11、t. I think college is interesting and inviting. I enjoy it a lot. I learned very a lot from my university life and Im growing. The most challenging aspect in university is that I should try to be excellent both in study and other aspects. In my class, everyone studies hard, and they also pay attenti
12、on to promoting their competitive ability by attending many kinds of activities. For example, one of my classmates has a part-time job in a bank. So I should study hard and attend some activities to keep up with my classmates. By this way, I find I am no longer a child, Im more self-dependent now. H

Which course do you think is most interesting? Why? The most interesting course is the course named “Marketing“. There are so
15、 many case studies in this course, such as those on Coca-cola, GE and so on. There are also many cases about the construction of China. In this course, all the students are divided into several groups to discuss. Before discussion everybody can make a presentation. In this way we learn very much abo
16、ut marketing, and we also can promote our speaking ability. E How do you like the food in the dining halls? A There are seven dining halls in my university. They have their own qualities respectively. Some food is very delicious, though its not as tasty as the food in restaurants and my home. Severa
17、l months ago, there was a new dining hall completed. Its very beautiful and clean. As soon as I enter this dining hall, Im always hungry because the food in this dining hall is so tasty. There is so much spicy food which is my favorite kind of food. E Thank you. Now wed like to know something about
18、you,Candidate B, so Im going to ask you some questions. E What do you usually do on weekends? B Now I have a part-time job on the weekends. So I dont even rest after five days of study. Its a trade corporation. Because my major is international trade, I want to develop my experience. Its very import
19、ant for my future job hunting. Although it is a bit tiring, I enjoy it. I want to challenge myself to grow. Several months ago, my weekend life was very comfortable. I got up very late in the morning and I would go shopping or chat with my good friends. Its really memorable. E Can you tell us someth
20、ing about the activities organized by the Student Union in your university? B The Student Union is a good part of my university. Every term the Student Union organizes many activities. There are several activities which impress me most. Just several days ago, the Student Union invited a famous forei
21、gn professor to give us a lecture on the academic career. In this lecture, the professor told us why he chose academics as his career, and the abilities we should have if we want to go in for academic work. Its really edificatory.

24、相互问答 2 【正确答案】 E Now, Id like you to talk about something for about 3 minutes. Im just going to listen. Id like you to discuss about courses in college. A Id like to have fewer courses. There are so many courses in my major that I have no time to study by myself and take part in other activities I am
25、 interested in. B Maybe in your major the courses are too many. But as for me, Id like to have more courses. Im a student of mathematics. There are many core courses in my specialty, and we should learn them to perfect our mathematics knowledge. A Yes, I agree with you. I think having more courses i
26、s helpful to obtain systemic knowledge. All courses in one area have some internal connections with each other, especially in science courses such as mathematics. B Im afraid I cant agree with you, because having more courses offers us more opportunities to learn from our teachers. The teachers are
27、always very professional in some field; their professional knowledge is obviously very important for us. A Well, maybe this view is reasonable, but for my part, I prefer fewer courses. I think the most important thing for university students is to master a learning method, not to get as much knowled
28、ge as they can. Its also very important to contribute their knowledge into practice. If there are too many courses, the students would have no time to attend extracurricular activities. B Yes, if there are too many courses, students havent enough time to study by themselves. They can not study well,
29、 because they will not comprehend and remember the knowledge taught in the classes only by listening to the teachers. Teachers should teach the students how to study instead of telling the students all of what they know. If students master a learning method, they need not have as many courses as the
30、y can, and they may go to the library to read the reference books or visit some academic websites to get information and knowledge. A Sorry to interrupt you. Although developing a kind of learning ability is more important for university students than to get some knowledge, obtaining basic knowledge
31、 in university is also important, and extracurricular activities affect our study negatively. B But university students should also learn a great deal of knowledge of other fields, and they should learn how to adapt themselves to the society instead of “the tower of ivory“. A Sure. But I think our u
32、niversity has considered this. There are so many subjects offered from different fields. You can choose any one of them. B But what I mean is that we should learn knowledge from our society or social work instead of courses. There is much knowledge we cant learn from courses unless we take part in s
