雅思强化口语精讲班第8讲讲义
雅思口语内部资料(修订版)第8部分
第八部分：雅思口语第三部分Discussion实战策略Ps: 第三部分里，话题和问题的焦点完全改变了—考官问的问题不再关乎考生和考生的生活。
第三部分总体关注的焦点是“其他人”或者“社会整体”。
第三部分的问题也许关于考生国家发生的事情，一般性事件（没有特定的地点），或者可能是关于全球性的问题。
总之，问题涉及面会比第2部分要广，内容也要更为深刻！难度当然更大！考生的第二部分话题与第三部分话题之间有直接的联系。
考官会根据你的回答观点，或者与卡片本身相关的话题进行拓展问题提问。
需要记住的重要一点是在第三部分考生的实际观点也是不会被归入评分范围的。
没有人会在意你是否对萨科奇会见达赖有何看法或是孟买恐怖袭击作何真正感想，考官仍注意你的语言本身。
Part three question type 1: comparing 对比类●Time comparison 时间对比Are houses nowadays, the same as houses 30 years ago in your country?●Social group comparison 社会群体对比Do men and women like the same types of books?Do old and young people like the same holidays?●Geographic comparison 地域对比“Are houses in North China the same as houses in South China?”“Do men and women like the same hobbies?”一般回答：“I like men and women like different hobbies, for example men are fond of many types of sporting activities such as football and basketball. Also they prefer things like watching action movies and going to bars, but women like hobbies such as shopping, watching TV, singing KTV and chatting online.”模范答案：“Well obviously there are a number of clear differences. However, I guess that the most significant would be that men tend to prefer sporting activities such as football or basketball. Whereas in contrast women prefer things like shopping for clothes. In addition to this, another possible distinction might be that men usually like watching films; while on the other hand, women are more likely to prefer watching soap operas on TV.”开场白:Well obviously… Well undoubtedly…..Well clearly….Well unmistakably….Sure, without a doubt…Unquestionably…关于“有区别”的概述（类似第一部分的类型类问题，相关表达可以互换）:There are a number of underlying differences here.There a variety of possible differences here.There are a range of potential distinctions here.突出特点1:However, I guess that the most significant would be that…Though I suppose that the most obvious would be that…But I would say the most fundamental would be that…细节1：Especially, particularly, in face, such as, for example, specially.对比转折（-1）：Whereas on the other hand…On the contrary…Though quite the opposite…引入第二组对比的第一个特点（2）：In addition…On top of this…Additionally…Moreover…As well as this…After that…Say there is another important difference.…a second key distinction would be that……a d subsequent contrast could be that……a further distinction might be that…第二个对比转折（-2）：While on the other hand…Conversely…Alternatively…Then again, in opposition…时间方面进行对比（used to do 本身就有非常强的对比性，表示过去做，现在一定不做了！）：….used to be much smaller……didn’t use to have as many…….always used to be more……didn’t use to be as…练习：Are schools nowadays the same as schools in the past?Are TV programs nowadays the same as TV programs in the past？Are restaurants now days the same as restaurants in the past?Are free-time activities nowadays the same as 20 year s ago in your country?Are shops nowadays the same as shops when you were younger?Are trips nowadays the same as trips that your parents had when they were young?Part Three Question type 2: Predicting预测类What will houses be like in the future?The following answer is quite common for this type of question:一般回答：“I think that in the future, houses will be much bigger, and maybe they will be in some strange places such as on the moon or under the sea.”模范答案“Certainly, I’m sure that most people would agree that there will be a number of major changes related to this. Initially, I guess that we might be gin to see houses that are much bigger. At the same time, I suppose it’s quite probable that we may have houses under the sea. And who knows, it could even be possible that we’ll see the arrival of houses on the moon.”…I guess that we might begin to see……I suppose it’s quite probable that we may have……who knows, it could even be possible that we’ll see…Certainly, I’m sure that most people would agree that there will be a number o f major changes related to this.I’m sure that in years to come we will see a number of changes related to this.I reckon that in the not so distant future there are going to be a few imminent changes with regard to…I imagine that in the near future, we w ill witness some major changes with regard to…介绍第一种预测情况：Initially, I guess that we might begin to see…To begin with, I’d predict that we will most likely have…Primarily, it looks quite probable that we are going to have…First of all, I