5、Part 1 (2 minutes) E First of all, wed like to know something about you,so Im going to ask some questions about yourselves. E How do you like campus life? (Why do you think so?) A The campus life is interesting and challenging, so I enjoy it. Above all, campus life is an important stage in my life.
6、Its entirely different from the life in high school. Now, I live at a dormitory with my classmates, while in high school. I lived with my family. Everything seems fresh to me when I began my campus life. The campus is very large and there are many buildings. I was excited and curious when the first
7、class began. I had a great number of new schoolmates. In the library, there are so many books. I was determined to study hard. There are so many extracurricular activities on campus, and I took part in several of them. Like Newton, Im searching for beautiful shells on the beach of knowledge. E What
8、do you think is the most attractive aspect of campus life? A The most attractive aspect of my campus life, I think, is to take part in rich extracurricular activities in our spare time. In our spare time, we play badminton, table tennis, football, and volleyball, any kind of sports we like. Also, we
9、 have a lot of contests such as speech contests and debates. And for music lovers, there is a Music Association in which they practice singing and appreciate great musical works together. Actually there are about one hundred of student associations on campus. In a word, there are numerous extracurri
10、cular activities on campus. I can learn much from them and my life is colorful and exciting because of them. E Do you find it easy to get along with your classmates? (Why or why not?) A Yes, its easy to get along with my classmates. Although there were some problems among us, we solved them finally.
11、 Actually all my classmates are considerate and helpful. They can understand other classmates easily, and help the classmates who are having difficulties and troubles. Certainly, our characteristics and personalities are different, so sometimes there will be some disagreements among us. But if we ar
12、e confronted with problems, well have a discussion to solve them. Im so fortunate to have such classmates as them. E Can you say something about the living conditions on campus? B All students are complaining about the living conditions on campus, so do I. Firstly, our dormitory is too crowded. The
13、room is only five meters long and three meters wide, but there are six students sharing a room. We have no personal room expect for our beds. Secondly, the condition of the classrooms is bad, too. The doors are noisy when they are open or closed. There are no fans in the classrooms, so it is very ho
14、t with more than one hundred of students having their class in a room. Its also very cold in winter. Our library is air-conditioned, so every student wants to study in the library. The result is that its very crowded in the library. We are expecting our university to invest more money in improving t
15、he living conditions, because we cant put up with it any longer. E Do you find life on campus convenient? Please give your reasons. B Certainly its very convenient if you live on campus. Firstly, your dormitory is near the classroom, library, dining halls and so on. You can go everywhere on campus o
16、n foot or by bicycle. You need not take a motorcycle or ride a bicycle for over ten minutes to do something. Secondly, in my university, the Internet is free. You can download your favorite movies and music from some sites. But if you live off campus, you cant share these conveniences. Finally, livi
17、ng in dormitory with your classmates is more convenient to get information on lectures, jobs and so on, which is very important to everybody. So, I like living on campus in spite of the bad living conditions. E What should the university do to make campus life more colorful? B The first thing I thin
18、k is to improve the living and teaching conditions. A comfortable life is the foundation of a colorful campus life. And if everywhere is crowded, you cant concentrate on studying or have a good rest after study. Whats more, universities should encourage the development of student associations and ho
19、ld many kinds of activities such as the contest of “The Top Ten Singers on Campus“. Students can get a great deal of joy and knowledge from these activities. E What do you think of your teachers and professors? (Please give your reasons) B Im a third year student, so there are many teachers and prof
20、essors who have taught me. Some of them are very good. However, some of them are boring. Some teachers and professors have rich teaching experience and they know how to teach. They give us lively examples and case study in class; they organize discussions among us very well. In this way, they can st
21、imulate our imagination and interests, and spontaneously we learn much from the classes. But, there are some teachers and professors who are very boring. They just stood in front of us, reading what has been clearly written in the textbooks. We were all very sleepy at that time. Its really a waste o
22、f time. 二、考生相互问答 2 【正确答案】 E Now, Id like you to talk about something between yourselves. You should take care to share the opportunity of speaking. A From my point of view, even though there was a perfect rules system which involved every detailed aspect of campus life, without good regulation, the
23、rules system would be of no use. For example, the teacher of the library should stop the students from making noises; the invigilator should invigilate the students strictly; the conductor of dormitory buildings should inspect the building frequently to avoid the use of electric appliance. As long a
24、s they do well in their jobs, there should be no violations of the rules and regulations. Otherwise, students would violate rules and regulations frequently. B But universities dont have enough money to invest in the supervision of rules and regulations. Its really costly. A Yes, what you said is re
25、asonable. If students can do well in self-discipline, we wont have to worry about the high cost of supervision. So, I think the fact why some of the rules and regulations are violated is due to the neglecting of rules and regulation education. B Oh, I couldnt agree more. As everybody knows, preventi
26、on is not effective but self-discipline. University should pay attention to the education of rules and regulations, and make the students realize the serious consequences of violating the rules and regulations. If students can do well in self-discipline, they can also supervise each other. A I think
27、 prevention is still effective. As long as universities do well in supervision, it will be OK. You said the supervision is costly. I dont think so. As long as the punishment method is rigorous, the violations can be stopped. So I cant understand why some of the rules and regulations are frequently b
