2018年雅思口语范文赏析：Describe a hotel

　　一个描述宾馆的话题，“Describe a hotel”。

　　9 h is a new capsule hotel that offers luxury in a minimum living space. The first hotel opened in Kyoto; the building itself is 9 stories tall and hosts 125 capsules, locker rooms, showers, and a lounge. The 9h Capsule Hotel is named that because guests at the new 9h Hotel check in, take showers, sleep in a pod, refresh, and then leave, all within 9 hours.

　　同所有其他描述地点的题目一样，第一段的内容都是综述介绍情况。

　　Capsule hotels are almost symbolic of urban Japan, which provide guests a private sleeping area and communal amenities. While the concept has previously been utilized as a cheaper hotel option, the 9h capsule hotel adds luxury and refinement. The bed capsule will be made up with 4-star hotel sheets and provides a Panasonic system that uses light to naturally and comfortably wake you up.

　　First, leave your shoes in the shoebox, fill out the check-in card, get your locker key and sleep pod number, and then take the elevators to the locker room floor. Next, store your belongings in your locker and slip into 9H wear. Third, slide into your sleep pod for a rest. Then, after you are gently awakened by your pod, go back to the showers and locker room and revive yourself. Lastly, return your locker room key to the front desk and be on your way.

　　中间两段内容展开对这个hotel的描述，介绍其独特之处。

　　I love the space-age of the 9H Hotel but I honestly don't know how I'd feel about sleeping in one of the pods. I feel claustrophobic in a walk-in closet so I can only imagine how I'd react to a pod. Still, if you're looking at a hotel not for the amenities but as a place to sleep, this could be a great deal.

　　最后是简单的总结。

　　那么对于这类描述“小地方”的题目，提醒同学们要注意，需要重点描述的是为什么在这么多的图书馆、餐馆、博物馆、宾馆、建筑物中，你不选择其他作为描述对象，而偏偏选择这个，也就是说这个地点或描述对象本身具有较多的特征或特别之处，才值得一提，所以，在选择对象的时候，要注意一些special features。
