雅思口语part 2 中有些话题比如描述图书馆，博物馆，旅游景点等等，考生常常觉得无从下手。这类卡片会牵涉很多专业词汇，考生容易说不出，或者说的很空洞，言之无物。在准备这些话题的时候，考生不妨参考一下剑桥1-8的听力原文，把听力中很多口语化的句子活学活用到雅思口语表达中。真正做到以听补说，以读补写。下面，以剑桥1test3section2的一篇讲述澳洲海洋博物馆的文章为例，看看，怎样用听力原文改编口语。
以下是听力原文，黑体字的地方是考生可以重点掌握的词句。
Good morning, everyone, and welcome to the Maritime Museum.
Now before we commence our tour I’d just like to tell you a little bit about the history of the museum. As you can see, it’s very modem building built in the post modern style and it was in fact opened by the Prime Minister of Australia in November 1991. It’s been designed with a nautical flavor in mind to remind US of our links with the sea. But the museum isn’t only housed in this building; there are a number of historic ships docked outside in the harbour ,which form part of the museum and which you are also free to visit, and we’ll be coming to them shortly.
I’d just like to point out one or two things of general interest while we’re here. Handicapped toilets are located on this floor and the door shows a wheelchair. The cloakroom where you can hang your coat or leave your bags is just behind us here. The education centre is on the top floor and there’s a good little library in there which you might like to use. Follow the signs to the Education Centre--you’11 see a lot of little green arrows on the wall. The green arrows will take you there. The information desk, marked with the small letter i on your plan is located right here in the foyer, so if you get separated from your friends, I suggest you make your way back to the information desk because we’11 be returning to this spot at the end of the tour. All right?
Now, if you look out this window you should be able to see where the museum’s ships are docked. If you want to go on a tour of the old ship, the Vampire, she’s docked over there and you should meet outside on the quay. However, a word of warning! I don’t recommend it for the grandmas and grandpas because there are lots of stairs to climb. Right, now, let’s move on. Oh, I almost forgot to give you the times for that tour. Now, tours of the Vampire run on the hour, every hour. All right?
