó)習(xí)語(yǔ)。不容易學(xué)、易造成理解困惑的東西就是“習(xí)語(yǔ)”。比如北京人說(shuō)蓋了帽兒了,外國(guó)人很難理解,這就是習(xí)語(yǔ)。所以和美國(guó)人交流時(shí),能適當(dāng)?shù)剡\(yùn)用美國(guó)習(xí)語(yǔ),他馬上就會(huì)覺(jué)得很親切,也很愛(ài)和你交流。那么什么是習(xí)語(yǔ)?就是每個(gè)單詞你都認(rèn)識(shí),但把它們組合在一起,你就不知道是什么意思了。
第五,學(xué)會(huì)兩種語(yǔ)言的傳譯能力。這是衡量口語(yǔ)水平的一個(gè)最重要標(biāo)準(zhǔn)。因?yàn)橛⒄Z(yǔ)不是我們的母語(yǔ),我們天生就有自己的母語(yǔ)。很多人都認(rèn)為學(xué)好外語(yǔ)必須丟掉自己的母語(yǔ),這是不對(duì)的。
第六,要有猜測(cè)能力。為什么美國(guó)人和美國(guó)人、中國(guó)人和中國(guó)人之間交流很少產(chǎn)生歧義?就是因?yàn)樗麄冎g能“猜測(cè)”。我們的教學(xué)不提倡“猜測(cè)”。但我覺(jué)得猜測(cè)對(duì)學(xué)好美國(guó)口語(yǔ)很重要。在交流中,有一個(gè)詞你沒(méi)有聽(tīng)懂,你不可能馬上去查字典,這時(shí)候就需要猜測(cè)來(lái)架起一座橋梁來(lái)彌補(bǔ)這個(gè)缺口,否則交流就會(huì)中斷。
中國(guó)人學(xué)習(xí)口語(yǔ)講究背誦,背句型、背語(yǔ)調(diào),結(jié)果就是很多人講口語(yǔ)的時(shí)候講著講著眼就開(kāi)始向上翻,實(shí)際上是在記憶中尋找曾經(jīng)背過(guò)的東西。如果他要是能猜測(cè)的話,我想也就不會(huì)出現(xiàn)這種現(xiàn)象。
