Items 1-8 are fromCollege English Integrated Course 2(大学英语综合教程第二册)1. What are the differences between Chinese and American learning ways? Which one do you prefer, why?Chinese learning way is show children exactly what to do or how to do, and teaching by holding children’s hand. American learning way is making children learn to think by himself, to solve problems on his own and even to discover new problems, for which creative solutions are wanted. It’s value originality and independence more than the Chinese do.In my perspective, I prefer tradition Chinese learning way. There are two reasons for it. First, children can come back for more and happier. He can know the solution immediately and learn effetely. Second, I was taught by this tradition Chinese way, and I think my learning ability is well now.2. How do you comment on Karl Green's way of life? Give your reasons.Karl Green lives in a modest apartment, wears suitable cloth and has a dependable 1999 car. Though he is not rich, his life is colorful.

He writes poetry and shares it with friends. And he has many friends in the same hobbies. Third, he is devoting himself to charity. He rings the bell for the people who need help. He helps a lot of people and feels connect. He is psychological satisfaction.3. What do you think causes the generation gap, and how to solve this problem? Several reasons can account for this common phenomenon. Firstly, the gap between p arents and teenagers is a little big. That’s to say, parents are mutual and old-fashioned while teenagers are quite active,passive and in style. Therefore, it’s normal that parent s and teenagers are both very hard to find the common language. Second, the most important reason is that parents and teenagers are usually not trying to under stand each other. Just like Heidi’s father get with on his children.Thirdly, the children want to be more independent, but the parents still want to take children under their wings. I think we should build a bridge between parents and children. The can have a family meeting and exchange each side’s opinion, communicating and to have an agreement.Parents can also observe their children’s behavior in order to understand their children’s personality and reduce the quarrels between them.In conclusion, to have a close relationship between parents and children, it is rather important for eachside to respect and understand another.4. What do you do on the Internet nowadays? Do you think Internet has changed your life for the better? Why or why not? There is a big influence of technique on our daily life. I use internet to do some shopping, and chat with friends through QQ. It's convenient to search the information online.I take the view that the Internet has changed our life for the better. The Internet is freely available, universal communication. It is access to all the knowledge and learning of the entire world. It is an instant, free service which provides you with news, media, and knowledge, no matter where you go or what you do. The Internet affects everyone in the same way - it gives them more tools for faster communication, gives them more knowledge for smarter decisions, and gives them more people for a greater social network. These are all good things. Of course internet has some disadvantages, as it is a tool for quickly spreading misinformation, fear, and lies.In conclusion, we should take the advantage of the benefit of the Internet while av oiding negative effects.5. What roles do dreaming and hard work play in one’s success? Give some examples to explain. Dreaming is our hope ,it can lead us to know what to do, and then one must work hard to aim at what himself need, so that one can be a successful person. Land work is of great importance for a man to do everything.Do you know Nick? A man who was born without neither arms nor legs due to a rare disorder, he is disabled, unable to hug people, he ld someone’s hand, dance, walk, r an, or even touch. But he had a dream, he wants to do everything as a healthy man can, he tried very hard to achieve his dream, he learned to write using the two toes on his left foot, learned how to type on a computer, throw tennis balls, swim, and pretty much everything he needs for mobility. Finally, he succeeds.6. Can women be as successful as men in the society? Why or why not?In my perspective, women can be as successful as men in society. Today, there are a lot of women in top management positions, and there are many opportuniti es for women who are interested in have a career. Now many women are going into professions, such as medicine, law and engineering. Many scientists in many fields are also female. It may safely draw conclusion that women can do the same things as man can.If women have the same rights as men, they can also become a social backbone j ust like a man do.7. What do you think has made English “the first truly global language”?The UK was the first industrialized nation, and discovered that one of the advantages to this was that they could colonize the rest of the developing world far faster than other European countries could. The British Empire covered a quarter of the globe at its largest, including North America, the Caribbean, Australia, New Zealand, much of West and Southern Africa, South Asia, and parts of South-East Asia. The UK set up English-speaking systems of government, industry, and exploitation in these areas, which established English as the language of global power in the industrial era. The USA's cultural, economic, political, and military domination of the 20th and 21st centuries has ensured that English remains the mostimportant and influential global language. As the official language of business, science, diplomacy, communications, and IT (not to mention the main language of the most popular websites), this is unlikely to change any time soon.8. What should we do to protect our environment?Government should pass laws to prevent the environment from being further polluted, and laws controlling pollution must be strictly enforced. People should work hard to find ways to keep the earth clean: they treat waste gases, protect water sources and purify waste water. controlling the increase of population is also one of the most efficient ways. And above all, attention should be paid to the education of the people so that everyone will show his concern about environmental protectionItems 9-16 are fromNew Horizon College English--Speaking, Listening and Viewing (Book II)(新视野大学英语视听说)9.

