今天为大家带来的是雅思口语Part2＆3新话题：假期旅行的地方，烤鸭们要认真学习呀~

Describe a place you visited on vacation

You should say:

Where it is

When you went there

What you did there

And explain why you went there

#话题分析

想必考鸭们这个国庆去了不少地方旅游吧，国庆是一年中旅游的最 高峰，但挤也是真的挤，最近还是有不断的疫情反复，还是建议大家出游注意安全。回到正题，这道口语话题难度系数不大，题目限定非常宽泛。描述一个地方，是自己旅行曾经去过的就可以，以前国庆去旅行的地方，或者毕业旅行去的地方等都可以，要是实在没有出去旅游过，就把自己上大学的地方或者家乡当作旅游目的地来说也可以。

Where it is

第 一小问是地点类的常规问题，可以给出旅行所在地的位置信息，国内还是国外，哪个城市，是沿海还是内陆呢，还可以说一下城市建设有什么标志性的建筑等都可以。

When you went there

第二小问是什么时候去的，这里我们可以简单说一下，某年的假期或者是几月份，去了多长时间，后来还有再去过吗。

What you did there

第三小问是你在哪里做了什么，这个问题就是回忆自己假期旅游做的事情，每天做了一下什么，挑重点说，比如参观当地的景点，观看表演，或者当时留下记忆深刻的事情。

And explain why you went there

最后一小问是你为什么会去哪里，因为这个地点类话题也是不设限制的，所以我们可以说自己对这座城市的憧憬，或者某个博主去旅游的推荐，也可能是因为某个人热爱的城市等。

#范文

Today I am going to speak about a place where I went on holidays.The name of the place is Manali. It’s a picturesque hill station located in Himachal Pradesh, a state in northern India.

I went to Manali last week with my family. Since it is quite far, approximately 500 kilometers, from my hometown Dehradun, we decided to set off on Friday night. It was a very long drive, about 12 hours. We reached there on Saturday morning.Manali has a lot to offer to its tourists of all ages. For the elderly and religious people, there are many ancient temples. Young adventure seekers have a wide range of sporting activities like skiing, snowmobiling, rafting, river crossing, trekking and paragliding etc. at their disposal.

On the first day of our holiday, we trekked through a dense cedar forest to reach Hadimba temple. It is the oldest temple of Manali and has a lot of religious significance in the local community. The next day we went to Solang Valley. Fortunately, we found plenty of snow in the valley. Without wasting our time, we made a small but very pretty igloo. We took the photographs of all the places we visited.

This place has impressed me very much. The main reason is its pleasant weather. Apart from that, people are honest, friendly and co-operative. They always give you the right information. Transport facilities and hotels are also well-maintained.

P3 假期旅行的地方

     # What are some popular attractions that people like to visit in your country?

The Forbidden City & the Imperial Palace, Beijing. China's largest and most important building, the Forbidden City (Zǐjìnchéng) - also known as the Imperial Palace - is situated in the very heart of Beijing and is a must-see when visiting the country.

      # Do old people and young people choose different places to go on vacation?Why?

In 2019, the average millennial (ages 21 to 37) plans on taking roughly five trips throughout the year, three of which are expected to be international, according to AARP's 2019 Travel Trends report. That's more international trips than Gen X (ages 38 to 53) and more overall trips than Baby Boomers (ages 54 to 72).

     # What do young people and old people think about when making travel plans?

First, the safety factor. This is easy to understand. After all, it's going to travel, not looking for crimes, so the security issues of the destination, such as security, disease, etc., directly affect the way people choose to travel.

Second, the price factor. This is also the main factor. Generally, group tours are cheap but very restrictive. Other methods have their own characteristics, but there is a unified problem, that is, the price will be much higher than group tours.

Third, the language factor. This is only related to outbound travel. After all, language barriers will have a great impact on travel, and it is also a major factor that directly affects the choice of travel methods.

     # How do people find out about a new place?

Go running or walking. Hit the ground running — literally. Take a cooking class. Travel lightly. Strike up conversation. Related Stories, like Harry Potter.
