问题     Individual Long Turn
    Now, I’m going to give you a topic and I’d like you to talk about it for one to two minutes. Before you talk, you’ll have one minute to think about what you’re going to say. You can make some notes if you wish. Do you understand?
    Here’s some paper and a pencil for making notes and here’s your topic:
    I’d like you to describe a picture or a photograph that you have seen which you remember clearly.
    Describe a picture or photograph that you have seen which you remember clearly.
    You should say:
    what the image was
    where and when you saw it
    what type of feelings you had when you saw it and say why you think you remember it.
    Rounding off questions:
    Do you enjoy photographic images/paintings/pictures?
    Would you recommend this to others?

答案The image that I’m going to describe is a famous black and white photograph which has been reproduced many times over the years. I think it is called’ The Kiss’ but I’m not sure. It depicts a man and a woman meeting on the platform of a train station, perhaps after a long absence or maybe even after the man has been a soldier at war. You can’t see his face as he has his back to the camera and he is wearing a hat and there is a suitcase as well, I think. He is embracing the woman who has obviously been running along the train platform to meet him and he has taken her in his arms and is swinging her around. She is very beautiful and her expression is joyful at the return of her lover. Neither of them is looking at the camera as they are just in their own world. I can’t remember exactly when I first saw it, but I think it was as a teenager at the local poster store where there were many prints and pictures. I liked it so much that I saved up my allowance to buy a framed copy of it for my bedroom wall, where it hung for a couple of years. When I look at this image, I feel many things, and many emotions. There is love, of course, but also sadness that perhaps their reunion might be brief. I also feel it is a very romantic picture. I heard that it was a candid shot taken by chance by the photographer, but then later I also heard that it was posed, but I much prefer to think of it as a spontaneous moment which was captured on film. It is quite a nostalgic image, but one which tells a real story and that’s why I love it. The reason I remember it so well is that ! thought it was so romantic and heartfelt, and also because I looked at it every day for a few years while it was hanging on my wall at home! I think I still have it somewhere. Yes, I do. I probably like them more than other types of art such as paintings. Probably not for someone’s house now, as it has become a bit dated.
