1、 Environment Tell me something about the living environment in your hometown. What do you think are the reasons/solutions for the pollution problems? Why is it important to protect the environment? What change do you foresee in the next 50 years? Reasons1. Lack of environment protection awareness2.
2、Recycle system3. Large cities/population; industrial areas Solutions1. Through the legislation; enhance measures reduce the emission (discharge levels)2. Public transportation system3. Increase energy efficiency: encourage green technology4. General education: advertisement to the general public Tel
3、l me about the different types of transportation in your city.Of course, you know theres quite a mixed variety of public transportation in my city. Though I think themost commonly-used would be buses. And the explanation for this could be that they are so cheap and reliable.In fact the average bus f
4、are in my city is about 2 yuan for a single journey. Problems: 1. Traffic jam/traffic congestion 2. Car accidents 3. Traffic signals 4. Environmental impact and energy consumptionI use it not just to go back and forth to work but also to go shopping. I have amonthly pass and so I can travel freely o
5、n one without having to pay each time I goon. I also use a bus when I want to go traveling from one place to another fordistances that do not last fur more than a day. I do have a bicycle, but I use thatonly for very short distance things, like getting some vegetables at the localgrocery store or th
6、ings like that.I prefer taking the bus. I always feel safe taking a bus because it is a big vehicle andit moves more slowly than a taxi. It is quite convenient, since there are enoughlines. Even though it is not as convenient as a car, it allows you to work while youare traveling. It is relatively c
7、heap compared to a car and a subway, and it can becomfortable, although it can be a bit crowded, and its not so nice if you have tostand for long distances. I like buses most because I can talk with people and makemore friends. Riding a bus also has its disadvantages, like sometimes it can be a bit
8、crowded, and you do have to watch for pickpockets. But overall its the best optionI have. Besides, if everyone were to drive a car, then the environment would beseverely polluted.Education What changes took place in education in your country over the past decade? What are the problemsof the educatio
9、n system in China? (solution) Do you think school is the only way for people to get educated? What will the schools be like in the future? What is education?Education is the most powerful weapon which you can use to change the world .An educated person is respectedeverywhere.Education is the foundat
10、ion of a civilisation.Obviously Chinese schools and universities are undergoing a series of (a lot of) transformation. For example, theextended enrollments has lower the benchmark for students that want to study in university. (easier)How ever, it alsoincreased the competition between the graduate s
11、tudents in terms of finding jobs.To me, the Chinese education system has (much) space for improvement.Most of the knowledge I learned in schoolwas exam-oriented and I dont find them practical in real life. I suppose the Chinese education system is moreexam-oriented compared with the education system
12、 in western countries. We have to learn a lot of knowledgebyheart to deal with a series of exams, while in other countries, children will learn stuff that they could really use in thereal life, for example how to do research, give a presentation, and so onA place to visit.l Alright, well Ive been as
13、ked to talk about something beautiful and Id like to choose the White CloudTemple. It is located in Beijing and its on the west side of town. Its not that far away from a subwaystation, but you would need to take a bus, because its a bit far to walk. I go there probably two ormore times a year. I re
14、ally try to take a trip to find some time to rediscover myself. During the SpringFestival people jam into it because they hold what I think is the best carnival during Spring Festival.We call them Miao Huis. At that time the temple is very crowded, but most other times its quitepeaceful, and its a g
15、ood place to get away from all the people.I think the reason its so beautiful is because it is simple and it seems to blend in well with itsenvironment. I love to go there during the winter after a big snowfall because its at this time that itseems to be most mysterious.I choose this as the most bea
16、utiful because, to me, beauty is simplicity and natural design, and it alsomeans it fits the environment it is in. I prefer temples that seem powerful not because of their structuresbut because they are perfect for their simple beauty.l Right, well, as my topic I chose a mountain that I like. This m
17、ountain is not famous, and its locatedjust north of Jinan. It is not the famous Taishan Mountain. In fact its quite far away from that area. The mountain is called Black Bird and it is not high. To get there you must drive off a small road onthe way to Taian and head right. It goes quite some length
18、, and the condition of the road is not verygood.The mountain is simply a cliff that sticks out of a small range of hills. Its shape is like a bird, andit seems to be like a lonely eagle looking over its small family. In the far background you can seeTaishan Mountain, but, as I said before, its quite
19、 far away. If you want you can try to climb the cliff.You probably can, but be careful because the rocks are quite loose. I think I like it most because itseems so mysterious, as if its holding a secret. I always feel very moved when I go there. I think itseems to have a kind of quiet power over the
20、 land that it overlooks.HobbyI love to play badminton especially in the summer time. It is a game I really enjoy, so play it whenever I can get awilling partner. It is a lot like tennis, but I can play badminton anywhere. I do not have to go to a tennis court to play and Ican play in between classes
21、 without getting sweaty. Badminton is played with rackets that look a lot like tennis rackets,but they are much more delicate. You should have a net, which sits high above the ground, and a ball that is called a birdie.The birdie has a small rubber half a ball on one end, and it fans out with feathe
22、rs on the other end to help it to fly. Abadminton court has a net in the center that stretches from side to side. Each side of the net has a square that the teammates play in. It is ideal to play badminton with four people, but you can play one on one as well. You can also play withoutpoints or a ne
23、t, but I do not think it is as much fun.It is a game that takes a lot of energy so you get plenty of exerciseplaying badminton. The main reason I like the game is that everyone, man or woman, has an equal chance to compete.There are so many sports that require height or strength to be good; it is re
