1.Do you like reading?
No, I’m sick of reading. When I was a child, my mom used to force me to read science book and history, so I gradually lost interests in reading. As a result I feel sleepy and ratty while I’m reading now. What’s more it reminds me of the unhappy memory in the childhood.
我受夠了讀書了。小時候，我媽強迫我讀科普類和歷史類書籍，所以我漸漸對閱讀失去了興趣。最終導致我現(xiàn)在一讀書就犯困而且火大。更重要的是總會讓我想起童年不開心的回憶。
2.What types of things (books) do you like reading?
Well, I’m a big fan of non-realistic fiction, well, it’s because the stories are not factual and quite different from routine life, which makes me feel excited. Moreover, the events and descriptions in the book are full of imagination and creativity which can easily attract my attention. Not surprisingly, I can keep reading it day and night.
恩，我非常喜歡非紀實文學，因為這些故事都不是真實的而且和平時生活很不一樣，這點讓我很興奮。而且，書里發(fā)生的事件和描述都富有想象力和創(chuàng)造力，很容易吸引我。我能讀一整天也不足為奇。
3.What types of things (books) do you dislike reading?
【知心雅思】雅思全能 7分旗艦外教VIP全程班！點擊免費試聽>>
Well, I am not interested in science, especially the science textbook, because I have to use dictionary to find the meaning of specific words to illustrate the scientific theory. Well, on top of this, the content in the book is difficult to understand. Every time I read that, I feel sleepy and depressed.
恩，我對科普類不感興趣，尤其是教科書。因為我不得不用字典去找到一個具體詞的意思，然后才能理解一個科學理論。此外，書里的內(nèi)容還很難理解。我每次讀都發(fā)困而且覺得很郁悶。
4.Do you think it’s important for children to read?
Nope, I don’t think so. It’s totally unnecessary. Obviously, children should participate in more physical activities to keep fit and healthy. Well, you know, children are active and naughty, so it’s almost impossible for them to stick in reading at home. What’s more, most of the information a book brings to them is also available on TV or Internet.
我不這么認為。完全沒有必要。很明顯，兒童應該多參加體育活動，以保持健康。恩，你知道，小孩都調(diào)皮好動，所以讓他們呆在家里讀書幾乎是不可能的。并且，從電視或者網(wǎng)絡上也可以得到一本書的大部分信息。
5.Would you like to write a book?
Um…well, I’ve no idea, maybe I wouldn’t. I think I don’t have any special experience compared with those famous authors. Also, I’m not good at expressing my emotion in letters and I have no confidence to write a page-turner.
恩，我完全沒想法，或許不會。我覺得和那些的作家相比，我沒有任何特別的經(jīng)驗。而且，我并不擅長用字母表達自己的情感，我也沒有信心去寫一本引人入勝的著作。
6.Do you think it’s important to have public libraries?
Well, I think, no, it’s kind of useless. People can access to the virtual libraries through Internet, which is 24 hours a day seven days a week. So people who live in the outskirts or those disabled do not have to travel long distance. What’s more, the maintenance of public libraries is a waste of money, as you know, people normally don’t have time to go there.
恩，我覺得有點沒用。人們在網(wǎng)上就可以無時無刻地連接到虛擬圖書館。所以住在郊外或者身體行動不便的人不需要大老遠跑過來。而且，維持管理公共圖書館會很浪費錢，如你所知，人們通常沒有時間去圖書館。
