大学英语口语考试试题-10个口语话题
(1) 视听说 2 Unit1How does music affect our life?Music greatly affects our personal moods. Music can calm and revitalize us in a variety of ways. It elevates our moods above our personal fears and doubts and even reduces stress and pain levels. Music always exists in our life. Mothers usually sing smoothing songs to make their children get to sleep. At a sports meeting, fast and vigorous songs are played in order to lift athletes up. What’s more, quite a few students prefer to listen to a walkman while they are doing their homework. In a word, putting additional music in our life can be a powerfully enriching tool. (2) 视听说2 Unit2 T oday’s MoviesSeveral things are missing in today's movies: (1) Although there were some good romantic comedies in the 90's, there are very few today that really rival the screwball shows of the 30's and 40's.(2)Now that technical abilities have increased so dramatically with the development of computer graphics, too often special effects take the place of character development and the creation of a desirable and believable alternate world.(3) The element of fantasy is also missing(4)it leads us to star power.(3) 视听说 2 Unit3 Please talk about wedding ceremonies in China and in the U.S. In china, many Chinese believe that marriage is a major event in life, and they choose to spend a lot of money to celebrate it. Usually, the couple invites a large number of guests, who are seated at ten or more dining tables. The bride and the groom toast each other and the guests cheer. The parents of the couple may give speeches to express thanks to each other for bringing up such a nice young man or girl. Also, they wish the couple will love each other for life. The groom and the bride may also thank their parents. Weddings in the u.s vary as much as the people do, but church wedding is popular. The wedding party enters the church while the wedding march is played. When the wedding party is gathered by the altar, the bride and the groom exchange vows, then they exchange rings.(4)Ads in my eyes Every coin has two sides. Ads have positive effects as well as negative effects. On the one hand, through ads, we can know a new product and get information about products to make a choice. On the other hand, the large amounts of money spent on ads, of course, will be passed on consumers. What's more, producers often exaggerate their products. Misleading a lot of people to buy products. It also causes negative social effects. For example, The posters ruin the environment; ads usually encourage unnecessary buying; ads usually portray young and beautiful people, thus older, plain-looking people may feeling as if they do not belong to contemporary world, and so on. (5) 视听说 2 Unit5 What animals are usually kept as pets? Why? Dogs and cats usually kept as pets. Because dogs loyal to their owners and intelligent. They can carry out human instructions and perform fairly complicated functions. Moreover, with its strength and agility, the dog is capable of protecting the house and its master. Cats are also popular to be kept as pets, because cats have soft fur, meek tempers and cute faces, making people like them. What’s more, cats can bring a lot of pleasure to people by funny behaviors.(6) 视听说2 Unit6 Do you think fashion shows are necessary in today’s society? Why or why not?No, I don’t think so. Obviously fashion shows have been around for a long time in a various parts of the world. This fact shows that they are an indispensable part of the modern culture. However, I’d like to point out that the pursuit of fashion should not take up the greater part of our lives. After all, work and study are far more important than fashion shows.(7) 视听说 2 Unit7 What is your opinion of money? In my opinion, money can both benefit people and do harm to them. On the one hand, we can＇ deny that money is useful. We need money to buy t food, buy a house or pay our education cost. Money can make us live more comfortably. For example, with more money, we can help others and take part in more social activities and receive a good education, thus increasing our knowledge and developing our skills. On the other hand, some people try to get money by dishonest means, for example, they often cheat and gemble, even rob and kill people. Sooner or later, they will be punished by the law. Money can bring them nothing but misery.(8) 视听说 2 Unit8 Why do people commit crimes? What causes are especially important? Why? Many factors contribute to crime, such as poverty, the gap betweenthe rich and the poor, lack of education, emotional outbreaks and loose law enforcement. If one suddenly gets angry, he may be control over himself and injure or even kill people. Uneducated people may not know what punishments there are and go ahead boldly and foolishly. But lack of education is often linked with a lack of money. Poor people mayfeel miserable, and ill-feelings breed crime. Clearly, the widening gap between the rich and the poor plays a significant role in crime levels. Some people may commit crimes because of emotional outbreaks. Such people need a strong government and strict low enforcement to help them think twice before they leap. T o conclude, the gap between the rich and the poor and loose law enforcement may be especially important cause of crime.。

