【正文】 1. Animals l Do you like animals?你喜歡所有動物，還是只喜歡某些動物，它們的共同特點是什么？你喜歡它們的具體表現(xiàn)是什么？l Do people in your country like animals? 答案是肯定的，多數(shù)人還是喜愛動物，對動物挺友好的，但也有少數(shù)人虐待動物的，著實可惡！l What animals do people like to keep as pets in your country? (Why) 從最常見的開始說起，并說明為什么它們那么受歡迎。然后可以說說你所知道的不常見的寵物，并舉例說明。l Is there any change right now pared with the past? 這個問題問的是過去人們養(yǎng)的寵物和現(xiàn)在又什么區(qū)別。其實，過去又有多少人養(yǎng)寵物呢？l Do people of different age keep different animals as pets? 對不起，這個真不知道，但是你可以猜猜。參考：Yes I do, but not all animals. I prefer animals that are smart, cute and um, hairy多毛的, for example dogs. I dislike those hairless animals, like snakes and lizards. 蜥蜴They look so scary, you know. I get goose bumps毛骨悚然 whenever I see them. Well, generally yes. I think most people are fond of animals. And this can be seen from the fact that so many people keep animals as pets. But I have to admit 承認(rèn)that some people are cruel殘忍的殺害 to animals. I often read news reports about someone maltreating 虐待or even killing stray 流浪dogs and cats. It’s really abhorrent【?b39。h?r?t】 可惡的behavior. As I know, the most mon pets are obviously dogs, all kinds of dogs, like pugs（哈巴狗）, Peke（京巴）, poodles（貴婦，貴賓）, pit bulls（比特犬）, huskies（哈士奇）, chows（松獅）, Pome/ranians(松鼠狗，博美犬)，Samoyeds（薩摩耶），bulldogs, Chihuahuas, and cocker spaniels（可卡犬）. In my neighborhoods, 9 out of 10 pets are dogs. And I think the main reason why dogs are so wellliked is because they are great fun and smart, you know, you can teach them to do some simple tricks技巧, and they make great pany when you are lonely, and for children, they are wonderful playmates, and one more thing, dogs are loyal to their master. So they’re indeed確實 mankind’s best friend. Mum, well, I don’t know much about the past, but I suppose one big change is that more people keep exotic異國 pets now days than before, like German shepherd牧羊犬 and Persian cat波斯貓. I don’t think people in the past could buy such pets. I’m not sure, but I guess so. For example, I often see elderly people have pet birds, but I’ve never seen any young people keep them. And it seems to me that dogs are wellliked among all agegroups, yeah. 2. Your hometown (Version 1) l What’s your hometown famous for?頭疼，我們那里沒什么有名的呀，那就實話實說唄；如果有，具體說一說就行，比如你們那里的食物有名，然后準(zhǔn)備一種食物就可以啦，但一定要能描述它。l What do you like most about your hometown? 這個可以說氣候，環(huán)境，生活方式等（可以和北京進行比較，因為喜歡是相對的）l What do you think needs improving (needs to be improved) in your hometown? l 可以從交通和城市環(huán)境兩方面來說。l Do you know anything about the history of your hometown? l Or: Do/did you learn about the history of your hometown at school? 這個真不知道，因為咱們學(xué)校不教地方史，如果想知道地方史的話，得問老一輩的人，或者去圖書館查去。參考：My hometown is famous for its cuisine烹飪， especially noodles. People in my hometown are just crazy about noodles, and we’ve got about 100 different kinds of noodles. And you can find restaurants selling our noodles all over the country. My favorite is a kind of handmade noodles, which are very fresh and chewy耐嚼的, and also very tasty and nutritious, with fried pork mince炸豬排肉, a special sauce醬油 and shredded切絲 vegetables like cucumber黃瓜, and carrot胡蘿卜. I like to add vinegar醋 and fried chili辣椒 powder 粉末in it, giving it a very good sour 酸的and spicy辛辣的 taste, really appetizing!開胃的 The thing I love most about my hometown is definitely the landscape風(fēng)景. Unlike Beijing, which is very flat平坦, my hometown is hilly丘陵, with lots of hills and mountains. They are green all year round, very good places for camping, piicking and hiking. Another thing I love is the lifestyle, which is relaxed and not so stressful, pared with big cities like Beijing and Shanghai.I think one thing that really needs improving is the urban environment. It’s not very clean and tidy. Rubbish can be seen everywhere in the street and on the pavemen人行道t. Many people are litterbugs亂認(rèn)垃圾的人. I think the government should punish those people who drop litter亂丟廢物, and put more litter bins垃圾箱 around the city. To be honest, no. Local history is not taught at school in my country. We only learn the national history and a bit of world history at school. But I think it’s necessary for local schools to introduce local history into their curriculum課程, because I think it would be a shame羞愧 if you didn’t know anything about the history of your home city. 3. Your majorl What’s your major? =What subject do/did you study at university? l Is it popular in your country? Or: How popular is it in your country? 大家想想一個專業(yè)火不火的最直接體現(xiàn)是什么。l Why did you choose the subject/major? 不要老是我爸媽怎么著，還得說說你自己在選擇這個專業(yè)時的想法。l Do you like it? (Why?) 這個問題問的是，在你學(xué)習(xí)這個專業(yè)的過程中，你是否很享受，還是覺得上了賊船了？l Do you think it’s important to choose a major you like?當(dāng)然，興趣是最好的老師。l Do you think it’s got a good future?l Or: Do you think it can help you find a good job in the future?l Or: Do you think it will be easy to find a job when you graduate? 考察你對將來時態(tài)的運用。好找工作+為什么？不好找+為什么？參考：My major is/was International Business. Yes, it is. In my class alone, there are 40 students. And there are about 300 students studying this major in my department. And as I know, many universities have this major. I think the main reason why so many students choose the major is because it’s got a good future. I mean, as China does business with more and more foreign countries, professionals in the field of international business will be in great demand. I chose the major because I like it. You see, my ambition is to be a successful businessman/woman. And also my parents were very supportive of me. Yes, I do. And What I like most about my course is the case study. It’s so interesting to study why some panies are so successful and why others fail. And also from the case study, I get to learn some basic principles of corporate management, which I think will be useful to me when I have my own business in the future. Absolutely, like they say, interest is the best teacher. If a student enjoys what he’s study
