P1Do you like flying?
Which do you prefer? Travelling by train or Travelling by air?
How does flying compare to other forms of transport?
Do you think aircraft will be used more in the future?
What are the benefits of travelling by air?
喜欢坐飞机的——为什么喜欢？
It shows the status! same reason people travel first class rather than economy class. 坐飞机有面子——体现身份。就好像有些人坐飞机也专坐头等舱不坐经济舱一样。
I can get tiny drinks and bag of salty nuts. 坐飞机能喝饮料，吃咸花生。
I love the flight attendants...actually i love the uniform. But the nurses uniform doesnt always live up to expectation and have you ever seen a fat air stewardess? 因为喜欢看空姐。说白了就是喜欢制服。虽然护士也穿制服，但和空姐最大的区别是：护士有时候经常让你失望。因为经常能看见肥护士而肥空姐几乎没有。
I arrive quickly at my destination and staff treat customers very well with frequent drinks and meals. They also bow to the passengers in the waiting area as they pass to go behind the desk. 坐飞机到达目的地快，而且服务人员服务周到，要吃有吃，要喝有喝。最关键的是，他们还给乘客鞠躬。
My favorite part is taking off, i love engine sounds, i love the view down below.. 我最喜欢的就是飞机起飞的时候，我喜欢引擎的声音，我喜欢在空中看下面的风景。
Yeah I love the excitment of it! So much fun! But I get so nervous cause sometimes my ears don't pop for a few days. 我喜欢坐飞机时候的兴奋。但有时候坐完飞机耳朵经常像塞住一样很多天都不舒服。
讨厌坐飞机的——为什么讨厌？
It's okay to fly but it is a pain on very long flights or when there is bad turbulence. 坐飞机还好，关键是飞太久挺烦人的，或者遇上气流。
I'm sure my bloodpressure is elevated. God forbid if there's turbulence. 坐飞机我就血压高。上帝保佑别遇到气流。
I hate flying. I freak out at the slightest bit of turbulence. Xanax really, really helped me. 我讨厌坐飞机。一点点气流就让我害怕。吃Xanax（一种安眠药）能管很大用。
I hate flying, it's too claustrophobic(abnormally afraid of closed-in places). 我讨厌坐飞机，太容易引起我的幽闭恐惧症了。（幽闭恐惧：害怕在密闭的空间内）
It's true that flying is a safer than driving, statistically; however, your chances of surviving a car crash are much higher than a plane crash. Thus, the stress of having zero control over the plane is often too much to handle. 数据上体现，坐飞机确实比开车安全（出现事故次数少），可我们从车祸中幸存的几率却大大高于空难。我们根本没法去控制飞机。
I have acrophobia, fear of heights. So I hate flying on plane. 我有恐高症，怕高。
喜欢坐火车的——为什么喜欢？
I much prefer to travel by rail. I most often travel by air which does at best get me there when I need to, but at great cost of effort, fatigue, stress and general irritation. I never feel this way traveling by rail when new New Oriental arranged a business trip for me, even though there are delays at times. 我喜欢坐火车，因为坐飞机花费高，费体力，有压力，受刺激。可每次新东方给我安排坐火车去出差，却没这坐飞机那种感觉，虽然火车有时候会晚点。
There are lengthy and unwarranted delays encountered in air travel. But at least by rail their is time to relax, and enjoy the scenery. 坐飞机有时候会有长时间的、无法保证的晚点。坐火车至少能休息，看风景。
Train allows one to make the most of your time, whether for relaxing, chatting, meeting new people or working. I think JK Rowling wrote the first Harry Potter in trains. 火车上人们可以充分利用时间，甭管是放松、聊天、认识新朋友还是工作。JK罗琳的第一部哈里波特不就是在火车上写的么。
坐飞机坐哪个位置比较好？
First class preferably but if I can't get an upgrade then I go for aisle seat or emergency exit seat. 更喜欢
头等舱，但如果不能免费升仓、那我就坐邻通道或者紧急出口的座位。
front-- cuz you can get off the plane faster. 我坐飞机前部，能先下。
isle front..because then u dont' get stuck waiting for everyone else to grab their stuff and get out. 飞机前部靠通道！这样不用被那些拿行李的人挡住去路动弹不了。
I prefer first class its so roomy and comfy plus u get better drink and food choises. 头等舱。又宽敞又舒服，而且饮料更好，吃的也丰富。
I prefer to sit by the wing, which is the safest place experts say. 我喜欢坐中间机翼的位置，专家说坐这位置最安全。

I used to have serious toothache. And just because of my decayed tooth, my mom completely prohibited me from taking any sugar. At that time I really envied my classmate who can eat lollipops or chocolates. One day after class my best friend gave me a candy which was said to be of power and magic. Cause my mom came to pick me up soon, I had no time to taste it. So I had to hide it inside my fist and in the end I selected to taste it when I went to bed. I never know the meaning of its name, the Little Devil. The next day morning, when I brushed my tooth, I was suddenly shocked for my tongue was totally green.

