雅思口语 Part 1｜话题：Singing 唱歌

本期围绕 6 个高频问题，附核心表达 + 完整范例答案。

Q1. Do you like singing? Why?

核心表达

• grew up in a family where everyone was really into music｜成长在人人喜欢音乐的家庭里

• sing around the house all the time｜在家里随时哼歌唱歌

• comes naturally to me｜对我来说很自然、容易上手

• compliment my voice｜夸我的嗓音（compliment＝夸奖）

• enjoy it even more｜更加享受它

范例答案　Yeah, absolutely. I grew up in a family where everyone was really into music, so I am basically the kind of person who sings around the house all the time. I would say singing comes pretty naturally to me as well, and since people often compliment my voice, that naturally makes me enjoy it even more.

Q2. Have you ever learnt how to sing?

核心表达

• formal vocal training｜正式声乐训练

• in the school choir｜在学校合唱队

• basic breathing techniques｜基础呼吸技巧

• simple music theory｜简单乐理

• pick up the basics｜掌握基础（pick up＝学会、掌握）

范例答案　Not professionally, no. I have never had formal vocal training, but I was in the school choir back in primary school. Our teacher taught us some basic breathing techniques and simple music theory, which definitely helped me pick up the basics of singing.

Q3. Who do you want to sing for?

核心表达

• sing for myself whenever I feel like it｜想唱就唱，唱给自己听

• record songs on karaoke apps｜在唱歌软件上录歌

• post short singing clips on Douyin｜在抖音发唱歌短视频

• whoever happens to come across my videos online｜碰巧在网上刷到我视频的人

范例答案　Honestly, I usually just sing for myself whenever I feel like it, so I have never really thought about that before. Sometimes I record songs on karaoke apps like Quanmin K Ge, and every now and then I will post short singing clips on Douyin as well. So I guess, in a way, I am singing for whoever happens to come across my videos online.

Q4. Do you think singing can bring happiness to people?

核心表达

• let off steam｜释放压力

• take your mind off things｜暂时忘掉烦恼

• the atmosphere is contagious｜氛围很有感染力

• sing along｜跟唱

• hype each other up｜互相带动气氛（hype up＝调动情绪）

范例答案　Definitely. Singing is one of the best ways to let off steam and take your mind off things for a while. Especially when people go to KTV with friends, the atmosphere is usually contagious. Once everyone starts singing along and hyping each other up, it is almost impossible not to have a great time.

Q5. Do you like listening to others singing?

核心表达

• it really depends on how well the person sings｜取决于对方唱得怎么样

• sings in tune｜唱得准、不跑调

• enjoyable and even relaxing｜令人享受，甚至很放松

• constantly off key｜总是跑调

• more like torture than entertainment｜更像折磨而不是娱乐（entertainment＝娱乐）

范例答案　I think it really depends on how well the person sings. If someone has a good voice and sings in tune, then listening to them can be really enjoyable and even relaxing. But if they are constantly off key, especially when they sing loudly with lots of confidence, it can honestly feel more like torture than entertainment.

范例答案　Yeah, sort of. When I was in the school choir, our teacher gave us some basic vocal training classes. We learnt things like breathing techniques, pronunciation, and simple music theory. Even though it was not super professional, it definitely helped me develop a better sense of rhythm and control while singing.