would envisage that we are going to have…介绍第二种预测情况：At the same time, I suppose it’s quite probable that we may have…As well as this, some people claim that we will probably start to see…On top of this, I imagine it’s quite likely that we will soon have…Likewise, I would imagine that we may even be able to see…一般情况下，两种预测就足够了；但如果真的想介绍第三种预测，不妨尝试一个夸张预测来调节气氛：And who knows, it could even be possible that we’ll see the arrival of…And you never know, it could even transpire that we’ll have…And I know it’s a bit of a crazy thought, but one day we may even have…And w ho knows, there’s even a chance that we will have…练习：What will schools be like in the future?What will restaurants be like in the future?What types of people will become famous in the future?What will shops/ shopping habits be like in the future?What will public transport be like in the future?Part Three Question Type 3: Why questions原因表述类“Why do so many people want to be famous?”一般回答：“In my opinion there are many reasons. Firstly people think they can make more money, live in a big house, drive an expensive car and travel around the world.”模范回答：“In my opinion I guess I would have to say that there are probably a number of factors involved. Primarily, one key motivation would be because they think they would be able to make more money. As well as this a subsequent incentive might be because they want to live in a big house and drive an expensive car.”开场白：说明原因有很多—概述Well in my opinion I guess I would have to say that…Well i n my view, I suppose I would say that…Well in my estimation, I guess that…Well generally it’s my belief that…原因多……There are probably a number of factors involved.There are obviously a number of motives surrounding this idea.There are unquestionably a number of explanations for this.There are undoubtedly a variety of justifications behind this.主要原因The chief cause might be that…The main basis is probably because…The key explanation is possibly because…第二个原因As well as this, a subsequent factor cou ld be because…At the same time, a secondary motive could be that…Additionally, a further rationale might be due to the face that..练习：Why is it important to protect old / historical buildings?Why do so many people move from the countryside to cities?Why is it important to protect the environment?Why do people like to know about the private lives of famous people?Part Three Question Type 4: Advantages利弊讨论类“What are the advantages of traveling by train?”一般回答：“I think there are many advantages; for example it is quite cheap, it’s usually faster than road travel, you can usually take a train to any destination and you can sleep on the train.”模范回答：“Well I suppose that there are quite a few clear benefits, but I would probably say that for the most part, the one thing that really stands out is that trains are really cheap, especially for long distance travel—you can travel from one side china to the other for a few hundred Yuan. I guess that another obvious plus point is that it is much faster than traveling by road—so you can save time by traveling on trains. Along with this, a further merit is that you can sleep quite comfortably on long train journeys.”Well I suppose that there are quite a few clear benefits.Clearly there are a number of obvious merits.Sure there are a few favorable aspects.Obviously there are a number of positive features.最突出的优点：But I would probably say that for the most part, the one thing that really stand out is that…But it goes without saying that the most apparent would be that…Although I guess that the most visible would be that…However, I guess that the most evident wo uld be that…这个优点的原因:（关于原因的表述，可参考第一部分当中关于原因描述的相关表达）This is obviously favorable because…This is undoubtedly positive for the simple reason that…This is without doubt beneficial because…第二个优点（注意连接词）:At the same time a second bonus might be that…Besides this, a second plus point could be that…As well as this a further favorable aspect would be that…第二个优点的原因：This is clearly advantageous because…This is definitely valuable since…This is surely a positive feature because…练习：What are the advantages of traveling by car?What are the advantages of having a private car?What are the advantages of zoos?What are the advantages of playing team sports?Part Three Question Type 5: DisadvantagesPS：一般情况下，一个关于弊的问题都会出现在一个关于利的问题后面“What are the advantages of train travel?”