Avoid foods with lots of sugar and fat. Eat plenty of high protein foods, vegetables and fruits. Do not overeat.

Give some specific examples to illustrate it.10.Do you think that the top students are usually successful in life?Give examples to support your view.1.Are you a happy person? What are the personality factors that happy peopleusually have?1. Happy people always look at situations positively. Instead of thinking about all that is wrong, think about all that is right in your life. Happy people look for the best in themselves and in people around them as they are naturally optimistic. They know how to alter negative positions into positive ones.2. Happy people usually know how to speak for themselves about what they feel and if they are not treated well.3. Happy people love, and enjoy listening to music. Remember that music always makes the world go round, especially for happy people.4. Happy people appreciate what they have and recognize the blessings that come their way. They know how to show appreciation and gratitude constantly.5. As happy people receive and share lots of love, compassion and affection, they enjoy life better. And in the process, find that they can sleep better.6. Happy people are both patient with people and things around them, and excitedly look forward to life every day. They are always ready and welcome the adventures life offers them.7. Happy people know their purpose in life and live to their passions. It is because of this that they are always learning new things, and are open to new and fresh ideas.8. Happy people are always ready to forgive themselves, and don’t beat themselves up for unavoidable mistakes.2.Should women stay at home or go out to work? Give examples to illustrate it.Women shouldn’t stay at home to raise their children.In today's society, women often feel that to be seen as successful, they should have to balance their career, children and their marriage. However, most women are force to stay at home to raise children and give up their own career. It’s unfair for women to devote all her lifetime in family instead of catching up the opportunities to live whatever they want. So our group insists that women shouldn’t stay at home to raise ch ildren, here is our main points.First, women and men are born to be equal, there’s no any saying that women are born to raise child and they have to scarify their own life. Women also have the ability and drive to do many things a man can do. They have the legal right as anyone else to decide what is best for them and their children.Second, in china, parents need a lot of money to raise children. A single income is not enough to comfortably support a family, especially those single families. Mothers have to get out working so as to ensure that their children have the best start in life. They can afford the best education and best quality of lifestyle.Third, many forms of childcare can be beneficial and complimentary to the care provided by parents. And I think this would help to improve children’s social skills and more independent than those who rely on their parents.Now we are in the modern society. Women should have their own freedom but not always listen to her husband or take care their children, parents and so on. You see, many women succeed nowadays. It means that women are not worse than men,on the other hand they are strong enough to get success.Staying at home to raise child is a good waySide B: Women should stay at home as housewives.(1) If husband and wife both go out to work, who will look after their children and parents? They will meet a lot of problems in their daily life.(2) China is a country with a large population. A lot of people can’t find jobs. We should encourage more women to stay at home to take good care of their family. Let men go out to earn money. So the quality of our family life will be improved.3.What is GM food? Talk about the benefits and risks of GM food.GM food is the abbreviation of the genetically modified food. Which is most commonly used to refer to crop plants created for human or animal consumption whose genetic makeup has been altered through a process called recombinant DNA.There are many advantages of it.Firstly, GM foods can fight world hunger. The world population has reached an all-time high of over 6 and a half billion. Over 20% of these are suffering from poverty and hunger. That GM foods can stop hunger is one of the noblest motivations behind the development of GM foods. Secondly, GM foods supposedly are easier to grow and bring higher yields. GM crops are designed to be sturdier and more robust than their non-modified cousins. They are meant to be resistant to drought, diseases, and pests. In poverty-stricken parts of the world, higher yields can save millions of lives and bring much-needed economic benefits.Thirdly, GM foods are good for the environment. The damage to the environment that insecticides such as DDT bring about is well-known. Growing GM foods can help eliminate the application of chemical pesticides and reduce the cost of bringing a crop to market. However, we cannot ignore some potential risks.Firstly, some people hold the view that it will bring the environmental hazards. It may reduce the effectiveness of pesticides. Just as some populations of mosquitoes developed resistance to the now-banned pesticide DDT, many people are concerned crops that have been genetically-modified to produce their own