雅思口语范文：想买的东西

　　想买的东西 and 礼物 当做同一个话题讲解

　　Talking about something I want to buy, there is nothing else but a book about vocabulary. You may think it is awkward, but it is true. I do hope that I can buy a book named the origin of English words.

　　I heard of the book from a TV program, which shares the interests of learning English. Because many students have difficulties in remembering the words, which is the basis of learning enlgish, as you know. Someone recommended a book named the origin of English words. It is published by beijing university press early in this May. The writer is a teacher in Beijing, who has studied in Sydney for many years, and has a long teaching experience. In his book, he writes some words in sequences. Whats different is that almost every word in the book has a story. For example, academywhich is a difficult word to remember. But he tells the story of the word. It used to be a name a place, where Plato, a philosopher, once travelled and set up a study center there. From that time on , academy means a place of study in some special field.

　　I am simply interested in the story and the culture behind the words. I think the way the book suggested is really good for remembering vocabulary.

　　I searched many bookstores in Changsha ,but I havent found it so far, but I am still looking for it. I wish I can get it quickly.
