HomeTownWhere are you from,which part of your country?I am from a small town of Taian city of Shandong Province in China.It locates onthe northeast of China and southwest of Shandong.1.what do u like about your hometown? (What would you say is the best thing aboutyour hometown? What's your favourite part of your hometown?Do u like your hometown? ) I love my hometown's beautiful natural scenery[si:neri] very much.My hometown is an inland agricultural region.It is famous for its peach.Most farmers in the townplant peaches ,although they also plant other fruits,but mostly peaches.In thespring,the peach trees are blooming.Without a real look you can't imagine howbeautiful the peach blossom blooming all over the moutain is .It is gorgeous.Andcos it's not an industrial town,the environment is good ,the air is clear,the skyis blue,and I also enjoy the peace and quiet there.2.what do u dislike about your hometown.I guess the answer would be the economy.Cas my hometown is not near the centre of the city,its economy is bad.Some area are pretty run-down.Pepole in my hometown are not rich and the living condition is not very good.Even worsely its economy is shrinking instead of growing cas the peaches sell not very well in recent years.I think maybe the quality of the peaches dropsis the reason,you know,its taste is not as good as before,so less and less peoplebuy peaches.3.Do u think your hometown is good for young people?No.cas i think my hometown is kind of falling behind the times.it lacks ofopporpunity and changes which is very important for the young people.Most old people in the town didn't get the high education.That's why most parents in my hometowntry their best to support their children to the college.They think only knowlegecan change your fate.4.what's the nightlife like in your hometown?Most pepole in my hometown don't go out at night.After dinner,Children may dohomework in their room while the parents watching TV outside.This reminds me of my childhood.cas my parents are not stict with me,so I can watch TV while i am doinghomework.That's a reward for my good scores in the exam.Parents in my hometown don't care how u study,they just want the result. You give them what they want ,you canget the freedom.Oh Sorry,i go too far.5.what would u change about your city?The economic system i think. People in my hometown they just plant the peachesand sell them to the dealers.The money farmers can get is very limited.If they canbe the dealers themselves or the government of my hometown can open bussiness such as peach juice factories,dried peach factories,i think things may go very differently. And they must improve the quality of the peaches firstly of course.Because in my memory the peach of my hometown are very big and delicious and also have numrous varieties.I am v ery confused why the quality drops year by year.I just can't get it.6.What types of public transport can be found in your hometown?The bus and bike.If people in the town want to go to the market or the shop and students want to go to school ,they often go there by bike or motorcycle.But if they wantto go to the city,bus is the first choice.Few people have private cars in myhometown.And if people has some hurry things to do ,and they don't have a motorcycle and no time to waiting bus ,they may take a taxi.(But the taxi is not a real taxi.I mean it's not like the taxi in big cities.It' kind of a mixture of motorcyle andcar.It has three wheels and a carrige shed.In small cities and towns of China youcan see this kind transportation everywhere.)But few pepole will do that cas mostpepole are penny-pinching ,they think taking taxi is a luxury.Where do you live at the moment?I’m n ot living in my h ometown r ight now.I am l iving in my u niversity .It is in Dongying city of ShanDong Province.How long have you been living there/here?I am living there about 6 years.cas I study in my university for about6 years.4 years for my u ndergraduate course,2 years for my m aster’s degree.I am back to my hometown only on vacation.Do you like _____? (The place you are living in now) (Why?/Why not?) Actually I don’t like it.cas its climate is harsh.It seems like there are only 2 seasons in this city,winter and summer.You m ay w ear a down coat yesterday and today you only need to wear a T shirt because of the hotweather.Where is your hometown? (Or, what part of China do you come from?) What kind of place is your hometown?Is that a big city or a small town (or, a village in thecountryside)?(Similar to above) How big is that place? *(For you,) what benefits are there from living in a big city?(Similar to above) Tell me something about your hometown.Has your hometown c hanged much i n the past few years? (e.g. 20 years) yes.There are a lot of changes.First of all,more buildings and factories are showing up , besides,the populations are getting bigger and bigger.Thetraffic system is more convenient.But the environment is worse than it used to be.Rivers are polluted and trees are cut down,the air is not as fresh asbefore.Compared to the past, would you say your hometown today is moresuitable for living in, or less suitable?It depends. On the one hand ,the house people lives now is far more better than the past and the transportation is more convenient.it seems like today ismore suitable compared to the past.On the other hand ,the worse environment plus for the pastDo you think you'll always live there?No.I haven’t live there for a long time since I went to college.Iwill find a job in big cities in the future,so I guess I won’t go back unless I visit my parents.What's the weather usually like in your hometown?It has a great climate all year round.The spring is warm a nd the summer is rainy.I like autumn in my hometown cas it’s cool and refreshing.Andthe cold of winter there is within our limit.Has the weather in your hometown changed much in recent years?Yes.seems to me like the spring days and the autumn days are shorterthan 20 years ago .By contrast, the summer days and the winter days aregetting longer.And the summer is scorching now and the winter is like freezing.What sorts of buildings are there in your hometown?Most buildings there are 3 to 4 storeys high.Some area are prettyrun-down.And people in the village usually live in bungalows.I said that the economy of my hometown is in a slump.7.Do you live in a house or a flat?I live in a flat.It is on the fourth floor of the building of six stories.It'sa little high for old people,my mother complains about that everytime she climbsthe stairs.why do you choose living there?Cas it’s in a pretty convenient location.And there's a wonderful view outside the window.It also has a roomy kitchen.But I guess the most important reason may be It’s cheaper than the 1st floor of the building.Which room do you like best?

