雅思口语Part 2 《奇装异服的人》的重点在于“clothes”而非“person"（内附答案）
你怎么认为这最新一季的考题？奇葩？还是just so so? 不得不说从话题的定语部分来看，这一季度part 2话题会比之前的来的更具挑战性一些。不过在我看来，不管是多么具有挑战性的话题它都有破局的方式，拿今天的话题《奇装异服的人》来举例：
Describe a person who wears unusual clothes
You should say:
Who the person is
What the person’s unusual clothes look like
Why the person wears unusual clothes
And explain how you felt about the person
一旦涉及和服装相关的话题，很多同学都会认为这道题的整体难度系数就会上调，究其原因不过是“和衣服相关的词汇是你的知识盲区而已”。除此以外，过分的放大这个人也会加大你对这道题的思考。
为了更好的完成这道题目，首先你要注意，这道题的重点是在于“clothes”中的“appearance”而不是“person”，所以请先不要对号入座具体的某一个人，而是先拆分一件衣服的“appearance”再从对应的维度里制定可以有的思考。
衣服的外貌大致可以拆分成这6大块：
Size 大小
从大小来看，如果一个人喜欢穿超大款的衣服就可以是unusual的；如果一个人喜欢穿超小，超紧身的也是unusual的。
Color 颜色
从颜色来看，如果一个人喜欢穿的五彩斑斓的就可以是unusual；如果一个人就酷爱某一种颜色的衣服也可以是unusual的，但这种颜色肯定不会是黑白灰此类的保守色号。比如，有一个英国老奶奶酷爱绿色，所以她全身上下全是绿色，包括鞋子袜子。
Shape 形状
从形状来看，如果一个人喜欢穿一些非常规形状的就可以是unusual，比如：圆形/长方形/体型/爱心形/手型等。
Material 材料
从材料来看，如果一个人的衣服都是由非常规材料做成的话也可以是unusual，比如：塑料/钢板等。如果是塑料，也可提到它的透明性（transparency），这样也会让衣服变得更为大胆。
Decoration 装饰物
从装饰物来看，如果一个人的衣服上有各种怪异的东西也可以是unusual的，比如：蔡康永的衣服上会出现鹦鹉/乌鸦等玩偶；如果一个人的衣服经常对自己改造加了一些特殊的创意也可以是unusual的，比如：歌手黄龄，她总是喜欢将衣服剪出破洞变成自己喜欢的样子。
Style 风格
从风格来看，如果该衣服和现在普遍的服装不同风格也可以是unusual的，比如：洛丽塔风格，古风等。不过此角度我并不是特别推荐，因为汉服，洛丽塔服饰会是多数雅思考生的首选。
明确了“unusual clothes”的思考方向后，现在我们就可以逐一解答每个小问题的拓展方向。
01
Who the person is
有些同学可能会解决选择什么人物，但其实人物角色不受限，但受限的是在第一小问的角度拓展上。鉴于这道题有关“a person who wears unusual clothes”,我们在内容的拓展上需要尽可能的扣题以免答非所问。以下有这么几个角度可供参考：
Occupation
从职业来看，这个人的职业可以是和时尚搭边的，也可以没有任何联系性。如果你也打算从“occupation”着手来拓展第一小问，请注意你需要继续往下拆分出和“occupation”相关的角度来给出更多的细节内容。
Example one：
A person that comes to mind is my friend, Anna, who is also my classmate. Both of us are majoring in Finance, however, she is really into fashion, so during her free time, she does some modeling job.
Example two：
A person that comes to mind is my friend’s friend, Amanda. She is a famous stylist 造型师 in China and she works with many well-known celebrities in my country. Because of her job, she also has a great fashion sense and all her clothes are very unusual compared to mine.
Hobby
有些爱好和服装是有关系的，比如：做衣服或者看时尚杂志。为此，爱好也是一个不错的引导来开启一整篇话题。
Example one：
A person that comes to mind is my friend, Anna, who likes to wear unusual clothes. Actually, she is really good at sewing 缝制(衣物), so she designs and makes most of her own clothes.
