发现了一个高频规律，一般而言，只要当季话题里包含有"名人"的话题，它90%以上就会成为高频话题，并且成为排名第一的高频话题。你看，从目前的高频排名来看，它已经呆在第一的位置很久了。
有些同学或许会觉得奇怪，这个高频是怎么来的？为什么高频就一定是准的呢？
首先，我们按高频准备话题在某种程度上是一种"赌徒"的心态，毕竟只准备高频的前20-30无法完全性的保证你一定就会考到这道题，但你会有极大的可能性就抽到其中的一道题目。
高频考题为什么就有参考价值？
之所以高频考题会有一定的参考价值，也是因为考官对话题有一定的偏向性。就跟你有一堆各种口味的棒棒糖，你可能特别喜欢草莓味和葡萄味，所以之后就会选择这几种味道多一点。
除此之外，考官也会对话题有一定的预判，如果他觉得这道题没有太大的意义，或者太有难度，他就不太会选择这道题来考你。为此，从目前的高频排名来看，排名靠前的话题的确相对而言是比较适合学生的题目。
为此，尤其4月要考试的同学一定要抓住换题前的机会好好准备，有效准备，拿下考试。
说了这么多，现在我们就来进入今天的正题--《感兴趣的名人》。
Describe a famous person you are interested in
You should say:
Who the person is
How you know about the person
What the person was like before he/she became famous
And why you are interested in the person
这道题其实是当季人物类话题里最简单的一道题目，因为它并没有像《礼貌的人》、《奇装异服的人》有着非常具体的定语部分。即便如此，很多同学还是会觉得难。同时，还有人会纠结于我到底可以说哪些名人，感觉自己认识的不多？
除此之外，因为新疆棉花而让我重新认识的陈冠希也是一个不错的人选，在接下去的讲解中，我也会拿他举例来拓展每一个小问题。
如果你无所谓内容的真实性，那不如就根据人物类的维度来塑造一个人物。反正最终你所讲的真实与否，维度都是最为核心的要点。
和“People”相关的维度包括：hobby/ occupation/ personality/ appearance/ how you know (about)/ age/ life experience/ relationship/ where from (home address/ nationality/ hometown)/ education background/ family background/ social status/ marital status/ social network/ zodiac sign/ wealth/ sexuality/ habit/ language/ health/ popularity/ achievement/ name/ gender/ contact/ outlook etc.
明确以上的信息点后，我们将开启整道题的分析。
01
Who the person is
针对第一问的拓展，我们有很多的选择性，比如：工作/ 外貌/ 受欢迎程度/ 爱好/ 健康/婚姻状况/性取向等。需要注意的是，性格这个维度尽量不要在第一小问中提及，毕竟第三小问会需要涉及这一部分的内容。
Example one：Occupation 职业
提及一个人的职业，我们可以按"主次"或"时间线"对其进行拓展。按主次来看，我们可以聊一聊他目前的主要身份，以及他另带的其它身份；按时间线来看，我们可以从他过去的职业聊到现在的工作，同时别忘了阐述其职业转变的原因。
A famous person that comes to mind is Edison Chen who used to be a famous actor and musician in China, but after a nude picture scandal 艳照门, he quit his work in show biz 娱乐圈 to focus on fashion design. He created his own fashion brand called “CLOT” which is really popular among young people.
Example two：Popularity 受欢迎程度
提及受欢迎程度，我们可以阐述他为什么受欢迎以及怎样的受欢迎。
A famous person that comes to mind is Taylor Swift who is a well-known musician. Her beautiful voice and great talent for music helped her rise to stardom 一夜成名. Now she has millions of followers online and I am also one of her die-hard fans 死忠粉.
Example three：Health 健康情况
健康状况是很少被提及的一个维度，但它却又非常现实。这个维度可以体现出一个人的坚强，也可以体现出一个人独有的天赋。，比如：比莉·艾利什(Billie Eilish) 她身患莱姆病，但她非常坚强；霍金身患渐冻症，但上帝关上一扇门，推开一扇窗，他被赋予了超高的智商。
Actually there are so many famous people that I am interested in, but today I really want to describe one of my favorite musicians called Billie Eilish. She is a talented singer. She is also a very strong-minded person. Even though she suffers from Lyme disease 莱姆病, she keeps working and never lets it stop her from doing what she wants to do.
02
How you know about the person
这道题的讲解已经不下数次了，它的解题格式为【认知过程-目前结果】。按我们之前所讲的三步走，我们可以这样来分析：
step one：你第一次听说或者接触到这个人是什么时候/通过谁/或者从那里知道的；
step two：第一次了解后给你的感受如何？好的感受还是不好的感受？
step three：最后你是如何进一步去了解这个人，最终成为他的粉丝或者成为那个对他有兴趣的人。
Example ：
I have known about him since I was young. His striking good looks helped him win lots of followers and I was one of them. Even though hearing about his scandal was disappointing, I continued to follow him as I love his style and creativity. He has a vision like no other designer I have seen before.
03
What the person was like before being famous
第三问需要我们描述的是这个人的性格，但特指成名前的性格。有同学会说，我不知道他成名前的性格怎么办？没有关系，我们可以通过一个人来告诉你。可以是他自己在访谈上提及过往的性格，也可以是你周围的人告诉你他以前是怎么样的一个人。
Example ：
Actually I didn’t know what he was like before he was famous until I watched an interview of him. He said that he used to be very self conscious 害羞的. He lacked confidence and didn’t know what he was going to do in the future. But after becoming famous, he started showing great talent for the arts. He not only worked hard on his performances, he also spent lots of time designing clothes.
04
Why you are interested in the person
最后一个问题，多数同学的出发点都在于一个人的品性。这完全没有问题，只是大家选择的形容词有点过于老生常谈，比如：hard-working/ persistent/ kind-hearted等。第一次听，你会觉得可以，如果10个考生给出的都是差不多的方向，我相信考官肯定会腻的。
就我个人而言，我在思考这一小问的时候更喜欢从"sense of social responsibility (社会责任感)"的层面着手，但社会责任感不单单体现在做慈善，它还包括爱国、为弱势群体发声、保护环境等。如果你从这个层面着手来回答问题，你可以给出更为深刻的内容。
Example one：爱国
Apart from his attractive appearance, I am interested in him because I think he has a great personality, he is patriotic 爱国的 and stands up for 拥护 what he believes. A couple weeks ago, when brands like H&M, Nike and Adidas boycotted 抵制 the use of Chinese cotton because of the labor abuse 虐待劳工 claims in Xinjiang Autonomous Area 自治区, he stepped up and supported China by cancelling his cotract with Nike. He is my role model.
Example two：为弱势群体发声
I think the world of 崇拜 him because he is brave and not fake. He is a huge supporter of LGBT groups. Even though America is liberal in comparison to other countries, homosexuals 同性恋者 are still judged and discriminated 歧视 against by others. In order to give them confidence and hope, he always posts messages online telling his followers the importance of acceptance and tolerance. He has also donated a large amount of money to LGBT groups. I think he is a positive and influential person who I would love to meet in the future.
Example three：保护环境
I am interested in him because he is very vocal in 发声 his support of environmental causes. He has advocated for restoring planetary biodiversity 生物多样性, limiting human population growth, shifting to renewable energy, reducing meat consumption, and setting aside 留出 more areas for natural preservation. Because of him, I developed a keen interest in animals and I have so much respect for him for everything he is doing to try and save the planet.
