雅思口語part2沿用話題之skill

在本季度話題中，有一個(gè)話題skill(技能)。首先這并不是一個(gè)完全的新話題，上季度(5-8月)就已經(jīng)有考過同樣的話題;其次，這個(gè)話題其實(shí)很好擴(kuò)充，什么技能，為什么學(xué)習(xí)這個(gè)技能，具體怎么學(xué)習(xí)的，中間遇到了什么樣的問題等等;請同學(xué)們一定要具體描述學(xué)習(xí)技能的過程，加入細(xì)節(jié)描繪，使得整體更加真實(shí)自然。

• Describe something you borrowed from your friend or family.

You should say:

• what you borrowed

• when you borrowed it

• whom you borrowed it from

• And explain why you borrowed it.

下面分享一下這個(gè)話題的sample，是關(guān)于借書的經(jīng)歷:

Sample:

• Well one skill that I have is playing the guitar. I learned it when I was young. I learned how to play because I had many friends that played the guitar and when they played and sang, I knew I just had to learn. At first it was a little difficult because to be quite frank, I really didn’t see myself as someone who was musically I inclined. I had to tell myself that I could do it and little by little, a note here and a chord I there, I managed to pick it up. Even now I have a long way to go with playing but I have found it enjoyable not just for myself, for others have said they enjoy it as well. I have had a few guitars and although there are different styles and qualities, to me it seems that as long as they have strings on them and you can tune them, they are fine.

• I use the guitar to cheer myself up when I am feeling a little down and also use it to teach songs to others. I have never made money teaching guitar but I have made a little money playing and singing. I don’t know if I would want to pursue this skill as a career but as long as I still enjoy it, I am going to do it.

順便分享一下part3部分的一些思路：

IELTS Speaking Part 3

？ 1. Can you compare the skills that are important nowadays with the skills that were important 20 or 30 years ago?

Twenty/thirty years ago, traditional skills like weaving, knitting, sewing and earthenware pottery making were an integral part of people’s lives. But, nowadays, computer, management, language, and data analysis skills are given more importance.

What skills are valued most in your country?

My country is a developing nation and there are many sectors such as banking, manufacturing, information technology and tourism etc. In almost every sector, basic computer skills and communication skills are of utmost significance.

？What kind of skills might be important in the future?

This is an interesting question. Considering the amount of data generated every day, I think that in the future the demand for research and data analysis skills will rise considerably.

Why should companies invest a lot of money in training?

Training programs are vital for the growth of a company. A company with the trained staff is more likely to outperform its competitors. Regular training sessions upgrade the knowledge and skills of employees which in turn leads to higher productivity and profitability. For this reason, many companies spend a major part of their annual budget on different types of trainings.

？Do you think schools and universities prepare young people well for the future employment?

Not really. I think that secondary schools and universities in most parts of the world focus too much on conventional academic subjects like mathematics, science and history etc. Professional skills are often neglected. This imbalance between theoretical and practical knowledge has a negative impact on the future job prospects of young people.

How can people learn practical skills?

A lot of these skills can be learned at home with their mother and father and family. Skills such as sewing, budgeting or maintenance can be learned from an aunt or uncle, grandfather or grandmother. If more difficult trades want to be learned, such as plumber or electrician or mason, there are vocational schools that could leach those. The main thing to learning a skill is the motivation that is involved.

？Do you think children should learn some practical skills at school?

I think that children should learn practical skills at school. This would help to prepare them for life outside of school. A lot of times not much thought is put into how to manage money or take care of an apartment but I think these skills would be helpful. Life in the working world can be a lot different than the sheltered life of schooling, so having some practical skills such as those learned from a part-time job would be beneficial to a student.
