雅思口语第一部分准备(问题加答案)

HomeTown
Where are you from,which part of your country?
I am from a small town of Taian city of Shandong Province in China.It locates on the northeast of China and southwest of Shandong.
1.what do u like about your hometown? (What would you say is the best thing about your hometown? What's your favourite part of your hometown?Do u like your hometown? ) I love my hometown's beautiful natural scenery[si:neri] very much.My hometown is an inland agricultural region.It is famous for its peach.Most farmers in the town plant peaches ,although they also plant other fruits,but mostly peaches.In the spring,the peach trees are blooming.Without a real look you can't imagine how beautiful the peach blossom blooming all over the moutain is .It is gorgeous.And cos it's not an industrial town,the environment is good ,the air is clear,the sky is blue,and I also enjoy the peace and quiet there.
2.what do u dislike about your hometown.
I guess the answer would be the economy.
Cas my hometown is not near the centre of the city,its economy is bad.Some area are pretty run-down.Pepole in my hometown are not rich and the living condition is not very good.Even worsely its economy is shrinking instead of growing cas the peaches sell not very well in recent years.I think maybe the quality of the peaches drops is the reason,you know,its taste is not as good as before,so less and less people buy peaches.
3.Do u think your hometown is good for young people?
No.cas i think my hometown is kind of falling behind the times.it lacks of opporpunity and changes which is very important for the young people.Most old people in the town didn't get the high education.That's why most parents in my hometown try their best to support their children to the college.They think only knowlege can change your fate.
4.what's the nightlife like in your hometown?
Most pepole in my hometown don't go out at night.After dinner,Children may do homework in their room while the parents watching TV outside.This reminds me of my childhood.cas my parents are not stict with me,so I can watch TV while i am doing homework.That's a reward for my good scores in the exam.Parents in my hometown don't care how u study,they just want the result. You give them what they want ,you can get the freedom.Oh Sorry,i go too far.
5.what would u change about your city?
The economic system i think. People in my hometown they just plant the peaches and sell them to the dealers.The money farmers can get is very limited.If they can be the dealers themselves or the government of my hometown can open bussiness such as peach juice factories,dried peach factories,i think things may go very differently. And they must improve the quality of the peaches firstly of course.Because in my memory the peach of my hometown are very big and delicious and also have numrous varieties.I am very confused why the quality drops year by year.I just can't get it.
6.What types of public transport can be found in your hometown?
The bus and bike.If people in the town want to go to the market or the shop and students want to go to school ,they often go there by bike or motorcycle.But if they want to go to the city,bus is the first choice.Few people have private cars in my hometown.And if people has some hurry things to do ,and they don't have a motorcycle and no time to waiting bus ,they may take a taxi.(But the taxi is not a real taxi.I mean it's not like the taxi in big cities.It' kind of a mixture of motorcyle and car.It has three wheels and a carrige shed.In small cities and towns of China you can see this kind transportation everywhere.)But few pepole will do that cas most pepole are penny-pinching ,they think taking taxi is a luxury.
Where do you live at the moment?
I’m not living in my hometown right now.I am living in my university .It is in Dongying city of ShanDong Province.
How long have you been living there/here?
I am living there about 6 years.cas I study in my university for about
6 years.4 years for my undergraduate course,2 years for my master’s degree. I am back to my hometown only on vacation.
Do you like _____? (The place you are living in now) (Why?/Why not?) Actually I don’t like it.cas its climate is harsh.It seems like there are only 2 seasons in this city,winter and summer.You may wear a down coat yesterday and today you only need to wear a T shirt because of the hot weather.

•Has your hometown changed much in the past few years? (e.g. 20 years) yes.There are a lot of changes.First of all,more buildings and factories are
showing up , besides,the populations are getting bigger and bigger.The
traffic system is more convenient.But the environment is worse than it used to be.Rivers are polluted and trees are cut down,the air is not as fresh as before.
•Compared to the past, would you say your hometown today is more suitable for living in, or less suitable?
It depends. On the one hand ,the house people lives now is far more better than the past and the transportation is more convenient.it seems like today is more suitable compared to the past.On the other hand ,the worse environment plus for the past
Do you think you'll always live there?
No.I haven’t live there for a long time since I went to college.I will find a job in big cities in the future,so I guess I won’t go back unless I visit my parents.
What's the weather usually like in your hometown?
It has a great climate all year round.The spring is warm and the summer is rainy.I like autumn in my hometown cas it’s cool and refreshing.And the cold of winter there is within our limit.

I live in a flat.It is on the fourth floor of the building of six stories.It's
a little high for old people,my mother complains about that everytime she climbs the stairs.
why do you choose living there?
Cas it’s in a pretty convenient location.And there's a wonderful view outside the window.It also has a roomy kitchen.But I guess the most important reason may be It’s cheaper than the 1st floor of the building.
Which room do you like best? What's your favourite room in your home? (Or: What part of your home do you like best?) (Why?)
I love my room best.My sister and I have our own rooms separately.My room has a big window and the whole place feels light and airy.

Please describe it a little.
The rooms are pretty spacious.The big windows let plenty of natural light in and
there's a wonderful view outside the window.The whole place feels light and airy.It has a roomy kitchen and a bg balcony.
when do you get up?
I get up at 7 o’clock in the morning usually.Then I finish my breakfast at 7:40 and then I go to my labotary to study.That’s my schedule of a normal morning.
8.Is there anything hanging on the wall?
Ah,Yeah,there is sth. hanging on the wall.it's a big photo of my family.It is on the centre of the wall facing to the door,so you can see it when you come in.If I remember correctly,It was taken on my grandma's 88th birthday.Do u want me to describe the content of the photo for u?Let me recall who is on it.My grandma wearing a red color coat sit at the center with my parents on either side of her.(You know,red represents a happy occasion.)My sister and I sit around my parents.We all have a happy smile on our faces,that's a really special moment full of happiness and warmth.I really miss that day.

Actually we did’t decor ate the rooms at all when we moved in cas the flat itself cost all the money we saved in the past years.We moved in a hurry with our old furniture cas we sold out our old house when we bought this new flat.There’s only a family photo on the wall.

uptown.There are plenty of similar buildings around our flat.
•What is the environment like around your home? * N (Possible question. Unconfirmed) it’s pretty good.

facilities.
