2015年4月30日雅思口语预测题雅思口语部分Part oneTopic 1.What are some differences between men and women concerning shopping? Sample: If you take a look around you, you will most likely see men rushing to a certain item, paying it and leave the store, while women study fabrics, colors, textures and price. This is a behavior that's has been happening for many generations now, and it's still the same today, in every mall around the world.In the past, women gathered provisions almost daily, and this activity was not only a social one, but most of the times it involved children. The reason for which women spend so much time choosing things is that they need to make sure they have made the best choice, in terms of quality and safety. They also seem to know when a certain type of item will go on sale, much better than men.Men are exactly the opposite: they already have a certain item in mind and all they want to do is get in, get it and get out. A possible explanation to this behavior could be that in ancient times, men had to get meat at home as soon as possible.BrainstormingMen always have some ideas in their minds --> target --> buy the thing they need and then leave ; women try anything they are interested in --> may buy things with very little use --> can stay in the department stores for long time, several hours maybeTopic 2.Do you like to watch dance performances?BrainstormingYes, of course.
