Moreover, I can live a healthier lifestyle, most Thai cuisine（泰国菜系）are made with fresh vegetables and fruit, so you’ll never be lacking for vitamins（维他命）. More importantly, Thais（泰国人）are so laidback and friendly that they will go out of their way to talk to anyone who walks by and even treat you like part of the family. That’s may be the main reason it’s called the “Land of Smiles”（微笑的国土）. Actually, my first trip to Thailand made me immediately fall in love with this country. If I could work there, that would be the best decision I’ll ever made.【此课件下载可自行编辑修改，供参考，感谢你的支持！】。

托福口语话题素材整理：Place
托福口语在平时的复习中，大家需要积累一些必备的素材，这样才能够让我们的口语回答，内容更加丰富。
那么具体的哪些口语素材是同学们必须掌握的呢?
1. Places of Interest/Attractions= Description:
If I’d had a chance to visit a place I’ve never been to, I would like to go to Imperial Palace, which is also called Forbidden City in Beijing, the capital of China.
In the heart of Beijing, it is the largest and most complete imperial palace and ancient building complex in China, and the world at large. Its construction began in 1406 and was completed 14 years later, having a history so far of some 580 years. Twenty-four emperors from the Ming and Qing (1644-1911) dynasties lived and ruled China from there. Most of the buildings in the Forbidden City were rebuilt many times, although they maintained the original architectural style.
The reasons why I love there so much are based on the following aspects.
First of all, the ancient buildings record the history path to tell us the legends of our ancestors, especially good for our young people to get familiar with our past. Furthermore, they are the symbols of Chinese traditional and rich culture.
Last, they are standing there to make us understand our past; When we are facing the past, what we must do is to absorb the essence and discard the dregs.
2. Restaurants and Café:
If I had to say what features of restaurant and café I cared most, I would consider them from the following three angles.
First of all, the food there must be very delicious and nutritious. I like something pretty from appearance and tasty from inside. It is better to taste it like my mom’s cuisine because it makes me feel I am the happiest in the world. Like hotpot. I feel good when I 6 am having it.
Second, the service there must be very considerate, which means, the waiters and waitresses there must be very nice and patient.
Last, the atmosphere there must be very comfortable. Like the sofa there makes me feel at home and I can sit there for a whole day without tiredness. There better has some light music and quiet surroundings because I usually want to have a nice conversation with my friends.
Those aspects I’ve mentioned above are the standards I care when I choose to go to a restaurant.
3. Favorite Room=description:
My favorite room is my living room. It’s rectangular with the door on the left side of the south wall. In the wall opposite the door is a picture window. Below the window is a sofa. A rectangular coffee table is in front of sofa. Facing the sofa are two armchairs. An abstract painting is on the west wall. This bright and uncluttered room is my best place to hide from outside world to make me relax, think freely, and live comfortably.。
