2011英语口语考试

2011英语口语考试Page4 Module1 Unit2 Passage1Many students have hobbies, such as reading, painting, growing vegetables in their gardens, and looking after animals. Some hobbies are relaxing and others are creative. Hobbies can make you grow as a person, develop your interests and help you learn new skills.Page12 Module2 Unit2 Passage2It was the early autumn of my first year at a junior high school, and my old school was far away. As a result, no one knew who I was. I was very lonely, and afraid to make friends with anyone.Page28 Module4 Unit2 Passage7“So my advice is this: If a snake bites you, pick up your phone. Take its photo first and then show the photo to the doctors,” suggests Mr Jackson. “Oh, and if the snake doesn’t smile for its photo, don’t worry!”Page36 Module5 Unit2 Passage2Then I think you should offer to pay. But you shouldn’t use your pocket money---after all, your parents gave you that money. If you offer to do some jobs around the home, or maybe help him with his work, He’ll realise that you’re truly sorry.Page48 Module6 Unit1 Line4-11-What did she say? -She was fantastic! She said that she was with some classmates from London, and that she was studying Chinese. -Did she talk about her friends? -She said she missed her parents but she had some close friends here. -That’s us! -And she said China was a very exciting place. But she didn’t like the word “foreigner”. She explained that her visit was all about making friends.Page56 Module7 Unit1 Line14-16Well … I said that my hand and arm hurt. She asked if I was practising too much, and I said that I wasn’t. Then she asked if she could help me. I told her not to worry. She told me to look after myself. She told me to rest and get better soon.Page66 Module8 Unit2 Passage2In many countries, the new year begins on 1st January, but people started celebrating on 31st December, New Year’s Eve. In New York many people go to celebrate in Times Square. While they’re waiting for the New Year, they listen to music, sing traditional songs and have fun. Just before 12 o’clock, everyone counts down from 10: 10, 9, 8 … As soon as it’s 12 o’clock, everyone shouts very loudly, “Happy New Year!”and they say, “Out with the old year and in with the new!” Suddenly there are fireworks and special drinks. Sometimes people sing an old song called Auld Lang SynePage74 Module9 Unit2 Passage3In 1938 he came to China to treat the Chinese soldiers in the mountains north of Yan’an. There were few doctors, so he had to work very hard. He opened hospitals to give treatment to local people and soldiers, and to train doctors and nurses. He also wrote books so that doctors could learn about new treatments.Page82 Module10 Unit2 Passage8“I think I’d be all right. I wouldn’t just eat sandwiches or fruit. I know how to cook some simple dishes because my mum showed me,”the 13-year-old boy said. In his opinion, many teenagers depend too much on their parents, and there is much more to learn than cooking, like “tidying up your room or even dressing yourself properly”.。

2011英语口语考试题目提纲

2011英语口语考试题目提纲

1、Are you hesitant about revealing your identity when you chat on the Internet?Why? When it comes to chatting on the Internet,I am certainly hesitant about revealing my identity. As a starter, I won’t use my real name when chatting online because an alias will prevent someone from pulling up your life history from Google. It is quite easy to link real names with address and other pieces of information. Besides,I don't include my email address as well. The more you reveal about yourself, the easier it is for people to track you down. Every bit of information that you tell someone about yourself is a puzzle piece that can easily be linked with other details to create a clearer picture of who you are.So,if you are an adult and have a teenager or even younger child at home, you must stress these safety rules with them to protect not only them, but also the rest of your family.2、What qualities must a person have to make big money?There are quiet a few wealthy people around us, their process of relentless struggle for their dreams has been putting positive influence on us for every single moment.In my opinon,if a person want to make big money,he must have qualities as follows: First, he must be talent and have abundant knowledge. Second, he must be popular enough to make more friends covering every fields. Besides,he must have good communication abilities to establish good relationship. Last but not least,he must grasp the very opportunities which is not easy to come at the right time and take good advantages of them to make big money.3、Do you think money can bring happiness? Why or why not?Well, I don't think money can bring people greater happiness.Maybe you will say that if we don't have money we can do nothing , and we can not buy what we want .If we don't have money what we can do is only to work work work,or we don't survive.May be so,we really can do few things without money.But do not only think that aspect.Although money can bring what we need in physical ,such as clothes ,something to eat,and so on,then what about the mental need,money can't satisfy it,at least money can't buy real love and other mental things. I think money is needed,but money is not everything.So I think that money may make us happy but it can't make us feel greater happiness.And this is just what I think .Thank you!4、Would you like to be a housewife/househusband after you receive higher education?Why or why not?Well,as a matter of fact,I wouldn't like to be a housewife or a househusband (after I receive higher education).Since I am a medical student, I prefer to be a successful surgeon(外科医生),because working in the hospital I can not only use what I've learnt at school,but also learn lots of things that school couldn't manage.It can improve my social intercourse(社交礼仪) and I can also earn money for my family to prove that I’m successful .But if I was a housewife/househusband,I would be just busy doing housework all day.I think it's boring to do that.5、What are the most common kinds of addiction around you?How do they affect people’s life?Nowadays,computer is considered to be one of the most common kind of addictions in human history.It has influence on every aspect of our daily life as a result of the development of computer.A computer works much faster and accurately.Of course,science fictions have made up many fascinating stories about a computer,or robot,who