1月5日雅思口语真题回忆：

Film stars

相关词汇：

Spring festival 春节

Lunar New Year's Eve 除夕

the Lantern Festival 元宵节

Spring Festival Gala 春节联欢晚会

spring festival couplets 春联

1. What is your favorite festival?

Just like most Chinese people, my favourite festival is Spring Festival, which

is also known as Chinese New Year. It's the main one in my country and most people have quite a nostalgic connection to it, so yeah without doubt, Spring Festival is my favourite.

分析：此题难度水平较低，主要是要掌握中国各类节日的英语表达。The Dragon Boat Festival 端午节;Double Ninth Festival 重阳节;Mid-Autumn Festival 中秋节;National Day 国庆节。

加分词汇：nostalgic 怀旧的; 乡愁的;

地道表达：without doubt; be known as…..

2. How do you celebrate this festival?

Well typically in my country this festival is all about spending time with family so we all congregate at a relative's home and spend one or two days there eating home-cooked food and just chatting up with each other. The main focus of the festival is being with family so that’s precisely what we do – spend time with our relatives.

分析：此题从内容上来讲不难回答，难就难在一些表达方面，比如“春节团聚”、“拜年”等等。

加分词汇：typically; congregate 聚集; precisely

地道表达：home-cooked food; chat up 聊天。

3. Do you celebrate festivals from other countries?

There are certain festivals such as Christmas and Halloween, and we sometimes have parties with friends to mark these festivals but we don’t really celebrate them in the same way that we celebrate festivals from our own country, we don't take them very seriously they are just an excuse to have a party.

分析：此题难度不大，估计很多同学能第一时间想到的是圣诞节。难点在于如何表达除了圣诞节之外的国外节日，比如万圣节Halloween，复活节Easter等。

地道表达：certain festivals; mark these festivals 度过此节日，庆祝此节日。

加分语法：in the same way that…that 引导的方式状语。

4. Where do people usually go during festivals?

As I mentioned before, for almost every Chinese festival we traditionally spend time at home with family. But in recent years this habit is shifting slightly –

young people are increasingly choosing to spend festivals abroad, travelling on holiday. I think this is because they see festivals as time-off work so it’s a perfect opportunity to go travelling. So a lot of younger adults go travelling but older people will still opt for spending time with family.

分析：此题还有一种问法就是大家节日会干什么，其实回答的内容差不多。此处前考官给的答案稍微提及了一下年轻人和年纪大一些的人的不同选择。大家在回答类似问题时可以参考，这样回答内容得以拓展延伸。

加分词汇：traditionally; shifting slightly 有所改变;increasingly。

地道表达：As I mentioned before(这个是很好的discourse marker话语标记语, 雅思口语评分标准里有此要求，大家要学会使用);time-off work休假时间;opt for选择。

考试原文：

Corporate Social Responsibility

The moral appeal---arguing that companies have a duty to be good citizens and to “do the right thing”---is prominent in the goal of Business for Social Responsibility, the leading nonprofit CSR business association in the United States.

A An excellent definition was developed in the 1980s ‘‘Meeting the needs of the present without compromising the ability of future generations to meet

their own needs.” The notion of license to operate derives from the fact that every company needs tacit or explicit permission from governments, communities, and numerous other stakeholders to do business. Finally,

reputation is used by many companies to justify CSR initiatives on the grounds that

they will improve a company’s image, strengthen its brand， enliven morale, and even raise the Value of its stock.

B To advance CSR, we must root it in a broad understanding of the interrelationship between a corporation and society. To say broadly that business and society need each other might seem like a cliché, but it is also the basic truth that will pull companies out of the muddle that their current corporate-responsibility thinking has created. Successful corporations need a healthy society. Education, health care, and equal opportunity are essential to a productive workforce. Safe products and working conditions not only attract customers but lower the internal costs of accidents. Efficient utilization of land, water, energy, and other natural resources makes business more productive. Good government, the rule of Jaw, and property rights are essential for efficiency and innovation. Any business that pursues its ends at the expense of the society in which it operates will find its success to be illusory and ultimately temporary. At the same time, a health society needs successful companies. No social program can rival the business sector when it comes to creating the jobs, wealth, and innovation that improve standards of living and social conditions over time.

