What kinds of people are most likely to become successful? 雅思(口语)模拟试卷 22答案与解析 一、 Speaking Module (10-15 minutes) 1 【正确答案】 Your work I work as a journalist for the China Daily. Ive been there for just over six years. Whilst I was at uni
7、versity, studying journalism, a professor recommended me to an editor at the China Daily. I went for a series of interviews and aptitude tests and was eventually offered a job as a trainee. After six months, I was promoted and given a position in the sports department. I work full-time. The China Da
8、ily, like most newspapers in China, doesnt employ many part-time journalists. Very. Almost every weekend, I cover a major sporting event and during the week I usually interview sportsmen and sportswomen or other people connected with sport in some way, such as trainers and officials. Im planning to
9、take some time off from my job to get some further education in the UK. Then, I intend to continue with my current job. Id like to continue being a journalist for the next several years, but eventually Id like to become the editor of the sports section obviously after the current editor has left or
10、retired! Visitors to your hometown Two things that certainly need to be improved are the level of cleanliness and the level of pollution. A lot of tourists complain about these things and most residents would probably agree with them. It is not a good advertisement for our city or indeed our country
11、. I think that almost all foreign visitors come by plane, because using any other form of transport would take too long. People coming from other parts of China arrive by plane, train or bus. Those that come by plane are usually wealthier. As Im sure you know, there are plenty of sights in Beijing t
12、he Forbidden City, the Summer Palace and the Temple of Heaven to name but a few. As well as seeing the sights, visitors go shopping. Its common to see both Chinese and foreign visitors taking photographs. Definitely. My hometown is Beijing, which is a big tourist destination in China. Of course, man
13、y foreign visitors come to Beijing, but they are easily outnumbered by the number of Chinese people who visit from other parts of the country. The busiest times are during the national holidays and during the summer. Your daily routine Yes, I do particularly with regard to my work. It is important f
14、or me to be well-organised since journalists have deadlines to meet that cannot be changed. If a story isnt ready on time, it wont be published its as simple as that. we cant tell our readers that the China Daily will be published later today because a journalist didnt file his story on time! In my
15、personal life, Im more flexible. 1 have a rough idea of what Im going to do each day, but I usually dont stick to it rigidly. I think its pretty much the same as that of any other working person. I get up at six thirty and get ready to go to work. I leave home at about quarter to eight and get into
16、the office at just after eight thirty. I have lunch just before midday and finish work at between five and six, depending on how much work I have and how quickly I get through it. In the evenings, I might go out with friends or colleagues or I might have a quiet evening at home. First, I see which w
17、ork has to be done most urgently. Second, I consider how long it will probably take to complete each assignment. Then I see if I have any appointments. Then, I put these things together and create a rough timetable in my mind. I tend to do this on a weekly basis rather than a daily one if possible.
18、If it were possible, Id start work a little earlier in the morning and finish a little earlier in the afternoon. 2 【正确答案】 Each year, the China Daily awards a prize to its best journalist. The next award will be made next month and I would like to win it, although I think that my chances are not too
19、high. To win, the journalist must demonstrate that he or she has constantly produced articles of a high quality over the preceding year. This means that the person who has written the best single article over the course of the year is not necessarily the person who will win. The articles should not
20、only be well written, but also thought provoking and well received by readers. I would like to succeed in doing this because it would be an indication that I have been accepted as one of the best journalists at the newspaper and it would certainly improve my career prospects. As I said, I dont think
21、 that I will achieve this, at least not this year, but I can always hope! I think a more realistic hope is to win the prize for the best sports journalist. 3 【正确答案】 Id say thats pretty simple. In China, success is measured almost entirely by how much money and power you have. Its very important to h
22、ave both. I know some people who have one but not the other and they are not regarded as successful. For example, I know a government official who is very good at his job, but he is not respected or regarded as successful because he is not very rich. I think this is a great injustice. Well, to be ri
23、ch and powerful. A minority of people have other aims to be good people, to help others and to be of use to society but most people . they have more selfish aims. I cant really blame the more selfish people too much they want to make sure, for example, that their children have the best possible star
24、t in life and they want to live comfortably. I think its natural for people to want those things. It only makes me angry when they put those desires too far ahead of the desire to be good citizens. Mainly, people try to achieve these goals through being the best at work. They try to negotiate the bi
25、ggest contracts, achieve the highest sales figures or find ways of improving efficiency. However, as in all societies, there are people who try to get what they want through less honourable means. As a journalist, I believe that it is one of my responsibilities to expose such people. To be honest, n
26、ot really. Although there are many people trying to achieve these goals, the amount of competition is not very high because a lot of people are not talented enough to reach high levels of achievement. Its not necessarily their fault. They are not provided with quality education. Thats one reason why
27、 I want to go abroad to study for a while. By going abroad, I hope to learn things that my competitors do not know, giving me an advantage. Many Chinese people would answer that the most ambitious people are the ones who are most likely to succeed. I disagree. Having ambition is part of it, but I th
28、ink that the ones who are most likely to succeed are the ones who are able to think creatively rather than just following everyone else. If you simply follow someone else, it stands to reason that you will always be behind. Successful people are also prepared to take risks and expend time and money on their projects.