(Your answer)“Are there any disadvantages?”模范答案：“I think it’s fair to say that there are a few negative aspects. I suppose the most unfavorable quality might be that trains are often overcrowded at certain times of year. This is a clear limitation because on a long journey you might not be able to find a seat which means you have to stand up for hours. At the same time, another stumbling block might be that train tickets are sometimes difficult to buy, especially around spring festival, and this can be a hassle because it means you can’t always travel on the actual day that you want to. ”开场白—同样是对于有很多缺点/劣势的概述：I think it’s fair to say that there are a few negative aspects.I’m sure most people wo uld agree that there are some drawbacks.Of course there are a couple of shortcomings.最主要/突出的劣势/缺点：I guess the most impractical characteristic would be that…I suppose the most unfavorable quality might be that…Unquestionably, the most adverse feature would be that…导致这个缺点的原因：Most people would agree that this is problematic because…This is an obvious weakness because…This is a clear limitation because…第二个缺点：Correspondingly, an additional weak point may b e that…Supplementary to this, a further han dicap may be that…At the same time,, another stumbling block might be that…形成的原因：And the trouble with this is that…And this can be a hassle because…This is usually an aggravation because…练习：What are the disadvantages of air travel?What are the disadvantages of shopping in supermarkets?What are the disadvantages of using technology in education?What are the disadvantages of going on holiday in foreign countries?Part Three Question Type 6: Problems问题类PS：这类问题其实并不常见，但如果你在第二部分被问到的是关于nature, environment, social problems or global problems.这类的问题，那你就要小心了。

Does your name have any special meaning?Well, I am not sure. I guess there is something special about it, but I never asked my grandpa this question. He is the person who gave me my name. Well, I don‟t know. It‟s just a very common girl name. Actually, I was somewhat annoyed back in high school. People always mistook me for another girl in my class who had exactly the same name.3. Why do some people change their name?To be frank, I don‟t know why bu t I can only assume that they are not very happy with their names given by others. They want to be in control of everything in their life.12. What are the advantages of studying instead of working?When studying, I only had to worry about my exams. But now, I have to worry about my unpaid bills, my mortgage and my children‟s exams.19. Do you agree that there should be a world language for everyone? Yeah, I can‟t agree more. I really feel it‟s a huge waste of time to learn a second language from other country when we can work out a way for everyone to speak the same language. I think Esperanto is a great idea.21. Do you agree that people will get married even later in the future? Why?I strongly feel that people are on the way to that, but it‟s difficul t to explain the reason. Maybe it‟s probably the increasing geographic mobility that makes we feel we have more choices when it comes to dating and marrying, so we keep thinking we can find someone better than we have.Yes, I believe so. Personally, I think people marry later partially because of a decline in the belief of a firm and long-term commitment. What‟s more, living together without getting married is no longer considered disgraceful by young people, so the question for them is “why should we get married if we can live together without a wedding?”49. Do you have brothers or sisters?No. I don‟t have brothers or sisters. Actually, I am the only child in my family. You know, most of the people about my age are the only child in their family,which is mainly due to the birth control policy in China.55. Do you prefer to live in a small family or in a large family?Well, I don‟t really care whether it‟s large or small, as long as I stay with my beloved family. Just as the saying goes, “You don‟t choose your family. That‟s the God‟s gift to you, as you are to them.”It‟s true that people living in a smaller family enjoy more mobility and independence, but if I get to choose, I would prefer a large family with relatives caring for, loving and supporting each other, which I think is more important to