I’d like to talk about my dog. It’s a husky, if you are also a dog person, then you would know that huskies tend to be stupid, but in a cute way, you know. I bought it from a pet store about 4 years ago when it was still a lovely puppy. Back then, it was just like a ball of fur, rolling around on the floor, but it just grew so fast, after about several months, the adorable fluffy ball just turned into a naughty, shoes biting dog who eats his own poop. Sometimes he could be so annoying, but sometimes he could also be so hilarious. For example, when he’s asleep, his paws would suddenly start to move, like he’s running or something. I have so many videos like that in my phone. And he’s not like other dogs who are so into taking walks, my dog is so lazy that every day I need to drag him out of the house. And also because of this, he barely gets any exercise, so he’s a little bit overweight. The vet even advised me to help him lose some weight, otherwise, his weight problem would become a big issue when he’s older. Besides, he’s a big fan of ‘singing’. Every time I listen to the music in my room, he would sneak in and start to sing along. It’s not singing, it’s actually howling, which always cracks me up. He has done so many other stupid things, the list can go on and on, and I don’t think I have enough time to tell you all about it. Anyway, he’s really the most interesting animal I’ve ever seen. husky = a large strong dog with thick hair, used for pulling sledges across snow 另外,husky还有形容词的意思,在修饰男子的时候,表示该男子big, strong and sexually attractive,而不是形容该男子“傻得像二哈”哦… puppy = a young dog drag = to persuade somebody to come or go somewhere they do not really want to come or go to例如: I'm sorry to drag you all this way in the heat. The party was so good I couldn't drag myself away. He came in, dragging his three children behind him. sneak = to go somewhere secretly, trying to avoid being seen = creep例如: I sneaked up the stairs. Did you sneak into my room while I was asleep? sing along (with somebody / something)/ sing along (to something) = to sing together with somebody who is already singing or while a record, radio, or musical instrument is playing例如: Do sing along if you know the words. She loves singing along to the radio. crack somebody up = to make somebody laugh a lot例如: Gill's so funny, she just cracks me up.
雅思在听力语篇中,说话者会通过句子重音、逻辑重音、语调和语气等语音特征的变化来传递信息,例如,在一段对话中,如果某部分是说话人特别重读和强调的,而这部分也是雅思听力的设题重点;如果是升调的,那么这部分很可能成为雅思听力测试的一个陷阱,对此,建议考生通过大量的练习,来揣摩和适应英语语音的特点和规律,从而准确地获取答案的关键信息。