其它素材taking fluoride tablets（吃氟化药片）
I remember this fondly（天真地）: When I was in kindergarten I remember having to take fluoride tablets. I hated them! So when our teacher gave them to us to take I hid mine in the kid's desk next to me. I did this for quite a long time until the kid found a bunch of（一堆）the tablets in his desk and told the teacher. He was accused of（因为……被批评）not taking his fluoride. Poor kid. The teachers eventually found out it was me.
I don't remember them saying anything to me but they told my parents in a parent/teacher conference（家长会）. My parents asked me about it and of course I denied it as the little kid I was. After that when we had to take our fluoride the teachers gave it to us and watched us one by one take our fluoride and then made us open our mouths to prove that we chewed (咀嚼)it up and swallowed（吞咽）. I laugh when I think about it today.

The Frog in the Shallow Well 井底之蛙
It said to a turtle that lived in the East Sea, "I am so happy! When I go out, I jump about on the railing（井栏）beside the mouth of the well（井口）. When I come home, I rest in the holes on the broken wall of the well. If I jump into the water, it comes up to my armpits (腋窝)and holds up my cheeks. If I walk in the mud, it covers up my feet. I look around at the wriggly worms, crabs and tadpoles（虾蟹蝌蚪）, and none of them can compare with me. Moreover, I am lord of this trough（井的主人）of water and I stand up tall in this shallow well. My happiness is full. My dear sir, why don't you come often and look around my place?"
Before the turtle from the East Sea could get its left foot in the well, its right knee got stuck. It hesitated and retreated. The turtle told the frog
"Even a distance of a thousand cannot give you an idea of the sea's width; even a height of a thousand cannot give you an idea of its depth. 海的广大，哪止千里；海的深度，哪只千来丈
In the old times, there were floods nine years out of ten, but the waters in the sea did not increase. There were droughts seven years out of eight, but the waters in the sea did not decrease. The sea does not change along with the passage of time(时间的流逝) and its level does not rise or fall according to the amount of rain that falls. The greatest happiness is to live in the East Sea."海水深浅完全不受洪涝影响
After listening to these words, the frog of the shallow well was shocked into realization of his own insignificance and became very ill at ease.听完这些，青蛙发现自己很肤浅

What is Family? How do you define a family?
?People who care and love each other with a heart filled with respect .
?I would define my Family as a breath of fresh air!
?People who you hate most of the time, but are forced to love unconditionally :)
?Bunch of people who will make you sometimes happy, sometimes sad but are always there when you need them, when you are going through good times and bad.
?The ones that are there for you all your life through good and bad. they love and care for you even if you are the most hated person in the world, and always have a shoulder to lean on.
Some words to describe Family !
fun, loving, caring, compassionate, thoughtful, wonderful
exciting, joyful, protective,loving, functional
togetherness, lovable, trustworthy, funny, adventuress,
spontanious, fun filled, halarious, god's angelsm,comforting
Say something about your Family!
?My maternal grandfather'sancestor came from...
?My family is big and hectic, but we're always there for each other. definately protective.
?Unconventional, free-spirited, slightly bonkers, and occasionally irritating. But compassionate, well-meaning and generally pretty great.
?We're not wealthy in assets, but we are richest in unity and support.
?Mostly we just get together for major family events.
?My immediately family is kind of large and I would not consider us close, though many outsiders do. I guess we are at least rather involved in each other's lives for people to say that. However, each of us is an individual and independent of the others, so that's what makes me say that we are not close. We get along, in general, though. That is the important thing.
