Events & Activities
1.What activity do you enjoy doing most with your family?
--- 2009.1.10;
I enjoy doing a lot of things with my family but the most pleasant activity we d like to do together is to go to hot spring hotel in Beijing. First, making bath in hot spring is very healthy, actually its very good for the seniors. Since my father’ knees pain often, he really enjoys relief from hurt. Second, there are good amenities like spa, fitness center, fancy restaurant, swimming pool, cyber bar, tea room. We can find out all we need. Every year I m very looking forward to spending a fabulous holidays there.
I like to go to picnic with my family the most. Our family really love nature and every spring we will go to Yuyuan park to see the gorgeous cherry blooming festival. The scenery is so splendid that it looks like unreal. Studying flowers is my mother’s pass-time. she would take hundreds of pictures of them while my father and I would play badminton or ride a boat. It’s comfortable and relaxing to have a picnic under the blooming trees admiring the flowers, chatting, stretching out on the grass and taking a nap.
2.Many students do volunteer work. What kind of volunteer do you want to
be? --- 2009.1.17 NA
I m a dog person, so if I did a volunteer work, I would choose to take care the homeless pets. As I have a dog myself, I know dogs’ habits and characters. When they act in a weird way, I would figure out the problems and be able to tell whether they are sick or hungry or just feel lonely. Second, I would feel happy, real happy to help these poor animals. I d love to feed them, clean them, give them body check. Their cute, innocent and grateful eyes make me pleased and touched from the bottom of my heart.
I prefer to join some animal organization to help the homeless dogs and cats for some reasons bellows: first I m a dog person. Loving animal is my nature and I have a puppy at home, so I have some necessary knowledge how to take care a pet. Second, I would like to help the organization to make some brochures or posters about protecting the homeless animals. I want to pass on the information and let more people involved in the service.
I would like to be a volunteer for community service.
3.Indoor activities and outdoor activities in your vacation. 2009.2.22 Outdoor activities sound more interesting for me. For one reason, I m an athletic person, doing sports is my favorite pass-time, such as badminton, swimming, jogging, climbing, hiking. So once I ve some spare time, I would definitely choose to go outside and do some sports. For another reason, outdoor activities is a good way of closing the nature. After a long time of stressful work at office, we really need some fresh air and stretch ourselves a little bit.
Of cause outdoor activities. For a urban habitant, cement and steel skyscrapers make me sick. No wonder how eager I m to go outdoor, to get some fresh air and to see some green scenery. During the vacation, all I need is to experience another life. On another hand, in outside, we have more choices to relax, like travelling, hiking, rock climbing, sunshine bath. Actually exposing in the sun will help body to produce some vitamin in need.
4.Some students prefer to do part-time jobs in the evening while others
prefer do part-time jobs during the day. Which do you prefer? Explain why.
--- 2009.3.29
Well, it depends. Someone is night owl, someone is early bird. For me, I would like to chose a job in the day. First, in the daytime, I feel more passionate and energetic. I m willing to do the work and more efficient. In the evening, I prefer to have some private time to do something personal or something alone, like reading, writing, listening music, watching a movie, dining with my friends. Second, working too late at night will harm my next day work. As I m still a student, my focus actually is on the study. Well, part-time job would be a good way of getting some experience, but I prefer to save the energy for next day’s class.
Personally, I would choose daytime job, because, most of my friends work in the day and they are off at night. I don’t want a different schedule which doesn’t match with others. Working in the evening will definitely reduce the time with my friends. Every time they ask me out, it would be embarrassing to not go. Second, working in the evening wouldn’t be very safe sometimes. If I worked at night, my parents will absolutely worry about me. Seriously, I don’t want to make them worried.
5.Describe one thing that you’ve always wanted to do but haven’t done yet.
--- 2009.5.15 NA
Well, it’s a little bit embarrassing. I m a junk food addict. I love sweets, chocolate, ice cream, fried chips, cheese cake, donut…Charlie’s chocolate factory is my dream. How many times I just want to pig out and eat up all
those yummy junk things, however, I can’t. Because they are junk food. They contain too much salt, sugar, high calories, protein, other chemicals which are harmful for the health, some may cause cancers. What’s more, I m a dance student. One of my daily homework is to control weight. If I wanted to be a pro dancer, I should be forbidden to touch any junk food.
