研究生英语期末口语题（科硕加硕士用20题）

1. Some people like to work in a team. Others would rather work individually. Which do you prefer and why?

答案：Personally, I prefer to work in a team, which offers me a excellent chance to learn from others and share my experience with them. There are many advantages of teamwork.

Firstly, with more minds set on specific goal, we have access more ideas. Looking at things from the perspective of others can increase the likelihood of quality innovation. Secondly, teams create an environment of support and propel people toward implementation. A team environment can boost the confidence of individuals, allowing them to do their best work. Thirdly, good team make the most of individual talents. Where one member may be weak , another might be strong and working together they provide the perfect resource for an organization. They will learn more and become better workers in their own jobs. Above all, I think that working in a group is more interesting and urge me to work harder.

就我个人而言，我更喜欢在一个团队中工作，这给了我一个很好的机会向别人学习和分享我的经验。团队合作有许多优点。

首先，有更多的思想设定在特定的目标上，我们就有更多的想法。从他人的角度看问题可以增加质量创新的可能性。

第二，团队创建支持的环境，并推动人们实现。团队环境可

以增强个人的信心，让他们尽自己最大的努力。

第三，优秀的团队充分发挥个人的才能。当一个成员可能是弱的，另一个可能是强的，他们一起工作为一个组织提供了完美的资源。他们越学越远，就越能在自己的工作中成为更好的员工。 最重要的是，我认为在团队中工作更有趣，并敦促我更加努力。 2. Please comment on the following statement: Computer ethics contribute to a better and safe use of computers in our daily life. 答案：FROM MY POINT OF VIEW ,that is definitely a right opinion. With the rapid development of technology, the computer plays an essential role in our daily life. When we are enjoying the big convenience of computer, there is also a serious network security problem that we can’t ignore. Computer ethics are nothing but how we use our personal moral while using the computers.

If most of people could follow and respect computer ethics, there will be less issues like cyber crimes, plagiarisms ,hackings and password thefts. So computer ethics contribute to a better and safe use of computer in our daily life.

这绝对是一个正确的观点。随着科技的迅速发展，计算机在我们的日常生活中扮演着重要的角色。当我们享受计算机的巨大便利时，也存在着一个不容忽视的严重的网络安全问题。计算机伦理只不过是我们在使用计算机时如何运用我们的个人道德。 如果大多数人都能遵守和尊重计算机道德，那么就会出现诸如网

络犯罪、剽窃、黑客攻击和密码盗窃等问题。因此，计算机伦理有助于在我们的日常生活中更好、更安全地使用计算机。 3. Why are we loosing productive land? How shall we address the land problems?

答案：1.Each year more and more land became degraded. The three main reasons a re overgrazing, overcutting and farming methods. Overgrazing makes the topsoil erodent and hard. Overcutting of trees also contributes to the loss of good land. And traditional farming methods are replaced by more redical method which use too much fertilizer on the land. It makes lots of soil pollutions.

2.At present there are a large number of cultivated land in the world therefore it’s necessary to improve farming methods to avoid soil pollution. And under the leading of the government to restore vegetation is also very important. Protecting precious land resource requires the efforts of all of us .

1.每年越来越多的土地退化。三个主要原因是过度放牧、过度砍伐和耕作方法。过度放牧使表层土壤变得侵蚀和坚硬。过度砍伐树木也会造成好土地的丧失。传统的耕作方法被更多的医疗方法所取代，这些方法在土地上使用过多的肥料。它造成了许多土壤污染。 2.目前世界上有大量的耕地，因此有必要改进耕作方式以避免土壤污染。在政府的领导下，恢复植被也很重要。保护宝贵的土地资源需要我们大家的努力。

4. Are you for or against the wide application of DNA testing?( 你是赞成还是反对ＤＮＡ测试的广泛使用)

答案：Personally, I disagree the widely application of DNA testing .Admittedly， DNA testing widely used in today's society has brought us a lot of convenience. But I think we should maintain a cautious attitude to DNA testing.

It is well known that the information contained in DNA is extremely private to every person. If DNA testing cannot be used properly, it is likely to result in extremely serious privacy violations. So I believe that in addition to the areas of human welfare such as criminal investigation, medical area, DNA testing should try to avoid excessive applications.

