Part 2&3  A popular person答案及解析_雅思口语练习「新东方雅思官方网校」

I'd like to talk about a guy in my class in university who is really popular. In fact, I'm a bit envious of him, because he is popular with everyone – the girls, the boys, the teachers, and even people we meet outside! It's unbelievable. Although I'm a bit jealous of him, I actually also really like him! Which makes it even more annoying – he's a genuinely a nice guy. He's cool, fashionable, handsome, strong and always really well-dressed, but also a really nice, friendly, polite and kind, generous guy, too. It's like he has it all! He always makes us laugh, tells really funny jokes; he always studies hard too, without being a boring geek! He always gets involved in sports and social activities on and off campus and he is always willing to help people if they need help with literally anything. I don't really know how he manages to be so nice, and cool at the same time. He has a very even temper, he very very rarely shows it if he is annoyed about something, and strives to understand how other people feel in a really mature way. I think that's also why the teachers like him, too – he's quite mature and grown-up for his age really. As if he's had a lot of life experience which he has integrated into his personality really well. I have been friends with him for a few years now, and although, like I said before, I do feel a bit jealous of him, I also really enjoy spending time with him. We go for drinks in the bar opposite university and do KTV together and chat about life, and he always attracts other people to our table, so I get to make new friends almost every time we go out together. So, yeah, all in all, he's the most popular person I know. 

Some students want to become popular basically because it's really great when a lot of people like you! I mean, everyone wants to be liked, yeah? But, also I think some people are more inclined to want popularity than others – people who are more extrovert are more likely to want to become popular. Some kids are more introverted and definitely don't really care about popularity much, whereas others are highly social and care a lot about what their peers and other people think of them and seek to maintain friendships with more people. So, it's most certainly a personality thing too. 

The kinds of students who are popular in school are usually the ones who are easy-going, sporty and fashionable. At least to some extent. You know, those people that appeal to the mainstream tastes. Everyone is attracted to people who are positive, too, so being a positive person with a sense of humour and an outgoing attitude to life is always something that attracts other people. 

I'm not sure. I think that good teachers are often not the teachers that are the most popular. So, it's hard to say. Some teachers are fun and popular simply because they are easy-going and not very strict, but that doesn't mean they are good teachers – it simply can mean that they are relaxed with the students and don't put that much pressure on them. So, when it comes to teachers, sometimes popularity isn't always a sign that they are actually good teachers. 

Some celebrities are more popular than others, naturally, as, after all, they are only human, just like the rest of us! But I'd say that the ones that are least popular are those that end up letting their fame go to their heads and display a negative attitude to others in the media, or end up getting involved in scandals which give them a bad name. Not all celebrities are “good people” in terms of how they behave and how they treat others, and there are plenty of stories in which celebrities end up tarnishing their own reputations and losing popularity because they behave badly, or get involved in doing things that have a negative influence on their public image.
