今天是9月的第一個考試日。目前為止,已掌握的新話題有一個,是Part1的:News。其實(shí)有些考生可能對這個Topic并不是很陌生,早在Part2話題卡:后面的Part3問題中就出現(xiàn)過新聞話題的討論。只不過這次放在Part1中,難度小了很多,考到的幾率卻大了很多。Part3話題降低難度,放入Part1進(jìn)行考察,口語考試這樣的變化趨勢越來越明顯……
1. What are the different ways people get news? (簡單談一下大眾傳媒的多種方式就可以了.)
Mass mediais the most important channel through which we get the news.Newspapers,TV,Radioandmagazines. Nowadays,Internetoffers us a much easier access to the information. Sometimes ourfriendslike to talk about daily events, which provides another way for us to get news.
2. What types of news do you like? (對types的理解不同,回答的方法也不一樣.)
從傳播渠道上分:TV news, Radio News, Internet News.......
IpreferTV newsto the radio news. I can get a better understanding of the news on TV because I can see the vivid pictures and images. In addition, I feelmore convincedof the news through watching some TV interviews.
從新聞內(nèi)容上分:Local, Entertainment, Finance, Sports, Politics...
I preferlocal news. because it relates to my day to day stuff. To see if there are any crimes in my area I need to be aware of, to know what the weather will be like, & to see if there's any good show in town.
I likeinternational newsbecause I like to keep up-to-date about what's going on in the world in case I'm going on vacation, or need to do business abroad. I also like it because it teaches me about other cultures and that way learn a lot about human psychology.
3. Do you think children like (= are interested in) the news? (Why?/Why not?)
No I don't think they are interested because it is soodepressingandkids look for humourin TV also they would betoo young to understandwhat was going on.
There could be an announcement on the News about a Nuclear Bomb being on its way here and a lot of people would still stay , they are like: "Oooh, turn it over....... Its alldoom and gloomon the news." (doom and gloom: A deeply pessimistic outlook or feeling. 悲觀,黯淡.)
4.Are old people and young people interested in the same (kinds of) news? (Why?/Why not?)
If they aren't, they should be. A young person can learn so much from a senior, and a senior can learn a lot from a young person also. But on average, I would say kids like stuff about sports music and entertainment more than seniors do.
It reallydepends on the individualand not their age. For example:I know young people who are very interested in global events and some elderly interested in celebrity watching, andvice-versa. It is individual preference. (vice-versa: 反之亦然.)
5. How does the news affect people?
News willaffect people's expectationsabout the future. They will rearrange and adapt their plans to the changes they get from the news. For instance, a large number of people keep an eye on what's going on in the stock market..........
News influences people by only reporting certain things and leaving out parts that could matter.One sided newsor journalism isn't news but propaganda in my opinion. It's like the good old saying LeLe always mentioned:Some people would rather believe the lies of Satan than the truth of God.
新聞只是通過報(bào)道某一些事情或者報(bào)道部分事情來影響人們。在我看來:片面之詞的新聞或報(bào)道不是新聞而是宣傳或?qū)?。就像樂靜常提到的那句諺語:人們寧愿相信撒旦的謊言,也不去相信上帝的真理。
