雅思口语词汇- 谈论旅行 Talking about Travel and Vacations

Hi my name is Kara and in today IELTS speaking lesson video we are going to talk about holiday vacation places you've been to. Your examiner might ask you where have you gone on vacation before, or where will you go on vacation next.

嗨，我叫卡拉，在今天的雅思口语课视频中我们要谈论你度假时去过的地方。*可能会问你以前去过哪里度假，或接下来要去哪里度假。

So let's learn some phrases to talk about travel. Number one, on our list we have take a vacation or go on a vacation to somewhere.

我们来学习一些谈论旅行的短语。清单上的*个是去某地度假或休假。

They both mean the same thing, take a vacation or go on a vacation. You can use this phrase instead of travel, if you are saying travel too much in your response.

它们意思一样，度假或休假。你可以用这个短语来代替旅行，如果你在回答中使用了太多次旅行。

Take a vacation means that you stopped your work, or you stop your school to visit somewhere. So for example, if you are talking about the future, you can say I will take a vacation to Thailand, or I will go on a vacation to Thailand with my family next winter.

休假指的是你为了参观某地停止工作或不去上学。例如，如果你在谈论未来，你可以说我要到泰国度假，或者我明年冬天要和家人去泰国度假。

If you've already gone on the vacation, you can instead say, I took a vacation to Thailand, or I went on a vacation to Thailand. Both of these phrases work instead of travel.

如果你已经去度假了，你可以说，我去泰国度假了，或者我去泰国休假。这两个短语都可以代替旅行。

Okay, next on our list we have take a sightseeing tour of somewhere. This means that you hire a guide, hire a person to show you around an area.

好的，接下来在我们有，去某地进行观光游。这意味着你雇了一个导游，雇了一个人带你参观某地。

They take you to different places. Now notice here.

他们把你带到不同的地方。请注意这里。

They'll show you more than one place during a sightseeing tour. So for example, I could say, I took, before, a sightseeing tour of London.

他们会在观光旅游中带你参观不止一个地方。例如，我可以说我之前在伦敦进行了观光旅行。

We hired a guide and he showed us so many different places around London. Or for the future tense: I'll take a sightseeing tour of London when I go there next fall.

我们雇了一个导游，他向带我们去了伦敦的许多不同的地方。或者用将来时态：我明年秋天去伦敦的时候要观光旅行。

Sound good. Number three on our list, go sightseeing.

听起来不错。第三个是观光。

This just means that you see the sights. You go to interesting places.

这指的是你去看各个景点。你去一些有趣的地方。

Interesting places. Now to go sightseeing, you do not need to hire a guide, the way you do need to during a sightseeing tour.

有趣的地方。观光的时候你不需要雇导游，这是你在观光旅游中要做的。

So here, hire a guide. You don't need to do that when you go sightseeing.

所以这里，雇一个导游。你观光的时候不需要这么做。

You can do it by yourself. For example, when I went to London, I went sightseeing and I saw Big Ben.

你可以自己做。例如，当我去伦敦时，我去观光了，我看到了大本钟。

Sound good. Next, we have go on a cruise.

听起来不错。下一个是坐游轮。

When you go on a cruise, you are on a very big ship, a large boat. And you go from city to city to city while you are on the cruise.

坐游轮指的是你乘坐的是一艘大船。你坐游轮从一个城市到另一个城市。

So you could say, last winter, I went on a cruise in the Caribbean with my family. Or, next Christmas, I will go on a cruise with my family in the Caribbean.

所以你可以说，去年冬天我和家人坐游轮去了加勒比海。或者，明年圣诞我要和家人坐游轮去加勒比海。

Sound okay. Alright, next on our list we have signed up for a guided tour, or sign up for guided tours.

听起来还可以。好的，下一个是报名参加有导游的旅行。

Now, guided tours are a little different from sightseeing tours, because they're usually just in one place, in a small area. So here I will write one place.

有导游的旅行与观光游几乎没有什么不同，因为它们通常就在一个地方，在一个小区域。所以在这里我要写一个地方。

They are for a specific part of a city. Now sometimes they cost money, and sometimes they are free.

