雅思口語Part 2:祖父的屋頂花園真漂亮!
本期節目話題背景
最近,有同學問了這樣一道題“Describe a person you know who loves to grow plants (e.g. vegetables/fruits/flowers etc.)”。聊到這個話題就不得不提到我的祖父了,他一直都很喜歡種植花草,退休后更是癡迷。我的祖父母住得離我很近,所以我每周至少要去看他們2到3次。他們有一個很大的老房子,房頂非常適合種植大量的植物和鮮花。他到底種了些什么?咱們一起來聊一聊吧~
我最喜歡在一個陽光明媚的日子里在屋頂上放松一下,再品著茶,周圍被這些美麗的植物和鮮花包圍著,這可太舒服啦!

本期節目話題參考文本
A person I know who loves to grow plants would have to be my grandfather, who’s turned his hobby into an obsession ever since he retired.
My grandparents live quite close to me, so I get to visit them at least 2 or 3 times a week. They have a big old house, which has a lovely rooftop area that’s very suitable for growing lots of plants, and flowers. My grandfather really does have green fingers, and seems to have a knack for growing just about everything under the sun.
Over the years, he has turned the rooftop area into a virtual paradise that looks like some sort of botanical garden. To be honest, I know almost nothing about plants, and don’t have a clue what the different names are. However, the one kind of flower I do recognize would be roses, and he grows a lot of beautiful roses, which look amazing when they bloom.
I love nothing more than chilling out on the rooftop on a nice sunny day, enjoying a cup of tea, surrounded by all of these beautiful plants and flowers. Sometimes I just sit and watch my grandfather fussing over the different plants like they are his babies, and seeing the great pride that he takes in taking care of them.
