Introduction:

A: Most of the students really have issues with Part 1, because they may not be familiar with the topic.

J: At Part 1, in the beginning, people get really nervous and even want to stop having the test, while facing a foreign examiner with blue eyes or grey eyes.

大多數學生都覺得part1挺棘手的，因為他們可能不熟悉考題中的話題。一看到藍瞳或者灰瞳的外國考官們，考生們就開始很緊張甚至想直接停止考試。

Though you don't prepare for it, the skills we mention here are still very useful. Because IELTS speaking topics are so closely related to our daily life and conducive to our spoken English.

盡管一些小伙伴沒在準備雅思，但是這些內容還是大有裨益。因為雅思的口語話題都很貼近人們的日常生活，對大家提升口語很有幫助。

Tips:

A: They are going to ask about your daily life. It's nothing out of the box. They're not gonna ask you difficult topics. Above all, don't panic! It's just a very normal conversation.

考官們會詢問你的日常生活是什么樣。沒有什么創新性的話題。他們也不會問你一些很難的問題。最最重要的是，不要自亂陣腳！只不過是一些很平常的對話。

Buzzword：

Out of the box: It's an expression that describes nonconformal, creative thinking.創造性的，思維不合常規的

Alex means that don't expect to be asking you about astronomy or physics or stuff like that. It's just going to be like about yourself, like your study, hometown, what do you prefer, what do you do. It's gonna be very basic rather than crazy topics.

Alex的意思就是不要覺得考官會問你一些什么天文學，物理這些東西。考題只涉及到你自己，比如你的學習，家鄉，你喜歡什么，你的工作是什么。不會有什么很瘋狂的話題，都是很基礎的問答。
