新视野第三册英语口语答案
1.Do you have a good memory? Why do you say so?No, I don’t think I have a good memory. Because I think having a good memory means learning everything quickly . People who have a good memory can remember things clearly. When they have had a class , they can remember the important points what teacher have emphasized. What’s more , They are also good at reciting, they can recite books well and easily . So they have good performance in study. At last, people who have good memories means they can arrange everything perfectly, everything in their mind .But I don’t have these talents. I can’t learn things quickly, I can’t remember things clearly , either. When I am in junior middle school , I read my lessons many times until I can recite them completely. I usually forget things in my dormitory. To avoid forgetting important things, I have a note book and write everything on it.. after all ,my bad memory haven’t had any influence on my life. It makes me study hardly and have a colourful life.2.What measures would you like to take to improve your memory?To improve my memory, I will make a detailed plan and obey it.First, I will carry a notebook. I will write down the important things on it and refer to it to see if I have forget something important.Secondly, I will ask favors of my roommates. They will remind me of what I have forget to do.Thirdly, I will take exercise regularly to keep my brain active. What’s more ,taking exercise is also good for our health.Fourthly, when I am sleepy, I will go to the garden and breathe the fresh air, which is really good to relax our mind. As we all know , getting plenty of sleep is the best way to rest our brain.Lastly , Success belongs to the persevering . I will keep working hard to improve my memory.3.What do you think are the qualities of a good teacher and a good student?A good teacher have many fine qualities. First , They respect their student. When the students make mistakes, they will talk to them instead of swear at them. They will tell the students where have they gone wrong and how to make up the mistakes. What’s more, a good teacher will make friends with their students. They can communicate with each other freely. Topics are variedwithout limited.Well as a good student, he or she should work hard on their study. This is the basic standard of a good student. Secondly, they should respect their teachers and classmates. What’s more , they will be enthusiastic to help each other. Last but not the least, a good student should be innovative.4. Have you ever skipped a class? Why?Yes ,I have skipped a class. Because I have to take a driving test.5. What do you think are the important factors to make a successful marriage?A successful marriage is making up of many aspects. First, the couples should respect each other. How to respect each other? Having trust in each other is the most important thing. When the husband return home late some day, the wife shouldn’t have a distrust of the husband without an evidence. Second ,the couples should care for each other. When one of them is tired or ill, the other one should attend the sick one. Third, both of the couples have to learn to look the other’s parents as their own parents. Last but not the least, the couples should always talk to each other. By communicating to each other they can solve the problems at once.As far as I am concerned, if the couples really love each other, there is no difficulty solving any problems.6. What do you think are the reasons for a divorce?There are many couples divorce nowadays. Why do they divorce? I think there are three main reasons. First , the couples have different disposition. Any shortcomings of disposition can be forgiven when they first fall in love with each other. But things get worse when they get married and live together. They can’t put up with each other. Second , different people have different living styles. When two sweethearts become husband and wife, they will live together. That’s the begin of contradiction. The couple most likely go to divorce if one of them can’t bear the other’s living style. Third , some couples divorce because of financial problems. When the family become so poor that the couple can’t live together, they always choose to get divorced. Last but not theleast, I think the most probable reason for a divorce is the couples don’t love each other as deeply as they can solve any problems.7. What do you prefer: a big fish in a small pond or a small fish in a big pond in the case of job seeking?As far as I am concerned, I prefer a small fish in a big pound to a big fish in a small pound. A big fish in a small pound can be number.1. and they can do many things easily. But the restrictions will limit its growth. It can only remain the same and can’t become bigger.Well a small fish in a big pound is a different thing. The small fish have to work hard to become stronger to survive in the big pound. In the big pound , there are many great fishes or some other things. The small fish have many teachers to learn from. In this environment, the small fish can develop fast and become a great one. Even it can’t become a great fish, it will become better than the big fish in a small pound.I want to be a small fish in a big pound. Although it is dangerous , I also want to work hard to fight for my own life.8. What courses are useful for one’s job? How do you prepare in college for your future career?We stay in the university and have courses everyday. As we all know ,we study so many years to find a good job when we graduate. But do you know what courses are useful for our job.First, we spend many years on studying English. English is surely important for our jobs in the future. We can’t find a good job without an English certificate. What’s more , your English must be really good if you want to work in a foreign company. Second ,math is used in everywhere ,we should learn math good. Third, we need to learn more practical courses. Because most of the time we stay in the school and have little connect with the society. We should spend more time learning the society.As far as I am concerned, to find a good job in the fture, I have a long wayito go. On one hand ,I should work hard to won a better achievement which is the base to find a good job. On the other hand, I have to learn to innovate. Innovation is a big advantages in job market nowadays. I think I can find a good job in the future.9. If you wanted to start a business, which factors would you consider? Running a business successfully needs lots of preparation. You should consider many factors to solve the problems you likely meet. So what factors would you consider? Listen to me first.First ,you need a lot of bright people. People with special skills is the most important factor to start a business. These people have good ideas and good qualities. They can help you achieve you goals.Second ,you need to cling to your purpose. You can’t give up when you meet a difficulty. If you want to be successful at last . you should hold on till end. You should believe in the words: He who laughs at last laughs best. Third, you should study everyday. Know ledge is the power. Reading books and newspapers everyday. Talking with people of wide information. You can learn a lot from them. Plenty of knowledge may help you a lot in the future. Last but not the least, you should be a kind and stay on the right side of the law.10. Would you like to be a boss or a well-paid employee? Why?Would you like to be a boss or a well-paid employee? Different people have different ideas. The two jobs both have their advantages and disadvantages. However I want two be a boss. These are my reasons.First, as a boss I will work for myself. I can make decisions which is the most important thing. If I work for others. I have to obey the command. I can’t refuse to follow the order even the boss is making wrong decisions. Second, when I work for myself I will always approach things enthusiastically.I will set goals and work hard to reach them.Third, I can learn much more things as a boss. If I am a employee I have towork in the company for the boss. But as a boss I will meet different people and go to kinds of places. I will hold negotiations with many people. I think be skilled in negotiation in the future.Last, I like a challenging life. Apparently be a boss is more challenging thana employee.11. What should be done to help unemployed people?Unemployed people don’t have any income and they can’t provide food and clothes for their family. This situation may lead to divorce. What’s more , people without a permanent job is very likely to do something that is illegal. This phenomenon will have a very bad influence on the public stability. So what should we do to help unemployed people?First, the government should carry out some policies to help the unemployed people find good jobs.Second , the unemployed people should learn new skills to develop themselves. New skills are very useful advantages in job market.Third, the company should provide more jobs for the unemployed people.Last but not the least, we shouldn’t look down upon the unemployed people. Instead of laugh at them we can support them find jobs which are really fit them.12. What are the causes for juvenile delinquency?There are more and more juvenile cases nowadays and juvenile are showing a tendency to increase. Juvenile delinquency is becoming serious social problem in our country. Do you know what are the causes for juvenile delinquency? Here are my opinions.First ,I believe nobody born bad. Everyone is kind and have the possibility becoming great people. I think the living environment is a very important factor for a child. If he live in a poor village and a poor family he is likely have no chance studying in school.Second , parents are children’s first teachers. They teach children talk ,walk ,etc. what’s more, children’s qualities are also come from theirparents. The son is very probably honest if he has a father who never lies. Third, friends have a big influence on children. A boy play with a well-educated friend always grows better than another plays with bad friend. Children always learn from each other.Fourth, teachers play an important role in children’s life. A good teacher pay more attention to student’s growth will help more students success.。

新视野视听第三册口语题目参考Unit 011. What factors may weaken one's memory?It is often reported that long-term poor nutrition may affect the functioning of the brain, thus damaging both the long-term and short-term memory. Also harmful to one's memory is lack of water. Elderly people need plenty of water to guarantee their memory works. A third factor is lack of sleep. Without enough sleep, one may feel tired and have difficulty concentrating, not to mention learning things by heart.2. Can you describe some possible advantages of having a poor memory?A poor memory may have some advantages. With the passage of time, the sad memories will fade. Those with a short memory tend to recover faster than those with a tenacious memory. For the same reason, forgetful people may be more ready to forget their daily worries and forgive others for their offenses. With a less retentive mind, they may enjoy life more.3. What can you do to make sure all your relatives and friends are on the guest list for your birthday party?First of all, I would check my address book and tick thenames of those I intend to invite. Then, to avoid possible omissions, I would ask some of my close relatives, friends and colleagues to look at my initial list of names. They might suggest one or two additions. In this way, I can reduce the chances of missing those I should invite.4. How do you ensure important phone numbers are always at your fingertips?I usually remember my close relatives and friends' phone numbers through frequent use. But my memory cannot always be trusted. In this case, a mobile phone is extremely useful because it can store many phone numbers. But when the batteries run down, the mobile phone can't help either. So I also rely on my address book. To play safe, I prefer to have two address books. I take one with me and leave the other at home. Thus I can always find the number I need.My memory is fading /my mind has gone blankEvery forgets something sometimes/one thing or another thing from time to timeHave a powerful memoryWhat’s wrong with my memoryUnit 021. What subject do you like best? What made you like it: your personal interests, the teacher, the practical applications of the course in future, etc.?I like physics best, though many classmates find it hard. A lot of factors led me to like this subject. As early as in high school, I was amazed at the laws scientists like Newton and Einstein discovered. What I they found out changed the world. Luckily, my physics teacher at this university is excellent. He is knowledgeable and patient. Just because of him, I'm willing to spend lots of my spare time on this subject. Most importantly, what I have learned from the physics course will be of great help in landing a good job. Nowadays many companies think physics majors often have a solid academic foundation and can easily adapt themselves to a wide variety of positions. 