Studies:


1. Are you working or studying?


I am currently a college student. I am studying computer science in Tsinghua
University, one of the top universities in China.

Notes:
好的回答有一定延 伸。比如说在回答完还在学习的内容后，可以增加在哪里学习以
及学习什么的内容。


I am working for IBM as an admin
istrative staff. I’ve been doing this job for
many years and I still like doing it.

2. Tell me something about the
school or university you attend.


Sure.
I’m
always
excited
to
talk
about
my
university,
Tsinghua
University.
Established in the early 1900’s
by the Qing Dynasty, it has now become one of
the top ranking universities in China and well-renowned in the world. Located in
the northwest
of
Beijing
in
Qinghuayuan
,once
a
royal
garden,
it
enjoys
a
marvelous natural environment. The campus is really big. It is home to more
than ten thousand undergraduate and graduate students. In terms of learning
and research, Tsinghua university provides the most qualified faculty anywhere
in China, and the best library and research facilities. The last thing I would like
to mention of Tsinghua is that it has a long tradition of sending students to study
overseas.
Not
only
that
it
was
first
established
as
a
preparatory
school
for
students to study in the US, but it also sends over a thousand students each
year to study abroad, US, Australia and other countries. Thank you.

可以谈大学的地理位置，历史，教学和学术成就，校园外貌以及其他的任何方面都可以谈。
抓住什么就 谈什么，注意连贯性的掌握。


Well,
of
course.
I
study
in
XXX
University.
It
is
one
of
the
largest
and
best
universities in central China. It has a very big and nice campus. Though the
university has been established for a long time, many of its old buildings are
now replaced by new and modern ones. With lawns and trees everywhere, the
environment of the campus is really good, making it a good college experience
for everyone who studies here.

Tell me something about your primary school.


1

The name of the school is XXX Primary School. It is not far from where I where
I used to live. It is a rather small one with only two buildings, the main teaching
building and an office building. There is also a playground behind the buildings
with several gym bars and a sand pit. I guess that’s all I can remember now.
Thanks.

Well, I don’t remember much but just a few things about my primary school.
First it is rather a small one with a size of 20 students in each class. And there
were only three classes on each grade at that time. Then the playground behind
the main building is also very small. I faintly remember that there were a few
things students could play with: a swing, a sand dune, and a few other things.
I used to stay at school to play there until my parents come to take me home.
That is pretty much of what I remember
.

Sure. It is one of the best primary schools in my hometown. To get into this
school, one must meet certain qualifications and pass an entry test. But it is
certainly worth fighting for to get into this school, because the teachers there
are very experienced and patient, and almost every graduate from this school
can get into the top schools at higher levels.

没有必要面面俱到，重点是谈
“somet hing”
，而不是
“everything”
。所以抓住感兴趣的或
者印象 深刻的一方面展开论述就可以了。


3. What is your major?


I major in Business Administration. And I find business is a fascinating world to
explore.
I
am
studying
hard
and
hopefully
one
day
I’ll
become
a
successful
businessman.

Notes:
大学中的专业很多。首先考生必须明确自己专业的准确英文翻译。如果考生不知道
自己专业的准确英文 翻译，可以讲一个较大的领域，比如
“
小麦植株培育
”
可以说是
“b otany”
、
“industrial farming”
，或者可以讲自己在某一个系别，现在还没有分专业。


4. Do you like your major and
why?


Yes, of course. I like my major primarily because I am very much into computer
science.
Since
young
I’ve
always
been
fascinated
by
the
stories
of
future
technology, robots and super- computers. Secondly, IT is a huge market with
wide
profit
margins.
It
has
created
a
new
generation
of
billionaires.
It
is
promising major that is bound to bring me a good career in the future. That is

precisely why I like my major
.

Not really. Actually I didn’t choose this major for myself. My parents chose it for
me. In addition, I find all the subjects I have to study for this major very boring.
I don
’t think I can learn much from them.


Notes:
如果喜欢，不要简单的说
“I just like it”
， 要有充分的理由，展现出自己理性的一面
和逻辑的思维表达。比较常见的理由有三：
1
、有兴趣
2
、相对容易学习和毕业
3
、有较好
的职业前景


5.
What
courses/subjects
do
you study?


There is a wide range of courses I study. Some are compulsory while others are
optional.
The
two
major
compulsory
courses
are
College
English,
including
intensive reading, extensive reading, speaking etc., and College Math, including
calculus, probability and statistics and so on. In addition, I also have chosen to
study
Art
History
and
Psychology,
which
can
all
enrich
my
understanding
of
human mind itself and the great works of human mind.

Notes:
高中考生可以按照自己文理科分科回答，
大学 的课程很多，
可以大致将有选修和必
修，
然后简单提及一两个课程即可。
例如 必修课有：
English, Calculus, Computer Basics
；

选修课有：
Art History, World Religions, Psychology
。


6.
What
is
your
course/subject?

favorite

My favorite course/subject is XXX, because, number one, it is very interesting.
Number two, it is not very difficult to study. Number three, it is also very useful.