conquers man and the Earth,even the whole universe;however,they are only unrealistc imaginations.With the widespread of computer network and technologies,more and more people are getting hooked on the Internet and becomes slaves to Internetchat rooms or games.The computer addiction results in disrupted marriages,childhook delinquency,crime and over-spending.The future for the computer is very promising.With the help of it,we can do things that could not be done before.However,we must notice and minimize its negative effects.6、What kind of pets do you like?Why?I like to keep cats as pet.I used to have a cat.Everyday I played with the cat when my parents were at work.Wherever I went,I would bring the cat with me.We were really good friends.But now I don't have any of them any more. I gave my cat to my neighbour,because I'm very busy with my studies.Keeping the cat took too much time and attention from me.If I had some time in the future,I surely would keep a cat again.7、Is it only a fad(一时流行的狂热) or an irresistible（不可抵抗的）trend for foreign people to learn Chinese?Why?Nowadays,with the rapid development of China’s economy and social status,Chinese, our mother tongue,tends to be popular. Honestly, Chinese is hard to learn for foreigners, but as China getting stronger in the world, learning Chinese is becoming an irresistible thing more ang more for better international communications.Moreover,China has such a huge population that there are too many opportunities in this developing market which requires Chinese language skills and if you want the job, you gona learn some Chinese more or less. Even if now learning Chinese is a fad to some extent, there is still obviously an irresistible trend to learn Chinese for foreign people for an easy and better life in China.8、Is stress always bad for people?Why or why not？In the past few years, quite a number of men and women have chosen to do something less competitive. They are afraid that the stress and strains of work will rob them of joy and happiness and do them harm both physically and mentally.In fact, however, stress isn’t the bad thing it is often supposed to be. Above all, unless it gets out of control, a certain amount of stress is vital to provide motivation and challenge, and to give purpose and significance to an otherwise meaningless, idle life. Furthermore, people under stress tend to express their full range of potential and to actualize their own personal worth—the very aim of a human life. Stress is a natural part of everyday life and there is no way to avoid it. What we can do is to develop our adaptive abilities to deal with it rather than to escape from it.9、Please talk about the negative effect and the positive effect of tests.Nowadays, examinations and tests seem to be pushing students and their teachers harder than ever.On one hand, in an exam-oriented country, teachers in schools wouldn't usually be expected to teach anything other than that set by the standard curriculum, which could narrow the views of the students and the way they think about the world.On the other hand,as no way of examining one's abilities more objective than tests is yet invented, tests, however,remain an important role in the process of education. What is now needed to be done is that a balance should be made between tests and general learning, where exams can bring the most benefits and the least adverse effect(副作用).proper emphasis on testing today is definitely necessary and could have a positive influence on students and teachers.10、Which do you prefer,Chinese movies or foreign movies?Why？I enjoy seeing foreign movies. I can improve my English through watching them. In addition, watching foreign movies can take my mind off to a distant land. The outlandish setting often excites me, and the different values tend to give me much food for thought. However, occasionally, I do enjoy some Chinese movies, even though they cannot yet compete with Western movies in filming technology. I do hope the next generation of Chinese movies will make further improvement.。

2011-2012-2期末口试

1. Do you think man lives in harmony with nature now?In my opinion, I don’t think man lives in harmony with nature now.To begin with, people built up many factories these years which do harm to the nature in order to develop the economy. Billon tons of carbon dioxide is let off into the air and polluted water poured into the river every year from the factories. We can see clearly that the environment has been seriously polluted. For example, in many rivers, no fish can live. Another example is that our air and sky have become more and dirtier due to the air pollution.What’s more, the population problem may be the greatest challenge to the nature at present. In other words, people are being born faster than they are dying, or they are dying at a slower rate than they are being born. The average life span has doubled in the last 50 years. There are more and more people that the nature can not afford.Reality just telling us, to protect the nature has become more and more important in both scientific field and our daily lives. So it’s necessary for us to lives in harmony with nature. People must learn to live in harmony with each other as well as in harmony with nature.That’ all, thank you.2.Can you give some examples to show environmental problems which are the consequences of man’ activities? According to you, what can we do to solve or to prevent the problems you have just mentioned?Along with the advance of the society more and more problems are brought to our attention, one of which is that a variety of environmental problems now affect our entire world. Such as Acid rain, Deforestation and so on.. These are the consequences of man’ activitiesBut, what should we do to solve them or prevent them? I think, first of all, we should figure out why they have happen .and then, We should solve or prevent them step by step, one by one.For Acid rain, the government and humans should together to improve the motor vehicle emission devices and limit some high-polluting factories .The future key for prevention is use more non-polluting green energy.For Deforestation, we should remember health is more important than interest .so we must prohibit the burning mountain and deforestation .the most important thing is to grow more tress and grass.The old saying is that: “Many hands make light” I think if we persist on solving or preventing them, we will have a better