雅思口语话题：Describe a TV series or drama you enjoy watching

You should say:

What it is

What it’s about

When did you first watched it

And explain why you like watching it

以往这一类题目是要求描述电视节目或者电影, 这一次是电视剧哦, 虽然只是变换了一下类别,但是针对电视剧, 表达上还是有一些不同的, 例如有一季(season), 一集(episode), 描述上故事也会更丰富, 对观众的影响也会由于整个故事发展有一些起伏.

以下的解析是选用了最近笔者很喜欢的看的一部美剧:13个原因(13 reasons why)来展开的, 分为两个sample供大家参考

Sample1: band 7

Okay, I’d like to share with you a TV series I’ve been watching these days called 13 reasons why.

It’s like, em, last month, I got instantly intrigued(吸引) by a recommendation from a famous blogger(博主), saying this show was rated 8.8 out of 10on IMDB(打分高达8.8. *IMDB类似美国豆瓣). Then, for the past month, I quickly finished the whole season(季), 13 episodes(集). Actually, this TV drama is basedon a best-selling book(畅销书), depicting(刻画) a story after teenager ClayJensen found a mysterious box with his name on. Inside he discovered a group of cassette tapes recorded by Hannah Baker-his classmate who tragicallycommitted suicide(自杀) several weeks earlier. On these tapes,Hannah unfolded(展开/呈现) an emotional audio diary(有声日记), detailing the thirteenreasons why she decided to end her life.雅思考试试题

I guess the reason why I quite enjoy this teen series (青少年电视剧) is, to my surprise, it made me think a lot about life, about how our different behaviors may cause negative effects to others we interact with. Seeing Hannah suffering fromconfusion and desperation(迷茫和绝望) the whole time, I really hope someone like her classmates or parents couldgive her a helping hand(帮助她). Sadly, nobody read her mind(了解她的心思) successfully and chose to leave her alone when she said so. I know somehow it’s also Hannah herself who pushed away those who wanted to be close to her.

Anyway, I have to say committing suicide is a super recklessdecision(轻率的决定). Just like one guy inthe show said: suicide is for the weak. Instead of hiding or ignoring the problem, the better way to deal with depression is to go get help from others, telling them directly what you’re really experiencing.

Hopefully, this show could give us some insights(给我们一些启示) into cracking many of the problems(解决问题) that high schoolers(高中生) are facing, like suicide, school bullying(校园霸凌), drug abuse(毒品), and etc.

Sample 2: band 6

Okay, let me say sth. about a TV series Ienjoy watching recently called 13 reasons why. It’s highly recommended(力荐) online so I started to watch it last month.

Generally, it describes a story about teenager Clay Jensen found a box at home. In it, there’re some tapes recorded by HannahBaker-his classmate who committed suicide(自杀)about several weeks earlier. On thesetapes, it’s the thirteen reasons why Hannah decided to kill herself.

Talking about the reasons why I enjoy thisshow so mush, first, my favorite pop singer Selena Gomez works as theproducer(制片人) of this show. I guess it’s thefirst time she works as a producer of a TV drama instead of an actress. So, asa fan, of course I need to support her. Not to mention, itenjoys a very good reputation(口碑很好) both in America and here in China.

More importantly, I’ve keen on(喜欢) teen series for the whole time ever since high school, so this show is just my cup of tea(是我的菜). But the difference is this one discusses some very serious issues like suicide and school bullying. I think it’s not only for young people to watch but everyone, even parents, inorder to prevent teenagers from killing themselves so easily because of these problems they meet in school.