2. Do you think it is necessary for some Chinese children to do a lot of difficult math problems for the Olympic Math Competition?Some parents believe that by doing a lot of difficult math problems, their children will have a solid foundation in math. Some parents even believe that trying to solve hard mathproblems will promote the growth of children's brains and help develop their logical reasoning ability and concentration, which will facilitate learning in other areas. On the other hand, many people believe that it is unnecessary and unnatural for children to study difficult [math problems. Some people even believe that strict math training harms children's moral and physical development. Fierce competition may dampen the spirit of teamwork, which is so important in the contemporary world.3. What study habits seem to be common among successful students?Many top students seem to have these good study habits: They tend to have a strong sense of time and organize their time well. They may draw up their study plan well in advance. While studying, they check whether they are working ahead of schedule or lagging behind it. They usually work in a systematic way. Before class, they preview the text to get some idea about what the teacher is going to say and which part of the text is difficult. In class, they listen attentively, take notes of the main points of the lecture, and ask questions when they don't understand. After class, they review what they have learned. By going through the text and the notes, they can remember important information.4. How to prevent students' cheating in examinations?First, the administrators must adopt severe measures to punish that disgraceful practice. In the case of serious offenders, it is not enough just to give them an F. They must repeat the whole year, or even be expelled from school. Second, it is more important for teachers to enforce the university rules strictly. When they see students cheating, they should not turn a blind eye to it.Unit 031. What do you think are the things that contribute to a successful marriage?The success of a marriage is due to many factors, of which love is obviously the most important one. Other [factors, which are not entirely unrelated to love, include shared values and interests, mutual understanding, | commitment, effective communication, similar educational background, equal economic status, physical fitness, etc. With the same values and moral standards, friends may develop into lifelong partners. After marriage, there needs to be a commitment to one another, and to the well-being and development of the family. Similar educational background and intelligence levelsare also considered important by some people. They believe that only with mutual appreciation and understanding can the couple get along easily and happily.2. Why do people get divorced? Can you guess some of the reasons?Sometimes it is because the couple did not really understand each other before the marriage, as love was [blind at that time. After marriage, they see each other's shortcomings more clearly. When disappointment grows beyond control, divorce becomes inevitable. Sometimes it is because one of the couple has changed after the marriage. For example, after the husband is promoted to a leading position, he may have a hectic |time all year round, with hardly any time left to be with his wife. Sometimes one of the couple has lost his or [her job and becomes irritable. Due to the continual quarrelling at home, the family breaks up.3. What do you think of the lives of single mothers?Most people look upon single mothers with sympathy. Single mothers have to support their children on their [own. They may find it difficult to provide their children with all the luxuries children of two-parent families enjoy. Worse still, they may be under great psychological pressure. Moreover, their children may develop a sense of inferiority. When they seeother children are bathed in the love of both parents, they may feel bitterly disappointed.4. What is your view of the fact that the wife's housekeeping duties remain the same even when she works outside? What could be the solution?If the wife works during the day just like the husband, then it is obviously unfair for the wife to shoulder all the housekeeping duties. If the husband can share the household chores with the wife, the love between them can be strengthened. Unfortunately, influenced by tradition, many men are unwilling to do housework, thinking it to be unmanly. If we want to change the situation, the media had better give more publicity to "model husbands" who assume a large part of those duties. Gradually, people may change their image of a husband who constantly sits in front of the TV, watching football games or international news. Also, the development of modern technology and the appearance of more modern conveniences will further lighten the housekeeping burden. IUS the problem of who should do the housework will become less important.Unit 041. What do you think people will choose: a low-paid jobone likes, or a boring well-paid job?I think many people prefer to find a job that they really like. After all, most people want to enjoy themselves rather than have plenty of money without a sense of achievement and happiness. On the other hand, some people may choose a well-paid job instead of a job close to their heart to earn more money. If one is in serious financial difficulty, one can hardly afford the luxury of a dream job. Money is the lop priority. 2. Do you think one's character is important in finding a job? Why or why not?I think it is. Although many employers lay emphasis on candidates' educational background and work experience, some believe that candidates' character is equally important for a successful career. In contemporary society, many projects are so large that they require the coordination of a group of people father than a single person's effort. Therefore, a good team player is often welcomed. Professionally skilled people may not be able to accomplish a large project if they are easily angered and cannot get along with their colleagues. If you want to assume a leading position, you should be firm on important issues while allowing your subordinates plenty of freedom. In fact it is becoming increasingly common for companies to test candidates' EQ (emotional quotient) beforethey decide to hire them.3. What courses are useful for one's job?In fact, all courses may turn out to be useful in our future careers. The basic courses we take in the first two wears of university lay a solid foundation for our future development. In the case of computer majors, for example, the math they have learned will enhance their ability for logical reasoning. The English courses I they have followed will help them read the literature in their fields with greater ease. Art courses may increase their sense of balance and beauty.However, the courses in their specialties are often of greater relevance and value for their career development. I For instance, computer majors may find courses such as programming, computer network, database, and CAD (Computer Aided Design) more closely related to their future work.4. What questions do you think are often asked in an interview? Why are they asked?To start with, the interviewers may ask you about your education. In this way they can gather information to see if you have acquired the basic knowledge required for the job you are applying for. Perhaps most of them will ask you about your work experience in this field to see if you have thenecessary skills for the job you have in mind. Usually employers do not like an entirely inexperienced employee. They may also ask about your character, weaknesses and strengths to find out what kind of person you are. They may even ask you something that is not directly related to the job in question. Your answers tend to show your intelligence level and communication skills.Unit 051. Do you want to be a boss who is starting a company or an employee with a high salary?Different people may have different choices. Some people may put a regular job above good pay for a variety of reasons. Employees usually know what they are supposed to do and have a fairly stable life. With a high-paying job, they and their families can live a comfortable life. When they have accumulated enough money, they can start a business when conditions are favorable. On the other hand, many people want to set up a business of their own right now. Indeed, launching a company involves a lot of effort. What is worse, there is risk. But they like challenges. By trying to establish a company, not only may they make lots of money, they can also develop their abilities to overcome difficulties.2. What kind of boss would you like to work for: one who is inefficient but kind, or one who is efficient but very strict with employees?Many people, if not most, prefer to work for a kind, good-natured boss. Under such a boss, they feel secure and happy. The boss won't scold employees simply because they have made a small mistake. He will also be generous. It is true that sometimes because of his lack of ability, his company may not reap huge profits, and employees can hardly get a raise. But happiness is surely more important than money. However, some people, including me, will choose to work for a boss who is capable but very strict with his subordinates. If the boss is capable, he will lead the company to one new height after another. When the company thrives, all employees will benefit. Even if the boss may give an employee a severe dressing-down for something he or she did, the employee can learn a lesson from the event. Under such a boss, employees can gain valuable experience, which may serve as a good foundation for them to start a business of their own in the future.3. Why do some people think sports clothes and shoes provide a good business opportunity? What age groups do you think the business people should target? Why?With more leisure time and money, many people pay more attention to their health and recreation. As a result, more and more people will engage in sports, and they will buy more fitness gear, including sports clothes and shoes. Obviously this provides a hot business opportunity. In my opinion, business people should target young people first. They are active and participate more in sports than other age groups. But business people should not neglect older people. After retirement, they often find their health on the decline, and therefore have the motivation for fitness exercises. As for middle-aged people, many of them are under such great pressure at work that they can hardly afford the time for sports. |4. If you wanted to start a business, which factors would you consider: your education and ability, your money, or the market? Why?If I wanted to launch a business, I would consider all of these factors, for they all play an indispensable role. First of all, I would consider my ability. Since I majored in biology, I would be cautious in starting a company to sell something I am not familiar with such as building materials or DVDs. With my educational background, I may find it easier to run a company selling bio-tech products. The next thing I would have o take into account, is the money available. Suppose theestablishment of a company required a capital of a million dollars, I would try to see whether I could get a loan. If not, I would give up the idea and try to set up a smaller service company that required less capital. Last but not least, I would survey the market to see if the products I planned to deal with could be sold. If they were unmarketable, I had better give up the idea of founding a company in this area. If they sold well, then I would go ahead.Unit 061. Why do you think some people smoke? What are the disadvantages of smoking?Some people think smoking makes them relax. Some people smoke just because all those around them