1.What do you remember about learning gender roles when you
were a child?
Now I say something about learning gender roles when I was a child.
As a girl, when I was a little girl I always liked to play with my mother’s things, especially her jewelry and makeup. However, I often break them, so my mom would not allow me to play her things. Since I was three years old my parents are very busy for their work，hardly have any spare time to take care of me. So I often play with my elder brother, He was five years older than me,he take care of me particularly good, gradually, I liked to play with my brother’s things, for example, his toy cars、toy gun and Transformers. And in my opinion he is a particularly powerful people, so many things I would liked to learn from him.So that , even at school, I remember talking with other girls about toy cars, toy gun, and other aspects of the boy's toy. So, Until now, my character is also like a boy.
https://www.doczj.com/doc/fa4490664.html,pare and contrast the traditional Chinese gender-role
patterns and the modern Chinese gender-role patterns.
Now I say something about compare the traditional Chinese gender-role patterns with the modern Chinese gender-role patterns.
Traditionally, gender roles in China were affected by Confucianism, with men being the string leaders of the family, and women having less power. Usually the man go out to work to make money, and the woman stay at home do the housework and take care of the members of the family.
But this pattern has changed over time, the modern Chinese gender-role patterns are very different with the traditional Chinese gender-role patterns. Now women are equal to men, even in some families the status of the women is higher than the men. And now some women have high positions in business、science and other fields. In some families also appeared such phenomenon, the woman go out to work to make money, and the man stay at home do the housework and take care of the members of the family. On the other hand, it may still be difficult for women to
opportunities in school or at work.
3.Do you think all immigrants should try to assimilate? Why
or why not?
Now I say something about the question of whether all immigrants should try to assimilate. Yes, I think all immigrants should try to assimilate.
The first reason, because they will gain more from living abroad if they learn at least some of local language and customs. They will make more friends and have more opportunities.
And the second reason, every country has its own custom and culture, the immigrants should We have to recognize and respect the custom and cultural differences,so as to prevent any possible misunderstanding. For example, I see a piece of news from the Internet, this news is description about ,in Canada, they like Chinese money, but not necessarily welcome china immigration way of life, especially the latter are considered ‘disturbed’ National Aboriginal life.
So I think all immigrants should try to assimilate, at the
same time, they can keep themselves.
4.Would you rather go to a national park or an interesting city?
State your reasons.
I think for a national park and an interesting city, I would rather go to a national park.
One of the most important reason is that I love the nature. And the goal of national parks is to preserve natural areas in their wild state of people like me to enjoy. Here you can feel the body and mind are particularly https://www.doczj.com/doc/fa4490664.html,ually we are studying or working in the city, and often feel great pressure for us, so relaxing for us is necessary.
And another reason is that in the national park will have a lot of rare plant and animal. Here you can see something that you can not fond in other zoo or park. So here not only can broaden our horizons, but also the best place for us to study.
So I think if we have a vacation go to a national park is a very good choice for us. You will not be disappointed.
5.Do you think the advantages of World Heritage Status
outweigh the disadvantages? Why or why not? (For this topic, an example can be given to explain.)
Yes, I think the advantages of World Heritage Status outweigh the disadvantages.
I think the most important reason is that if the place become the World Heritage, the important places are being preserved as a result of their status. And the relevant departments will give more attention on this place, and there will have more laws to protect it.This will ensure that more of the good things be long preserved.
One of other reason is that these places attract a lot of tourists , Can give local people to provide more opportunities to make money and they also benefit economically.
And for example, Mount Wuyi is The World Heritage, and is The
World Cultural and Natural double Heritage.Mount Wuyi is located in the Wuyishan city in Fujian Province.Mount Wuyi Is the earth the same latitude area to protect the best and the most abundant species ecological system, has 2527 kinds of plant species, nearly 5000 kinds of wild animals.
So I think the advantages outweigh the disadvantages.
6.What are some advantages and disadvantages of having your
own business?