environment. Let’s make to!That’ all, thank you.3. How has technology made our life easier? Could you give some examples?Think about that how long do you work or play on the internet? It must be frequent .The internet has made our life more colorful. In different countries we can share interesting knowledge and the latest information. Besides, internet has provided a major opportunity to buy and sell goods. What are more people may get medical help or study on internet.Look around, almost everybody has a mobile phone. It has change our life in a extent .Mobile phone is a useful tool. It makes our world far smaller than ever and shortens the distance between people. On the one hand, it is much more convenient than regular phone. You can make a call wherever you are. On the other hand, nowadays, mobile phone has more and more functions, you can take photos, you can listen to music by using it as a mp3It seems like we can not live without technology products. Now, we can not live without phone ,internet computers , credit cards…… We need them every minute of everyday. Yes, in the past 50 years, technology has become more and more important in our daily life, technology makes our life become more convenient and rapid.That’ all, thank you.4. Is the advance of technology always a good thing? How should we avoid its negative points?In my view, scientific and technological development has both positive and negative effects. Technology makes human life more convenient, deeper into more areas of human feet. But it also brings a lot of adverse effects, consumes a large number of resources for the development of science and technology, and has a very serious impact on the sustainable development of society. Scientific and technological development has also caused environmental damage, posed a serious threat to human survival. with the development of science and technology, the basic human survival skills in a little bit less, now people increasingly rely on tools to become lazier.How do we avoid these negative factors? First of all, by bus or taxi to go to work instead of by car, walk as much as possible. Doing so can reduce traffic congestion and air pollution, also contribute to our health. Second, we should use the electronic products reasonably, not to revel in the convenience of online gaming and networking. Human beings as higher animals, we should use our own intelligence to complete the task. we must understand what things have two sides, we have to try our best to play their active role.That’ all, thank you.5. There are millions of students graduating from university every year. Most of them may go to work right afterwards, while others may delay their employment plan to further their education such as being engaged in postgraduate programs. In your opinion, which of the following choice is more rational—“work first and then postgraduate education, or vice versa?”Upon graduating from the university, every student is faced with a big, practical problem, that is, to make a choice for his/her future career. However, the choice varies from person to person. Some students want to find jobs in joint ventures, desiring to earn more money. Many students are preparing for entering the graduate school, so they work hard to pass the entrance examination.In my opinion, I would choose postgraduate education first after graduating.I have many reasons for my choice. The fundamental one is that I can enrich my mind with most advanced professional knowledge in my specialty during my postgraduate education. I believe that the more I learn, the better equipped I will be with modern knowledge, and the more probably I will succeed in my pursuit. Some people suggest that I work while studying. Well, that might be a good idea. However, I would like to see more of the world when I am young, and I think three or four years' study will undoubtedly benefit my whole life. In addition, I am sure that I will certainly have more opportunities to get a satisfactory job in future with the profound knowledge I learn.That’ all, thank you.6. Nowadays finding a job is not easy, which involves such factors as job hunters’ experience, ability, diploma, personality and so on. As for the ability and diploma, which do you think plays the more important role in securing a job?Finding a job is what students first consider when they graduate. Some people think ability is more important than a diploma, and some people think a high quality diploma can make them easy to get a job.In my opinion, diploma may be more important in the old time of China since there were few university students, while it is not the same case today. The importance of ability and diploma both depends on how it is recognized by the company or how it is related to the employees’ salaries.A person who holds a diploma is considered to be higher educated and so relatively has higheropportunity to enter the door of a company. And a student who has high ability in learning and working can soon adapt the work. They can make more profit for company. However, it becomes worthless if the person is lack of practical ability. As there are too many graduates, most of the companies prefer give an interview to choose the expert one, instead of offering training afterward. It happens because employers think a good academic student may not be good at using their knowledge in the workplace. Therefore, the trend of companies’ recruitment system indicates that ability becomes more and more important nowadays.That’ all, thank you.7. Do you agree or disagree with the following statement? “Literature can teach you a lot about real life.”I agree with the statement that is literature can teach you a lot about real life. As we know, all moral discipline, all moral perfection derives from the soul of literature that is the immortality of speech. But do you know the reason of it? In fact, literature originates from real life and above real life. The author is according to their own or other people’s experience to write books. So literature contains real life and you can obtain a lot from it. For example, “How the Steel was Tempered”and “Song of Youth”will tell you that you should be strong and confident to meet different kinds of difficulties from life. And “Romance of the Three Kingdoms” is not only a historical record, but also teaches us plenty of principles that are helpful for you to adapt to the society. In addition, you can understand what is the true love and