smoke. Some believe that by passing cigarettes around, it will be easier for them to start a friendship. Others claim that smoking is a precondition for a booming tobacco industry, which in turn ensures a large tax income for the state. But I think those reasons, if we can call them reasons, are insignificant compared with the harm smoking brings. I Smoking is harmful to one's health. It can lead to many diseases. Long-term smoking may result in lung diseases, or even lung cancer. Also, some heavy smokers may suffer frombreathing difficulty, high blood pressure, heart trouble, amongst other diseases. It has been proved that even non-smokers who breathe in the smoke can develop health problems. Moreover, cigarettes cost money. Some chain smokers consume two packs of cigarettes a day. This can be an unnecessary financial burden on a family that is not rich.2. What do you think can be done to improve older people's lives if their children do not live with them?First of all, children should visit their parents from time to time. This is a sign of concern, which can be a great comfort to them. Even if people are terribly busy under the pressure of work, they can at least call their parents to say hello. Furthermore, children should provide their parents with what they need. If older people can get money or I other supplies on a regular basis, they may get a sense of security. Also, the government should establish more homes and organize more activities to meet the increasing I needs of an aging population. If some older people prefer to live at home, they should hire caregivers. In the light of their shortage of money, an expert has proposed a system under which aged people can mortgage their apartments to the bank in exchange for a monthly income. By the time they pass away, the apartments belong to the bank. But at least the old people enjoy a decentlife while they are alive.3. Why do some people become alcoholics? How can they solve their drinking problems?Some people drink because their parents drink a lot, so they follow suit. Some people pick up the habit of drinking because they feel lonely or bored, others drink when they are sad or angry, and still others drink to celebrate happy occasions. Gradually, they drink more and more until they are hooked on alcohol. To solve drinking problems, people should be informed about the dangers of too much alcohol consumption, such as high blood pressure, heart disease, liver trouble, and so on. It is also reported that alcohol can damage brain cells and memory. Under the influence of alcohol, one can hardly concentrate or think deeply, so their work efficiency drops. Worse still, drunks often cause traffic accidents or resort to physical violence. Moreover, one must have strong willpower to give up drinking. But unfortunately, few people are strong-willed enough to defeat alcoholism on their own. Often, they need external help from parents, spouses, friends, doctors or an organization like Alcoholics Anonymous.4. What should be done to help unemployed people?Before unemployed people find a job, their basic living standard should be met. They need subsidies from thegovernment to live a normal life, which includes money for food, clothes, shelter and transportation. It is also important for unemployed people to be trained for re-employment. The government should offer training programs to update their skills so that they will become competitive in the job market again.Unit 071. According to your experience, what damages are being done to the environment? sand stormLittering. Some people throw away paper, cigarette butts, empty cans or even batteries in public places or in scenic sites. Pollution. When households and factories dump sewerage and harmful substances into rivers and lakes, water pollution can be serious. Air pollution may worsen as the economy develops. If the smoke from factory chimneys does not meet environmental standards, it pollutes the air. Also, the increasing number of cars brings further deterioration to the quality of the air. The cigarettes people smoke also contribute to the pollution. Poisonous Substances. When we discard air-conditioners and refrigerators, we release poisonous substances like CFCs, which deplete the ozone layer or create a hole in the ozone layer. When you use aerosol spray on yourhair, you are spreading environmentally-damaging freon as well.2. Can you think of some measures to protect forests?I think the most important thing to do is to create a law to forbid the cutting of trees in certain areas. Even when timber is needed for construction, logging should be well planned. In addition to the law, we also need law enforcement personnel who will fine those who fell trees illegally. It is not enough to protect the existing forests. We must also plant trees to make new forests. We should also grow various types of trees to ensure bio-diversity. To make the afforestation program successful, the government should award those units and individuals that have made outstanding contributions.3. If a chemical plant has to dump a poisonous substance into the river, but its closing-down means that many workers will lose their jobs and the local economy will be affected, then what do you propose to do?In my opinion, the first step we can take is to introduce advanced ecological technology to make sure that the sewerage from the plant is properly treated before it is discharged into the river. Since some company managers are unwilling to spend money treating pollutants, they may dumpnoxious substances during the night. So it is necessary to set up a watchdog team to supervise the plant's sewerage treatment. If the plant fails to meet the ecological standards, we have no choice but to shut it down. After all, human life is more important than anything else. If the workers lose their jobs because of the close-down, the government can give them subsidies and run training programs so that they can find new jobs in other sectors of the economy. If the local economy is badly hit by the close-down, the central government can consider subsidizing the local government for a certain period of time until the jobless workers are re-employed.4. Which types of energy should we use: wood, coal, petroleum, water power, nuclear energy or solar energy? Give your reasons.In my opinion, we should try our best to avoid using wood and coal as fuel. The burning of wood creates air pollution. Moreover, trees cannot be reproduced easily. It takes dozens of years or even hundreds of years for a young tree to grow into a big tree. Similarly, coal burning pollutes the air. It would be even more difficult to reproduce coal. The formation of coal takes thousands of years. Nowadays, people use petroleum the most. Cars, ships, aircraft and many factories depend on it. It causes less pollution than coal and wood, but it is alsonon-renewable. To leave enough resources for future generations, we need sustainable development. We have to use those fossil fuels less and turn to other types of energy such as water power, nuclear energy and solar energy.Unit 081. Compare air and rail transport and discuss the advantages and disadvantages.It is obvious that air transport or air travel is fast. Within hours, a plane can carry passengers and cargo to a place, thousands of miles away. Business people can fly to a distant city, do business there, and fly back on (he same day. A train, on the other hand, goes at a slower speed. It may take you more than a day to travel to a faraway place in the country. A problem with plane is that it is incapable of transporting large quantities of freight. In this respect the train is superior. The train can carry more goods than the plane and other modes of land transport.2. Do you prefer to fly business class or economy class?I prefer economy class. Thrift is considered a traditional virtue in Chinese society, and most people do not want to waste money on something that is not absolutely necessary. Some people want to fly business class, for they feel morecomfortable in a bigger seat with a better choice of foods and drinks. But I don't think the small benefits are worth the high costs. However, in some cases, for example, when traveling with an important business partner, I might want to buy business class, or even first class tickets to show my company's financial strength and give him/her confidence in doing business with us.3 Do you wish to be a flight attendant? Why or why not?First, flight attendants often have ample opportunities to fly to different parts of the country or even of the world. Through their service, flight attendants interact with many passengers. As a result, they tend to develop good interpersonal skills, which will prove to be valuable in the future, even after they transfer to a different job. Last but not least, flight attendants are usually well paid. But there are some disadvantages as well. An obvious drawback is that, often, they cannot go back home everyday. This irregular pattern of life makes it difficult for them to stay with their families. What's more, some passengers can be rude and unpleasant. The most undesirable aspect of their job, however, is the danger of accidents. All the advantages of a flying career disappear in a crash.4. Many airline companies are lowering fares andmaking smaller profits. Give some of the possible reasons.Airfare used to be quite high, so the aviation industry was highly profitable. The economic benefits drew more companies into the market, which in turn led to more intense competition. To survive in it, airlines have had to cut prices, which means smaller profits. In recent years, fuel has become increasingly expensive, and this has cut further into airline companies' profits. With higher salaries for employees, airlines now have only small profit margins.Unit 091. Name some Western and Chinese festivals, and special days that seem to be especially important, and explain why they are importantThere are a number of Western festivals, such as Christmas, Boxing Day, Thanksgiving Day, New Year's Day, New Year's Eve, Halloween, Valentine's Day, Mother's Day, and Father's Day. There are also a number of traditional festivals in China, such as the Spring Festival (or the Chinese New Year), the Lantern Festival the Pure Brightness Festival (or Qingming Festival or the Tomb-Visiting Festival), the Dragon Boat Festival, the Mid-Autumn Festival, the Double-Ninth Festival(or the Seniors'Day), etc. Some Western holidays such as Mother's Day, Father's Day and Valentine's Day are also becoming popular in China. In the West, Christmas is obviously the most important festival since it involves a long holiday, and almost all the people celebrate it. In fact, it has become quite popular in many non-Western countries. In China the Spring Festival is clearly the most important traditional holiday, which lasts three days or more and most Chinese both at home and abroad celebrate it.2. Do you mink it is necessary for the Chinese to celebrate Christmas?I think we Chinese should pay more attention to traditional Chinese festivals such as the Spring Festival, the Lantern Festival and the Mid-Autumn Festival. Observance of those traditional holidays increases cohesion of the entire nation. If those traditional holidays should disappear, it would be a loss to Chinese culture and to world civilization as well. On the other hand, Christmas is a season for people to be jolly. It is also an occasion for people to express love and other pleasant feelings. When family members get together for a huge dinner, they have a sense of warmth and closeness. When children receive gifts, they are excited, and their happiness is infectious. As the world has become smaller throughglobalization, Christmas has become more popular in many non-Western countries.3. Why is Valentine's Day more popular in China now compared to it was decades ago?Since love is one of the most fundamental emotions, it certainly deserves a holiday. In fact, love is an eternal theme in novels, dramas and poems. People need a holiday to express their emotions. When people exchange cards and gifts on Valentine's Day, they express their affection for others and feel happy. The holiday seems to be especially important to young men and women. Therefore, young Chinese people have good reason to celebrate Valentine's Day. As China is gradually integrating with the rest of the world, why can't we celebrate Valentine's Day? Unfortunately, the traditional Chinese Lover's Day, which falls on the seventh day of the seventh lunar month, is largely neglected now, despite the interesting story of the meeting between the legendary Cowherd and Girl Weaver. Why hasn't the tradition been revived and made popular among young people?4. It is sometimes claimed that many festivals have been created just to encourage people to spend money. Do you agree?It is true that business people are seeking every。