雅思口语第一部分参考答案(HND)
1. Animals●Do you like animals?--你喜欢所有动物，还是只喜欢某些动物，它们的共同特点是什么？你喜欢它们的具体表现是什么？●Do people in your country like animals?--答案是肯定的，多数人还是喜爱动物，对动物挺友好的，但也有少数人虐待动物的，着实可恶！●What animals do people like to keep as pets in your country? (Why)--从最常见的开始说起，并说明为什么它们那么受欢送。
然后可以说说你所知道的不常见的宠物，并举例说明。
●Is there any change right now compared with the past?--这个问题问的是过去人们养的宠物和现在又什么区别。
其实，过去又有多少人养宠物呢？●Do people of different age keep different animals as pets?--对不起，这个真不知道，但是你可以猜猜。
参考：--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whe never 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 ad mit承认that some people are cruel残忍的杀害to animals. I often read news reports about someone maltreat ing 虐待or even killing stray 流浪dogs and cats. It’s really abhorrent【əb'hɔrət】可恶的behavior.--As I know, the most common pets are obviously dogs, all kinds of dogs, like pugs〔哈巴狗〕, Peke〔京巴〕, poodles〔贵妇，贵宾〕, pit bulls〔比特犬〕, huskies〔哈士奇〕, chows〔松狮〕, Pome/ranians(松鼠狗，博美犬)，Samoyeds〔萨摩耶〕，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 well-liked 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 company when you are lonely, and for children, they are wonderful playmates, and one more thing, dogs are loyal to their master. So they’re in deed确实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异国pets now days than before, like German shepherd牧羊犬and Persian cat波斯猫. 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.

雅思口语--part1解析
15.Foodhave a good appetite胃口好according to根据otherwise否则put on weight体重增加，发福have some problems with在。
方面有问题be haunted by被困扰skip breakfast不吃早餐in an effort to为了lose weight减肥weight control控制体重1)Which do you prefer to eat,lunch or dinner?Why?I prefer to eat lunch. I usually have a good appetite during lunchtime. I will have a variety offoods for lunch, which can provide different nutrients to my body. Besides, I don ’t have to worry too much about getting fat if I eat some food of high calorie because I often do some exercises in the afternoon. According to some science research, one should not eat much during the dinner; otherwise, one will put on weight or have some problems with his stomach. So I often eat some vegetables and fruits at dinner.2)Do you think there are any benefits from eating breakfast?Sure, there are lots of benefits. Eating breakfast will provide your body with enough energy so that you can study or work more efficiently in the morning. I would say, eating breakfast is a must for a healthy diet. People who do not eat breakfast will be haunted by many kinds of diseases in their later years. Some people often skip breakfast in an effort to lose weight, but that's not a good idea. Skipping meals, especially breakfast, can actually make weight control more difficult. Breakfast skippers tend to eat more food than usual at the next meal, or nibble on high-calorie snacks to release hunger. There are some studies suggesting that people tend to add more body fat when they eat fewer, larger meals than when they eat the same number of calories in smaller and regular meals.3)Are you willing to try some new food?Yes. I always like trying new food. Nowadays, food is far more than something that fills our stomachs. Different kinds of food stand for different cultures. For example, the popular TV program named A Bite of China represents our marvellous Chinese food culture. I believe new food stands for a new culture. New food also means a new life. I like experiencing new life, just as I like tasting new food. As a southerner, I felt very excited to try many kinds of northern food when I first went to Beijing. Since then I fell in love with many delicious foods there.Or: When I came to Suzhou for the first time, I went to try some local snacks. They were verydelicious, so I would suggest you going … …4)Which do you prefer—to eat one big meal or to eat several small snacks?I would prefer to eat several small snacks. Big meals are usually the same except slightdifferences. But snacks are of different features and tastes. It is a special experience to taste different small snacks without getting too full. Especially when I arrived at a new place, I would like to try some local snacks. That was amazing.5)What do you consider to be a healthy diet?I would think a healthy diet should first include adequate nutrition that the body needs. Weusually consider such nutrients as protein, fat, vitamin, minerals, and fibre when we talk about nutrition. A healthy diet should include some food that can give the body enough energy and other kinds of food that can provide sufficient fibre. Some people would say that a healthy diet should exclude those foods of high calorie. Actually, as long as the calorie you take from food provides adequate energy to your body, the diet is healthy. The pre-requisite is that you should keep a balanced diet.6)Do you know how to make(prepare)a meal?Yes, I often cook delicious food. Making meals for my family is really a great pleasure. For example, in Spring Festival, my family will prepare a feast for the big family, including my grandparents, my uncles, aunts and their children. I will cook some dishes and as well as help my parents to do the cooking. Knowing that my family enjoy the food makes me extremely happy.16.Museumsdepend on取决于splendid辉煌的，灿烂的embroidery刺绣Chinese paintings国画Calligraphy书法classical gardens古典园林one of the best representatives最优秀的代表之一pay a visit to参观，拜访vary使多样化involve sb in牵涉，将……包含在内1)Are there many museums in your hometown?Positive: Yes, I often visit museums in different cities. Museums in those cities usuallyprovide exhibitions about the local history, art and many other aspects of life. These days, many museums vary their ways of presenting their exhibitions by involving visitors in some interactive activities. This gives visitors very special experience. Visitors not only learn much through the visit but also enjoy it. So I often visit museums when I go to a new city.Negative: Well, to be honest, I haven't been to any museum before. But I hear there is a very famous museum in London, named British Museum. So I suppose ifI had a chance, I would go there to have a look.2)Do you think museums are useful for visitors to your hometown?Of course they are very useful. Museums are the best places for visitors to understand and appreciate the culture of Suzhou. As a world famous scenic spot, Suzhou is one of the bestrepresentatives of Chinese classic culture. And the museums in Suzhou will offer the visitorsa window to understand and appreciate Chinese culture. Every day, numerous visitors acrossthe world are paying a visit to these museums, and I think they will find the visit very useful and interesting.3)Do you often visit a museum?Yes, I often visit