今天为大家带来英国雅思考官的高分口语范文，Part2题目是：Describe a recent event that made you happy.

You should say:

1.when and where it was

2.who was involved

3.what happened and explain why it made you happy.

答案：

1.When and where:

my friend's birthday party, last saturday evening, we went for a meal in an Italian restaurant.

2.Who: there were about 10 of us, he invited some close friends and work colleagues, most of them were people I've known since university.

3.What happened: we met at the restaurant, I gave my friend a present and a birthday card, we ordered some food, while we ate dinner everyone chatted, after the main course the waiter brought out a cake and we sang 'Happy Birthday', everyone went home quite late.

4.Why it made me happy: it was great to get together with old friends, I had some interesting conversations, it was a good opportunity to catch up with what my friends had been up to, it was a nice way to wind down after a hard week at work, the food was delicious, I went home feeling full after a fantastic meal.

学会换非正式的表达：

Some of the expressions I used were informal:

1.we chatted =talked

2.to get together with =meet

3.to catch up with =talk to someone you haven't seen for a while

4.what my friends had been up to -had been doing

5.to wind down =relax after something tiring

The examiner would consider these phrases to be "less common vocabulary". In other words, a few phrasal verbs or informal expressions can help you to get a high score in IELTS Speaking.