◆Can you describe some possible advantages of having a poor memory?A poor memory may have some advantages. With the passage of time, the sadmemories will fade. Those with a short memory tend to recover faster than those with a tenacious memory. For the same reason, forgetful people may be more ready to forget their daily worries and forgive others for their offenses.With a less retentive mind, they may enjoy life more.◆What subject do you like best?What made you like it::your personal interests,the teacher, the practical applications of the course in the future, etc.?I like physics best, though many classmates find it hard. A lot of factors ledme to like this subject. As early as in high school, I was amazed at the laws scientists like Newton and Einstein discovered. What they found out changed the world. Luckily, my physics teacher at this university is excellent. He is knowledgeable and patient. Just because of him, I’m willing to spend lots of my spare time on this subject, Most importantly,what I have leatned from the physics course will be of great help in landing a good job. Nowadays many companies think physics majors often have a solid academic foundation and can easily adapt themselves to a wide variety of positions.◆What do you think people will choose:a low-paid job one likes , or a boringwell-paid job?I think many people prefer to find a job that they really like. After all, mostpeople want to enjoy themselves rather than have plenty of money without a sense of achievement and happoness. On the other hand, some people may choose a well-paid job instead of a job close to their heart to earn more money.If one is in serious financial difficulty, one can hardly afford the luxury of a dream job, money is the top priority.◆What kind of boss would you like to work for: one who is inefficient but kind,or one who is is efficient but very strict with employees ?Many people, if not most, prefer to work for a kind, good-natured boss. Under such a boss, they feel secure and happy. The boss won’t scold employees simply because they have made a small mistake. He will also be generous. It is true that sometimes because of his lack of ability, his company may not reap huge profits, and employees can hardly get a raise. But happiness is surely more important than money. However some people, inculding me, will choose to work for a boss who is capable but very strict with his subodinates. If the boss is capable, he will lead the company to one new height after another. When the company thrives, all employees will benefit . even if the boss may give an employee a severe dressing-down for something he or she did , the employee can learn a lesson fron the event . under such a boss , employees can gain valuable experience, which may serve as a good foundation for them to start a business of their own in the future.◆. What should be done to help unemployed people?Before unemployed people find a new job, their basic living standard should be met. They need subsidies (补助金) from the government to maintain live a normal life, which includes money for food, clothes, shelter and transportation.It is also important for unemployed people to be trained for re-employment. The government should offer training programs to update their skills so that they will become competitive on in the job market again◆What is the best way to keep one's spouse happy in themarriage? Explain..◆Do you wish to be a flight attendant? Why or why not?First, flight attendants often have ample opportunities to fly to different parts of the country or even of the world. Through their service, flight attendants interact with many passengers. As a result, they tend to develop good interpersonal skills, which will prove to be valuable in the future, even after they transfer to a different job. Last but not least, flight attendants are usually well paid. But there are some disadvantages as well. An obvious drawback is that, often, they cannot go back home everyday. This irregular pattern of life makes it difficult for them to stay with their families. What's more, some passengers can be rude and unpleasant. The most undesirable aspect of their job, however, is the danger of accidents. All the advantages of a flying career disappea。

1 Describe the higher education you have received. What's your attitude towards it.With the development of our country, the higher education system is also facing a new stage of development.Compared with the past, people have a greater chance to accept higher education. Since the implementation of the reform and opening-up policy, the gross enrollment ratio of higher education has reached to 20%. And the professional system keeps perfecting.It has got some achievements in structural reform, but there are some serious problems in higher education system. I think China's education system has the problem which only focus on students' grades but not teach them how to behave in a right way, and also ignores the creativity of the students. Many college students in US have invented a lot of practical things, while in our country few college students have invented anything. Except this, the higher education also neglects the cultivation of the students’ practical ability. The college students only know the principles but don’t know how to use. If only the higher education in china gives the students more time in practice, it will be an exciting event for many students.2 What is your favorite color? What is the relationship between colors and people's personality?The color you like can tell your personality. For example, if you like red, you may be a strong and lively person. You are always full of energy, have a lot