中国的饮食文化源远流长，谈到饮食，我们应该有丰富的话题材料，可以滔滔不绝、侃侃而谈。但是 很可惜，因为缺乏相关的词汇和表达方法，不知道如何去描述一些中国特有的食物,很多考生在这个话题上 变得张口结舌；或者想当然地创造一些词汇，把考官谈得一头雾水。在描述婚礼的话题时，也因为词汇的 障碍，无法描述一些传统的风俗和文化。在准备这些具有较浓文化特征的话题时，考生首先应充分准备相 关词汇与表达法。另外，在一些较难的话题上，可以巧妙地换一个角度去描述，或者干脆尽量少涉及。毕 竟，我们很难在短短几分钟内让一个外国人完全了解明白一些他从来没有经历过或无法想象的东西。Rome wasn’t built in a day。文化的相互交流和理解需要一些时间，在考场上，我们就尽量化繁为简吧！
