Do you like reading books? What type of books do you prefer to read? When do you usually read books?
IELTS Speaking 关于阅读、看书的话题是常考的话题，一遇到这个话题，考生要么暗自窃喜，因为有备而来，都知道是常考的题目了，如果还不准备，那真是送分你都没法接着；而有些人心里咯噔一下，没准备呀，结果就只剩下拍大腿扼腕叹息的份了。今天，咱们就把这个话题好好分解一下。
首先，爱书如命之人，英文有哪些方式来表达？
Be caught with your nose in a good book 看到一本好书就爱不释手、读得欲罢不能。
An eager reader 爱读书的人
A book worm 书虫
a book devotee 爱书之人
a book nerd 爱读书的人
有心人不妨把下面这段熟读、背诵：
Are you always caught with your nose in a good book? Do you feel close enough to fictional characters that you consider them your friends?
Well, chances are you’re an eager reader. We don’t blame you. Books are often how we learn new words and understand how to apply them in everyday conversations.
Sometimes, we read so many new words (and don’t hear them spoken) that we tend to mispronounce them too. How did you pronounce Hermione when you read it in your head? No judgment. We were shocked when we saw the movie too.
Pronunciations aside, we rounded up some of the best bookworm words to use for describing your nerdiness or your love of literature or both. Have you used any of them before?
接下来就是一些展示词汇量的单词了， 反正口语最多就考14分钟，还是抓紧时间孔雀开屏般展示你的词汇量，把空缺转身的展示的部分降到最低。
Colophon [ˈkɒləfən]
If you’re truly crazy about books, no page is left unturned when you read, including the author section, acknowledgments, and even the title page. That’s where you find the colophon: a publisher’s or printer’s distinctive emblem, used as an identifying device on its books and other works. n.(印在书上的)出版社名称(或标志)
bibliotaph
We all have our vices. But, if you are a bibliotaph, or “book hoarder,” maybe your obsession isn’t so bad. It just means you’re so into reading that you stow away tons of books wherever you can: your closet, the stove, under your bed, under your dog’s bed. Anywhere to keep them safe or you know, keep your dirty little secret safe.n.收藏图书的人
fascicle ['fæsɪkl]
While some readers thrive on an 800-pager that will keep them busy for, oh, say, just a few long nights, others prefer something on the smaller scale. A fascicle, published installments or sections of a book, provides the perfect amount to read in a short amount of time. A great example is Emily Dickinson’s Fascicles, which include over 800 of her poems across forty different booklets. n.分册
logophile
Sure, you’re a certified book devotee, but are you also a logophile? Well, if you like to read, then you most likely enjoy the words behind the story. And if that’s the case, you can be sure to add the term logophile to your résumé, because that means you are a serious word enthusiast—a “word lover.” 爱好词语的人
sesquipedalian [seskwɪpɪ'deɪlɪən]
Sometimes being long-winded isn’t a good thing. No one wants to listen to an overly long (and boring) speech, but using long words (especially when they are perfect for what’s being communicated) isn’t always a bad thing. Sesquipedalian means “given to using long words”; it can also characterize a very long word.多音节的词
bibliophile [ˈbɪbliəfaɪl]
If you’re a bibliophile, you’re a “lover of books,” especially a collector of fine, beautifully made books. Bibliophiles pay close attention to the whole package, from a book’s spine to the quality of paper the words are printed on. 爱书的人，藏书者
bookish [ˈbʊkɪʃ]
When you spend an inordinate amount of time thinking about fictional characters (and the many plot twists that come their way), you can definitely classify yourself as bookish. Curling up with a good book over the weekend sounds much better than drinks at a new club—and that’s because you’re devoted to those pages like any true book nerd should be! adj.书呆子气的、爱读书的
