　　Traffic Jam

　　Describe a time when you had to wait in a traffic jam

　　You should say:

　　When it happened

　　Where it happened

　　How you passed the time while waiting

　　And explain how you felt when you were in that traffic jam.            

　　这个是一个事件类的话题，需要你去描述一个你一次堵在路上的经历Describe a time when you had to wait in a traffic jam 我们需要在一分钟准备，然后说一到两分钟的时间，题目下面会有4个小题会帮助你去回答的，you should say, when it happened, where it happened, how you passed the time while waiting, and explain how you felt when you were in that traffic jam。我们可以一个一个地回答，先讲完这是什么的事件，介绍整个题目之后，我们就可以像讲故事一样，先说说发生事件的时间、地点、人物、事情经过，跟人物感受但要注意，事情经过跟感受的比重应该相对多一些，因为这两个块会比较容易展开，让我们可以多说一些。记得这是在描述一件过去发生的事情，在回答时记得要注意时态的运用喔

　　其实堵车的说法有很多，常说的有几种，我可以说I was caught in a traffic jam 或是I was stuck in a bumper-to-bumper traffic。bumper-to-bumper traffic 车的保险杆相互碰撞的交通状况也就是堵车啦，我们也可以说I was tied up/held up in traffic，甚至更严重的交通状况我们可以称为gridlock (严重塞车、僵局)，反正怎样说都是恶梦 It is a nightmare。

　　回到这个题目，是要描述在堵车的时候，你所做的事情跟感觉，不要有过多的部份描述你因为这次堵车而迟到，迟了多久，有什么后果。

　　我们来看看第一个小题When it happened，我们就应该简单点明要说的事件，例如：

　　I am going to about a time that I was caught in a traffic jam 2 weeks ago and showed up late to the school.

　　然后就可以说说在那里发生的where it happened，然后再说说这次堵车的原因其中一个造成堵车的原因就是发生了交通意外traffic accident挡住了后面的车，车过不了就堵住了。

　　It happened at the intersection with the Nathan road, one of the busiest roads in Hong Kong. There was a serious traffic accident, a car crashed into the traffic light that blocked the cars at the back and that was the reason I got stuck in the road on the bus for nearly 2 hours.

　　既然你都堵车了，就只好等了，那在那的同时我们可以做些什么来让时间快过一点呢？how you passed the time while waiting 我们可以使用while的句子结构，来帮我说明当我在等的时间，我做了什么。

　　While I was waiting for the police to clean up the mess, I was trying to do different things to kill time. I took my phone out checking on the news and put my earphones on to listen to some music. When I felt bored with that, I started to chat with the person sitting next to me. He happened to be quite outgoing and sociable. We talked about everything, studies, hobbies and things that we like.

　　最后我们还是说一下我的感觉了explain how you felt when you were in that traffic jam。在堵车时间心情不好我觉得也是正常，但是我不会因为这样就生气或是让自己不开心，因为我觉得堵车不会因为我生气而突然就不堵了，但我倒不如心平气和的等吧。

　　I didn't feel upset or angry like what other people did when I was in the traffic jam because I didnt see much point that losing my mind there could actually help me faster get to the school. I tried to keep calm and wait patiently。