emotions.People who like red enjoy life, and like to achieve results. You probably like sports and good food. In fact, you are active and energetic and would make a good leader. Be careful not to overdo things and make sure you relax by listening to music reading, etc. This will give your life a balance between activity and relaxation.Yellow黄色You are a open, cheerful and friendly person and you enjoy change. You are energetic, but in fits and starts; a few days of hard work followed by a less energetic period, and then more hard work again. Your energies are often directed towards the future; you want to modernize and improve the present.Dark blue深蓝If you choose this color it means that you need peace and quiet at the moment. Maybe you’ve b een working hard and need to relax. You like calm, problem-free relationship with others and an orderly environment. You like calm, problem-free relationship with others and an orderly environment.Blue green蓝绿You have a strong will. When you de cide to do something, you don’t change your mind easily. You don’t like to fail in what you do. Because of your determination to do a job well, you must be careful of tension which can cause stomach upsets. So make sure you get enough physical exercise to give yourself time to relax.BrownBrown is the color of the earth and nature. People who favor brown have often had a few problems recently which have made them feel some discomfort. Has this happened to you? If so, you may feel you need a quiet and comfortableenvironment, surrounded by nature.Violet紫色You are charming and very sensitive. People may find you fascinating and a little mysterious. You enjoy literature and music and have a tendency to live in a “dream world”---and then feel disappointed when you see reality.3 Describe an important festival in China. What do people usually do at that time. (what) The Spring Festival, is one of the major traditional festivals in China. (when) It falls on the first day of the first lunar month.(what to do) Ways to celebrate the Chinese new year vary from place to place, but generally speaking, setting fireworks and firecrackers is a shared tradition and people across China decorate their house with the red color.(whether) In recent years, Spring festival is more like a time for family get-together and personal relaxation, not a tradition to celebrate.(where) Chinese people would like to spend the holiday at home, watching TV or playing mahjong.(who) On this day, family members who study or work away from home all come back and stay together. It is a time for family reunion.(why) It is essential to have such a festival to celebrate, because it offers the working people a chance to slow down, to strengthen the family bond and more importantly, to remember their tradition.4 Describe a city you have visited, which has impressed you so much. Why is it so impressive?I have visited many cities, but the city impressed me most is Suzhou. Suzhou is a city with more than 2000 years. In the city, you can feel its long history by the 1000 bridge on the river whose age is more than 1000 years and the gingko trees standing in the gardens. There is a proverb which is well known in china:” There is Paradise above and Suzhou Hangzhou below.”Suzhou is famous for its gardens, canals, silk, lakes, opera.The Suzhou classical gardens are UNESCO World Heritage listed and are the reason why the city has become one of the most revered cities in China.The characteristic of Suzhou gardens is that no matter where the visitors standing there is always a perfect picture. Suzhou is a city on the water. There are many rivers across the city which makes you think about the peom:” The beautiful scenery of little bridge, running water and cute house.” And Suzhou is also renowned for its colourful culture. It has Kunqu, also called Kun Opera, one of the oldest forms of Chinese Operas. You can sit in the stone-chair, drink a cup of tee, listening the kun opera. I love the old streets most, there are many Characteristic shop selling silk and cheongsam. In short, Suzhou is very romantic city.5 Compare your time with your parents'. What are the same and what has been changed since then.There are three main differences between our time and our parents. The first is the difference between foods. Before the reform and opening-up policy, food scarcity is big problem bothering lots of families. Many foods are distributed according to the number of people. In those days, many people suffered with hunger and deficiency of nutrition. But after the policy, all the people in China have solved the problem offood deficiency. Nowadays, the people pay more attention on the safety of food and the nutrition of food. The second is the difference between the clothes. In our parents’ time, because of the low level of economic, people should use the tickets to buy cloth making clothes. And the style along with the color of clothes is monotonous. With the development of economic, today the clothes are very colorful. The clothes become a way to show the people’s character. The third difference is the way to travel. In the past, the most popular way people choose is on walk. While now, our nation’s traffic condition has improved obviously. Roads become more and more wide, the speed become faster and faster, and almost every family have a car.The similarity of our parents’ and our time is that we are all leaded by the communist party of China.6 What is brain drain? What are the causes and effects of it?Brain