6、s where you live? Why/Why not? 1 Actually, yes there are. I live in the countryside with my family and all around us are farms. So Im constantly woken by a cock crow and regularly see farm animals like cows and chickens. 2 I would say not, because my house is in the city centre, you know, nearly the
7、 middle of the city. There are so many people and vehicles and it is very crowded, so there arent many animals or birds. 2.How often do you watch programmes or read articles about wild animals? Why? 1 Maybe once a week. Every Saturday evening at 7 oclock there is a documentary series about animals f
8、rom different areas of the world. Last week it was Africa, this week its China. Im really looking forward to that one. 2 To be honest, not very often, almost never. Actually, Im not particularly interested in wild animals. I think its a thing thats far from my life. Sometimes though, in my spare tim
9、e, I watch some programmes to know about their lives. 3.Have you ever been to a zoo or a wildlife park? Why/Why not? 1 Absolutely, yes. During my holidays, especially the summer one, my parents and I go to my local wildlife park. We can get close to some of the more exotic animals like Reindeer. Per
10、sonally, though, I really like the monkeys. Theyre just fun. 2 Yes, I have, but like I said just now, it does appeal to me all that much. I think that they are a good idea and that they help keep the different species safe but, a lot of the zoos are too small and I dont like the idea of large animal
11、s in a cage. 4. Would you like to have a job working with animals? Why/Why not? 1 Yes, for sure, Id love this kind of job. I just adore animals and would do anything to keep them safe. Therefore, a job like a Park ranger, I think, would suit me down to the ground. Working outdoors, would a multitude
12、 of natural beasts would be a little slice of heaven for me. 2 If you ask me, probably yes. I think its so cool to work with animals. If I work with them, I need to take care of them and train them. Its so suitable for me. Many people said that I was a kind and patient girl, and the necessary thing
13、is I love animals so much. 2 【正确答案】 1 The website I would like to describe is one that has helped me a lot with my IELTS studies. It is basically a repository of all things IELTS. I went to the official IELTS site but found this one to be better. As for how often I use it, I would have to say every
14、day. Most in the mornings when I get up, but also sometimes in the evenings before I go to bed. I have put it in my Favourites list so that I can access it easily and without having to type in the address all the time. All of my classmates use this site too, and quite often we end up chatting to eac
15、h other through the site rather than on WeChat. It has a lot of little videos that offer tips parts of the exam. For example, theres a 2-minute one that is about body language in the speaking exam, another one has a student, actually a very beautiful girl, giving example answers to the up-to-date sp
16、eaking questions. It also has a forum so that people can ask and answer questions on a peer-to-peer basis and feedback from all over the world. It also links in to things like WeChat and WeiBo. I actually take part in the YiZhiBo live stream on Thursday evenings sometimes. Im sure that if this site
17、didnt exist I would find it much more difficult to study effectively online. This site was recommended to me by my English teacher because he knew that it was good and mistake free. A lot of sites, he said, had little errors in grammar or maybe spelling that could make things difficult to learn, as
18、what Im learning is wrong. 2 This website I am going to describe to you is named Baidu, which is the biggest search engine in China. There are more than one billion people in China, and the users of Baidu have almost half that number. Because it is so convenient and easy to use, I can search for any
19、thing and everything which I want to know. As for how much I use it, well, I use it every day, sometimes many times. Its just so useful, it can become a dictionary: there are some words I dont understand: it can be a news library if I want to know the news of the day: it also can be a study aid, whe
20、n I meet some problems. For me, I just find that its faster and clearer than anything else. This website gives more information, like the meaning of words, the explanations of problems and the like. I think the most beneficial part is some data and examples of my major, International Business Manage
21、ment, have been very useful for me. Sometimes, I just felt tired and confused and I dont know how to keep on studying, so I would like to find some ways to relax and some ways to keep learning. I wouldnt like to think about this website not existing. I think if that happened it would be a nightmare,
22、 you know, the world would just stop spinning: everything would cease. So, if its alright with you Im really not going to think about that too much, its just too scary. I really darent think what would happen to my studies, a big tangled mess comes to mind, at the very least! 3 【正确答案】 l.Why do some
23、people find the internet addictive? l 1 It might sound a bit harsh, bit I just think that people like that are weak-willed and weak-minded. Anyone with an ounce of willpower would be able to find other things to do and other ways to spend their time, with their boyfriend perhaps. 2 Well, I think the
24、re are two reasons. The first thing, also the biggest reason, is that people cant control themselves if they go too far from Internet: they basically spend their life on it. Secondly, the development of Internet is so fast that people can do everything on it: they can play games, watch movies or rea
25、d fictions, and so on. 2. What would the world be like without the internet? 1 Actually, I think it would be a much better place. Family units would be tighter because they would spend more time together. Children would be smarter and more disciplined for exactly the same reason and although I reali
26、se that international communication would be severely limited, it would mean the terrorists wouldnt be able to communicate efficiently either. 2 To be honest, I havent thought about this kind of thing, but if you push me, I would like to say that would be a hugely terrible thing. Wed go back to the
27、dark ages: we wouldnt be able to search for information, send files and find fun online. We also would be able to talk and share our opinions with people around the world. It would be a real shame, and Id lose many of my international friends. 3. Do you think that the way people use the internet may
28、 change in the future? 1 I dont think so, no. Dont forget that the internet is not the same thing as the web. The structure of it, and particularly the backbone, will not change significantly other than maybe getting faster and maybe a bit bigger. 2 Absolutely yes! The way has to be changed. People
29、now use the Internet by smart-phone or computer now, and they must to connect via wifi or mobile data. These days it is relatively easy to use, but in the future, it would be even more convenient, such as planting the mobile data into the skin or brain, and after maybe 50 years, the air touch screen
30、 will have appeared. Those kinds of thing are amazing, so I am looking forward to seeing the development of the Internet. 4. What are the ways that social media can be used for positive purposes? 1 Oh, theres loads! I think that like the name suggests it can be used to connect people in different pl
31、aces, and even in different countries. My friend and I took a trip around the world last year and kept our families up-to-date with our movements and what we were doing through WeiBo. It was much easier than calling them each day and all of our friends could see us too. 2 I think that one of the mai
32、n ways that it can be used for good is the ability to connect with like-minded people, which can then potentially offer support in times of strife and a sense of belonging to those that feel lonely. Another thing is to be able to disseminate useful information, such as for a university course. My tu
33、tor quite often sends messages or files to us through WeChat and WeiBo. 5. Why do some individuals post highly negative comments about other people on social media? 1 I think for some they just want to cause international chaos and they find some kind of enjoyment from this. Another reason may be th
34、at they have some kind of psychological disorder, either that or just being sick and twisted. 2 I think, if I am being polite, that they are just attention seeking. They crave and need other people to know who they are and think that trolling people is clever. 6. Do you think that companies main for
35、m of advertising will be via social media in the future? 1 I would say no. Although companies will no doubt use things like WeChat and WeiBo in order to promote themselves, it will not be the principal way they do it. There are still far more televisions and radios out there than computers, which ma
36、kes it more sensible to continue with these mediums. Perhaps in the far future this may change, but certainly not in my lifetime. 2 Absolutely, yes. We all know that Apps like FaceBook, Twitter, WeChat have just exploded over the last few years. Newspapers are basically dead, along with most other print media. Social networking is definitely where its at, and in my opinion, companies would be stupid not to use it to its full potential.
