英语四级口语两人对话样题

A: Hey, Li Ming, have you ever had to use English to solve a real-life problem? I'm curious about how people handle such situations.

B: Yeah, actually, I did once. It was during my trip to Japan last summer. I needed to find a place to eat, but I didn't know any Japanese. So, I tried to use my English to ask a local for directions.

A: That sounds challenging. How did it go?

B: Well, the first person I asked was a shopkeeper. I said, Excuse me, could you tell me where is the nearest restaurant? He looked at me confusedly and then replied in Japanese. I realized I needed to try again.

A: Did you try to repeat your question?

B: Yes, but I was a bit embarrassed because I was repeating it with a Japanese accent. Then, I decided to try a different approach. I pointed to my map and said, I want to go to a restaurant, can you help me? It worked! The shopkeeper smiled and pointed me in the right direction.

A: That's impressive! So, you didn't just rely on words, right?

B: Exactly. I also used my body language to show him the map. It's amazing how useful body language can be, even when you're trying to communicate in a different language. In the end, I found a great restaurant, had a delicious meal, and even made a new friend who helped me with the bill.

A: Wow, that's a great story! It's really interesting to see how people can overcome language barriers through patience and creativity. It must have been a valuable experience for you.

B: Definitely. It taught me that even though language can be a barrier, it's not an insurmountable one. With a bit of effort and some help from others, you can find a way to communicate effectively. It was a fun and memorable trip, and I'm glad I had that experience.
