口语实力提高机经小册子【2011.12.2NA】

Task 1: Describe an activity you enjoy doing in your school recently. Explain why you

enjoy doing this activity in your school. Include specific reasons and details to support

your response.

I am so into basketball recently.

For one, there is a brand new basketball gym on campus. It feels good to play on the

shining floor because I've never played on it. After the game, I don't have to wash my

hands because the floor is clean.

For another, there is basketball tournament recently. Students are really excited about it

because it's been a while since the last basketball game on campus. I am the starting

forward of my class team, averaging 10 points and 10 boards (rebounds) per game. It will

be great if I lead the team to win the championship.

Those are the reasons why I enjoy playing basketball recently.

Task 2: Do you agree or disagree with the following statement? A person needs talent to be

an artist. Use specific reasons and examples to support your answer.

I agree.

For one, a person needs physical talent to be an artist. For example, I always wanted to be

a dancer in the future when I was still a little boy. As I grew older, I lost my flexibility. So

my teacher made me realize that I had to quit my dream because I was not talented

enough.

For another, a person needs a talented mind to be an artist. For example, Mozart could

complete a piano composition at the first touch of the key at the age of five.

“You could put to the students that while talent is important, sometimes good

inspirational teaching can make a person into a good performer. For example, a person

who likes playing the piano but who is not all that talented can be made into a passable

pianist by good teaching and enthusiasm and endeavor on the part of the student. Often

(and I have seen this) such people become very good at playing (i.e. they are very good

technically) but the music lacks 'soul' - and that's what having talent will give their

performance, whether it's music, dance, painting or anything else.”
