46. What do you think the goal of education should be? Should it be a process of learning what is useful for your future life or should it be simply learning for enjoyment? Why? Education should really be a time when you learn new ways of thinking and are challenged to go beyond what you know. But if I were to choose between learning useful things versus learning for enjoyment， I would definitely choose learning for enjoyment. I don‘t mean just learning when I feel like it. Rather， I mean studying things that interest me. If I am truly interested in a subject， I will delve into the material in greater depth and detail. 47. Do you think smoking is a problem that needs special attention and has to be solved? If so，why? Yes. People in China aren’t aware of the terrible health consequences of smoking. They just smoke because it‘s socially acceptable to do so. If more people knew they might get cancer from smoking， they would probably stop smoking， or at least smoke less. I do think that the tobacco industry is a big business， and if we tried to eliminate smoking， we’d also be eliminating jobs. It‘s a tough situation， but at the very least， people should be told that smoking causes lung cancer. That way they can make an informed choice about whether to smoke or not. 48. In what way do you think university training is helpful or falls short? In China， going to university can help me get a good job. But， many courses are too old and not very useful. The professors are just recently graduated and very new in their field， or older and not current with new developments. Also， we have to take all sorts of courses that are not directly related to our field. This， I feel， is a complete waste of time. We could be learning much more in our own field， instead of spending time learning courses that have no use for our future.
Tourism is playing a more and more important role in our country’s economy. Since the opening up， the number of tourists has increased dramatically， and this is a useful source of foreign currency for the country. 50. In your opinion， what are the most serious problems associated with modern life? I think that parents are very busy with their work or careers and have little time to spend with their child. Many people only think about money， and as a result， their families often suffer. What‘s the point of leading a modern life if you’re not very happy as a family? I really think that families are very important， but they are often overlooked and underrated. If China wants to be a strong country， we need to do all we can to strengthen our families. 相关资料 |