诚然,DNA测试广泛应用于当今社会带给我们很多方便。但是我认为我们应该对DNA检测保持谨慎的态度。

众所周知，DNA中包含的信息对每个人来说都是极其私密的。如果不能正确地使用DNA检测，很可能会导致极其严重的侵犯隐私行为。因此，我认为，除了刑事调查、医疗领域等人类福利领域外，DNA检测也应尽量避免过度应用。

5. What recommendations will you give to those who want to stay health?

答案：FROM MY POINT OF VIEW , In today's fast-paced urban life, to stay health first requires a healthy mind. Sleeping late is a very

unhealthy activity for modern people, but it may be essentially a regret for the time wasted and a fear of the coming day. For young women, the pursuit of physical thinness and delicate by an extreme means are also harmful to their health. We should have a more inclusive and open definition of beauty. Besides keeping body and mind happy, daily exercise is also very helpful to health. Keeping more than one hour of exercise every day and drinking more water are very beneficial to health.

在当今快节奏的都市生活中，要想有一个良好的身体首先需要有一个健康的心态。对于现代人来说晚睡是一个非常影响身体健康的行为，但其本质上是是对于已经消耗得时间的追悔和对即将开始的新的一天的恐惧。对于年轻女性，极端追求体态的纤细并且以一种极端的手段维持瘦也危害着她们的健康。我们应该有更为包容和开放的对美丽的定义。除了保持身心的愉悦，适度的锻炼也是对健康非常有帮助的，每天保持1个小时以上的运动量，多喝水都是非常有利于健康的.

6. Please comment on the following statement: Man can do nothing in face of natural disasters.

答案：I really cannot be with that point. The existence of natural disasters is also part of the natural rules. There is a limit to what human beings can do in the face of natural disasters, but it does not mean they are completely helpless.

In the face of natural disasters, adequate preparation can minimize casualties. For example, more use of earthquake-proof buildings can effectively reduce the loss of life in earthquakes. It is also necessary to strengthen emergency prevention training in areas which are prone to take place natural disasters easily. After a natural disaster, sufficient supplies and relief measures can also be as far as possible to minimize losses.

自然灾害的存在也是自然法则的一部分。人类面对自然灾害能做的事情的有限的，但是也不代表是完全束手无策的。面对自然灾害，事前充分的准备可以尽可能的减少人员的伤亡。例如多使用防地震建筑可以有效减少在地震中被夺取的生命。对自然灾害的多发地区加强应急防灾训练也是十分必要的。在自然灾害发生后，充足的救灾物资和救灾措施也可以尽量将损失最小化。 7. Why is economics regarded as a science?

答案：FROM MY POINT OF VIEW, economics belongs to science. When economics fist into being, economics focused on the study of empirical phenomena. Later, mathematics was introduced into economics, and economics was no longer only focused on the study of phenomena, but gradually became an academic economics, preferring deductive reasoning. Economics is not only about objective and precise, but also has the general characteristics of science, such as existing in a certain range of application. So economics is a kind of science.

在我的观念里，经济学是属于科学范畴的。最开始经济学以注重研究经验现象为主，后来数学被引进了经济学，经济学不再仅仅以现象研究为主了，慢慢的变成了一种学术性的经济学，偏好演绎推理。经济学不仅仅是客观的、精确地，而且具有科学的一般特征如理性客观，存在一定适用范围。因此经济学是科学的一种。 8. Comment on the impact of globalization on culture.

答案：In today's Internet era, globalization is an inevitable trend that no country can stay out of the way. Globalization has made the outstanding cultures of various countries collide with each other and create new cultural trends. Globalization has made every country more introspective about the bad habits in its traditional culture and made a unique contribution to the progress of global culture.

But at the same time, globalization has made it impossible for countries to develop their own culture independently. As a result of globalization, the invasion of cultural advantage areas on cultural disadvantage areas has caused the loss of traditional culture in some countries. Therefore, we should take full precautions while using globalization to develop our own culture.

在当今的网络时代，全球化是一种不可避免的潮流没有国家可以置身事外。全球化使得各国优秀的文化相互碰撞产生新的潮流。全球化使得每个国家对自己传统文化中的陋习更加自省，对

全球文化的进步作出了独特的贡献。

但是与此同现实，全球化在某种程度上使得各个国家丧失了独立发展文化的可能性。由于全球化，文化优势地区对文化劣势地区的侵袭使得一些国家的传统文化几乎丧失殆尽。因此我们应该在利用全球化发展自身文化的同时保持充分的警惕。

9. In what ways is new form of journalism different from traditional media?

答案：The biggest difference between new media and traditional media is that it relies on Internet technology, so new media has many characteristics of Internet. New media often offer us some information that comes from the preferences of the public, rather than the traditional information that is filtered and controlled by the authorities. Because of this, new media often have the problem of spreading false information and violating personal rights. New media is the trend of the Internet era, but we can't totally deny the advantages of traditional media. They are quite complementary, so should be in the future for a period of time we will get the message of this world through two kinds of media.

