【Joey的口语课堂】PART2 口语话题讲解

PART2 口语话题讲解

---电视剧

相信喜欢看美剧和英剧的同学不在少数。最近在温习“生活大爆炸”的前几季，看的过程中突然想到雅思口语part2中也有一个描述电视剧的话题：

看到这个话题的时候，多数同学脑海中可能出现的是“甄嬛传”，“步步惊心”等诸如此类的古装剧，对于词汇量大的同学而言，这的确可以成为一个挑战，但是如果基础不是很好的同学，何必为难自己呢？

所以，今天我们就从美剧中来找找灵感。如何才能更好的描述这个话题呢？

So, let’s have the brainstorming first.

要描述一部电视剧，我们可以从以下几个方面进行：

A brief intro（介绍） about this TV series(type, arrangement etc.);

The major characters;

The content of the whole story;

The meaning it conveys

除了有思路，另外我们则需要了解与电视相关的一些词汇，（BTW, 建立一个词汇库是成功路上不可或缺的部分，非常重要。）

TV series/ TV dramas 电视剧

Sitcom 喜剧/ modern opera 现代剧/ costume piece 古装剧

Character 人物

Episode 一集

Season 一季

Plot 情节

Climax 高潮，巅峰

...

那么接下来我们就可以完成一个完整的两分钟的讲解了。

Intro：

I’m going to talk about a sitcom which is named The Big Bang Theory. Altogether there are 11 seasons and each one contains about 24episodes. Coz it is a kind of sitcom, the length of one episode is about 20 minutes.

Main content&character:

The two main characters of this sitcom are Leonard and Sheldon. Both of them are physicists and they share an apartment. They both have high IQ, but only Leonard has no problem communicating with the average. And Sheldon whose IQ is even higher really lacks social skills and he often finds it hard to interact with the ordinary people.

And there is a girl named Penny who lives next door. She always dreams of becoming an actress but actually she is just a waitress. Leonard has a crush on her, but obviously, they are quite different. So penny starts to show these two intelligent boys what is the real life.

Feelings:

I have great interest in this sitcom cos it is really hilarious. Every time I watch it, I will definitely keep laughing non-stop. And sometimes you just find the conversations are very funny and meanwhile humorous. And I think their friendship is super worth respecting. I’d like to anyone who wants to watch TV series.