pesticides.Secondly,there may be harmful to human health. There is a growing concern that introducing foreign genes into food plants may have an unexpected and negative impact on human health.Thirdly, there are also economic concerns .Many new plant genetic engineering technologies and GM plants have been patented, and patent infringement is a big concern of agribusiness. Yet consumer advocates are worried that patenting these new plant varieties will raise the price of seeds so high that small farmers and third world countries will not be able to afford seeds for GM crops, thus widening the gap between the wealthy and the poor.4.Do you often play sports? What are the benefits of playing sports?Playing sports is something most of us love, isn't it? Undoubtedly, sports are a fun activity but they offer several health benefits too. Playing some sport regularly goes a long way in maintaining your physical and mental well-being. Sports help enhance your personality. They are a good source of both exercise and entertainment.Physical Benefits•Increased strength and stamina•Better body shape increased agility•They help burn calories and shed those extra pounds•They give the body a good exerciseSports serve as an excellent physical exercise. Those who play sports have a more positive body image than those who do not. Sports often involve physical activities like running, jumping, stretching and moving about which turn out to be a good body workout. For example basketball. Games that involve running, kicking or throwing a ball help strengthen the arms and legs.Psychological Benefits•They encourage you to give your best every time•They help build your planning and analytical skills and increase concentration•Sports boost confidence•They build leadership and team skillsPlaying sports is very beneficial for the development of social skills. Sports teach you to interact with people, communicate with them and collaborate as a team. Sports foster collective thinking and harness your planning and delegation skills too. Sports build confidence. Winning a game gives you a sense of accomplishment, which boosts your confidence further.So, when our mood was bad, we can do some sports, like running, playing basketball, that can make we feel better .Let’s remember that “For one hour daily exercise, healthy living life.”5.What is critical period? Give some specific examples to illustrate it.Critical Period is a period during the early life of an animal when some property develops rapidly, and is most susceptible to alteration by the environment. If the organism for some reason does not receive the appropriate stimulus during this "critical period" to learn a given skill or trait, it may be difficult, ultimately less successful, or even impossible, to develop some functions later in life.For example: Everybody knows that children learn languages most rapidly when young, and that it is more difficult when they become adult. Human infants are born with the ability to distinguish sounds in different languages, and lose some of this ability between six and twelve months when they start mouthing their own language.It is known that adults, well beyond the critical period, are more likely to suffer permanent language impairment from brain damage than are children, believed to be due to youthful resiliency of neural reorganizationAnother famous example is imprinting in birds, where a newly born chick will follow the first animal seen after birth, even if it is not its mother, and belongs to a different species.6.Why does a language always change? Give some specific examples to illustrateit.Languages change for a variety of reasons. Large-scale shifts often occur in response to social, economic and political pressures. History records many examples of language change because of invasions, colonization and migration. Even without these kinds of influences, a language can change dramatically if enough users alter the way they speak it.Examples:Frequently, the needs of speakers drive language change. New technologies, industries, products and experiences simply require new words. Plastic, cell phones and the Internet didn’t exist in Shakespeare’s time, for example.And unique way that individuals speak also fuels language change. That’s because no two individuals use a language in exactly the same way. The vocabulary and phrases people use depend on where they live, their age, education level, social status and other factors. Through our interactions, we pick up new words and sayings and integrate them into our speech. Teens and young adults for example, often use different words and phrases from their parents. Some of them spread through the population and slowly change the language.7.Do you have the problem of sleep deprivation? Talk about its causes andeffects.There are many causes of sleep deprivation. From illness, money and debt problems, stress in the workplace, divorce to moving home, and dissatisfaction with the current situation in your life. We may have medical or mental-health conditions that disrupt our sleep, and be well aware that we are sleep-deprived.The Dangers of Sleep DeprivationMany studies make it clear that sleep deprivation is dangerous. A person who loses one night’s sleep will generally be irritable and clumsy during the next day and will either become tired easilyToo little sleep may cause:∙Depression∙ A weakening of your immune system, increasing your chance of becoming sick ∙Increase in perception of pain●Memory LossYou probably know that on the days when you are most tired, you're forgetful and unfocused -- but sleep deprivation can lead to permanent cognitive issues. The less we sleep, the less we benefit from the memory-storing properties of sleep.