Because it makes me laugh happily and I will forget about the annoyance. Watching comedy is a good way to relax, it helps me to keep the good mood.My favorite film is "Kung Fu Panda".The story was great and the background was beautiful, it really felt like an ancient Chinese city. And the meaning behind the story may be even better! The story is about Po, an overweight panda who is the son of a noodle maker, who dreams of Po following in his footsteps. But Po longs to be a ninja fighter. Po is a Sweet but clumsy, bear who hears the news the ancient and long awaited dragon warrior will be named, so he runs (as much as he can) to hear who will be named at the celebration. This is the first movie in a while I'd like to see again.11. Do you believe in love at the first sight? Why or why not?I believe love in love at the first sight.It’s very romantic.People say those who love at first sight are bound to meet each other and that t hey know the other one is to be one of the most important people in their life the first ti me they see each other. Some people say that love at first is not reliable. They think it is careless and abrupt to make the decision without enough consideration. But we should admit that if the personalities of the two persons match each other’s well, they will not reg ret making their decision at first sight. They will keep close relationship and strengthen t heir love as time goes on.12. Can you tell me an ad you like best? Why do like it?It is a Coca Cola commercial which aims at all the cola fans. It shows a guy using a machine, and inside the machine, you see the bottle of coke going all around in an animated world which is about Olympic sports.

Animals will lose their freedom and instinct if they depend on human care. And animals can be healthier in the wild than in the zoos. Please image, if you are kept in a cage, will you be happy? You even couldn’t move in a cage. I think we should let the animals live in the wild and build a nature reserve for them to live.14. Choose one of the following quotations on fashion and talk about it.A. Fashion goes round in circles. --- Siobhan FaheyB. Fashion is an imposition, a reign on freedom. --- Golda MeirC. Fashion is made to become unfashionable.I like the first sentence ”fashion goes round in circles ”. It means that an old fashion may become popular again after a period of time.They’re ve ry few fashions in music; movies, clothes, etc. are completely new. You can always find similar fashions in the past. In my mother’s time, the Wide leg pant is very popular. And in this year, wide leg pant is return to our view. Just as this sentence goes, fashion goes round in circles.15. How do you think about the proverb “Money is the root of all evils”?It is a common view that money is the root of all evil. The pursuit of money drives many people to cheat and steal. In some places there is nothing that cannot be bought with money, resulting in corrupt societies where everybody is miserable.Rich people often think money call get them out of trouble. This makes them less afraid to take risks. It also means they care less about other people’s feelings. So I think the proverb that money is the root of all evil sounds reasonable.16. Give some suggestions about how to prevent crimes.First of all, people should know the law. Know what is crime, what is illegal, do not fall into a wrong path. Secondly, people should abide by the law, not because of personal interests and breaking the law.

Then, the teaching equipment should be good, which will contribute to our study.2.Do you think universities should try their best to provide their students with more scholarships? Why or why not?I don’t think more scholarships are necessary. Merit-based(基于优秀的；以业绩为基础的)scholarships, which are mainly awarded by universities, aim to encourage the students to learn more. It’s a motivation, or a reputation. Students who have financial problems could apply for need-based scholarships. So it’s not necessary for universities to provide more scholarships.3.Which is more important in your college life, study or working experience? Why? In my opinion, we students should put study in the first place. Only by learning enough knowledge and skills now can we get a good job in the future.

