Part 1: 基础问答

这部分是热身，问题比较简单,主要考察你的日常交流能力和词汇广度。

Q1: Do you like outdoor activities? (你喜欢户外活动吗？)

• 高分思路： 不要只回答 "Yes, I do." 或 "No, I don't."，给出一个明确的观点，并简单解释原因,可以提一两个具体的例子。

• 回答范例 1 (喜欢):

  Absolutely! I'm a big fan of outdoor activities. I find them incredibly refreshing and a great way to escape the hustle and bustle of city life. For instance, I really enjoy going for a hike in the mountains on weekends. The fresh air and beautiful scenery just help me unwind and recharge my batteries. (我非常喜欢户外活动，我觉得它们能让人神清气爽，是逃离城市喧嚣的好方法，我真的很喜欢周末去远足，新鲜的空气和美丽的景色能帮我放松身心，为电池充电。)

• 回答范例 2 (一般/不喜欢):

  To be honest, I'm not really an outdoorsy person. I'm more of a homebody. I prefer relaxing at home, maybe reading a book or watching a movie. While I appreciate nature, I'm not very keen on activities like camping or hiking because I find them a bit tiring and I'm not very good with insects. (说实话，我不是一个特别喜欢户外的人，我更像一个宅男/宅女，我更喜欢在家放松，可能看看书或者看看电影，虽然我欣赏大自然，但我不太喜欢露营或徒步这类活动，因为我觉得有点累，而且我不太擅长应对昆虫。)

Q2: What outdoor activities do you like to do? (or What did you do outdoors when you were a child?) (你喜欢做什么户外活动？/ 你小时候在户外做什么？)

• 高分思路： 列举2-3个活动，并用一两句话描述一下你为什么喜欢它，或者它给你什么感觉,展示你不同的词汇。
• 回答范例：

  Well, there are a few things I like to do. Firstly, I'm really into cycling. It's a fantastic way to explore the city and get some exercise at the same time. Secondly, I love having picnics in the park with my friends during the summer. It's a lovely social activity. And lastly, I occasionally go rock climbing, which is challenging but gives me a huge sense of accomplishment when I reach the top. (嗯，我喜欢做几件事，我真的很喜欢骑自行车，这是探索城市和同时锻炼身体的绝佳方式，夏天我喜欢和朋友在公园里野餐，这是一个很棒的社交活动，我偶尔会去攀岩，这很有挑战性，但当我到达顶峰时，会给我带来巨大的成就感。)

Q3: How often do you do these activities? (你多久做一次这些活动？)

• 高分思路： 使用频率副词，并给出一个大致的时间安排,让回答更具体。
• 回答范例：

  I try to be as active as possible. I'd say I go cycling at least once a week, usually on a Sunday morning. As for picnics, that's more of a seasonal thing, maybe once or twice a month when the weather is nice. Rock climbing is less frequent, perhaps just a couple of times a month, because it requires more planning and time. (我尽可能地保持活跃，我每周至少骑一次自行车，通常在周日上午，至于野餐，那更像是季节性的活动，天气好的时候可能一两次一个月，攀岩的频率要低一些，可能一个月也就一两次，因为它需要更多的计划和安排。)

Q4: Why do some people prefer doing outdoor activities? (为什么有些人更喜欢做户外活动？)

• 高分思路： 从多个角度分析，如健康、心理、社交等,展示你的逻辑思维能力。
• 回答范例：

  I think there are several reasons for that. Primarily, outdoor activities are great for physical and mental well-being. They help people stay fit and reduce stress from work or studies. Secondly, many people find nature therapeutic; being surrounded by greenery and fresh air can be very calming. Lastly, it's a wonderful way to socialize. Activities like team sports or group hikes allow people to bond and strengthen relationships in a more relaxed setting than, say, a formal office meeting. (我认为有几个原因，户外活动对身心健康有好处，它们能帮助人们保持健康，并减轻工作或学习带来的压力，很多人觉得大自然有疗愈作用；被绿植和新鲜空气包围会让人非常平静，这是社交的绝佳方式，像团队运动或集体徒步这样的活动，让人们能以一种比正式会议更轻松的方式建立联系、加深感情。)

Part 2: 个人陈述

Describe an outdoor activity that you like doing. You should say:

• what the activity is
• where you usually do it
• who you do it with
• and explain why you enjoy it.

(准备1分钟，说1-2分钟)

高分思路： 这是一个经典的高分话题卡，你需要构建一个有细节、有情感、有逻辑的小故事。

1. 是什么: 清晰说出活动，这里我们以 "hiking" (远足) 为例。
2. 在哪里: 描述一个具体的地方，增加画面感，不要只说 "mountain"，可以说 "a national park with a well-marked trail called..."。
3. 和谁: 可以是家人、朋友，或者自己，和不同的人去,体验是不同的。
4. 为什么喜欢: 这是最重要的部分，不要只说 "because it's fun"，要从不同层面展开：
   • 身体层面: 锻炼身体,呼吸新鲜空气。
   • 精神层面: 逃离城市压力，与自然连接，思考人生,获得成就感。
   • 感官体验: 描述看到的景色（如：lush green forests, breathtaking views），听到的声音（如：birds singing, leaves rustling），闻到的气味（如：the scent of pine trees）。
   • 社交层面: 和朋友/家人的高质量时光。

回答范例：

I'd like to talk about my favorite outdoor activity, which is hiking. It's something I've grown to love more and more over the past few years.

The place I usually go for hiking is a national park on the outskirts of my city. It’s called Green Ridge National Park. There are several trails of varying difficulty, but my favorite one is a medium-difficulty path that takes about three to four hours to complete. It winds through lush forests, past a small, crystal-clear stream, and eventually leads to a summit with a panoramic view of the entire city. It's absolutely stunning, especially during sunrise or sunset.

I typically go hiking with my closest friend, Li Hua. We make it a weekend ritual. It's a great way for us to catch up on each other's lives without the distractions of our phones or the daily grind. Sometimes, if I need some time for myself to think, I'll go solo, but I generally prefer the company of a good friend.

As for why I enjoy it so much, it's a combination of things. Firstly, it's a fantastic workout. The physical challenge of climbing uphill gets my heart pumping and I always feel incredibly energized afterwards. But more importantly, it's incredibly therapeutic for the mind. Being surrounded by nature, with only the sound of birds and the wind, helps me clear my head and de-stress from a busy week at work. There's a profound sense of peace and tranquility that you just can't find in an urban environment. Lastly, reaching the summit and looking out at the breathtaking view gives me an immense sense of accomplishment. It’s a powerful reminder that the effort is always worth it. So, for me, hiking is not just a walk in the park; it's a journey that recharges my body and soul.

Part 3: 深入讨论

这部分考官会就 Part 2 的话题进行更抽象、更深入的提问。

Q1: Why do you think some people are not interested in outdoor activities? (为什么有些人对户外活动不感兴趣？)

• 高分思路： 分析原因,并可以提出解决方案。
• 回答范例：

  I believe there are a few key reasons. Firstly, lifestyle and convenience play a huge role. Many people living in big cities have very demanding jobs and long commutes, leaving them with little energy or time for outdoor pursuits. They might simply prefer to relax at home. Secondly, lack of interest or skills can be a barrier. Some people might find outdoor activities boring or intimidating, especially if they weren't exposed to them as children. For example, someone who doesn't know how to swim might be hesitant to try water sports. Lastly, accessibility is an issue. Not everyone lives near a