Example two：
A person that comes to mind is my friend’s friend, Amanda. She is really fashionable and she loves reading fashion magazines. There are piles and piles 一堆堆的 of them in her room. She has been into fashion for over 10 years and clearly has a unique and classy 高大上的 sense of style.
Personality
喜欢穿奇装异服的人有着一颗躁动不安的心，他们往往喜欢追求刺激，尝试新鲜，感受未知。
Example ：
A person that comes to mind is my friend, Anna, who likes to wear unusual clothes. I have always thought she is a very unique person who likes to take risks. She likes to try new things and doesn't like to conform to "normality" 符合正常.
Age
年龄也是一个不错的拓展方向，尤其如果你想聊的是一个老人的话。我们可以在年龄的后面加上连词“but”, 这也就意味着这个老人有着和自身年龄不符的特性。
Example ：
A person that comes to mind is my neighbor, an old lady who is in her 80s. Even though she is a bit old, she doesn’t look her age 看起来不像她的年纪, as she wears trendy 潮流的, stylish 时髦的 clothes.
Home address
这个角度比较怪异，但却是我近期的最爱。一般而言，每个人都会有一个家庭住址，但有一类人却没有。为此，我喜欢从这个角度着手来阐述一个特殊的群体—流浪汉。其实流浪汉里真的有很多穿着奇特的人。
Example ：
A person that comes to mind is a homeless person. He used to sleep in a park next to my neighborhood. I never talk with him but from his appearance, I can tell he is approximately 40 years old. He drifts around 四处流浪 alone with his dog.
02
What the person's unusual clotheslooklike
针对此小问的解答，我们就需要用到之前已经拆分过的有关衣服“appearance”部分的内容。你可以挑选其中的1-2个点对其衣服进行阐述。
Example one：size+color
She has a very bold 大胆的 dressing style. She likes wearing ripped jeans 破洞牛仔裤 and all her tops 上衣 are very short, tight and sexy.
She is also into vibrant colors 鲜艳的颜色. She likes wearing clothes that clash 冲撞. I remember once she wore a red top with yellow overalls 工装裤 and green shoes. The colors really made her stand out and people on the street stared at her.
Example two：material+decoration
Her clothes are very unique because of the material she chooses. She doesn’t like normal material like cotton or silk, she prefers plastic and most of her clothes are made of it. Some of them are even transparent 透明的.
At the same time, she likes to choose things to decorate her clothes with, like a big Barbie on the back or zips 拉链 up and down 到处都是 the sleeves 袖子.
03
Why the person wears unusual clothes
不管你是否知道这个人为什么喜欢穿一些奇装异服，我们都可以从“unusual clothes”本身所具备的特性出发来回答这个问，而此类衣服带来的主要两点优势在于：
Make people stand out 脱颖而出
Show one’s personality 展现个性
这两点原因基本符合大多数弄潮儿的想法，除此之外，有些人穿的稀奇古怪可能并非自身真实的选择。比如：流浪汉可能是无奈之举，他没有衣服穿只好将所有他能穿的衣服都穿在身上。
Example ：
At first, I thought she likes to wear unusual clothes because she wants to stand out from the crowd, but after talking to her, I realized that her clothes do not represent her. She wears those clothes for her work. As a stylist, she has to meet and work with people in fashion so she needs to make a good impression.
04
How you feel about the person
因为“unusual”本身就是一个褒贬不一的单词，所以我们在回答最后一问时也就可以从正反两面进行作答。
你可能会认为这样的人很大胆是你学习的榜样，因为他们不为世俗眼光去追求自己喜欢的东西；你也可能认为他们的时尚太过头，在日常的生活里还是要回归平常才比较适合。
Example ：
I think she is a very brave person and also my role model. When you wear unusual clothes it is easy to get judged by the public, but she doesn’t care, she just ignores the comments and does what she wants to do. Because of this, she never feels depressed. Instead, she uses her clothes to show off her personality and she is proud of it.
Example ：
Actually, I am not really judgmental and I also know it is everyone’s freedom to choose what they want to wear, but I still think it is unsuitable to wear these type of clothes if you are not going to a fancy party. They are uncomfortable and draw people’s attention. To some extent, I don’t think it is a good thing to be too noticeable.
看完了以上4个小问的拆解后，现在你就可以来完成属于你自己的答案啦！