what is the virtue and how to be a person through effective reading the literature works.In a word, real life is a basis of literature creations and it can teach you a lot about real life.That’s all, thank you.8. Describe a book, a story or a movie you like most and its influence on your life.The Kung Fu Panda 2 is my favorite movie. On the one hand. The Kung Fu and the panda are the symbol of China and they are our national treasure. I also like watching the cartoon and kung fu films all the time. On the other hand, the movie has some enormous influence on my life. First, the old saying is that“the power of justice prevails over the power of evil”. So as a student, we should take park in volunteer activities actively and promote justice. I believe that if every number can do something for it, our society will be better and better. Second, it makes me know that the friendship is so important that it can help you when you are in a bad way. In the college life, not only do we have to study hardly, but also make many good friends. Last but no least, you have to keep a quiet mind when you meet different kinds of the difficulties. Then you must be confident and take measures to solve problems.All in all, the movie has great impact on my life and it has changed my attitude toward life. That’s all, thank you.。

2011级大学英语口试备考资料

Part I Passages for Reading Aloud or /RecitationSmokingIt is almost known to all that smoking is bad for people's health. Scientific research show that smoking can lead to heart disease, cancer and other problem. The World Health Organization says diseases linked to smoking kill at least two million five-hundred-thousand persons each year.Still, many people find it difficult to stop smoking. One reason is that smoking usually becomes a habitual behavior, and habits, whether good or bad are not easy to be given up. Another reason is the effect of nicotine, the substance found in cigarettes works on people somewhat as drugs do.Measures have been taken to help people keep away from the harm of smoking. In many cities, smoking is forbidden in public places. The danger of smoking is warned of everywhere. And newspapers are asked not to publish advertisements for cigarettes. World "No Tobacco Day" is observed every year as the biggest campaign against smoking.My First JobBefore I started at university, I took my first job as a waitress in a nice restaurant. At the night before my first day, I was too excited to go to sleep and as a result, I got up late in the morning. I threw on my clothes and rushed over to the restaurant.In a great hurry, I didn't hear clearly the head waiter's instruction that we should go into the kitchen through one door and out from the other. So when I took two plates of eggs and bacon and an orange juice out to the restaurant, I went straight towards the wrong door and collided with another waiter coming in!Worst of all was that I wore a pair of smart shoes but with high heels! A few hours later I was in agony yet had no time to change them. By the time we finished serving dinner at about 10:30 I was completely exhausted. Nevertheless, I learnt something through my experience.The Battle Against AIDSJoin us in The Battle Against AIDS now. Everyone can play a part!The Battle Against AIDS puts us all on the same side. No disease on the face of the earth does more harm than AIDS, and there is no enemy in war more terrible than AIDS. Combating this awful disease is a life and death struggle.One thing that you can do is join an organization that works towards ending this epidemic. Organizations around the world not only offer people the opportunity to work with doctors and researchers, they also offer a chance to work with others. You can improve AIDS education by banding out literature about AIDS. Or you can write letters to government leaders, pressing them to support AIDS research.MoneyMoney is what everybody desires. It can be used to buy food, clothes, books, bicycle, furniture and many other things people need or want.Money is considered by many people as the most important thing in life. With money, they can go wherever they please and do whatever they want. With money, they can buy a fine house to live in, fashionable clothes to put on, and a nice bicycle to ride. And with money, they can employ attendants to serve them. In a word, money can make people comfortable and bring them happiness.However, money is also the source of all crimes and brings them misery. Since money is so tempting, quite a few people are attracted by it and begin to go astray. By hook or by crook, they try to make money. To get more money, they gamble, swindle, steal, rob or do many other evil things, for "money makes the mare go". As a result, money leads them to jail or even to the execution grounds.Of course money is useful and desirable, yet we should make money in proper way and spend our money on proper things.My View on OpportunityDifferent people have different views on opportunity. It is held that there are few opportunities. But it is also held that there are opportunities everywhere.Those who hold the first opinion think that there are too many people and there is always an intense competition for limited opportunities. In contrast, those who hold the second view think that if one is not prepared, he can hardly have any opportunities: however, if one is prepared, he can have a lot of opportunities.As to me, I agree with the latter. Admittedly, there is really an intense competition for limited opportunities, but it is not to say the one can't create opportunities himself. In most cases opportunities are created by people themselves. For example, many people lost their jobs in recent years. Some people wait for opportunities in vain. However, others create opportunities themselves and get self-employed. Eventually they become employers themselves.Therefore, to some extent, one can take his destiny into his own hands.Why Do We Attend UniversityWhen we consider why we should attend universities, different people have different ideas. In some students' eyes, studying in universities means a bright future after graduation. They think they are bound to find good jobs with a good college education. However, life in the colleges and the jobs that they can find are usually somewhat disappointing.Especially under the severe competition of today's society, it is not very easy for a college graduate to find a satisfying job. As far as I am