新媒体与传统媒体最大的不同就是它依托于互联网技术，因此新媒体具有许多互联网的特点。新媒体很多的时候展示给我们的是来自大众的喜好，而非传统的由权力部门进行筛选和掌控的信息。正是因为这样，新媒体也常常存在虚假信息泛滥和侵犯个人权益

的问题。新媒体是互联网时代的大势所趋，但是我们也不能完全否认传统媒体的优点。它们具有相当的互补性，因此应该在未来一段时间我们还是要通过两种媒体获取这个世界的信息。 10. Nowadays, people all over the world share the same fashions, advertising, brands, eating habits and TV channels. Do the disadvantages of this trend outweigh the advantages?

答案：Although we should be cautious about the inevitable convergence of popular culture around the world under globalization, we should not worry too much. First of all, the cultural symbols widely recognized in the world are generally able to evoke a wide resonance and escape from the bad taste. Secondly, these fashion, brands, music and so on will not make people abandon their traditional excellent culture. But the same cultural environment around the world may indeed limit people's imagination and creativity, and may make global culture more and more homogeneous. This may need to be addressed by strengthening the cultural identity of the nation itself.

全球化下世界各地的流行文化趋同是不可避免的，对此我们虽然应该保持谨慎的态度，但是大可不必过分担心。首先，在全球被广泛认同的文化符号，虽然不一定是最为优秀的，但是普遍都是能够引起广泛共鸣，脱离恶俗品味的。其次这些时尚、品牌、音乐等等也并不会令各国人民抛弃本国的传统优秀文化。但是全球

相同的文化大环境，的确可能会限制人们的想象力和创作力，可能会使得全球文化越来越同质化。这一点可能是需要通过加强本民族自身的文化特色来解决的。

11. Some students like online courses. Others like to take traditional classroom courses. Which do you prefer? Use specific reasons and examples to support your answer.

答案：I prefer traditional classroom courses. First of all, the flexibility of online courses is worthy of recognition, but it is also easier to be interrupted due to various matters. The classroom courses make me more focused. Secondly, the traditional class is more interactive, and by communicating with the teacher, it helps me to understand the focus issues. Finally, the traditional classroom courses also enable me to know other students' mastery of the courses, and find my own shortcomings. Even though online courses are a very convenient way to learn, I prefer to choose traditional classes when I have enough time.

我更喜欢传统的课堂课程。首先在线课程的灵活性是值得肯定的，但是它也更容易因为各种事项打断，课堂课程是我更为专注。其次，课堂课程的互动程度较高，通过与老师的交流可以加深对重点问题的理解。最后传统课堂课程也让我能够了解其他同学对课程的掌握状况，并且发现自身的缺点和不足。即便网上课程是十分方便的学习途径，在我有时间的情况下，我更倾向于选择传统

课堂

12. Do you agree or disagree with the following statement? Young people know more about the modern world than their parents do. Use specific reasons and examples to support your answer.

答案：Personally, I would like to say that I agree that young people know more about the modern world than their parents do, and there are some reasons for naming it. The first reason I want to talk about is that young people are likely to accept new things, because they are curious about everything, they want to try new things. The second reason is that the culture of young people has formed the mainstream of the modern world, such as the culture of fast food. The third reason is that young people accept more education and have a wider horizon than their parents. Advanced education and wide vision help young people better understand the modern world and accept new things. That's why I think young people understand the modern world better. 就我个人而言，我想说我同意年轻人比他们的父母更了解现代世界，并且有一些原因来命名。我想说的第一个原因是年轻人很可能接受新事物，因为他们对任何事物都很好奇，他们想尝试新事物。第二个原因是年轻人的文化构成了现代世界的主流，比如快餐文化。第三个原因是年轻人接受了更多的教育，比他们的父母拥有更广阔的视野。先进的教育和广阔的视野帮助年轻人更好地了解现代世界，接受新事物。这就是为什么我认为年轻人更了解

