Describe something you enjoy doing with an old person in your family
You should say:
What it is
How often you do it
Who you do it with
Why you enjoy doing it with this person
I enjoy spending time with my maternal grandmother. She is eighty and has an opinion on anything and everything. My grandma is an energetic person. She has some age-related problems but she gets about more than my mother or me. Actually, there are hardly any temples in South India that she hasn’t been to. She is fluent in most South Indian languages and also possesses a working knowledge of Sanskrit. I visit my grandmother at least once a month. When we were kids, we used to spend the weekends at her place and then she would tell us numerous stories from Hindu mythology and keep in entertained for hours on end. Actually, if I am deeply religious today, that is because of her. She also visits us very often, and whenever she does she makes it a point to bring us lots of gifts and other goodies. She is a generous woman who enjoys giving food and money to the needy. The reason that I enjoy spending time with her is that she has a positive attitude towards anything. Actually I have never seen her looking depressed or hopeless. She is great fun to be with.

Do you like to learn about history?
这是一道喜欢或者不喜欢类的题目,第一大家来学习一下表达‘喜欢’的语言,题目中的like可以替换成be interested in; be into; be fond of; 或者用I find something interesting.不喜欢除去用dislike以外,还可以替换成hate; loathe; be fed up with; be sick of.
关于这道题,一般情况下,大家会回答喜欢,或者不喜欢。注意,答案尽可能以Yes, I do.的形式出现,而不是单独的yes。同时也可以替换成Yes, very much so; Yes, definitely; Yes, absolutely等表达。同样,否定的答案,可以用Not really; Not exactly; 或者是,No, it’s not my kind of thing来代替。
若该题目的答案是喜欢,那样大家需要在表明倾向后加以讲解,一般是给出缘由或例子。除去以上所讲到的历史有哪些用途外,喜欢知道历史是什么原因还可以是:The historical events are very interesting;It can make us wise等。
若回答不喜欢,则也须说明缘由,或者说明不喜欢的地方在哪。这里推荐给考生一个加分的表达:to have a love-hate relationship with something,意思是说对某物或是某件事情既爱又恨。回想大家不喜欢历史是什么原因,可能更多的是由于大家不喜欢以背诵为主的历史考试,而非大家对历史事件真的不有兴趣。
范例1: Yes, very much so. I’d say history is my real love. You know, it’s easy for me to get lost while reading historical books or watching some documentaries. I find history very interesting, mainly because it helps me stretch my perspective across time and space to think about what happened in the past and how our ancestors experienced things.
范例2: Well, to be honest, I have a love-hate relationship with history, generally because I’m much into the stories and the insights it gives me into the past, but I’m really struggling in the history exams which are usually centered around dates, names and places.

Do you think history is important?
关于这道题目,相信大家大部分考生都会给出一定的回答:历史是要紧的。其缘由可以是以下几个方面:
It allows people to understand how culture, politics, economy, society and values developed.
History not only deals with the past but also with how the past led to the present.
It tells us what happened in the past, so that we avoid repeating mistakes.
范例:Yes, I think so. History not only deals with the past, but also with how the past led to the present. So it allows people to understand how culture, politics, society and values developed. More importantly, since it tells us what happened in the past, we could avoid repeating mistakes.

Do you think the Internet is a good place to learn about history?
同样,这也是一道是非疑问类的题目,无论大家的答案是一定的还是相反的,都需要有充分的支持。比如,这道题目你可以回答‘是’,然后在给出理由,可以是互联网资源充分,且免费,查阅便捷等等。所以你常常到哪种网站上去浏览哪种历史常识。
此外,你还可以给出否定的答案,然后给出缘由,可能是由于互联网信息并不一直靠谱或者客观,也会是由于互联网当中充斥着很多的误导或不真实或歪曲的信息,还大概是由于互联网上信息量过于庞大致使非常难找到真的有用靠谱的信息。因此大家应当慎重用互联网信息
范例1:Yes, I guess so. It’s mainly because the Internet gives us a convenient access to information on almost everything we need. So I usually go to some news and education websites to read some information about history or other things.
范例2: Well, I don’t think it’s necessarily the case, mainly because the stuff on the Internet is not always reliable or objective. You know, everyone can publish their own ideas on the websites so the Internet might be awash with a huge amount of misleading, false or distorted things. In addition, with so much information in the website, people may find it difficult to search for the useful and reliable information which they really need. So yeah, that’s basically why I suppose not.

You should say:
When you received it
Who sent it
What it was about
Why it was important to you
Ok, well I suppose one of the most important letters I’ve received was an offer letter from a university I applied to – Leeds University, to be precise – so that’s what I think I’ll talk about.
And as for who the letter was from, well, I can't quite remember the name of the actual person who wrote it, I’m afraid, but if I’m not mistaken, it was sent by the university admissions office, who I guess are responsible for handling such matters.
Anyway, regarding what the letter was about, well basically, it was just informing me that I had been accepted onto their Master’s program in Finance, so it was really great news for me, because this was the course that I most wanted to study, and out of all the various universities that I applied to, Leeds was definitely TOP of my list, as it was the one that most appealed to me, in terms of both the course content and social life.
So, as you can imagine, I was over the moon after receiving the offer. I mean, it felt like all the years of hard work I’ve put into my studies seemed to have finally paid off, so it was like a dream come true for me, it really was.
And finally then, with regard to why this letter was important, well, I think it goes without saying that it was extremely important, because essentially, it means that I’m gonna be able to study abroad, which I’m sure will have a huge impact on my future career, as it will hopefully enable me to apply for jobs which I wouldn’t have otherwise been considered for.
And as well as this, I reckon that studying abroad will help me become more mature and independent, which I’ve noticed has happened with a few of my friends who have spent some time abroad, and I’m sure this’ll have a positive effect on my life in general.
So it’s a big opportunity for me, and I’m really looking forward to it!