concerned, universities can provide good study opportunities and essential facilities for those who want to acquire knowledge for the construction of our country, and this is the reason why we attend universitiesThe Generation GapNowadays many young people are complaining that their parents can not understand them very well. They say that their parents take care of every aspect of their lives leaving them a neighbor to have their private space yet parents are worried that their children don't show any respect to them and never give them any trust.Consequently the household phrase spreading it is the generation gap. By using this phrase both the young and the old have found a good explanation for their misunderstanding of each other. Yet they don't bother to take any measures to cover the distance between them.In my opinion I think we should first admit that there are indeed some differences between parents and children then we should try to take some time to communicate with each other frequently. Not only the parents but also the kids should be equal when they're exchanging their views. Only by the joint efforts can the parents and children breach the generation gap between them.The importance of waterOf all the things we eat and drink, water is the most important. We can live without food for many days, but two or three days without water, usually makes people die.However, not all of people understand this. They keep throwing rubbish into the rivers or lakes. Some factories even pour waste water into the river. As a result, many rivers and lakes have become so dirty that the water is no longer safe for people to drink.Let’s do our best to keep the water clean to save ourselves.Passage NineA young man with AIDS refuses to take medicine that could make his life longer and more comfortable, because he’s afraid the medicine will kill him. Incorrect beliefs about AIDS are common, and they cause greater pain and help to spread the disease.This is why the United Nations sends educators to the world’s poorest places, where people have the least education about AIDS. Once there, they talk with people, giving classes and meeting in clinics to discuss living with AIDS. They tell people what doctors have discovered about the disease, and ask them to trust AIDS medicines.In order to stop the spread of AIDS, education must reach more people. It is not enough only for money to be spent. And more medicines won’t solve all of the problems.Passage TenThere are simple rules for an interview, and it seems that everyone knows them. So, as an interviewer for my company, I expect people to be clean, well dressed, and show confidence when they see me. This is basic. But there is something else you must know.To leave a good impression in an interview, you must be able to talk about the company. Before you see the interviewer, do some reading. Understand the company’s specialneeds, so you can tell your interviewer how you can fill those needs. And then, you can explain why you should get the job.Part II Questions1.How do you feel about your English studies? Why?2.Some people prefer to listen to music while they are studying or working.

2011-2012Academci YearThe Final Spoken Test of the First SemesterPart II is compulsory work. Part I and Part III are optional ones, you may choose one of them.Part I．Paragraph recitationRequirements: You are required to recite one of the following paragraphs chosen by the teacher.1. I refused to turn my back on the friends who had made those early years bearable, even fun.I was popular, but I was still me! People respected me for this. At the same time I fit in pretty much everywhere. I told Kelly that she should try not to make herself feel better by putting others down, and left it at that. I’m glad that I changed my image, I’m glad that I went to the trouble to get rid of a “bad” reputation. I enjoyed grade ten more than any other school year and I learned that no reputation is written in stone. I changed my “Loser” image without changing who I was inside. If you want, you can do it too!2. It took me a long time and a lot of hard work but I finally returned to the University of Texas in the fall of 1983-----a year and a half after almost dying. The next few years in Austin were very difficult for me, but I truly believe that in order to see the beauty in life you have to experience some unpleasantness. Maybe I have experienced too much unpleasantness, but I believe in living each day to the fullest, and doing the very best I can. Nothing is impossible and never, never give up or quit.3. I often look back on our lunchtimes together, bathed in the soft midday light. They were the commas in my childhood, the pauses that told me life is not savored in pre-measured increments, but I the sum of daily rituals and small pleasures we casually share with loved ones. Over peanut-butter sandwiches and chocolate-chip cookies, I learned that love, first and foremost, means being there for the little things.A career is stimulating. I am glad I had one. But a career is like an open balloon. It remains inflated only as long as you keep pumping. A child is a seed. You water it. You care for it the best you can. And then it grows all by itself into a beautiful flower.4.It is one of life’s ironies that even when you are bored, dissatisfied, and stuck in a job that offers little joy or challenges, you hold on to it because you fear the unknown. But the clock is ticking, and if you are ever going to know the pleasure of the work you love, you have got to get moving.Most companies are not looking at age; they are looking at energy and experience. Go see a prospective employer armed with a great attitude, a sense of humor, and an excitement about the world around you and the doors will open.5. My parents moved to Vermont when I was still an infant and my father, a soft-spoken man,settled quietly into his medical practice in a small town there. He soon won the respect of the local people and everywhere I went, I was known as “Doctor Eppley’s son.” At first, I was delighted as I was well treated by my classmates and teachers because I had a respected father. However, things soon changed when I grew up. I got tired of being followed by my father’s good name and I wanted independence. I became very stubborn and rebellious and started to call my father by his first name, which hurt him a great deal. One day, however, something happened that changed my attitude completely.Part II.