me.60. Do you live in a flat or a house?Well, I live in a flat. It‟s a kind of old building which has been converted into a six-floor flat house. And I live on the third floor.64. Can you describe the community you live?I moved to my new apartment only about a year ago. My community is a relatively new residential area with several high-rises around. To be frank, I don‟t even know my next-door neighbor. It seems that people all keep to themselves, which is not what I like about my community.70. Why are holidays important to you?Having a holiday is taking a break. During holidays I can do something I really I want to do, say reading a book I didn‟t finish 2 years ago or hanging around with friends to catch up things.87. How has housework changed in your family in the past few years? Obviously, household chores are no longer for women exclusively. Men are increasingly aware of the significance of sharing housework with their wives, which is beneficial for the family harmony.88. What’s your favorite sport?I‟m very into basketball, you know. I‟m a huge fan of Michael Jordon. Playing basketball is a lot of fun. For example, you get to meet new friends.89. Why is exercise good for you?It is without doubt that doing exercise can be very rewarding. It helps to control body weight, maintain strength and improve immunity. What‟s more, doing exercise helps to develop co-ordination and team spirit.99. Why do you think some people are very into extreme sports?I think the fear that drives many people away from the risks of extreme sportsmay be the same ingredient that keeps others coming back for more. For some, life is all about adventures, risks and challenges.106. Can we learn more from television or from books?Both are educational, I believe. Television appeals to young teenagers more, whereas books are attracted to older people. Personally, I‟m more into reading. Just like what people say, “if you read a lot of books, you‟re consideredwell-read; b ut if you watch a lot of TV, you‟re not considered well-viewed. 121. What do you think are healthy foods?Vegetables, of course. All vegetables are naturally low in fat and full of vitamins, minerals and fiber. Actually, vegetables are a must on my diet.To be frank, I don‟t really see the point of arranging foods into a “healthy food”class or an “unhealthy food” class. What we should realize is that it is our choice of food and our eating habit that really matters. So I feel it is really unfair to describe pizza, chips and ice cream as junk food. Without them, eating seems to be less fun.123. Can you consider why fast food restaurants in your town are popular?It‟s true that fast food restaurants like KFC and McDonald‟s are very popular here. They can be found on almost all high streets. I guess people are always ready to try some exotic foods from other countries. And these western fast food restaurants are clean, casual and comfortable, which have become fashionable social bases.131. Can you consider the difference between men and women in their shopping habits?Concerning shopping, I think men and women hold distinct attitude. For men, shopping happens when their socks wear out. However, women shop even if the wardrobes are full. Apparently, women‟s desire to shop is endless and this is something men can never understand.139. Is it helpful to teach music courses in high school?Certainly. It makes a good compensation for other courses like math and physics, which I think are very dull and boring. Singing together with my schoolmates is much more fun.140. Are there any negative effects if children are taught to play a musical instrument?Well, it is hard to say. Personally, I believe that it is undoubtedly of great benefit to a child‟s musical devel opment. However, some children who are forced by their parents to play a musical instrument don‟t really think so. Iguess they have their reasons.149. How do the old people look at young people fashion?If you ask me, though I haven‟t hit 50, I think a daringly fashionable miniskirt is always considered dangerously inappropriate by old people. But I can see why they have strong reaction. Once you hit 50, it is time to think twice about miniskirts.151. What do you think of the fashion today?