24、freshing to play one that I have an equalopportunity to win. Maybe that is why I get very competitive and energetic when I play. I love the game; it is fun andrewarding, and I feel alive when playing.JobsA dream job I would like to have would be a professional shopper. This job would involve me work
25、ingfor variouscompanies as a free-lance shopper. I would go to various places and then pretend that I was shoppingfor certain things. Iwould record what the staff said to me in a secret tape-recorder. I would then write up a report about the service Ireceived and determine what things I was impresse
26、d with and didnt like so much. Then I would be paid very handsomelyfor the report.I would like to be able to create my own hours for this job, and I would like to have all mytransportation paid for, and I would like all the normal benefits to apply like health insurance andpensions.I think I would l
27、ike this kind of job because, well . I love shopping. I mean, I can shop allday without getting tired, so I imagine that this job would be a piece of cake. Plus, I think this kindof job is useful because it lets the companies know either their service towards customers is goodor not, and if they kno
28、w what areas they need to improve then they can go out and make theseimprovements. So I think the service I am doing for society is a good one and can lead to betterservice quality and perhaps increased salaries. Also, I have a feeling I could make big money withthis job.art or craft activityTalking
29、 about an art activity that I remember be part of is the photography competitionin my high school. Well, to be frank, my memory fails meand I cannot recall the exact date when I attended the craft activity but I am sure it must be in the high school. The activity actually was kind a like a project,
30、aiming to help students get familiar with photography and be more conscious about preservingtraditional culture. Actually, the theme of the competition is “ Where is our tradition”,which means all the participants have to take a series of pictures of things related to our tradition or culture.Some o
31、f my classmates who were interested in photography and me formed a team and we did the project together. Some of my team members are really brilliant and professional in photography and some others are specialized in traditional stuff and history. After we registered for thecompetition, we were real
32、ly excited and eager to do it well. So, naturally, we did a lot of preparation,the whole group was divided into 3 teams,Team 1 was responsible for searching information on the Internet and Team2 to design the framework and album, and I was in the Team 3, taking the pictures. My team went to lots of
33、places in my hometown and took lots of pictures, including paper cut, pottery, embroidery and even Chinese knot. We worked really hard for it after school because the time for us was quite limited, only 1 week I guess. For one or two days, we even burned mid-night oil together in my home. But, when
34、we finished the album,we achieved great sense of fulfillment. I mean we really do something by ourselves. More importantly, through this art activity we learnt more and about our traditionI remember when I was in primary school, in our first art class, our teacher brought a pile of white masks to th
35、e classroom, and handedthem out to each one of us. We were all curious as to what she was about to do with them. Most of us thought maybe she wanted us to dothe mask dance or something. We had no clue until she took out the brushes and watercolors.She said, now i ts time to use your imagination and
36、create your own unique masks. There are no rules, no limit, or so-called standards.You can do whatever you want to the blank mask. Everybody got so excited cause we had never done anything like that before. All thestudents started to paint with the stuff our teacher provided.Im a huge fan of paintin
37、g, so I didnt think there would be anyone whos more elated than I was. I used to love Spiderman at thattime, so I decided to draw the face of him on the mask. But the thing was, I couldnt do it without a picture, you know. I just had a roughidea about what he looked like, so all I could do was draw
38、it according to my memory. As you can imagine, I applied lots of red and bluewatercolors.Mature，dynamic and honestAbility to work independent1y，mature and resourcefu1 能够独立工作、思想成熟、应变能力强。 A person with ability plus flexibility should app1y.需要有能力及适应力强的人。 A stable personality and high sense of responsib

41、 attitude. 开朗成熟。 Strong determination to succeedcountryside & cityI think living in the countryside is far better than living in the city. There are numerous of reasons why living incountryside is the better than the city. The scenery, the streets, the people and the paced are totally different comp
42、are tothe city. The first outstanding characteristic about the countryside is that it is beautiful and peaceful. The air is fresh andthe surroundings green. This is because the countryside is free from pollution, be It air, land or noise pollution. There nosuch perfect peaceful view that you can see
43、 other than in the countryside. The trees surrounded the countryside help thepeople from inhaling the polluted air. The freshness smell of plant somehow helps the people of the countryside to have ahealthy life.Furthermore, people in the countryside are more conscious of keeping their surroundings c
44、lean and so there is littlethrowing of rubbish everywhere, only at designated places.This is unlike the cities where if the garbage trucks do not collect the rubbish disposed by household or restaurants, the city will be overflowing with rubbish! This will attract themosquitoes, fly, rats and wild d
45、ogs to pollute their surrounding that will cause them to have diseases like dengue andcholera. Thirdly, heavy traffic and crowded streets increase the level of noise pollution. There are also sound o f themachine used in manufacturing factories, loud radio in and out the mall. These add to the noise
46、 of the city. However, in thecountryside, life is slow-paced. There is no need to rush around because there are not too many places to go. Most placesare close by and people can walk or cycle. I really enjoy this.Parachute Jump & Hot air balloonAround the world more and more people are taking part i
47、n dangerous sports and activities. Of course, there havealways been people who have looked for adventure- those who have climbed the highest mountains, traveled intounknown parts of the world or sailed in small boats across the greatest oceans. Now, however, there are people who lookfor an immediate
48、 excitement from a risky activity, which may only last a few minutes or even seconds.I would consider bungee jumping to be a good example of such an activity. You jump from a high place (perhaps abridge or a hot air balloon) 200 meters above the ground with an elastic rope tied to your ankles. You fall at up to 150kilometers an hour until the rope stops you from hitting the ground. It is said that about 2 million people around the worldhave now tried bungee jumping. Other a
