【雅思口语】最熟悉的陌生人……

2019-06-26

在我们的人生中，有那么一群我们非常熟悉的陌生人，迷一样地存在着。对，他们就是你的亲戚们。

本次口语题库中的一个新话题：visiting relatives

以往对于新话题的解读，陆哲老师往往都会给大家至少两方面的答案。一个阳光正面的参考，一个阴暗消极的例子。这次我要做自己。原因很简单，这个话题如果各位考生往正面积极的方向来回答，着实没有任何难度可言。所以，就让大家体会一下什么叫“负能量之王，毁三观能手”的陆哲老师。本答案可能会引起部分读者的不适，都给我忍着吧。

Do you often visit your relatives?

Absolutely no. We are living in different cities, and almost all of us are quite busy with our work or study. This is to say, we cannot visit each other frequently. Only when it comes to some traditional festivals, can we get together for the celebration.

What do you often do while visiting your relatives?

Frankly speaking I do not know. What I mean is that I am mostly reluctant to visit them since I have no idea about what we can do together. It is super awkward when we are together and try to find some common topics to talk about but cannot really find one. Therefore, the only thing I do while visiting them is sitting there with a big smile and thinking about when I can leave politely.

Why do people visit their relatives?

For my part, I can never understand why some people liking doing that. Maybe they are able to find something to talk about with their uncles and cousins, or they can treat them like their friends. Anyway, they are worriers for me simply because they can do something that I cannot.

When was the last time when you visited your relatives?

I have to admit that this question reminds me of a horrible memory I got during the last Spring Festival holiday. It was a big family party where older generations kept giving life advice to younger ones, like what kind of men or women they should marry, how many kids they should have, and when they must begin to think about buying a house.

Young generations certainly paid no attention to what those old guys said, just because they were busy with showing off the BMW they newly bought from Germany, the luxury handbag they purchased in EU, and the summer house they were going to buy in a tropical island.

当然，咱们言归正传。像前文所说的一样，如果这几个题目都正面积极地回答，其实就和一些兴趣爱好类的题目没有什么本质的不同，难度自然就非常有限。上述答案是不是我的真实所感其实并不重要。在这里只是给各位开个脑洞而已。其实在考场中，所谓积极的答案，消极的答案，肯定的答案，或是否定的答案，只要是符合逻辑的答案都可以。希望用这个例子以正视听。