2011级2级起点第一学期期末口语考试题

2011级2级起点第一学期期末口语考试题

北京交通大学2011级2级起点第一学期期末口语考试题Part oneRead the following paragraph (21世纪)How do A students like these do it? Brains aren’t the only answer. The most gifted students do not necessarily perform best in exams. Knowing how to make the most of one’s abilities counts for much more. Hard work isn’t the whole story either. Some of these high-achieving students actually put in fewer hours than their lower-scoring classmates. The students at the top of the class get there by mastering a few basic techniques that others can easily learn. Here, according to education experts and students themselves, are the secrets of A students.This explains why it can be so difficult to get a western-style discussion going with Japanese students of English. Whenever I serve a volleyball, everyone just stands back and watches it fall. No one hits it back. Everyone waits until I call on someone to take a turn. And when that person speaks, he doesn't hit my ball back. He serves a new ball. Again, everyone just watches it fall. So I call on someone else. This person does not refer to what the previous speaker has said. He also serves a new ball. Everyone begins again from the same starting line, and all the balls run parallel. There is never any back and forth.Just after this success, however, tragedy struck. In August of 1973, Stevie was involved in a serious car accident. For nearly a week he lay in a coma, unable to speak or walk. “We don’t know when he’ll be out of danger,” the doctor said. Everyone waited and prayed. Suddenly, it didn’t matter that Stevie was a musical genius or that he had conquered blindness and poverty. All he had left was his faith and strong will. She was a small woman, old and wrinkled. When she started washing for us, she was already past seventy. Most Jewish women of her age were sickly and weak. All the old women in our street had bent backs and leaned on sticks when they walked. But this washwoman, small and thin as she was, possessed a strength that came from generations of peasant forebears. Mother would count out to her a bundle of laundry that had accumulated over several weeks. She would then lift the bundle, put it on her narrow shoulders, and carry it the long way home.I remember when they took their first holiday together. Ted wanted to do something energetic, because he didn’t usually get much exercise during the year. Mary’s jobmeant that she was on her feet most of the time. All she wanted to do was lie in the sun. Ted hated the idea of lying on a beach; Mary hated the idea of being too active. They compromised, and took their holiday in mid-summer, high in the Alps. Mary was able to lie in the sun by the hotel swimming pool, while Ted went off for long walks in the mountains with a group of hikers. In the evening they met at the hotel, both content with their day, happy to eat a leisurely meal together and dance a little afterwards.How can a country where typical parents are ashamed of their daughter studying mathematics instead of going dancing, or of their son reading Weber while his friends play baseball be expected to compete in the technology race with Japan or remain a leading political and cultural force in Europe? How long can America remain a world-class power if we constantly put social skills and physical strength over academic achievement and intellectual ability?My father, Winston Churchill, began his love affair with painting in his 40s, amid disastrous circumstances. As First Lord of the Admiralty in 1915, he had been deeply involved in a campaign in the Dardanelles that could have shortened the course of a bloody world war. But when the mission failed, with great loss of life, Churchill paid the price, both publicly and privately: He was removed from the Admiralty and lost his position of political influence.This belief in hard work is the first of three main factors contributing to Asian students’ outstanding performance. It springs from Asians’ common heritage of Confucianism, the philosophy of the 5th-century-BC Chinese sage whose teachings have had a pro found influence on Chinese society. One of Confucius’s primary teachings is that through effort, people can perfect themselves.Joint ventures involving Western and Japanese companies often run into conflicts — a multitude of little things that escalate into big emotional battles in which all the parties keep exclaiming: “What’s wrong with them!? Can they understand that …?!” But because the conflicts are mainly due to cultural differences, neither side can understand —unless they have a “cultural translator”.Read the following paragraph (交互)Book 1, Unit 1, College LifeReading 1Doing homework is important, but it’s not always enough. In order to really understand the ideas, it’s better to meet with a small group of two or three students after you study. Complete the assignments with them. Those students who did this understood the information better. They felt more connected to the class, and participated more in their classes.Reading 2Most colleges have attendance rules. At some