museums in different cities. Museums in those cities usually provide exhibitions about the local history, art and many other aspects of life. These days, many museums vary their ways of presenting their exhibitions by involving visitors in some interactive activities. This gives visitors very special experience. Visitors not only learn much through the visit but also enjoy it. So I often visit museums when I go to a new city.4)Did you go to any museums when you were a child?Yes. I remember that my parents took me to some museums when I was very young.Everything was new and interesting to me. When my parents told me the story behind the items on display, I would listen to them very carefully. Due to those experiences, I developed an interest5)Do you think museums are important?Surely. Museums are good places to protect and present the objects of cultural significance.They stand for the culture of a city. Besides, people will understand a city better through visiting the museums.6)Do you think it’s suitable for museums to sell things to visitors?Wel, I should say it would be a good idea for the museums to sell things related to the exhibitions to visitors. Visitors can keep them as souvenirs or sending them as gifts to friends.For those non-profit museums, they would have a larger budget to improve their conditions and services if they can increase their income by selling things to visitors. However, there are some museums selling some products at a high price to visitors. I would think it ’s not suitable, because museums are mainly for the public interest.17.ParksIt only takes me five minutes to…我只需要花五分钟就可以……zigzag path弯弯曲曲的小道getting close to nature亲近自然work out进行锻炼play chess下棋play on a swing荡秋千keep fit保持身体健康the ecological system生态系统greenbelt绿地1)Are there many parks or public gardens where you live(or,in your hometown)?Yes. There are a lot of parks near my house/ near my school/ in my hometown. These parks usually provide different equipments for people work out or take a rest. They help people to develop a healthy lifestyle.2)How often do you go there?Well, that depends. It only takes me five minutes to walk to the park near the place where I live. So I usually go to the park three times a week. But I may not go there for a period of time if I’m too busy. There are lots of trees and flowers in the park. I can enjoy the scenery by walking along the zigzag paths and trails.3)What do you(like to)do when you go to a park or public garden?I usually go to the park for a walk with my friends, enjoying the fresh air or just getting closeto nature. But there are also times when I go there to do some exercises with the sports equipment in the park. I also work out in the park. I should say going to the park on a regular basis is a good way to relax myself and keep me healthy.4)What do other people do in these places?People of different ages will do different things in the parks. Senior people often do some light exercises, play chess or chat with friends, sing songs, practice dancing, etc. Children will play games, play on a swing, fly the kite or anything that is fun. Some people in their middle age will try to do exercises to keep fit.5)Do you think parks and public gardens are important to a city?Certainly, I think parks and public gardens are really an important part of a city. They providea place for people at any age to relax, enjoy the leisure time and get close to nature.Meanwhile, they play an important role in the ecological system of a city. The parks can add greenbelts to a city, increase the humidity, and also make a city more beautiful.6)Do you think every city and town should have parks and public gardens?Yes, it would be a good idea to build parks and public gardens in cities and towns. That will improve the environment quality of the city or town. On the other hand, since the parks can provide places to relax or do exercises, the quality of people’s life will also be improved accordingly.。

Let's talk about your hometown or village. What kind of place is it?My hometown is a small place, just outside of Beijing. It takes about an hour to reach/get to there. The people there are mostly farmers, but a lot of the young people work in Beijing. It's a uiet place and I like it.6. Could you tell me something about your hometown?a. Well, it's quite big and it's the capital of Shanxi province. The population's about 6 million and it's famous for its historic sites, especially for the Terracotta Warriors. Xi' an used to be the capital of China, and it's the beginning of the famous Silk Road.b. Okay. Well, my hometown is Beijing and I live just outside of it near the 4th ring road. As you probably know, Beijing's the political and cultural center of China, and it's quite a historical place as well. It's huge-about 12 or 13 million people live in it now-and it seems to be getting bigger every year.7. What kind of landscape surrounds your hometown?a. Harbin's right near the Song Hua Jiang River and it's kind of in a flat area, with mountains in the distance.b. Indio's a coastal city near the sea, so the main landscapes are the beaches and bays. There are also some nice hills nearby.8. What are the main tourist attractions in your hometown?There's the Great Wall and the Forbidden City. These are the two that are most well known. They are also symbols of China. They attract most visitors, but there are quite a lot of other famous sites as well.9. What are the people like in your hometown?They're usually very friendly, but a bit conservative. People still hold onto a lot of old customs and traditions, which is what I mean by conservative. But I think people there are very hospitable and kind. If you ask someone for directions, they'll always try to help you out, or find someone else who can.10. What places in your hometown do you like best and tell me why?I like the Temple of Heaven best because it's very beautiful. It has a lot of space and there are lots of really nice and old trees there. In the early morning, it's very peaceful. The older people practice their Tai-ji, while the younger children just run around and play. I like it there a lot.11. What places in your hometown might a visitor be interested to visit, and tell me why?I'd recommend the Great Wall, Summer Palace, and the Forbidden City. Those are the most famous places in the city, and I think they best represent Beijing.12. Do you like your hometown, and tell me why or why not?a. Yes. Although it may not have as many opportunities, I think my hometown is a warmhearted place and the people are not as selfish as they are in some of the bigger cities.b. To be frank, I don't really like my hometown that much. I mean, perhaps there are many people who