他们针对的是城市的某个部分。有时要花钱，有时是免费的。

So they may or may not cost money. And they're usually just in one place.

所以它们可能会花钱或可能不会。而且它们通常只在一个地方。

I could say, my family and I signed up for a guided tour of a castle in Germany. Or we will sign up for a guided tour when we visit Switzerland.

我可以说，我和我的家人报名参加了德国一个城堡地带跟团游览。或者当我们去瑞士旅行时，我们将报名参加带导游的游览。

So we see everything there is to see. Sound good.

所以我们在那里看到了一切。听起来不错。

OK, let's move on to next on our list. Come on package holiday.

好的，我们继续讲下一个。进行包价旅游。

This meets that all your expenses are together. Your travel, your accommodation, your food, your activities, everything you will need to pay for on vacation is all together in one price.

这意味着你所有的花费都算在一起。你的旅行，住宿，食物，活动，你需要在度假中支付的所有事项的钱都算在一个价钱里。

People like going on package holiday, because they don't need to worry about money during their vacation. So you could say, my family and I prefer to come on package holiday when we go on vacation, so we don't need to worry about money.

人们喜欢包价旅游，因为他们不必在度假期间担心钱的问题。所以你可以说，我的家人和我更喜欢在度假时进行包价旅游，这样我们就不必担心钱了。

OK, cool. Next on our list: travel during the offseason.

好的，不错。我们清单上的下一个：在淡季旅行。

Offseason is talking about the time of year when not a lot of people are traveling. So, not a lot of people traveling offseason.

淡季是指一年中没有多少人旅行的时候。所以淡季旅行的人不多。

Traveling during the offseason can be really nice, because it's usually cheaper and places aren't so crowded. For example, you could say, I went to the Coliseum during the offseason, so it wasn't too crowded and I got a lot of nice pictures.

在淡季旅行真的很不错，因为它通常更便宜，而且景点不会那么拥挤。例如，你可以说，我在淡季去了角斗场，所以那里不太拥挤，而且我拍了很多漂亮的照片。

Offseason changes it depends where you are in the world. But usually in the West, offseason is from November until March.

淡季会根据你在*上的位置而变化。但通常在西方淡季是从十一月到三月。

OK, so all it means is not a lot of people are traveling then. If you don't travel during the offseason, then it will be crowded and more expensive.

好的，所以这意味着那时没有很多人旅游。如果你不在淡季旅行，就会变得拥挤和昂贵。

You could tell your examiner, I wish I had traveled during the offseason, because when I went to the Coliseum, it was too crowded. Sound good.

你可以告诉*，我希望在淡季旅行，因为我去角斗场的时候太拥挤了。听起来不错。

All right, let's move on, to have the time of my life. Or you could also say the holiday of a lifetime.

好的，我们继续，度过人生中*愉快的时刻。或者你可以说人生*愉快的假期。

That means you went on the best trip ever. You went on a vacation so good.

这意味着你经历了有史以来*好的旅行。你度假很愉快。

You will never forget the wonderful time you had. So you could say, when I went to Jordan last year, I had the time of my life.

你将永远不会忘记度过的美好时光。所以你可以说，去年我去约旦的时候，我度过了人生中*愉快的时刻。

Or, I really really want to go to Egypt. I really think it would be the holiday of a lifetime, best trip ever.

或者，我真的很想去埃及。我真的认为那会是终身难忘的旅程，*棒的旅行。

Okay, now it's time to focus on words that describe tourist attraction, words to talk about the specific things you saw while you are on your vacation. So let's dive right in.

现在该专注于描述旅游景点的单词，谈论你在旅途中看到的特定事物的单词。我们进入主题吧。

First, we have scenic and scenery. These words are obviously related, but they're a little different.

让我们先潜水吧，我们有风景和风景。这些单词显然是相关的，但有些不同。

So let's take a look. Scenic is an adjective, adj.

所以我们来看看。风景优美的的形容词，adj。

That means you need to use it with a noun. So I might describe a scenic tour.

这意味着你需要将它与名词配合使用。例如，我可能会描述一次风景优美的旅行。

For example, I went on a scenic tour of the countryside in Switzerland. So you can see there I use it with a noun, scenic tour, scenic hike, scenic sightseeing, what have you.

