【正文】 national Sports Competitions　　Why do you think many countries try hard to bee the host country for the Olympic Games?　　Why are certain countries especially prominent in certain sports at the Olympic Games?　　What effects do big international sporting events have on people?　　范文　　I love to play badminton especially in the summer time. It is a game I really enjoy, so play it whenever I can get a willing partner. It is a lot like tennis, but I can play badminton anywhere. I do not have to go to a tennis court to play and I can play in between classes without getting sweaty.　　Badminton is played with rackets that look a lot like tennis rackets, but they are much more delicate. You should have a net, which sits high above the ground, and a ball that is called a birdie. The birdie has a small rubber half a ball on one end, and it fans out with feathers on the other end to help it to fly. A badminton court has a net in the center that stretches from side to side. Each side of the net has a square that the team mates play in. It is ideal to play badminton with four people, but you can play one on one as well. You can also play without points or a net, but I do not think it is as much fun. 　　It is a game that takes a lot of energy so you get plenty of exercise playing badminton. The main reason I like the game is that everyone, man or woman, has an equal chance to pete. There are so many sports that require height or strength to be good。 it is refreshing to play one that I have an equal opportunity to win. Maybe that is why I get very petitive and energetic when I play. I love the game。 it is fun and rewarding, and I feel alive when playing.2012年雅思口語高分詞匯40組1. clothes，cloth，clothing clothes統(tǒng)指各種衣服，謂語動詞永遠是復(fù)數(shù)，cloth指布，為不可數(shù)名詞clothing 服裝的總稱，指一件衣服用a piece of，an article of2. incident，accident incident指小事件，accident指不幸的事故He was killed in the accident.3. amount，number amount后接不可數(shù)名詞，number后接可數(shù)名詞a number of students4. family，house，home home 家，包括住處和家人，house房子，住宅，family家庭成員。My family is a happy one.5. sound，voice，noise sound自然界各種各樣的聲音，voice人的嗓音，noise噪音I hate the loud noise outside.6. photo，picture，drawing photo用照相機拍攝的照片，picture可指相片，圖片，電影片，drawing畫的畫Let‘s go and see a good picture.7. vocabulary，word vocabulary詞匯，一個人擁有的單詞量，word具體的單詞He has a large vocabulary.8. population，people population人口，人數(shù)，people具體的人China has a large population.9. weather，climate weather一天內(nèi)具體的天氣狀況，climate長期的氣候狀況The climate here is not good for you.10. road，street，path，way road具體的公路，馬路，street街道，path小路，小徑，way道路，途徑take this road。in the street，show me the way to the museum.　11. course，subject course課程(可包括多門科目)，subject科目(具體的學(xué)科)a summer course12. custom，habit custom傳統(tǒng)風(fēng)俗，習(xí)俗，也可指生活習(xí)慣，后接to do，habit生活習(xí)慣，習(xí)慣成自然，后接of doing.