●Hurt Your HeartThe stress and strain of too little sleep can cause the body to produce more of the chemicals and hormones that can lead to heart disease, according to a research. The study found that people who slept for six hours or less each night have higher risk of developing or dying from heart disease.●Poor Quality of Life:You might, for example, be unable to participate in certain activities that require sustained attention, like going to the movies, seeing your child in a school play, or watching a favorite TV show.8.What is faith? What’s the power of faith? Give example to illustrate it. According to a modern dictionary, faith is "unquestioning belief that does not require proof or evidence."Faith is the pressure of the Spirit on humanity, the force that urges humanity towards what is better, not only in the order of knowledge but in the whole order of spiritual life. Faith... a word which can make a heart stronger, a feel which can make a person Starve for their Dreams...You are right! How come after all a five letter word carry so much of Power?? But the power is not of that word! The power lies in us in our hearts. But we need to have some support in our every step.When you are in an unknown path and you don't know where the path leads you ... would you stop their waiting for someone to come and lead u? Or would u take the path along??? But if u believe though worse the path might be ahead, you can explore and lead you to success. And this is how you say that your faith made you successful.When we have faith in heart, we have the power to make some new, to change our lives etc. with the power of faith, we can move mountains because we are so strong that we can doeverything we want to do.9.What kind of advertisement do you like best? Give some specific examples toillustrate it.I think some of the best ads would be video ads of "Here's your problem. Look how easy we can make it go away."It also depends on what aspect of the market you’re trying to capture. Is it the enterprise level? Small companies? Or individual developers.I don’t really notice advertising…until an ad comes on for something I’m in the market to buy. For example, some years ago I was in the market for a computer. Ads for such aspect became attractive. My brain seemed to suddenly think there was secret information that would help me in my buying decision.The more you try to sell me something, the less I want to buy it. If I’m watching TV, and I see an advertisement for a product that might offer something useful to me, there are two things that will make me click it:✓✓ A clear description of the problem it solves and that i happen to have.✓✓ A registration-free trial download.I care nothing for endorsements, cited reviews, or famous existing customers. Unless or until I try and like your trial version.10.11.Do you think that the top students are usually successful in life?Give examplesto support your view.I don’t think so:In college, it’s all about grades. In the real world, it’s about experience. Because once you get past the first job, no one is ever going to ask you about your GPA (grade point average) or how many points on the final exam. What matters in the real world is your ability to adapt, innovate and get along. There are no paper tests or essay exams. There are no teaching material to hold review knowledge or to help you practice your memory. Real life is about how you succeed in your way, and that’s not something taught in a classroom.The greatest thinkers, leaders and entrepreneurs of our time have been the people to defy the rules and take risks. They were the ones getting C’s or flunking out. However, their “failures’ were not a factor of intelligence, but an inability to be weighed down by grades andsuperficial markings. Bill Gates, Steve Jobs are people who achieved a great amounts of wealth, status and success without ever really succeeding in a classroom. They are the men that by society’s standards, had failed.。

研究生口语考试对话考试对话
1. Instructors’ lecture or students’ discussion, which one will you prefer? Why?A: Hello B.B: Hello A.A: A few months ago, we have learned the lesson “College Lectures: Is Anybody Listening?”. So can I ask you a question?B: Yes, of course. What’s the question?A: Instructors’ lecture or students’ discussion, which one will you prefer?B: It is obvious that I will choose the latter, students’ discussion.A: Why, can you give me the reason?B: Well, I really don’t want to go to class to attend lecture, I think it is so boring. You know, every day we go to classroom and sit down, professors can pretend to teach by lecturing just as students can pretend to learn by attending lectures.A: Yes, what you say is really true. In the discussion, we are the leading role, and with strong initiative. But I think both of them are necessary. Because if we have never touched one topic, how can we discuss with others? In that situation we need instructor’s lecture.B: Ok, I agree with you. Let us go to have a discussion.A: Yeah, that must be funny!B: Yes, I hope so!2. Think of one teacher you liked very much and one teacher you didn’t like. What made you like one but dislike the