新视野试卷三级试卷及答案
新视野试卷三级试卷及答案-CAL-FENGHAI.-(YICAI)-Company One1Text 1Some pessimistic experts feel that the automobile is bound to fall into disuse. They see a day in the not-too-distant future when all autos will be abandoned. Other authorities, however, think the auto is here to stay. They hold that the car will remain a leading means of urban travel in the foreseeable future.The motorcar will undoubtedly change significantly over the next 30 years. It should become smaller, safer, and more economical, and should not be powered by the gasoline engine. The car of the future should be far more pollution-free than present types.Regardless of its power source, the auto in the future will still be the main problem in urban traffic congestion （拥挤）. One proposed solution to this problem is the automated highway system.When the auto enters the highway system, retractable（可伸缩的）arm will drop from the auto and make contact with a rail, which is similar to those powering subway trains electrically. Once attached to the rail, the car will become electrically powered from the system, and control of the vehicle will pass to a central computer. The computer will then monitor all of the car's movements.The driver will use a telephone to dial instructions about his destination into the system. The computer will calculate the best route, and reserve space for the car all the way to the correct exit from the highway. The driver will then be free to relax and wait for the buzzer（蜂鸣器）that will warn him of his coming exit. It is estimated that an automated highway will be able to handle 10,000 vehicles per hour, compared with the 1,500 to 2,000 vehicles that can be carried by a present-day highway. (285 words)21. One significant improvement in the future car will probably be ________.A) its power source B) its driving systemC) its monitoring system D) its seating capacity22. What is the author's main concern?A) How to render automobiles pollution-free.B) How to make smaller and safer automobiles.C) How to solve the problem of traffic jams.D) How to develop an automated subway system.23. What provides autos with electric power in an automated highway system?A) A rail. B) An engine.C) A retractable arm. D) A computer controller.24. In an automated highway system, all the driver needs to do is ________.A) keep in the right laneB) wait to arrive at his destinationC) keep in constant touch with the computer centerD) inform the system of his destination by phone25. What is the author's attitude toward the future of autos?A) Enthusiastic. B) Pessimistic. C) Optimistic. D) Cautious.Text 2What should you think about in trying to find your careerYou are probably better at some school subjects than others. These may show strengths that you can use in your work. A boy who is good at mathematics can use that in an engineering career. So it is important to know the subjects you do well in at school. On the other hand, you may not have any specially strong or weak subjects but your records show a general satisfactory standard. Although not all subjects can be used directly in a job, they may have indirect value. A knowledge of history is not required for most jobs but if history is one of your good subjects you will have learned to remember facts and details. This is an ability that can be useful in many jobs. If you have had a part-time job on Saturdays or in the summer, think what you gained from it. If nothing else, you may have learned how to get to work on time, to follow instructions and to get on with older workers. You may have learned to give correct change in a shop, for example. Just as important, you may become interested in a particular industry or career you see from the inside in a part-time job.Facing your weak points is also part of knowing yourself. You may be all thumbs when you handle tools; perhaps you are a poor speller or cannot add up a column of figures. It is bitter to face any weaknesses than to pretend they do not exist. Your school record, for instance, may not be too good, yet it is an important part of your background. You should not be apologetic about it but instead recognize that you will have a chance of a fresh start at work. (303 words)26. Which of the following best sums up the first paragraph?A) The importance of doing well at school.B) Using school performance to help to choose a career.C) The importance of being good at all subjects.D) The indirect value of schoolwork.27. The writer thinks that for a student to have a part-time job is probably ______.A) a waste of time that could have been spent on studyB) useful for his future workC) a good way to earn extra moneyD) a good way to find out his weak points28. According to the passage, if a student's school record is not good, he ______.A) will be a complete failure in his future workB) will not be able to find a suitable jobC) will regret not having worked harder at schoolD) may do well in his future work29. Which subject is supposed to have no direct value for jot hunting?A) Mathematics. B) English. C) Technical Drawing. D) History.30. The whole passage centers on ______.A) choosing a career according to what one is skilled inB) acquiring knowledge by working hard at schoolC) finding one's strong and weak pointsD) developing one's abilities useful in school workText 3As a Canadian bilingual (双语的) teacher, I agree that the Canadian bilingual schools have been successful in producing functionally bilingual students. However, Mr. Whelpton's suggested condition that teachers in these schools must be fully bilingual may be unnecessary. For example, primary teachers can and do function with a smaller vocabulary than secondary teachers.Secondly, it is doubtful that students will use English because they "understand and accept the objective of making English the language of the classroom" which is a rather sterile motive. One reason that Canadian bilingual programs work is because of the commitment to Whole Language Learning, that is, children learn a language, (first or second), by using it to transmit (播送) or receive meaningful messages that are interesting, real and important. They want to make their needs and desires known and to understand the world around them. Bilingual programs integrate language and content in an activity-based, child-centred manner so that the child is motivated to use the second language as a tool to transmit and receive messages related to social and academic interests.Mr. Whelpton's third argument that all the students in one class need to be at approximately the same level of English proficiency (熟练) when they switch to English is unrealistic and unprofitable. How does a teacher group children who have a huge vocabulary but poor grammar skills and others who have correct grammar but a poor vocabularyAlso, suppose the students have similar language abilities but different learning styles! Hence the concept of co-operative learning: students with a mixture of personalities, talents and weaknesses (a more realistic reflection of life) learn better as they co-operate (合作), instead of compete, and depend on each other for support and information. (280 words)31. How would you describe the writer's style?A) The passage is written in an academic style.B) The passage is written in a journalistic style.C) The passage is written in a personal style.D) The passage is written on the basis of widespread research in the areA)32. How would you describe the writer's attitude towards the Canadian bilingual programmes?A) Balanced. B) Unenthusiastic. C) Supportive. D) Critical.33. In paragraph 1 the writer ________.A) agrees completely with Mr. Whelpton's argumentB) agrees partially with Mr. Whelpton's argumentC) disagrees completely with Mr. Whelpton's argumentD) is overwhelmingly critical of Mr. Whelpton's argument34. In paragraph 2 "sterile" is closest in meaning to________.A) uninformative B) unusual C) stereotypical D) uninspiring35. According to the writer the Canadian bilingual programs have been a success ________.A) because students accept the objective of making English the language of the classroomB) because students study in classrooms where everybody is at about the same levelC) because the students can use their first language freelyD) because they work towards real life goalsText 4If sustainable competitive advantage depends on workforce skills, American firms have a problem. Human-resource management is not traditionally seen as central to the competitive survival of the firm in the United States. Skill acquisition is considered an individual responsibility. Labor is simply another factor of production to be hired rented at the lowest possible cost much as one buys raw materials or equipment.The lack of importance attached to human-resource management can be seen in the corporate hierarchy. In an American firm the chief financial officer is almost always second in command. The post of head of human-resource management is usually a specialized job, off at the edge of the corporate hierarchy. The executive who holds it is never consulted on major strategic decisions and has no chance to move up to Chief Executive Officer (CEO). By way of contrast, in Japan the head of human resource management is central usually the second most important, after the CEO, in the firm's hierarchy.While American firms often have the vast amounts spent on training their work forces, in fact, they invest less in the skills of their employees than do either Japanese or German firms. The money they do invest is also more highly concentrated on professional and managerial employees. And the limited investments that are made in training workers are also much more narrowly focused on the specific skills necessary to do the next job rather than on the basic background skills that make it possible to absorb new technologies.As a result, problems emerge when new breakthrough technologies arrive. If American workers, for example, take much longer to learn how to operate new flexible manufacturing stations than workers in Germany (as they do).the effective cost of those stations is lower in Germany than it is in the United States. More time is required before equipment is up and running at capacity, and the need for extensive retraining generates costs and creates bottlenecks that limit the speed with which new equipment can be employed. The result is a slower pace of technological change. And in the end the skills of the bottom half of the population affect the wages of the top half. If the bottom half can't effectively staff the processes that have to be operated, the management and professional jobs that go with these processes will disappear.36. Which of the following applies to the management of human resources in American companies?A) They hire people at the lowest cost regardless of their skills.B) They see the gaining of skills as their employees’ own business.C) They attach more importance to workers than to equipment.D) They only hired skilled workers because of keen competition.37. What is the position of the head of human resource management?A) He is one of the most important executives in the firm.B) His post is likely to disappear when new technologies are introduced.C) He is directly under the chief financial executive.D) He has no say in making important decisions in the firm.38. The money most American firms put in training mainly goes to________.A) workers who can operate new equipmentB) technological and managerial staffC) workers who lack basic ground skillsD) top executives39. What's the main idea of the passage?A) American firms are different from Japanese and German firms in human-resource management.B) Extensive retraining is indispensable to effective human resource management.C) The head of human resource management must be in the central position in a firm's hierarchy.D) The human resource management strategies of American firms will affect their competitive capacity.40. According to the passage, the decisive factor in maintaining a firm's competitive advantage is ___________.A) the introduction of new technologiesB) the improvement of workers' skillsC) the rational composition of professional and managerial employeesD) the attachment of importance to the bottom half of the employeesIII.

