怎样描述一副图片？地点

William Hargarth --- …The Frontpiece to Kirby‟s Perspective‟ (British Museum, London)

---The water is slopping.

---We can see on top of the church tower but we look directly at the church and we can see both sides of the church.

---The end of the church is in the water

---The crow is enormous; it is half the size of the tree.

---The line of trees leading to the crow‟s tree gets larger as it goes into the distance rather than smaller

---The trees at the beginning of the line pass in front of the sign board of the inn

---The sign board of the inn is supported on two buildings

---The woman leans out of the window and lights the pipe of the man on the hill

---On the bridge the front horse goes behind the tree which is on the hillside behind the bridge

---The man in the boat shoots at the swan on the other side of the bridge (he wouldn‟t be able to see it from that position)

---The crows on the road are probably all mature and yet they get bigger as they go away from us.

---The man fishing at the front of the picture is holding his rod over and beyond the rod of the other fisherman

---We can see the tops and the bottoms of the barrels at the front of the picture at the same time (note the perspective drawing on all the buildings is peculiar!)

---The man at the front is supposed to be standing on a flat tiled floor and yet it seems to be more like a vertical wall.

事件/经历篇:

移花接木之节日篇

A family event大家一起过节/a meal过节当然要吃饭/a memorable experience有一年过节过得特别开心/a party过节的时候开party/birthday celebration过节的时候正好过生日/happy event过节当然很高兴OK, I would like to talk about spring festival. It is the most important festival in China, I think, it is like Christmas in western countries. The meaning of it? (重复一下话题,表示正在思考,也可以拖一点时间)En, I guess, different people will have different interpretation of it. (狡猾的大大的,反正不是我的观点,等于没有说)To most Chinese, this festival is a good excuse for them to relax, and a perfect time for family

reunion/get-together because people are all busy thus have no time to go home very often. So, I think it means a lot to common people because it might be the only time when the whole family can be present at the same time and celebrate.

As to the topic of how do we celebrate the festival, I would say, we have a less common activity compared with the western countries as it is a must for Chinese people to watch the New Year‟s Eve Show on TV, I

think ,the westerners do not have this ritual, right? (把球踢给考官)

考官虽然不会回答你,但是一般会点点头,这是你自信的一种表现,可能本来考官只准备给你5.5, 这个环节之后可能觉得你还是有拿6分的能力的,好好把握啦.

The younger generations are more westernized as they will throw a party with friends to celebrate New Year. (把party这个话题一起准备了.)

下面可以继续侃party怎么玩? 喝酒/聊天/听音乐/玩游戏呗

This is normally a very happy event. (happy event 也搞定了)