“Unexplainable” is the only word for me to explain fashion. But I do feel there are many people strongly influenced by it, otherwise there won‟t be so many fashion victims walking on the streets, who wear unreasonably expensive clothes but look perfectly ridiculous.164. In what ways has tourism changed your country?I‟m not so sure but by attracting more foreign visitors, tourism helps to boost economy and create more jobs. At the same time, in order to enhance the city‟s image, the government pays more attention t o the renovation and maintenance of the infrastructure. So tourism benefits not only individuals but a country as well.168. What is the public transport like your town?I reckon the choices of public transport are sufficient here in the town. There are taxi, bus and subway which is a relatively newcomer. However, like most of the other big cities, traffic congestion was and is a serious problem. Now with the government‟s urge to revitalize automobile industry, the number of private cars is dramatically increasing, which makes the present problem even worse. 169. How do you think it could be improved?This is a question needing quite some consideration. As far as I‟m concerned, what sounds more feasible at the moment is to discourage private car driving but to schedule more public transport like buses.184. Can you consider any negative effects watching TV might cause? Undoubtedly, TV entertains people. However, TV violence is what worries parents most. In order to attract and hold audiences, TV violence has become so graphic that children may be more likely to behave in aggressive or harmful ways towards others.The effects of television seem to be more intensive on younger viewers. The more time children spend watching TV, the less time they are spending doing other important activities like reading, getting exercise, being outdoors and talking with families. Consequently children have such problems like lower reading scores, obesity and poor physical fitness.190. Do you think festivals are important for a country?Yes, I think so. Every country has traditional festivals. These festivals, apart from its religious importance, also help in creating social, cultural and emotional bonds among people. Besides, people get to have holidays during big festivals like Chinese New Year.192. How do you compare the Chinese festivals with the western festivals?As far as I know, western festivals are counted according to solar calendar, whereas Chinese festivals use lunar calendar. That‟s why Chinese New Year is not the first day of the year on solar calendar. One another difference is that Chinese festivals are not as religious as the western ones.196. Do you agree that weather could affect people’s mood or personality?I think so. From what I read in the book, when we are exposed to sunlight, our body makes lots of Vitamin, which produce a substance in the brain to affect our mood. If we don‟t have enough of this substance, we can become depressed.I guess certain amount of sunbath makes us happier.201. How do you usually make friends?Frankly speaking, I‟m not the sort of person who always takes the initiative to say hi to a total stranger. So most of my high school and college friends are either my next seat fellow or dorm mate. It is the geography that makes people and me much closer.203. Do you think friends are important to your life?Certainly. Friends are not only those who we have fun with; they are the people we turn to for help. Besides, our relationships with friends partially determine our preferences, attitudes and values. Friends always share something in common.206. What is the relationship between colors and personality?I firmly believe that different personality types are influenced by different shades of colors. I think those outgoing and enthusiastic people prefer warm colors like yellow, peach and beige. For those sensitive and shy people, blue and purple are their favorites.PART TWOSample Answers(These sample answers are for your reference only.)Describe a person you like most in your family.Describe a family member you are close to.Describe a person who is similar to you in your family.Describe a person you admire.The person I like most in my family is my mother. My mum is a petite woman with short wavy hair. She is in her mid 40s but still looks quite young for her age. My mum works in a primary school. She teaches Chinese. She