Now I say something about advantages and disadvantages of having your own business.
To my opinion I think one of the advantage of owning your own business is that the profit the business makes belongs to the owner. And another advantage is that a person can control his working hours and the flexibility to make changes when necessary. And do not need to worry about being blamed from the leadership.
However, everything has two sides, there will be some of disadvantages of having your own business. The first is that he must be having responsibility for everything, whether the business is doing well or badly, so they will face greater

They can have more chance to make themselves successful. 自信对于日常生活非常重要，它让你有一个健康的态度，研究表明自信会更快乐，它还能让人更有机会成功。 People say that self-confidence is half of the success. Without self-confidence, You can’t do well in anything. Self-confidence is very importance to a person. 人们说自信是成功的一半。没有自信，一个人就不能做好任何事。自信对一个人很重要也很有价值。 Firstly, Self-confidence, let a person maintain a good mental and physical state.We often say that the body is the capital of the revolution. Only when you are in good health, can you be really successful eventually. Secondly,once we gain self-confidence, we will possess the courage and strength to overcome the setbacks and difficulties. With self-confidence, no one and nothing can stop your way.Thirdly, with self-confidence we may accomplish something which seems to be impossible. No great thing is easy for us, therefore we should hold the idea that anything is possible.

以下为爱麟霖/(Curlylin)倾情奉献，需要的朋友可以参考一下 7. Friendship (Listening and Speaking Course, Unit 3; Integrated Course, Unit 2) 1) Do you have many friends? What kind of people do you want to make friends with? Why? Yes. I’d like to make friends with loyal people. In my opinion,a friend is a person who can share his/hers happiness with you, who can lend you a shoulder when you cry,who can give you a hand when you are in trouble without asking for anything in return. In a word,a friend in need is a friend indeed, I think a loyal people can do the things which were mentioned above for his/hers true friend. So I prefer to make friends with loyal people, and I also believe I am a loyal people who you can make friends with. 2) How do you make friends? Please comment on “a friend you buy isn’t worth the price”. First,I’d like to talk to him to find out whether we have the same interest with each other. If the answer is YES,then we have the foundation to develop a friendship. The next days, all we need to do is to treat each other by heart and soul. 3) How valuable is friendship in a person’s life? How can we keep friendship alive? As for me, I regard friendship as a very important part in my life.Just imagine a life,there’s no one to be your friend. What life could be if you had no friend to talk to , no friend to comfore you and cheer you up when you were having a hard time,no friend to lend you a hand when you needed help …… Life without friends is unthinkable ... We have to do hard work to build up and sustain our friendship. First, let your friends know that you really care about them.It’s important to give some cues to your friends. Be sure your friend knows that she is cared about.Second,try to be with your friends when they are in trouble when they need you. Keeping friendship alive is not only to say some sweet words,but need some real action. 4) What does friendship mean to you? What kind of friends do you think are true friends? It's a fantastic experience in whole of my life. Friendship to me is what water to fish.I can't live without a real friend. 2问见（1） 5) How can we get along well with other people? To begin with, we need to be honest with others and always say what we mean. Lies will surely make people stay far away from us in the long run. After all,honesty is the best policy. Second, we have to be humble enough. If we are proud in public, we can hardly win other's respect, not to mention "friendship" . Finally, we must not be selfish. We should learn how to show concern for others. As long as we abide[?'ba?d] by what is mentioned above, we will find it easy to get along well with others.