are happy to live there, but I find that the pollution problem is just too bad, and to me itdoesn't seem like a good place to raise a family.13. Do you think your hometown is a good place for a young person to live?a. Yes I do, because it's got a lot of opportunities and the entertainment facilities are quite good. You can get a decent job here if you have some skills, and you can make a lot of good friends if you have a good personality.b. No, I think if you're young you'd be better off going to a bigger city with more opportunities. I think my hometown is more suitable for an older crowd, who enjoy a more peaceful life. Younger people get bored with the way things are here.14. What are the advantages and disadvantages of living in your hometown?I think the biggest advantage is that it's a place where you can find a good job with a good salary, if you try very hard. Also, the people are quite kind and generous. The main disadvantages are the traffic and pollution problems. If you stay in my hometown you will know that these are the two things that everyone here hates the most.Food questions20. What kind of food and dishes do people eat in your hometown?Most people in Changsha like spicy dishes because it's quite hot and humid there, so we need to eat a lot of chilies to help us adapt to the weather. Many people say that in all of China people in Changsha eat the spiciest food.21. What is the main food in China?Well, I'd say it's rice, but I think there are areas where rice is not that important. Each major area in China might eat rice in different quantities, but I think its still the biggest food and probably will always be the top one.22. In what ways has the diet of people in your country been changing? Well, we tend to eat more convenience foods now, especially fast food from restaurants like McDonalds and Chinese fast food places. Also, I'd guess we are now eating a lot of dishes regularly that we thought were big luxuries about 20 years ago.23. How has your diet changed?I don't think it has changed that much. I still eat the same things as I ate when I was a child.I guess the main change is that I have more time and money to go out for dinner. Festival Questions24. Tell me what's the biggest traditional festival in your country.Definitely the Spring Festival. I suppose it's somewhat like Christmas is in western countries. Spring Festival is the only time when all families gather together and stores and business are closed for several days.25. What do you do during the Spring Festival?I usually go back to my hometown and spend a week in my parents' home. We eat delicious food, visit family and friends, and watch TV. I also like to try and contact my high school friends and see how they're doing and what they're up to. We give each other presents and we buy ourselves new clothes to wear for the New Year.26. Can you describe one of the main festivals celebrated in your country? National Day, which is on October 1st, is a big holiday. We get three days off and there are a lot of fireworks displays. There are large flower pictures and other types of flowers decorating the city, and some of the larger cities hold parades.Changes Questions27. What changes have taken place in your hometown in the last 20 years? Well, I'm pretty young, but may parents always complain that my hometown's traffic is much worse, and they say that prices are a lot higher. But I think on the positive side, lifeis better, houses are in better condition and there are much better shops and cleaner conditions in the restaurants.28. Has your life changed in the last 10 years, and if so, in what ways?I think my life has changed. It's a bit more comfortable than it used to be, because my parents have more money than they used to have. I think I am a bit more responsible than I used to be, and am not quite as carefree.29. Is there anything you'd like to change in your life?Yes, my dependence upon my parents. Right now I'm quite dependent on them for money, so I hope I can be more independent in the future and one day be able to support them instead of their always supporting me.30. 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, soI'm grateful that I have a better life than my parents dig. I appreciate their hard work to get us to this point in our lives.31. Has tourism changed China very much?Yes, very much in the last 10 years. Each year we are getting more tourists coming toChina since the open door policy. People see more foreigners, and are used to the sight of them now. China is becoming more cosmopolitan, and people are getting to know more about the outside world.32. Has the transport changed over the past 20 years in China?Yes, a lot. We used to have very few bus lines years ago. Most people would use their bikes to get to and from places in the city. But now in big cities there are more bus lines, so it's a lot more convenient. Some cities also have subway lines, and that makes things faster. There are also more taxis in cities, and more people are using them as a mode of transportation.Travels and Holiday Questions33. Do you enjoy traveling?Yes, very much. I've been to most of the major cities in China, and I've also traveled to Thailand and Singapore. I think the more I travel, the more I want to travel. I just like seeing how other people live, and it's really amazing to learn about differentcu1tures-much more exciting than just reading about them in a textbook.34. What do you usually do in your holidays?During my holiday, I try to catch up with friends and go out together somewhere. That's the only time I can relax and do something I enjoy. Other than that, it's really difficult because I am always busy with my work, and sometimes I have to work overtime.35. Is there anywhere you would particularly like to visit on your holidays? Where and why?Yeah, I guess the best places to me are beaches. You see, I really like beaches because I just like watching the water come in and I love riding up and down the waves as they come into the shore. So places like Qingdao and Dalian are great places to me.Yes, I'd love to visit Xinjiang if I have a chance. Xinjiang is in the western part of China. The people there are mostly minorities, and I've seen the landscape in some pictures. It's incredible. If I travel to Xinjiang, I'll take a train so that I can see the landscape throughout the journey.36. Let's talk a little about traveling and transport. For a long trip, how do you prefer to travel?In my country, if it's a long trip, I prefer taking a train. Not only is it more economical, but also the time has shortened tremendously in the past few years. Air travel is more expensive, and I don't think its worth the extra