C A company’s impact on society also changes over time, as social standards evolve and science progresses. Asbestos, now understood as a serious health risk, was thought to be safe in the early 1900s, given the scientific knowledge then available. Evidence of its risks gradually mounted for more than 50 years before any company was held liable for the harms it can cause. Many firms that failed to anticipate the consequences of this evolving body of research have been bankrupt by the results. No longer can companies be content to monitor only the obvious social impacts of today. Without a careful process for identifying evolving social effects of tomorrow, firms may risk their very survival.

D No business can solve all of society’s problems or bear the cost of doing so. Instead, each company must select issues that intersect with its particular business. Corporations are not responsible for all the world's problems, nor do they have the resources to solve them all. Each company can identify the particular set of societal problems that it is best equipped to help resolve and from which it can gain the greatest competitive benefit.

Addressing social issues by creating shared value will lead to self-sustaining solutions that do not depend on private or government subsidies. When a well-run business applies its vast resources, expertise, and management talent to problems that it understands and in which it has a stake, it can have a greater impact on social good than any other institution or philanthropic organization.

E The best corporate citizenship initiatives involve far more than writing a check: they specify clear, measurable goals and track results over time. A good example is GE’s program to adopt underperforming public high schools near several of its major U.S. Facilities. The company contributes between

$250, 000 and $1 million over a five-year period to each school and makes in- kind donations as well GE managers and employees take an active role by working with school administrators to assess needs and mentor or tutor students. The graduation

rate of these schools almost doubled during this time period. Effective corporate citizenship initiatives such as this one create

goodwill and improve relations with local governments and other important constituencies. What’s more, GE’s employees feel great pride in their participation. Their effect is inherently limited though. No matter how beneficial the program is, it remains incidental to the company's business, and the direct effect on GE’s recruiting and retention is modest.

F Microsoft is a good example of a shared-value opportunity arising from investments in context. The shortage of information technology workers is a significant constraint on Microsoft’s growth, currently, there are more than 450,000 unfilled IT positions in the United States alone. Community colleges, representing 45% of all U.S . Undergraduates, could be a major solution.

Microsoft recognizes, however, that community colleges face special challenges: IT curricula are not standardized, technology used in classrooms is often outdated, and there are no systematic professional development programs to keep faculty up to date. In addition to contributing money and products, Microsoft sent employee volunteers to colleges to assess needs, contribute to curriculum development, and create faculty development institutes. Note that in this case, volunteers and assigned staff were able to use their core professional skills to address a social need, a far cry from typical volunteer programs. Microsoft has achieved results that have benefited many communities while having a direct-and potentially significant-impact on the company.

G At the heart of any strategy is a unique value proposition: a set of needs a company can meet for its chosen customers that others cannot. The most strategic CSR occurs when a company adds a social dimension to its value proposition, making social impact integral to the overall strategy Consider Whole Foods Market, whose value proposition is to sell organic, natural, and healthy food products to customers who are passionate about food and the environment. Whole Foods’ commitment to natural and environmentally friendly operating practices extends well beyond sourcing.

Stores are constructed using a minimum of virgin raw materials. Recently, the company purchased renewable wind energy credits equal to 100% of its

electricity use in all of its stores and facilities, the only Fortune 500 Company to offset its electricity consumption entirely. Spoiled produce and biodegradable waste are trucked to regional centers for composting. Whole Foods’ vehicles are being converted to run on biofuels. Even the cleaning products used in its stores are environmentally friendly. And through its

philanthropy, the company has created the Animal Compassion Foundation to develop more natural and humane ways of raising farm animals. In short, nearly every aspect of the company’s value chain reinforces the social dimensions of its value proposition, distinguishing Whole Foods from its competitors.

1月12日雅思口语真题回忆：

题目来源：Part 1

题目：

1. How often do you look at the sky?

2. Do you prefer the sky in the morning or the sky at night?

3. Can you see the moon and stars where you live?

4. Is there a good place to look at the sky where you live?

思路分析：

Sky这个话题是在前几年的考试当中出现过，此次在2019年最新的part1话题中再次出现了。同学们在回答此类型话题的时候面临的的问题是没有拓展的思路，因为同学现实生活中其实很少有watch the sky的机会或者习惯。对于缺乏思路的同学来说，我们不妨回顾下往年这个话题的其他问题。除了此次试题当中出现的几个题目以外，同类型的Part 1话题还有:

· What do you think about when you look at the sky?