33、ome social activities. B Why did you say that extracurricular activities affect our study negatively? A Generally speaking, extracurricular activities require us to devote a lot of time, and some-times our activities axe in conflict with our regular study time. I had this experience last year. In or
34、der to organize an English Debate Contest, I held a discussion among the members of the Student Unioa And then I had to arrange the time and place, and make a poster to call on students to participate in it. Then, I arranged the time schedule for the debating teams and invited some teachers to be a
35、panel of judges. With so many things, I could hardly concentrate myself on my study, so this term I quit this job. A Whats your favorite course? Name one or two courses you enjoy most and give your reasons. B Every term we will have about five courses, so Ill have at least thirty courses in my colle
36、ge life. Among them, I like the course “International Trade“ most. There are several reasons. Firstly, as you know, my major is international trade, so this course is one of my core courses. Im very interested in this field. I wanted to do well in this course. Secondly, I like the teacher. She is al
37、ways so kind, and usually gives us very clear and interesting lectures. She often gives us some case studies to start a discussion. During the discussions, we can learn more professional knowledge. B Which course or courses do you like the least? And why? A There are a lot of courses I dont like. Ev
38、ery required course is useful to us in fact. But why are some of them boring? I think the reason is that the teachers dont know how to teach us. They are just standing there reading what has been clearly written in the textbooks. It seems that they are speaking with themselves instead of us. Maybe s
39、ometimes they want to tell us a joke, but its not humorous at all. There are no lively examples in these classes. So, I think it is really a waste of time to attend these kinds of classes. Id rather not go to class, and usually I will go to the library to read some reference books. Its more valuable
40、. A How many classes do you have in a week? Should the number of courses be cut down or increased? B This term I have seven subjects. Every week I have to have thirty classes, and six classes per day on average. Its too many for me. There are only three nights for me to review the knowledge learned
41、in the class every week. Its not enough for me. And I also want to have time to do some part-time jobs to enrich my work experience. So, I think the number of courses should be cut down. B What do you think of your English courses? Do you like the way its taught? What are your suggestions? A I dont
42、like my English course. I think the English education in my university is a failure in fact. Above all its still a teacher-centered class, almost the same as my middle school English class. I dont like this way. No doubt it is a natural product of the deep-rooted examination-oriented education. But
43、with the development of our modern society, English is more and more important. Before looking for our jobs, we university and college students should be excellent in listening, writing and speaking. But we cant progress our English ability especially speaking English in my English classes. My sugge
44、stion is that the class should change to a student-centered class. The teacher and students are all actors and all the students are actively involved in the classroom activities. 三、继续性问答 3 【正确答案】 E Now,Id like each of you to talk on your own for about one and a half minutes. Im going to give each of
45、 you a different picture and Id like you to talk about it. Candidate A,here is your picture(swimming, jogging). Please let Candidate B have a look at it. A Well, in the pictures, we can see that people are doing outdoor sports. I enjoy outdoor sports, such as swimming, jogging and so on. When we do
46、them, we can, at the same time, enjoy the beautiful scenery around us as well as the sunshine and fresh air. They can make us more energetic. The majority of teenagers like to carry on outdoor sporting activities. On the football field there is a lot of room for us to run about. This is a kind of te
47、am sport. This team sport can develop our team spirit, which is very important for us college students. As for indoor sports, we cant enjoy the sunshine and fresh air, and not everybody can afford to play it. E Thank you. Candidate B, is there anything else you would like to say about this picture?
48、B If its in summer, Ill prefer indoor sports, because its too hot and I cant bear the scorching sunshine. If its in winter, Ill prefer outdoor sports. It is warmer outdoors, and the sunshine is so fine. E Candidate B.here is your card(table tennis and tennis). Please let Candidate A have a look at i
49、t. (Hand over the picture to Candidate B) Id like you to describe the picture and also tell us about it. Remember you have only about one and a half minutes for this. B In this picture, people are playing different kind of sports. I just think both outdoor sports and indoor sports have their advantages and disadvantages respectively. If we play outdoor sports, we can breathe fresh air, and enjoy the beautiful scenery of our campus. The fee of outdoor sports is usually not very high, so students can afford it. But if the wea
