DAY 1最真实的谎言
1、Do you enjoy looking for gifts for people?(why/why not?) Yes, I do because selecting the right gifts can be really fun.The choices may seem endle, but I always try to consider my friends’ interests and personality.I can’t really afford expensive gifts.But I believe it’s the thought that counts.
2、Do you sometimes prefer to send a text meage instead of telephoning? (Why? /why not?) Yes.I prefer to text when the meage I want to send isn’t urgent, because that allows me more time to think things through and allows the receiver more time to think about how to respond.Texting is also much cheaper than calling.
3、Do you enjoy the advertisements on television? I would say I enjoy some of them because they are creative and witty.But it’s true most ads just spoil the fun of watching TV, and the information they bring us tends to be misleading.
4、Do you think it would be a good idea for schools to ask students their opinions about leons? It may be a good idea if the evaluation is well-managed.Students can get their voices heard when they evaluate the leons.Then the school will know how to keep up with the students’ demand.But on the other hand, some students’ comments may be unfair,which may hurt their teachers’ feelings.“十天突破雅思口语封面图”
5、Do you like making other people laugh? Sure.I know lots of jokes and really enjoy sharing them with friends of mine.It seems like I just happen to have a unique sense of humor.I tend to believe humor is eential to a good mood at work and at home as well.
6、What’s your favourite subject at school? Humm, I gue it’s PE, which stand for physical education.Sometimes we call it the gym cla, PE not just keeps us physically fit, it gets us more focused on academic subjects as well.
Sample
Rachel: Say, Kyle, are you ready for the big exam coming up this Friday?
Kyle: NO.I gue I’m nowhere near ready.Maybe it’s all because I really have no interest in biology.Rachel: So you’d better start studying. Kyle: I have an idea.The test is on Friday, so maybe on Thursday night you could come over to my apartment and help me cram（突击学习）
Rachel: It wouldn’t be very smart to try and rush through half a semester’s information in just three hour.We could compare notes, anyway.
Kyle: I’m busy every night this week.I’ve got a date tonight and tomorrow I’m playing basketball.I’ll just pull an all-nighter（熬夜学习）
Rachel: I don’t think studying all night is going to do you any good if you fall asleep during the test. Kyle: Humm, I gue you’re right.I’ll change my date to after the test and then I’ll be free to study this week.
To keep fit, I work out (=exercise) in the gym for an hour every day.I’m studying hard because I don’t want to let parents down (=disappoint sb.)