· Are there often clouds in the sky in your country?

· Is the sky often overcast?

· Is star-gazing popular in your country?

通过观察上面的题目我们不难发现，其实sky类型的话题和Weather(天气)/star-gazing(观星)这两个方面都有一定的联系，所以在我们回答为什么要仰望天空或者喜欢白天还是晚上的天空的时候，我们不妨往这两个方面去拓展下我们的思路，为我们的回答提供逻辑基础。同时，watch the sky 也不失为一种很好的缓解压力和疲劳的手段，也可以为我们拓展话题提供不错的逻辑基础。

比如说，当被问到 how often do you watch the sky的时候，我们可以说有时候喜欢看天空，因为看天空能够为我们缓解工作或者学习带来的压力。最后需要补充一个背景知识：light pollution(光害)，或称光污染(light pollution)，是人类过度使用照明系统而产生的问题。最显而易见的影响是城市夜空里的星星被众多大厦的灯光所覆盖而消失了。

这使得观察宇宙的研究受到影响，而且亦破坏了生态平衡。

参考答案：

1. How often do you look at the sky?

well, I look at the sky almost everyday. I like doing that because I enjoying watching the clouds. Watching the clouds is a great way to release pressure and relax my eyes. So…Yeah, I like looking at the sky.

2. Do you prefer the sky in the morning or the sky at night?

Actually, Both. I like watching sun rise in the morning, which is super exciting, and gazing the stars at night, which is fascinating. so I don’t really have a preference.

3. Can you see the moon and stars where you live?

Yeah, definitely. My city is kind of small, so we don’t have a lot of light pollutions, and that’s why we usually can see the moon and stars in my city.

4. Is there a good place to look at the sky where you live?

yes, of course. My city has many spots where you can get a good look at the starry sky. For example, the Dian lake, the West Mountain and World Expo. Park. So…Yeah…

词汇和短语：

Gaze 凝视

Release 释放

Pressure 压力

Actually 事实上来说

Starry 充满星光的

Get a good look at something好好看看某物

the Dian lake 滇池

the West Mountain 西山

World Expo. Park. 世博园

考试原文：

Mammoth Kill

Mammoth is any species of the extinct genus Mammuthus, proboscideans commonly equipped with long, curved tusks and, in northern species, a covering of long hair. They lived from the Pliocene epoch from around 5 million years ago, into the Holocene at about 4,500 years ago, and were members of the family Elephantidae, which contains, along with mammoths, the two genera of modern elephants and their ancestors.

A Like their modern relatives, mammoths were quite large. The largest known species reached heights in the region of 4m at the shoulder and weights up to 8 tonnes, while exceptionally large males may have exceeded 12 tonnes. However, most species of mammoth were only about as large as a modern Asian elephant. Both sexes boretusks.

A first, small set appeared at about the age of six months and these were replaced at about 18 months by the permanent set. Growth of the permanent set was at a rate of about 1 to 6

inches per year. Based on studies of their close relatives, the modern elephants, mammoths probably had a gestation period of 22 months, resulting in a single calf being born. Their social structure was probably the same as that of African and Asian elephants, with females living in herds headed by a matriarch, whilst bulls lived solitary lives or formed loose groups after sexual maturity.

B MEXICO CITY-Although it's hard to imagine in this age of urban sprawl and automobiles. North America once belonged to mam moths, camels, ground sloths as large as cows, bear-size beavers and other formidable beasts. Some 11,000 years ago, however, these large bodied mammals and others-about 70 species in all-disappeared. Their demise coincided roughly with the arrival of humans in the New World and dramatic climatic change- factors that have inspired several theories about the die-off. Yet despite decades of scientific investigation, the exact cause remains a mystery. Now new findings offer support to one of these controversial hypotheses: that human hunting drove this megafaunal menagerie to extinction. The overkill model emerged in the 1960s, when it was put forth by Paul S. Martin of the University of Arizona. Since then, critics have charged that no evidence exists to support the idea that the first Americans hunted to the extent necessary to cause these extinctions. But at the annual meeting of the Society of Vertebrate Paleontology in Mexico City last October, paleoecologist John Alroy of the University of California at Santa Barbara argued that, in fact, hunting-driven

extinction is not only plausible, it was unavoidable. He has determined, using a computer simulation, that even a very modest amount of hunting would have wiped these animals out.

