思路分析
看到题目我们首先进行思维发散,把能想起来的喊出来名字的植物全部列举出来,很多同学的思维受限是因为看到题面上的important被吓到,认为只有竹子一类的才能在中国被称得上重要,但是我们如果仔细想想,其实很多植物都符合要求的,比如康乃馨-中国人注重孝道,康乃馨是对妈妈表达爱意的花;比如牡丹花,在中国洛阳是都城的时候,牡丹一直是中国的国花;再比如含羞草,在注重内敛的中国文化中,含羞草经常被比喻成娇羞的女孩子,实在不行了就说玫瑰花,中国的年轻人到了情人节也会用它来表示爱意。重要不代表需要是在中国独一无二的。
第二点描述你如何知道,这个一般有几种情况,小时候在书上看到的,小学学过的,电视上看到的,公园里见到爸爸跟你说的等等注意需要把整个经历完整摊开来讲,越详细越好,考官不喜欢听笼统的答案,另外细节多了听起来也比较真实,注意描述经历时的时态。
第三点介绍为何重要,这个时候只要讲中国人在什么场合会用到这种植物,或者这种植物和中国文化之间的关系就可以啦。
第四点介绍个人感受+原因即可。
