在這堂課裡，你會聽到兩個 model responses。

The first comes from Joseph, who talks about a personal moment of independence.

第一個是 Joseph 的，他分享了一個關於獨立的個人時刻。

The second is from Blondie, who describes a high energy fitness experience.

第二個是 Blondie 的，她描述了一個 high energy fitness experience。

After each response, I'll break it down so you can clearly see why it works.

聽完每個回答後，我會把它拆解開來，讓你清楚看到為什麼這樣說會有效。

An exciting activity that I tried for the first time was driving a car on a highway completely on my own.

我第一次嘗試的令人興奮的活動，是在高速公路上自己開車。

I did this about a year ago, shortly after I got my driving license.

我大概是在一年前做的，就在我拿到駕照後不久。

It took place on a busy highway just outside my city, which connects several suburbs and usually has heavy traffic, especially during the day.

這發生在我城市外的一個繁忙高速公路上，它連接了幾個郊區，而且通常交通量很大，尤其是在白天。

At the time, I had plenty of experience driving on quiet local roads, but

那時候，我在安靜的在地道路上開車經驗已經很充足了，但是

I had always avoided highways because of the high speed and the pressure of sharing the road with experienced drivers.

我一直都因為高速和跟經驗豐富的駕駛一起在路上開車而感到壓力，所以迴避高速公路。

Although I was alone in the car, my father played an important role in this experience because he he had spent weeks helping me practice and encouraged me to challenge myself when I felt ready.

雖然我一個人開車，但我的父親在這段經歷中扮演了重要的角色，因為他花了好幾個星期幫我練習，並鼓勵我在準備好時挑戰自己。

What made this experience so exciting was the intense mix of fear, responsibility and independence.

讓這次經歷如此令人興奮的是，恐懼、責任和獨立感強烈地混合在一起。

In the beginning, I was extremely nervous, constantly checking my mirrors and worrying about making mistakes.

一開始，我非常緊張，不斷地檢查後照鏡，擔心犯錯。

However, after a while I started to relax and feel more in control and I even began to enjoy the smooth flow of traffic.

然而，過了一會兒，我開始放鬆，感覺更能掌控，甚至開始享受順暢的車流。

By the time I reached my destination, I felt proud of myself because it marked a major step toward becoming more confident and independent as a young adult.

當我到達目的地時，我為自己感到驕傲，因為這標誌著我成為一個更自信、更獨立的年輕人邁出了重要一步。

That sense of achievement is what made the experience truly exciting and memorable for me.

那種成就感讓這次經歷對我來說真正令人興奮且難忘。

Joseph answers every part of the cue card very clearly.

Joseph 非常清楚地回答了題卡中的每一個部分。

Driving alone on a highway for the first time, he tells us when and where it happened about a year ago on a busy highway outside his city.

第一次獨自在高速公路上開車，他告訴我們大約在一年前，發生在他城市外一個繁忙的高速公路上。

Although he was alone in the car, his father's support and preparation played an important role.

雖然他獨自一人在車裡，但他父親的支持和準備扮演了重要的角色。

And finally, he clearly explains why it was exciting, focusing on the emotional shift from fear to confidence and independence.

最後，他清楚地解釋了為什麼這次經歷令人興奮，著重於從恐懼轉變為自信和獨立的情感轉變。

Joseph's response follows the structure set out in the cue card, which helps keep his answer clear and organized.

Joseph 的回答遵循了題卡設定的結構，這有助於保持他的回答清晰有條理。

Like any strong response, he addresses each required point directly, making it easy for the listener to understand what happened and why the experience mattered to him.

就像任何一個精彩的回答一樣，他直接處理了每一個要求點，讓聽眾很容易理解發生了什麼以及這次經歷對他為何如此重要。

Phrases like smooth flow of traffic show accurate topic specific language.

像「交通順暢」這樣的片語，顯示出準確的、與主題相關的用語。

The expression marked a major step toward is a sophisticated way to describe a life milestone, and

「標誌著一個重要的里程碑」這個說法，是一種精緻的方式來描述人生的重要階段，而且

describing his emotions as an intense mix of fear and responsibility adds depth and precision to his answer.