现代世界

13. Should Tianjin try to preserve its old, historic buildings or destroy them and replace them with Modern buildings?

答案：Personally, I believe that the old buildings and historical buildings in Tianjin should be protected rather than destroyed and replaced by modern buildings. The first reason is that every historical building is a valuable property of human beings. It highlights the architectural concept of that distant era. The second reason is that historical buildings always represent history. They are unique symbols left over from history. They are also a unique landmark of Tianjin that cannot be reproduced. If Tianjin loses these historic buildings, it will become like a soulless body and can no longer be called a complete city. Therefore, we have the obligation and responsibility to protect the old buildings in Tianjin. 就我个人认为，天津市的古建筑和历史建筑应该被保护起来，而不是被摧毁，用现代的建筑来取代它们。第一个原因是每一座历史建筑都是人类的宝贵财产，它它们凸显着那个遥远时代的建筑理念。第二个原因是历史建筑总是代表历史，他们是历史上遗留下来的独特符号。它们更是天津这座城市独一无二的地标不可被复刻。如果天津失去了这些历史悠久的建筑，将会变得像没有灵魂的躯体，再也不能称之为一个完整的城市。因此我们有义务和责任保护好天津的古老建筑。

14. Do you think it necessary for China to hold large conferences and

activities such as the Olympic Games, APEC, and Expo? Use specific examples to support your ideas.

答案：That is absolutely necessary. First of all, it is an inevitable trend t to hold various large-scale conferences and activities with the more and more influence of our country. Secondly, there are still some countries and regions in the world that do not know China well. Hosting various large-scale events is an opportunity to better show and promote ourselves to people around the world. For example, during the Olympic Games, a large number of foreigners came to China, which is a positive interaction between our country and the world. Finally, Chinese tourism and service industry will have an opportunity of blooming with large numbers of tourists coming to this event. It can promote the tourism development. Therefore, it is necessary for China to hold large conferences and activities.

这绝对是十分必要的。首先我们的国家影响力越来越大举办各类大型会议和活动是一个必然趋势。其次，在世界上仍然有一些国家和地区并不了解我们中国，举办各种大型活动是一个向全世界人民更好的展示和宣传自我的契机。例如奥运会和世博会期间都有大量的外国人来到中国，这是我们国家和世界的良性互动。 15. Take-away Apps on mobile phones are more and more popular nowadays. Some people believe that we are becoming lazier with the use of them. What do you think of this phenomenon?

答案：We live in the age of technology, and almost everything we do is mediated by technology. With the development of science and technology, our life has been changing. Take-away apps are becoming more popular. These apps make our lives easier. We don't have to waste time shopping and cooking. All we have to do is click on our phone and choose what we want. But just like a coin has two sides, on the one hand, they save us time and energy. On the other hand, they make us lazy and fat. They make our life easy and comfortable. The take away app also reduces our physical activity, which makes us lazy. In all aspects of our lives, we rely more and more on take-out food, which also makes it impossible to do outdoor activities. We spend most of our time indoors, working with machines, and have little time for outdoor activities, which is very harmful to us. Therefore, I think we should use them correctly to make our life healthier and more efficient.

我们生活在科技时代，几乎我们所做的每一件事都以科技为媒介。随着科技的发展，我们的生活一直在变化。如今，手机外卖应用越来越流行。

这些应用程序让我们的生活变得方便。我们不必浪费时间去购物和做饭。我们所要做的就是点击我们的电话，选择我们想要的。但是就像硬币有两面一样，一方面，它们节省了我们的时间和精力。另一方面，它们使我们又懒又胖。它们使我们的生活变得轻

松舒适。外卖应用也减少了我们的身体活动，这让我们变得懒惰。在生活的各个方面，我们越来越依赖于外卖，它们也使人无法进行户外活动。我们大部分时间都呆在室内，和机器一起工作，很少有时间进行户外活动，这对我们是非常有害的。因此，我认为我们应该正确地使用它们，使我们的生活更健康、更有效率。 16. In your opinion, what are some of the qualities of a good parent? List reasons and specific examples to explain why these characteristics are important.

答案：In my opinion, good parents should have at least the following three qualities. First, the family is every child's harbor and fortress. Good parents should be good at expressing their love for their children and giving them enough security. Second, children need more guidance than regulation when they grow up. Good parents should be able to give their children the space to develop freely. Finally, parents should be able to control their own behaviors and emotions well in front of their children, so as to avoid adverse effects on their children. 在我看来好的父母应该至少具备以下三点品质。第一，家庭是每一个孩子的港湾和堡垒。好的父母应该善于表达对孩子的爱并且能给予孩子足够的安全感。第二，孩子在成长的过程中需要的更多的是引导而不是管制。好的父母应该能够适当的给孩子自由发挥的空间去自由的成长。最后，父母在孩子面前应该能够良好的把控自己的行为和情绪，避免对孩子造成不利的影响。

17. Describe one of your future goals. Explain why this goal is important to you. Include reasons and details to support your response.