colleges, you may be dropped for not attending classes, so ask your teachers about these policies. Missing classes is serious. You might miss an assignment, a quiz, a review for a test, or special information about an assignment. If you miss a class, you must find out what you missed. Ask some in the class to help you.Book 1, Unit 2, A World of Fast FoodReading 1The result is that Jamaicans are not eating healthy food. Fast food is cheaper than healthy food. Healthy food takes more time to shop for and prepare. Of course, Jamaicans would like to eat food that is both healthy and fast. To help with this problem, the yogurt shop TCBY has been creative. They have four stores in Jamaica that sell yogurt as well as low-fat ice cream.Reading 2Some teenagers came here on their first dates. Others came here after high school football games. Some got their first jobs here. Many people have good memories of this Old McDonald’s. They’re angry that the building is in danger and that their memories are as well.Book 1, Unit 3, Healthy HabitsReading 1It’s obvious that eating right and exercising regularly are very beneficial. Eating good foods makes you feel great and helps prevent many types of illnesses. Exercise makes your body release chemicals called endorphins, which reduce stress and cause you to feel better emotionally. Exercise tones muscles, helps the body to support the spine, and produces healthier bones, lungs, and heart. Now doesn’t that sound like a magical potion?Reading 2At the gym, Zoe may try out an aerobics class and another day enroll in a spinning class. Zoe keeps on top of all the new offerings at her gym because she doesn’t want to miss out on anything new. She feels great after a workout; it’s good for her health, she has made new friends and there is always something new to try.Book 1, Unit 4, Personal heroesReading 1I’m excited by the possibilities I see for medicine, for education and, of course, for technology. And I believe that through our natural inventiveness, creativity and willingness to solve tough problems, we’re going to make some amazing achievements in all these areas in my lifetime. Reading 2The word people used most often in describing Lee was intense; he was notoriously impatient except when talk turned to martial arts. He laughed at his own jokes, and he had an annoying habit of singing to himself on car trips. Many people also way him as a kind and compassionate man who did favors for people he didn’t even know.Book 1, Unit 5, Bilingual EducationReading 1Bilingual education has always been and continues to be a controversial subject. It is controversial for a variety of reasons. Some critics argue that bilingual education places an unfair burden on schools, and taxpayer’s money should not be spent teaching immigrants in their native language. They reason that all people in the United States should have to read, write, and speak English. Reading 2She took me to the front of the room and spoke to the other boys and girls. She pointed at me but I did not understand her. Then the other boys and girls laughed and pointed at me. I did not feel so good. Thereafter, I kept away from the groups as much as I could and worked alone. I worked hard. I listened to the strange sounds. I learned new names, new words.Book 1, Unit 6, Love and MarriageReading 1Many people, including many women, support payment of lobola. They explain that in Tswana culture, a marriage means joining a family, not just marring an individual. The idea of marring into a family is very African. A woman does not get married to just the man. Through marriage, the young woman’s family loses their daughter as she then becomes a part of her husband’s family. Lobola is a way to show thanks. It is a form of generosity in African culture.Reading 2Men who aren’t rich and people who love romance stories will be happy with recent research findings. It turns out the Beatles were right: money can’t buy you love. When college women chose among hypothetical men to date or marry, the attractiveness of bucks ranked behind honesty, good looks, and having time for family life.Book 1, Unit 7, Money MattersReading 1The Internet is another important part of the youth market. The percentage of kids under eighteen who are online is large and growing. It is estimated that kids aging five to eighteen will spend over $ 3 billion via the Internet. The amount of time that teens spend online is, on average, over seven hours a week.Reading 2We’re paying for more and more things electronically. Debit cards can be used to pay for our gas, buy our movie tickets, and even purchase our groceries. In some places you can even use a card to pay for a taxi. You need a credit card to reserve a hotel room or rent a car. You can pay your bills form your home computer or at your banking machine without ever using cash or writing a check.Book 2, Unit 1, Love and CareReading 1Mother Teresa’s mission was specifically to “the poorest of the poor” because she believed that the worst poverty of all was to reject a human soul in need. Those who visited the homes she