新视野视听第三册口语题目参考Unit 011. What factors may weaken one's memory?It is often reported that long-term poor nutrition may affect the functioning of the brain, thus damaging both the long-term and short-term memory. Also harmful to one's memory is lack of water. Elderly people need plenty of water to guarantee their memory works. A third factor is lack of sleep. Without enough sleep, one may feel tired and have difficulty concentrating, not to mention learning things by heart.2. Can you describe some possible advantages of having a poor memory?A poor memory may have some advantages. With the passage of time, the sad memories will fade. Those with a short memory tend to recover faster than those with a tenacious memory. For the same reason, forgetful people may be more ready to forget their daily worries and forgive others for their offenses. With a less retentive mind, they may enjoy life more.3. What can you do to make sure all your relatives and friends are on the guest list for your birthday party?First of all, I would check my address book and tick thenames of those I intend to invite. Then, to avoid possible omissions, I would ask some of my close relatives, friends and colleagues to look at my initial list of names. They might suggest one or two additions. In this way, I can reduce the chances of missing those I should invite.4. How do you ensure important phone numbers are always at your fingertips?I usually remember my close relatives and friends' phone numbers through frequent use. But my memory cannot always be trusted. In this case, a mobile phone is extremely useful because it can store many phone numbers. But when the batteries run down, the mobile phone can't help either. So I also rely on my address book. To play safe, I prefer to have two address books. I take one with me and leave the other at home. Thus I can always find the number I need.My memory is fading /my mind has gone blankEvery forgets something sometimes/one thing or another thing from time to timeHave a powerful memoryWhat’s wrong with my memoryUnit 021. What subject do you like best? What made you like it: your personal interests, the teacher, the practical applications of the course in future, etc.?I like physics best, though many classmates find it hard. A lot of factors led me to like this subject. As early as in high school, I was amazed at the laws scientists like Newton and Einstein discovered. What I they found out changed the world. Luckily, my physics teacher at this university is excellent. He is knowledgeable and patient. Just because of him, I'm willing to spend lots of my spare time on this subject. Most importantly, what I have learned from the physics course will be of great help in landing a good job. Nowadays many companies think physics majors often have a solid academic foundation and can easily adapt themselves to a wide variety of positions. 2. Do you think it is necessary for some Chinese children to do a lot of difficult math problems for the Olympic Math Competition?Some parents believe that by doing a lot of difficult math problems, their children will have a solid foundation in math. Some parents even believe that trying to solve hard mathproblems will promote the growth of children's brains and help develop their logical reasoning ability and concentration, which will facilitate learning in other areas. On the other hand, many people believe that it is unnecessary and unnatural for children to study difficult [math problems. Some people even believe that strict math training harms children's moral and physical development. Fierce competition may dampen the spirit of teamwork, which is so important in the contemporary world.3. What study habits seem to be common among successful students?Many top students seem to have these good study habits: They tend to have a strong sense of time and organize their time well. They may draw up their study plan well in advance. While studying, they check whether they are working ahead of schedule or lagging behind it. They usually work in a systematic way. Before class, they preview the text to get some idea about what the teacher is going to say and which part of the text is difficult. In class, they listen attentively, take notes of the main points of the lecture, and ask questions when they don't understand. After class, they review what they have learned. By going through the text and the notes, they can remember important information.4. How to prevent students' cheating in examinations?First, the administrators must adopt severe measures to punish that disgraceful practice. In the case of serious offenders, it is not enough just to give them an F. They must repeat the whole year, or even be expelled from school. Second, it is more important for teachers to enforce the university rules strictly. When they see students cheating, they should not turn a blind eye to it.Unit 031. What do you think are the things that contribute to a successful marriage?The success of a marriage is due to many factors, of which love is obviously the most important one. Other [factors, which are not entirely unrelated to love, include shared values and interests, mutual understanding, | commitment, effective communication, similar educational background, equal economic status, physical fitness, etc. With the same values and moral standards, friends may develop into lifelong partners. After marriage, there needs to be a commitment to one another, and to the well-being and development of the family. Similar educational background and intelligence levelsare also considered important by some people. They believe that only with mutual appreciation and understanding can the couple get along easily and happily.2. Why do people get divorced? Can you guess some of the reasons?Sometimes it is because the couple did not really understand each other before the marriage, as love was [blind at that time. After marriage, they see each other's shortcomings more clearly. When disappointment grows beyond control, divorce becomes inevitable. Sometimes it is because one of the couple has changed after the marriage. For example, after the husband is promoted to a leading position, he may have a hectic |time all year round, with hardly any time left to be with his wife. Sometimes one of the couple has lost his or [her job and becomes irritable. Due to the continual quarrelling at home, the family breaks up.3. What do you think of the lives of single mothers?Most people look upon single mothers with sympathy. Single mothers have to support their children on their [own. They may find it difficult to provide their children with all the luxuries children of two-parent families enjoy. Worse still, they may be under great psychological pressure. Moreover, their children may develop a sense of inferiority. When they seeother children are bathed in the love of both parents, they may feel bitterly disappointed.4. What is your view of the fact that the wife's housekeeping duties remain the same even when she works outside? What could be the solution?If the wife works during the day just like the husband, then it is obviously unfair for the wife to shoulder all the housekeeping duties. If the husband can share the household chores with the wife, the love between them can be strengthened. Unfortunately, influenced by tradition, many men are unwilling to do housework, thinking it to be unmanly. If we want to change the situation, the media had better give more publicity to "model husbands" who assume a large part of those duties. Gradually, people may change their image of a husband who constantly sits in front of the TV, watching football games or international news. Also, the development of modern technology and the appearance of more modern conveniences will further lighten the housekeeping burden. IUS the problem of who should do the housework will become less important.Unit 041. What do you think people will choose: a low-paid jobone likes, or a boring well-paid job?I think many people prefer to find a job that they really like. After all, most people want to enjoy themselves rather than have plenty of money without a sense of achievement and happiness. On the other hand, some people may choose a well-paid job instead of a job close to their heart to earn more money. If one is in serious financial difficulty, one can hardly afford the luxury of a dream job. Money is the lop priority. 2. Do you think one's character is important in finding a job? Why or why not?I think it is. Although many employers lay emphasis on candidates' educational background and work experience, some believe that candidates' character is equally important for a successful career. In contemporary society, many projects are so large that they require the coordination of a group of people father than a single person's effort. Therefore, a good team player is often welcomed. Professionally skilled people may not be able to accomplish a large project if they are easily angered and cannot get along with their colleagues. If you want to assume a leading position, you should be firm on important issues while allowing your subordinates plenty of freedom. In fact it is becoming increasingly common for companies to test candidates' EQ (emotional quotient) beforethey decide to hire them.3. What courses are useful for one's job?In fact, all courses may turn out to be useful in our future careers. The basic courses we take in the first two wears of university lay a solid foundation for our future development. In the case of computer majors, for example, the math they have learned will enhance their ability for logical reasoning. The English courses I they have followed will help them read the literature in their fields with greater ease. Art courses may increase their sense of balance and beauty.However, the courses in their specialties are often of greater relevance and value for their career development. I For instance, computer majors may find courses such as programming, computer network, database, and CAD (Computer Aided Design) more closely related to their future work.4. What questions do you think are often asked in an interview? Why are they asked?To start with, the interviewers may ask you about your education. In this way they can gather information to see if you have acquired the basic knowledge required for the job you are applying for. Perhaps most of them will ask you about your work experience in this field to see if you have thenecessary skills for the job you have in mind. Usually employers do not like an entirely inexperienced employee. They may also ask about your character, weaknesses and strengths to find out what kind of person you are. They may even ask you something that is not directly related to the job in question. Your answers tend to show your intelligence level and communication skills.Unit 051. Do you want to be a boss who is starting a company or an employee with a high salary?Different people may have different choices. Some people may put a regular job above good pay for a variety of reasons. Employees usually know what they are supposed to do and have a fairly stable life. With a high-paying job, they and their families can live a comfortable life. When they have accumulated enough money, they can start a business when conditions are favorable. On the other hand, many people want to set up a business of their own right now. Indeed, launching a company involves a lot of effort. What is worse, there is risk. But they like challenges. By trying to establish a company, not only may they make lots of money, they can also develop their abilities to overcome difficulties.2. What kind of boss would you like to work for: one who is inefficient but kind, or one who is efficient but very strict with employees?Many people, if not most, prefer to work for a kind, good-natured boss. Under such a boss, they feel secure and happy. The boss won't scold employees simply because they have made a small mistake. He will also be generous. It is true that sometimes because of his lack of ability, his company may not reap huge profits, and employees can hardly get a raise. But happiness is surely more important than money. However, some people, including me, will choose to work for a boss who is capable but very strict with his subordinates. If the boss is capable, he will lead the company to one new height after another. When the company thrives, all employees will benefit. Even if the boss may give an employee a severe dressing-down for something he or she did, the employee can learn a lesson from the event. Under such a boss, employees can gain valuable experience, which may serve as a good foundation for them to start a business of their own in the future.3. Why do some people think sports clothes and shoes provide a good business opportunity? What age groups do you think the business people should target? Why?With more leisure time and money, many people pay more attention to their health and recreation. As a result, more and more people will engage in sports, and they will buy more fitness gear, including sports clothes and shoes. Obviously this provides a hot business opportunity. In my opinion, business people should target young people first. They are active and participate more in sports than other age groups. But business people should not neglect older people. After retirement, they often find their health on the decline, and therefore have the motivation for fitness exercises. As for middle-aged people, many of them are under such great pressure at work that they can hardly afford the time for sports. |4. If you wanted to start a business, which factors would you consider: your education and ability, your money, or the market? Why?If I wanted to launch a business, I would consider all of these factors, for they all play an indispensable role. First of all, I would consider my ability. Since I majored in biology, I would be cautious in starting a company to sell something I am not familiar with such as building materials or DVDs. With my educational background, I may find it easier to run a company selling bio-tech products. The next thing I would have o take into account, is the money available. Suppose theestablishment of a company required a capital of a million dollars, I would try to see whether I could get a loan. If not, I would give up the idea and try to set up a smaller service company that required less capital. Last but not least, I would survey the market to see if the products I planned to deal with could be sold. If they were unmarketable, I had better give up the idea of founding a company in this area. If they sold well, then I would go ahead.Unit 061. Why do you think some people smoke? What are the disadvantages of smoking?Some people think smoking makes them relax. Some people smoke just because all those around them smoke. Some believe that by passing cigarettes around, it will be easier for them to start a friendship. Others claim that smoking is a precondition for a booming tobacco industry, which in turn ensures a large tax income for the state. But I think those reasons, if we can call them reasons, are insignificant compared with the harm smoking brings. I Smoking is harmful to one's health. It can lead to many diseases. Long-term smoking may result in lung diseases, or even lung cancer. Also, some heavy smokers may suffer frombreathing difficulty, high blood pressure, heart trouble, amongst other diseases. It has been proved that even non-smokers who breathe in the smoke can develop health problems. Moreover, cigarettes cost money. Some chain smokers consume two packs of cigarettes a day. This can be an unnecessary financial burden on a family that is not rich.2. What do you think can be done to improve older people's lives if their children do not live with them?First of all, children should visit their parents from time to time. This is a sign of concern, which can be a great comfort to them. Even if people are terribly busy under the pressure of work, they can at least call their parents to say hello. Furthermore, children should provide their parents with what they need. If older people can get money or I other supplies on a regular basis, they may get a sense of security. Also, the government should establish more homes and organize more activities to meet the increasing I needs of an aging population. If some older people prefer to live at home, they should hire caregivers. In the light of their shortage of money, an expert has proposed a system under which aged people can mortgage their apartments to the bank in exchange for a monthly income. By the time they pass away, the apartments belong to the bank. But at least the old people enjoy a decentlife while they are alive.3. Why do some people become alcoholics? How can they solve their drinking problems?Some people drink because their parents drink a lot, so they follow suit. Some people pick up the habit of drinking because they feel lonely or bored, others drink when they are sad or angry, and still others drink to celebrate happy occasions. Gradually, they drink more and more until they are hooked on alcohol. To solve drinking problems, people should be informed about the dangers of too much alcohol consumption, such as high blood pressure, heart disease, liver trouble, and so on. It is also reported that alcohol can damage brain cells and memory. Under the influence of alcohol, one can hardly concentrate or think deeply, so their work efficiency drops. Worse still, drunks often cause traffic accidents or resort to physical violence. Moreover, one must have strong willpower to give up drinking. But unfortunately, few people are strong-willed enough to defeat alcoholism on their own. Often, they need external help from parents, spouses, friends, doctors or an organization like Alcoholics Anonymous.4. What should be done to help unemployed people?Before unemployed people find a job, their basic living standard should be met. They need subsidies from thegovernment to live a normal life, which includes money for food, clothes, shelter and transportation. It is also important for unemployed people to be trained for re-employment. The government should offer training programs to update their skills so that they will become competitive in the job market again.Unit 071. According to your experience, what damages are being done to the environment? sand stormLittering. Some people throw away paper, cigarette butts, empty cans or even batteries in public places or in scenic sites. Pollution. When households and factories dump sewerage and harmful substances into rivers and lakes, water pollution can be serious. Air pollution may worsen as the economy develops. If the smoke from factory chimneys does not meet environmental standards, it pollutes the air. Also, the increasing number of cars brings further deterioration to the quality of the air. The cigarettes people smoke also contribute to the pollution. Poisonous Substances. When we discard air-conditioners and refrigerators, we release poisonous substances like CFCs, which deplete the ozone layer or create a hole in the ozone layer. When you use aerosol spray on yourhair, you are spreading environmentally-damaging freon as well.2. Can you think of some measures to protect forests?I think the most important thing to do is to create a law to forbid the cutting of trees in certain areas. Even when timber is needed for construction, logging should be well planned. In addition to the law, we also need law enforcement personnel who will fine those who fell trees illegally. It is not enough to protect the existing forests. We must also plant trees to make new forests. We should also grow various types of trees to ensure bio-diversity. To make the afforestation program successful, the government should award those units and individuals that have made outstanding contributions.3. If a chemical plant has to dump a poisonous substance into the river, but its closing-down means that many workers will lose their jobs and the local economy will be affected, then what do you propose to do?In my opinion, the first step we can take is to introduce advanced ecological technology to make sure that the sewerage from the plant is properly treated before it is discharged into the river. Since some company managers are unwilling to spend money treating pollutants, they may dumpnoxious substances during the night. So it is necessary to set up a watchdog team to supervise the plant's sewerage treatment. If the plant fails to meet the ecological standards, we have no choice but to shut it down. After all, human life is more important than anything else. If the workers lose their jobs because of the close-down, the government can give them subsidies and run training programs so that they can find new jobs in other sectors of the economy. If the local economy is badly hit by the close-down, the central government can consider subsidizing the local government for a certain period of time until the jobless workers are re-employed.4. Which types of energy should we use: wood, coal, petroleum, water power, nuclear energy or solar energy? Give your reasons.In my opinion, we should try our best to avoid using wood and coal as fuel. The burning of wood creates air pollution. Moreover, trees cannot be reproduced easily. It takes dozens of years or even hundreds of years for a young tree to grow into a big tree. Similarly, coal burning pollutes the air. It would be even more difficult to reproduce coal. The formation of coal takes thousands of years. Nowadays, people use petroleum the most. Cars, ships, aircraft and many factories depend on it. It causes less pollution than coal and wood, but it is alsonon-renewable. To leave enough resources for future generations, we need sustainable development. We have to use those fossil fuels less and turn to other types of energy such as water power, nuclear energy and solar energy.Unit 081. Compare air and rail transport and discuss the advantages and disadvantages.It is obvious that air transport or air travel is fast. Within hours, a plane can carry passengers and cargo to a place, thousands of miles away. Business people can fly to a distant city, do business there, and fly back on (he same day. A train, on the other hand, goes at a slower speed. It may take you more than a day to travel to a faraway place in the country. A problem with plane is that it is incapable of transporting large quantities of freight. In this respect the train is superior. The train can carry more goods than the plane and other modes of land transport.2. Do you prefer to fly business class or economy class?I prefer economy class. Thrift is considered a traditional virtue in Chinese society, and most people do not want to waste money on something that is not absolutely necessary. Some people want to fly business class, for they feel morecomfortable in a bigger seat with a better choice of foods and drinks. But I don't think the small benefits are worth the high costs. However, in some cases, for example, when traveling with an important business partner, I might want to buy business class, or even first class tickets to show my company's financial strength and give him/her confidence in doing business with us.3 Do you wish to be a flight attendant? Why or why not?First, flight attendants often have