2015年级第二学期期末口语考试内容
Unit 1 I began searching the crowd for one person who felt peaceful and calm that true courage or great faith gives people in these events. I saw no one. Then a couple of rows to my left, I heard a still calm voice, a woman’s voice, speaking in an absolut ely normal conversational tone. There was no tremor or tension. It was a lovely, even tone.I had to find the source of this voice.All around, people cried and screamed. A few of the men hold onto their composure by gripping armrests and clenching teeth, but their fear was written all over them. Although my faith kept me from hysteria, I could not have spoken so calmly, so sweetly at this moment as the assuring voice I heard. Finally I saw her.Unit 2 Until six weeks ago, that is, when I stumbled off a stair on the first day of a long-awaited vacation abroad, breaking my foot and thus ending the trip before it really began. That’s when my mild-mannered, gentle husband, with whom I’ve raised two children, the man I truly love and rely on, became someone I didn’t know: indignant, insensitive, uncaring. And his awful behavior continued until I figured out how to get his attention.UNIT 3 By the time a client decides to call us you can bet he or she has been living with the problem for some time, and they have tried all kinds of things to solve it. A reliable sign that stress is at work can be found where you have a problem and no matter what you do you get stuck with it. The problem seems to grow in weight and size and you get frustrated. This arouses anxiety or worry and the stress intensifies. The problem, which started as a mental or emotional issue, is now a physical one. Next come the headaches, muscular aches and pains, teeth grinding, shallow breathing, insomnia and drop in energy levels.Unit 4 But I guess that’s how things go. If you want to make it somewhere, you have to pay the prices. And that’s the story of most people all around the world. That’s how we, as humans, have come so far in living history.This new girl, my new friend, is still having a hard time adjusting to the school and the country. Her English is improving progressively over the weeks. With each day, she is closer in understanding the world around her. I believe in her. I know she can do it.Unit 5 Have you ever opened your closet and discovered it is full of clothes but you have nothing to wear?Economists have a term for this. They call it depreciating value of property and there are several m ethods, “straight-line” and complicated, to calculate the depreciation of vehicles or electronic goods.The psychological reason behind depreciating value has to do with the old biblical argument against coveting. We all covet things we don’t own, but the minute we acquire the object of our desire, it begins to lose its value.Unit 6 At the radiology center, I’d drop her off in the lobby, get her settled into a chair, go park the car, get out the walker and return to the main building to meet her. Then, upstairs in the M.R.I. suite we’d wait, and wait, and wait some more. Every time she had to go to the bathroom, I’d be on the alert. At first I forgot bottles of water or snacks, assuming there would be a cafeteria or vending machines. The uncomfortable plastic chairs had no armrests and shaped backs, and thus were painful for her to sit in. There was no TV. My mother was scared, miserable and alternatively grumbling and irritable. I bounced between jolly and sullen, with occasional bursts of genuine kindness.Topics1.What is a real hero like? What is the relationship between a real hero and courage?Can you keep your courage in times of crisis? Please show some examples.2.What skills are essential for effective communication? Please illustrate your pointswith examples.3.What pressures are working on college students today? What are the stressors forthese pressures? How to cope with college pressures?4.Would you like to pursue your study abroad after graduation? Why or why not?Please discuss the potential gains and the problems you will face.5.Please interpret the common factors that affect people’s consumption manners andoutline the reasons affecting you or your friends’ consumption manners. (Words for reference: online shopping, group buying, regular shops, credit cards, cash, coupons, promotion, discounts, on sale …)6.With the population aging, what do you think are the challenges for an agingsociety? What are the ways of caring for the elderly? （tips：What can the younger generation and the government do to care for the elderly? How do the elderly lead a happy retired life? )。

2015级二下口试话题
2015级二下口试话题Topic 1: A Logical Fallacy I Have Committed1) Define the concept of logic fallacy;2) Talk about a logical fallacy you have committed;3) Why is it a fallacy ? and what caused it?Topic 2: The Pursuit of Beauty1) What is beauty in your eyes?2) Your understanding of physical beauty and inner beauty;3) Which to pursue: physical beauty or inner beauty? and how to achieve it? Topic 3: The Entrepreneur I Admire Most1) Basic information about this entrepreneur;2) Why and what makes you admire him or her ?3) What can you learn from him or her?Topic 4: Culture Differences1) What do culture differences mean? Can you give some examples?2)What problems may be caused by our failure to recognize cultural differences?3) How will you prepare yourself to become “culturally competent”?Topic 5: Gender Equality1) Your understanding of gender stereotype2) The phenomenon of gender inequality in China.3) What should be done to achieve or improve gender equality?Topic 6: Should Men and Women Be Equal?1) Some people think men are superior to women in ability.2) But others believe that women have the ability to challenge men in many ways.3) Your opinion.1.A fallacy is the use of invalid or otherwise faulty reasoning, or "wrong moves",in the construction of an argument. A fallacious argument may be deceptive by appearing to be better than it really is. Some fallacies are committed intentionally to