I always want to learn dance, Tango, I mean. Once I watched a Spanish musical in theater, I was impressed and since then, I ve been wishing to learn it. But for several reasons I haven’t done it yet: first, it’s hard to found a real dance school. Once I went to a dance school, but the very next day, it was shut down. I was very upset. Second, after class, it’s not easy to get a partner to practice. I would be too shy to ask some classmate to be my partner and as they are working people. They don’t actually have time to practice with me. 6.Talk about an activity you enjoyed doing with your family when you were a
child. Describe the activity and explain why it was enjoyable to do this activity with your family. --- 2009.5.30 NA 同上
7.What new activity you like to do recently? 2009.6.20 同上
8.What big event happened in your country recently? 2009.6.27
Chinese writer Mo Yan won the Nobel Prize for his contribution in Chinese literature.
9.Talk about an activity you will do in the near future. 2009.8.1 同上
10.Describe a historical event that you are interested in. 2009.8.7
I would say Titanic. A luxurious cruise hit a iceberg and sank. That tragedy caused about 2000 deaths.
11.Which way do you prefer to spend your spare time, reading, thinking alone
or participating in group activities? Why? Use specific reasons and examples to support your answer. 2009.8.22
Group activities sound a better choice for me for the reasons bellow: first, living in the city makes it hard meet friends frequently. Organizing a group activity could definitely create an opportunity for friend reunion. We can do sports, go to karaoke, and do spa or facial which are not only good for health but also enhance our friendship. Second, companion brings more fun. Human is actually social animal. Communication is a gift endowed by nature. No matter what kind of activity you do, you would be glad to have someone to share your joy and your trouble. As we say, shared joy double, shared pains reduce.
Group activities would be my first choice. For one thing, group activities would teach me a teamwork spirit. As a young student, I d love to learn more about social life and networking skill. I think working or playing in group would bring me some new experience. For another, people can inspire you. As we say ‘two heads better than one’. More people are more likely to think up a great idea or solution, like brainstorm.
12.Describe the most important day of your life. Explain why it was important
to you. Include reasons and examples to support your response. 2009.9.25 NA
The most important day in my life was the day that I received the offer of my university. My parents were really proud of me and they called my grandparents and our relatives to share this good news. The whole family was happy for me and we had a dinner in a fancy restaurant to celebrate it. Since I ve been accepted by the university, I was invited to give a speech in my high school. I thanked my teachers and support from the family and shared the my study experience and school life stories. All my classmates and teachers applauded for me. That was an unforgettable day.
I would never forget the day I succeed to swim by myself because I think I ve accomplished a great job. I couldn’t swim until I went to college. The swim class was mandatory and I had to pass it. Before, I was afraid of water, swimming was no doubt my nightmare. So I had to conquer my fear. Then, practice was not a peanut. After each class, I forced myself to stay in the pool for a couple of hours to exercise. Upon I returned to my dorm, the whole body suffered from sharp sour pains. Finally, I made it. No wonder how thrilled I was and how great successful I felt for doing it.
13.Do you agree or disagree with the following statement? Watching TV is
not good for people’s daily life. Use specific reasons and examples to support your answer. 2009.9.25 NA
It’s untrue to think watching tv is disadvantageous for people’s daily life. First of all, watching tv is a great way of receiving information from all over the world. From commercials to president speech, tv does a decent job to spread all kinds of information to people in a wide rang. Second, watching tv is a good way of leisure such as tv series, movies, musical videos, talk shows, talent shows, test shows. Various programs flourish our life and provide us a relaxing environment.
Tv is a multifunction tool serving us. I think watching tv is helpful. In terms of entertainment, tv could offer various programs such as talent shows like the Voice, documentary like national geography, talk shows and tv series. After a stressful day, people want to watch some fun programs to relax. In terms of
education, actually, many specific programs are broadcast in tv. If you are interested in cooking and bakery, you would find a channel host by a French cook teaching cooking. If you like history, you would find historic program telling from ancient Egypt to post war china. Besides teaching skills, watching tv could help people enlarge their horizon too.
