今天我们来看一下雅思口语Part1部分Living Environment话题相关地道词汇和表述。
Garbage
1：Why do some people throw garbage on the street?
话不多说，我们来看个话题，Garbage，垃圾。也可以用rubbish或者litter。
其中，litter可以当动词，扔垃圾。也可以做名词，垃圾。
Throw Garbage，扔垃圾，我们也可以说Chuck rubbish;或者throw away some litter。这些我们都可以用在同义词替换中。
On the street也可以替换成on the ground，或者on the road。
关于人们都会在街上扔什么垃圾，我们可以说napkin(餐巾纸)，或者是plastic wrappings(塑料包装纸)。
Why do some people throw garbage on the street?
Well, I don’t really get it why some people chuck rubbish right on the road everywhere they go. Perhaps one of the explanations that might make sense to me is they can’t see a bin around, though I’m not sure if it’s the right thing to do. I mean at least I wouldn’t do a thing like that.
开头我们可以用Well。
I don't get it意思是“我也不知道/我也不理解...”。
one of the explanations可以替换为one of the reasons。
make sense to me意思是：
对我来说...是有道理的(reasonable)...;
是可以说服(convince)我的...
bin可以替换为rubbish can，垃圾箱。
Chuck rubbish
Plastic wrappings
Fail to understand
I reckon
not sure if it’s the right thing to do
2：How do you feel when you see people throw garbage on the street?
Well, most of the time, when I notice someone doing it, I would feel a bit pissed off, but to be fair, there’s nothing I can do really. In fact, I would probably just roll my eyes and pretend that I’m not really bothered.
most of the time 我们可以用usually。
pissed off可以理解为“不开心/生气”，或者说I would be in a bad mood。
to be fair，“老实说...”，可以用to be honest。
roll my eyes是“翻白眼"的意思，或者说give someone the evil eye。
I’m not really bothered 也可以说I can’t be asked/I can’t care less/I don’t care/I don’t seem to bother(care)。