other? What were their differences?A: Hi, B! I’m glad to see you!B: I’m glad to see you too! I want to ask you that which teacher you like best so far?A: Oh, let me see, I like my physics teacher best. Mr. Gao is my physics teacher in high school.B: En, why do you like him? Can you give me some information?A: Ok, I remember clearly that his class is very interesting, and he can use interesting way to explain boring physics formulas so that I can understand better and get high scores.B: I also met a good teacher, she is my college English teacher. She is very elegant, and her voice is very nice. But I don’t like my math teacher. Do you think what is the difference between the two teachers?A: I think we are influenced by their way of teaching, one gives us interesting lecture, but the other make class boring.B: Yes, I agree with you! Good teacher is important for students to study.A: Yeah! Your analysis is very wonderful. Thank you very much.B: You are welcome.3. Should we consider protecting animals or nature first, or should we think of the human needs first? And why?A: Hello B.B: Hello A.A: A few months ago, we have learned the lesson “Endangered Species vs. Human Needs”. So can I ask you a question?B: Yes, of course. What’s the question?A: Should we consider protecting animals or nature first, or should we think of the human needs first?B: Yeah. I think we should protect the animals and nature first. Because we can’t live a wonderful life without a good environment.A: That’s true. And I think the nature is the source of all things.B: That’s right. I think our environment has been seriously damaged, we must try our best to protect it.A: Yes, you are right. Nowadays we can see the economy grow very fast but our environment has already been polluted seriously, sometimes we need to think how to change this situation. We also advocate others to do this.B: So it is. But I think human needs is also very important, if we can find the balance between these two questions, maybe we can solve this problem better.A: OK, your analysis is very wonderful. Thank you very much.B: You are welcome.4. How do you think can human beings protect endangered species?A: Hello B.B: Hello A.A: A few months ago, we have learned the lesson “Endangered Species vs. Human Needs”. So can I ask you a question?B: Yes, of course. What’s the question?A: Do you think how can human beings protect endangered species?B: I think the government should take some measures to protect endangered species.A: In my opinion, we should also do our best to do this.B: Yes, I agree with your viewpoint. But I mean that the government should do the major job. The first is to make laws to protect endangered species. The other useful measure is to create protective areas which will create a safe environment for animals to live in.A: Yes, lots of species are disappearing. So our society, organization, individuals and the government need take part in the activity.B: So what about our students, which things can we do?A: We student can propagate those ideas about the importance of protecting endangered species. To protect the species is to protect the nature; and to protect the nature is to protect the human being. We can’t live a wonderful life without a good environment.B: Oh yes, if all of us can do a little for protecting endangered species, the situation will be better in the future.A: Well, so it is, and your analysis is very wonderful. Thank you very much.B: You are welcome.5. In your opinion, which should have a higher priority for men and women in modern society, personal pursuits or parenting ?What marriage behavior do you advocate?A: Hello B.B: Hello A.A: A few weeks ago, we have learned the lesson “Seven Tenets for Establishing New Marital Norms”. So can I ask you a question?B: Yes, of course. What’s the question?A: Do you think which should have a higher priority for men and women in modern society, personal pursuits or parenting ?B: In my opinion,we should spend more time and energy on personal pursuits as a man. Because in modern society, men must take the responsibility to sustain a family so that they have to work hard and pay more attention to personal pursuits.A: Yes, that’s right. And as to a woman, she can pay more time to parenting when you have a baby. So there is no doubt that she will take the responsibility to raise her child.B: And what marriage behavior do you advocate?A: I think young people should grow up with the expectation that they will marry only once and for a lifetime and that they will have children. Reproduction is a fundamental purpose of life, and marriage is instrumental to its success.B: Yes, we are also encouraged to marry later in life than is common now, and we are joining it.A: Yes, that’s right.6. Do you think children are central to a couple’s marriage and family life? What are the reasons that young people today choose to have no children ?A: Hello B.B: Hello A.A: A few weeks ago, we have learned the lesson “Seven Tenets for Establishing New Marital Norms”. So can I ask you a question?B: Yes, of course. What’s the question?A: When do you want to get married?B: 25 to 30. I think this is the best age of marriage.A: Yes, if you have a baby, do you think children are central to a couple’s marriage and family life?B: Form my viewpoint, I more hope to have a baby. Children can make our happy marriage life. In order to cultivate excellent children, parents should take their marriage