Topic 1 Computer

1.How often do you use your computer?

I use my computer every day, for browsing news, making purchase online, as well as for downloading learning apps.

Topic 2 Park/Garden

1.Are public gardens very important in China?

I assume yes. Public gardens may help to purify the air as well as provide us with a good place to stroll in. After tiring work or study, we feel at ease in the garden with all kinds of flowers in the eyesight. Also the garden is a symbol of local “green-belts”.

2.Do you think there are enough public gardens in your hometown?

I guess yes, but there is no garden nearby my house. I wish there were more.

3.What do you think are the benefits of having gardens in the city?

Well, I would say, they beautify the city and enhance tourism by attracting visitors. What’s more, they are often where couplesflirt.

4.Do gardens play the same role for old people and young people?

I don’t think so. Old people tend to walk in the garden to kill time or loneliness, while for young people, the garden is a cosy place for them to talk about love. Anyway, the garden is a nice place for all ages of people to relax and to read.

5.Do you think gardens have any value for children?

For children, the garden is a childhood memory cos when they grow up and recall the past, they at least share something in common that they experienced all together.

6.Which do you think is more important, public gardens or private gardens?

Public gardens, of course, since public gardens are well-constructed with various public facilities. A boisterous but good-natured crowd may have fun together.

Or: Private gardens of course, cos we grow plants anytime available to build up our own independent space.

Topic 3 Science

1.Do you like science?

I do, science is the pillar of economic development and it’s against superstition.

2.Are there many science museums in your hometown?

I guess yes, like the Beijing Science and Technology Museum.

3.Did you like science classes when you were young?

I did, although they were kind’a demanding for me. I learned the mysteries of the world through science classes.

4.Do you think school children should learn both art classes and science classes?

Well, that depends. It’s hard to say cos for students who have an extremely keen interest in a certain subject that they also excel at, I don’t think it’s necessary to learn both; but for those who don’t show a particular preference, maybe it’s better to integrate art classes with science classes.

Topic 4 Handcrafts

1.Do you like to collect things made by hand?

I do, like puppets

2.Did you ever take handcrafts lessons at school?

I remember I did, but only few, about paper-cut.

In China, yes. Making handcrafts may exercise children’s imagination and creativity since they are at the best age to learn new things.

I prefer to study in the morning cos my mind is active after a good rest at night. We have the old saying: the best season during a day is the morning.

2.Why do some people find it difficult to focus in the morning?

I reckon because they don’t have a good rest, say they stayed up late the night before. Some people have really irregular timetables.

3.What do you do to improve learning efficiency?

I would say, to integrate work with leisure, have a clear division of work and rest by making a clear schedule. Keeping a good mood also matters a lot.

Nearly once a week. / Every day.

It’s just ok. I’m afraid of falling off. And we have to keep balance, actually. This maybe is the most difficult part for a beginner.

In intermediate and small cities yes, but I don’t think riding a bike is something good in a large city like in Beijing, we have a really fast pace of life every day, we’re tired. I just don’t wanna make myself worse.
