雅思口语答案

handwriting 1.Do you like handwriting? Answer 1: Yes. I’m really proud of my handwriting. I’ve practiced calligraphy for a few years. Answer 2: No. I can’t write with a pen very fast. It always takes a lot of time for me to take notes or write things down. 2.Do you prefer handwriting or typing? Answer 1: I prefer typing! When I type I can use both of my hands, which is quicker than handwriting! Answer 2: I like handwriting more. It’s just I’m used to it. Typing is not as good as handwriting. 3.How’s your handwriting? Answer 1: Ha ha, you wouldn’t want to see my handwriting. It looks like abstract art to people like my parents. Answer 2: I think it’s okay and readable. But I wouldn’t say it’s pretty good. 4.Can you tell a person’s personality by his handwriting? Answer 1: I can’t, because these days, people don’t write that much. It’s just very judgmental if we only judge a person’s personality based on how he writes with a pen. Answer 2: I’m not 100% accurate in this case, but according to my experiences, I did guess right a few times just by looking at someone’s handwriting. 5.How would you feel if you received a handwritten letter? Answer 1: Well, if the letter came from people I know, I would be thrilled, because I know it must be something special that this person wanted to write with a pen. Answer 2: Honestly, a hand written letter won’t make me feel different. When I read letters, I care more about the content not the font of the words. friends 1. Do you prefer more general friends or just a few good friends? Answer 1: I prefer a few good friends. These people will help me when I’m in trouble. As to general friends, it’s a bit strange to ask for help since we aren’t that close. Answer 2: honestly I want to keep the balance, just a few good ones, and some general ones. I like to have more people on my friends list, so I get to learn more. 2. What are the differences between best friends and other friends? A best friend is someone you may not talk to very often, but you never feel distant. General friends are easy to lose so you need to talk to them often. 3. Who is your best friend?

Answer 1: Mostly we hang out at a coffee place to drink something and chat for a few hours. Sometimes we go shopping together. Answer 2: I like to play sports with my buddies. As most of my friends are really athletic, so we may play basketball for the whole afternoon and go get a drink later. 5. Do you like to make friends? Answer 1: I like to do that on a regular basis. I’m a social person, so if I can’t have more friends, I’ll be bored. Answer 2: Kind of. I don’t need too many friends, but it’s good to have some new ones. It’s necessary for me. public holiday 1. Do you have many public holidays in China? Yes I think so. Almost every month, there is a public holiday. Like this month, we have New Year, everyone was off work for three days. 2. Which public holiday do you prefer? Spring festival: I like spring festival most. It’s the biggest festival every year. The holiday is a week long. I get to see my relatives and friends. It’s a lot of fun! National holiday: national holiday is my favorite because it’s in autumn, the best season for travelling ever! Besides, it’s my country’s birthday, I always have a sense of pride towards this holiday. New year: I guess new year is my top preference. It’s the first day of a new year, I usually feel more alive.

What types of advertisements are there in your country? I think there are tons of them. When you walk in downtown area in a city, you see billboards, neon signs or posters. When you ride on a bus, you see ads on the back of each chair. And of course TV commercials are insane, you can’t avoid them in China. 3. Have you bought anything because of advertisements? Yes, I can name a few. For example, I bought my first pair of Nike shoes after I saw their ad.

Will you look at the advertisement on the street? Well, if I’m just having a walk, sure, I’ll look at them. But if I’m on my way somewhere, I won’t care what’s going on in those advertisements. 5.

Otherwise I’d rather not buy them. 5. How often do you buy shoes? It’s hard to say. I’m not like other girls who have to buy shoes regularly. I just like to hang out at a mall without a purpose, if I see shoes I like I’ll buy instantly. 6. Will you buy shoes online? Answer 1: Yes, I’ve bought quite a few pairs. I just have this talent that I can judge what size is good for me basedon the pictures! Answer 2: No, that’s very risky.

For these people, history books are not a good source of information, they want to have something more visual. So museums can definitely meet their requirements. 6.

And there is nothing wrong that the museum runs a shop for people who want to buy something interesting and historical. 7. Did you go to any museums when you were a child? I guess so.