28、roken. The reason is that the punishment method is not rigorous enough. For example, if a cribbers degree is cancelled there would be no other student who would still dare to do such a thing. B Yes, I agree with you. It has been proven by many facts. A From my point of view, there are several reason
29、s why some of the rules and regulations are frequently broken, such as bad regulations, no rigorous punishment methods and no education on abidance of rules and regulations. So, our universities should do many things to make our rules and regulations strictly obeyed. A Why did you say that the effec
30、tiveness of rigorous punishment methods has been proven by many facts? B Ok, Ill give you a good example. Nowadays many countries have made rigorous punishment methods against the violation of rules and regulations, and it has proven to be very effective. For example, if you threw garbage here and t
31、here in Singapore, the fine would be very high. So, nobody throws garbage here and there in Singapore now. So, our university should establish rigorous punishment methods to the violator of rules and regulations. B Are ail the rules and regulations in your university reasonable? (Give one or two exa
32、mples. ) A Yes, most of the rules and regulations in my university are reasonable. However, some of them are not reasonable and we students often complain about them. Take the rules of electricity as an example. Its right to forbid the use of electricity, but its unreasonable to shut off the electri
33、city at 11 oclock every night. In fact, its not convenient to our lives especially in summer. We cant use fans without electricity, so we often wake up because of the heat. A If any of your classmates did not observe the university rules and regulations, what would you do? B I would tell them the ru
34、les and regulations. Other students might not stand up to tell their classmates that they violated some rules or regulations because they are afraid of offending their classmates. In fact, I think they are disingenuous and I would look down upon them. Rules and regulations are made to keep our campu
35、s lives in order, and if someone violates them, there must be some other students who would be affected negatively. Besides, most violators are not aware that what they did is a violation. Otherwise, they would not do so. So, we are responsible to tell our classmates the rules and regulations, and I
36、m not afraid to offend them. On the contrary, I think only by doing so can we be good friends. 三、继续性问答 3 【正确答案】 E Im going to give each of you a picture and Id like you to first briefly describe and then give your comment on what you see in the picture. Candidate A,this is your picture. You have thr
37、ee minutes to talk about it. A The card in my hand shows the changes in peoples leisure activities in the last twenty years. In the early 80s, most families were very poor, and TV sets were rare at that time. Maybe there is only one family that could afford a TV set in a whole town, so all villages
38、would go to that family to watch TV. It was crowded in the room, and it was also very interesting with so many people watching one television. Another leisure activity at that time was to see a hypaethral film on a playground in summer. Finally, in their spare time, people had no plaza or commercial
39、 centre to go shopping. They just bought goods in small shops usually with a salesperson standing behind the counter. But now, as the accommodation becomes a social demand in 90s, there are many kinds of leisure activities we can take part in. We can watch color television with our family, and its v
40、ery comfortable to sit on the sofa, chat with our parents when watching television. Also, in our spare time we can go out to practice singing in the Karaoke room with our friends. Moreover, you can make a travel for a week-long holiday. It helps to better your physical health and your perspective. M
41、ore and more families and students choose travel as their entertainment in holidays. In general, there are many more leisure activities than there were in the 80s. E Thank you. Now,candidate B,could you please ask your partner a question? B Why did you say that accommodation is a social demand? A Oh
42、, I think its very easy to explain. Everyone wants to have a commodious house, because it makes his or her life more comfortable. If you had no housing you would hesitate to marry. A commodious and bright house makes your family happier. So, I said that accommodation is a social demand. E OK. Candid
43、ate B,here is your picture. You also have three minutes to talk about your picture. B During the twenty years since 80s, great changes have taken place in transportation. The above picture shows the transportation of early 80s. Some people are riding their bicycles; some people are walking. There ar
44、e many people standing at the bus stop to wait for their buses, and the arriving bus is already very crowded. There is only one car running in the street. At that time, the Chinese motor vehicle industry was not well developed, and bicycles were one of the most popular vehicles. With the development
45、 of the economy, transportation is also improved greatly in 90s. Our country invested much money into the construction of transportation. The streets are widened, and there are more and more streets, highways and subways in China. In the second picture, two girls are waiting for a bus at the bus sto
46、p, and there are several buses and many cars running in the wide street. It reflects the changes taken place in transportation, compared with the first picture. Another picture is about a hypaethral bazaar. A housewife is buying food with a basket in her hand. Its sunny and hot, and maybe the basket
47、 is very heavy. The second picture is about a supermarket in the late 90s. There are many kinds of fruits, fishes and so on in the supermarket. The commodity is placed on the shelves in order. A woman is pushing a pushcart in which there are many things. These two different pictures show the changes
48、 that have taken place in the food, both in its varieties and the way to buy it. A Do you think its a good idea to replace low buildings with tall buildings in big cities? (Why?) B I think its a good idea. There are too many people in big cities. But the tract of cities is limited, so we should buil
49、d more housing on the limited tract to meet the increasing demand of increasing numbers of people. There is only one way, that is, to replace low buildings with tall buildings. Of course, there are some disadvantages in doing so. For example, its difficult to climb stairs if you live on the top floor. But in general, the advantages outweigh the disadvantages and its the only way to accommodate so many people in big cities.
