口說真題分享

A time when you told your friend an important truth 告訴朋友重要的真相

《A time when you told your friend an important truth 告訴朋友重要的真相》是《雅思口說當季真經全詳解》Sep-Dec 2025 中收錄的雅思口說 part 3 延伸 part 2 cue card 的考題。問題內容如下（節錄）：

1. Do you think we should tell the truth at all times?
   你認為我們應該時時說實話嗎？

   我認為我們應該盡量在大多數時候說實話，因為誠實能建立信任。例如，如果朋友向你諮詢學習方面的建議，說實話確實能幫助他們進步。然而，我認為我們不必在所有情況下都100% 誠實。有時候，一個小小的「善意謊言」可以保護別人的感受，例如朋友剪了個糟糕的髮型，我們會說看起來還不錯。所以，雖然真相很重要，但我認為我們也需要友善。誠實應該與關心和尊重他人的情緒相平衡。

   I think we should try to tell the truth most of the time, because honesty builds trust. For example, if a friend asks for advice about studying, telling the truth can really help them improve. However, I don’t think we must be 100% honest in every situation. Sometimes, a small“white lie” can protect someone’s feelings, like when a friend gets a bad haircut and we say it looks fine. So, while truth is important, I believe we also need to be kind. Honesty should be balanced with care and respect for other people’s emotions.

2. How do you know when others are telling lies?
   你如何知道別人在說謊？

   點此看中文

   這並不總是容易的，但有一些跡象。例如，當有人迴避眼神交流、語速過快或改變故事情節時，我可能會懷疑他們在說謊。有一次，我的同學說他完成了作業，但他看起來很緊張，一直在找不同的藉口。後來，老師發現他真的沒有說謊。不過，每個人說謊的跡像都不一樣，所以這並非100% 可靠。有時人們撒謊很巧妙，但真相往往事後才知道。所以，雖然肢體語言和說話的一致性是線索，但我們並不總是能夠完全確定。

   It’s not always easy, but there are some signs. For example, when someone avoids eye contact, speaks too quickly, or changes their story, I may suspect they are lying. Once, my classmate said he finished his homework, but he looked nervous and kept giving different excuses. Later, the teacher found out he really hadn’t done it. Still, not everyone shows the same signs, so it’s not 100% reliable. Sometimes people lie very smoothly, and you only know the truth later. So, while body language and consistency are clues, we can’t always be completely sure.

3. Sometimes people should tell lies. Do you agree?
   有時候人們應該要說謊。你同意嗎？

   點此看中文

   是的，我同意謊言有時是必要的，尤其是為了保護他人。例如，如果孩子生病了，父母可能不會說出全部真相，以免嚇到他們。另一個例子是驚喜派對－撒點小謊有助於保持驚喜。當然，那些傷人的嚴重謊言是錯的。但一些小謊言，通常被稱為“善意的謊言”，實際上可以透過避免不必要的痛苦來改善人際關係。我認為關鍵在於意圖。如果謊言是為了幫助或安慰某人，那麼它是可以接受的。但如果它是自私的，那麼它就是有害的。

   Yes, I agree that sometimes lies are necessary, especially to protect others. For example, if a child is sick, parents may not tell the full truth to avoid scaring them. Another case is surprise parties—lying a little helps keep the surprise. Of course, serious lies that hurt people are wrong. But small lies, often called “white lies,” can actually make relationships better by avoiding unnecessary pain. I think the key is the intention. If the lie is meant to help or comfort someone, it can be acceptable. But if it’s selfish, then it’s harmful.

4. Do you think it’s more important to win a game or follow the rules in sports?
   你認為在運動比賽中，贏得比賽和遵守規則哪個比較重要？

   點此看中文

   我認為遵守規則更重要，因為運動不僅是為了贏球，也關乎公平和團隊合作。例如，在籃球比賽中，如果球員故意犯規作弊，他們或許會贏，但這會破壞比賽精神。勝利的感覺很好，但這只是暫時的。尊重規則體現了真正的體育精神，並能贏得他人的持久尊重。我曾經參加過一場學校排球比賽，我們隊輸了，但我們遵守了規則，仍然感到自豪。所以，在運動中，誠實和公平比結果更重要。

   I think following the rules is more important, because sports are not just about winning, but also about fairness and teamwork. For example, in a basketball game, if a player cheats by fouling on purpose, they might win, but it ruins the spirit of the game. Winning feels good, but it’s temporary. Respecting the rules shows true sportsmanship and earns lasting respect from others. I once played a school volleyball match where my team lost, but we followed the rules and still felt proud. So, in sports, honesty and fair play matter more than the result.
