雅思口語：時下最流行的禮物是什么

　　今天和大家一起分析雅思口語相關(guān)話題--gift

　　What are the most popular gifts in China?

　　面對這類“大眾”型話題，可以像麗麗老師一樣進(jìn)行分類描述。這樣可以讓自己的表達(dá)更加有層次感。此外，在考試的時候一定要自然地表達(dá)，不要讓考官覺得你在背或者根本沒有準(zhǔn)備好，其實大家往往可以從口語表達(dá)中體現(xiàn)“思考”的過程。

　　sample answer

　　Well, the way I see it, it depends on who the gift is for. I mean, if you're giving a present to a kid, then I believe toys are the best.

　　For instance, if it's a boy, you can give him a transformer or an action figure. If it's a girl, then I suppose barbie dolls are very good choices.

　　However, if the gift is for an elderly person, perhaps you need to consider giving them something that will be beneficial to their health.

　　Let me think of an example ... Um, there are some products in China that can massage some certain parts of the body like the neck or the waist. So I think these should be the suitable gifts for the old people.