例如，我在瑞士的乡村进行了一次风景优美的游览。所以你可以看到那里我将它与名词一起使用，风景优美的旅行，风景优美的远足，风景优美的观光，什么都行。

Whereas scenery is a noun. So I'll put n for noun.

而风景是一个名词。所以我要写一个 n 代表名词。

This you can talk about perhaps ocean scenery. Perhaps you could say the ocean scenery in the Philippines is so beautiful.

你可以谈论海洋风光。或者你可以说菲律宾的海洋风光是如此美丽。

Or the mountainous scenery in Switzerland is to die for, so beautiful to see. Next word that we have, see a breathtaking view of something.

或者瑞士的山峦风光让人如痴如醉，太美丽了。我们的下一个词是某物令人叹为观止的景象。

Breathtaking is when something is so amazing. It takes your breath away.

令人叹为观止指的是某物太美妙了。它使你无法呼吸。

So you stop breathing, because you're so excited. So breathtaking, takes your breath.

所以你停止呼吸，因为你太兴奋了。所以叹为观止，让你无法呼吸。

An example of this, I might use is for Petra. So I have been to Petra before.

我可能会用佩特拉古城来举例。所以我之前去过佩特拉古城。

So instead of saying see, I would say saw. I saw a breathtaking view of Petra while I was in Jordan.

所以我不说 see，我会说 saw。我在约旦的时候看到了佩特拉古城令人叹为观止的景象。

So think of amazing places you've seen that took your breath away and tell your examiner I saw a breathtaking view of this while I was on vacation. Next, we have sandy beach, or rocky beach.

所以想想你所见过的令人惊叹的地方并告诉你的*，我度假的时候看到了这里叹为观止的景象。下面，我们有沙滩或石滩。

So when you go to the beach by the ocean, look down at your feet. Is it sandy or is it rocky?

所以当你海边的海滩时，低头看着你的脚。是沙还是岩石？

An example of a place with the sandy beach might be Mexico. You could tell your examiner, I stayed at a beautiful white sandy beach while I was vacationing in Mexico.

有沙滩的地方可能是墨西哥。你可以告诉*，我在墨西哥度假时住在一个美丽的白色沙滩上。

Or we also have rocky beaches, lots of rocks, big boulders all around you. You might be more likely to see this at a lake, a freshwater lake.

或者我们也有石滩，你周围有很多石头，圆石。你更有可能在湖中，淡水湖中看到它。

So you could tell your examiner, I went on vacation to a rocky beach in a lake in Canada. Okay, next we have touristy or having hordes of tourists.

所以你可以告诉你的*，我去加拿大一个湖中的石滩度假了。好的，下一个是游客众多的的或有成群的游客。

That word might feel a little weird, so you can practice having hordes of tourists. Hordes means so much, so many tourists, too many people, too many people, too many tourists in one spot.

这个词可能会有点奇怪，所以你可以练习说有成群的游客。成群的意思是某个地方的游客太多，人太多了。

An example of a place that you might describe as touristy is the Coliseum. Right, people from all over the world are always going there to take a look.

角斗场就是你可能会形容为游客众多的一个例子。来自*各地的人总是去那里看看。

You could say I went to Rome and really enjoyed my time there, but the Colosseum was a little too touristy for me. You could also say, I went to the Colosseum, but it had hordes of tourists.

你可以说我去了罗马，在那里真的玩得很开心，但是角斗场的游客对我来说太多了。你还可以说，我去了角斗场，但是那里有成群的游客。

So it was difficult to take a nice picture there. And then last, we have not for the faint-hearted.

所以在那里很难拍一张好照片。*后我们有不适合胆小鬼的。

Faint-hearted means you are timid, shy. You get scared easily.

胆小鬼指的是你胆小害羞。你容易被吓到。

You don't like to take big risks. So this whole phrase not for the faint-hearted means you need to be brave to enjoy this site.

你不愿冒险。所以不适合胆小者这个短语意味着你需要勇敢才能享受这个景点。

An example of a famous site that might not be for the faint-hearted is the Catacombs. You could say, I went to the Catacombs while I was visiting Paris, but it is not for the faint-hearted because there are dead bodies everywhere.