?And even within the immediate family, we're not especaily close, we just kind of sit around and have meaningless conversations, and the closest we ever come to actual 'family time' anymore is maybe sitting down to play a few argument-filled hands of Gin Rummy.

Describe an enjoyable public event that you went to
You should say:
?what the event was
?when you went there
?who you went there with
and explain why you enjoyed this event.
I visited New York City with my family in 2009 and joined the city‘s annual HalloweenParade down the 6th Avenue. It was quite a spectacle. People got all gussied up for the spookiest of the holidays. In fact, there were two ways one can enjoy the event, either as a participant or as an onlooker. If you dressed up in a costume, you can participate in the parade and march down the route. Unfortunately, I didn‘t have any costume, I could only watch. As an onlooker, I stood among the packed crowd behind the policebarricades. Some eager fellow on-lookers climbed up trees for a better view. A few even jumped over the barricades when the police turned round. Creepy ghouls and giantpuppets were marching down the street and everyone was cheering. It was so fun and we enjoyed a great deal. Looking back, among all other public events that I went to, this one left the deepest impression. I think the reasons are two folds. One, we did not have this kind of festivity here in China. It felt so strange to a Chinese guy to watch people dressed as corpses and monsters and even toilets and at the same time enjoy themselves. To the more conservative Chinese minds, the party seemed to be the greatest "cultural shock". Second, I was amazed by the creative designs of the costume. I also felt the worry-free fun and happiness from the people all around me. I will never forget the New Yorkers‘ creativity and the ―in the moment‖ attitude. Maybe this is why New York City is so great.
1. annual (adj.): happening once a year 一年一度的
2. parade (n.): a line of people moving along so that other people can watch them 游行
3. spectacle (n.): a very impressive show or scene 景象、壮观
It was quite a spectacle. (or: It was quite an event) 场面很是壮观啊！
4. get gussied up: 精心打扮
5. spooky (adj.): strange or frightening in a way that makes you think of ghosts. 幽灵般的
6. onlooker (n.): 观众
7. packed (adj.): extremely full of people. 拥挤的
8. barricade (n.)：路障
9. creepy ghoul：令人毛骨悚然的鬼怪
10. puppet (n.): 木偶、人偶、玩偶
11. festivity (n.): 庆祝
12. corpse (n.): the dead body of a person. 尸体
13. conservative (adj.): 保守的
14. worry-free fun (n.): 无忧无虑的快乐
15. ―in the moment‖ attitude: 及时行乐的态度
1. Do you (usually) wear a watch (a wrist watch)? (Why?)
?不戴表的，用手机！No I have my mobile with me, it‘s got a nice watch in i t.
?戴表的！I know some people say that with mobile phones, the wrist watch is out-dated. I disagree. A quick glimpse at your watch during a meeting or on the production line is a lot better then pulling out your cell phone. I find a watch to still be the most convenient method of time keeping.
?戴表的，还戴得挺讲究！Yes, and I prefer to wear it on the inside of my wrist. I tend to scratch and otherwise damage watches that I wear on the outside. Wearing them on the inside prevents that.
2. What do you use your watch for?
?用来计时的！I use it mainly for timing the speed.
?用来装饰的！It‘s a kind of ornament for me, actually. Wearing a watch has become more of a fashion
statement.
?看时间的。For me, it is always about knowing what time it is...as a reporter, I need to keep track of time...but I do care about style...and have always, since I began wearing a watch at about age eight, chosen styles I like, without regard to what is "in style"...
?又看时间又讲究装饰的。Part fashion, part convenience for me. I have a Baby-G and it's digital. It's waterproofbecause I don't want to take it off when I shower or go swimming. It also lights up so I can read it at night. It's in a cute style.
3. Do you think time is very important? (Why?)
?时间是金钱！Time is money. Actually, time is more valuable than money. The money we have lost can be gained again, but the time we have wasted cannot be regained.
?不要浪费时间！Despite being so valuable, time is often neglected by people. Since time is an invisible thing, people often waste their time unconsciously（无意地）. Without anything to do, they may gossip from morning till night.
?时间是宝贵的！Time is important. Time is valuable. Time is precious.
4. Are you ever late for anything?
?上班迟到的。Yes I had a few times late last week for work, but I didn‘t get into big trouble because most of the time I was early.