14.If a foreign tourist wants to visit your country, what should he or she pay
attention to? 2009.10.17
In my view, greeting style is the first thing should be noticed. In China, unlike western people, people don’t hug a lot and express respect in a humble way. For the first meeting they usually shake hands. Second, people’s title is another thing to mention. When Chinese people address to others, they don’t call them just by their name but by their job titles. In western, people call others’ first name directly, conversely in china it would be impolite.
15.Do you agree or disagree with the following statement? All children
should learn to draw or paint. 2009.10.10 NA
I don’t agree to force children to do something they don’t want to do voluntarily. Nature endows everyone different talent. Someone may be sensitive to color, shape, lines; someone could be more interested in melody, notes, keys and someone is very good at motion, run, jump. That’s why we have different careers. Second, forcing kids to learn things against their willing may hurt their real interest. What’ more not only hate they drawing or painting, but also learning itself.
16.Do you agree or disagree with the following statement? If a person wants
to be happy, he or she should like his or her job or work. Use specific reasons and examples to support your answer. 2009.10.23
I do think a person should like his career if he wants real happiness. Career is like a travel. What we need is not just a right destination but an enjoyable trip. During this trip, are the companions nice people? Does the leader support us a lot? Have we done the best? Those factors are all counted to judge happiness. For a job, money is not the only thing count for being happy but also self satisfaction.
17.Describe one thing that you’ve always wanted to do but haven’t done yet.
2009.117同上

21.Describe a time when you are asked to do something you don’t want to do,
and what happened as a result? 2009.7.25 NA
That was the most regrettable moment in my life. It happened in my college. My classmates and I were demanded to do a presentation. I was in charge of conclusion part. Well, at first though, I assumed that part was a easy work and it wouldn’t take me much time to prepare, even I didn’t need to prepare it at all. Then when my classmates asked me how about my conclusion, I just didn’t say the truth instead telling them I was ready. When that day came, I stood on the stage, I was scared. The biggest fear in my life walked to me and I failed to say a word but hello. My classmates were very disappointed and we didn’t have a good score that time because of my stupid arrogancy.
22.Describe a special event or occasion that you have participate with your
family or friends. 2009.07.25 同上
23.Do you like travel to somewhere you have never been to or the place you
have ever been. 2009.7.25
Well, not really. Actually I prefer to go somewhere I m already familiar with. Here’s the reasons: I m not risk taker. Going to some places I ve ever been made me feel secure and comfortable. I needn’t worry about where I could have a decent meal, where I could go shopping and where the nearest clinic is in case of emergency. Moreover, the advantages of a place will take time to discover. I don’t want to be a sightseeing visitor when I go to a certain place I really like. A great resort like a very old wine, need to taste slowly, gently and gracefully. So I would definitely choose an old place and travel again.
24.Describe your first-year school life. 2009.8.2
25.A most unforgettable success in your life. 2009. 11.14同上
26.What is the most important invention in your life? 2009.11.22 NA

29.Do you prefer to write a long essay or give a speech in frond of class for a
assignment?---2011.5.14
I would like to give a speech in class. First I m good at vertical skills, by giving
a speech I may express myself better than doing a paper. Word has more power than paper does. Besides the content, professor may also take my performance in count. That may help me to have a score for this class. Second, it would be an opportunity to communicate with classmates and let them know me better. After giving my points, others may want to add their own opinions then we could discuss it and learn more from each other. It’s an ideal learning approach that I d like to use in my study. That’s another advantage which a paper couldn’t bring.

36.Do you prefer to do your shopping in the store or online?---2010.5.14(NA) Personally, shopping in the store is my style. For one thing, when we girls go shopping, an important thing or I’d say a big joy is to try it, put on it and show off a little bit. We would be so cheerful even excited when we finally find out a right clothes after a lot of trials. For another, shopping isn’t just shopping for us. This is a sophisticated activity. It contains chatting, relaxing, walking, comparing and buying. Just sitting in front of a machine couldn’t taste all
those sweet emotions.