一个可能不适合胆小的人的*景点的例子就是地下墓穴。你可以说，我游览巴黎的时候去了地下墓穴，但这不适合胆小的人，因为到处都有尸体。

Okay, last for today's lesson, we are going to talk about places to stay on holiday. Your examiner will ask you where do you usually like to stay when you go on vacation.

好的，今天课程的*后，我们要谈谈度假时待的地方。你的*会问你，你度假的时候通常喜欢住在哪里？

So we will go over different places to stay, and you can practice which response is best for you. Number one on our list, we have holiday resorts.

所以我们会待在不同的地方，你可以练习*适合你的回复。我们列出的*个是度假胜地。

These are the best places to eat, drink, sleep, and play. These are big places where you will not only go to bed at night, but you also have restaurants to eat, bars to drink.

这些是吃饭，喝酒，睡觉，玩耍的*佳场所。这些地方很大，在那里你不仅可以在晚上睡觉，而且你还可以在餐厅用餐，在酒吧喝酒。

And they usually will host activities where you can play with your friends and family. So if your examiner asks you, where do you usually like to stay on vacation, you could say, I always try to go to a holiday resort, because everything I want is taken care of right there.

他们通常会举办一些你可以和朋友和家人一起玩的活动。所以如果你的*问你，你度假的时候通常喜欢在哪里度假，你可以说，我总是尝试去度假胜地，因为在那里我想要的一切都有照应。

Sound good. Okay, let's move on to number two, self-catering apartments.

听起来不错。好的，我们继续第二个，自炊式公寓。

So catering is talking about getting food to you. Self is you.

所以餐饮指的是给你食物。自己指的是你。

Therefore, a self-catering apartment is somewhere you can cook for yourself. It doesn't have a restaurant like at a holiday resort.

因此，自炊式公寓指的是你可以给自己做饭的地方。像度假胜地那样的地方没有餐厅。

So you could perhaps tell your examiner, I prefer to stay at a self-catering apartment when I go on vacation, because I like cooking for myself and it is less expensive. Sound good.

所以你也许可以告诉你的*，我度假的时候更喜欢住自炊式公寓，因为我喜欢自己做饭，而且这样更便宜一些。听起来不错。

Okay, let's move on to number three. We have bed and breakfast.

好的，我们继续看第三个。我们有*住宿与早餐的旅馆。

As the name might suggest, this is a place where you can sleep. And in the morning, when you wake up, they will serve you breakfast.

正如名字所示，这是一个可以睡觉的地方。早晨起床时，他们会为你*早餐。

As the name also suggests, they don't give you lunch and dinner. So you have the opportunity to go to sleep, wake up, eat breakfast and then go out for your day.

还如名字所示，他们不给你*午餐和晚餐。所以你有机会睡觉、起床、吃早饭，然后出去吃一天。

So maybe you'll tell your examiner, I prefer to stay at bed-and-breakfast, because then I don't have to worry what I will eat in the morning, but I am free to go out on my own in the afternoon and evening. And then last, we have youth hostels.

所以也许你会告诉你的*，我更喜欢住在*住宿与早餐的旅馆，因为那样我就不必担心早上吃什么，但我下午和晚上可以自由地出行。*后，我们有青年旅馆。

You can also just say hostels if you prefer. These places are cheap.

如果你喜欢的话，也可以也只说旅馆。这些地方很便宜。

They don't cost a lot of money, but they're not the nicest accommodations while you are on vacation. They also usually have a shared space.

它们不会花很多钱，但是它们不是你度假时*好的住宿。它们通常也有一个共享的空间。

This means that you probably won't have a bed in your own room. You probably won't have your own bathroom.

这意味着你可能不会在自己的房间里有床。你可能不会有您自己的浴室。

A youth hostel shares these spaces, so you will sleep together. You will have a shared bathroom together.

青年旅舍会共享这些空间，因此你们会睡在一起。你们会有一个共用浴室。

And they are usually used by young people, because they are so cheap. So perhaps you could tell your examiner, when I was younger, I usually enjoyed going to youth hostels went on. . . when I went on vacation, because I didn't have a lot of money.