將他的情緒描述為「恐懼與責任的強烈混合」，為他的回答增添了深度和精確度。

These are exactly the kinds of phrases that help push a response into the higher bands.

這些正是能幫助一個回答進入更高分數等級的片語。

Now let's look at a very different kind of exciting first time experience.

現在，我們來看一個截然不同類型的令人興奮的初次體驗。

The exciting activity I tried for the first time was a high intensity interval training class on often referred to as hit.

我第一次嘗試的令人興奮的活動是高強度間歇訓練課程，通常稱為 HIIT。

I decided to challenge myself with this just last month at a boutique fitness studio located in the heart of the city.

我決定在上個月挑戰自己，在市中心一家精品健身房體驗。

It was a chilly Tuesday evening and the transition from the quiet, dark streets to the high energy, neon lit environment of the gym felt incredibly dramatic.

那是一個寒冷的星期二晚上，從寧靜、黑暗的街道轉變到健身房充滿活力、霓虹閃爍的環境，感覺非常戲劇化。

I attended the session with my cousin, a dedicated fitness enthusiast who had been nudging me for weeks to stop being a couch potato and experience the intensity of a group workout firsthand.

我和我的表弟一起參加了這次課程，他是一位熱情的健身愛好者，幾週來一直鼓勵我不要再當沙發馬鈴薯，親身體驗團體健身的強度。

The experience was exhilarating mainly because of the unique structure of the workout and the electric atmosphere in the studio.

這次的體驗之所以令人興奮，主要是因為訓練的獨特結構和工作室裡充滿活力的氣氛。

HIIT is a training method that involves short, explosive bursts of exercise followed by brief recovery periods.

HIIT 是一種訓練方法，包含短暫、爆發性的運動，接著是短暫的休息時間。

This constant fluctuation in heart rate creates a physical rush that is far more intense than a standard jog or gym session.

心率不斷的起伏會產生一種比一般慢跑或健身房訓練更強烈的生理衝動。

The combination of the pounding bass from the speakers, the synchronized movement of the group, and

音響裡震耳欲聾的低音、團體的同步動作，

the encouraging shouts from the instructor created a powerful sense of momentum.

以及教練鼓勵的吶喊，共同營造出一股強大的動能。

What really made it exciting was hitting a second wind during the final set of mountain climbers.

真正讓我感到興奮的是，在最後一組登山者運動時，我達到了第二次的體力高峰。

Pushing past my perceived physical limits gave me a massive surge of endorphins.

突破我自認為的體能極限，讓我湧現了大量的腦內啡。

Finishing the session alongside my cousin left me feeling completely spent, but

和我的表弟一起完成訓練，讓我感覺精疲力盡，

also triumphant, providing a sense of accomplishment that made the entire experience unforgettable.

但也充滿了勝利感，那種成就感讓整個體驗令人難忘。

Let's take a closer look at why it works so well.

我們來仔細看看為什麼這個回答這麼棒。

Blondie 清楚地介紹了這項活動。

Trying a HIIT workout class for the first time.

She tells us when and where it happened just last month at a boutique gym in the city.

她告訴我們時間和地點，就在上個月，在市區一家精品健身房。

She explains who she went with, her cousin who encouraged her to try it, and

她解釋了和誰一起去的，是鼓勵她嘗試的表弟，而且

she spends plenty of time explaining why it was exciting, focusing on the intensity of the workout, the atmosphere, and

她花了很多時間解釋為什麼這麼令人興奮，著重在運動的強度、氣氛，以及

Her answer is detailed, energetic and and very easy to visualize.

她的回答很詳細、充滿活力，而且非常容易想像。

Blondie also uses excellent idiomatic language.

The phrase couch potato adds personality and sounds very natural.

「couch potato」這個說法很有個性，聽起來也很自然。

Second wind is a perfect idiom for describing a sudden burst of energy, and

「second wind」是個很棒的慣用語，用來形容突然爆發的能量，而且

choosing triumphant instead of simply happy shows strong vocabulary control.

選擇用「triumphant」而不是單純的「happy」，展現了很強的詞彙掌控力。

These small choices make her response feel confident and fluent.

這些小細節讓她的回答聽起來自信又流暢。

So as you can see, an exciting activity can mean very different things to different people.