manipulate or persuade by deception, while others are committed unintentionally due to carelessness or ignorance.Fallacies are defects that weaken arguments; Logical fallacies are errors in reasoning that invalidate the argument. McMullin (2000), a clinical psychologist, explains that: "Logical fallacies are unsubstantiated assertions that are often delivered with a conviction that makes them sound as though they are proven facts".There are some types of logical fallacies:Hasty generalization,Missing the point,false cause,and Slippery slope.Let me introduce some cases.First,hasty generalization.Making assumptions about a whole group or range of cases based on a sample that is inadequate (usually because it is atypical or just too small). Stereotypes about people ("frat boys are drunkards," "grad students are nerdy," “women don’t enjoy sport”etc.) are a common example of the principle underlying hasty generalization. Second ,Missing the point.A andB are debating about the law.A: Does the law allow me to do that?B: The law should allow you to do that because this and that.B missed the point. The question was not if the law should allow, but if it does or not.Third,false cause.Which means as "after this, therefore because of this." Assuming that because B comes after A, A caused B. Of course, sometimes one event really does cause another one that comes later.But sometimes two events that seem related in time aren't really related as cause and event. That is, correlation isn't the same thing as causation.All in all,it is lacking of logical thinking that cause logical fallacy.Avoiding fallacies will strengthen our ability to produce strong arguments. It is important to note that.That all,thank you.2.From my perspective,beauty is not only as a characteristic of a person's appearance,but also a characteristic of an animal, idea, object, person or place that provides a perceptual experience of pleasure or satisfaction. Beauty is studied as part of aesthetics, culture, social psychology and sociology,often involves an interpretation of some entity as being in balance and harmony with nature, which may lead to feelings of attraction and emotional well-being.Besides, physical beauty is the degree to which a person's physical features are considered aesthetically pleasing or beautiful.It means one person has healthy body.While inner beauty is opposite of physical beauty.It is not appearance but soul of people’s spirit world,which includes psychological factors such as personality, intelligence, grace, politeness, charisma, integrity, congruence and elegance, etc.Focusing on what you enjoy about your personality, your life, and your individual circumstances rather than external factors, including your appearance, can help you radiate positively and commendable personality qualities to others.There are steps you can take to focus on creating an inner beauty.First of all,think positively about your personality rather than your external appearance.Second,inner beauty reflected by one people’s inner spirit world.Do more reading,expand you horizon,which will be good way to enrich you spirit.Third,expand your self-knowledge and awareness. Self-discovery can give you the tools to make the necessary changes to your life that lead to cultivating inner beauty. Seek new experiences, ask advice from others, and set achievable goals for your life and career. Challenge yourself with new experiences and ideas. Take a class, try a new sport, or try a new hobby. Expanding your thought process can spark creativity and push your boundaries for the better.As for physical beauty,maintain health on the outside. Part of creating and maintaining inner beauty involves ensuring that you maintain a regular health routine.Exercise is also key to improving your mood. It alleviates long-term depression and provides short-term emotional benefits.As an added benefit, regular exercise revitalizes skin, reverses aging, and reduces cellulite, all of which can lead to increased confidence and feelings of well-being.That’s all thank you.4.From my perspective,culture difference means:different language,different thinking logical,different life style and different sense of worth.For example,Chinese people do not have the same concept of privacy as Americans do. They talk about topics such as ages, income or marital status, which Americans think is annoying and intrusive.Besides,basically China values the community and the US values the individual. If you achieve something in the US, it's because you were great. While in China, if you achieve something in China it's because the team, or family, or company is great. Everything you do gets attributed to the greater whole, while in America individual merits are celebrated.Some problems may be caused by our failure to recognize cultural differences.For example,because of the lack of awareness of culture differences, some words and deeds can hurt the other feelings, such as religion, customs, and so on;Additionally,it maybe cause communication problems,which often derive from basic differences in values between cultures.What’s more, cultural differences may give rise to misunderstandings and conflicts of the types. It is often the case that cultural differences are used as the pretext for starting a war, discrimination against certain nationalities and cultural groups, etc. In such a case, there is a combination of misunderstanding between cultures and a clear political, ideological or economic motive to the conflict. The results of cultural differences can be many and various in normal life, ranging from misunderstandings which can be laughed away, to threats to the very existence of a person.So we should prepare ourselves to become “culturally competent”.Firstly,we can read more books about culture difference to get more knowledge.Secondly,as thesaying goes,When in Rome, do as the Romans do.It is necessary for us to respect different culture.Finally,the most thing is to do actions rather than just saying.。