cost.Transportation Questions37. Which type of transportation do you usually use in your hometown?I use the bicycle. It's fast and cheap and I can always trust it to get me places in the same amount of time.38. Which type of transportation do you prefer for traveling around?Trains are better because they don't encounter any traffic jams, whereas sometimes in the bus, we get stuck in traffic. Also, it is always difficult to get on buses during peak hours, whereas with a train you have a better chance of getting a seat during peak hours.39. What's the traffic situation like in your hometown?It's quite bad now, and I think it's getting more and more serious. The big problems are too many cars and not enough space. I think that building more roads sometimes just adds to the problem because people just buy more cars.Accommodations Questions40. Tell me about the kind of accommodations you live in?In my country, I live in a two-bedroom apartment with my parents. The apartment's not big, but we've made it very comfortable to live in. We live on the third floor, and there's no lift in our apartment. The highest floor is the sixth floor, so whoever lives on the sixth floor has to climb up and down every day.41. What are the advantages and disadvantages of the kind of housing you live in?Let me think. The biggest advantage? I guess it would be the convenience of it. I can do anything I want. As for the biggest disadvantage, some people might say the space, but I think the biggest disadvantage of living in a flat is that you never really get to know your neighbors.42. Which do you prefer, a flat or a house?Well, it depends on the condition that they are in. I'd probably have to say a flat, because you don't have to worry so much about maintaining it.43. Which floor do you live on, and what are the advantages and disadvantages of living on that floor?I live on the 1st floor. The advantage is that it's easier to get to, because you don't have to climb any steps. The bad thing is that it's a bit noisier, although we don't have to put up with too much noise from downstairs, since there is no downstairs!Family Questions44. Can you tell me something about your family?I have 3 brothers and no sisters. Both of my parents are still alive, and are still working. My grandparents on my father's side are both alive too, though my mother's parents have already passed away. I am also married...I got married 2 years ago.45. What do your family members do for a living?My father's retired, and my mother's still working as a nurse at the Xie He hospital. My father used to be a city inspector. I have no brothers and sisters.46. What do you and your family like to do together?I guess we mainly just talk about a lot of things and then watch TV together. My parents and I like to visit people together. Sometimes we go shopping together, but to tell you the truth I prefer doing that by myself.47. Do you prefer big families or small families? What do you think are the advantages of big families and small families?Well, big families are probably good for the children, because there are so many people to play with. But I think that big families also create a big burden for the parents and it's difficult for each child to receive the attention he or she deserves.Studies Questions (Academic Module Students)48. What is your major?I major in Accounting, which is part of the School of Business at my university. I mainly study the international accounting system as it relates to foreign trade.49. Why did you choose your major?Because I've always enjoyed working with computers, and I was always good at math and logic. I was fortunate to have a computer in my home when I was in high school, and I spent quite a lot of time just playing around on the computer. My parents bought me all sorts of books on computer programming, and I just started to read them and pick up the ideas in them.50. How do you like your major?a. I enjoy it, actually. I didn't know that much about it before I studied it, but I'm glad I chose it because it suits me a lot. My father actually suggested that I major in Accounting, because he thought that I'd enjoy it, too.b. I don't like it at all. I wish I could switch to a different one, but it's next to impossible to change majors. I just hope that when I get a job, I won't have to do a lot of work related to my major.51. What do you like most about your studies?I just like learning the principles, and I like solving problems successfully. I also like getting to know my classmates, and working with them.52. Is there anything you don't like about your studies?Generally I like my subjects, but I hate the examination system. There are too many examinations, 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 time at school.53. How do you like your life in the People's University?A．I don't like it very much. The dormitory's very crowded, the food is tasteless and my teachers aren't very inspiring. When I was a high school student, I was looking forward to university life so much.I'm quite disappointed, because it's really not what I expected.B．I like it a lot. Sometimes it is a little hard to live in the university, but I have made many good friends and I enjoy my major. It was hard at first to live apart from my parents, but I think that it has been a good change for me. I am much more independent and more able to deal with troubles on my own. My courses are mostly interesting too, so I'm glad that I chose the major I did.54. What do you think of the training you got in the university?a. I think most of my courses will be helpful in the future. My university has tried very hard to keep up to date with the latest developments in our field. There were some compulsory classes that I didn't like, such as politics and history, but overall, I think I was provided with a pretty good education. I don't think it's possible to learn everything you need to know in a future career, but I'm satisfied my courses have given me a good start.b. I don't think it was very good. There were some compulsory classes that I had no interest in. Also, our facilities were not very modern, so there were many things we couldn't do.55. How was your high school experience?I had a good high school experience because I was at a good school, and I made so many good friends there. I think I was lucky to have good teachersI think my high school experience was not a happy one because I seemed to always be under a lot of pressure, and for some reason I always seemed to have bad luck. When I got to University my luck started to improve.Work Questions56. Where do you work?I work in the main office of Motorola. It's near the Lufthansa Centre, by the third ring road and