ample opportunities to fly to different parts of the country or even of the world. Through their service, flight attendants interact with many passengers. As a result, they tend to develop good interpersonal skills, which will prove to be valuable in the future, even after they transfer to a different job. Last but not least, flight attendants are usually well paid. But there are some disadvantages as well. An obvious drawback is that, often, they cannot go back home everyday. This irregular pattern of life makes it difficult for them to stay with their families. What's more, some passengers can be rude and unpleasant. The most undesirable aspect of their job, however, is the danger of accidents. All the advantages of a flying career disappear in a crash.4. Many airline companies are lowering fares andmaking smaller profits. Give some of the possible reasons.Airfare used to be quite high, so the aviation industry was highly profitable. The economic benefits drew more companies into the market, which in turn led to more intense competition. To survive in it, airlines have had to cut prices, which means smaller profits. In recent years, fuel has become increasingly expensive, and this has cut further into airline companies' profits. With higher salaries for employees, airlines now have only small profit margins.Unit 091. Name some Western and Chinese festivals, and special days that seem to be especially important, and explain why they are importantThere are a number of Western festivals, such as Christmas, Boxing Day, Thanksgiving Day, New Year's Day, New Year's Eve, Halloween, Valentine's Day, Mother's Day, and Father's Day. There are also a number of traditional festivals in China, such as the Spring Festival (or the Chinese New Year), the Lantern Festival the Pure Brightness Festival (or Qingming Festival or the Tomb-Visiting Festival), the Dragon Boat Festival, the Mid-Autumn Festival, the Double-Ninth Festival(or the Seniors'Day), etc. Some Western holidays such as Mother's Day, Father's Day and Valentine's Day are also becoming popular in China. In the West, Christmas is obviously the most important festival since it involves a long holiday, and almost all the people celebrate it. In fact, it has become quite popular in many non-Western countries. In China the Spring Festival is clearly the most important traditional holiday, which lasts three days or more and most Chinese both at home and abroad celebrate it.2. Do you mink it is necessary for the Chinese to celebrate Christmas?I think we Chinese should pay more attention to traditional Chinese festivals such as the Spring Festival, the Lantern Festival and the Mid-Autumn Festival. Observance of those traditional holidays increases cohesion of the entire nation. If those traditional holidays should disappear, it would be a loss to Chinese culture and to world civilization as well. On the other hand, Christmas is a season for people to be jolly. It is also an occasion for people to express love and other pleasant feelings. When family members get together for a huge dinner, they have a sense of warmth and closeness. When children receive gifts, they are excited, and their happiness is infectious. As the world has become smaller throughglobalization, Christmas has become more popular in many non-Western countries.3. Why is Valentine's Day more popular in China now compared to it was decades ago?Since love is one of the most fundamental emotions, it certainly deserves a holiday. In fact, love is an eternal theme in novels, dramas and poems. People need a holiday to express their emotions. When people exchange cards and gifts on Valentine's Day, they express their affection for others and feel happy. The holiday seems to be especially important to young men and women. Therefore, young Chinese people have good reason to celebrate Valentine's Day. As China is gradually integrating with the rest of the world, why can't we celebrate Valentine's Day? Unfortunately, the traditional Chinese Lover's Day, which falls on the seventh day of the seventh lunar month, is largely neglected now, despite the interesting story of the meeting between the legendary Cowherd and Girl Weaver. Why hasn't the tradition been revived and made popular among young people?4. It is sometimes claimed that many festivals have been created just to encourage people to spend money. Do you agree?It is true that business people are seeking every。

新视野book3口语练习
Unit One1.How do you understand " Love without limitations"?From this passage we can know there had never been any limitations to what Jimmy’s love could accomplish. I think the title “love without limitations”is the way we treat others. Love the people around us no matter whether they are healthy, clever or kind-hearted.In our lives, we often see some people treat the disabled people badly.This is a very shameful action. We should have a kind heart no matter what we are doing. Jimmy’s love teaches the people around him love without limitations.2.People’s attitude toward the disabledThere are a lot of disabled people in our world. Some of them are disabled when they were born as Jimmy, and others were injured in some kind of disabling accident. Almost all of us feel sorry for them, but still some have the wrong attitude towards people with disabilities.While we should come to the conclusion that we have duty to take care of those disabled people, and we cannot look down upon them. They are the same as us, and even do better than us in some aspects. After all, we should try our best to help them, to show our love for them.As Jimmy’s sister, I will help Jimmy overcome the difficulty. Even though Jimmy is disabled, he also can learn many things. And he canalso help others. I will help him learn to live by himself. In the present life, he lives with his family members, but later I will help him stand up . I will try my best to help him, help him be confident. And Jimmy has a kind heart. He also makes us happy.3.The beggars in disguise in the street.Some people say:"The most hateful people are those beggars disguising as beggars for sympathy.”And I do not believe in beggars any more or believe that they actually have other means of living. They aren't poor at all. They are not worth of our sympathy and help. They are cheats. I would not give them any money, for it would encourage them to stay a bum and continue panning for money. Meanwhile, some effective measures must be taken to eliminate the beggars in disguise.It is high time to identify the frauds and teach them a proper lesson so that the really needy can continue to get help from society. In addition, the establishment of social welfare and social security system plays an urgent role in dealing with this kind of problem.Unit Two4.What do you know about the relation between iron and health?The iron is related with our health. When our body is lack of iron, we will feel weak, tired, and out of breath. Most of the people think if we doexercise, we will be healthy. But we always ignore the element. Most of the people don’t take care of the iron. To some people, they should have a yearly blood test to check blood iron reserves. If iron levels are low, talk with a physician to see if the deficiency should be corrected by modifying your diet or by taking supplements. In general, it’s better to undo the problem by adding more iron-rich food to diet, so in our daily life, we need to eat more food including iron such as meat , chicken, and fish . We also can eat some dates, beans, and some leafy green vegetables. Don’t wait until our bodies lack iron.5.What do you know about the relation between exercise andhealth ?Discuss whatcontributes to good health?There is a direct correlation between physical exercise and overall health.If you get regular exercise and don't totally "junk out" regarding your diet, you will, in general, be healthier than someone who doesn't exercise. There is no medical practitioner or physiologist alive who will disagree with this idea. Not a single one. It is not necessary to become an athlete to improve your health, your quality of life, and your longevity.Exercise can help us keep healthy . More and more people in the modern life don’t have much time to do exercise . So people don’t have ahealthy body . Most of us students always sit for a long time . We even need take exercise . But not all of the sports fit us very well . Some people like those Aerobic exercise（有氧运动）. Some people like running , surfing and swimming . Doing exercise is good for our health . Exercise can Increase our body function and reduce fatigue .When we feel tired , we can do some exercise .Eating a balanced diet. If you don't think that you are getting enough vitamins try vitamin supplements and of course exercise around half an hour 5 times a week is good and if you eat a banana before doing exercise it helps with your metabolism so you burn off more calories!Keeping a good state of mind is also important for good health. Happy every day.6.How do you understand "mind is body, and body is mind "?Exercise benefits both body and mind. Just as exercise strength the heart and lungs, bones and muscles, it can also power up the brain.Some scientists speculate the reduction in mental function often attribute to getting old may really be a penalty of neglecting to stay physical active.Mind is tightly associated with body. If we have a healthy body, we will be active in our mind ,we also can have energy to do what we want to do in our mind. If we are healthy in our mind ,we will want to exercise our body, and we can be more healthy.Unit Three7.Give your comments on the Hyde School’s principle of running school.Hyde School is different from other schools.Hyde School thinks the quality of students is very important. Not intelligence or wealth. Conscience and hard work are valued. And success is measured by growth, not academic achievement. They think that if you teach students the merit of such values as true, courage, integrity, leadership, curiosity and concern, then academic achievement actually follows. This is the principle of Hyde School . It is very new.And it also pay attention to develop the relationship between teachers and student. They deal with the academics together. Teachers and students are friends.8.What are the main differences between the Hyde School and traditionalschools? Which do you prefer? Give your reasons.Hyde School is very different from traditional school.First, the principle is different. Hyde School operates on the principle that if you teach students the merit of such values as true, courage, integrity, leadership, curiosity and concern, then academic achievement actually follows. Traditional school’s principle is that the score is the first.Second, Hyde School’s students are required to take performing artsand sports, and provided a community service. Traditional classroom is single and boring.Third, in Hyde School, parents take part in the program. Traditional school is opposite.Forth, it pay attention to develop the relationship between teachers and student. They deal with the academics together. In traditional high school setting, it’s teacher to the material and then to the student.I prefer Hyde School. I think it is more interesting. We can learn moreknowledge. We can improve ourselves all-sided . And with the parents’ help , we can success more easily. In Hyde School, there are less press.9.Do you think it necessary to involve parents in the education program?Yes, I do.When we meet with difficulties in learning or lives, if parents are involved, they will encourage us, let us have the confidence to face the difficulty. Our parents are our example , with