　　話題考頻：

　　有關(guān)于meal or dinner的話題無處不在，尤其考慮到可能還會講有關(guān)于菜肴或者烹飪的過程，所以考生們要做比較充分的準備。同時，在話題中還會加上一些限定的內(nèi)容，比如：memorable, special這樣的詞出現(xiàn)，那么考生就一定要注意根據(jù)出現(xiàn)的限定來強調(diào)論述的重點內(nèi)容。關(guān)于這個話題，我就來說說很值得回憶的有關(guān)于大學畢業(yè)典禮那天的一頓飯。

　　話題解析：

　　1. 這個話題中首先要強調(diào)的是對于題目中限定內(nèi)容的關(guān)注與重視。話題是Describe a memorable meal or dinner you had.考生需要關(guān)注的重點詞匯首先是memorable，在論述開始的時候可以以重復題目或重點詞匯的方式引出要說的內(nèi)容。這樣就讓考官很清楚的知道考生對于題目的把握是完全沒有問題的。另外，考生還可以在中間論述時用到special, unforgettable 一類的詞語作為memorable的替換內(nèi)容。

　　2. 時態(tài)是仍然需要考生注意的重點之一。話題中已經(jīng)提到了meal or dinner you had，必須要用到的是過去時，無論是對于事件的描述，還是當時的心情，考生都要注意時態(tài)，并重點關(guān)注時態(tài)一致。因為很多考生在說話時常常會現(xiàn)在時與過去時混雜使用，讓考官非常抓狂。

　　3. 對于整個事件的描述要求考生提前做好相應的準備，如論是有關(guān)于這頓飯本身還是描述時使用的詞匯方面。對于這頓飯本身來講，考生要給予一定的描述，例如：餐館的裝修，飯菜的名稱，氛圍的描述等等。當然在描述的時候?qū)τ谛稳莺玫脑~語也要做替換，考生可以參考使用beautiful，amazing，fantastic等等。以豐富論述的用詞及內(nèi)容。

　　范例：

　　I’m going to talk about a memorable meal I had. It was right after my university graduation, when I was about 21. My whole family came to see me graduate and it was a very proud day. After the ceremony we all went to a nearby restaurant, which was busy with other families who were all doing the same thing. The atmosphere was exciting and busy. The restaurant was beautiful, with long tables, candles and flowers. My family also gave me a huge bunch of flowers and some cards and special gifts. I was there with my mum, dad, two brothers and my grandfather and I remember that we ordered a lot of seafood to celebrate. I can’t really remember what else we ate, but the seafood was nice. Oh, that’s right, we had lobster to share, which was amazing. We spent all afternoon at the restaurant, talking, eating and laughing. And of course, we took lots of photos. My father made a speech of congratulations and wished me good luck for the future. It was such a memorable day because I knew that my family was very proud of me and we all shared my celebration together. And everything about the restaurant was perfect. The waiters were friendly and the food was fantastic. I am happy that I remember this special day in my life so clearly as well as the meal.
