「雅思口语」高频话题：Describe a change that can improve your local area

口语题目：Describe a change that can improve your local area

You should say:

• What it is
• How it can be made
• What problem it might bring
• And how you feel about it

首先，我们要注意时态，题目要求讲什么变化能够使你的城市变的更好，所以这一切还未发生，你要做的就是指出问题并且给出建议。

其次，从内容上来讲我们可以从城市的方方面面考虑；例如：交通、教育、经济、就业、医疗等。不过这些可能都要涉及一些专业词汇，为了保证话题好说我们一定要选择自己比较熟悉的。下面就以 “poor traffic condition” 为例让给大家捋一下思路。

Well, in my town, traffic is a major daily headache and it’s time to make it better.

Literally speaking, being stuck in the heavy traffic flow is like an everyday occurrence, especially on peak time. What’s worse, if you are unlucky enough to get caught in an extreme weather, like a downpour or a snowstorm, a half-hour drive will turn into 2 hours even longer.

While, the thing is the economic level of XX is nowhere near Peking or SH, why is it so congested? Maybe growing private cars and poor traffic management should be blamed for this issue. To address the problem, our local government should put some actions into practice. For one thing, we need to create priority lanes or express lanes for buses, by doing so, commuters would take public transport as their number one choice to get around, instead of driving. For another, the government could give more concern on the bicycle sharing service. To my knowledge, riding is a great way of getting to our destination without contributing to traffic. Not only will this take cars off the road, but it will improve our health and help the environment as well. You know, it’s like killing two birds with one stone.

Indeed, it’s not a modest investment, but I do believe it’s worth the money in the long run.

其实这个话题还是很好用的，我们准备了一个交通堵塞可以轻松地迁移到其他的题目中。例如：“拥挤的地方”、“被延迟的重要旅行”、“因天气而受影响的活动” 等。

• Describe a crowded place you went to
• Describe an important journey that was delayed
• Describe an occasion when weather prevented your activity

我们只要讲去旅行的糟糕经历就好了，原计划去某地，但是遇到了高峰期，结果堵了很久，更糟糕的是在堵车的过程中天降大雨导致路更堵了，一条路上都是车都是人，想走的走不了。结果就是要么你错过了航班或是火车，要么就是彻底取消这次行程。所以你就特别希望政府可以做些什么来治理下糟糕的交通。

Well, this topic reminds me a time I was caught in __ . And more regretfully, I missed a XX I actually looked forward to.

Well, in my town, traffic is a major daily headache. Literally speaking, being stuck in the heavy traffic flow is like an everyday occurrence, especially on peak time. The other day, I was on my way to XX and the terrible thing happened. One moment it was sunny and warm, but the next it became raining cats and dogs, which made the traffic even worse. I mean, the main street was packed with cars and worried drivers and passengers. You could hear the unbearably loud car horns and helpless sighs from people.

Anyway, that was not the worst part of the day. I__ (迟到了? 取消了)

Personally speaking, to address the problem, the local government should put some actions into practice. For one thing, blah blah blah

For another, blah blah blah
