新视野视听第三册口语题目参考Unit 011. What factors may weaken one's memory?It is often reported that long-term poor nutrition may affect the functioning of the brain, thus damaging both the long-term and short-term memory. Also harmful to one's memory is lack of water. Elderly people need plenty of water to guarantee their memory works. A third factor is lack of sleep. Without enough sleep, one may feel tired and have difficulty concentrating, not to mention learning things by heart.2. Can you describe some possible advantages of having a poor memory?A poor memory may have some advantages. With the passage of time, the sad memories will fade. Those with a short memory tend to recover faster than those with a tenacious memory. For the same reason, forgetful people may be more ready to forget their daily worries and forgive others for their offenses. With a less retentive mind, they may enjoy life more.3. What can you do to make sure all your relatives and friends are on the guest list for your birthday party?First of all, I would check my address book and tick thenames of those I intend to invite. Then, to avoid possible omissions, I would ask some of my close relatives, friends and colleagues to look at my initial list of names. They might suggest one or two additions. In this way, I can reduce the chances of missing those I should invite.4. How do you ensure important phone numbers are always at your fingertips?I usually remember my close relatives and friends' phone numbers through frequent use. But my memory cannot always be trusted. In this case, a mobile phone is extremely useful because it can store many phone numbers. But when the batteries run down, the mobile phone can't help either. So I also rely on my address book. To play safe, I prefer to have two address books. I take one with me and leave the other at home. Thus I can always find the number I need.My memory is fading /my mind has gone blankEvery forgets something sometimes/one thing or another thing from time to timeHave a powerful memoryWhat’s wrong with my memoryUnit 021. What subject do you like best? What made you like it: your personal interests, the teacher, the practical applications of the course in future, etc.?I like physics best, though many classmates find it hard. A lot of factors led me to like this subject. As early as in high school, I was amazed at the laws scientists like Newton and Einstein discovered. What I they found out changed the world. Luckily, my physics teacher at this university is excellent. He is knowledgeable and patient. Just because of him, I'm willing to spend lots of my spare time on this subject. Most importantly, what I have learned from the physics course will be of great help in landing a good job. Nowadays many companies think physics majors often have a solid academic foundation and can easily adapt themselves to a wide variety of positions. 2. Do you think it is necessary for some Chinese children to do a lot of difficult math problems for the Olympic Math Competition?Some parents believe that by doing a lot of difficult math problems, their children will have a solid foundation in math. Some parents even believe that trying to solve hard mathproblems will promote the growth of children's brains and help develop their logical reasoning ability and concentration, which will facilitate learning in other areas. On the other hand, many people believe that it is unnecessary and unnatural for children to study difficult [math problems. Some people even believe that strict math training harms children's moral and physical development. Fierce competition may dampen the spirit of teamwork, which is so important in the contemporary world.3. What study habits seem to be common among successful students?Many top students seem to have these good study habits: They tend to have a strong sense of time and organize their time well. They may draw up their study plan well in advance. While studying, they check whether they are working ahead of schedule or lagging behind it. They usually work in a systematic way. Before class, they preview the text to get some idea about what the teacher is going to say and which part of the text is difficult. In class, they listen attentively, take notes of the main points of the lecture, and ask questions when they don't understand. After class, they review what they have learned. By going through the text and the notes, they can remember important information.4. How to prevent students' cheating in examinations?First, the administrators must adopt severe measures to punish that disgraceful practice. In the case of serious offenders, it is not enough just to give them an F. They must repeat the whole year, or even be expelled from school. Second, it is more important for teachers to enforce the university rules strictly. When they see students cheating, they should not turn a blind eye to it.Unit 031. What do you think are the things that contribute to a successful marriage?The success of a marriage is due to many factors, of which love is obviously the most important one. Other [factors, which are not entirely unrelated to love, include shared values and interests, mutual understanding, | commitment, effective communication, similar educational background, equal economic status, physical fitness, etc. With the same values and moral standards, friends may develop into lifelong partners. After marriage, there needs to be a commitment to one another, and to the well-being and development of the family. Similar educational background and intelligence levelsare also considered important by some people. They believe that only with mutual appreciation and understanding can the couple get along easily and happily.2. Why do people get divorced? Can you guess some of the reasons?Sometimes it is because the couple did not really understand each other before the