?上学迟到想找借口的。I was late to school about 10 times so far this semester, which is going to screw me out of college.I need to come up for some really good excuses.
?上学迟到想弥补的。I made some mistakes this year in attendance, I am trying to find out if there‘s anything I can do to bring my grade up.
5. Do you think it's important to be on time?
?绝对守时，迟到丢人！Yes. I always run on time and feel ashamedif I am late to anything. I am not obsessedbut feel that if you are invited somewhere you should show the host the respect of being there when invited.. It just seems these days that nobody is on time and running late is the norm.
?分场合迟到的！No. It has become expected to turn upto an informal event five minutes late, this is what most people do in America. However if punctuality is important for that event then it is considered extremely rude to turn up late.
?守时是美德，但聚会除外！Punctuality is a virtue. Oh, being late is RUDE, there is no doubt about it. EXCEPT when going to a party -- then it's expected that you arrive a few minutes late. In fact, the host probably WANTS you to arrive a bit late... I know when I'm hosting a party, I'm always running around like crazy doing last minute things (like getting dressed!) and if a guest actually arrives on time, I'm not ready! Be kind, arrive 5 or 10 minutes late...
6. Do you feel that time moves fast or slowly?
?时间随年龄增长变快！Age and size make a difference to whether time moves fast or slow. And thats not a matter of perception. The older you are, the faster times moves. Or, the faster you are, the slower time moves.
?时间比想象的过得快！Daily, I find myself looking back and not being able to remember what happened, or how an event got so far away. A half a year seemed like two seconds. Even when you think time will never pass...it passes faster than expected.
?人生苦短，及时享乐。life is short, its so true. But dont dwell on how much time has past or how fast the future is going to pass, just live you life. if you just live in the moment and have random spontaneous moments it will seem like your life is fuller even if it goes by in a flash.
?束手无策，用日记记录时间。I know exactly what you mean. Unfortunately we can't stop time, we can only make the most of it. Maybe try keeping a diary of what happens in your life if you are having trouble remembering what's happened. That way you can look back and reminisce on good times:)
7. When do you feel time moves slowly? (Why?)
?伤心孤独时度日如年！When I'm alone and/or depressed time moves slowly for me...very slowly.
When I'm with my girlfriend/family (sometimes-they can be a pain in the rear ya know?)/friends time moves fast.
?等待的时候度日如年！I guess it really depends if you are doing something you enjoy or not. Also if you are waiting for something, time will move slow. If you are having a good time and want to cherish that moment and have it last forever-time is slipping by faster then you can blink. Time is never in your favor.
?儿时等待长大，度日如年。When I was a child, I felt time moves slowly. Because as a child I had so little control over my own destiny, over my own life and i spent a great deal of time waiting for growing up.
8. If you could go back in time, would would you do?
?不受欺负型！I would not let that boy from school bully mein my youth...i would also crush my self esteem and make it impossible for me to feel love or make new friends for fear of never being good enough..
?改变历史型！That's an interesting question. Maybe I would go back and try to change something in history. Or, maybe I'd go back to my history.
?不想回到过去型！Even if there was a such device...things would change in a paralel universto ours...The past is history , future is a mistery...that is why we are living in the present.
?戒烟戒酒型！I would stay away from alcohol. its my best friend and worst enemy.
?超级自恋型！I would go back, give my teen self a hug and tell her that she is beautiful, unique and special and that one day she will meet a guy who will love her just the way she is so she should just keep being true to herself and not do dumb things in order to get people to like her.
?绝不后悔型！I would do the same thing all over again...im proud of what i have done and of my achievements....
?人生因果论！None. I wouldn't give myself any advice. I am one of those people that believes that everything happens for a reason.I would never want to change anything about my life. Life lessons are important, especially the ones that brought me pain.
Describe an important traditional event in your hometown.You should say:
what this event is.
when it happens.
who participates in this event, what they do.
and explain how you feel about this event.
What this event is
Well, one of the important traditional events in my hometown is Temple Fair, which is now amassgathering of entertainment and commerce.
When it happens
The Temple Fair in my hometown has a very long history, probably dating from Ming and Qing dynasties. And now it usually occurs from the first to the seventh day of the first month on the lunar calendar.