一、Want to be famous? why or why not Nowadays, it is a competitive world, every one of us is trying to get something through our every efforts. One big thing among them, is fame. However, is fame that important for everyone? I don't think so. As far as I am concerned, there are several reasons may accounting for my opinions. Firstly, the thing that really matters for a man is the process of your trying , but not the result you end up with. So from this aspect, being famous is not very necessary for us .Secondly, we are decided by nobody else but you yourself. The things that others said about you are only the "marks" they put on you, you should decide who you are by your own heart and soul. So , being famous is not a right attitude towards life. Last but not least, being famous will be bothered now and then by some people who only want to earn things from you. Nobody want to lose the feeling of "free"! Indeed, fame can earn something for us, but we may lose more. I will always follow my own aim and live in the world of my own! 二、The power of a good name(好名声) The power of a good name does play an important part in our daily life .Good Fame can Bring More Opportunities to a man who has a good fame, he will meet more opportunities.If he is notorious, of course he will lose a bunch of opportunites.In our social life, we will meet a lot of incidents, some of them are others giving you the surprises, some are depressed events that make you sorrow. For example, if some group wants holding a party, if you had a good reputation, lots of people want to invite you to, if you were notorious, no one wants you to go,
话题一： Do you think it’s necessary for a person to have ambition? Why or why not? B： hello , ljt, here i have a question to ask you. Do you agree that it is necessary to have ambition in our life? A：I agree with more than 100 percents. B：Then can you express your reasons？ A： Of course. It is not difficult to imagine a world short of ambition. Maybe it would be a kinder one: without demands, without conflictions, without disappointments. but how boring the life would be! As we know ambition is the basis and the source of success, which signs how far a person could go. Secondly, it provides us with the required driving force to accomplish any undertakings in our life. Indeed, once we make up our minds to choose to do something, our life will become meaningful and specifically orientated. B：I do not completely agree with you! A: why? B: Obviously, a well-orientated ambition can make his life beautiful, meaningful and rewarding, even make him as a respectable person. But a wrongly directed ambition can be
大学英语听说IV级口语考试题目（十三周考试用） 1.Some people like to travel with a companion. Other people prefer to travel alone. Which do you prefer? Use specific reasons and examples to support your choice. If you were to travel, would you want to be with a companion or alone? Some might say they would want to travel alone. However, I have an opposite opinion. I think it is better to travel with a companion for the following reasons, they can give us information about the place, we won’t feel boring if we travel together, and we can have opportunities to meet more people through a companion. People travel around some places to get information about the specific areas. To get the information about the place, we need a guide. If we hire a guide, we should pay money and we will somewhat not be free to go anywhere. Despite that, if we travel with friends, they could tell us about it as a guide. We can save money and get some information about the place that we visit. In addition, we could be free to go anywhere we want. As t o the second point, if we travel with friends, we wouldn’t fell tedious while traveling. We can talk to each other and get chances to know each other more. On the other hand, traveling alone could make us feel down because it is quite boring to hang around by themselves. Thus, I would prefer traveling with a companion to alone. Besides, the second point, if we travel with a companion, we can get more opportunities to meet other people through my friends. For example, when I was 10 years old, I went to china. I have met a lot of people through my friend there and I’m still keeping in touch with them. If I didn’t go to china with my friend, I could have not met them in my life. This is the final reason why I think it is better to travel with friends rather alone. To conclude, some people might say it is better to travel alone because it might interrupt us if we travel with a companion. Nevertheless, I think it would be better to travel with a companion for the previous reasons, they can tell us some information about the place, we can enjoy more because it’s not boring, and we could get opportunities to meet many people through friends. 2.Some people like to do only what they already do well. Other people prefer to try new things and take risks. Which do you prefer? Use specific reasons and examples to support your choice. Many people like to do things that they already do well, many others like to take risks to do things new. Both sides are supported by good reasons. For my part, I think it depends on what kind of things that people in the face of. I prefer to do things that I already do well when I should do things to benefit the others. On the other hand, I would like to take risks to try something new in order to improve myself, that means I will be the person who benefit from what I do. People are all live in the society and have relationships with each other. So what one do can influence the others directly or indirectly. In this case, people should do their best to benefit and convenient for the others. If one does not have enough experience and skills to do things well, the people around them maybe complain or they will ruin their plan. Is it very nice to share their own risks to the others to get more experience for themselves? Absolutely not. The society or the small