marriage, as love was [blind at that time. After marriage, they see each other's shortcomings more clearly. When disappointment grows beyond control, divorce becomes inevitable. Sometimes it is because one of the couple has changed after the marriage. For example, after the husband is promoted to a leading position, he may have a hectic |time all year round, with hardly any time left to be with his wife. Sometimes one of the couple has lost his or [her job and becomes irritable. Due to the continual quarrelling at home, the family breaks up.3. What do you think of the lives of single mothers?Most people look upon single mothers with sympathy. Single mothers have to support their children on their [own. They may find it difficult to provide their children with all the luxuries children of two-parent families enjoy. Worse still, they may be under great psychological pressure. Moreover, their children may develop a sense of inferiority. When they seeother children are bathed in the love of both parents, they may feel bitterly disappointed.4. What is your view of the fact that the wife's housekeeping duties remain the same even when she works outside? What could be the solution?If the wife works during the day just like the husband, then it is obviously unfair for the wife to shoulder all the housekeeping duties. If the husband can share the household chores with the wife, the love between them can be strengthened. Unfortunately, influenced by tradition, many men are unwilling to do housework, thinking it to be unmanly. If we want to change the situation, the media had better give more publicity to "model husbands" who assume a large part of those duties. Gradually, people may change their image of a husband who constantly sits in front of the TV, watching football games or international news. Also, the development of modern technology and the appearance of more modern conveniences will further lighten the housekeeping burden. IUS the problem of who should do the housework will become less important.Unit 041. What do you think people will choose: a low-paid jobone likes, or a boring well-paid job?I think many people prefer to find a job that they really like. After all, most people want to enjoy themselves rather than have plenty of money without a sense of achievement and happiness. On the other hand, some people may choose a well-paid job instead of a job close to their heart to earn more money. If one is in serious financial difficulty, one can hardly afford the luxury of a dream job. Money is the lop priority. 2. Do you think one's character is important in finding a job? Why or why not?I think it is. Although many employers lay emphasis on candidates' educational background and work experience, some believe that candidates' character is equally important for a successful career. In contemporary society, many projects are so large that they require the coordination of a group of people father than a single person's effort. Therefore, a good team player is often welcomed. Professionally skilled people may not be able to accomplish a large project if they are easily angered and cannot get along with their colleagues. If you want to assume a leading position, you should be firm on important issues while allowing your subordinates plenty of freedom. In fact it is becoming increasingly common for companies to test candidates' EQ (emotional quotient) beforethey decide to hire them.3. What courses are useful for one's job?In fact, all courses may turn out to be useful in our future careers. The basic courses we take in the first two wears of university lay a solid foundation for our future development. In the case of computer majors, for example, the math they have learned will enhance their ability for logical reasoning. The English courses I they have followed will help them read the literature in their fields with greater ease. Art courses may increase their sense of balance and beauty.However, the courses in their specialties are often of greater relevance and value for their career development. I For instance, computer majors may find courses such as programming, computer network, database, and CAD (Computer Aided Design) more closely related to their future work.4. What questions do you think are often asked in an interview? Why are they asked?To start with, the interviewers may ask you about your education. In this way they can gather information to see if you have acquired the basic knowledge required for the job you are applying for. Perhaps most of them will ask you about your work experience in this field to see if you have thenecessary skills for the job you have in mind. Usually employers do not like an entirely inexperienced employee. They may also ask about your character, weaknesses and strengths to find out what kind of person you are. They may even ask you something that is not directly related to the job in question. Your answers tend to show your intelligence level and communication skills.Unit 051. Do you want to be a boss who is starting a company or an employee with a high salary?Different people may have different choices. Some people may put a regular job above good pay for a variety of reasons. Employees usually know what they are supposed to do and have a fairly stable life. With a high-paying job, they and their families can live a comfortable life. When they have accumulated enough money, they can start a business when conditions are favorable. On the other hand, many people want to set up a business of their own right now. Indeed, launching a company involves a lot of effort. What is worse, there is risk. But they like challenges. By trying to establish a company, not only may they make lots of money, they can also develop their abilities to overcome difficulties.2. What kind of boss would you like to work for: one who is inefficient but kind, or one