它们通常是由年轻人使用，因为它们如此便宜。所以也许你可以告诉你的*，我年轻时度假的时候通常喜欢去青年旅社，因为我没有很多钱。

But now that I'm older, I prefer to stay at bed-and-breakfast, because they are much nicer. Hi, I'm teacher Neil.

但是现在我年纪大一点，我更喜欢住在*住宿与早餐的旅馆，因为它们更好。嗨，我是尼尔老师。

Last week, teacher Cara was teaching you about travel and travel destinations. And this week, we will continue on with what she has already taught.

上周卡拉老师教了你们关于旅行和旅行目的地的内容。本周我们将继续介绍她教的内容。

And we will start with vocabulary to describe the places you want to travel to. So if you get asked, if you go on holiday or vacation, what kind of places do you like to go to, or what activities do you like to do, or where do you like to go when you travel, you can use these useful phrases to describe in detail what you really want to say.

我们将从描述你想要去旅行的地方的词汇开始讲。所以如果有人问你，如果你去度假，你喜欢去什么地方，或者你喜欢做什么活动，或者你旅行的时候喜欢去哪里，你可以使用这些有用的短语来详细描述你真正想说的话。

So let's start. Number one, somewhere off the beaten track, or untouched pristine nature, or pristine landscapes.

我们开始吧。*个，人迹罕至的地方或原始的自然或原始的风景。

So what that means is you go to someplace that many people don't usually go to. So these are uncommon places, uncommon places, or not the usual places.

所以这意味着你去的地方很多人通常不去。所以这些是不常见的地方，不常见的地方，或者不平常的地方。

So if someone asks you a question, you can say, you know, when I travel, I like to go somewhere off the beaten track. I don't want to go to where everyone else goes to.

所以如果有人问你问题，你可以说，你知道的，我旅行时喜欢去人迹罕至的地方。我不想去别人都去的地方。

You can also use the word untouched. Untouched means that not a lot of cities.

你也可以使用“untouched”一词。意思是没有很多城市。

You know, it is very natural, not a lot of human influence. Pristine also means it is very new.

你知道的，这里很自然，没有太多的人为影响。原始的也意味着它是非常新的。

It is unspoiled. It is untouched by human hands.

没有被破坏。它没有被人类触及。

It is still very natural. So you can use these two words to describe things like nature or a landscape.

它仍然很自然。因此你可以使用这两个词来形容自然或风景。

A landscape, of course, is the view of the nature. So you can say, when I like to travel, I like to go to untouched places.

当然，风景指的是自然的景象。所以你可以说，我喜欢旅行时去未经触及的地方。

I like to see pristine nature and I like to see beautiful landscapes, somewhere off the beaten track where I know there will not be a lot of tourists. Speaking of tourists, let's look at these words to describe some tourist places.

我喜欢看原始的自然，我喜欢看美丽的风景，人迹罕至的地方，我知道那里不会有很多游客。说到游客，我们看看这些描述旅游景点的词。

Tourist traps. Now of course if you don't know what a trap means, a trap means it will catch you and you can't get out.

热门景点。如果你不知道陷阱的含义，陷阱指的是它会吸引你，你无法离开。

So what a tourist trap means is it is a place that always attracts and catches the tourists and maybe they won't want to leave for a little while. So there will always be a lot of people because it is a big attraction.

所以热门景点的意思是这是一个总是吸引游客的地方，也许他们一会儿也不想离开。所以那里总是会有很多人，因为这是一个有很大的吸引力的地方。

So you can say, when I travel, I try to avoid the tourist traps, because I don't like to be surrounded by too many people. But that does not stop me from going to a tourist attraction.

所以你可以说，我旅行时尽量避免热门景点，因为我不喜欢被太多的人包围。但这并不能阻止我去旅游胜地。

An attraction of course the word attract means it will bring you to it. So you want to go and that includes words such as an iconic landmark.

圣地，当然吸引意味着它将你带过去。所以你想去那里，其中包括像标志性地标之类的词。

Iconic means very famous. So iconic landmark is something that when you open a travel book, it will say you have to go there.

