2017-08-31编辑: 环球教育整理来自: 互联网
雅思口语里“大公司”话题不算难,因为实在是有太多种选择了,但是它也难倒了一大票考生,因为雅思考试汇总关于“公司”,平时真的很少聊到,相应的语料素材积累也少的比较愁人,所以我们就来看看,能不能跳过所谓的专业术语和专有名词,来描述一下“大公司”:
The company I've always been interested in isthe Coca Cola Company. I was first attracted by theircreativity and innovation. I mean, theiradvertising campaigns could always amaze people. Ibecame fascinated by this company because of anadvertisement released several years ago, but after Igot to know more about this company, I just became a huge fan of Coca Cola.
I read from the Internet that this beverage is a result of a rookie mistake. When peoplewere developing this drink, an assistant put the wrong ingredient into the bottle by accident, but it turned out the wrong ingredient made the drink taste even better.
And during the World War Two, soldiers in the frontline all drank it, 'cause coke could be agreat pick-me-up that can reduce the feeling of fear and stress. So you see, it's a perfectsubstitute for cigarette and alcohol. That's how this soft drink became a necessity in thewar.
And as far as I know, it's the first kind of beverage that has been taken to the outer spaceby astronauts.
It's also a cultural symbol. For decades, the streamlined bottle and the red logo havenever changed. It's classic and recognizable.
Now it has become a multinational company and has got employees from all over the world. It has a great sense of responsibility towards society, 'cause I've seen so many public serviceads it produced. This company is active in charity work, so I guess that's why I always have agood impression of it.
其实上面的内容都不一定是真的,有些甚至是瞎编的,但是雅思考官不会care的… 如果你是学术严谨派,可以移步wikipedia,上面你可以找到类似The current formula of Coca-Cola remains a trade secret. 之类的facts,可以帮助你组织答案哦!