as the center, rather than have children around all day.A: Yes, that’s true.B: But so many young people today choose to have no children. What do you think the reasons of this phenomenon?A: I think they worry about that children will become the burden of their lives. Career is more important, they are not willing to let children disturb their jobs. Especially in the western country this phenomenon isserious. In their opinion they can enjoy a better life without children.B: Yeah, your analysis is wonderful. I believe that no children is just an excuse to avoid responsibility. The children is a continuation of our lives.A: You are right. OK, Thank you for your discussion.B: You are welcome.7. Tell your partner a story about one of your personal experiences with biased behaviors, stating how stereotypes and bias affect our lives.A: Hello B.B: Hello A.A: A few weeks ago, we have learned the lesson “Don’t Let Stereotypes Wrap Your Judgment”. So can I ask you a question?B: Yes, of course. What’s the question?A: Do you have any personal experiences with biased behaviors, and what are those?B: Well, that’s right. As to me, I have the first impression of a person. If a person leaves a bad impression on me at first sight, I will dislike him; on the contrary, I will like him. In addition, if a teacher has dull class style, I will be bored. And maybe I won’t listen to him at all. Rather than, I like the teachers better who have interesting and inspirational courses, just like our English teacher !A: Yes, first impression is very important and most of us have it. We develop stereotypes when we are unwilling to obtain information weneed to make fair judgments about people or situations. Our society often unknowingly creates and perpetuates negative stereotypes, which often lead to unfair discrimination.B: Prejudices are pervasive in our society. We all stereotype and are all subject to being stereotyped by others. The stereotypes we use can be both positive and negative.A: Yes, we need to become aware of the stereotypes we have so that we can treat people fairly and understand the world objectively.8.

Explain your answer in detail.A:Hello,B.B:Hello,A.A:We have recently learned a famous sentence from Walter Lippman--For the most part we do not first see and then define; we define first and then we see. Can you explain your understanding of this sentence ?B:Oh,I think this sentence is very meaningful and should be deeply comprehended by us.A:Why do you say that? Can you explain in detail?B:OK, I think this is a subjectivity of human. Usually we begin toimagine appearance and some characteristics about them before we meet our new colleagues and students. Their name or personal resume maybe a main cause of these subjective imagination. Of course, this is a good example.A: Well, This example is very typical and representative. When we encounter with a new problem and a new situation, it is very necessary for us to keep the objective attitude.B: Yes, great invention always is from the objective practice and cognition.

A: Do you think love-based (liberal) marriage is more successful than arranged marriage?B: No, I don’t think so. Generally speaking, marriages based on love should be more successful than arranged marriages. But at present, arranged marriages have almost disappeared. Boys and girls go out on dates and gradually develop a love between them before they get married. Strangely, the divorce rate has kept rising. And the reasons for divorce can be very simple: “We can no longer commu nicate with each other very well” or simply “I’ve gotten bored with him or her.”A: I have different opinion. I think marriages based on love are more successful than arranged marriages. In my opinion, if two who didn't fall in love with each other before they married, their marriage would not as strong as that who loves each other.B: However, we should not go to extremes and claim(声称) that all arranged marriages are failures. After all, in the past 2000-plus years, most of the arranged marriages did survive, and some of the couples did develop real love after their marriages. On the other hand, our parents have more experience than us, most of them are good for us.A: Going out on dates, they will know each other better. In daily life, they know how to make a thing better and how to adapt to the other’s character and make life better. They have hobbies and words in common. But arranged marriages are not. They don’t know each other, even they don’t meet the other before. It’s hard to see, they will have a happy marriage.B: Actually, all the elements of a successful marriage, such as age, trust, understanding and respect, education level and so on. Whether love-based marriage or arranged marriage, they all need to know them. For arranged marriage, our parents will instead of us going to know them. Today, in our side it’s hard to see arranged marriages. But we can see so many couples get divorce who get married based on love.A: Yes, if we want to make our marriage more happiness, there are lots of things need to do after we getting married.B:Yes, I agree with your opinion.。

It can produce dry regions like the Sahara Desert.A: The land likes you say is not available for person, our available land will be fewer and fewer as time went by.B: But, some scientists said that people’s actions are the main reason.A: So you mean it is because of the way people how to use it and manage it?B: That’s it.