Liangmahe road in Beijing. I've been there since 1985.57. When do you go to work everyday?I am required to get to work at 9:00 o'clock, but sometimes I get there at 8:00 o'clock, or even earlier.58. How do you get to work?I drive a car. I own a Santana car, and each morning I have to fight through the traffic. Sometimes I wonder if having a car is really worth it.59. What do you do for a living?I'm an engineer. But my day-to-day work involves quite a lot of management. In fact, I'm in charge of the Beijing branch of Motorola, and have a dozen or so engineers working under me to handle the technical side of the work.60. What are some of your responsibilities? I mean, what does your job involve?I'm a sales manager. I'm in charge of overseeing sales operations for all of northern China, including Beijing. I have about 40 employees under me who are the regional sales representatives.61. Tell me about a typical day at work. What do you do on a daily basis?Most of the time, I sit behind a desk and answer phone calls. It's not a very active job, but I do enjoy it most of the time, except when I get a phone call from a very angry customer. Sometimes, they just want to shout at someone, and because I'm the first one to answer the phone, I get the full vent of their anger.62. How do you like your job?I enjoy it very much. It does have its ups and downs, but really it's quite a good job. I enjoy the people I work with too, which really can make or break a job. We work very well together and can trust each other to do our fair share.63. What do you like most about your job?A．My job is challenging and interesting, and I think that the best thing about it is the satisfaction I get from solving problems. Each time I manage to make things go smoothly, I get a great sense of satisfaction.B．I guess I like the pay. I know that sounds cold, but in fact my job is very routine and so I just feel that at least the pay gives me some satisfaction.64. What don't you like about your job?a. I think the worst part of the job is all the unnecessary bureaucracy that exists to do everything. I jut wish that there could be simpler routines and not so many steps to everything.b. I think the worst part of my job is the long hours that I'm sometimes required to work. I think it should be designed so that I can be allowed to go home on time every night.65. Tell me something about your job?Well, I'm a French teacher. I teach undergraduate students who are majoring in French. I've been working for about 10 years already, teaching a whole variety of courses over the past 10 years.66. Which part of the day do you like best?Going home from work! Well actually I should say stepping into my flat and greeting my baby daughter who is now about 2 years old.67. What made you decide to get into this field?I didn't really plan to be a teacher at first, but my parents encouraged me to go into teaching. At first I really hated it, but after a while I got used to standing in front of a room full of students. I enjoyed my classes and the challenges of teaching, so that's when I knew that teaching was the right profession for me.Hobbies and Spare Time68. What kind of hobbies do you have?I'm a big basketball fan, even though I'm not very good at playing basketball myself. I love to watch the NBA on TV whenever I get a chance. I also play ping-pong and volleyball whenever I can.69. How did you become interested in your hobby?Since I was young, my father has always involved me in different activities. My father is a ping-pong coach in a high school. So I always have a chance to follow him when he coached. When I was in the school, I got a chance to play with other students in other sports. So that's how I developed an interest in different sports.70. What do you do in your spare time?I like to play on the computer and surf the Internet. Once I get on the Internet, I find that time really passes very quickly. Before I know it, several hours have passed and my back and neck are aching. I also like to go for walks and read novels on ancient Chinese history.71. Do you like to be with a group of people or alone when you're free?I like being with a group of people. It's livelier and I feel more at ease, especially when I feel that my friends are also having a good time.72. How do you spend your weekends?I usually sleep in on Saturday morning if I can, study in the afternoon in the library, and go out with friends in the evening. On Sundays, I like to go shopping and just spend time walking around outside if the weather is nice. If I don't have much money, I still like to go window-shopping, and I get almost as much pleasure out of that!73. How do you spend your free time?I attend training courses in the evenings. However, as a mother, I also take my son somewhere at the weekend. For example, I may drive to the suburbs or the countryside around Beijing and go fishing, swimming and mountain climbing. I enjoy family life very much.74. What kinds of things do you like doing when you're not working?I'm kind of an indoor type of person, so I guess I like reading most. I'm interested in reading all kinds of books and newspaper or magazine articles, especially those on current issues. I just want to be informed of what's going on in the world.75. Do you like doing these things with a group of friends or by yourself?I prefer being with my friends and family. I'm kind of an outdoor type. I like to go swimming or play badminton with my family or friends during weekends or holidays. If I have a longer vacation, I usually travel to further away places all over the country.Reading76. What kinds of books do you like to read in your spare time?I like reading biographies of interesting people. I like these because they teach me something and also I find that other people's lives are sometimes even stranger than the lives of people in fictional stories77. Do you like reading books and newspaper?Yes, I like to read the 21st Century and the China Daily. I usually read as much as I have time for, which is sometimes quite a lot. Both of these newspapers are in English, and I find that it really is a good way for me to practice my English.78. Where do you like to read books?I suppose it depends on the book. If it's just a normal novel, then I guess I'd rather read it at home in my room. But if it's a non-fiction, informational book I guess I'd rather read it in a library.79.Do you discuss the books you read with friends?Yeah, if there's something interesting in them. For example some of the things people say in the biographies make good quotes and I like talking about these people to others.80. Is reading popular in your country with young people?No, I'd say that it's getting less