drain is a buzzword that describes the departure or emigration of individuals with technical skills or knowledge.There are three causes. The first is the salary. Many individuals with technical skills can get a very high salary in foreign countries, but in China, they may not get the salary as high as in other countries. The second is ways of management. In China, all the people have to obey the boss, while abroad the relationship between boss and stuff is equal. The last is the chance to be promoted. It is very hard to get promoted in many state-owned enterprises, but maybe it is easier in USA where most things depend on yourself.There are many effects caused by Brain drain. To the country that many individuals go abroad, it is a great loss. It can weaken the potential of the development in the country, and then cause the speed of economic growth going down. Becides, it can also lead to the imbalance between the structure of people and society. Because the individuals with knowledge are full of vitality and energy. They are the pillar of the country.7 Tell me why you prefer a special book, music, sports or film.Nowadays, there are a great deal of pressure and brothering things. And when I come across these things, I would like to do some sports to relieve. The sports I like most is yoga. Yoga practice contains the central ideas that physical posture and alignment can influence a person’s mood and self-esteem, and also that the mind can be used to shape and heal the body. Yoga can provide the same benefits as any well-designed exercise program, increasing general health and stamina['stæmɪnə]持久力, reducing stress, and improving those conditions brought about by sedentary ['stæmɪnə] lifestyles. Yoga has the added advantage of being a low-impact activity that uses only gravity as resistance. Certain yoga postures can be safely used to strengthen and balance all parts of the body.8 Is there any school pressure on children in China? What can be done to relieve it? Yes, there is. Nowadays there are more and more pupils who committed suicide because of too much homework they cannot finished on time. So we can see the school pressure on children in China.The Chinese always value the academic performance. And scores on courses are the way to measure the students’ academic performance. Scores students got are also away to evaluate a school is good or not. Schools want to make more students enrolled so they can make more money and the parents who want their child to be something would like to send their child to these schools. Schools have to urge the students to study hard, and compare the students, rank the students, leave lots of homework.I think the best way to relieve the pressure is education reform. But education reform may be a long way to go in China. And the parents should not overemphasize the scores of children. There are many things more important than academic performance such as how to behave and how to care things around them. I think that the quality of teachers need to improve. If the teacher compare the children less and give them more praise, then the pressure on the children can relieve to some extant.9 What's the difference between dreaming dreams and realizing dreams? Dreaming dreams mean the dream is beyond your ability and even though you have tried your best to do it , you may never realize it or you have a dream but you never try to get it. But the realizing dreams has a clear goal, you can make your plan according to the goal. And realizing dreams is practical, it is in your ability. If you try your best, you can reach the goal, realizing the dream.10 Describe your hometown. Is there anything special about it?My hometown is the in the city of Yantai located in Shandong province.Yantai City lies in the northeastern part of Shandong peninsula, bordering on the Bohai Sea and the Yellow Sea. It is situated at the foot of the hill and beside the sea with beautiful scenery. It has a long history and its culture atmosphere is very good.

Yunfen, Changdao Island-the fairy land on the sea, Horse Raising Isle, National Forest Parks, natural preservation areas, provincial tourist and holiday resorts. The graceful islands, fascinating gulf and blue water with golden sands make Yantai one of the tourist sites and summer resorts in northern China. The simple and honest life style, fresh and opening culture, rich tourist resources and colorful touring activities of Yantai will bring you a new sense of recreation.Yantai is famous for its specialty such as apple, pear, cherry and sea food. Yantai is the birthplace of Shandong cuisine. There are two sentences that can express we Yantai people's voice: "the mountains and the sea of feelings, you and me in Yantai " and "love in yantai, difficult to leave."。

Environmental problems are becoming more and more serious all over the world, so is my hometown. Nowadays, there are many kinds of environmental problems in my hometown.For example, the most obvious problem is water pollution, the rivers are not as clean as they were any more, worsely, fishes in it were died since these years,it is mainly caused by industrialproduction and the use of chemical substances in agriculture .Then is the solid waste pollution. We all know that solid waste occupying and polluting land, it also can increase the incidence of acid rain.That is all, thank you.3.what is being done to deal with the problems?To deal with the problems , our government has taken many concrete measures.

