Would you say you are happy?
Analysis: 常考问题之一。遇到此类抽象问题，首先自己先对happiness进行定义 Sample Answer: Yes. All my families are happy and they are not in trouble. There is neither hardship nor suffering I can't get over. Also, I have life goals and I am working on it right now. What do you think makes people feel happy? Analysis: 一般来说，这个问题最重要的是将people分类进行回答 Sample Answer: Well, people definitely feel happy due to all various reasons. Some people feel happy when they get promoted at work. Others gain happiness when they watch a good film. There are even people who are happy simply because of a beautiful sunset or the twittering of birds. As long as you can find a way to be happy, it doesn't really matter what the reason is. What type of noise do you come across in your daily life? Analysis: 此类题注意顺序连接词的使用，一般2-3个例子 Sample Answer: Loud music on the street and the noise made by cars, trams and phone calls are all noise I can't stand. Also, people talking constantly drive me nuts. I think the world is getting noisier, I know it is harder to find a quiet place anymore. What season do you think is most suitable for work and study? Analysis: 注意该季节condition的描述 Sample Answer: It must be the autumn. That is a joyful season with beautiful sceneries. Autumn weather is unpredictable and beautiful. It is the transition from hot to cold weather. Trees bare their leaves, birds migrate south and the nights are cool. Can you describe the place where you live? Analysis: 地点题的描述注意由小到大的原则 Sample Answer: Well, the room I live in is really nice, it’s bright and spacious. What really satisfies me is that it’s really near where I work. And one more thing which I’d have to mention about is it cost much less than I thought. |
