雅思口语part2范文
Well, I in my life I have tasted so many birthday cakes, anniversary cakes, and marriage cakes. But after reading the word “special cake”, there’s only one cake which I think is special. So here I would talk about it.
好吧，在我的生活中，我已经品尝了那么多的生日蛋糕、周年纪念蛋糕和结婚蛋糕。但是在看了“特别蛋糕”这个词之后，我认为只有一个蛋糕是特别的。这里我要讲一下。
It is a red velvet cake. Red Velvet cake is a red or red-brown layer cake and this cake is usually topped with yummy cream cheese frosting. Unlike normal cakes, this cake has a blood red interior.It'ss common ingredients include buttermilk, butter, cocoa, and flour for the cake, beetroot for the colour.
这是一个红色的天鹅绒蛋糕。红色天鹅绒蛋糕是红色或红褐色的蛋糕，而这个蛋糕通常是美味的奶油芝士糖霜。不像普通的蛋糕，这个蛋糕有血红色的内部。它的常见配料有奶油牛奶、黄油、可可和面粉，还有甜菜的颜色。
As it is commonly served on Christmas or Valentine's Day, So I got chance to taste this cake last year.
因为它通常是在圣诞节或情人节，所以我去年有机会品尝这个蛋糕。
I tasted this cake in a Christmas Party held at Hyatt Hotel in Ludhiana. Overall, it was a Christmas party with lots of fun and games. Hopefully, I would be going there this year also.
我在卢迪亚纳的凯悦酒店举行的圣诞晚会上品尝了这个蛋糕。总的来说，这是一个充满乐趣和游戏的圣诞派对。希望我今年也会去那里。
As I said earlier I tasted this cake in a party, so I had this cake with everyone who was present in the party. No doubt, majority of them were not known to me, but while celebrating, we all enjoyed the party together. I was familiar there with only one person, and that was my friend – Barack Obama.

Well, I believe this cake is very special. It is because for the first time in my life, I tasted a cake which was red in colour. Moreover, it was 4 tier cake.

This cake is also called as “red Waldorf cake,” “red carpet cake,” “red mystery cake,” “flame cake,” and “0 cake”.

The most special meal I’ve ever had in my life was on my Dad’s birthday last year, which was prepared by all of my family members.
我这辈子吃过的最特别的一餐是在去年我爸爸的生日那天，是我所有的家人准备的。
The idea was put forward by my sister. We planned to surprise him and prepare his favorite foods. On that day, my Mom cooked Pho, a Vietnamese beef noodles, while I baked a birthday cake for him. My siblings were in charge of decoration and music. Everything had been done properly a little bit earlier before he came home. When he opened the door, he was astonished because of seeing a colorful “Happy birthday Daddy” banner sticked on the wall in the living room. Standing in front, my mom gave him a bouquet of red roses, his favorite flowers. We enjoyed the scrumptious meal and shared our best memories with my Dad.
这个主意是我姐姐提出的。我们打算给他一个惊喜，准备他最喜欢的食物。那天，我妈妈做了越南牛肉面，我给他烤了一个生日蛋糕。我的兄弟姐妹负责装饰和音乐。在他回家之前，一切都做得很好。当他打开门，他很惊讶，因为他看到一个彩色的“生日快乐，爸爸”的横幅贴在客厅的墙上。妈妈站在他面前，给了他一束红玫瑰，这是他最喜欢的花。我们享用了美味的饭菜，并和爸爸分享了我们最美好的回忆。
After washing dishes, we gathered together in the living room. My Dad made a wish and blew candles. He said in tears that he was over the moon and he was proud of us, his home and his family. We gave each other great hugs before going to sleep.