C Assuming an initial human population of 100 people that grew no more than 2 percent annually, Alroy determined that if each band of, say, 50 people killed 15 to 20 large mammals a year, humans could have eliminated the animal populations within I, 000 years. Large mammals in particular would have been vulnerable to the pressure because they have longer gestation periods than smaller mammals and their young require extended care.

D Not everyone agrees with Alroy's assessment. For one, the results depend in part on population-size estimates for the extinct animals-figures that are not necessarily reliable. But a more specific criticism comes from mammalogist Ross D.E.MacPhee of the American Museum of Natural History in New York City, who points out that the relevant archaeological record contains barely a dozen examples of stone points embedded in mammoth bones (and none, it should be noted, are known from other megafaunal remains)-hardly what one might expect if hunting drove these animals to extinction. Furthermore, some of these species had huge ranges-the giant Jefferson's ground sloth, for example, lived as far north as the Yukon and as far south as Mexico-which would have made slaughtering them in numbers sufficient to cause their extinction rather implausible, he says.

E MacPhee agrees that humans most likely brought about these extinctions (as well as others around the world that coincided with human arrival), but not directly. Rather he suggests that people may have introduced hyperlethal disease, perhaps through their dogs or hitchhiking vermin, which then spread wildly among the immunologically naive species of the New World. As in the overkill model, populations of large mammals would have a harder time recovering. Repeated outbreaks of a hyperdisease could thus quickly drive them to the point of no return. So far MacPhee does not have empirical evidence for the hyperdisease hypothesis, and it won't be easy to come by: hyperlethal disease would kill far too quickly to leave its signature on the bones themselves. But he hopes that analyses of tissue and DNA from the last mammoths to perish will eventually reveal murderous microbes.

F The third explanation for what brought on this North American extinction does not involve human beings. Instead its proponents blame the loss on the weather. The Pleistocene epoch witnessed considerable climatic instability, explains paleontologist Russell W.Graham of the Denver Museum of Nature and Science. As a result, certain habitats disappeared, and species that had once formed communities split apart. For some animals, this change brought opportunity. For much of the megafauna, however, the increasingly

homogeneous environment left them with shrinking geographical ranges-a death sentence for large animals, which need large ranges. Although these creatures managed to maintain viable populations through most of the Pleistocene, the final major fluctuation-the so- called Younger Dryas event- pushed them over the edge, Graham says. For his part, Alroy is convinced that human hunters demolished the titans of the lce Age. The overkill model explains everything the disease and climate

scenarios explain, he asserts, and makes accurate predictions about which species would eventually go extinct. Personally, I'm a vegetarian, he remarks, and I find all of this kind of gross-but believable.

If I have to choose a language that I would like to learn in the future, Spanish is definitely the first thing that comes to my mind which I have been intending to learn for a long time.

I still remember the first time I heard Spanish was from a song called “La isla bonita”, which means the beautiful island, I was truly attracted by the melody and the lyrics of the song even though I couldn’t even understand at that time. Since then, I started to listen to a lot of Spanish songs and watch some Spanish movies, I was almost addicted to its amazing intonation and pronunciation, no wonder people regard Spanish as the language of God.

Well, actually I have already started learning Spanish by myself. I bought some vocabulary books and downloaded a few apps on my phone to learn from the very basic things, but soon I realized that it was more than I could teach myself. Especially when it came to verbs, there were too many forms to master properly without any instructions, it gradually made me confused. Plus, there weren’t any native speakers around me, I had nobody to practice with. Therefore, my plan of learning Spanish didn’t go well like I expected.

Another reason that I would love to learn Spanish is that it is also a world wide language besides English, if I can ever have a chance to visit some of my favorite American countries like Mexico and Colombia, Spanish will become extremely useful.

Well, I really hope that some day I could have the opportunity to take Spanish course and learn from a qualified teacher. I'm aware of the factor that there will be many difficulties during the process, but i believe, "Where there is a will, there is a way."
