Environment

① Tell me something about the living environment in your hometown.
② What do you think are the reasons/solutions for the pollution problems?
③ Why is it important to protect the environment?
④ What change do you foresee in the next 50 years？
• Reasons
1. Lack of environment protection awareness
2. Recycle system
3. Large cities/population; industrial areas
• Solutions
1. Through the legislation； enhance measures à reduce the emission (discharge levels）
2. Public transportation system
3. Increase energy efficiency： encourage green technology
4. General education: advertisement to the general public

• Tell me about the different types of transportation in your city.
• Of course， you know there’s quite a mixed variety of public transportation in my city. Though I think the most commonly-used would be buses. And the explanation for this could be that they are so cheap and reliable. In fact the average bus fare in my city is about 2 yuan for a single journey。
• Problems：
• 1. Traffic jam/traffic congestion
• 2。 Car accidents
• 3。 Traffic signals
• 4。 Environmental impact and energy consumption
•

I use it not just to go back and forth to work but also to go shopping。 I have a monthly pass and so I can travel freely on one without having to pay each time I go on. I also use a bus when I want to go traveling from one place to another for distances that do not last fur more than a day。 I do have a bicycle, but I use that only for very” short distance” things， like getting some vegetables at the local grocery store or things like that.
I prefer taking the bus。 I always feel safe taking a bus because it is a big vehicle and it moves more slowly than a taxi. It is quite convenient, since there are enough lines。 Even though it is not as convenient as a car it allows you to work while you are traveling. It is relatively cheap compared to a car and a subway, and it can be comfortable, although it can be a bit crowded, and it's not so nice if you have to stand for long distances。 I like buses most because I can talk with people and make more friends。 Riding a bus also has its disadvantages, like sometimes it can be a bit crowded, and you do have to watch for pickpockets。 But overall it's the best option I have。 Besides, if everyone were to drive a car， then the environment would be severely polluted。

Education

① What changes took place in education in your country over the past decade?
② What are the problems of the education system in China? （solution)
③ Do you think school is the only way for people to get educated？
④ What will the schools be like in the future？
⑤ What is education？

Education is the most powerful weapon which you can use to change the world .An educated person is respected everywhere.Education is the foundation of a civilisation。
Obviously Chinese schools and universities are undergoing a series of （a lot of） transformation. For example， the extended enrollments has lower the benchmark for students that want to study in university。 （easier）How ever， it also increased the competition between the graduate students in terms of finding jobs。
To me， the Chinese education system has (much) space for improvement。Most of the knowledge I learned in school was exam—oriented and I don’t find them practical in real life。 I suppose the Chinese education system is more exam—oriented compared with the education system in western countries. We have to learn a lot of knowledge by heart to deal with a series of exams， while in other countries， children will learn stuff that they could really use in the real life, for example how to do research, give a presentation， and so on

A place to visit.

l Alright, well I’ve been asked to talk about something beautiful and I’d like to choose the White Cloud Temple. It is located in Beijing and it's on the west side of town。 It’s not that far away from a subway station, but you would need to take a bus， because it’s a bit far to walk。 I go there probably two or more times a year. I really try to take a trip to find some time to rediscover myself。 During the Spring Festival people jam into it because they hold what I think is the best carnival during Spring Festival. We call them Miao Huis。 At that time the temple is very crowded， but most other times it's quite peaceful, and it’s a good place to get away from all the people.
I think the reason it’s so beautiful is because it is simple and it seems to blend in well with its environment. I love to go there during the winter after a big snowfall because it's at this time that it seems to be most mysterious。
I choose this as the most beautiful because， to me， beauty is simplicity and natural design， and it also means it fits the environment it is in. I prefer temples that seem powerful not because of their structures but because they are perfect for their simple beauty.

l Right, well, as my topic I chose a mountain that I like. This mountain is not famous， and it's located just north of Jinan. It is not the famous Taishan Mountain. In fact it's quite far away from that area The mountain is called Black Bird and it is not high. To get there you must drive off a small road on the way to Taian and head right. It goes quite some length, and the condition of the road is not very good。The mountain is simply a cliff that sticks out of a small range of hills。 Its shape is like a bird， and it seems to be like a lonely eagle looking over its small family. In the far background you can see Taishan Mountain, but, as I said before, it's quite far away. If you want you can try to climb the cliff。 You probably can， but be careful because the rocks are quite loose. I think I like it most because it seems so mysterious， as if it’s holding a secret。 I always feel very moved when I go there. I think it seems to have a kind of quiet power over the land that it overlooks.

