考博复试英语口语的九个常问问题



Question 1
：
Tell us more about yourself.


Do say:


I
’
ve
always
been
interested
in
discovering
how
things
work,
but
my
time
as
an
undergraduate opened my eyes to the excitement and wider benefit of science. I had the
chance to do some original research on my Masters and that
’
s inspired me to take up the
challenge of a PhD. I
’
m also a keen hiker and amateur naturalist, so I
’
d love to combine my
studies here with the chance to visit the local area.


Don't say:


I
was
born
in
a
small
countryside
city
of
Jiangsu
Province.
My
first
dog
was
called
Wangcai. At school my best friend was Liming. I like reading and listening to music in my
spare time. My favourite colour is blue.


Question 2
：
What made you choose to do a PhD?


Do say:


I
’
ve enjoyed my academic work so far, but I really feel I
’
ve got more to offer as an
independent
researcher.
I
’
m
also
passionate
about
this
subject
and
don
’
t
feel
enough
attention has been paid to the questions I
’
m looking to address.


Don't say:


I can
’
t think of anything to do with my Masters, but my current tutor says I
’
m clever
enough for a PhD.


Question 3
：
What do you plan to do after you complete your PhD?


Do say:


I feel my PhD project can open up new lines of inquiry for this field and want to use it
as
the
foundation
for
a
fruitful
research
career.
But,
I
’
m
also
interested
in
the
wider
development opportunities included in this doctoral programme. I want to be an academic,
but I
’
m happy to keep other options open.


Don't say:


I expect someone will give me a job doing more research. That
’
s what PhDs do, right?


Question 4
：
What are your strengths and weaknesses?


Do say:


I feel that I
’
m a good written communicator. My existing academic and professional
work demonstrates an ability to put forward ideas clearly and concisely. I think this will help
me manage the weight of information my PhD research needs to cover and the challenge of
producing an effective thesis. But, I
’
m not always as organised as I
’
d like to be. I want to
address this as part of my postgraduate training and hope to take advantage of classes and
development opportunities early in my doctorate.


Don't say:


My greatest strength is that I have no weaknesses! And my only weakness is that I have
no strengths. Hang on...


Question 5
：
Are there any training needs you can identify ahead of your PhD?


Do say:


I
’
m really interested in communicating my research to a wider audience, but don
’
t
know how best to go about doing this. I think the training module on public engagement
will be a big help to me, both academically and more generally.


Don't say:


I
’
m really bad at interviews. Do you have a class for that?


Question 6
：
What makes you the right candidate for this PhD?


Do say:
