家里放松的地方
IELTS SPEAKING PART 2
雅思口语Part 2“家里放松的地方”难倒了不少小伙伴。这个题虽然是归到地点类,但用地点类题目的框架似乎又不太好套用,得单独处理。再者,家里放松的地方选择很有限,基本就是卧室、阳台、客厅,对于很多小伙伴来说,要讲满两分钟确实有些困难。
其实在这个题目中,大家可以结合这个放松地的某个特点(如家具、摆设、风景等),再设定一些场景和对应的活动即可。
参考答案:Well, the balcony is the best spot in my home where I work and relax.
I live on the upper floors, which allows me to enjoy a superb view of the neighbourhood. Probably, the best part is that a park is nearby. It’s a small park, but surprisingly, it’s got plenty of mighty, shady trees. I can’t exactly tell what kind of trees they’re, but in my memory, they’re evergreen - unlike other tree species which shed leaves in autumn, they’re still leafy, even in freezing winter. As I work from home most of the time, I can relax my eyes a bit by standing on the balcony and overlooking the trees in the park. In the spring, these trees blossom with lovely pale pink flowers. You can imagine how refreshing it is to admire them from a distance. When the weather is bright and clear, I can feast my eyes on the glorious sunset at dusk. It's so great!

On my balcony, there’s a built-in desk with light brown wooden shelves overhead, where a diverse collection of books are stored. Over the weekend, I usually make myself a cup of fresh coffee and then grab a book to read there. It feels great to do some reading while sipping coffee. When summer comes around, it can be sweltering, and the sun can be harsh, so I'll shut my silk curtains so that only soft light comes in. If I feel too lethargic or too demotivated to work, I'll head to my balcony, sit on my comfy chair and watch a couple of funny shows on my laptop.