雅思口语话题之食物一、关于食材及烹饪方法的表达
要想表达出诱人的食物，食材与烹饪方法的表达是基础。中国的菜名有些比较文艺和隐晦，比如：蚂蚁上树，佛跳墙等，光看字面是难以猜出到底是什么菜的。而西方的表达方法截然不同，他们会明确表达清楚菜的食材及烹饪方法。所以，为了更地道地表达菜名，在口语考试中在考官面前大秀你的词汇积累的话，打好“食材”及“烹饪方法”的词汇基础是关键。下面，让我们一起来看一看相关词汇的整理。
关于肉类：pork(猪肉)、lamb(羊肉)、beef(牛肉)、fish fillet(鱼肉)、steak(牛排)、chicken(鸡肉)
关于豆类：Toufu/bean curd(豆腐)、bean curd sheets(百叶)
关于烹饪方法：
steam(蒸)，例如：steamed eggs(蒸鸡蛋)
braised(红烧)，例如：braised pork(红烧肉)
stir fried(炒)，例如：stir fried liver(炒猪肝)
stew(炖)，例如：stewed pig hoof(炖猪蹄)
二、关于菜名的表达
在雅思口语Part 1中，有个topic关于“cooking”, 其中一些问题是这么问的：“What cooking experience have you had?” 关于这道问题的回答，光光说自己有煮饭的经历会显得很苍白无力，而要是能向考官具体举出一两道自己的拿手菜名，那真真是极好的。再比如，在当前考察的Part2话题中，有一个话题为“Describe a meal you invited others to your home or restraint(请客吃饭)”，考生在表达邀请朋友去自家吃饭或者饭店吃饭的时候，也往往需要涉及到自己的拿手菜，或者某个饭店的特色菜。但是，在考虑到菜名翻译的时候，又让许多考生感到头疼，因为中国的文字博大精深，加上中西文化的差异，许多考生担心自己的中式表达不一定能与考官进行有效的交流。
谈到翻译，的确是一山远比一山高，不同的功力可以表达出不同的境界，不是一句两句就能道出其精髓的。但是，本文旨在为考生们推荐一些实用的菜名翻译方法。在口语表达中，最方便的菜名应该采用写实性命名法，即将菜肴的原料、烹饪方法、菜肴的味、形等翻译出来，让考官一目了然。可以归纳为以下三种公式：
1. 以主料开头的翻译法
这种方法主要是介绍菜肴的主料和辅料，即公式：主料(形状)+with辅料
西方人之所以要将菜肴的材料全部写清楚，是因为有相当一部分人对部分材料有过敏反映，例如，有些人对花生，或者海鲜过敏。所以，在菜名翻译中完全体现所用材料可以让他们避开自己不能食用的菜。
例如：
杏仁鸡丁的翻译为：chicken cubes with almond
番茄炒鸡蛋的翻译：scrambled egg with tomato
2. 以烹饪方法开头的翻译法
这种方法主要是介绍菜肴的烹饪和主料，即公式：烹法+主料(形状)
例如：
软炸里脊翻译为：soft-fried pork fillet
烤乳猪翻译为：roast suckling pig
当然，用这种方法，我们也可以把番茄炒鸡蛋翻译成另外一个版本，也是笔者多年国外留学经历中见到的最常见的翻译，即“stir fried tomato with eggs”。
3. 以人名或者地名作为开头的翻译法
在我们的家常菜中，有一道菜很受欢迎，即“麻婆豆腐”。如果要套用上述主料翻译法的话，这道菜翻译为：stewed beancurd with minced pork in pepper sauce. 如此长且复杂的翻译肯定让许多考生大为苦恼，不过如果用人名或地名开头翻译法的话，这道菜就变成了简简单单的“Ma Po Toufu”了。
例如：
四川水饺可以翻译为：Sichuan boiled dumplings
北京烤鸭可以翻译为：Beijing roast duck
本篇文章从雅思口语关于“吃”的话题为出发点，归纳总结了一些关于食材，烹饪方法以及菜名翻译的三种表达方式。希望引起烤鸭们对食物专题的重视，灵活掌握及表达跟食物相关的话题任务，真正做一名征服考官的“foodie”。
