关于reading,不论是在p1p2p3哪一个part,它都是经常会出现的问题。然而“Reading helps to relax”,“My favorite book is…” ,这些梗是不是都已经滚瓜烂熟了?今天我们要谈的是—阅读的“变化”。开始之前,你可以自己先来想一想,现在人的阅读方式相较以前有了哪些变化?把你的答案记录一下来,再来看看我们的sample answer吧。
Do you think people prefer to read books or magazines?
Sample answer:
Well, I can’t say this for sure, and I might be generalizing, but a lot of people probably prefer to read magazines. I’m only saying that because the society has sort of advanced into a more technological1 one, and I feel that people have become accustomed to brief and instantaneous information. I mean, like nowadays people use social media all the time, where information always appears in a short and extracted form. Now this does save a lot of time, but it also leads to a lack of patience of reading a long book these days. That’s why I suppose magazines are perhaps more preferable to read.

如何升级平淡的“阅读类”回答
1. 词汇替换
A genre is a particular type of literature, painting, music, film, or other art form which people consider as a class because it has special characteristics.
相信很多同学都认识genre这个词啦,在说到文学、电影、音乐、绘画等的种类题材时,都可以用它哦。
l 用sci-fi代替science fiction口语中巧用简化形式会让你更加native和fluent!同理,可以用sitcom来代替situation comedy.
2. 当你要说一本“非常好的”书时,除了用interesting, fascinating,…各种形容词形容它。其实还有更好的办法。
l 名词:page-turner(page+turn er,翻页翻到根本停不下来!)
例句:That book is a real page-turner!
l 动词:grab me from the first page(第一页就把我“抓住”了,意思立马被吸引住了,从此无法自拔)
例句:Les Miserables grabbed me from the first page.