研一期末考试英语口语对话
The joy luck clubW:Hi!Y、L:Hi!Y:what did you do last night?W:I watched the joy luck club again. I think it is very different from other films.Do you remember it?Y:Sure. It is a story about love and conflicts between four daughters and their mothers.And the conflicts are caused by their generation gaps and growing backgrounds.L:Yes. The mothers grew up in China where there are many traditions and rules to follow. However, the daughters grew up in San Francisco and live in an American way.W:You are right. In this movie, the tender and complicated love between mothers and daughters certainly impressed me a lot. In my real life , I always have conflicts with my mother .Sometimes my mother think that I am disobedient, while I often complain that my mother does not understand me at all. After reading this book, I begin to think from my mother's stance.L: Well.It really tells us many things about generation gap and culture barriers which every one of us will encounter.It worths us thinking deeply.Y:However,I learned other things from it. I understand more about the importance of revealing one’s true nature and loving oneself through the stories of the characters, especially those of Lindo, Ying-ying, Lena and Rose. By revealing one’s true nature, one can find one’s real value in the world. Loving yourself is a necessity in life because it provides self-respect. If one respects oneself, one will respect and love others.W:You remind me. Lindo “keeps everything inside” and wasn’t able to experience love in her f irst marriage. Lindo hides “under a red marriage scarf” in attempt to keep herself away from the outside world. By hiding under the scarf, she pretends that to be able to love.L: Ying-ying is also an example of the desire to remain hidden as she says, “Al l these years I kept my true nature hidden, running along like a small shadow so nobody could catch me.” The image of the shadow relates directly to the red marriage scarf.Y: They both attempt to conceal their true natures, because they are afraid to reveal their true self which may be painful. Love proves hard to gain but Lindo learns to embrace it and accept it as best she can.W: Finally she gets rid of her first marriage and begins a new life in America. By revealing her own true nature, she finds a new self. Ying-ying also gets out of her own shadow by telling her daughter her tragedy in china.Y:I hope we will think more about our true nature and value.What’s more?What about you,L?L:Well.In this movie, the conflicts are resolved, perfectly. it seems that the novel is characterised to be sentimental. In a sense, based on my own experiences, the differences existing is left unresolved. on another level, Iwonder if it shows the significant power of family on people's life. Despite the fact that they grow up overseas and are educated through western systems, their roots are Chinese.Y:Yeah.Perhaps it truly expressed this.W:Oh,What a cool film!Everyone has obtained something from it respectively. THAT’S ALL.THANK YOU.。
口语对话 华师研一英语
1. Mass media, parents, peers and schools are the agents of consumer socialization. Please explain these four agents in the process of consumer socialization.A: Well, our oral topic is about consumer socialization.B:When it comes to consumer socialization, I will think of my parents, who pass on many consuming habits to me. The socialization of family members, ranging from young children to adults, is a central family function. Today that function includes developing children into consumers. For example, I am inclined to consume the same milk and skin care products, which have been regarded as good products since I was a child. How do you think about it?C: Oh, maybe I can't agree with you. I attach more importance to mass media when we talk about the consumer socialization. Since we can read, listen, and see, the advertisements are all around us, inciting us to buy, buy and buy. When some famous stars earning a large sum of money represent the products, whose posters are hung in the street meaning that hey, I have it, you need it too.D:And the peers! Nowadays, we would tend to own some products that our peers own, which due to peer-pressure. We are inclined to imitate our guys who are at the same age with us. However, in the student period, we are taught to be a diligent and thrifty student. It always reminds me to save money and not extravagant waste.A: Yes, in one word, many factors play important role in processing of consumer socialization. We should cultivate good habits of consumption. In my opinion, rational consumption should be independent, so don’t follow the crowd blindly. Besides, we should keep a balance between material consumption and spiritual consumption.2. What might be the causes of allergy? Please give a brief description of the causes.A: Well, as we all know, there is a large sum of people who suffers from the allergy. They may cough, sneeze, and vomit. Sometimes, the allergy even leads to a dramatic drop in blood pressure by extreme respiratory distress that may be fatal without prompt treatment when they come into contact with the allergen.B: Yes, it’s horrible for people to touch the allergen. What’s worse, almost any food can trigger an allergy, although eight categories account for 90% of all reactions: milk, eggs, peanuts, tree nuts, fin fish, shellfish, soy and wheat. In this way, allergy is hard to avoid.C:How to explain the causes of the allergy? In my opinion, maybe it has some sort of genetic predisposition. I take my family as an example. In my family, all of us except my mother are allergic to the flower pollen.D: I don’t agree with you. Genetics cannot explain the rapid rise in allergies over the