瞬间提升雅思口语答案level的明星访谈（2）

　　问答No.1：

　　Q: What’s the best thing about Nashville?

　　A: The community spirit, so, the people.

　　这里的community指的是the feeling of sharing things and belonging to a group in the place where you live，所以之后被问到家乡的话题，如果你想说“我们那里人特好”，就把Nicole的答案搬下来吧!

　　问答No. 2:

　　Q: What’s your favorite band of all time?

　　A: Well, it’s a tie. ACDC and INXS.

　　口语Part 1里问favorite的问题可不少哦!谁说favorite就非得只能是一个呢!如果A和B的地位不相上下打成平手，就优雅的说出“Well, it’s a tie.”吧!

　　问答No. 3:

　　Q: Can you do an impression of someone?

　　A: Sure!

　　An impression of somebody指的是an amusing copy of the way a person acts or speaks，在谈到人物类话题的时候，没准可以用到哦!例如聊有才华或者有趣的人，就可以胡编一下：He can do an impression of any cartoon character.

　　问答No. 4:

　　Q: What’s the best surprise you’ve ever planned for?

　　A: Well, the best surprise I ever did was I gave my husband a 1967 Mustang. I put a big red bow on it and put it in our barn. He flipped out.

　　Flip out用来表达很强烈的情绪，例如very angry或者very excited, 所以以后知道用什么短语来替换它们了吧!例如：

　　He completely flipped out when he saw the mess in the kitchen.

　　问答No. 5:

　　Q: What’s the best part about being on a tour bus?

　　A: Being on top of each other?

　　谁能想到on top of还可以表示“拥挤”呢…… 不过仔细想想，也非常形象了! 当人或物very close to each other都快叠起来了的时候，就叫on top of each other了!例如：

　　We were all living on top of each other in that tiny apartment.

　　另外在口语里，on top of还经常表示in addition to的意思，例如：

　　On top of everything else, my car’s been stolen.

　　He gets commission on top of his salary.

　　问答No. 6:

　　Q: What’s the best parting gift from an Australian to an American on a farm visit like this?

　　A: Well, it would be my homemade jam from our orchard, my lavender in a sachet, and my eggs.

　　Q: Oh my gosh, you are a peach. Thank you so much, Nicole.

　　Parting就是“临别的”，例如a parting kiss. “临别的话”就是parting words.

　　Sachet这个单词一定要注意发音哦- /s???e?/. T is silent不要发音。它表示“香囊”，用英语解释理解的更准确：A sachet is a small bag containing dried herbs or flowers that you put with your clothes to make them smell pleasant.

　　如果我们想描写一位很精致的人，就可以说：Her nightdresses are always neatly folded, with a lavender sachet between each.

　　这里的peach很显然不是吃的，而是指a particularly good or attractive person or thing.

　　OK, that’s it! 大家还想跟哪位celebrity学口语呢?下次见喽!