popular. There are just so many other things to do that we don't really have to rely on books that much for entertainment. I think TV is the main reason. Is just more efficient and easier on the brain to watch a show than read a book.Sports81. What is your favourite sport?My favourite sport is basketball. I've been playing it regularly for about a year, andI'm quite crazy about it now.82. Why do you like it so much?Basketball is fast and it's a bit more exciting than playing other sports like football. I love the NBA, so that also makes me more interested in the sport as well.83. What sports are played in your country?Ping-pong and football are probably the most popular sports. China has a very large following of football fans. Especially now that China has qualified for the World Cup, we've become quite crazy about football.84. What is the most popular sport in your country?I'd have to say that football's really the most popular sport in China. There are literally millions of crazy football fans. Whenever there's a match on TV between China and another country, you can hear loud cheers and shouts all around the city whenever China scores a goal, and loud groans and moans when the other country scores.85. What are the sports facilities like in your hometown?Beijing has a lot of modem indoor facilities offering bowling, tennis, swimming, and other things. But, it's too expensive for most Chinese, and you have to belong to the club in order to use the facilities. There aren't very many sporting facilities that are free and open to the public. Most of the indoor facilities require you to be a member. The outdoor fields are open for anyone to use.Films and TV86. Do you often go to the cinema/theatre?a. Yes. On Friday nights, I usually go and watch whatever's playing. It's kind of a family tradition that I started when my son was young.b. No. I'm not really interested in the theatre. I'd much rather read newspapers and watch TV than pay for the theatre.87. Which cinema do you often go to?There's a cinema just around the corner from my home. It's called the Poly Plaza Cinema. It's probably one of the largest cinemas in Beijing, so they always play the most modem films. And, the ticket price is still fairly reasonable.88. What kind of films do you like?I definitely like comedies best. I don't see why I should pay money to be sad or scared, so I really don't like sad films or horror films at all. I just like to laugh, and I like movies that can put me in a good mood.89. Who's your favorite film star? Can you describe him/her to me?I like Leonardo di Caprio. I first saw him when he starred in Titanic. He's very handsome...blonde hair, blue eyes. He has this look about him that makes him seem very sad, but at the same time hopeful. I have his posters all over my room at home.90. Do you often watch TV? What's your favorite program?a. No, I hardly watch TV at all. I don't find most programs interesting. I think it's just a waste of time to watch TV.b. Yes, I like watching the news and I enjoy watching some of the serial TV shows that come on. But I have to keep up with them, which is a bit hard since I don't have a lot of time to watch them these days.Music91. How often do you listen to music?Everyday. As soon as I get home I usually play something. I've also got a Walkman that I use, and so I often put it on while traveling on the bus because I can't stand all the noise of the traffic.92. What kind of music do you like?Definitely classical music. I have nearly every famous classical work ever recorded. I could sit for hours in a room with my stereo turned up, just listening to classical music. I've。

My family name is Huang, and my given name is Qi Guang.2. And what shall I call you?Most people call me Xiao Huang.3. Can I see your identification please?Yes, here it is.4. Does your name have any special meaning?a. Yes. My family name "Huang" means yellow. My given name has two parts. The first part "Qi" means something like enlightenment or the start. The second part "Guang" means light. It was given to me by my grandfather. Actually, all the boys of my generation in my family have the character "Qi" in their names.b. The first part of my name means "bright" —— as in light. The second part means "true" or "truth". Taken together, my namemeans "Bright Truth". My grandmother gave this name to me.5. What's the literal translation of your name?Well, Huang literally translates as "yellow", and "Qi" means "enlightened or the start". "Guang" literally means "light or bright". So, taken together, mygiven namemeans something like "the beginning of light" or "beingenlightened with light' something to thator effect.6. Where do you come from?a. I was born in Xi'an, which is one of the major cities in China. It used to be the capital city at one point in China's history.b. I come from Shanghai, but I was born in Xi'an. My parents moved to Shanghai when I was just 4 years old, so I really don't know much about Xi'an, apart from occasional summer visits to see some good friends of the family. In fact, I don't have any relatives at all living in Xi'an.7. Where were you born?I was born in Xi'an, which is in the centre of China. It's a famous historic city, and is also well known to tourists who travel the Silk Road.8. Where about is your hometown?Xi'an is located in Shanxi Province, which is in central China.9. What kind of landscape surrounds your hometown?Xi'an is surrounded by plains, and is bordered by a plateau to the north and the Qinling Mountains to the south.10. Could you tell me something about your hometown?a. Hmm.. well, the population is about 6 million. It's famous for its historic sites, especially for the Terracotta Warriors. Xi'an was named the capital of China several times over many dynasties. Also, Xi'an is the starting point of the famous Silk Road, which was important in ancient times. The weather is extremely hot insummer, about 40 degrees Centigrade, and fairly coldin the winter, about 14 degrees Centigrade below zero.b. Okay. Well, first of all, my hometown is "X". I was born in the city, butmoved to the outskirts of the town when I was small. "X" is a fairly large city —a pretty important economic centre actually. It has a population of 3 million. It's pretty flat, and is situated right near a large lake.11. What are the main tourist attractions in Beijing?They are the Great Wall, the Forbidden City, Tiananmen Square, Temple of Heaven, and the Summer Palace. Beijing has a lot of other famous sites as well.12. What is the climate like in your hometown?It's generally very hot in summer, about 40 degrees Centigrade. In winter, it's cold —about minus 14 degrees Centigrade. The spring and autumn are both mild