Who participates in this event and what they do
The Fair attracts a lot of people. Some are going to sell something, most of which are traditional arts and crafts, while others just go there for fun. There will be feature dragon and lion dances, waist drum dancing, as well as other folk performances, and even some staged traditional wedding ceremonies. Besides, you can taste numerous kinds of local snacks and dishes.Acrobaticsand other performers are on hand to keep the crowds entertained throughout the day.
and explain how you feel about this event.
For me, I like the Temple Fairs because there are so many games to play, food to eat and performances to appreciate. But what‘s more important, it is definitely a cultural experience, and allows one to see Chinese cultures from a very detailed perspective.
Temple Fair:庙会
mass: 大众的
commerce: 交流，交际。贸易，商业。
lunar calendar: 阴历
arts and crafts: 手工艺品
dragon and lion dances: 舞狮，舞龙。
waist drum dancing: 腰鼓舞蹈
folk performances: 民间表演
snacks: 小吃
Acrobatics: 杂技
on hand: 在场，即将发生。
perspective: 观点，看法。
Part 3
Traditions & Culture
Are young people as interested in traditional events as older people?年轻人像老人一样对传统活动感兴趣么？
Young people are only interested in events that are loaded with music and alcohol. Until they have children no one changes their lifestyles.年轻人只对与酒精、音乐相关的事情感兴趣。除非有了孩子以后，否则他们的生活方式是不可改变的。
What traditions in China are disappearing or are in danger of disappearing?
中国什么传统习俗正在消失或者有消失的危险？
I have to say many traditions are dying out, especially for those traditional crafts; most of them have been replaced by the modern industry.
很多习俗正在消失，特别是那些传统手工艺。它们中的大多数都被现代工业所取代了。
How can old traditions be kept alive (= continued)?传统习俗如何保留下来？
Traditions can be kept alive by keeping practicing and performing them. And they should not only be practiced, but taught to children. Passing them on from generation to generation is the most important part of human nature.传统习俗需要遵循，还需要去实践才能保留下来。不光是要实践，更要教给孩子们。把传统习俗传递给下一代是人们生活中最重要的部分。
Is Chinese culture being affected by foreign cultural influences?
中国文化被外国文化影响了么？
Kinda!! For instance, young people are celebrating Christmas every year, which is not a traditional Chinese festival. It‘s hard to say if it is bad or not but the fact is China is becoming a ?melting pot‘. Foreign people are just helping add to that ?melting pot‘.有点儿！！举个例子，年轻人每年都在过圣诞节，这不是中国传统的节日。很难说这是好是坏但是中国现在正在变成一个―大融炉‖，老外们正在帮忙往炉子里面填东西呢。（melting pot指各种族Describe a new or exciting thing that you did recently.
You should say:
what it was ①
when you did it②
who you did it with③
and explain why this activity was new or exciting for you.④
关于这个话题卡，考察的是事件题的描述，口述一次经历的能力。考生可以把最后的④作为主要部分进行描绘，而①②③均包含其中，前后简单交待即可。
Skydiving jump
Skydiving jump. It was the first adventurous activity ever in my life.
We made it last summer. It was a nice sunny day when we went to skydive. We took a 6 hour course and were ready to subdue the sky I went for it with my class mates. I was a little afraid before my first skydiving jump, but my class mates encouraged and convinced me to do it.
Crickey!!!! It was fantastic! I can‘t express all the feelings of free flight. It was the combination of happy, frightened, excited, and satisfied. All of these feelings happened at the same time. I could see the Earth below me as I flew like a bird with my parachute. I remember I was flying my body with my friends and was building different formations in the sky. Unfortunately I finally landed in the tree, but it was a smooth landing. I wasn‘t hurt at all.
That was a good lasting memory and all I can think about now is when I would be able to skydive again.
Part 3:
New & Exciting Activities
Some people think that it‘s good to experience new things, such as exploring new places. Do you agree?
Yes without a doubt. Life is boring if you never encounter or try new things. People will never know what's really out there unless you explore. I went to Egypt last summer, which was a totally new place to me. The civilization of Egypt did broaden my horizon.
What qualities does one need in order to be an explorer?
To be an explorer, one should be brave, cautious, friendly and open-minded. The ability to pick up local customs and language easily is also important.
