11、15 minutes) 1 【正确答案】 The area I live in is located in the suburbs of quite a big city, but its a very clean and safe neighborhood, which has lots of young families and old people. The thing that I find most enjoyable is that we have a garden and lots of parks and reserves nearby my house, so its qui
12、te an attractive area to live in for that reason. Well, I wouldnt say that it is particularly famous for anything special, but there is a really popular shopping centre just down the road, which people come to from all over the city. So thats what people who live in my city think of when they think
13、of my suburb. Ive been studying English only for a short time, for a couple of years, l started learning when I went abroad to Australia on an exchange programmed in my last year of high school. For me, its not so much that I like studying it but when I reach a point of fluency, I really enjoy the o
14、pportunities that speaking English opens up for me. Im taking the IELTS test because I would really love to go back to Australia to go to university in Melbourne, where I hope to study economics and accounting. The way I prefer to get around is by train or subway. I like it because you never have to
15、 wait very long for the next train, and you can read a book or whatever on the train without feeling sick. Plus you can also walk around while the train is moving, which I like. Yes, its the cheapest and most convenient way to travel around my city. Buses are hopeless and never run on time, so every
16、one takes the trains. The city is pretty much gridlocked during rush hour, every weekday morning and evening. Thats the main problem and I think as a result of that, more and more people are using public transport or traveling off peak if they can. To be honest, they dont really affect me at all, th
17、ank goodness. The subway station is close to my house, and the trains run on time and of course they are not affected by peak traffic or anything. The only thing is that they are quite crowded now. On a typical day, like a weekday, I get up at around 7.30 a.m., have a shower and grab breakfast on th
18、e way to university. Then its lectures all day until about 5 p.m., when I get the train home and help my dad cook dinner. After dinner I might chat with my friends or watch television, then I go to bed at around midnight. Im not really sure. Probably the late morning, because I think thats when my b
19、rain comes to life, just before lunch. I always get a lot done at this time of day. Possibly not. Maybe as i get older Ill learn to love the early mornings, like my mum, but somehow I dont think so! Its hard to say really. Well yes, I hate mornings. It doesnt seem to matter what time I wake up, I al
20、ways feel tired so I really cant stand early mornings. Theyre a terrible time of day because then you know you have to get up. Let me think. Yes, actually, my grandmother collects tea towels Im around the world. Every time someone goes on a holiday they have to bring her one back. Im not sure why, I
21、 think its just something she started when she was younger and now its a habit. Whenever her friends or family go away, they know they should bring back a tea towel for grandma so its quite easy really they just go into the nearest tourist souvenir shop and buy one for her, pack it in their luggage
22、and bring it home. Im not exactly sure, but I think she started when she and my grandfather went on a trip to Europe, and everything was so expensive that she brought us back tea towels as souvenirs because they were cheap and easy to bring home. I think she would have been about 45 or something at
23、that stage. For her, its a way to feel like shes been traveling to these places. And of course there is a sentimental value to each tea towel, and the story of how she came to get it. Yes, its mainly sentimental value I suppose. 2 【正确答案】 Well its hard to remember exactly, but I do recall one time wh
24、en I suppose I was really quite naughty and disobedient. I was probably about nine or ten, I think, and because we lived a short distance from school, about twenty minutes walk, my friend and ! used to walk to school together every morning. On this morning at school we were scheduled to have a talk
25、by the local police officer about road safety, including crossing roads, riding bikes and wearing helmets while on our bikes. It was all very serious and the policeman arrived in his blue uniform and to be honest I think we were all a bit in awe of him really. This was the last class of the day and
26、I think he told us some horror stories about traffic accidents to try and scare us into being very careful on the roads. Well, after that, the bell rang and school was finished for the day, and another friend of mine had brought her bike to school and asked me if I wanted to double home with her. No
27、w, our school was on top of a very steep long road, and for some reason, despite having had the safety lecture just beforehand, we decided it would be a lot of fun if she rode the bike and I doubled on the back, sitting just above the back tire with my legs tucked in on top of the chain. Neither of
28、us had bike helmets. Why we thought this was a good thing to do I have no idea! So off we went zooming down the steep hill of a one-way street where it was great, lots of fun, until towards the end she hit a stone and of course I fell off the bike as it wobbled. The whole side of one leg was grazed
29、and bleeding and I was bruised as well not to mention very embarrassed, as there were lots of my classmates who had seen my tumble. But that was nothing compared to facing up to school the next day, when the headmistress put an announcement over the PA system that two very stupid girls had been very
30、 naughty, especially after the kind policeman had taken the time to try to tell us about road safety. I was absolutely mortified and embarrassed, as everybody knew who it was of course, and I think my friend was banned from tiding to school for the rest of the year. As for the impact the accident ha
31、d on me, I guess after a while, once the embarrassment had worn off, I was actually quite proud of our rebellion but perhaps a little more cautious on the back of bikes! No, not as a child, anyway! No, not any more than other children, I suppose. 3 【正确答案】 Well yes, I completely agree that any type o
32、f violence should not be used as a punishment. There are much better ways to discipline children and I think that violence sends the wrong message to them, even if it is only a light smack. I think it has been shown that in countries with legislation which prevents the use of smacking as a form of d
33、iscipline, there have been lower overall rates of child abuse. So that tells us something, doesnt it? I think there are many reasons for peoples struggle to discipline their children but mainly I guess it is related to a lack of consistency and perhaps a lack of awareness on the part of parents as t
34、o what to do or how to go about disciplining their children. However nowadays there are lots of television shows which focus on good parenting, and they all seem to talk about the importance of good boundaries and consistent consequences for bad behavior. Maybe some parents are just too easily manip
35、ulated by their children! I think a very strict upbringing can have a few drawbacks. For instance, if you never get the chance to make your own mistakes and learn from them, then I think its more likely that you might have a mid-life crisis or a period later in life where you feel the need to rebel
36、and break the rules, so to speak. Also, I think that if a strict upbringing prevents you from enjoying things in life that your peers are enjoying, then you are left with a feeling of resentment and a sense of missing out. There are all sorts of reasons! I suppose one of the main ones is that they m
37、isbehave in order to get attention, even though the attention might be negative, that is in the form of a punishment or scolding. Or they might play up in order to impress their friends, or they might just be hungry or bored, I guessed. Another reason that they might misbehave is if they dont know t
38、he rules, or these havent been consistently applied, so they dont know where they stand. Those are just a few reasons why children might be naughty. In my view, its better to punish bad behavior in some way, but it depends on what the bad behavior is. For instance, if its a temper tantrum then I thi
39、nk its probably a better idea to ignore it, because then the children dont receive any attention (good or bad) from their behavior, so will hopefully be less likely to repeat it. On the other hand, I think there are some instances that need punishment, or maybe not punishment, but information about
40、what is acceptable and whats not, depending on the childs age and ability to absorb that information. I think that its probably about the same. I mean, I know you hear older generations complaining about todays younger generation and how badly they behave but really I think its just that we are more
41、 aware of it nowadays and there are also more pressures and strains on young people today, so its all relative. Although I would say that there has been a move away from extended family life in some countries, which has maybe had an effect on the way children are raised, and accordingly, their behavior.
