雅思口语Part2 8分素材：对家庭重要的东西

　　【Part2话题】雅思口语8分素材：对家庭重要的东西，开篇可以直入主题从介绍这件东西是什么开始，紧接着描述一下它的由来以及保留了多长时间，很显然在中间两小问很难在素材里较好地扩展，那么在最后一小问，它为什么对家庭重要即意义上可以多做一点文章。

　　The important thing that has been kept in my family for a long time was the gold ornaments my grandma made for me. In the year when I was born, grandma bought a set of gold ornaments for me, the implication of which was to protect my safety and health.

　　Grandma said that this represented her blessing. From the year when I was born, my parents helped me to keep this set of gold ornaments. They told me that this was very important for us and it represented the love of the older generation for our younger generation. Parents said they would keep it for me until I get married, and after my marriage, they will send it to me. They hope that I can keep this set of gold jewelries well and pass it on from generation to generation, which is the best wish of each generation to their children. It has been more than 20 years, and this set of jewelries are still well protected, which is being put in the safest cabinet in our home. My parents will take it out every once in a while. Although our family moved away from the original city because of my parents' work, and we could not continue to live together with my grandma in the same city, whenever we took out this group of gold jewelries, we would think of grandma's sincere love and care for us, and we feel that grandma has been with us all the time.

　　I will fulfill the wishes of my grandmother and my parents, and also pass this gift on from generation to generation in the future, which means continuing to pass on the blessing of the older generation.
