雅思口语Part 2 A special cake you received from others 又是一个不太好讲的物品类题目。可能很多同学会不自觉地太过集中在意蛋糕本身的一些属性，如用材、口味、口感等，而忽略与这个蛋糕相关的情感联结和故事经历，最终整个题目说起来就比较无聊，想方设法凑字数而已。

这里给大家从网上收集整理了一篇这个题目的参考范文。大家可以着重学习如何将“物品类”的题目转为故事性较强的“事件/经历类”题目。蓝色阴影标注的是在口语中常用的一些衔接或填充词。

You know, cakes are often chosen as a birthday gift for people, and they’re pretty much the same all the time. However, there was one time that I received a birthday cake that was like no other. 【简单引入话题；如果觉得困难，也可以直接用I’d like to talk about …./I’m going to talk about…这种更简单直接的方式开头。】

be like no other 与其他的都不同

So here’s the story. Two years ago, it was some days before my 30th birthday. My bestie called me and invited me to dine out. Well, it’s a stylish restaurant that'd been viral on social media, so we waited for some time before seated. 【故事背景的简要介绍】

bestie 好朋友（通常是指女性，闺蜜）

viral 风靡的，火的

dine out 出去吃饭，外出就餐

At first, things were quite normal - I mean, we ordered food, we chit-chatted and we took photos of the place, something like that. Shortly later, about one hour or something, a waiter walked towards our table, holding something like the base for hotpot soup. Then, he placed the thing on our table and said to me, 'Dear customer, this is a custom-ordered gift for you!' Hearing this, I was a bit confused - why would Yoyo order me a package of hotpot condiments? Seeing me mystified, Yoyo said, ‘It's a cake! Try it! Your birthday is coming, but I will be on a business trip, so let’s celebrate your birthday in advance!'

chit-chat 闲聊

something like that 诸如此类，等等

the base for hotpot soup 火锅底料

custom-ordered 定制的，定做的

a package of hotpot condiments 一包火锅料

mystified 迷茫的，困惑的，不解的

in advance 提前

To be honest, the cake looked barely edible - though I have always been keen on spicy food. But seriously? A chilli cake? Not a chance! However, Yoyo kept egging me on. So finally, I tried a small bite of it warily. 'Oh! It’s not spicy at all! It’s chocolate-flavoured! It’s incredibly delicious! It was a cake shaped like hotpot condiments!' I burst into laughter. Then, we happily shared the cake and enjoyed the dinner hugely. 【感受描述，简单带过蛋糕的细节】

look barely edible 看上去几乎无法吃的

not a chance 不可能

egg me on 怂恿我

warily 谨慎地，小心翼翼地

chocolate-flavoured 巧克力味的

incredibly delicious 太好吃了，非常可口的

burst into laughter 放声大笑

There is no doubt that this cake is the most special one I have ever had. There is something special about the cake not just because it was like a hotpot broth base, but because it was something engraved with my bestie's love for me.【总结】

broth 汤

engraved with 刻有，嵌有
