Should
higher
education
be
an
elite
education? Should
higher
education
be
available
to
all
students or only to good
students? Please state your opinions.
A: Hi, Good morning! Do you know the
big news yesterday? About that famous university!
B: Yes. The news reports that in this
year that university's new enrollment application
is
still very strict, the competition
is fierce.
C:
En,
it
is
very
strict
every
year,
and
entering
this
university
is
the
dream
of
many
students.
D: Well, I always
have a question: Should higher education be an
elite education? And what
do you think?
A: In my view, the answer is no. I
think higher education should be a mass education.
That
is to say, the higher education
should be available to all students or only to
good students.
The higher education
shouldn
’
t be an elite
education.
B
：
Yeah
，
as I know, some
scholars believe
that the
development
of higher education
go
through
the
three stages. If the gross enrollment rate of
higher education is below 15%, it is the
elite stage of higher education.
C:
I
agree
with
you.
Higher
education
is
more
extensive
than
the
elite
education,
and
the
elite
education is only a form and a stage of
higher education.I've seen this theory too. He
also
said that if the enrollment rate
of it is from15% to 50%,it belongs to the mass
stage of the
higher education,and if
more than 50%,that is the popularization stage of
higher education.
D:
From
this
definition,
the
elite
education
is
just
a
particular
concept
of
the
higher
education
theory, rather than its entirety. As we
all know, higher education is the further
education
after the middle school. This
learning will undoubtedly improve the knowledge
level and the
overall quality of
learners. What is your opinion about this?
A: I think what you said are very clear
and reasonable. I also agree with him very much.
So
the higher education should
be available to
all students
or
only to good
students.
Therefore,
the
popularization
of
higher
education
will
help
to
stimulate
students'
enthusiasm
for
learning,
and promote the
cultural development of the whole society.
B:That's right. The elite education is
just one stage,and if higher education is limited
in
the elite education, it will
certainly lead to the troubles and problems. It
advocates false
self-worth,
makes
the
students
be
far
away
from
the
real human
nature,
and
be
into
the
superficial temptation.
C:It is true. There are many problems
in the elite education. In a way, it is not
conducive
to the real personal
development, but also to the whole brings a
bad,utilitarian
and
impetuous
ion
is
every
one
’
s
basic
right,
as
long
as
we
cherish
this
right,
we get more
knowledge.
4. Please give your comments
on the pros and cons of cosmetic surgery.
A:
In
recent
years,
more
and
more
people
choose
to
take
cosmetic
surgeries,
They
want
to
leave
others
an
impressive
ally
some
young
do
you
think
of
cosmetic
surgery?
B:
In today
’
s
society people have more and more pressures about
their jobs, families, life
positions
and so on. Someone think that if they have the
nature beauty, they will have more
opportunities. So many people like
going on a cosmetic surgery. They think the beauty
can be
bought. I agree with them. What
is your opinion about this?
A:
I do not like this.
Having a cosmetic surgery is very dangerous. If
the doctor not having
a god-technology.
If the surgery were happening an accident, you
were not having a cosmetic
surgery,
it
’
s a is your opinion
about the advantages of it?
B:
Cosmetic
surgery
made
girls
younger, energetic and girl wants to
be
beautiful. No one
doesn
’
t like the cosmetics.
Lipstick, Eye Shadow and many others. I agree
with people who want be beautiful to do
the cosmetic surgery. Because I think the beauty
in
today
’
s
society is becoming a very important competitive
factors. Do you agree with me?
A:
I think
a mistake during cosmetic surgery can
lead to irreversible damage to
one
’
s face and
body,
and
may
even
cause
death.
If
the
man-made
beauty
appears
everywhere,
we
will
see
everybody
is the same. The
same eyes ,same noses ,even same faces .It is so
awful.
B:
But
you
know
what,
as
the
wealthy
and
middle-class
segments
of
the
Chinese
population
expand
- and as celebrity
culture takes an even firmer hold - people are
becoming more conscious of
their looks
and are willing to go to great lengths to enhance
them.
A:
Our
appearance is a gift of parents. Everyone should
have his own personality .Beauty is
only skin-deep, virtue is more
important than appearance. So I think we should
not attempt to
change nature.
Another
thing
that
they
need
to
take
into
consideration
is
the
cost
of
cosmetic surgery. I also think cosmetic
surgery as a waste of money.
B:
OK, Everything
has
its
two
sides
.I
share
part of
your
view
on
the cosmetic
surgery .

When
choosing first names for their children, parents
may have different reasons. Please
illustrate the major reasons.
A. When choosing first names for
children, parents may have different reasons.
Today we will
talk about the major
reasons our parents may have. What is your
opinions about this ?
,I know there are
several ways parents choose the first name for
their child. The first
way is by family
history. Parents may choose a name because it is
passed from generation to
generation;
for example, the first born son might be named
after his father or grandfather.
Although family names are also passed
to daughters, it is usually as a middle name.
Adding
with
girls
’
names. The second way
parents choose a name is after a family member or
friend who
has
died
recently,
or
after
someone
admire,
like
a
well-known
leader
or
a
famous
musician.
