　　1.What you waited for

　　第 一小问是介绍你等待的事情。我们可以概括性的说这件事情是什么，然后引用一些语气词衔接到下一问，对整个事件进行描述。

　　example：

　　Well, this topic reminds me of my trip to Northern Europe with my best friends several years ago. During the trip, one of my friend, Jing , has an yearning for aurora, so we decided to wait for it in a small town in Iceland no matter how long it would took us.

　　2.Where you waited

　　第二小问是阐述你在哪里等待的，这里就不用像地点类的话题一样，进行地理位置详细的描述，可以说一座城市，一个标志性的建筑，或者一个场所等等。

　　example：

　　Well, I’m actually living alone because of work and my hometown is 500 miles away from the place where I’m currently living.

　　3.Why it was special

　　第三小问问的是为什么是特殊的，整体来说是因为某一些因素让它变得特殊，例如等待注射新冠疫苗特殊，因为它为了保障我的安全，同时响应国家的号召，排队时间非常久等等，都是让它成为特殊事情的原因。

　　example：

　　I think it was special to me because I never got to see it before, not to mention seeing it with my best friends. In fact, most people do not have the chance for a lifetime and I would probably cannot have a second chance either.

　　4.And explain how you felt while you were waiting

　　最后一小问解释一下你在等待时候的感受，这种感受可以是激动的急切的，也可以是平静的但期待的，在结尾的时候描述一下事情的结果以及自己的内心收获。

　　example：

　　We made so many quixotic wishes which never came true during the next several years, but this shared experience warms me every time I think of it.

　　下面是新航道雅思培训班小编挑选的高分口语答案，主题是等待接种新冠疫苗，一起来看看吧。

　　参考答案

　　外教答案

　　Something special l waited for that would happen was a vaccination against the covid.

　　You know, there’s a pandemic prevention and control work in China, which l think is the strictest one in this world. To get back from another city to visit my grandpa in the hospital in my hometown,I was required to get vaccinated. Otherwise,there was no possibility to visit him in the ICU even if l finish my fourteen days quarantine at home.

　　As there was an escalating demand for the vaccine in our hometown,/ had to book an appointment with the hospital and wait for their call at home before lining there to get injected. This article is from Laokaoya website. l knew it would take at least three days for them to arrange everything and that l had no other alternatives. So, l was quite patient and knew they would pull me through.

　　Well l think the most important reason why the waiting was quite special was that it was probably the first time in my lifeto wait for vaccination to be allowed to visit my family. I guess that was also a once-in-a-century thing to happen.

　　Honestly, l felt a bit nervous while waiting for this shot because l’ ve seen some news on the Internet that vaccine recipients might have severe adverse effects. But, as l said,/ had no choice but to do it and l actually ended up having no such things.

　　中文思路

　　—次我等待的特殊事情就是等待接种新冠疫苗。

　　中国有疫情管控的工作，而且我觉得还是全世界最严格的。为了能够从另外一个城市赶回家乡看望在医院的爷爷，我被要求要打疫苗。不然的话，即便是我在家里隔离了十四天也是无法进入ICU病房看望他的。

　　由于当时我们家乡的疫苗需求激增，我得等先跟医院那边进行预约然后等待他们的安排，最后去排队进行注射。我当时也明白我起码得等上三天好让医院安排好一切并且没有其他替代方法。所以，我当时挺耐心的，也知道他们能够帮助到我。

　　我觉得这次等待很特殊的原因就是这大概是我人生里第 一次为了看望亲人来等待疫苗注射。这恐怕也是百年一遇的事情了。

　　老实说，我当时等待接种的时候有些许胆怯。因为，我看了新闻，接种者可能会产生不良反应。但是，正如我之前说的，我没有其它选择只能去打。最后，我发现也没有什么不适的情况。
