  和谐英语网为同学们整理了2021年1-4月雅思口语part2新题:最近听到的一则国际新闻,供考生参考学习

  Describe a piece of international news you have just recently heard.

  You should say:

  What the news was about

  When and where you heard it

  What you were doing when you heard the news

  And explain how you felt about this piece of news

  Generally, I find the news quite depressing, so I avoid following most national and international and political news, or at least I don’t pay much attention to it. However, I really enjoy following scientific news and news related to space and space technology. Recently I read an article online in a magazine which was about space and the discovery of a ‘new’ planet in our solar system. A dark planet that doesn’t show up on more space telescopes. I found this article really interesting and afterwards I found a documentary about it online and watched that, too. When I first read about this discovery I think I was just lying in bed reading or sitting on the subway, I can’t really remember exactly what I was doing at the time. But this is when I usually read such things – on the way to work, while commuting, or at the end of the day before I go to sleep. I usually actively search for news about space and science, and sometimes geography and the environment, so I frequently come across interesting scientific articles about these kinds of things. Then, if one catches my interest, I dig deeper and try to find out more about it, like a documentary online or more articles in specialist magazines. Because I majored in science, I am into these kinds of things, and like to follow them up and keep up to date with the latest discoveries. I am also really interested in science fiction, as well, so I guess my hobbies and interests tend to be related to the general field of science and exploration. Because there is a renewed interest in space at the moment, I think the next twenty years will be really fascinating in terms of discoveries in space – the Chinese have just sent another rover to the moon, Elon Musk is launching multiple rockets into space, and there are plans to even send people to Mars. So, I think that this is an area which will be very exciting in the not so distant future.

  题目解析:

  本题属于新题首次出现。虽然之前有考过“让你印象深刻的新闻”,但是这样特指“国际新闻”的考题还从未出现过。不过最近的国际社会可谓是“风云变幻”,想要找出一篇让你印象相对深刻的国际新闻应该不难。但是要提醒大家的是,不要涉及政治敏感内容,最好还是谈论科技类,娱乐类或者和社会生活相关的新闻内容。

  telescope:望远镜

  catch my interest:吸引兴趣

  specialist magazine:专业杂志

  keep up to date with:密切关注
