雅思口语里问到任何一门想学的语言,原因无非就是以下几种:1. 喜欢文化或文学作文 2. 喜欢影视作品或者想追星 3. 以后工作需要 4. 想去那里旅行或生活 5. 单纯的装逼show off。所以随便找几点展开就OK了,不用讲真话啦。

I’ve always wanted to study French.

Frist of all, I’m a huge fan of French movies. They are not only romantic but also thought-provoking sometimes. However, I don’t know any French words or grammar except for some simple phrases like bonjour or merci, so every time I watch a French movie, I’ll have to read the subtitles, and sometimes I’ll miss some details in the movie, especially when the characters are talking really fast.

Besides, we all know that France is a romantic country. My dream is to take my future wife to Paris to spend our honeymoon. However, I’m not big on package tours, I want to make flexible travel plans, which means I need to be able to communicate with the local people fluently. So you see, if I could master French, I wouldn't have any language barriers when I’m travelling in that country.

Also, I really admire some of the French writers whose works are just so fascinating, but the thing is, I’ve only read the translated version of their articles and poems. I always thought, if I could have a good command of French, I would be able to read the original French version, you know, it would be like having a conversation with those great people, and I could have a better understanding of their works.

On top of that, as I mentioned earlier, I’m about to study in Canada, and I know that the official language in some parts of Canada is French. So I believe, if I want to fit in with them better, I’d better learn how to speak this language.