所以你看，令人興奮的活動對不同人來說，意義可能大不相同。

If neither of these examples feels right for you, that's completely fine.

如果這兩個例子都不太適合你，那完全沒關係。

Let's look at some other strong ideas you could use.

我們來看看其他你可以用的很棒的主意。

One strong option is to talk about the first time you traveled alone to a new place.

一個很棒的選擇是談談你第一次獨自去一個新地方旅行的經驗。

For example, you might describe taking a solo train trip to a nearby city.

例如，你可以描述一次獨自搭火車去附近城市的旅行。

You could explain when and where it happened, what it felt like to navigate stations and unfamiliar streets on your own, and

你可以解釋是什麼時候、在哪裡發生的，獨自穿梭在車站和陌生街道的感覺，以及

how exciting it was to make decisions independently without relying on anyone else.

能夠獨立做決定，不用依賴任何人，那有多麼令人興奮。

This type of story works particularly well because the excitement comes from a mix of uncertainty and freedom, and

這種故事特別管用，因為興奮感來自於不確定和自由的混合，而且

it allows you to describe a clear emotional shift from nervousness to confidence.

它能讓你描述從緊張到自信的明顯情緒轉變。

You could also choose an activity that involves learning a new physical skill, such as trying indoor rock climbing for the first time.

你也可以選擇一項涉及學習新體能技能的活動，例如第一次嘗試室內攀巖。

In this case, you could describe walking into the climbing gym, putting on safety equipment, and

在這種情況下，你可以描述走進攀巖館，穿上安全裝備，以及

feeling intimidated by the height of the walls.

The excitement naturally comes from the physical challenge itself your racing heart, shaky hands, and

興奮感自然來自於體能挑戰本身，你狂跳的心臟、顫抖的手，以及

the adrenaline rush as you push yourself to reach the top.

當你努力往上爬以到達頂端時的腎上腺素激增。

Finishing the climb for the first time gives you a clear ending to the story and a strong sense of achievement.

第一次完成攀爬，為故事提供了一個清晰的結局和強烈的成就感。

Another relatable option is to describe the first time you cooked a complicated meal entirely on your own.

另一個有共鳴的選擇是描述你第一次完全靠自己煮一頓複雜的餐點。

For instance, you might talk about attempting a full dinner with multiple dishes rather than a simple recipe.

舉個例子，你可能會談論嘗試做一道有多道菜的完整晚餐，而不是一道簡單的食譜。

You could explain when and where this happened, who you were cooking for, and

你可以解釋這件事發生在何時何地，你當時是為誰煮飯，以及

why it felt exciting to manage everything at once, from timing the dishes to adjusting flavors.

為什麼同時處理所有事情，從菜餚的時機掌握到口味的調整，會讓你感到興奮。

The excitement comes from the pressure of not wanting to fail, combined with the satisfaction of seeing everything come together successfully at the end.

興奮感來自於不想失敗的壓力，再加上最後看到一切順利完成的滿足感。

Finally, you might talk about trying an organized group activity for the first time, such as joining a dance class or a group cycling session.

最後，你可能會談論第一次嘗試有組織的團體活動，像是參加舞蹈課或團體自行車騎行。

You could describe arriving at the venue, feeling slightly awkward among strangers and struggling to keep up at first.

你可以描述抵達場地時，在陌生人群中感到有點尷尬，一開始還跟不太上。

As the class progresses, the shared energy of the group and encouragement from the instructor often transform that initial discomfort into excitement and enjoyment.

隨著課程進行，團體共享的能量和教練的鼓勵，常常能將最初的不安轉化為興奮和享受。

This type of experience works well because it combines social interaction, physical movement, and a clear emotional journey.

這種體驗之所以奏效，是因為它結合了社交互動、身體運動和清晰的情緒旅程。

Ultimately, an exciting activity doesn't have to be extreme or dramatic.

最終，一項令人興奮的活動不一定要很極端或戲劇化。

What matters is that it was meaningful to you and that you experienced it for the first time.

重要的是它對你來說有意義，而且是你第一次體驗的。

If you clearly describe what happened and how your feelings changed, you'll have a strong and convincing answer.

如果你清楚描述發生了什麼事，以及你的感受如何變化，你的回答就會很有力且令人信服。
