You should say:
When this happened;
What you forgot to do;
Who you were with;
and what consequences you faced.
題目解析:考官要聽你說忘記的一件重要的事情。什么樣的事情是重要的,那要看你怎么去說了,比如forgot my keys , forgot to water my plants, 或者更重要的事情, 比如:forgot the flight, forgot father’s day, forgot my mother’s birthday
重要到什么程度?你可以忘記吃飯,忘記帶鑰匙,忘記澆花,忘記帶手機,但絕對不可以忘記這件事,這件事對我來說意味著什么。
注意事項:這是一道事件題,會考查到大家的時態(tài)表達,在保證語速適中沒有太多停頓的前提下還要保證時態(tài)基本準確,實際上還是比較有難度的,已經(jīng)發(fā)生了的事情必然要涉及到過去時,要注意-ed形式和不規(guī)則的動詞過去式。
思路解析:
what: 先開門見山告訴考官你忘記的事情是什么?
How: 整件事情的起因-經(jīng)過-結(jié)果是什么。本來你還記得,因為什么事情不小心忘記了,之后又是怎么想起來的,做了什么去補償?shù)?
what: 最后可以講這件事給你留下的印象很深刻,此后再也沒有忘記過之類的。
參考詞匯:
somehow 不知怎么地
revision 復習
hearty meal 豐盛的一餐
piss off 生氣
carelessness 粗心
I forgot my mother’s birthday last year. That was the most unthinkable thing for me because I had never forgotten her birthday before. It was actually the time really close to my final exam and I was preparing for it. I thought I wouldn’t forget her birthday and I planed to make her a cake and prepare a hearty meal for her. But I forgot it somehow just on the birthday. I was really busy with my revisions and stuff. When I got home after school my dad reminded me of her birthday. The very first thing I did was that I wrote a sorry card to her. I made a list of all the reason I was glad I got her as a mother and put it in the card. Mom wasn’t really upset.
I actually know there are plenty of things I am allowed to forget. I can forget to feed my dog. I can forget my keys. I can forget the location of my favorite restaurant. But one thing I shall never forget is her birthday. For my mother, her family is everything and she rarely gets angry or shouts at us when she pisses off. I was terribly sorry for my carelessness. And I’ve certainly never forgotten my parents’ birthday since then.
