雅思口语里最近大热的题目之一是a time when someone made a noise。 住过寝室的孩子们,有没有发现过一个亘古不变的现象,每一个寝室,都会有一位奇葩室友…… 回想一下你的室友们,是不是可以套用到这个雅思口语话题里?
这位室友很有可能是极其不自觉的半夜在床上煲电话粥,或者晚自习回来从来不在乎已经睡着的室友的感受,各种洗漱各种叮叮当当,或者有那种超级early bird,早上疯狂翻书,然后去教室补觉,或者不顾室友反对在寝室养各种奇怪的动物…… 当然说梦话打呼噜梦游之类的室友们,我们也不能怪他们,但是的确真的很noisy啊是不是… 还有下面这位通宵打游戏的娃,真的是雅思口语的绝好素材啊!
I’m now living off campus because I had this unbearable self-centered roommate who would play video games all night long and made it impossible for me to rest. She's a huge fan of LOL, which is rare for girls, 'cause generally only boys would be so obsessed with this game. She's the only girl I know who's crazy about it. As far as I know, she basically spends all her waking hours and all of her money on the game. Anyway, her fingers are incredibly flexible, which would make disturbing noises when she clicks the mouse or presses the keyboard. And when she plays, she doesn't do it alone. She's in a team online with her high school classmates and her boyfriend. And you know how this game works. They need to discuss the strategy with each other to win the battle, so we always hear her screaming to the microphone "Run faster, cover me, protect the tower." And the worst part is, when they lose the game, she would get extremely furious, and pounds her desk real hard. We've put up with her for a long time, ‘cause we didn’t want any bad feelings between us. But a couple of months ago, during our final exam, she still kept doing it, making intolerable noises. Everyone was exhausted after a long day's study, so we desperately needed a good sleep. We couldn’t stand it any longer, so the rest of us basically yelled at her at the same time, “Would you stop it already or at least keep it down!” But she didn't react as if she didn't hear us at all. So we decided it's time to move out.
所以,现在是时候,把你的室友搬出来调侃一下了!快跟雅思考官诉诉苦,在雅思口语里说说你那些奇葩的室友吧!
