公共英语二级考试口语辅导6
部分常考话题 11. Let’s talk about your hometown or village. What kind of place is it? My hometown is in the outskirts of Beijing. Maybe one hour travel time to get to Beijing. Fairly close I would say. The people there are mostly farmers but many young people have gone to Beijing to work. I like the place because it is very quiet. Unlike the people in big cities who are more complicated, the people of the place where I come from are usually more down to earth. 12. Why do you think trains are better than buses? Trains are better because they don‘t encounter any traffic, whereas sometimes in the bus, we get stuck in the traffic. Also, it is always difficult to get on the buses during the peak hour but with the train, you can bet that the chances of getting on are always greater during the peak hour. 13. What kind of parent do you intend to be? I want to have a good relationship with my child. I have seen so many kids who don’t really know their own parents, and I don‘t want to end up like that. I do plan to be strict, but loving. I want my child to always feel comfortable to approach me, whether they’ve been good or bad. It‘s pretty easy to tell you what kind of parent I want to be, but when I actually become a parent, I’m sure I‘ll have to revise my ideals a bit. 14. How different is your life from the lives of your parents? It‘s very different. I have had many more opportunities and a much more comfortable life than they had. I remember my father telling me stories about having just one egg to eat each week, and that was the highlight of his week. I can’t really imagine life like that, so I‘m grateful that I have a better life than my parents did. I appreciate their hard work to get us to this point in our lives. 15. Who does most of the shopping in your family? Well, I do most of the grocery shopping because there’s a market very close to my work. It‘s very convenient for me to pick up milk or eggs or what ever on my way home from work. But, my wife also enjoys shopping very much. She usually does a lot of the clothes shopping for my son and me. 16. Are you a good cook? a. Yes. I learned everything from my mother who was really famous in our hometown for her cooking. I suppose she learned how to cook from her mother as well. I think that’s how I won my husband‘s heart, by being such a good cook. He really appreciates good food, and I enjoy cooking for him. b. No. I’m a terrible cook. No one has ever taught me how to cook. I barely know how to boil an egg. Well, I do know how to make instant noodles, but it‘s just a matter of pouring boiling water on them and waiting for some time. I don’t like cooking either, but I do like eating. I suppose I‘ll have to marry someone who is a good cook. 17. Do you have a lot of friends? It depends on what you mean by “a lot”。。. I do have one or two very close friends, which is all that I need. I don’t have any trouble making friends, and I do have many good friends and acquaintances. But, really I feel most close to just one or two friends. 18. Which university is the best one in your country? Qinghua University is probably the best, although there are also others which are considered to be top notch. Still, Qinghua has the best international reputation, so I think most people would say it‘s the best. 19. How are you as a student? I am a very organized and highly motivated student. I study very hard, and like to constantly review my lecture notes and textbooks. After each class, I re-read all my notes and refer to them in the textbook. When I encounter something I’m not sure of, I make a point of finding the professor and asking him or her for further explanation. Also, I have a very good memory. Once I learn something, I remember it for a very long time. 20. Is there anything you don‘t like about your studies? Generally I like my studies but I hate the examination system. There are too many examinations during my school years and most of the time we have to memorize lots of things in books. I’m not very good at that and I find it‘s a waste of time and energy. Other than that, I quite enjoy my school time. 相关资料 |
