答案Topic 1: What Is the Best Way to Keep Fit? — You know, recently, I am really gaining weight. Do you have any suggestions on what to do? — Well, that’s a sticky problem. You are really a gourmet, aren’t you? And in the meantime, you want to lose weight and keep fit. — Exactly, but I know sometimes good wishes may clash, and I simply have no idea where to start. But is there any way that I can feel healthier without controlling my appetite? — Let me see. How about doing more exercise in the morning and evening? — For example, what? — I don’t know what exercises you are keen on. For me, I am such a cycling enthasiast. I often go riding bicycles with my friends in the countryside. What do you think about this? — No, cycling is not my cup of tea. I am more of a person who is fond of tranquility than of dynamism. — Ha, I got it. Yoga is really hip lately. You can join a yoga group when you are free. And what’s more, it can really trim you down and make you look like a million bucks. — That’s cool! I can’t wait to get started! Thank you indeed! Topic 2: What Makes a Successful Marriage? — Today’s young people tend to marry late although they still attach great attention to the importance and healthy effects of successful marriage. — Maybe that is because people are afraid of failure in marriage. You know the divorce rate in China is increasing every year. — We should know the keys to a successful marriage before starting a family. Don’t you think so? — Of course! I think the first thing to guarantee a successful marriage is to have enough knowledge of each other before getting married. Otherwise, conflicts will appear. — But that doesn’t necessarily guarantee happiness every day. As we know, no matter how much you know about a person, there’s bound to be some differences between the two of you . — If I understand it right, you mean it is not necessary to know enough of each other before marriage? — I don’t think it unnecessary. It is just that people should have some tolerance and understanding of one’s life-partner. That’s the key to happy marriage. — It makes sense! Still, common interest, way of living, eating habits or similar viewpoint on certain critical issues are very important too. — Right! But anyway tolerance and understanding should rank the first among the many factors. Topic 4: Studying English in China or Studying English Abroad — I have been learning English for quite a few years, but the more I learn, the more difficult I find it is. — The same is with me. And sometimes I find the toughest part is listening and speaking. Maybe we’d better go abroad if we want to make fast and essential progress. — Maybe that’ll be a good choice, but not the best and most efficient way to progress. — So you still think the best way to study English is to learn it in the classroom in our country? You know experts say language could be acquired the most efficiently when people are in settings with enough native speakers. — That’s true, but there’re actually not as many English speakers helping you with your oral English when you’re really in an English speaking country. — What are you talking about? Why can’t I meet native speakers? Are you saying that they’ll communicate with me in Chinese? You must be joking. — I’m not joking actually. Once you’re abroad, you’ll tend to be with Chinese speakers more due to language inefficiency and your loneliness. Besides, you’ll meet many Chinese speakers around who will be ready at your assistance and you’ll never be willing to use English at all. — I don’t think so. I’ll make the most of opportunities to speak English as much as possible. Day after day I could surely improve my oral English by speaking more. — Well, that’s only what you think. Maybe you’ll luckily learn a certain accent. — Don’t speak that way. If I decide to go abroad, I’ll surely choose a city with a standard accent. — Of course you can, but there’s one more important thing. You’ll never acquire perfect grammar as you can in China. — I don’t understand what you mean at all. Of course I can. I think the grammar we’re learning in China is out of date and too traditional. In an English environment I could easily learn the grammar and with joy maybe, unconsciously. — You could surely dream of that. But attention: native speakers rarely correct your grammatical mistakes only if they could understand you. You know, we Chinese seldom correct the grammatical mistakes from a foreigner. — That’s true. If we could understand them, we’ll neglect ill-formed grammar. — We’ve missed the golden period of unconscious language learning. — And that reminds me of the strict and scientific drill practice in China, though it has been annoying me for some years. — And I have strong evidence here: according to a study, many people returning from abroad are involved in language programs for domestic training.
