Some teachers have an informal style and treat their students like friends. Other teachers have a more formal style and keep a professional distance from students. Which teaching style do you think is better for learning?

题目解析：

有些老师有着非正式的教学风格，把学生当朋友对待。其他老师的风格比较正式，与学生保持专业距离。你认为哪种教学方式对学习更好？该题为教育类话题，既可以从具体的教学环节来讨论，例如参与课堂讨论，问问题等，也可以从整体上营造了怎样的课堂氛围来回答。

范文：

I think informal style is better for learning. First, under this kind of teaching style, students are not afraid of teachers, which means they are willing to share thoughts with teachers. That not only encourages students to ask teachers for help when facing difficult questions, students will also feel free to participate in class discussions. Second, by treating their students like friends, teachers help foster an active and relaxing atmosphere in academic lectures. This will boost students' interests and enable them to learn better.

It’s going to be more convenient since you can study anywhere and anytime you want, like the café, and also make your own schedule.

Some people prefer to shop regularly at the store that is close and convenient to them, even though the price might be expensive, others prefer to go for longer distance for lower prices, which do you prefer and why?

题目解析：

有些人喜欢经常在离他们近和方便的商店购物，即使价格可能很贵，其他人喜欢去更远的距离更低的价格，你更喜欢哪一个？该题可以转化成我们熟悉的省时间、省钱的思路上去回答。如果选择前者，对应的是省时间；选择后者，对应的是省钱。

范文：

I prefer to go for longer distance for lower prices because it helps me save money. By saving money on my groceries and daily necessities, I can use the saved money to buy bigger-ticket items, like houses or apartments. Then I will have a shelter forever, without worrying about renting places to live for the rest of my life. In this way, I will be able to live on my own instead of relying on my parents, which gives me a sense of achievement. On the other hand, buying expensive goods at the store will make it really hard for me to achieve my goal. Besides, I can drive, so it’s not a hassle traveling far distance.

Some people believe that it's parent's responsibility to teach kids manners, others believe that it's the school's responsibility, which do you agree and why.

题目解析：

有些人认为教育孩子礼貌是父母的责任，有些人认为这是学校的责任，你同意吗?为什么？该题选择回答同意前者的话，可以将题目很自然地转换为亲朋好友类独立题的答题思路，即家人帮助、教导我们。

范文：

I agree that it's parent's responsibility to teach kids manners. First, parents are children's first teachers. Take my parents as examples, they've taught me a lot of manners since I was a young kid, like don't make a noise while chewing food, offer seats to the elderly people and greet people properly. My parents set up good examples for me to follow, which gradually helps me learn to behave myself. On the other hand, the teachers at school put more focus on course-related materials. Besides, there are many students in one class. It's easy for teachers to tell the whole class what good manners and etiquette are, but making sure each kid actually practices those good manners is going to be challenging. Therefore, it’s still parent’s responsibility at the end of the day.

When watching movies and television shows with friends and family, some people prefer that everyone remain quiet until the end. Other people enjoy talking and sharing opinions during the movies and shows. Which do you prefer? Explain why.

题目解析：

看电视和电影的时候你是喜欢和家人朋友边看边聊，还是安静地看？本题如果选择边看边聊，针对剧情和节目内容和家人朋友们交换意见，分享感受，像实时弹幕一样发表自己的观点，不仅更有意思，还可以增加交流，加强感情。如果看电视电影的时候大家都一言不发，这样气氛没有那么令人放松。但是相反地我们可以说，有些电影是需要沉浸式的体验，和家人朋友聊天会分散我们的注意力，不能很好的感受演员的情绪，而且如果情节复杂，一旦没有集中注意力，就会漏掉很多重要细节。另外，看电影时说话也会影响到在同一个影院里观影的其他人，不是很礼貌的行为。

范文A：

Well I think we should remain quiet while watching tv with our friends and family. And I feel this way for two reasons, first of all, sharing opinions or having small talks with them will get me easily distracted from the story, and if I miss out some important details, I can’t really enjoy the movie or the show. For example, I love to watch detective movies, because I really enjoy the process of, you know, finding clues and solving mysteries on my own, so I usually ask my friends to keep quiet when they’re watching with me, and when we’re done watching, we will then discuss passionately about what we think of the movie or the show. Also, it’s distracting to other audiences in the theater. Same thing, if I have to listen to someone talking, I wouldn’t be able to pay attention to the ongoing movie, and wouldn’t have much fun.

