雅思口语P2有话说 |8分素材之街市

Describe a street market or an outdoor market you've been to

You should say :

What it is like

When you went there 

Why you went there 

And how you felt about it

一定要注意这道题目是需要用过去式来表达！这道题同学们看到可能会没有什么思路，不知道从何说起，在城市的同学更是不了解街市是怎么样的。街市大部分是露天的，和商场不一样，售卖的东西比较杂有比较多的商贩同时有独立的摊位。有逛过街市的同学应该比较好上手，选择其中一个感兴趣的商铺进行细说即可；对于没有了解的同学可以想想商场周边的小街市如杭州嘉里中心外围一圈的街市。通常都会售卖比较有特色的手工物品、小吃、二手物品等。

同样这个题目也可以用我们常说的迁移法，但是需要同学们灵活改变，需要一定的经验。没有思路的同学可以将旅游时逛过的古街改编成露天街市，同样也可以把小吃一条街（美食街）一类的地方改编成街市都是可以的。

• 第一小问“What it is like”是什么样的

大致描述这个街市/户外商场的规模、地理位置、人流量以及售卖商品种类。

• 第二小问“When you went there”什么时候去的

表明去的时间，同时讲出是白天的还是夜晚的市场，同时可以补充和谁一起。

• 第三小问“Why you went there  "为什么去

逛街基本就是分为两个原因：有目的的想去买什么东西或只是想要闲逛消遣。

• 第四小问“And how you feel about it”你的感受如何

这一问非常常见，通常都可以分为两个方向。对于这个街市本身的感受以及这次逛街的感受。

下面是关于这个话题可以延伸出来的思维图：

此篇是以夜市为例：

I’m fascinated with open-air market cuz I can always find a lot of unexpected good things, and at the same time, bargaining with the stall owner is also a very interesting experience.

The summer before last year, my friends and I went to Phuket island for an independent travel. The most enjoyable part of the trip was that we could buy many novel things and eat many tasty foods we had never tried before.

One night, after a bonfire party, we were starving and decided to grab something to eat, so we went to a famous night market nearby called Patpong Night Market. We wandered around the fair, which was the size of two football fields. There were people selling clothes, local products, crafts, tattooing and performing street magic. Then, a very vibrant uncle who could speak Chinese pulled us over. We looked around and found it was a stall selling fried insects. It was the first time I saw fried insects, there were fried grasshoppers, fried spiders, fried geckos, fried frogs, and I was really scared at first, thinking how could anyone eat these stuff. I tried to sneak out my phone to take pictures of those bizarre food, but the boss said in perfectly cropped Chinese, “Welcome to take photos.”

The insects looked so disgusting, and the boss noticed our embarrassment and gave us a bunch of fried cockroaches to taste. At first, I refused, but the boss was so enthusiastic. My peers also tried it one after another, and they all said it was delicious. I held my nose and mustered the courage to take my first bite. To my surprise, it tasted good, like eating sticky gummy candies. So I decided to try more and bought every kinds. 

I think it’s a wonderful experience I will never forget, and I wonder when I can try it again.

open-air market 开放市场

stall owner 商贩
