2024年10月雅思口语新题part2&3：描述你们国家重要的一条河流

　　Describe an important river/lake in your country.

　　You should say:

　　Where it is

　　How big/long it is

　　What it looks like

　　And explain why it is important

　　An important lake in my country is Qinghai Lake. Its’ actually the largest lake in China and it is located in Xining, well… outside Xining actually, in the hollow of the Tibetan plateau. It’s a very famous lake in my country. I know the lake fairly well because I am from that province, from a town not too far from the lake. I am not sure exactly how big the lake is, but I’d say it was about 3,000 or 4000km square. It’s massive! It’s really massive and pretty deep too. It looks pretty impressive to be honest. It’s an iconic symbol of the area, and it’s located in an area of stunning natural beauty. The lake is important for the area as it used to be the one and only real source of fresh water, a key fishing area, and a natural attraction. People in the villages nearby also believe the lake has a strong power… I guess you’d call it a lucky power. There are a lot of older, superstitious people in my town and they all seem to believe that the lake houses some powerful spirits or something like that. I’m not sure I believe that, but I can imagine that in the past many people told mysterious and magical stories about the place. For me, however, the lake is important for different reasons – it’s the first place I ever went fishing with my father, and also it’s the very first place I learned to swim!! With my uncle!! So, as well as being an incredibly important feature for the province and the surrounding towns and villages, it’s also got a special significance for me. Maybe the lake is enchanted, after all!

　　Part 3

　　1. How can rivers/lakes benefit local people?

　　Lakes have been incredibly important since the dawn of time. They have been a major source of water and of fish for people for centuries, millenia in fact. Today, they continue to be important for local communities for the same reasons, but tourism has taken off in the past few decades, and this offers a good source of revenue for the local community. Hotels have sprung up in towns and villages near large famous lakes, boat trips can be arranged, and walking tours and hikes nearby. These all bring fame and a certain amount of money to the local areas.

　　2. How do rivers/lakes affect local tourism?

　　The downside of the tourism that lakes attract is the damage to the environment. Especially in a country where there are so many people and tourist sites are inevitably packed with crowds – and often crowds that are not necessarily that respectful to the natural environment. So, although lakes have a huge effect on local tourism, attract thousands of people who want to see them, fish in them, go on boat trips on them, and bring great revenue to an area, the lakes and the area itself can be negatively impacted from an ecological standpoint, which is a shame.

　　3. Are rivers/lakes useful for transport?

　　Yes, of course – rivers mainly. There are a number of famous rivers in China which are all still used today for transporting goods and people from one place to another. Transport along rivers takes longer, but most certainly is a fairly common and reliable means of taking heavy loads from one place to another – especially through areas where the roads are bad or snaking through high mountain passes. Rivers provide a stable, reliable, if not slightly slow, means of transporting goods. And, of course, tourists – some tourists go on river cruises!