who is efficient but very strict with employees?Many people, if not most, prefer to work for a kind, good-natured boss. Under such a boss, they feel secure and happy. The boss won't scold employees simply because they have made a small mistake. He will also be generous. It is true that sometimes because of his lack of ability, his company may not reap huge profits, and employees can hardly get a raise. But happiness is surely more important than money. However, some people, including me, will choose to work for a boss who is capable but very strict with his subordinates. If the boss is capable, he will lead the company to one new height after another. When the company thrives, all employees will benefit. Even if the boss may give an employee a severe dressing-down for something he or she did, the employee can learn a lesson from the event. Under such a boss, employees can gain valuable experience, which may serve as a good foundation for them to start a business of their own in the future.3. Why do some people think sports clothes and shoes provide a good business opportunity? What age groups do you think the business people should target? Why?With more leisure time and money, many people pay more attention to their health and recreation. As a result, more and more people will engage in sports, and they will buy more fitness gear, including sports clothes and shoes. Obviously this provides a hot business opportunity. In my opinion, business people should target young people first. They are active and participate more in sports than other age groups. But business people should not neglect older people. After retirement, they often find their health on the decline, and therefore have the motivation for fitness exercises. As for middle-aged people, many of them are under such great pressure at work that they can hardly afford the time for sports. |4. If you wanted to start a business, which factors would you consider: your education and ability, your money, or the market? Why?If I wanted to launch a business, I would consider all of these factors, for they all play an indispensable role. First of all, I would consider my ability. Since I majored in biology, I would be cautious in starting a company to sell something I am not familiar with such as building materials or DVDs. With my educational background, I may find it easier to run a company selling bio-tech products. The next thing I would have o take into account, is the money available. Suppose theestablishment of a company required a capital of a million dollars, I would try to see whether I could get a loan. If not, I would give up the idea and try to set up a smaller service company that required less capital. Last but not least, I would survey the market to see if the products I planned to deal with could be sold. If they were unmarketable, I had better give up the idea of founding a company in this area. If they sold well, then I would go ahead.Unit 061. Why do you think some people smoke? What are the disadvantages of smoking?Some people think smoking makes them relax. Some people smoke just because all those around them smoke. Some believe that by passing cigarettes around, it will be easier for them to start a friendship. Others claim that smoking is a precondition for a booming tobacco industry, which in turn ensures a large tax income for the state. But I think those reasons, if we can call them reasons, are insignificant compared with the harm smoking brings. I Smoking is harmful to one's health. It can lead to many diseases. Long-term smoking may result in lung diseases, or even lung cancer. Also, some heavy smokers may suffer frombreathing difficulty, high blood pressure, heart trouble, amongst other diseases. It has been proved that even non-smokers who breathe in the smoke can develop health problems. Moreover, cigarettes cost money. Some chain smokers consume two packs of cigarettes a day. This can be an unnecessary financial burden on a family that is not rich.2. What do you think can be done to improve older people's lives if their children do not live with them?First of all, children should visit their parents from time to time. This is a sign of concern, which can be a great comfort to them. Even if people are terribly busy under the pressure of work, they can at least call their parents to say hello. Furthermore, children should provide their parents with what they need. If older people can get money or I other supplies on a regular basis, they may get a sense of security. Also, the government should establish more homes and organize more activities to meet the increasing I needs of an aging population. If some older people prefer to live at home, they should hire caregivers. In the light of their shortage of money, an expert has proposed a system under which aged people can mortgage their apartments to the bank in exchange for a monthly income. By the time they pass away, the apartments belong to the bank. But at least the old people enjoy a decentlife while they are alive.3. Why do some people become alcoholics? How can they solve their drinking problems?Some people drink because their parents drink a lot, so they follow suit. Some people pick up the habit of drinking because they feel lonely or bored, others drink when they are sad or angry, and still others drink to celebrate happy occasions. Gradually, they drink more and more until they are hooked on alcohol. To solve drinking problems, people should be informed about the dangers of too much alcohol consumption, such as high blood pressure, heart disease, liver trouble, and so on. It is also reported that alcohol can damage brain cells and memory. Under the influence of alcohol, one can hardly concentrate or think deeply, so their work efficiency drops. Worse still, drunks often cause traffic accidents or resort to physical violence. Moreover, one