雅思口语P2｜8分素材之在学校做的手工

01雅思口语Part2话题

And how you felt about it

02话题分析

这是一道事件类话题新题目，难度并不是很大但是同学们需要仔细审题，题目要求是在学校内做的手工活动。所以同学们可以先回忆一下自己比较喜欢的手工艺术品进行描述。

对于有手工经验的同学就可以选择说自己做手工的一次经验。但是如果没有实际经验的同学就需要发挥一下想象力，可以说较为常见的在学校美术课上剪纸、做陶艺、绘画等活动，又或是当下非常流行的自制香薰蜡烛、自制弹弓、自制椅子等等，只需要同学们灵活的将制作地点改成学校即可。

第 一小问“What you made”做了什么

明确的说明自己所做的东西，可以补充说明和谁一起做的、难度如何、当时做的契机是什么。

第二小问“How you made it”怎么做的

这一小问可以作为这道题目的主要叙述点，需要描述制作的主要步骤，同时要描述所用到的工具等。

第三小问“What it looked like"外形是怎么样的

同学们也可以将描述重点放在这一小问。可以对外形进行较为详细的描述并且描述其功能。

第四小问“And how you felt about it”你的感受如何

描述感受的时候可以从两方面切入，其一是描述对这件手工艺品的感受；然后可以表达自己对这次活动的感受如有强烈的成就感、了解了中国剪纸艺术、收获了手工的快乐等等。

下面是关于这个话题可以延伸出来的思维图：

03答案示例

此篇是以为流浪动物做窝为例：

When it comes to an art or craft activity that I had at school, I’d like to talk about a thing that I did as a young elementary school student.

Back then, my school often organized lots of extracurricular activities to help us learn something out of books. There was an activity to help homeless cats near our district and we were all excited to participate in. As a prerequisite for attending this activity, we were required to build a paperboard house for those cats. So our teacher in art class led us to accomplish this meaningful task.In order to make this “house”, I used some hard cardboard, some magnet papers, a hole puncher, and a couple of heavy binding cords.

For starters, I cut strong cardboard into two sheets in the same size, and I cut as many sheets of magnet papers as I wanted to the same dimensions. Then, I just attached those magnet papers withthe cardboard in order to stack them in a layer on top of another. After that, I punched two holes along one side of the stacked layers in order to tie them together with the cord binders by threading through the punched holes. In the end, I painted the house into pink as I thought it would attract cats to come in.

Anyway, I felt really great about this particular art and craft activity as I could actually see the result of my hard work with my own eyes. Besides, this special activity also allowed me to share some good laughs and quality time with some of my other fellow students. On top of that, I could contribute something to those homeless cats, which was really meaningful and it could often remind me ofcherishing those little lives.