However, it also means you'll have a lot of problems to deal with, especially how to get on well with others.Nuclear familyNuclear family refers to a family consisting of parents and their children. It is the most common family structure in the society which represents most people's life. DINK family“DINK” means Double Income and No Kids. When we talk about family, usually we think of children, who are very lovely and naïve with big eyes, soft hair and round faces and always asking funny questions. But nowadays many young couples refuse to breed children. Then the family with only wife and husband is called “DINK family”.Single-parent familySingle-parent families are families with children under age 18 headed by a parent who is widowed or divorced and not remarried, or by a parent who has never married.The reasons for single-parent families are different.

I can have delicious food and wear new clothes .I can also get some money and gifts from my parents.On the first day of the new year, everybody wears new clothes and greets relatives and friends with bows and congratulations wishing each other the best during the new year.Also, on the eve of the Spring Festival, The first thing we often do is to paste a spring couplet on doors which is written on red paper to give a happy and prosperous atmosphere.

After all, most people want to enjoy themselves rather than have plenty of money without a sense of achievement and happiness. On the other hand, some people may choose a well-paid job instead of a job close to their heart to earn more money. If one is inserious financial difficulty, one can hardly afford the luxury of a dream job. Money is the top priority.2. Do you think one's character is important in finding a job? Why or why not?I think it is. Although many employers lay emphasis on candidates' educational background and work experience, some believe that candidates' character is equally important for a successful career. In contemporary society, many projects are so large that they require the coordination of a group of people rather than a single person's effort. Therefore, a good team player is often welcomed. Professionally skilled people may not be able to accomplish a large project if they are easily angered and cannot get along with their colleagues. If you want to assume a leading position, you should be firm on important issues while allowing your subordinates plenty of freedom. In fact, it is becoming increasingly common for companies to test candidates' EQ (emotional quotient) before they decide to hire them.3. What questions do you think are often asked in an interview? Why are they asked?To start with, the interviewers may ask you about your education. In this way they can gather information to see if you have acquired the basic knowledge required for the job you are applying for. Perhaps most of them will ask you about your work experience in this field to see if you have the necessary skills for the job you have in mind. Usually employers do not like an entirely inexperienced employee. They may also ask about your character, weaknesses and strengths to find out what kind of person you are. They may even ask you something that is not directly related to the job in question. Your answers tend to show your intelligence level and communication skills.单元八1、Why do you think some people smoke? What are the disadvantages of smoking?Some people think smoking makes them relax. Some people smoke just because all those around them smoke. Some believe that by passing cigarettes around, it will be easier for them to start a friendship. Others claim that smoking is a precondition for a booming tobacco industry, which in turn ensures a large tax income for the state. But I think those reasons, if we can call them reasons, are insignificant compared with the harm smoking brings. Smoking is harmful to one's health. It can lead to many diseases. Long-term smoking may result in lung disease, or even lung cancer. Also, some heavy smokers may suffer from breathing difficulty, high blood pressure, heart trouble, amongst other diseases. It has been proved that even non-smokers who breathe in the smoke can develop health problems. Moreover, cigarettes cost money. Some chain smokers consume two packs of cigarettes a day. This can be an unnecessary financial burden on a family that is not rich.2、In China becoming an old-age society ? Why? What problems can this cause and how can we solve them?The aging of the population depends on mortality and fertility, and the falling birthrate is the main factor to accelerate the aging of the population. Earlier entered the aging society of China is one of the developing countries. China's population aging is not only China's own problems, and relationship to the process of the aging of the population in the world, the world watches. An aging population will bring the elderly family intergenerational structure changes. Population aging makes the medical security problems of the elderly is becoming prominent. And it causes elderly dependency coefficient, family and social burden of raising the old man. Healthy old age security efforts and development, is to ensure social stability, one of the important measures to solve old support, need the help of the whole society and support.3、What problems can poverty cause ?Can you think of any solution to the problem of poverty?With the boom developing of economy, rich-poor divide is becoming more serious, many people are in poverty. Poverty may leads to some social problems. Owing to poverty, many children die of hunger and disease, leaving high mortality. What’s worse, crime rate is on the rise. Also, many kids can not be educated like their peers; many children have to drop out of school because of lacking of money. So, what can we do to solve the problem? I think the high-roller should pay more taxes. Our government also need invest huge funds into the poverty-stricken areas, providing with the basic prevent of life and creating more jobs. Last, as Chinese citizens, we should not look down upon poor man. On the contrary, we could try our best to help them get rid of poverty and become better to get rich.4、What should be done to help unemployed people?Before unemployed people find a new job, their basic living standard should be met. They need subsidies (补助金) from the government to maintain live a normal life, which includes money for food, clothes, shelter and transportation. It is also important for unemployed people to be trained for re-employment. The government should offer training programs to update their skills so that they will become competitive on in the job market again.对话单元二A: Most of the world’s rainforests are in danger of destruction by loggers, farmers and developers.

