加拿大语言考试雅思口语放松减压类万能理由
加拿大留学语言考试,我们知道雅思口语考试的Part1部分,基本是围绕着我们的衣食住行等个人信息来展开提问的,问来问去的核心不过就是我们在生活中做了什么事情,喜欢什么事情,为什么做这些事情,为什么喜欢这样些事情等。雅思考试
每一个人的生活,都可以粗略分为2个部分:1.学习/工作2.休闲娱乐(工作学习之外的活动)
那么,凡是我们讲到学习生活之外的活动我们都可以用放松减压这个理由来说明我们做这些活动的感受和做这些活动的原因了。
适用题目
我们先来看一些本次5-8月题季中的典型相关话题及问题:
Meeting places
1.Where is your favorite place to meet with your friends?
2.Do you think there are some places suitable for meeting others?
3.Are there any differences between your favorite meeting places in the present and in your childhood?
4.Why are some meeting places better than others?
(注:和朋友见面不就是玩乐为主吗?)
Boring things
1.What kinds of things would make you feel bored?
2.What would you do if you feel bored?
3.What was the most boring thing you did when you were young?
4.Do you think school is boring?
(注:无聊的时候当然不是做一些玩乐的事情来消磨时间吗?)
Computers
1.In what conditions would you use a computer?
2.When was the first time you used a computer?
3.What will your life be like without computers?
4.In what conditions would it be difficult for you to use a computer?
(注:我们用电脑很大一部分不是娱乐吗?)
Evening time
1.Do you like the morning or evening?
2.What do you usually do in the evening?
3.What did you do in the evening when you were little?Why?
4.Are there any differences between what you do in the evening now and what you did in the past?
(注:晚上下班放学之后,难道不会做一些娱乐活动吗?)
语料来了
确定这个思路之后,我们先来学习一波放松减压的表达,不要只会说relax and release pressure
1.关于工作学习的压力很大(这是需要放松减压的原因)
exhausted and stressed out
After a hard day’s study,I feel exhausted and stressed out…
emotionally/physically drained
I always feel drained from dealing with people and things at work.
at the end of sb’s tether到了某人能忍受的极限
When the long work day is over and you are at the end of your tether,watching a little bit of Liziqi really helps. 雅思口语
burnout
At the end of the day,when all my work is done,I really feel burnout.
a lot on sb’s plate(任务/事情特别多)
Lately,I feel like I have so much on my plate,a ton of schoolwork,extracurricular activities and college application.I’m literally swamped.
be tied up(特别忙)
I’m so tied up these days,I don’t even have time to walk my dog.
2.关于放松减压
sth.is a stress-reliever(让人放松的事情)
Yoga is such a stress-reliever after a hard day’s work,you should try it.
sth.renews sb’s energy/recharge sb’s batteries(恢复精力)
Lying by the pool in this 5-star hotel is the best thing you can do to renew your energy and recharge your batteries
blow off steam/let off steam/get rid of pent up energies
Some people may feel boxing is a bit violent,but I find it really helps me blow off steam/let off steam/get rid of my pent up energies.
(注意这个表达只能用在一些相对来说比较剧烈的,发泄性的活动上,例如体育类,如果是听歌看电影等舒缓的活动就不太合适用这个表达)

重要提示
以上的表达可以锦上添花,我们当可以用最简单的relax来表达放松,也非常好,但是一定要注意避免常见错误:
1.relax oneself这是一个及其错误的表达,一定不能说,切记!!!
可以说sth.is relaxing/sth.relaxes me/relax my arms(legs,neck,back…)
2.stressful和stressed分不清楚
我们可以说sth.is stressful是说某件事情让然压力很大;而stressed是说人自己的感到压力很大
preparing for IELTS is stressful/school is stressful/work is stressful
I feel so stressed from working/studying all the time.
3.stress和pressure可以加「s」吗?
要看情况:如果只是精神上的压力,表达这个感受,不可数,不加s;
I’m under so much pressure/stress.
如果表达偏向于压力的来源,带来压力的各种事情,则可以加s;
the stresses of modern life雅思备考
the pressures of the outside world
重要逻辑链
最后我们来学一个放松减压表述的逻辑链,同学们基本可以按照这个逻辑链去表述做任何活动,以及为什么做这个活动的理由:
students have a lot of school workfeel exhausted/stressed out/drainedit is nice for them to do(travel/do sports/play video games…)these activities can help them relax and release pressureget refreshedmore energetic when they go back to study
employees have heavy workload/work long hoursfeel exhausted/stressed out/drainedit is nice for them to do(travel/do sports/play video games…)these activities can help them relax and release pressurerecharge their batteriesmore energetic when they go back to work