past few years or, for that matter, centuries. So something must have changed in the environment. One obvious place to look is air pollution.A: Yeah, Beijing is famous for its air pollution now. But in some area where the economy is backward and the air is clean, there are still a lot of allergy cases. How do you explain that?B: As we all know, an allergy is an overreaction by the immune systems to a foreign substance.C: Do you have heard of the “hygiene hypothesis”? It explains that the human immune system, which evolved in a natural environment full of hostile bacteria and parasites, finds itself have nothing to do in the clean modern suburb, and tend to takes out its frustration on harmless peanuts and shrimp.D: All explains sound reasonable. If we are too unluckily to get some allergy, we should take urgent measures in time to prevent more horrible hurts. In daily life, we should give extra attention to things which cause allergy.3、Should higher education be an elite education? Should higher education be available to all students or only to good students? Please state your opinions.A: Nowadays, more and more superiority resources gather in some universities, such as high-end teaching techniques, luxury accommodation and so on. As we can see, the higher education tends to be an elite education. How do you think of this phenomenon?B: Well, I don’t agree with it. The elite education has a lot of disadvantages. First of all, it makes you incapable of talking to people who aren’t like you, which will do no help to our future development.C: Yes. The elite education inculcates a false sense ofself-worth. In this way, you learn to think of yourself in terms of the rankings and grades. However, those numbers really measure your identity, not your value.D: I agree with you. These numbers really test the ability to take tests, but even if they measure something real, it’s only a small slice of the real. The problem begins when the students all forget the truth.A: Besides, the disadvantage of elite education is that when elite universities boast that they teach their students how to think, they mean that they teach them the analytic and rhetorical skills necessary for success in law or science.B: However, a humanistic education is supposed to mean something more than that.C: In this way, our higher education should be available to everyone in the world. Everyone are born equal especially when in confront of knowledge. That’s why so many massive open online courses (MOCC) are open to all over the world.D: Let me conclude our views. The higher education shouldn’t be an elite education. What’s more, the higher education should be available to all students even all people.4、Please give your comments on the pros and cons of cosmetic surgery.A:Cosmetic surgery has become so popular in the world,and China is no exception,Experts estimate that 30 percent people who make cosmetic in Seoul are Chinese. Different factors contribute to the hot Cosmetic surgery. Can you list some factors about it?B:Yes,Firstly,I think technology has progressed so fast, which makes it a reality to do cosmetic surgery. As prices keep coming down,more and more people are electing to do Cosmetic surgery. Can you say someting about it?C:Of course, I think this is a factor too, that is : people have the instinct to pursue beauty, because we both think that good-looking people are more popular than people who don’t look good, so we are both try to make us more beautiful. Do you think so?D:Yes, I agree with that, and I want to add one point. In my opinion, the popularization of Cosmetic surgery is also linked to the change of people’s perception of beauty, in recent years Western notions of beauty have been popular, more and more Asians are pursuing that notions.A:What you just said are reasonable .Cosmetic surgery has been so popular,we should both consider the advantages and disadvantages of cosmetic surgery.What’s your opinions about it?B:As we all know, the biggest advantage of cosmetic surgery is its ability to turn an ordinary face to a very lovely one. It can make up for your regret of your body, your face or any other part of your body.Do you agree with me?C:Yes,you are right.As a result of that,people may become confident in your daily life, which will make them energetic in their work, so they may make greater achievements in theircareer. From this point of view, cosmetic surgery fulfills people’s dreams.What’s your opinion,奉献?D:Yes,I agree with what you just said,however, as we all know, every coin has two sides. When we sing high praises for cosmetic surgery, we should not ignore its bad effects. I think the biggest threat hidden behind the cosmetic surgery is its insecurity. Many tragic incidents have been reported recent years that one gets hurt or blind or even dead when she adopts a cosmetic surgery,we shouldn’t ignore the fact.Do you think so?5、When choosing first names for their children, parents may have different reasons. Please illustrate the major reasons.A:Names are a culture universal.A person's name can tell us a bit about a person's family. Those are all beautiful names.Then how do the parents choose names for their children?Do you have something to say?B:Yeah,in my apinion, I think that the traditional way is by family history. Parents may choose a name because it is passed from generation to generation; for example, the first born son might be named after his father or grandfather.What do you think about it?C:I also see some parents provide a "push" for the child when choosing names for their kids. Parents want to choose a name that sounds very "successful." A strong name might help them in the business world, for example. Or they