established in the worst slums of Calcutta emerged overwhelmed by the love and cheerfulness that permeated the wards, bring hope to the abandoned and dignity to the dying.Reading 2She was scheduled to start classes within days when she went on her last vacation with childhood friends. Early on August 18, their car skidded off a curving road in the Smokies, and Patti, not wearing a seat belt, was thrown from the vehicle.Book 2, Unit 2, Arts and MusicReading 1Furthermore, because of my heavy Asian art background, it has been an immense obstacle for me to transform most of my concepts of Eastern art into an American graphic point of view in such a short period of time. Therefore, I become frustrated when my instructor tells me not only to participate more in the class but also to think more conceptually.Reading 2All that can really be said is that Mozart does have a positive short-term effect on spatial perception. Whether listening to Mozart makes us smarter is uncertain. That music can affect our moods, exciting us to perform harder or calming use to concentrate better, this would seem to be a matter of the individual student.Part twoDescribe the following pictureKey words:Children’s education, standard, pressure, abilityKey words:filial piety, housework, family, careKey words:Honesty, morality, success, college studentsKey words:Spoil the child with overindulgence, education, personality, independenceKey words:Care for others, help, raincoat, umbrellaKey words:Parents’ expectation, cage, play, studyKey words:Donation, love, Project Hope, childrenKey words:Independence, housework, self-training, abilitiesKey words:Water, waste, save, responsibilityKey words:Environment, protection, energy, pollution。

2010-2011安徽大学英语一口语考试题目及答案

It is vivi dly depicted in the cartoon that a boy is running along the racetrack with pain staking efforts, sweat pouring downing his face. After a long journey, he is making th e final spurt(冲刺) toward the finishing line, w ith strong determination to b ecome the champion. It seems that he could rest for a while to enjoy the ecstasy of victory. However, straight ah ead lies a sign which indicates a new “starting p oint” and urges him to continue rushing to the n ext destination. [图画图表描述段] Undoubtedl y the cartoon conveys the meaning that life is lik e th e process of runnin g in whic h on e shou ld mak e c on stan t efforts and n ever stop mak ing progress. Owi ng to the qu icken ing p ace of life, competition goes increasing ly fierce in all walk s of life, stimu lating everyon e to pur sue on e goal after anoth er. Once a person stop s m aking progress, he can hardl y maintain h is p ast g lory and survive in th is comp etitiv e wor ld. As D eng X iaopin g, th e great Ch in ese leader sai d, “Developmen t is th e on ly way.”No matter how powerfu l a c oun try is, no matter how successfu l a sp ec ific institu tion, i t will defi ni tel y seek n ew dev elopm en t in h igh sp eed. G eneral ly speak ing, neith er a c oun try nor a p erson can remain stagn an t(停滞的，迟钝的). [意义阐释段]A case i n poi nt is the successfu l l aunch in g of “S hen zh ouⅤ spac ecraft” wh ich sets Ch ina in a h igh position of aviation and spac e fligh t. Al though it m ean s a gr eat ach iev emen t for u s Ch in ese, w e are fac ing n ew ch alleng es in the fu ture and n eed to do furth er research in spac e technology. Ano ther illustrati on i s cl osel y rel ated to us, the exami nees. If we p ass th is test and are fortu nately ad mitted by a un iversity, w e sh all n ot stop mak ing efforts. Instead, w e are c onfron ted w ith th e ch allen ge of conquering the d ifficu lt gradu ate courses. We still h av e to strive for succ ess in our fu ture academ ic study, employmen t and career. On the whol e, these exampl es effecti vel y cl ari fy the saying that “Destin ation is an other starting poin t.”The cartoon symbolically states the ways that three sons and a daughter treat their old, helpless father. They each stand in a different corner of afootball field. The eldest son kicksout the father, who huddles upinto a ball. The other children prepare to ward him off. It is sadto see none of the children iswilling to receive their father. [图画图表描述段]The picture is thought- provoking. What it illustratesis a common phenomenon in today’s society: manygrown-up children refuse to support their aging parents.While they enjoy a comfortablelife, their parents are neglectedand left alone to face poverty. Asthese elderly people have grownso physically weak that they arenot capable of supporting themselves any longer. I thinkthese children have betrayedtheir own conscience and therefore should be criticized bythe society. [意义阐释段]According to Chinese culture,to be kind to one’ s parents is theheight of virtue. We owe so muchto our parents in that they not only gave us life but have done so much in bringing us up. It is not reasonable against nature for us terrorsponsibility of taking care of our parents when they are old. Further more, we have the duty to pay back their love by making their later years enjoyable and happy.