口试试题1. How do you define success? List two important elements which maycontribute to a successful career and briefly explain why.I think success is about achieving the little goals you set for yourself and give you a sense of accomplishment. It can be simple things such as passing an exam or bigger things like graduating from college.Target and Self-control. With the goal, the inner strength will find the right direction when you get lost in yourself and guide you to reach the destination. Self-control is one of the most difficult virtues and it plays an important role in grasping the chance of success. The biggest enemy of success is yourself. Lack of control over your emotions will waste a lot of fleeting opportunities.2. What is special about workaholics? In your opinion, we work to live or liveto work?They are not only constantly leaving late and coming in early and working all the time, but also talking nothing else beyond work and pay no attention to their family and friends.In my opinion, we should regard work as a way of making a living rather than all of live. As we all know, there are also many exciting things outside of work. For example, we can do some exercise like playing basketball or tennis with friends, we can go out to buy some beautiful clothes or delicious food, we can also go to a movie to relax ourselves or even have a very good sleep. Life without working can be insignificance, but life full of work is terrible, too. I hope we can keep the balance of life and work and enjoy both work and life.3. What factors may lead to people's overwork? How do you balance yourwork and life?Desire to live a better life and Low efficiency may lead to people’s overwork. First, I will put some important things on the top of my list so that I can figure out what to deal with first and foremost and I can finish my work better; Second, I will set aside one night each week for recreation or do some exercise to release the pressure of work; Last, I would use the vacation days to go to travel with family or friends to adjust myself.4. Opinions on the influence of media on people’s studies and life.Media has changed people's way of life and entertainment, by television and computers people can know what's happening in the world without going out. They can use computers directly to search for all kinds of knowledge without going to school or looking for teachers. They can shop without going out. The extensive use of telephones makes it convenient for people to contact and improves the efficiency of information exchange. Meanwhile,it also brings us some negative influence. For example, many young children are so addicted to online games that they can’t keep their mind on study, and some people begin to get short sighted because of sitting in front of the computer too long.5. Taobao’s success is a testament to the economic power of theInternet. Why do you think people like to visit such Internet commerce companies like and ?Jingdong and Taobao have a complete shopping support system, consumers can get more protection in the process of shopping.People can shop, see the goods and negotiate the transaction at any time through the Internet. If you are satisfied, you can order at any time without restriction of time, place and other conditions. There are also many different kinds of products available online.And the price is cheaper than thephysical store,which can reduce the cost to some extent.6. Sometimes our life is lacking joy and happiness. What can we do? Couldyou share with us your personal experience?We should arrange our own time reasonably and make plans accordingly. There so much work take up most of our time that we can’t enjoy life well. What we should do is making good use of spare time to do something we really like. Only in this way, can we make life rich, colorful and rewarding.Taking my own experience as an example, I used to feel tired after several hours of study,I would put down my hands and went to the playground to run or play basketball with my friends. After exercise, it not only improves learning efficiency, but also enriches life.7. Can you give some suggestions on solving the conflicts in interpersonalcommunication?Most conflicts are caused because lack of communication in our life.Conflicts can be resolved from the following aspects:First, understand each other in communication. Keeping mutual respect is the basic precondition to deal with the conflicts in interpersonal communication. It gives a greater opportunity for us to explain some misunderstands in a harmonious atmosphere. I think it’s very important. Second, learn to listen to others. Maybe you can find the wrong place between you and him/her. Good listening can really enable us to get closer to each other.Third, to build a good relationship, we should trust each other. Only in this way, can we enjoy an equal relationship.8. In your opinion, what is the greatest invention in human history? State yourreasons. Describe a useless invention, and explain why it is uselessFrom my perspective, computer is the most important invention in the world. Computer makes human beings’ life become easier. People can do many things that they can’t do before. They can read newspaper without buying it, only sitting in front of their computer, clicking mouse to open website. Shopping online, watching movies, listening to music and playing computer games are the common things that people often do by computer. But without computer, they can’t do all these easily. In addition, computer is also very helpful for study and work. People can have classes and work on it.I think that the alarm clock is a useless invention, you know, we always continue sleeping, even though the alarm clock is ringing .The alarm clock is a purely ornament.9. What do you think are the most important qualities for creative inventions?Please use examples to illustrate your statement.One of the most important qualities for creative inventions is the courage and determination that is not to be recalled for a purpose. For example, Edison failed over a thousand times before successfully invented the electric bulb, James Watt went through countless difficulties including money and opposition from others when he invented the steam engine, but he tried every means to overcome them. So far, it is still benefiting mankind.10. What is the most valuable life advice that you get from your parents? Whatis your principle of life?Become an honest and sincere person is the most valuable life advice that I got from my father in my childhood. He often seriously tells me that don't be a hypocrite but be consistent in words and deeds and treat person sincerely. I have always remembered in my heart. Be patient in everything you do, not arrogant or rash,cherish every opportunity that is helpful to your development.11. It is said that "all work and no play makes Jack a dull boy". Why do we needsome leisure time in life? And do you think it a good thing to have too much leisure time to yourself?Because in modern society, more and more people are suffering intention、anxiety and pressure that caused by some work or other annoyed things. So the leisure time is often indispensable in our daily life. We can use the leisure time to do something that we like and relax ourselves from nervous work. I think it is not so good to have too much leisure time in my life. Otherwise it will be a serious waste if I couldn’t make full use of the leisure time. You know time is the most treasure for us.12. Please list three factors which may influence your choice of an ideal joband explain why the three factors top your list.Salary, company's interpersonal environment and development prospects will be the first concerned factors for me. You know, Salary is important and I don’t want to say more about this. As for the company's interpersonal environment and development prospects, I want to say, I can’t get along with other colleagues so harmoniously without a good company's interpersonal environment. I think the harmonious atmosphere is indispensable to build a very strong and cohesive company. The development prospects are also important, I hope that my company will be the diamond in the rough and can be better and better.13. What is an ideal job in your mind? In what sense d oes a person’s job helpimprove his/her sense of well-being?They devote themselves to their work and realize the value of life, promote the development of society and make more people live happily through their hard work. They make great contribution to society and at the same time they also find pleasure from their work.14. What can contribute to a harmonious society? Do you think we alwaysneed to look at others in our life and view them as examples?A harmonious society, in my view, should be one where its people show deep love for the nation. Besides, the citizens enjoy a high standard of civilization, respecting and caring for each other. Most importantly, people in such society ought to live in harmony with nature, which makes sustainable development possible. I don’t think that we always need to look at others in our life and view them as examples. That is their life, not yours. What we should do, I want to say, is just doing ourselves bravely and trying our best to do it better in a right way. Maybe you will feel relaxed if you no longer suffering the peer pressure.15. What is your opinion on artificial intelligence? If robots with humanemotions were invented one day, do you think it a bless or a curse for mankind? Why?Every coin has two sides, as far as I'm concerned, it will bring more good influence rather than bad. There is no doubt that we can see the benefits it brings to our life everywhere. As for the second question, I think that maybe it’s not a bless and not a so bad news yet. You know, human emotions are so sophisticated that we often can’t control them so better, and don’t know how to deal with the bad emotions sometimes. Human beings are still like this, how about the robots with human emotions were invented one day. Maybe they will become uncontrolled, that is hard to say. However, it is the result of the technological society, we should develop the artificial intelligence in a right way and that is what I want to say.。
