雅思词汇:食物与农业

食物与农业把个人习惯和全球议题联系在一起,所以在雅思中很常见。口语 Part 1 可能问你平时吃什么、喜不喜欢做饭;写作 Task 2 则可能涉及快餐、vegetarian 饮食、世界 hunger 问题,或 genetically modified 作物的使用。好的回答能在厨房和农田之间自如切换。

本词组整理了关于生产、购买和食用食物的词汇。农业:agriculture、agricultural、farm、farmer、farming、crop、harvest、cultivate、livestock、cattle、grain、wheat、rice、irrigation、fertiliser、soil。注意英式拼写 fertiliser;produce 作名词时指新鲜农产品,如 local produce(重音在第一个音节)。

食物与饮食:ingredient、recipe、meal、snack、protein、fat、sugar、beverage,以及 vegetarian 和 vegan。vegetarian 不吃肉,vegan 不食用任何动物制品,这个区别值得用准。processed 食品是常见作文话题:"Processed food is cheap and convenient, but it often contains too much sugar and fat."

全球议题需要 hunger、famine、supermarket,有关科技的讨论则用 genetically modified:"Genetically modified crops could reduce hunger, but some people worry about their long-term effects." restaurant 和 fast food 则补全了现代饮食习惯的图景。

食物话题也很适合练习因果表达。例如:"Because farmers use more fertiliser, harvests have grown, but soil quality has declined in some regions." 用 because、so、but 把两三个话题词连接起来,就能写出高分段需要的完整、有逻辑的长句。

每天进行简短练习:今天遇到的词明天隔夜复习,随着熟悉程度间隔逐渐拉长。每次学完,描述一道你家乡的传统菜,列出配料并说明做法,使用本词组的单词。
