雅思口语要想考官眼前一亮，词汇的多样性和表达的丰富性必不可少。冲破5.5分魔咒，就用这些词替换掉一些大家都会用的表达方式吧！
1. want to do sth → be long for/to do sth 等
我们在表达「想要做某事」时，除了用I want to之外，还可以用:
·be long for/to do sth
·I hope/wish/expect that…
·I am hoping that…
·Hopefully, I would/could…
· I expect that…

good 是用途最广泛的形容词之一，只要是表示「好」就可以用 good 来形容。但是除了 good 之外，还可以用以下词汇表示「好」：
