What kind of accommodation do you live in? {#p1-6933207ee9} ::: details 参考回答 · 先开口再展开 > I currently live in a modern three-bedroom apartment on the fifteenth floor of a high-rise building in the heart of the city. It's a relatively spacious place with about 100 square meters of living space, featuring floor-to-ceiling windows that offer breathtaking views of the cityscape. What I particularly appreciate about my accommodation is its contemporary design and the excellent amenities provided by the building, including a gym and a rooftop garden. ::: ### 2. What's your favourite room in your home? {#p1-2970fbd5a0} ::: details 参考回答 · 先开口再展开 > My favourite room is definitely my living room because it serves multiple purposes in my daily life. It's a bright, airy space with comfortable seating and large windows that let in plenty of natural light. I've decorated it with some beautiful houseplants and artwork that create a calming atmosphere. This room is where I unwind after work, entertain friends, and spend quality time with my family, making it the heart of my home. ::: ### 3. Would you like to move to a different house in the future? {#p1-fdeef8c312} ::: details 参考回答 · 先开口再展开 > Yes, I'm actually considering moving to a standalone house in the suburbs within the next few years. While my current apartment is comfortable, I dream of having my own garden and more personal space. I'm particularly interested in a property that would allow me to design my own home office and perhaps even have a small vegetable garden. The idea of having more control over my living space really appeals to me. ::: ### 4. What changes would you like to make to your current accommodation? {#p1-2c6b2af206} ::: details 参考回答 · 先开口再展开 > If I had the opportunity, I would love to renovate the kitchen to make it more modern and functional. I'd install new energy-efficient appliances and create more counter space for cooking. Additionally, I'd like to add some built-in storage solutions throughout the apartment to maximise space efficiency. These changes would not only improve the aesthetics but also enhance the practical aspects of daily living. ::: ## Part 2 · 讲一段完整经历 {#speaking-part-2} ### 1. Describe a house or apartment you would like to live in in the future. {#p2-4acd7b4a5d} You should say: * What kind of house/apartment it would be * Where it would be located * What special features it would have * And explain why you would like to live there ::: details 参考回答 · 先开口再展开 > I've always dreamed of living in a contemporary eco-friendly house situated in a quiet suburban area, approximately 20 minutes from the city centre. This dream home would be a two-story structure with approximately 200 square meters of living space, designed with sustainability in mind. The house would feature large, energy-efficient windows to maximize natural light and solar panels on the roof to generate clean electricity. > The ground floor would have an open-plan layout, seamlessly connecting the living room, dining area, and kitchen, creating a perfect space for both family gatherings and entertaining guests. One of the most special features would be a state-of-the-art smart home system, controlling everything from lighting to security. The house would also include a dedicated home office with built-in shelving and a view of the garden, essential for maintaining a healthy work-life balance. > The outdoor space would be equally impressive, with a wraparound deck leading to a carefully landscaped garden. I envision having a small vegetable patch and a variety of native plants to support local biodiversity. What makes this house particularly appealing is its perfect blend of modern convenience, environmental consciousness, and connection to nature. The location would offer the best of both worlds – the tranquility of suburban living while maintaining easy access to urban amenities. ::: ## Part 3 · 从个人走向讨论 {#speaking-part-3} ### 1. How has housing in your country changed over the past few decades? {#p3-abef814e90} ::: details 参考回答 · 先开口再展开 > Housing in my country has undergone significant transformation over the past few decades, primarily driven by urbanisation and changing lifestyle preferences. There's been a notable shift from traditional single-family homes to high-rise apartments, particularly in metropolitan areas, to accommodate the growing population. Modern developments now emphasise smart home technology and sustainable features, such as solar panels and energy-efficient designs. Additionally, there's been a trend toward smaller, more efficient living spaces, especially among young professionals who prioritize location and amenities over size. ::: ### 2. What are the main problems people face when looking for accommodation in cities? {#p3-14fdccf075} ::: details 参考回答 · 先开口再展开 > The most pressing challenge is undoubtedly the soaring cost of housing in urban areas, which often forces people to compromise on size or location. Another significant issue is the fierce competition for desirable properties, particularly in prime locations near public transportation or good schools. Many people also struggle with the quality of available housing, as some landlords neglect maintenance to maximize profits. Furthermore, the complex paperwork and substantial deposits required can create additional barriers, especially for young people or newcomers to the city. ::: ### 3. Do you think it's better to rent or buy a house? {#p3-d256e69dde} ::: details 参考回答 · 先开口再展开 > The decision between renting and buying depends largely on individual circumstances, including financial stability, long-term plans, and local market conditions. Buying offers advantages like building equity and having the freedom to customize your living space, while also providing long-term financial security. However, renting provides more flexibility for career mobility and requires less initial investment. In today's dynamic job market, renting might be more practical for young professionals, while buying could be more beneficial for those with stable careers and families. ::: ### 4. What features do you think future houses will have? {#p3-e3c4c09df7} ::: details 参考回答 · 先开口再展开 > Future houses will likely be characterized by advanced technology and environmental sustainability. I envision homes equipped with sophisticated AI systems managing energy consumption, security, and daily tasks. There will probably be a greater emphasis on modular design, allowing spaces to be easily reconfigured for different purposes. Sustainable features like solar panels, rainwater harvesting systems, and integrated urban farming capabilities will likely become standard. Additionally, houses might incorporate health-monitoring systems and improved air filtration as people become more health-conscious. ::: 02 / AFTER THE EXAM带着卡点，回来学先选最需要修补的一题。回看上方示范，按需使用逐句朗读、双向翻译与逻辑链，再脱稿重说。 ::: details 我的材料卡与表达支架 · 有需要再打开 ### 准备一张自己的材料卡 现在住处的一项优点和不足，以及未来的选择。 用三个关键词记住 **谁或什么地方 → 我们做过的一件事 → 我为什么在意**。同一经历可以用于相关题，但每次都要回应当下的题目。针对练习区可以保存你的关键词。 ### 表达支架 * **What I particularly appreciate is…** 我特别看重的是…… 接一个特点，再给生活里的证据。 * **We tend to… together.** 我们常常一起…… 用共同活动说明关系。 * **It reminds me of…** 它让我想起…… 把物品或地方连接到一次经历。 这些是本站提供的表达支架，可按意思调整；原文示范在各题下按需展开。先用已掌握的语言说清楚，再增加表达范围。 ::: ::: details English coaching notes · 原材料的话题提醒 * Use specific vocabulary related to housing (e.g., amenities, furnished, spacious, renovate, residential area) * Share personal experiences about your current or previous accommodation * Discuss both advantages and disadvantages when comparing different types of housing * Support your answers with relevant examples and reasons * Use a mix of tenses appropriately when discussing past, present, and future living situations ::: [练习与复盘方法](./practice-guide.md) · [返回课程地图](./index.md)