must have strong willpower to give up drinking. But unfortunately, few people are strong-willed enough to defeat alcoholism on their own. Often, they need external help from parents, spouses, friends, doctors or an organization like Alcoholics Anonymous.4. What should be done to help unemployed people?Before unemployed people find a job, their basic living standard should be met. They need subsidies from thegovernment to live a normal life, which includes money for food, clothes, shelter and transportation. It is also important for unemployed people to be trained for re-employment. The government should offer training programs to update their skills so that they will become competitive in the job market again.Unit 071. According to your experience, what damages are being done to the environment? sand stormLittering. Some people throw away paper, cigarette butts, empty cans or even batteries in public places or in scenic sites. Pollution. When households and factories dump sewerage and harmful substances into rivers and lakes, water pollution can be serious. Air pollution may worsen as the economy develops. If the smoke from factory chimneys does not meet environmental standards, it pollutes the air. Also, the increasing number of cars brings further deterioration to the quality of the air. The cigarettes people smoke also contribute to the pollution. Poisonous Substances. When we discard air-conditioners and refrigerators, we release poisonous substances like CFCs, which deplete the ozone layer or create a hole in the ozone layer. When you use aerosol spray on yourhair, you are spreading environmentally-damaging freon as well.2. Can you think of some measures to protect forests?I think the most important thing to do is to create a law to forbid the cutting of trees in certain areas. Even when timber is needed for construction, logging should be well planned. In addition to the law, we also need law enforcement personnel who will fine those who fell trees illegally. It is not enough to protect the existing forests. We must also plant trees to make new forests. We should also grow various types of trees to ensure bio-diversity. To make the afforestation program successful, the government should award those units and individuals that have made outstanding contributions.3. If a chemical plant has to dump a poisonous substance into the river, but its closing-down means that many workers will lose their jobs and the local economy will be affected, then what do you propose to do?In my opinion, the first step we can take is to introduce advanced ecological technology to make sure that the sewerage from the plant is properly treated before it is discharged into the river. Since some company managers are unwilling to spend money treating pollutants, they may dumpnoxious substances during the night. So it is necessary to set up a watchdog team to supervise the plant's sewerage treatment. If the plant fails to meet the ecological standards, we have no choice but to shut it down. After all, human life is more important than anything else. If the workers lose their jobs because of the close-down, the government can give them subsidies and run training programs so that they can find new jobs in other sectors of the economy. If the local economy is badly hit by the close-down, the central government can consider subsidizing the local government for a certain period of time until the jobless workers are re-employed.4. Which types of energy should we use: wood, coal, petroleum, water power, nuclear energy or solar energy? Give your reasons.In my opinion, we should try our best to avoid using wood and coal as fuel. The burning of wood creates air pollution. Moreover, trees cannot be reproduced easily. It takes dozens of years or even hundreds of years for a young tree to grow into a big tree. Similarly, coal burning pollutes the air. It would be even more difficult to reproduce coal. The formation of coal takes thousands of years. Nowadays, people use petroleum the most. Cars, ships, aircraft and many factories depend on it. It causes less pollution than coal and wood, but it is alsonon-renewable. To leave enough resources for future generations, we need sustainable development. We have to use those fossil fuels less and turn to other types of energy such as water power, nuclear energy and solar energy.Unit 081. Compare air and rail transport and discuss the advantages and disadvantages.It is obvious that air transport or air travel is fast. Within hours, a plane can carry passengers and cargo to a place, thousands of miles away. Business people can fly to a distant city, do business there, and fly back on (he same day. A train, on the other hand, goes at a slower speed. It may take you more than a day to travel to a faraway place in the country. A problem with plane is that it is incapable of transporting large quantities of freight. In this respect the train is superior. The train can carry more goods than the plane and other modes of land transport.2. Do you prefer to fly business class or economy class?I prefer economy class. Thrift is considered a traditional virtue in Chinese society, and most people do not want to waste money on something that is not absolutely necessary. Some people want to fly business class, for they feel morecomfortable in a bigger seat with a better choice of foods and drinks. But I don't think the small benefits are worth the high costs. However, in some cases, for example, when traveling with an important business partner, I might want to buy business class, or even first class tickets to show my company's financial strength and give him/her confidence in doing business with us.3 Do you wish to be a flight attendant? Why or why not?First, flight attendants often have ample opportunities to fly to different parts of the country or even of the world. Through