答案：My future goal is to be a competent lawyer. I have dreamed of becoming a lawyer since my childhood. Although the goddess of justice is blindfolded, I hope to protect my ideal world of justice with my own hands. In our society today, there are still many unfair things. I want to do more than just protect myself, but to be able to help more people out of their predicament. A fair and just society should not only be a picture in an ideal country but also exist in reality. I hope to contribute strength to realize the ideal society in my heart.

我未来的目标是成为一名称职的律师。成为律师我从小的梦想，虽然正义女神蒙着眼，但是我希望能靠我自己的双手捍卫我理想中的正义世界。在我们当今的社会中，仍然存在很多不公平的事情。我希望自己做的不仅仅是自保，而是能帮助更多的人摆脱本不应属于他们的窘迫境地。公平正义的社会不应该只是理想国中的图景更应该是现实存在的。我希望能为实现我心中的理想社会贡献一份力量。

18. Do you agree or disagree with the following statement? A university student should do some part-time jobs or internships during his or her summer vacations. List specific reasons to support your answer. 答案：I agree that university students can use the summer vacation to do some professional internships. But I don't think university students

should waste precious time on part-time jobs. There is a big difference between part-time jobs and internships, which can teach us how to turn what we learn in school into relevant practical skills. The internship enables us to better understand and strengthen our weaknesses in the future study. But part time doesn't enhance our skills, and it wastes the time we should spend studying our major. Part-time jobs are costly in terms of time but don't do much to improve ourselves. So I'm in favor of internships over part-time jobs. 我同意大学生可以利用暑假去做一些专业相关的实习。但是我认为大学生不应该浪费宝贵的学习时间去做兼职。兼职和实习是有很大差别的，实习可以教会我们如何把学校里学到的知识转化为相关的实务技能。实习让我们在以后的学习中更加了解自己的弱点并予以加强。但是兼职一方面不能增强我们的本领，而且浪费了我们本该用在钻研本专业方面的时间。兼职是一件时间成本高但是对我们自身提升没有很大帮助的事情。因此我赞同实习反对兼职。

19. Suppose some foreign friends are coming to visit you in Tianjin. Are there any places that you would like them to see?

答案：Before the founding of new China, tianjin was occupied by nine imperial powers, known as the %unique buildings. If my foreign friend comes to tianjin, I will show him some attractions. So the first place I want to show him is the

ancient culture street. It is mainly based on the folk architectural style of qing dynasty. There are nearly hundreds of shops along the street. When my friend strolls the streets, he can see its unique architectural style, appreciate its classic cultural features, and taste local delicacies. Then I will take him to the 5th old street, where there are several styles of architecture, such as Roman style, classical style and so on. It's really the thousand county building fair.Through this trip, I think my foreign friends will have an unforgettable trip in tianjin.

在新中国成立之前，天津被9个皇权占据，被誉为“建筑博物馆”，留下了许多独具特色的建筑。如果我的外国朋友来天津旅游，我会给他介绍一些景点。中国革命的历史遗迹、自然风光、寺庙、教堂、会堂和纪念场所，照亮了天津市的过去、现在和未来。所以我想带他去参观的第一个是古文化街。主要以清代民间建筑风格为基础。沿街有近几百家商店。当我的朋友在街上闲逛的时候，他可以看到它独特的建筑风格，欣赏它经典的文化特色，品尝当地美味的小吃。之后我会带他去五老街，那里出现了几种风格的建筑，比如罗马风格、古典风格等等。它真的是\千县建筑博览会\

通过这次旅行，我想我的外国朋友将会在天津经历一次难忘的旅行。

20. Do you think it is a good idea to offer free bus service to the elderly? Why or why not?

答案：Personally, I believe it's a good idea to offer free bus service to the elderly for some reasons.

On the one hand, respecting the old is our traditional virtue. The elderly are generally broken in health and need the care of other members of society. Providing free bus service to the elderly is a kind of understanding to the disadvantaged groups, which reflects the fine traditions of our nation.

On the other hand, older people tend to earn less because they have retired. Free bus service can facilitate the travel of the elderly, so that they can better integrate into the society. So that’s why I think it is a good idea to offer free bus service to the elderly.

一方面，敬老是我们的传统美德。老年人一般行动不便需要其他社会成员照顾。给老人提供免的公交车服务是一种对弱势群体的体谅，体现着我们民族的优良传统。

另一方面，老年人因为已经退休，收入往往较低。免费的公交服务可以方便老年人的出行，使他们更好的融入社会。
