2022年5-8月雅思口语 Part 1 Computers

1. In what conditions would you use a computer?‍

示范音频:

I use my laptop a lot for study, like, it’s indispensable for my study, especially these days, because of the recent Omicron surge, we are in lockdown and we are constrained in our homes, schools have moved online and we now have online classes a lot. And when I take a break from studying, I use my laptop for entertainment, I’m on TikTok a lot, I play video games. I also edit photos and videos I take on my laptop before posting them on social media.

2. When was the first time you used a computer?

示范音频:

When I was very young, it was actually my dad’s laptop, it was a Lenovo Thinkpad, cost my dad a fortune. I loved playing video games on it, I was really addicted. I often pestered my dad to let me use his laptop. He was not happy about it, when he was done working on the laptop, he’d lock it up. We still have it, but of course, it doesn’t work now, can’t even turn it on.

3. What will your life be like without computers?

示范音频:

I honestly can’t imagine what my life will be like without computers, first of all, I wouldn’t be able to do my school assignments, you know, our teachers assign us homework that we have to download from our school website, how can I do it if I don’t have a computer? And, I would feel bored to death if I can’t watch youtube or Tiktok on my computer, what am I supposed to do for entertainment after school?

4. In what conditions would it be difficult for you to use a computer?

示范音频:

Definitely when there’s no wifi, I mean, if you don’t have wifi, your computer is basically useless. I once went on this multi day hike in the mountains, and we camped there for like 3 days, I took my laptop with me but there was no wifi the entire time. I barely used my laptop, I even felt like it was a piece of junk that I might as well just throw away.

注释:

lockdown 封控

be constrained in sb home 限制在家里

cost sb a fortune 花了很多钱

a piece of junk 一块垃圾

2022年5-8月雅思口语 Part 1 Advertisements

1. Are you interested in watching TV advertisements or internet advertisements?

示范音频:

Nobody is interested in watching advertisements. I mean, advertisements are annoying. Imagine you are watching your fav show and a tv commercial pops up right in the middle of it, it just interrupts everything, it’s such a buzzkill. And those advertisements on video websites, like, when you click on a video, you are forced to watch an ad before the video starts, and you can’t skip it unless you buy a membership of the site.

2. What kinds of advertisements do you dislike?

示范音频:

I dislike advertisements for products irrelevant to me. I feel like anti hair loss shampoos are heavily advertised on TV. Well, the thing is I don’t lose hair myself, and I know that when you lose hair, you lose hair, there’s nothing you can do about it, basically, I feel like these ads are lying and fooling people because these shampoos won’t work. I also hate advertisements that have 0 creativity in them, like, they just repeat a piece of information over and over again, somehow, they think that makes people remember the product, well, personally, it just makes me hate the product even more, not in a million years would I buy it.

3. Do you share advertisements with others?

示范音频:

I think I’ve talked a lot about how I find advertisements annoying, why would I share advertisements to others to annoy them? I’d be out of my mind. Besides, you know, some people are easily swayed by advertisements. Like, if I send an ad to somebody and they actually believe what the ad says and go buy the product, and it turns out to be a crappy product, they could blame me for that. I don’t wanna be the scapegoat.

4. Do you want to work in advertising in the future?

示范音频:

Definitely not. First of all, I would never work a job where all I do is to make other people feel annoyed, I don’t wanna hate myself for what I do. I mean, I’ve watched the TV show Mad Men which really romanticizes advertising, and Don Draper is super charming but it’s all just fiction. Secondly, I’m actually going to to study computer science in college, when I graduate, I’d probably go work for a tech company, I don’t think my work is going to have anything to do with advertising.

注释:

tv commercial 电视广告

pop up 突然冒出来

buzzkill 扫兴的东西

skip 跳过

irrelevant 无关的

not in a million years 绝不

be swayed 受到影响

scapegoat 替罪羊
