今天,英国的媒体头条都是这个......

今天
毫无疑问地
英国各大媒体的头条都被这条新闻占据了....
BBC新闻:英国马上就欧盟问题公投
Buzzfeed: 是去是留? 明天就知道了!
泰晤士报: 是去是留? 明天就知道了!
太阳报: 今天,你可以让英国从欧盟的桎梏下解放。独立日!英国的重生!这...要不要这么简单粗暴?
首先先说说各大媒体用的最多的这个词:

英文是Referendum

在字典上的解释是这样的:

举行公投

就是hold a referendum

虽说这已经不是英国第一次和欧盟闹情绪

但这一次火药味是相当的

英国拉夫堡大学还专门做了一个调查报告数家英国知名的媒体在英国去留欧盟这个问题上表现出了非常不同的意见而且还带有很大程度上的“偏见”(火药味)......

Telegraph 上显示截至到6月22日的数据是酱紫的...

所以现在英国的街头大概是这样的...

反对的一方

“退欧?  你疯了么?”


马上学起来:
that's bananas :俚语,表示疯狂的,可笑的

退吧!我们要我们的国家回来!

↑随处可见的标示牌


马上学起来:

图片中的Brexit是一个新造的词儿,

其实是英国退出欧盟的一种方便的说法,

即British exit或Britain exiting from the EU(英国退出欧盟)


英国的大街上到处都是这样的标语以及各种传单......
当然也有不少人支持留在欧盟

代表人物当属英国的首相卡梅伦


马上学起来:

留欧派的英文是Remain campaign

关于留欧派,媒体有各种叫法,比如

remain campaign(支持留欧的运动)

remain campaigner(支持留欧运动的人)

remain camp(留欧阵营)

或者the "remain" side、the “in” side等


在雅思口语中

我们也可以结合

最新的一些新闻热点准备素材哦

比如关于欧盟公投这件事
大家可以结合雅思口语的这道题来说一说:

Describe an article that you read from a magazine or newspaper.

参考范文
I usually read a piece of  newspaper daily and I also enjoy reading the latest up-to-date (adj. 最新的) world news. There are lots of interesting, thought-provoking (adj. 引人深思的) and intriguing articles that I often confront with and today I would like to talk about one article that hits the headlines (登上头条) today.
It is about a referendum (n. 公投), which is being held on Thursday, 23 June. The aim of the referendum is to decide whether Britain should leave or remain in the European Union. This article I read today is designed to be an easy-to-understand (adj. 易懂的) guide for people who are not into international affairs.
It introduces a selection of (一系列) information that people need to know about the referendum. Issues like security, immigration as well as the background of the European Union are all mentioned in this article.
Therefore, I feel that this article alerts us and then shows us our unawareness of the issue and then gives the hope of making positive changes. After reading that, I have adopted a different perception about this tricky (adj. 棘手的) issue and want to read more on the topic.