their encouragement, we will actively face learning difficulties, fighting over them at an early date.And parents will set a model for their children. Children tend to do their utmost when their parents making similar efforts. Parents involved in the child's education also can supervise their children to study, there are some students in the case of only oneself can't concentrate on learning, accompanied by the parents, children will be very good study. So I thinkit necessary to involve parents in the education program.Unit Four10.Introduce some symbols of American culturewhen we come to America , we will think of some symbols of American culture immediately .First, the statue of liberty which is created by a French artist a monument celebrating US independence and the France-America alliance which is dedicated on the island in Upper New York Bay. Second , Barbie dolls the universally recognized Queen of the Dolls .Third American Gothic an often-copied interpretation of the solemn pride of American farmers.11.What do you know about the American people from the symbols?independentseeking for freedomment on young people's attitude towards foreign culture.Today we are in a globalized cultural world . people especially young people are more interested in foreign culture than our traditional culture. Young people put much attention to celebrating foreign festivals which they think are very fashionable. Naturally, there are a lot of cultures in the world and some of these cultures are beneficial while others are harmful. They sometimes choose culture blindly and are not conscious of being infected by these culture. Gradually, these culture will deepen into their thoughts and behavior. In my opinion ,young people should not only actively absorb foreign culture which is advanced into the development China but also protect our traditional Chinese culture.Unit Five13.Give your comments on Mrs. Clark after reading the passage?Mrs.Clark is an ordinary women who is fear for death, so she ask the author to accompany with her. She is also an unordinary woman. She don’t want her relatives to feel the sorrow of her death.14.She has a severe ill and she is only skin and bones. But before she died,she sent all her family members home because she didn't want them to see her die. It shows that she is a considerable and selfless old lady. She loves her family. She has a big family and she is a mother of seven, and a grandmother of eighteen. But She takes good care of all her families.And she was used to do charity in many aspects.For example, she was a leader of volunteer in her community and a piano player. She teaches piano or over thirty years. She not only has graceful hands but also has a graceful heart.15.Your attitude towards death.To be or not to be ,most of people fear death. And few of us can stay calm when dealing with death. After all ,death is a normal phenomenon that we can never avoid being faced with. Although we Chinese tend toassociate it to infelicity, it’s cann’t be denied that everyone will inevitably end his life in a grave, however prominent and intelligent he is in life . Being afraid of death is justified ,however ,it is commonly acknowledged that in the face of death ,nothing but the attitude toward it matters.In many culture it is taboo to raise the topic of death in everyday discourse, but this is not the case with the Chinese people .To them life and death are a common conversational topic. Their matter of fact approach is illustrated in the sayings: Human life is nothing but a stage over which the sun and the moon function as two spotlights; We live our lives in the same way as grass passes the seasons from spring to autumn; There is no distinction between the old and the young among those on their way to the tomb.These aphorisms exemplify the belief that man is born to die, and that life is merely a journey from womb to tomb, a natural process governed by an objective law that no one can escape or flout. No matter what endeavors one might make, everyone succumbs to mortality within a certain time span. Nothing can be done other than follow the natural process from birth to death, just as grass sprouts in spring like the essence of youth and withers in autumn like the onset of old age. Apart from accepting the truth that we human being are not immortal, we should extend our deep grief to who have passed away then moveon to the bright future instead of immersing ourselves in great mourning. Moreover we should do our best to make each day counts.Unit Six16.What do you know about advance signs or warnings of an earthquake? some behaviors of animals are good signs of earthquakes. Firstly, hens refuse to enter their cages at night. Secondly, snakes come out of the ground to death. Thirdly, even normally quiet dogs bark a lot. The fourth, large schools of fish swim near the surface of the water17.What will you do to get well prepared for an earthquake?Firstly, building structures that can withstand the power of earthquakes, use relatively light roofs and strong walls Secondly, people in areas where earthquakes are common need to prepare for the possibility of earthquakes, check and reinforce their homes regularly, place heavy objects in low positions, attach cupboards and cabinets to walls and fasten doors .thirdly, people can have supplies of water and food at home and at work, and it’s important to have something that can clean water and kill bacteria.18.How can you survive inside or outside when an earthquake happens?If you are inside, you should stay at bathroom. you had better take some water with you. On the other hand, wrapped in soft things to protect youfrom harm. Don’t use elevator, try to take the stains. Stop your car in the open and stay in if you are in outside. Remember that stay away from buildings and treesUnit Seven19.Do you think one’s personality is so important as to influence theirsuccess? Give your reasons.First, one person's personality is related with the way he deal with the things. everyone has his own way ,someone is very conscientious and someone are not. Second, one's personality can influence what they think, for example, Ma Yun, who is great creative, coming up with the idea that offering extremely discounts for their consumers in the single's day. Also, this can decide whether he can succeed or not. So, personality can influence many things. And other people also evaluate one man by his personality. A good personality is very important.Sometimes it can help you get the chance. And you will succeed. So one's personality is so important as to influence their success.20.How do you see one’s academic performance at scho ol in relation totheir future achievement?I think someone's academic performance at school can influence his futureachievement in some way. and it is very important ,But not the decidingfactor .first, from the economic point of view, a person's achievement and money directly related to a great extent, which is to how much wealth he has size to measure a person's accomplishments, such as jack ma. From the perspective of the history of ma, school learning and his today's achievement is not necessarily linked, and is the key to his understanding, tact and to grasp the opportunity. Second, from the Angle of culture, a person's ideological achievements have great relationship with its knowledge reserves, and the key to it is thought in the process of learning in school period. Third, a person's achievement is combined by various factor such as courage, experience and some opportunities and so on.21.Can you list some good personal traits?1.the ability to communicate effectively2. be creative ability3.multitasking ability4.far-sighted, never view or deal with things undermy nose 5.have a specific aim and life plan 6.always arrange time properly7.have enthusiasm 8.conquer difficulties bravely 9.Be always punctual.have a strong sense of time consciousness.10.be a good listener 11. friendly and kindhearted. 11. hardworking 12.cooperativeUnit Nine22.Do you think a premarital agreement is necessary? Why or why not?I think that prenuptial agreements are bad ideas which is one of thereason leading your marriage failure. Because the family is based on trust. They must love each other if one couple decided to make a family.So they are ready to face difficulties. Even if there are some contradiction, they can deal with it together. This is love. And if one couple sign a premarital agreement before marriage, that indicate they don’t trust each other.23.A topic for debate; nothing can kill romance faster than a prenup.I firmly believed that everyone wants to have a romantic marriage.Signing prenuptial agreeme nts means that you don’t believe your spouse, not to say romantic. Prenuptial agreements are bad for love, bad for relationships, and bad for marriage. So I think nothing can kill romantic faster than prenup.24.Discuss the possible roles that a premarital agreement may play.As saying goes:”Every coin has two sides.”Prenuptial agreements also have both benefits and harm. On the one hand, it can protect the considerable accumulation of wealth of one of the couples and save a couple from a terrible marriage. But on the other hand the prenuptial agreement may lead marriage to failu re.Additional discussion:25.Should drivers be banned from using cell phones?Numerous studies have determined that talking on a cell phone while driving is just as dangerous as drunk driving. Therefore, cell phones must be banned to drivers.Firstly, using a phone while driving is a potential trigger to accidents and will make a lot of lives lost. Drivers who talk on a cell phone tend to respond less quickly, and are much more likely to cause a crash.Secondly, cell phone use can influence traffic. A person using cell phone while driving may lose control of their speed. It's simply inconsiderate to risk the lives of others.Third, it's also a very bad example for younger generations. Teenagers may think that using a phone and driving at the same time seems cool, so they tend to act this way when they are of age to drive. This will become a vicious cycle and more people will get hurt.It's obvious that driving while using a cell phone may put other people's life at risk, it also puts yourself in a dangerous situation. Therefore, drivers should be definitely be banned from cell phones.26.Should people be banned from smoking in public places?From my point of view people should be banned from smoking in public places. Recently, the phenomenon of smoking is more and moreuniversal\common. It has been estimated that smokers have made up half of the population in China. And the smokers are becoming younger and younger, even including some middle school students.In modern society, more and more people have realized that smoking is harmful for people's health. However, some people still enjoy smoking. Why? Because some of them think it is a kind of fashion, some think it is of great fun, some think it is a way of relaxing themselves and other think that smoking can refresh themselves.In fact, smoking is a bad habit. It can cause a lot of diseases, such as lung disease, intellectual deterioration(智力衰退)even stroke(中风).What's more, smoking in public can also cause passive smoking, which affects the non-smokers. For examples, it is harmful for the non-smokers' eyes, noses and throat, even cause lung and heart diseases. Meanwhile smoking is a waste of money. Besides, careless smokers may cause dangerous fires.Smoking is harmful and it is not only bad for smokers themselves, but also bad for non-smokers.Therefore, I hope all the smokers can give up smoking for themselves and also for the people around them.。