their service, flight attendants interact with many passengers. As a result, they tend to develop good interpersonal skills, which will prove to be valuable in the future, even after they transfer to a different job. Last but not least, flight attendants are usually well paid. But there are some disadvantages as well. An obvious drawback is that, often, they cannot go back home everyday. This irregular pattern of life makes it difficult for them to stay with their families. What's more, some passengers can be rude and unpleasant. The most undesirable aspect of their job, however, is the danger of accidents. All the advantages of a flying career disappear in a crash.4. Many airline companies are lowering fares andmaking smaller profits. Give some of the possible reasons.Airfare used to be quite high, so the aviation industry was highly profitable. The economic benefits drew more companies into the market, which in turn led to more intense competition. To survive in it, airlines have had to cut prices, which means smaller profits. In recent years, fuel has become increasingly expensive, and this has cut further into airline companies' profits. With higher salaries for employees, airlines now have only small profit margins.Unit 091. Name some Western and Chinese festivals, and special days that seem to be especially important, and explain why they are importantThere are a number of Western festivals, such as Christmas, Boxing Day, Thanksgiving Day, New Year's Day, New Year's Eve, Halloween, Valentine's Day, Mother's Day, and Father's Day. There are also a number of traditional festivals in China, such as the Spring Festival (or the Chinese New Year), the Lantern Festival the Pure Brightness Festival (or Qingming Festival or the Tomb-Visiting Festival), the Dragon Boat Festival, the Mid-Autumn Festival, the Double-Ninth Festival(or the Seniors'Day), etc. Some Western holidays such as Mother's Day, Father's Day and Valentine's Day are also becoming popular in China. In the West, Christmas is obviously the most important festival since it involves a long holiday, and almost all the people celebrate it. In fact, it has become quite popular in many non-Western countries. In China the Spring Festival is clearly the most important traditional holiday, which lasts three days or more and most Chinese both at home and abroad celebrate it.2. Do you mink it is necessary for the Chinese to celebrate Christmas?I think we Chinese should pay more attention to traditional Chinese festivals such as the Spring Festival, the Lantern Festival and the Mid-Autumn Festival. Observance of those traditional holidays increases cohesion of the entire nation. If those traditional holidays should disappear, it would be a loss to Chinese culture and to world civilization as well. On the other hand, Christmas is a season for people to be jolly. It is also an occasion for people to express love and other pleasant feelings. When family members get together for a huge dinner, they have a sense of warmth and closeness. When children receive gifts, they are excited, and their happiness is infectious. As the world has become smaller throughglobalization, Christmas has become more popular in many non-Western countries.3. Why is Valentine's Day more popular in China now compared to it was decades ago?Since love is one of the most fundamental emotions, it certainly deserves a holiday. In fact, love is an eternal theme in novels, dramas and poems. People need a holiday to express their emotions. When people exchange cards and gifts on Valentine's Day, they express their affection for others and feel happy. The holiday seems to be especially important to young men and women. Therefore, young Chinese people have good reason to celebrate Valentine's Day. As China is gradually integrating with the rest of the world, why can't we celebrate Valentine's Day? Unfortunately, the traditional Chinese Lover's Day, which falls on the seventh day of the seventh lunar month, is largely neglected now, despite the interesting story of the meeting between the legendary Cowherd and Girl Weaver. Why hasn't the tradition been revived and made popular among young people?4. It is sometimes claimed that many festivals have been created just to encourage people to spend money. Do you agree?It is true that business people are seeking every。

Is ―Association‖ a principle—you know, you connect what you want to remember with something you‘re familiar with?C:Right on(正确)! ?Consolidation([con·sol·i·da·tion || k?n?s?l?'de??n巩固)‖is another.I review my notes right after class and consolidate—or absorb—the new material into what I‘ve already learned.A:That system is all very well for you; you‘ve got a good memory. But what about me? I‘ve got a memory lik e a sieve([s?v]).C:Y ou‘re too modest. There‘s nothing wrong with your memory. But memory is like a muscle; it needs exercise. And don‘t forget it.3.

Although many employers lay emphasis on candidates' educational background and work experience, some believe that candidates' character is equally important for a successful career.C:I agree with you. In contemporary society, many projects are so large that they require the coordination of a group of people rather than a single person's effort.Therefore, a good team player is often welcomed. Professionally skilled people may not be able to accomplish a large project if they are easily angered and cannot get along with their colleagues.D:Right on.One's character will determine whether you are adequate to the job.In addition,one will maximize his value only when he is the right people for this job.In a word,One's character is playing important role in the course of finding a job.5.What do you think can be done to improve older people’s lives if their children do not live with them?A:Nowadays, the aging phenomenon has been more and more serious.