类似于专业，喜爱单一的课程也可能因为该课程有趣，易学以及有用。


What is the most useful subject/course?

I think English is most useful subject. Because today communication plays such
an
impor
tant
role
is
people’s
lives,
especially
when
the
world
is
becoming
a
global village, where English is the primary spoken language. And thus good
training
in
spoken
English
gives
a
person
a
competitive
edge
and
more
opportunities than those who can’t speak
it.


3

It is really a hard question. Though I don’t think all subjects are useful, yet I do
think most of them can be useful in different ways and in different times of life.
Nonetheless,
I
think
communication
skills
are
essential
for
one’s
social
and
academic
life;
since
English
has
become
the
lingua
franca
in
global
communication, I would say English, as far as I’m concerned, is the most useful
subject.

和其他的题目相同，
在直接回答完最有用的科目之后，
一定要附加原因，< br>这样的回答才能满
足雅思考官的要求。这也是一个一般性原则。


7. What would you like to do in
the future?


I would like to see myself becoming a great businessman, using my brain to
make money. I would always keep myself motivated to learn new things, to
improve in all aspects of my business management. This may take me years to
achieve. But I’ll never give
up, for without vision people perish.

考生应该实话实说，
不要过于夸张，
譬如世界领袖什么之类的，
免得考官觉得该考生 有狂人
或者独裁者的特质。
如果未曾认真打算过，
也可以坦率地告诉考官，
毕 竟考官考察的是英文
程度，而不是使馆的签证人员。


I haven’t fully planned it out yet. But I guess I would like to be an accountant
who works in an ordinary accounting firm, for I don’t like too many ups and
downs. I just would like to lead a simple and ordinary life.

8. What are the characteristics
of schools in China?


Most Chinese schools, whether at primary, secondary or college level, are all
very big in terms of student population, which I think is due to the large general
population in China. In addition, most of the schools are public schools, though
we
have
seen
lots
of
private
schools
even
colleges
springing
up
in
recent
years.


考生总结一两点 即可，例如：中国学校学生多，班级规模大，
虽然有大量的私立学校在近几
年涌现出来，但是大 多数的还是公立学校。

9.
What
kinds
of
majors
are
available in China?


There are two main categories of majors: arts major and science major
. Under
the
category
of
arts,
there
are
business,
law,
language
and
literature
for
example.
And
under
science,
there
are
math,
psychology,
material
science,
computer science and many others.

中国大学专业一般以文理分科，文科叫
arts major
，理科叫
science major
，除此以外还
有工科（engineering
）例如：
computer
engineering
，
electronic
engineering
，
mechanic engineering and design
等等。


10.
What
do
Chinese
people
think about teachers?


Teachers are generally respected in China. And there is even a saying in proof of
this, “a teacher of one day is a father of a lifetime.”


Teaching
is
a
very
respectable
profession
in
China.
Because
the
traditional
Chinese culture puts an enormous amount of emphasis on education, teachers
are even dubbed a name
“the engineer of human soul”.


中华民族是向来尊师重教的 民族，对教师的尊敬有着悠久的传统，古语有言：
“
一日为师，
终生为父。
”
这便是很好的例证。考生可以通过教育对人成长的作用和父母亲望子成龙的期
望，映射出中国对 教师的尊敬。


11. Is teaching a popular job in
China? Why or why not?


Well, I believe it is a popular job in China. First and foremost, teaching is a highly
respectable prof
ession in China. There is even an old saying in proof of this, “a
teacher of one day is a father of a lifetime.” Furthermore, teachers are also very
well rewarded in many ways, both economically and spiritually.

当教师通常是一份稳定的 工作，
也是很多人的选择。
同时社会对教师在经济和各方面的回报
也是不菲的。

Question:
12. What changes took place in
education in your country over
the past decade?
Answer:
Well, everything is changing, so is education.
The most important change that took place over the past decade is this.
1. increased admission
It seems to me that more and more people are now able to go to college while
in the past the competition was much stronger.
College admission is opening up, and this is a direct result of the state policy.
The consequence is that many students who have not reached the level of
university education are also allowed to sit in the college classroom, therefore
the quality of education has been declining.
2.
Master’s
degree / overseas education
It is because this problem that an increasing number of people are pursuing
mor
e education after college graduation. These options include master’s
program and possibly overseas education, just like what I’m doing right now.
We’re fed up with the boring routine life in college, and we’re fighting for a
better future for ourselves.
3. increased tuition
Unfortunately, not every child would have the opportunity to continue their
education after college. Why?
Simply because going to school is so costly.
The tuition has been almost tripled over the past decade and this presented
serious financial pressure that some families cannot handle. So some of my
classmates have to drop out just because their families ran short of money.
Human tragedy! I’m lucky. My mom and dad are making enough money, so I
