在雅思口语考试中拿高分最重要的就是要避免大众化,那避免大众化的最简单的方法就是尽可能摆脱中式思路的翻译,直接进入英文思维,那进入英文思维的捷径就是用外国人的方式说话,即多用老外的谚语。如中国人说,好酒不怕巷子深,如果外国人说成这样将给人一种感觉:这个老外的中文非常地道。我精心挑选了一些谚语,供大家参考,以达到雅思口语拿高分的目的。

A Bird In The Hand Is Worth Two In The Bush:

Having something that is certain is much better than taking a risk for more, because chances are you might lose everything.