might choose a name that works for either gender, like Taylor or Terry. How about you?D:Well,I know that some parents may choose a name after a family member or friend who has died recently, or after someone "they admire, like a well-known leader or a famous musician. Although most English first names mean something, for example, "Richard" means powerful and “Ann" means grace, nowadays meaning is not the main reason people select their baby's name.A:Oh, I think that some parents choose names casually. Many parents choose a name simply because they like it, or because it's fashionable or classic. Fashions in names change just as they do in clothes.6. Do you agree with the saying that English is a global language? Why or why not? Please state your reasons.A:Nowadays many of us learn and use English as a second language, and even use English to communicate with other people who speak English as a second language. So do you think English is a global language? Why or why not?B: Let me think .Err, English is a global language, I reckon. First of all, English is the dominant language of business, travel and science. When people need a common language, they often use English. For example, we often use English at tourist information center, in international hotels, at airports.C:yeah ,I agree with B.If you want to take a taxi in Paris, and you can’t speak French, the taxi driver is more likely to use English than any other languages. English is used every day by many people. People all over the world come in contact with each other in English.D:At the same time ,English is the official language of more than 75 countries. These countries use English in schools, banks, business and government. This reason support the global argument is that every year about 1 billion people study English .People want and need to learn English because it offers them opportunities.A: You have given us many examples of how English is used in a variety of situations. Nevertheless, does this mean that English is a global language? I am afraid not. I don’t believe English has replaced other languages. First, there are about 3 times as many people who speak Chinese as their first language as those who speak English as a first language. Second, you mentioned before that 75 countries have English as their official language. But this doesn’t mean all, or even most of the people in these countries can speak English. For example,in India, most sources agree that only about 5 percent of the population speaks English .That’s a small percentage!B:Even I consider English is a global language, it can’t replace other Language. It offers us opportunities. Most people may learn only the English words they need for their jobs, and therefor they can’t be considered English speakers. They still use their first language for daily communication. English is not their main language.C:Hum, what you say make sense. So it’s safe to say that English is a main language used in many international settings. However, it won’t replace other languages.D: I agree with you. We still want to learn English, but we won’t give up our own language and culture. Our own language is an essential symbol that distinguishes us from other nations in the world.7. What are the characteristics of a phobia? What are the two theories about the causes of phobias? Please give a brief report of phobias.A: Today we ‘re going to turn to a new topic in psychology and start looking at some specific psychological problems. I want to start the discussion by talking about a fairly common kind of psychological problem----a phobia. So,What are the characteristics of a phobia?B: I have read a book about it .I know a characteristic of a phobia. First, a phobia is not a rational response. It’s a very strong reaction, too strong for the situation. For my brother who has computer phobia ,this meant he had a very strong physical reaction if someone asked him to use a computer .he start shaking violently and had a trouble breathing .C: There are other two characteristics of a phobia. A phobia often lasts for a long time, for months or even years . The other one is that the reaction is too strong for a person to control .For example ,even if my brother told himself not tobe afraid at the computer ,it did’t help .he still felt very afraid .D:It is difficulty to control it by trying to deny you feel the phobia. A newspaper said that there are two theories about the causes of phobias. What are the two theories about the causes of phobias?A:One theory says that the phobia is the phobia itself. And the second istheory says that the phobia is a sign of a deeper problem the person have .so it’s important in deciding how to treat the person .B:according to the first theory, if a phyobia islearned ,perhaps it can be unlearned. A psychologist who follows this theory will try to terch someone to react differently, to behave differently when he or she feels afraid. So ,changing the people ‘s behavior is the goal .C:I think a psychologist who believes the second thory may start by trying to teach the person to react differently ,but the doctor is interested in more than that .The doctor’s goal is to help the patient reveal the deeper psychological problem,because it will be easier to treat the phobia if the deeper problems is identified and worked on as well.D:With a long discussion ,I have a clear understangding about phobia .As a University student,we should learn Knowledge about psychology ,and find some ways to help other people who have phobia.8. Please describe three waves of immigration in the USA. (e.g. Where did the immigrants come from? Why did they choose to immigrate? etc.)A: Hello, today we will talk about immigration.
