Home/House/Apartment
Do you currently live in a house or a flat/apartment?
I live in a flat not far from the town center.
I currently live in a 300-square-meter house in the southern suburb of thetown.
考生要理解flat/apartment与house概念上的差异。前者指的是公寓房,也就是大多数中国家庭所居住的楼房,单元房等。后者指的是中国人印象中的独立的有前庭后院的别墅房。
Can you describe your house/flat?
Sure. The flat has 6 rooms—one living room, one kitchen, one bathroom andthree bedrooms for my parents, my brother and myself. The extra one is for theguest who would come to stay with us.
考生可以简单描述自己的flat或者apartment所有的房间以及房间的功用和布置。回答没有必要很详细,做出简单的概括就可以了。
What main items of furniture or appliances
do you have in each room?
There aren’t many things in my home. To begin with, there is plasma TV withtwo surrounding speakers on each side in the living room. In front of it are acoffee table and a set of couches arranged in a half circle. There are also, ofcourse, a few pieces of decorations in the corners and on the walls of theliving room. In the bedrooms there is really nothing special, but only beds.However, in my parents’ room there is another TV and in mine, a desktopcomputer, because, you see, I have to work on my computer everyday.
考生可以举例描述一两个房间的电器或者家具。
Is it a typical house/flat in your city?
Yes, it is. You’ll find tons of flats/houses like this in my city.
Not really. I don’t think most people can afford a big house/flat like thisone.
与所有其他题目一样,考生除了直接回答问题还要进行简单的延伸,例如解释原因或者进一步描述,以充分展示自己的英文表达能力。
