Part 1 高频问题及高分范例
Do you like holidays?
- 低分回答: "Yes, I like holidays. Because I can relax."
- 高分回答: "Absolutely, I'm a huge fan of holidays. I think they are essential for recharging my batteries. Life can be quite hectic with work and studies, so having a break allows me to unwind and come back feeling refreshed and ready to tackle new challenges."
How do you usually spend your holidays?
- 低分回答: "I usually travel with my family."
- 高分回答: "It really depends on the length of the holiday. For shorter breaks, like a long weekend, I might just have a staycation. I love exploring my own city, trying out new cafes, or visiting a museum I've always wanted to see. But for longer holidays, say a week or two, I'm all about getting away. I love embarking on a journey to a new place, immersing myself in a different culture, and making some unforgettable memories."
What was the best holiday you have ever had?
- 低分回答: "My best holiday was last summer. I went to Japan. It was very good."
- 高分回答: "That would have to be my trip to Japan last year. It was an absolutely incredible experience. The highlight was definitely when I visited the ancient temples in Kyoto. Wandering through the historic streets felt like stepping back in time. On top of that, the food was to die for – I tried so many delicious things I'd never even heard of before. It was a truly breathtaking and memorable getaway."
Do you prefer to travel alone or with others? Why?
- 低分回答: "I prefer to travel with friends. Because it's more fun."
- 高分回答: "I think both have their own merits, but I personally prefer traveling with friends. It's always more fun to share experiences with someone. You can split the costs, take photos of each other, and have someone to discuss your day with over dinner. However, I can see the appeal of solo travel too – it gives you complete freedom and a chance to truly connect with yourself. But for me, the joy of making memories together is what makes a trip special."
What do you do to relax during a holiday?
- 低分回答: "I watch TV and sleep."
- 高分回答: "I have a few go-to activities for relaxing. I'm a big fan of reading, so I usually pack a good novel and spend an afternoon in a cozy cafe or by the pool. I also enjoy simply disconnecting from the digital world – no emails, no social media. It's amazing how liberating that feels. Sometimes, I'll just put on some music and take a long walk, letting my mind wander without any pressure."
Is there a holiday you dislike? Why?
- 低分回答: "I dislike the Spring Festival holiday. Because it's too busy."
- 高分回答: "Well, I wouldn't say I 'dislike' it, but I find the Spring Festival holiday to be a bit overwhelming at times. It's wonderful to spend time with family, of course, but the amount of commuting and the sheer number of social gatherings can be quite exhausting. It's more of a hectic affair than a relaxing break for me, so I sometimes crave a quieter holiday afterward."
Part 2: Describe a holiday you would like to take in the future
(You should say: where you would like to go, who you would like to go with, what you would like to do there, and explain why this would be a good holiday for you.)
回答思路
- Where: 选择一个具体、有特色的地方,而不是笼统的“海边”或“国外”,冰岛、新西兰、摩洛哥、京都。
- Who: 明确你的旅伴(朋友、家人、伴侣或独自一人),并说明为什么选择他们。
- What to do: 列出2-3个核心活动,并详细描述,冰岛的极光、冰川徒步、蓝湖温泉。
- Why it's good: 将活动与你的个人感受和需求联系起来,喜欢自然风光、寻求冒险、想从工作中解脱、对摄影感兴趣等。
高分范例
"I'd love to talk about a trip I've been dreaming of taking for a while now, and that's a journey to Iceland.
First of all, where I'd like to go. Iceland has always fascinated me. It's often called the 'Land of Fire and Ice,' and I'm captivated by the idea of witnessing such dramatic and raw natural beauty – from towering glaciers and active volcanoes to powerful geysers and stunning waterfalls like Gullfoss.
As for who I'd go with, I think this would be the perfect trip to take with my closest friend. We share a passion for photography and adventure, and I can't think of a better person to share such an otherworldly experience with. We could spend hours just trying to capture the perfect shot of the Northern Lights or a majestic ice cave.
Now, what I would like to do there. My itinerary would be packed with incredible activities. The absolute top of my list would be to go chasing the Aurora Borealis, the Northern Lights. I've seen so many breathtaking photos and videos, and experiencing it in person would be a dream come true. I also really want to do some glacier hiking on one of the country's many ice caps, strapping on crampons and exploring a blue ice world. And of course, a soak in the Blue Lagoon would be the perfect way to relax those sore muscles after a day of adventure.
Finally, why this would be a good holiday for me. For me, this trip would be about so much more than just sightseeing. It would be a chance to disconnect completely from the hustle and bustle of daily life and reconnect with nature on a profound level. The sheer scale and power of the Icelandic landscape would put everything into perspective and be incredibly humbling. It would be an adventure that challenges me physically and rewards me with memories that would last a lifetime. I truly believe it would be a transformative and rejuvenating experience."