Secondly,government should set up some nursing house for these older people. At last,children also can hire people to take care of their parents if they do not live with them.B:And when one go home, he should have enough patience to talk to your parents and listen to them even though he may be hear what they have said many times,and one could educate his child to look after their grandparents, which is good for children’growing.D: In short, there is no doubt that we also will become elderly people one day.

Have you looked at the want ads in the newspaper?A: I’ve been checking the want ads every day for a week, but I can’t find anything interesting that I’m qualified for.

A: Yes, I have no objection to that, but..B: That is only for their own good. It would give them a good foundation with their English learning....A:But apart from have to learn English very early, they have to learn our own language too! That's double pressure!B: It's necessary, in order to have a good future, they need to learn English early.A: I think learning our own language first is far more important.B: You can't be more wrong, learning other language is better start at younger age. When the brain is still empty with plenty of space to store new information!A: I do not agree. I think we are pushing our children too hard. We are giving them too much work and too much pressure at such a young age.B: You are wrong about that too. Learning English is just another subject in their school work. Most children only find learning English fun.A: That's your opinion, you are not children anymore, how do you know?B: You are not children either and how do you know they don't like it?A: That's common sense. How do you feel if you have been given double amount of homework, and have very little time to play when you were very young?B: I do not think learning English would take too much or any extra time for the children. They spend the same amount of time in school as before.A: What about after school? They have to revise two sets of languages compare with only one before, right?B: As I have put earlier, that's just another subject for them. The amount of homework would bestill reasonable and bearable for all the children.A: Oh, I don't think we will ever come to any conclusion of compromise. Let's stop our argument right here.B: Yes, before it harms our friendship. If we can't convince each other then betterjust leave the matter alone. So, still friends?A: Yes, we are still friends, let's forget about what have been argued about!B: Right.Topic 5 Envirovmental Problems1A: Do you think most people around you respect nature?B: I think so. Umm….. more now than before.A: What do you think is the most serious environmental problem in the world today?B: Today……I think damage to the ozone layer is a big problem because it will make our earth become warmer and warmer; and another problem is pollution in big cities and things like that. A: How do you learn about environmental problems?B: Umm… through school. A lot of clubs promote environmental safety, and some TV programs, too. They talk about environmental safety and stuff like that.A: Do you think students should learn more about the environment at school?B: I think so. So, as they grow older, they can be more aware of all the problems that are going on. And also to prevent more problems from occurring.A: If you could create a new law to help the environment, what would it be?B: A new law for the environment? Umm…. I ’d probably say that when people throw away their cigarette butts, they have to throw them into the garbage bin, not just throw them everywhere because it’s just littering and I hate that. So they should be fined if they throw them on the floor or on the ground.A: That’s a good idea. What do you personally do to help protect the environment?B: I’m so against littering. I never litter. If I see somebody litter, I get really ang ry. So I always throw my trash into the garbage bin.2A:Hello, what do you think of the weather today?B: It is very warm.A: Do you think it is a bit strange.It was cold this time last year.B:Yes, it is the end of autumn,and the weather should be cold.However, it is still warm.The winter is coming soon and I think we may have a warm winter this year.A: I agree. I am a bit worried about the change of weather.B: It is unnormal now. I am concerned about this, too.A: Do you know what causes the change of weather?B: Air pollution may be one of the reasons. Industries poor too much waste smoke into the air.The air has been polluted so seriously.A: That is a problem. The situation is becoming worse and woerse.B: What is more, we have done too much harm to our environment.For example, people cutdown trees, turn farmlands into buildings and so on.A: Yes, what we human beings have done have broken the balance of the ecology,which leads to the change of weather.B:I think we should do someting to help.A: Let us and people around us take action from now on.A:How long have you been in America?B: Since two years ago, what about you?A: Almost 10 years now.B: What impression do you get in this piece land of hope?A: The multicultural society of course. and you?B: Yes, I love about many things about this country, such as Hollywood, the home of moving pictures!A: Me too, I also love the way the American use the ideas of entertainments.B: What particular thing or things you like most about it then?A: I love country music!B: Oh that! yes I love them too. Plenty of beautiful songs.A: They made entertionments out of enterteinments as well!B: What are talking about?A: Well, the famous cartoon creating Walt Disney had also come up with the ideas of Disneyland and Disneyworld to entertain all the children from both the USA and everywhere in the world!