Do you think young people can handle new experiences and new activities better than old people?
I will say Yes, for the most parts. Seniors usually prefer comfort and to dwell in what they have built for themselves, including daily routine. That‘s what we called: falling into a rut. Young people like to keep on trying and learning new things as they can adapt well.同化的国家）
Describe an interesting animal.
You should say:
what animal it is①

what it looks like③
and explain your feelings about this animal.④
The Beauty ---- Mandarin ducks
I happened to meet the Mandarin Ducks over the years in the wild area of Ampere Garden, in ponds along the big drainage. And, I'm 100% sure they were not normal Ducks. It was 'in the wild' and free to fly off whenever it wanted to!
The male mandarin duck is way more colorful, his breast is purple with two vertical white bars and the flanks ruddy, with two orange ―sails‖ at the back. The female is similar to female Wood Duck, all dark green brown.Male Mandarin ducks are considered by many to be the most beautifully colored of all waterfowl.
In China, the mandarin duck is associated as a Chinese weddings symbol, because it symbolizes wedded blissand fidelity.A Chinese proverb for loving couples uses the Mandarin Duck as a metaphor: ―Two mandarin ducks playing in water‖. Mandarin ducks are always depictedin a pair –it is said that if the ducks were separated, they would pine for each other and die of loneliness.Dying of loneliness for love might only be a
romantic myth and a cheerful reflection of people's attitude to reality.
Anyway, I love these lovely creatures; I wish I could raise one.
drainage: (河流的)流域, 排水区
vertical: 纵向的
ruddy: 红色的
waterfowl: 水鸟，水禽
wedded bliss: 婚姻美满
fidelity: 忠贞
depict: 描绘
myth: 神话
备选内容:
where it lives (or, you have seen it)②
?Not at a zoo. This little beauty (and its mate) had unexpectedly flown into a countryside park that I happened to be visiting ~
what it looks like③
?The adult male is a striking and unmistakable bird.
?Mandarin duck is known as a perching duck and prefers more of a wooded atmosphere, but it also must have a pond along with that.
and explain your feelings about this animal.④
?Mandarin Ducks form a strong attachment to their partners; hence, they are also an emblem of conjugal fidelity. A pair of Mandarin Ducks is excellent symbols for keeping love alive.
?Mandarin Ducks, which are referred to by the Chinese as Yuan-yang (simplified Chinese: 鸳鸯;
traditional Chinese: 鸳鸯; pinyin: yuān yāng), are frequently featured in Oriental art and are regarded as a symbol of conjugal affection and fidelity.
?Love at first sight –these mandarin ducks are seen to be deeply absorbed in each other, emitting a feeling of intense and true love. Mandarin ducks are potent symbols of love, affection, fidelity and devotion.
This translates to loving couples and marital bliss. But in reality, though, the ducks find new partners each year.
?Mandarin Ducks are very popular symbols of love and fidelity. They are always seen in pairs, signifying loving couples and marital bliss. The transmitted loving energy is said to be able to create a happy and harmonious marriage.