标志性的意味着非常有名。所以标志性地标是当你打开旅行手册时，上面会说你必须去的地方。

It is a very famous place. So that will usually be a tourist attraction.

这是一个非常有名的地方。因此它通常会是一个旅游胜地。

Holiday destination, of course, means. . . destination means place. . . so it just means a holiday place. But usually when we use the word holiday destination, it is also a famous or popular place.

旅行目的地，当然，意味着......目的地表示某个地点，所以就是指度假的地方。但通常当我们使用度假胜地一词时，它也是一个有名的地方或受欢迎的地方。

So you can say, when I go on vacation, I like to go to famous holiday destinations. I like to see the tourist attractions and I always make sure to visit the iconic landmarks because I like to take pictures of them and show to my friends.

所以你可以说，我度假时喜欢去*的度假胜地。我喜欢看旅游景点，而且我总是*要参观标志性的地标，因为我喜欢为它们拍照并给我的朋友们看。

Moving on, local places of interest. So you will probably see this word in a travel book or in a travel guide.

继续，当地的名胜。所以你可能会在旅行书或旅行指南中看到这个词。

So when you want to go to a place, let's say to Spain, it will say local places of interests. Interest means interesting, of course, or places people would want to go to.

所以当你想去某个地方时，比如说在西班牙，它会说当地名胜。名胜指的是人们想要去的地方。

Local places of interest include the beach, the market, or the very popular iconic landmark. So you can say, when I go on vacation, I always make sure to look at the local places of interest like the iconic landmarks.

当地的名胜包括海滩、市场，或非常受欢迎的标志性地标。所以你可以说，我度假时总是*去看当地的名胜，例如标志性地标。

Moving on, metropolitan cities, metropolitan cities. Metropolitan means very big or very crowded, for example, Tokyo.

继续，大都市，大都市。大都会意味着很大或非常拥挤，例如东京。

Tokyo is a very famous metropolitan city. So you can say either I love metropolitan cities, I love the energy of big places and I like to meet people from all around the world, or you can say, I try to avoid metropolitan cities.

东京是非常有名的大都市。所以你可以说我爱大都市，我爱充满活力的大地方，我喜欢结识来自*各地的人，或者你可以说，我尽量避开大都市。

I prefer somewhere off the beaten track where I can see the untouched landscapes. Backpacking destinations, of course, means. . .

我更喜欢人迹罕至的地方，在那里我可以看到未受破坏的风景。背包旅行目的地当然指的是......

Destinations, we know, means a place. And backpacking is if you take all your things on a backpack and you go and move from place to place to place, it's not like you will stay in one hotel all the time.

我们知道，目的地指的是一个地方。背包旅行指的是你把所有的东西都放在背包里，然后从一个地方到另一个地方，你不会一直呆在一家旅馆里。

Backpacking usually means there will be a lot of traveling. So for example, if you go to Europe or Spain, you can say me and my wife, we like to go to many backpacking destinations.

背包旅行通常意味着会有很多趟旅行。例如，如果你去欧洲或西班牙，你可以说我和我的妻子，我们喜欢去很多背包旅行的目的地。

And we will go from hostel to hostel and just backpack everywhere and stay with new people and experience new things. Moving on, historic sites and heritage site.

我们从一个旅社到另一个旅社，到处背包旅行，与新朋友一起体验新事物。继续，历史遗迹和文物古迹。

So historic comes from the word history. So that will mean it is famous because of the history of the site.

历史的来源于历史这个词。闻名。所以这将意味着这个地方因其历史而有名。

The site means the place or the area. And heritage usually means that it is very important to the people's culture or their history.

地点指那个地方或地区。而遗迹通常是指这个地点对人们的文化或他们的历史非常重要。

So you can say, when I go traveling, I like to visit the historic sites and the heritage sites, because I like to learn more about the culture and learn more about the history of the people. And that is the end of our lesson on vocabulary of places that you would want to travel to.

所以你可以说，当我旅行时，我喜欢参观历史古迹和遗迹，因为我想更了解文化和那里的人的历史。这节关于你想要旅行的地方的词汇课就到此结束。