Although most English first names mean
something, for example,
“
Ann
A.I agree
with you, but nowadays meaning is not the main
reason people select their baby's
name.
another way is to provide a
sounds very
Or they might choose a name that works
for either gender, like Taylor or Terry. Do you
agree
with me ?
I agree
with you . But sometimes I think Many parents
choose a name simply because they
like
it, or because it's fashionable or classic.
Fashions in names change just as they do in
clothes.
One
hundred
years
ago,
many
names
came
from
the
Bible
names
such
as
Daniel,
and
Anna,
and Hannah and
Matthew. Then fifty years ago, Biblical names went
out of fashion.
,Nowadays, names from
the Bible are becoming popular again. Similarly,
parents often
choose
classic
names,
names
that
were
popular
in
1900,
1950,
and
are
still
popular
now.
Classic
names for boys include Thomas, David,
Robert, and Michael. And for girls: Anna,
Elizabeth,
Emily, and Katherine, just
to name a few. They're classic. They never go out
of style.

Do you agree
with the saying that English is a global language?
Why or why not? Please
state your
reasons.
A:
Today
’
s topic is English as
a global language. I know many of us speak English
as a second
language, right? Today, I
want to ask you whether English is a global
language? What is your
opinion about
this ?
B: I think English is obviously
a global language. I believe English is the
language people
all over the world use
to communicate, and that it is gradually replacing
other languages.
What about you?
A: I think English is not truly a
global language because it is not the main
language spoken
by people worldwide.
And though many people speak some English
worldwide, English has not
replaced
other languages. I acknowledge that people use
English every day, for many reasons,
but this doesn't mean English is
replacing other languages, nor does it make
English the main
language spoken in the
world. Can you tell me some reasons why you hold
your opinion?
B. I agree with the
saying that English is a global language. First of
all, English is the
dominant language
of business, travel, and science. When people need
a common language, they
often use
English. Think about it. English is often used at
tourist information centers, in
international hotels. If you use a taxi
in Rome, and you can't speak Italian, the taxi
driver
is more likely to use English
than any other languages. It is use at business
meetings and
international sports
events. The European Union uses English, along
with French, at its
educational
settings
are
a
great
example.
In
fact,
most
people
who
use
the
Internet
know English. This helps support the
view that English is a global language. What about
you?
A.
I
don
’
t agree with the saying
that
English is a
global
language,
Idon't believe
English
has
replaced
other
languages.
Because
there
are
about
three
times
as
many
people
who
speak
Chinese
as
their
first
language
as
those
who
speak
English
as
a
first
language.
in
many
countries
where
some people use English for work each
day, they don't use English anywhere else. Even in
English-speaking
countries,
there
are
millions
of
people who
prefer to
speak a
language
other
than English at home, with friends, or
at work.
B:So,
I think it's
safe to say that
English will continue
to
be the main
language used
in
many
international settings because, as I
said earlier, people all over the world need a
common
language.
are
the
characteristics
of
a
phobia
（
< br>恐惧症
）
?
What
are
the
two
theories
about
the
causes
of
phobias? Please give a brief report of phobias.
A:Today we're going to talk about a
fairly common kind of psychological problem-a
you
probably
know,
a
phobia
is
a
fear,
so
do
you
have
phobias
or
fear?
What
are
the
characteristics about
it?
B: Phobia, as far as I know,
including places phobia, social phobia and
specific phobias, the
object of
specific phobia is usually a particular object or
scene, such as insects, blood,
or
injectionand
so
's
worth
noting
that,
a
phobia
is
not
a
normal
fear,
it
is
an
extreme
fear
―
a
very
strong
fear.
Psychologists
have
come
up
with
three
characteristics
of
a
phobia.
First, a phobia is not a rational
response. It's a very strong reaction, too strong
for the
situation. Second, a phobia
often lasts for a long time, for months or even
years or the
whole life. Third, the
reaction is too strong for a person to is your
opinion
about the causes of phobias?
A: I've seen a book said phobia is
learned, this means something happens that causes
someone,
or in a sense
afraid
of
dogs
if
he
was
attacked
and
injured
by
one
as
a
child.
Yeah,
I
have
seen
that
theory,
It
also
says
thatPeople
can
learn
to
have
phobias
by
watching
how
other
people
fact,
doctors find that
phobias tend to run in families. Whenever a child
and his mother were
together and saw a
dog, his mother would get very scared, very
nervous. When the child saw
how his
mother reacted, he would then gradually become
very scared, too.
B:There is another
theory says that a phobia is only a sign of a
deeper problem. This means
that
the
phobia
isn't
the
whole
problem.
For
example,
a
patient
was
very
afraid
of
the
dark,
but the real reason is
his father made him sit in a dark the room when he
did something bad
when he was young. Do
you have some ideas about how to treat the person?
A: According to the first theory, if a
phobia is learned, perhaps it can be unlearned, on
the other hand, the
doctor
’
s objective, or goal,
is to help the patient reveal the deeper
psychological problem, because it will
be easier to treat the phobia if the deeper
problem
is identified and worked on as
well.
B:As we discussed, phobia is a
kind of complex psychological and physiological
diseases, but
psychologists, like any
scientists, have to continue to do research, to
learn, and to test
treatments we
believe will be effective based on research.
Treatments improve the more we
learn.