范文B：

Well, I’d love to talk with others while watching tv or movies. That’s why I love watching movies with my best friends as we share similar taste. I mean, that’s the whole point. Why don’t we just watch them alone if we don’t talk? Having a discussion about the plot and sharing our feelings towards the show will definitely make you feel more relaxed and a lot of fun. Perhaps when someone isn’t understanding the plot, It’s ok to have a bit of chit-chat to keep everyone up to speed.  By saying like I missed the lines! Can you get me up to speed about the content? Your friends help explained it a bit. On the other hand, it’s so boring to just sit and stare at the screen with no response at all. Imagine that if the movie is a total disaster, having someone to talk and roast about it will save you from boredom instead of distract you.

Do you agree or disagree with the following statement? To truly know about a country, it is necessary to learn a major language of this country? Use specific reasons and examples to support your position.

题目解析：

要想真正了解一个国家，是否有必要学习这个国家的语言？同意的话可以说。很多时候媒体中报道的关于别国的信息是有偏见的，当地电视节目里展现出来的当地生活也并不全面，所以要真正了解一个国家的文化和生活，必须和当地人深入交流，这样的话学习这个国家的语言就很重要。不同意的话，就可以回答其实在资源无比发达的现代社会，有更好更高效的方法去了解一个国家，比如读书，看纪录片或者电视剧去了解这个国家的文化历史，当地人的生活和思考方式。而且，学习语言是一件非常耗时耗力的事情。

范文A：

Well, to me, language is a bonus point but not a must. Learning a new language is a challenging and time-consuming task, especially for those who don’t have immersive environment, take English learning as an example, they have to spend a lotta time and effort memorizing vocabulary, learning grammar rules which are wholly different from those of your mother tongue; it’s too big of a time commitment. There’s no need to do that. Instead, there are a lot other ways to know a country, we can watch documentaries, and TV series to learn about their ways of thinking and doing things. What’s more, in this modern society, technology so advanced, you can even use google translator to help you communicate with the locals while traveling, instead of knowing their language by yourself.

范文B：

Personally, I think it is necessary to learn a major language of a country in order to truly know about this country. First of all, knowing a country in other languages, for example, u read Chinese news stories from American news coverage, for sure there are things not comprehensive and biased, unobjective or just not completely equivelant. If you want to penetrate and understand profoundly into a society, you must know how to speak their language yourself. This way/If you are fluent in someone else’s native language, you will find it easier traveling to or even living in this country, talking to the locals, experiencing local lifestyle, thus getting to know about their history and culture, traditions, rituals and customs.

Imagine that you need to find housing next semester and have found two possible apartments. The first apartment is within walking distance to campus, but the rent is a little expensive. The second apartment is farther away from campus. but the rent is more affordable. Which apartment do you think is better? Explain why.

题目解析：

选公寓，一个贵点近点，另一个远些但是便宜，你选哪一个？这也是我们的老高频题了，选近的直接套用省钱省时间的段子，选远的省钱也可以用，培养个早起习惯也无妨。

范文A:

I would choose the more affordable one because obviously it helps reduce financial burdens for me and my family. I mean, I'm a student who doesn’t have a regular job and any reliable source of income, so I’m usually on a tight budget, while at the same time I need to spend money on a lotta things, like paying tuition, covering my living expenses, you know things like room and board, utility and stuff like that. So saving up some money should be a top priority to me. Besides, if I can walk to school within 5 min, it really saves a lot of time, which therefore could be spent on more important things, either taking classes, preparing for upcoming exams or working on assignments, handling tons of paperwork.

范文B:

I would choose the one within walking distance.
