经常有小烤鸭问：“Describe an item you bought but did not often use.”这道题是不是要讲一本参考书什么的，不然考官会不会扣分。

　　其实这个问题是不存在的，我们的雅思口语考试考的是英文表达能力，只要我们能把这个自己要说的内容表达清楚、真实，听起来才会最自然。相信每个小仙女或多或少都会买过神奇的口红色号，那么今天，我们就来教大家一起向考官描述这个经历吧!

　　Describe an item you bought but did not often use.

　　Actually, my friend is quite an impulsive customer that she would buy things randomly. For all those things that she has put away, there’s one lipstick she bought. It was just umm funny. She likes to collect lipsticks from different brands with different colors and usually she would prefer to wear nude or matte color. But one time, I don’t know what’s wrong with her. It was like the spur of the moment. She bought a girly Barbie pink color, cos the girl there highly-recommended it, so she thought maybe she could try something different for once in a while. It’s not too expensive, so she was like, ahh, I can give it a try.

　　But she regretted it the moment she brought it home, it’s really not her thing. She just left it on her dresser, and she never ever worn it again.

　　该话题关键词

　　1. put things away 把东西放在一边，搁置

　　2. highly-recommend 强烈推荐

　　3. give it a try 试一试，试一下

　　4. It’s not my thing. 不是我的菜，不是我的类型
