雅思口语 Part 1新题Cakes & Desserts

在今天的推送中,我们来看看这个季度Part 1的一个新话题——cakes and desserts。大家可以根据文中梳理的思路和语料来组织与自己情况相关的答案。

Do you like eating cakeor other dessert?

Do you eat cakeor dessertafter meals?

Have you ever made cakeor dessertby yourself?/Can you makecake/dessertby yourself?

Why do some people dislike eating dessertand cake?

Are there any traditional cakes in your country?

这个话题其实和之前的ice cream, chocolate, snacks有很多相通的地方,所以相关的语料也是可以应用过来的。比如这几类东西都是甜品、甜食,我们便可以结合是否喜欢吃甜食来做回应。在讲ice cream和巧克力时有小伙伴可能会提到口味,同样地,cake也可以有相应的口味。ice cream可以说是夏日的必备品了,那在一些特殊场合或节日,cake自然也是不可缺少的单品。但有的人可能是出于无奈不能吃蛋糕,比如受不了里面的奶油/黄油,或是对鸡蛋过敏。

相关表达:

have a sweet tooth 喜欢甜食

be (not) into …喜欢/不喜欢……

a must for … ……必备品

be allergic to eggs 对鸡蛋过敏

whipping/whipped cream 鲜奶油

butter 黄油

a piece of/slice of cake 一块蛋糕

bakery 烘培店

sweet taste 甜味

the texture is soft and creamy 口感柔软细腻

can’t resist the temptation to … 无法抵挡……的诱惑做……

put me in a good mood让我心情好

常见的蛋糕类型和配料:

a chocolate/cream/fruit/lemon/vanilla cake 巧克力/奶油/水果/柠檬/香草蛋糕

chiffon cake 戚风蛋糕

sponge cake 海绵蛋糕

Swiss roll (cake)瑞士卷

cupcake 纸杯蛋糕

(fudge) brownie (软糖)布朗尼

a cheese topping 奶酪浇头(topping:蛋糕或冰激凌等最面上可食用的装饰物)

extra topping 额外的浇头

fruit filling 水果馅

creamy filling 奶油馅

chocolate syrup 巧克力糖浆

mung bean cake 绿豆糕

jujube cake 枣糕

参考例句:

Though I’m not that into sweets, I do eat cake from time to time. When I meet up with a friend at a coffee house, for instance, I usually order a cup of fresh coffee and a sponge cake.

I must say I have a sweet tooth. I eat cake almost every day, and a fudge brownie is my favourite. You know, it’s a perfect combination of chocolate and cake.

I don’t eat cakethat often. The only occasion I consume it is on my birthday or my friends’ birthdays.

I like Swiss roll cake the most. It’s got a light sponge and creamy filling. I always eat it with a latte in the morning as part of my breakfast.

针对cake这个话题,我们也可以结合健康相关的内容进行回应。比如女孩子永不停歇的话题——减肥。蛋糕这种东西,卡路里太多啦!如果吃一块蛋糕,可能意味着自己要做一小时的有氧运动才能消耗掉其能量。再者,吃太多的蛋糕,对牙齿不太好,尤其是对小朋友的牙齿。所以,可能小时候就算很喜欢吃蛋糕,父母也不允许,因为总跟自己说“蛋糕吃多了会长蛀牙”,只是偶尔作为奖励给自己买一小块蛋糕。当然啦,你也可以直接说小时侯就是偷偷吃了太多甜食了,导致自己长了蛀牙,现在很后悔,自然也很少吃了。

相关表达:

keep in shape 保持体形,保持健康

lose weight 减肥

put on/gain fat 长胖

burn (off) fat 燃烧脂肪

burn off calories 燃烧卡路里

a high-calorie snack 高热量的零食

start counting calories 开始计算卡路里(指开始控制自己的饮食)

aerobic exercise 有氧运动

reduce my sugar consumption 减少自己的糖分摄入量

cause tooth decay 导致蛀牙

it takes its toll on me 对我造成伤害

as a reward 作为奖励

sneak cake 偷吃蛋糕

参考例句:

I’ve started counting calories most recently. I need to avoid foods like that.

It’s a high-calorie snack. If I have some cake, such as a slice of chiffon cake or chocolate cake, I have to do an hour of aerobic exercise to burn off calories.

My parents didn’t allow me to eat much cake. They always said it would cause tooth decay.

Well, I always sneaked cake when I was little. Now, it takes its toll on me—I've got decayed teeth. Therefore, I have to go to the dentist regularly!

在cake话题中可能会涉及与“茶与咖啡”类似的问题,即你自己会做吗?或许自己没做过,但有想过,只是迫于没有相应的设备和工具还没有尝试。又或许某一次心血来潮跟着网上的某个视频教程做了个一个小蛋糕,结果却不理想,浪费了食材。再或是自己只对“吃”感兴趣,对“做”并不感兴趣,也完全不了解。如果你是烘培达人,那就可以秀一番:隔三差五就会做,并且会分享给家人或朋友。自己有独家秘方,做出来的蛋糕比烘培店的还要好吃。

相关表达:

oven 烤箱

microwave oven 微波炉

baking pan 烘盘

waste a lot of ingredients 浪费很多材料

be in the mood for sth/to do sth.有做某事的兴致

on a whim 一时兴起

successfully made a chocolate cake from scratch 从零开始成功做了一个巧克力蛋糕

time-consuming 耗时的

a real hassle 真麻烦

kitchen utensil 厨房用具

mixer 搅拌机,搅拌器

beat the cream 搅拌奶油

is burnt 糊了,烧焦了

video tutorial 视频教程

follow the instructions step by step 一步一步跟着指示

know nothing about… 对……完全不了解

homemade cake 自制蛋糕

a special/secret recipe 特殊/秘密配分

参考例句:

Once, I wanted to bake a cake or something on a whim. So, I went online, found a video tutorial and then followed the instructions step by step. It turned out to be a disaster! The cake was burnt, so I wasted a lot of ingredients.

Actually, baking is one of my hobbies. On weekends, I enjoy staying at home and trying out my special recipes.

I’ve never tried that. I don’t have any baking equipment. Besides, I’m not good at dealing with kitchen utensils, using a mixer to beat the cream, for example.