and pleasant, with temperatures ranging from 12 to 25 degrees Centigrade. Oh, and thesummer time is extremely humid as well. There are four seasons. Winter is cold and snowy; spring is short and rainy; summer is hot and humid; and autumn is beautiful.13. What are the people like in your hometown?They are usually very friendly and somewhat conservative. If you were to visit Xi'an, you'd soon notice that the people still retain many ancient customs and traditions, which is what I mean by conservative. You'd also notice that people there are very helpful. If you ask someone for directions, they will try to help you out, or find someone else who can help you.14. What are the differences in accent between the people of your hometown and Beijing?a. In (name of hometown), we pronounce (a word) like (hometown's pronunciation), but in Beijing, they say (Beijing's pronunciation).b. There are quite a few differences between my hometowndialect and Beijing dialect. I can't even describe them. When I speak in my local dialect, people in Beijing have no idea what I'm saying.c. Well, you know Beijing dialect usually has an "errr" added to a lot of words. We don't do that in my hometown. Also, some of the tones are different, and thereare slight differences in pronunciation. In Beijing, people might say "shi" meaning "ten", but in my hometown, we say "si". Those are the main differences.d. In my hometown, if we want to say "a little", we say "yi dian dian". But in Beijing, they say "yi diar". The accent in Beijing has a very strong "rrr" soundto the end of words. We don't have that at all in my hometown. And, I found it hard to get used to at first when I came to Beijing.15. What kind of food and dishes do people eat in your hometown?Definitely jiaozi or dumplings. My province is famous for its vinegar, which is used when we eat dumplings.16. Tell me about what's the biggest traditional festival in your country.Definitely the Spring Festival. I suppose it's somewhat like Christmas in western countries. Spring Festival is the only time when all families gather together and stores and business are closed for several days.17. What do you do during the Spring Festival?I usually go back to my hometown and spend a week in my parents' home. We eat delicious food, visit family and friends, and watch TV. I also like to try and contact my high school friends and see how they're doing and what they're up to. We give each otherpresents and we buy ourselves new clothes to wear for the new year.18. Can you describe one of the main festivals celebrated in your country?National Day, which is on October 1st, is a big holiday. We get three days off and there are a lot of fireworks displays. There are large flower pictures and other types of flowers decorating the city, and some of the larger cities hold parades.19. What are some customs in your country that I should know about?China has a great number of customs. Let me tell you something about friendship. Really good friends will always help each other. I can go to a friend's home any time of the day, and he will drop what he is doing and welcome me. It might sound strange to you, because I know that in the West, people usually schedule appointments with each other in advance. But, our friendships in China are very strong and deep, and it would be unheard of not to drop what you are doing and invite a friend in.21. What is the weather like in Beijing?There are four seasons. Winter is cold, dry and windy, with a bit of snow. Spring is short and wet. Summer is hot and humid, with temperatures as high as 30 degrees Centigrade. It's pretty miserable in the summer unless you have air conditioning.Fall is probably the best season — it's very comfortable —not windy, not cold, not humid.22. How do you compare the climate in Beijing with that in your hometown?It's about the same, except that we get a lot more snow in my hometown than we get in Beijing. I suppose it has something to do with the geography of the two cities.23. What places in Beijing do you like best? Why?I like the Temple of Heaven best because it's very beautiful. The park around it is very spacious and is filled with large gingko trees and some very old trees. Also, in the early morning, it's very peaceful. The older generations are practicing their Tai-ji, while the younger children are running around and playing.24. What places in Beijing should a foreigner visit? Why?I would recommend the Great Wall, the Summer Palace, Temple of Heaven, and the Forbidden City. Those are the most famous places in the city. Of course, there are many other places that have less historic significance, but those four places are really worth seeing.25. What are the major social problems in Beijing? How can they be solved?There are a lot of people who have recently been laid off work. They have little income and many have a family to support.I think they should be given a chance to get another job —maybe by giving them more training or something like that. Perhaps if the government provided a short-term vocational training course to people who have been laid off ... that would help with the unemployment problem.26. What is the biggest problem China faces?Overpopulation. Even though China has the one-child policy, it still has a huge population. The government wants to provide food and education for everyone, but they haven't yet attained their goal. Many of China's problems stem from overpopulation.27. What places do you recommend a foreigner to visit in your hometown and why?I'm from Xi'an. I think the Terracotta Warriors is really worth seeing. It is the tomb of Qinshihuang, the first emperor of ancientChina as a unified country. There are thousands of Terracotta soldiers buried together with the emperor's body in the tomb. It looks really magnificent.28. Which city, in your opinion, is the best city in China?Beijing, because it's the capital of China and has a very rich culture. In addition, Beijing is more beautiful than many other cities, because it's the showcase of China. A lot of money has been invested in Beijing and it is a very interesting place to visit.29. Has tourism changed China very much?Yes, very muchin the last 10 years. Each year we are getting more tourists coming to China since the adoption of the open door policy. People see more foreigners and are used to the sight of foreigners compared to years ago. This is true in big cities like Shanghai, Beijing, and Guangzhou etc. China is becoming more cosmopolitan and people are getting more knowledge of the outside world.30. Has the transport changed over the past 20 years in China?Yes, very much indeed. Weused to have very few bus lines years ago. Most people would use their。
