{常见考题} Where would you prefer to watch films, at home or in the
cinema?
参考答案:I would prefer to watch films in the cinema because it
offers me amazing audio and visual enjoyment as well as fabulous
special effects. The IMAX is awesome! You know, I am passionate about
fantasy movies like Harry Potter and The Lord of the Ring, so stunning
special effects are very crucial. They are something that watching
films at home can never hold a candle to.
{常见考题} Do you prefer to watch films alone or with someone else?
参考答案:It depends on what I am watching. If I am watching some
romantic comedies, I would definitely ask some of my buddies to join
me. It’s a lot more fun when you watch a movie with friends. You can
laugh together or be surprised at the same time. During the movie, you
can observe other people’s reactions too, and it adds to the
atmosphere. But if I am watching horror ones, I would like to watch it
by myself. Since they are always so intense, I don’t like to be
distracted.
{常见考题} How often do you watch films?
参考答案:Generally speaking, I usually watch film once a week. But it
depends. It depends on whether there is any Hollywood blockbuster
released or not. I can never resist the temptation from those big
hits. But if there is nothing sensational, I would definitely stay at
home, watching DVDs. I don’t have too much money to burn on those
normal films. For a student as me, it can easily cause budget tension
by frequently watching films in cinema.
{魔鬼考题} How do you feel about those American films?
参考答案:Hollywood films have occupied the whole world film market
since 1970s. They are characterized by “internationally renowned film
directors, intriguing plots, fabulous special effects and dazzling
stars”. The fact has proved that most of Hollywood films are really
good, but different people have their own tastes for films. People do
not admire those Hollywood films as blindly as usual, and they have
found out that Hollywood would not be the standard of films. This
would naturally push forward film development in other countries.
{魔鬼考题} What do you think are the qualities of a good film?
参考答案:Films can enable people to experience different lives, so
every film should have its own characteristics. If directors can make
their films interesting, artistic, and cater to audience’s tastes,
they can win popularity for sure. So long as a particular film is
distinctive, it is bound to be eternal highlight.
{魔鬼考题} What do you think makes a director successful?
参考答案:Well, actually, almost all of the famous directors, despite
their different backgrounds, have something in common. It was not the
professional training in filmmaking that turned them into first-rate
directors, but rather, it was their obsession with films, or sometimes
an accidental occasion, that made them what they are today. To these
talents, the films they made are their individual interpretation of
the outside world. It was their persistence to individuality that made
them successful directors.

totally true and people from different countries can all appreciate
the same music. Music not only plays an important role in our daily
lives, but also brings people enlightenment and inspiration.
{常见考题} What kinds of music do you love listening to?
参考答案:Talking about my favorite music genre, I think it depends on
when and where I am listening. When I hang out in pubs or dancing
clubs, hip-hop or rap must be my call. However, when I am having a
lovely bubble bath or having a candlelight dinner, I will definitely
choose light music. I also love the time when I am lying in my fluffy
bed, listening to the amazing jazz while reading some magazines.
{常见考题} Do you prefer to listen to recordings or live performances?
参考答案:I am passionate about live music. I most love the time when
I enjoy live performances, singing loudly with my favorite singer,
screaming and dancing crazily while being offered the most wonderful
audio and visual enjoyment. It is so exciting, especially after the
song, when the artist talks to the audience, and everyone cheers and
claps. The atmosphere is overwhelmingly amazing!
{魔鬼考题} Is music important for children?
参考答案:Yes, it is very important. Music is the universal language
of mankind. It provides a means of individual expression, relaxation

awaiting development. Therefore, every child has a chance to
experience the joy of creating his own music and exploring his innate
abilities, or discover the joy of this self-expression.
{魔鬼考题} Do you play any instrument?

forget all the daily troubles. Those classical melodies can also bring
me a peaceful mind to tolerate unfair things and a positive mind to
start a brand new day. Besides, playing a piece of classical
masterpiece can bring me a lot of confidence, and it must be great to
play some well-known songs in front of my friends and relatives.
{魔鬼考题} What kinds of music did you like when you were a child?

{魔鬼考题} Do you think children should learn to play a musical
instrument?

musical instrument, for example, a piano. First of all, learning how
to play a piano is a long-term process, that is to say, it is a nice
method to strengthen willpower. Moreover, learning it can make me
understand music better and cultivate my emotional intelligence. In
addition, I can perform a melody for my friends in a party. That’s
cool, isn’t it?
{魔鬼考题} Do you think music and art classes should be offered in
high school?
参考答案:I agree with that music and art classes should be offered in
high school,because there are many students who are interested in
this area and plan to choose either of them as their future career. In
addition, music and art would make the day more alive and interesting,
which in turn leads to more learning. It may serve as the major source
of joy and relax students during their endless scientific classes. I
also think music and art education can develop creativity and
imagination which will benefit students’ study and career.
