(Q's about your personal background )
1.What’s your favorite subject/course? Do you think people who major in your field can find a job easily when they graduate?
Well , I’m interested in many subjects . But my favorite one is English coz you know English abilities give you a competitive edge and improve your chances of employment. Also, a good command of English may help you a lot when traveling around the world.
You know I’m majoring in information security which belongs to computer science. And I think people who major in the field can find a job easily,because information security is really a promising field.People working in the field also get a high salary but as a result they often work overtime .
2.Is your hometown a good place for young people? Can you tell me something about the public transport system in your hometown? What do you dislike about your hometown?
You know my hometown Zhenjiang is a small but fabulous city which located at the side of Changjiang river. As I see it , Zhenjiang is a pretty good place for young folks coz you know Zhenjiang is a peaceful and quiet city. People there are living a cozy life. Young folks can go hiking, jogging and even fishing in their leisure time. This is benefit for their growth. So my hometown is a good place for the young.
Zhenjiang has a developed transport system, which is made up of minibus, shuttle bus, ferry and so on. It is quite convenient coz the bus routes are designed reasonably so that everyone in the city can arrive wherever they want . Besides , the bus drivers in Zhenjiang are pretty gentle.
When talking about the things that I dislike in my hometown , I may say the roads coz you know the roads there are so narrow that during peaking hours the buses almost can't move.But the government is planning to broaden the roads and I think the traffic problems will get solved in the near future.
3.Do you live in a house or a flat? Have you ever considered moving to another place? Which is your favourite room in your house/ flat? Do you like your neighbours?
I live in an apartment with my parents. Even it is small and a little bit decrepit , I still love it because I have lived in the apartment for almost 10 years. It contains many precious memories of mine. So I have never considered moving out.
My favorite room is my bedroom coz I decorate it with my favorite photos , books and dolls.
Coz we family live in an apartment ,we seldom meet our neighbors .But we are in a good relationship because we often help each other .For
example, when it rains ,they will remind me or my parents to put away clothes vice versa. Such little things happen a lot.
4.Can you drive? How often do you take a taxi? When was the last time you took a taxi?
Yes, I can. I got my driving license last year. I spent a lot of time learning driving skills and traffic laws so that I could pass the exam. I can drive to somewhere far away with my friends nowadays, it brings me a lot of fun.
I seldom take a cab coz you know when compared with bus and subway, the cost of taking a cab is much higher. But if I’m in a hurry to do something,cab will be my first choice.
The last time I took a taxi was this Monday. I was going to take a party but I was late. So in order to be punctual I took a taxi. Fortunately I arrived there in time.
5.Do you think bicycles will become more popular in the future?
Have you ever travelled by train? Do people in your country like to travel by train?
Well，as you know，China is a developing country which already have a lot of bicycles . Instead of bicycles I think cars will become more popular in the future coz cars benefit a lot to our daily life and the price is becoming acceptable to more people .
Yes , I travelled by train a lot of times coz you know as a kind of public transport system, railway system in China is being developed in a fast speed. We can arrive at the destination timely. So it is convenient for us to travel or work by train.
6.Why is it important to be punctual? Are you often late for things?
Well，you know as the pace of life is becoming faster and faster , time for us modern people is more precious when compared with the past I think. So it is necessary for us to be punctual, especially when we work, attend class go for a date and so on. Also,being punctual is also some kind a polite manner. So I’m seldom late for things which makes my friends think I’m a punctual person.
7.Can you tell me something about your favorite kind of TV shows? Do you think the TV shows today are different from the TV shows you watched as a child?
Well, although I seldom watch TV, I do like ELLEN SHOW which is broadcast in America and I watch it on the Internet. Ellen show is a interview program which always starts with an audience dance and the host—Ellen degenous is a humous women. The way she talking with the Interviewees can make the whole audience laugh out loud. What’s more I can learn many fields of the oversea culture though Ellen show which is a good way to broaden my horizon.
Let me think about it. Well,judging from the form and content I do think the TV shows nowadays are different from the TV shows I watched as a little girl. The TV shows nowadays are richer and more colorful and hence attracting more audience.
8.How many languages can you speak? Do you want to learn another language? How are you going to learn it?
You know I have been learning English since primary school and I learnt French last year in my university also I’m learning Japanese this term. So adding Chinese I can speak 4 languages . But my french and Japanese are not that fluent because of the lack of practice.
Cuz my french and Japanese are not very good ,so I don’t wanna swift my time to another language at present. If I can command the two languages to some extend,maybe I would set up my mind to learn another.
Well, when talking about the method of learning a new language,I think the quickest way to get to know the basic components of a language is to have the classes. But you know the teacher only plays a role of guiding you to learn it , to acquire it and command it, you need to understand and practice.
9.Do you often use dictionaries? Do you use paper dictionaries or electronic dictionaries?
As a student majoring in computer science ,I have to read lots of materials that are written in English ,so I use dictionaries frequently.Actually I don’t even have a paper dictionary cuz it’s too heavy to carry.

