喜欢刷视频打发时间的孩子,肯定少不了YouTube的陪伴,虽然要历尽千辛万苦翻个墙……
其实也不一定非得是YouTube,跟雅思考官说Youku也OK,就说是个Chinese version of YouTube,考官肯定秒懂。
剩下的任务就是把网上的视频分类介绍了,可以有职业搞笑选手,有翻唱歌手,有美妆博主,有时尚达人,有极限运动爱好者,有萌宠集中营,还有教授网友各种技能的视频,每个展开聊几句,时间肯定满足要求:
I’d like to talk about YouTube, you know, the video sharing website, but actually, it is blocked in China, I’ll need a VPN in order to log on to the site.
I’ve been a visitor of this website for as long as I could remember, at first, I was really into those hilarious videos, for example, there are people imitating the plots of a certain movie, like a parody of a horror film or things like that. And sometimes they would change the voice of the movie, and replace them with funny dialects.
I love to watch them ‘cause it’s a great way to kill time and release the pressure, as they say, laughter is the best medicine, right?
And these years, there are super talented singers who post their cover songs to this website, and they have tons of followers, well, obviously, I’m one of them. And to be honest, sometimes they sound more appealing than the original ones.
Besides, if you are a risk taker, you would love this website ‘cause you’ll find a lot of people who share the same interests. People who are crazy about extreme sports would post videos about their adventure, like jumping off buildings or doing difficult and dangerous actions near the cliff. Every time I watch those videos, I would be like, ‘Wow! Amazing! Incredible!’
And tutorials are also available there. All kinds of ‘icons’ would teach viewers certain skills, like how to do makeup, how to cook, how to match your clothes, and things like that.
So you see, you can always find something you are interested in on that website.