Hobby
I love to play badminton especially in the summer time。 It is a game I really enjoy, so play it whenever I can get a willing partner. It is a lot like tennis， but I can play badminton anywhere。 I do not have to go to a tennis court to play and I can play in between classes without getting sweaty. Badminton is played with rackets that look a lot like tennis rackets, but they are much more delicate. You should have a net, which sits high above the ground, and a ball that is called a birdie。 The birdie has a small rubber half a ball on one end， and it fans out with feathers on the other end to help it to fly。 A badminton court has a net in the center that stretches from side to side. Each side of the net has a square that the team mates play in. It is ideal to play badminton with four people, but you can play one on one as well. You can also play without points or a net, but I do not think it is as much fun. It is a game that takes a lot of energy so you get plenty of exercise playing badminton. The main reason I like the game is that everyone, man or woman, has an equal chance to compete. There are so many sports that require height or strength to be good； it is refreshing to play one that I have an equal opportunity to win. Maybe that is why I get very competitive and energetic when I play. I love the game; it is fun and rewarding, and I feel alive when playing。

Jobs
A dream job I would like to have would be a professional shopper。 This job would involve me working for various companies as a free-lance shopper。 I would go to various places and then pretend that I was shopping for certain things. I would record what the staff said to me in a secret tape-recorder. I would then write up a report about the service I received and determine what things I was impressed with and didn't like so much. Then I would be paid very handsomely for the report.
I would like to be able to create my own hours for this job， and I would like to have all my transportation paid for, and I would like all the normal benefits to apply like health insurance and pensions.I think I would like this kind of job because， well .。. I love shopping. I mean， I can shop all day without getting tired, so I imagine that this job would be a piece of cake. Plus, I think this kind of job is useful because it lets the companies know either their service towards customers is good or not， and if they know what areas they need to improve then they can go out and make these improvements。 So I think the service I am doing for society is a good one and can lead to better service quality and perhaps increased salaries. Also， I have a feeling I could make big money with this job.

art or craft activity
Talking about an art activity that I remember be part of is the photography competitionin my high school。 Well, to be frank, my memory fails me and I cannot recall the exact date when I attended the craft activity but I am sure it must be in the high school.
　　The activity actually was kind a like a project， aiming to help students get familiar with photography and be more conscious about preserving traditional culture. Actually, the theme of the competition is “ Where is our tradition”，which means all the participants have to take a series of pictures of things related to our tradition or culture。
　　Some of my classmates who were interested in photography and me formed a team and we did the project together。 Some of my team members are really brilliant and professional in photography and some others are specialized in traditional stuff and history. After we registered for the competition, we were really excited and eager to do it well. So， naturally, we did a lot of preparation,the whole group was divided into 3 teams， Team 1 was responsible for searching information on the Internet and Team2 to design the framework and album， and I was in the Team 3， taking the pictures。 My team went to lots of places in my hometown and took lots of pictures, including paper cut， pottery, embroidery and even Chinese knot. We worked really hard for it after school because the time for us was quite limited, only 1 week I guess. For one or two days, we even burned mid-night oil together in my home。 But， when we finished the album,we achieved great sense of fulfillment. I mean we really do something by ourselves. More importantly, through this art activity we learnt more and about our tradition

I remember when I was in primary school, in our first art class， our teacher brought a pile of white masks to the classroom， and handed them out to each one of us。 We were all curious as to what she was about to do with them。 Most of us thought maybe she wanted us to do the mask dance or something. We had no clue until she took out the brushes and watercolors.

　　She said， now it’s time to use your imagination and create your own unique masks。 There are no rules, no limit, or so—called standards. You can do whatever you want to the blank mask. Everybody got so excited ‘cause we had never done anything like that before。 All the students started to paint with the stuff our teacher provided.

　　I’m a huge fan of painting, so I didn’t think there would be anyone who’s more elated than I was。 I used to love Spiderman at that time， so I decided to draw the face of him on the mask。 But the thing was， I couldn't do it without a picture, you know。 I just had a rough idea about what he looked like， so all I could do was draw it according to my memory. As you can imagine, I applied lots of red and blue watercolors。

countryside ＆ city
I think living in the countryside is far better than living in the city. There are numerous of reasons why living in countryside is the better than the city. The scenery， the streets the people and the paced are totally different compare to the city。 The first outstanding characteristic about the countryside is that it is beautiful and peaceful. The air is fresh and the surroundings green. This is because the countryside is free from pollution， be It air， land or noise pollution. There no such perfect peaceful view that you can see other than in the countryside. The trees surrounded the countryside help the people from inhaling the polluted air. The freshness smell of plant somehow helps the people of the countryside to have a healthy life.
Furthermore， people in the countryside are more conscious of keeping their surroundings clean and so there is little throwing of rubbish everywhere， only at designated places。This is unlike the cities where if the garbage trucks do not collect the rubbish disposed by household or restaurants, the city will be overflowing with rubbish！ This will attract the mosquitoes, fly， rats and wild dogs to pollute their surrounding that will cause them to have diseases like dengue and cholera。 Thirdly, heavy traffic and crowded streets increase the level of noise pollution。 There are also sound o f the machine used in manufacturing factories， loud radio in and out the mall。 These add to the noise of the city。 However， in the countryside, life is slow—paced. There is no need to rush around because there are not too many places to go。 Most places are close by and people can walk or cycle。 I really enjoy this.

Parachute Jump ＆ Hot air balloon
Around the world more and more people are taking part in dangerous sports and activities。 Of course, there have always been people who have looked for adventure—-- those who have climbed the highest mountains， traveled into unknown parts of the world or sailed in small boats across the greatest oceans. Now, however, there are people who look for an immediate excitement from a risky activity, which may only last a few minutes or even seconds.
I would consider bungee jumping to be a good example of such an activity. You jump from a high place （perhaps a bridge or a h