When you enter the door,there is a living room.On the left side,there are 2 bedrooms.One is for my parents and the other is for me.On the right side ,it comprised of 3 rooms.They are study,kitchen and bathroom.

Describe a garden / park.
Describe a place far away from your home.
I’d like to talk about my favorite gardens in my hometown.It is called 沃德garden and it is located at the centre of my hometown so it is kind of a symbol of my hometown —-Zhenjiang.
The garden don’t charge entrance fees ,so everyone can enter the garden as many times as they want.Inside you can immediately see two line statues at the both side of the entrance.As you go further, you will come across a fountain and in it you will see a lot of coins,because tourists see it as a wishing fountain.Not far from the fountain you will see a big lake and a man-made island in the center.People often spend their time fishing around the lake.

The place that I travelled when I was a child is Xihu,which is a famous place in city Hangzhou. This is a fabulous city with great food ,friendly local people and of course beautiful sceneries.
I travelled with my parents and a friend of mine—兆秋.It only took us 3 hours by bus I remembered to get to Xihu. During the bus time ,me and 兆秋were asked to play an act, so we two sang a song,and after that the whole people in bus clapped for us.
When we arrived at our destination Xihu. We were immediately attracted by the huge and peaceful lake. Since it was summer, there were many lotus leaves and lotus flowers which made the lake full of vigor . We four people rent a boat to go boating , with the breeze and the splendid water , I suddenly felt it was a dream, so wonderful.
After that ,we visited a tower beside the lake. It is a seven-floor tower which was first constructed in宋dynasty,and it has been rebuilt for lot of times. When we climb the tower we found many rilievoes and paintings which all have a long history. It is a good way for children to learn about the culture of China.
The food there is also worth mentioning. Although I can’t remember all the food I ate, Xihu cuyu was impressional. It was a dish that made of fish caught from Xihu , the out layer of the fish was crisp because the cook wrapped up the fish with wheat flour and then fried the fish.The fresh of fish was tender and a little bit sour. If I have a chance, I will go there for a second time!

Describe a place where you studied or worked before.
The place I’d like to talk about is my primary school—-高桥primary school , where I spent 6 years studying and playing .
The school is two streets away from my home. It always took me 10 minutes to walk to school. In my memory the gate of the school was guarded by two old men.Only when you took along the school card which was given out by the school as a school ID can you enter the school.
After you enter the school, you’ll find a big playground, and we have two playgrounds, this is one for doing exercises and the other one which is located at the back of our school is used for students to take PE classes. When you go further ,you’ll come across our teaching buildings.These are 3 linked buildings and each building is used for two grades, for example ,the building one is used for grade 1 and grade 2,the building 2 is used for grade 3 and grade 4 and so on. Just behind the teaching building you find a small gym,but we seldom use it .Only when we come across the rainy days we will go to the gym to have PE classes.
The environment of my primary school is also great. On every tree planting festival, the leader of each grade will plant a tree in our campus so in our school you can see a lot of trees.
I think it’s really an honor to spend my childhood life there, I made lots of friends and had lots of fun there.