is very patient and gentle so the children in the school love her and so do the neighbor kids. When staying with young children, my mum always looks young and passionate. People all say that I look like my mum more than my father. I have got my mother‟s big eyes and high cheekbones. In many ways, we share many interests in common. We both like listening to pop music and watching comedies. On weekends, we often go shopping together. But we are also different. My mum fancies exotic plants and she loves gardening. Our balcony is always green throughout the year. But I have no idea about gardening, no interest at all. To me, my mum sometime is more like a friend. We share many things and do a lot of things together. She is very supportive and encouraging. She always gives me advice on my study and work but she never controls me. She lets me choose my own path in my life. So, yes, my mum is the one I like most in my family.Describe a person you admire.Describe a family member you are close to.The person I admire is my father. My father is a stocky man of average height. He is in his mid fifties. He‟s got small eyes and wears a moustache. He is also going a bit thin on top. In fact, he is going bald. My father is not attractive but he is the person who has always provided encouragement and support for my family. He displays strength and toughness but has never failed to express his love for me and my mother. He is very sincere and loyal to his friends and family. He is not a rich man but he has provided well for his family by working hard. My father has made huge sacrifices to save enough money to educate me through university and to buy a good apartment in the city centre. My father lives a small but valuable life. In my mind, he is a great man with many outstanding qualities.。

力，人人都有压力。不过，对于不
同的人来说，具体感受到的压力是
什么，可能不完全相同；压力的来 源也不完全一样。下面故事中的主
角，一个刚走出大学没几年的年轻
人，他生活中的压力究竟是什么呢？
让我们一起来听听。
词语：具体，武汉，外资，打拼，偏，真心，好心，*甩，*轻易
1．“我”现在是一种什么样的状况？ 感觉生活中来自方方面面的压力都非常大。 2．“我”的经济压力主要是来自什么方面？ 在很偏的地方租了房子，要付房租，还得攒钱买房子。 3．为什么“我”一直都觉得很疲劳？ 公司经常加班，因为住得比较偏，所以回到家差不多都是深夜。每天睡 不了几个小时，又要早起赶公共汽车去上班。 4．对于“我”来说，处理人际关系是一件什么样的事情？ 是我遇到的一个很大的难题，也是一种压力。 5．在这方面，最让“我”感觉失落的是哪种情况？ 有时候自己明明是一片好心，却说错了话，得罪了人。 6．感觉压力太大的时候，“我”也想怎么样？ 觉得自己快承受不了了，很想一甩手回老家算了。 7．但是最后，“我”又是怎么说服自己要坚持下去的？ 冷静下来想想，自己辛辛苦苦读了十几年书，不就是为了离开农村，到 大城市里来生活吗？现在已经到了大城市了，怎么可以轻易放弃呢？ 8．你觉得，“我”对自己的未来是什么态度？

Bobby 解析《剑桥雅思8》口语
Bobby 解析《剑桥雅思8》口语－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－文章源于北雅Bobby老师博客空间各位同学们“HIGH”最近很多同学对新出版的”剑8”的关心和关注有所提高。
其实我个人感觉”剑8”是让我很失望，没什么新的东东，又是一堆考过的题。
关于阅读，听力和写作“刘洪波”老师已经说的很详细了，加上4月10日下午2点还安排了一个针对“C8” 的公开课同学们可以去听。
有些同学要求开设关于解析"剑8"的课程，我觉得没有这个必要，而且使同学们浪费时间和金钱。
过段时间我觉得许多学生都会得到”剑8”，加上我和刘老师对”剑8”的解析，大家会清楚了解它。
原来4日10日下午我也想和大家见面，跟雅思教父一起给你们分析分析“C8” 但9日和10日我在石家庄分校有讲座所以you know …ANYWAY，关于“C8” 的speaking 部分没什么很吸引人的地方。
都是很老很老的题。
有一些题目今年考的可能性还是比较大但也有一些题目再次出现有点难。
我们一个一个来分析哈:TEST 1 - SPEAKINGPART 1 test 1 -part 1 的题目是2006年的。
已经考了5年了，考这一些题目的可能性不大，但不能排除同类型的题继续出现所以同学们好好准备一下关于“住宿和Living environment” 方便的问题(该类题在我今年元月出的Bobby’s 2011 IELTS口语大全的第9页–这是内部教材哦，没有的可以在北京雅思在北京的任何校区购买–不贵ONLY 20元，成本价哦)。
Q: How well do you know the people who live next door to you?你和你的邻居们的关系如何?Q: How often do you see them?你多久和他们见面或来往?Q:What kinds of problem do people sometimes have with their neighbours?邻居们之间常见的矛盾有哪些?Q:How do you think neighbours can help each other?邻居们如何可以互相帮助?Part 2: 这个题目是变态题，也是一个高分题目。

环球雅思-三口全部讲义1-20
英语口译三级精讲班第1讲讲义一、背景1、翻译资格考试从2003年12月底开始实施的全国翻译资格（水平）考试（CATTI），英文叫China Aptitude Test for Translators and Interpreters，缩写叫CATTI。
是由国家人事部委托中国外文局负责实施与管理的一个面向全国的翻译专业资格考试，分为7个语种4个等级（资深翻译与一级、二级、三级口译、笔译翻译）进行，不对报名者的学历、资历、职业做出限定，强调"以能力标准为核心"的翻译资格标准。
翻译专业资格考试,最重要的特点就是翻译资格认证的权威性。
此外，全国翻译专业资格（水平）考试独特之处是深化职称改革。
过去获得职称必须通过评审，现在，如果通过全国翻译专业资格（水平）考试三级笔译或口译考试，就可以申请获得助理翻译职称。
助理翻译是翻译专业系列初级职称。
通过了二级笔译或口译考试，也可以申请翻译职称。
翻译职称是翻译专业系列中级职称。
全国翻译专业资格（水平）考试的设立，旨在将来和一些得到国际公认的翻译考试资格认证的发达国家，进行资格的互相承认，比如英国、澳大利亚等英语国家都已经有了自己的翻译资格认证。
到那个时候我们的翻译资格考试证书就成为了一个“国际驾照”。
全国翻译专业资格（水平）考试三级口译的基本要求是掌握5000个以上英语词汇，初步了解中国和英语国家的文化背景知识，能胜任一般场合的交替传译。
2、英语口译实务3级考试英语口译实务3级考试含对话英汉互译（20%）、语篇英汉交替传译（40%，约500-650个单词）和语篇汉英交替传译（40%，约300-400个单词）。
考试时间为30分钟。
3、英语口译实务3级课程为了帮助大家提高口译实战的能力及备考的能力，我们开设这门3级“口译实务”课程。
本课程一共16个单元，内容按照3级考试的题型分为对话英汉互译和语篇英汉互译。
每个单元围绕一个主题展开，第一个主题就是“礼仪祝词”。

英语演讲 Unit 8 Speaking to Inform
• 4. It is now time to begin your outline. How you organize your outline will depend on your speech’s classification.