Describe a theatre or music hall that you have seen or been to
You should say:

But the nurses uniform doesnt always live up to expectation and have you ever seen a fat air stewardess? 因为喜欢看空姐。说白了就是喜欢制服。虽然护士也穿制服，但和空姐最大的区别是：护士有时候经常让你失望。因为经常能看见肥护士而肥空姐几乎没有。 I arrive quickly at my destination and staff treat customers very well with frequent drinks and meals. They also bow to the passengers in the waiting area as they pass to go behind the desk. 坐飞机到达目的地快，而且服务人员服务周到，要吃有吃，要喝有喝。最关键的是，他们还给乘客鞠躬。 My favorite part is taking off, i love engine sounds, i love the view down below.. 我最喜欢的就是飞机起飞的时候，我喜欢引擎的声音，我喜欢在空中看下面的风景。 Yeah I love the excitment of it! So much fun! But I get so nervous cause sometimes my ears don't pop for a few days. 我喜欢坐飞机时候的兴奋。但有时候坐完飞机耳朵经常像塞住一样很多天都不舒服。 讨厌坐飞机的——为什么讨厌？ It's okay to fly but it is a pain on very long flights or when there is bad turbulence. 坐飞机还好，关键是飞太久挺烦人的，或者遇上气流。 I'm sure my bloodpressure is elevated. God forbid if there's turbulence. 坐飞机我就血压高。上帝保佑别遇到气流。 I hate flying. I freak out at the slightest bit of turbulence. Xanax really, really helped me. 我讨厌坐飞机。一点点气流就让我害怕。吃Xanax（一种安眠药）能管很大用。 I hate flying, it's too claustrophobic(abnormally afraid of closed-in places). 我讨厌坐飞机，太容易引起我的幽闭恐惧症了。（幽闭恐惧：害怕在密闭的空间内） It's true that flying is a safer than driving, statistically; however, your chances of surviving a car crash are much higher than a plane crash. Thus, the stress of having zero control over the plane is often too much to handle. 数据上体现，坐飞机确实比开车安全（出现事故次数少），可我们从车祸中幸存的几率却大大高于空难。我们根本没法去控制飞机。 I have acrophobia, fear of heights. So I hate flying on plane. 我有恐高症，怕高。 喜欢坐火车的——为什么喜欢？ I much prefer to travel by rail. I most often travel by air which does at best get me there when I need to, but at great cost of effort, fatigue, stress and general irritation. I never feel this way traveling by rail when new New Oriental arranged a business trip for me, even though there are delays at times. 我喜欢坐火车，因为坐飞机花费高，费体力，有压力，受刺激。可每次新东方给我安排坐火车去出差，却没这坐飞机那种感觉，虽然火车有时候会晚点。 There are lengthy and unwarranted delays encountered in air travel. But at least by rail their is time to relax, and enjoy the scenery. 坐飞机有时候会有长时间的、无法保证的晚点。坐火车至少能休息，看风景。 Train allows one to make the most of your time, whether for relaxing, chatting, meeting new people or working. I think JK Rowling wrote the first Harry Potter in trains. 火车上人们可以充分利用时间，甭管是放松、聊天、认识新朋友还是工作。JK罗琳的第一部哈里波特不就是在火车上写的么。 坐飞机坐哪个位置比较好？ First class preferably but if I can't get an upgrade then I go for aisle seat or emergency exit seat. 更喜欢

. A person u admire A successful people The most important moment you late for Advertisement A gift you gave to others A lux stuff you wanna buy One thing you missed before Music A suggestion Collections A happy event I knew Beyonce since the year 2005 when I was a sophomore. The first time I saw her music video, I was totally blown away by her powerful vocal, vigorous, perfectly executed dance moves! Beyonce has numerous hits such as "Déjà Vu", "Irreplaceable" "Beautiful Liar Single Ladies, Crazy in Love etc. Beyonce’s music is ge nerally contemporary R&B, but she also incorporates pop, funk, hip hop, and soul genres into her work. BEE possesses a wide vocal range that spans more than three octaves. No one— not R. Kelly, not Usher, to say nothing of her rival pop divas—can match Beyoncé's genius for dragging her vocal lines against a hip-hop beat. Even when she's coasting, she soars above her imitators. It's all in her voice—a superhuman instrument capable of punctuating any beat with goose-bump-inducing whispers or full-bore diva-roars. Smitten, scorned, amorous, antagonistic—Beyoncé sings from all of these vantage points with undeniable virtuosity. In the year 2009, Beyonce started her second world tou r ―I am Sasha Fierce…‖, I got the chance to watch her concert in Beijing. It was one of the unforgotten moments I have ever had in my life. She was sexy, seductive and provocative when performing on stage as the music videos, showcased her powerful vocals without missing a note, often while engaged in vigorous, perfectly executed dance moves. The concert was like a super big party, over 15,000 people in the stadium. People were singing, screaming and dancing all the time. Beyonce brought her all-female tour band Suga Mama, which includes bassists, drummers, guitarists, horn players and keyboardists, which is one of the reasons I admire her so much. She brings her band every single time when she performs, even just sing a solo and she say thank you to her band on the stage every single time after the performance. She is so talented and humble. She certainly proved that she is one of the most exciting and talented performers around and may well go down in history as such. All her success comes from not only talent and hard-working. Her hard-working is well-known. This is another major reason that I like her. I am always encouraged and inspired by watching her music videos and listening to her songs. She is a legend. 2.
