雅思口语Part 1 高频题 | Crowded Place

今天我们要讲的雅思口语Part 1 高频难题就是“Crowded Place”。这道题大家会面对的个问题就是词汇，比如“拥挤”除了用“crowded”之外还有哪些选择？那么先给大家来补充一波单词：

1. Huddle [‘hʌd(ə)l] n. 拥挤

I don’t like noisy and huddle. 不喜欢嘈杂和拥挤。

2. Packed adj. 拥挤的，人多的

3. Rammed (英式) 拥挤的，人多的

4. Jam-packed adj. 拥挤不堪的其中，Jam也可以变成Jammed,用来表示“拥挤的”

6. Be packed in like sardines [sɑː’diːn] 拥挤的汉语里常用沙丁鱼罐头来形容“人挤人”的状况，在英语中，“是定语 Sardines”也有相同的含义。

We’re packed in like sardines.我们被挤得像沙丁鱼一样。

7. Burst at the seams 挤满

“Seam”指“衣服的缝合处”，因此“burst at the seams”形象地比喻了“某个场所像衣服就要被撑破了一样过于拥挤”。

It’s bursting at the seams.这里简直就是人满为患。

-phobia “对…的强烈恐惧或痛恨”

I suffer from demophobia. Rammed areas will always make me uncomfortable.我有人群恐惧症，所以在人多的地方我会很不舒服。

解决了单词之后，我们再来看一些观点。看一看大家对于Crowded Place都会有怎样的感受和想法。

01、I don’t like crowded places due to the reasons that I can’t move freely and when shopping, I have to fall in line (排长队) to pay the items.这个观点也让我想起之前清明节去南京玩的场景。因为我不喜欢人多的地方，所以当我次去到南京的小吃街的时候，我都惊呆了。你真的很难移动啊！！

A sea of people ！！适合于用来形容那时的画面。

02、I never liked crowded places because it's so stuffy (闷热的)  there, and I just want to yell "Hey, someone let me out of here!"有一个单词很值得我们去注意—Stuffy。

其实很多同学都会把“Stuffy”和“muggy”搞错，两个都表示闷热的意思。

“Muggy”则是指外面的天气闷热。

“Stuffy”形容室内的闷热，可能就是因为人多拥挤在一起而产生的闷热感。为此我觉得因为闷热而不喜欢一个公共场所也是一个很常见的理由。

03、It's OK if I'm around people I know, like family and friends, but I'm less likely to be surrounded by strangers. It's awkward in crowded places. I don't have enough space to move around and I find this makes it difficult to enjoy myself. 家里人或朋友在一起的时候，哪怕人再多其实你也不会觉得难受。但如果你被一群陌生人包围的时候，你就会觉得很不能享受自己的时光，毕竟会有这么多眼睛盯着你。

04、I don’t like crowded places because it is more likely that my pocket and my mobile phone will be stollen easily. For me, it is always a good idea to avoid crowds when traveling. 被偷东西又是拥挤的地方带来的常见现象, 这也成为很多人不愿意去人多的地方的原因。

05、I can’t stand being alone in my apartment, because it makes me feel depressed. I need to be around by crowds, as their voice, expressions and actions will give me a sense of belonging.虽然很多人都不喜欢人多的地方，但不能忽略的是有些人还真就喜欢热闹，毕竟和人呆在一起的时候才不会孤单。