• If it is a speech on an event, you could use a “chronological” order in which you talk about incidents in the order that they actually occurred.
• If your specific purpose pertains to showing how some event led to something, then you could use a “causal” order.
• A third option is choosing a “topical” order in which you can talk about event aspects in any logical order.
Unit 8 Speaking to Inform
• 1. The first step is to decide an appropriate topic. Remember that an informative speech does not advocate a political position, cause, way of thinking or action to take. Think of yourself as a teacher who will be simply presenting the facts in an objective way.

Part twoI want to talk about my nephew, Martin. He is the son of my sister. He is about 7 years old now, and he is studying at a primary school.When he was about 3 years old, he began to learn painting, and he spends a lot of time on that every day. He likes to draw cartoon characters like Garfield and Snoopy. Last year, he won a national prize for painting, which gives him more motivation. He also likes to play with his friends. Nowadays, there are a lot of children who are lonely. My sister wants him to have more opportunities to enjoy his childhood. On weekends, my nephew is encouraged to invite his classmates or neighbors to come. They enjoy the games that they like. They play board games, chess or monopoly. It’s really terrific to see s o many children hanging around. Besides, my nephew is also polite. He knows that he should offer his seats to the elders on the bus, and he will not have snacks until those who are older have taken their share. I guess that’s why he is popular.Part threeInterviewer: Who are luckier, children in the past or at present?Candidate: In the past, children didn’t have a lot of toys or snacks, but they didn’t have a lot of pressure in their study. Nowadays, children have rich material life, but they don’t have t he fun children had before.Interviewer: What’s the pressure brought to children by their schools and parents?Candidate: Chinese children are the only child of their family, and parents have great expectations on them.Interviewer: What do you think of primary school education in China?Candidate: Children are not taught to be creative. Instead, they are modeled in the same way. If children have different ideas from teachers, those ideas will be criticized. To be frank, I guess the primary school education is a failure.Interviewer: What did you like when you were a child?Candidate: I liked to play games and enjoyed going to the mountains on weekends with my parents.Interviewer: How can parents educate their children?Candidate: Parents should try to spend some time communicating with their children and know about what the children are thinking about. Besides, parents should always set examples for children.Interviewer: What’s the difference between Chinese children and western children?Candidate: Chinese children are more obedient, and they like to follow the instructions of their elderly. On the other hand, western children are better at their creativity and imagination.Interviewer: What’s the difference between western parents and Chinese parents?Candidate: Western parents tend to treat their children like friends, and they try to reason with their children. Children feel respected. Chinese parents always want to be authoritative in front of their children.Interviewer: Do you think that young people should have more freedom?Candidate: Yes. Young people in China are controlled by their parents, and they should be free to make decisions for themselves.Interviewer: Do you think that parents care too much about children’s education?Candidate: Chinese parents want their children to be the best among the peers and they spend much money sending children to learn different skills like dancing, singing or painting. I think they care too much about children’s education.。
