1、1.Describe a sport you are good at: TennisI would like to talk about tennis, which is my best love among all the popular sports. Tennis is popular all over the world, especially loved by teenagers. There is a comic book named, Prince of Tennis, illustrated by a Japanese artist. The spread of this bo
2、ok made tennis more popular. The spirit of tennis is practice makes perfect, and we should never give up. When I was in sixth grade, I began to learn how to play tennis because I was a fan of the comic book. When I play tennis, I will devote myself to it. I have entered for many tennis competitions.
3、 I like winning so the procedure seems exciting. At that time, I was not good at sports. But after playing tennis, my PE grades became the best in my class. Because of tennis, I learned that I should never give up when I face difficulties. I still have lots more to work on. Tennis is my favorite out
4、door sport. 2.Movie-starstruckI recently watched a movie called Starstruck, which was a Disney movie, talking about how a famous pop star, Christopher, fell in love with an ordinary girl, Jessica. The movie was filmed in Los Angeles and was on in February 2010, not too old. I chose it because of the
5、 ranking, but when I actually watched it, I realized that it was a teens movie. However, I didnt regret watching it because I think I learned something from the movie. It is interesting because it sees celebrity life from another angle and tells us that we are blessed to be common people because the
6、re is more freedom for us to enjoy. In the film, it shows us how hard it might be when a person cant make his own choices and decisions. At that point, material wealth will not matter to them because they cant live their life the way they really want to.It helped me to reflect on my own life. Now I
7、see I should just enjoy my life because everyone has the right to enjoy his or her life no matter who he or she is. 3. A traditional story :Change and HouyiChange is the Chinese goddess of the moon. The lunar exploration-orbiting spacecraft Change 1 is named after her.According to legend, Change and
8、 her husband Houyi were immortals living in heaven. One day, the ten sons of the Jade Emperor transformed into ten suns, causing the earth to scorch. Having failed to order his sons to stop ruining the earth, the Jade Emperor summoned Houyi for help. Houyi, using his legendary archery skills, shot d
9、own nine of the sons, but spared one son to be the sun. The Jade Emperor was obviously not pleased with Houyis solution to save the earth: nine of his sons were dead. As punishment, the Jade Emperor banished Houyi and Change to live as mere mortals on earth.Seeing that Change felt extremely miserabl
10、e over her loss of immortality, Houyi decided to journey on a long, perilous quest to find the pill of immortality so that the couple could be immortals again. At the end of his quest he met the Queen Mother of the West who agreed to give him the pill, but warned him that each person would only need
11、 half the pill to become immortal.Houyi brought the pill home and stored it in a case. He warned Change not to open the case and then left home for a while. Change became too curious: she opened up the case and found the pill just as Houyi was returning home. She either accidentally or purposely swa
12、llowed the pill. She started to float into the sky because of the overdose. Change kept on floating until she landed on the moon.While she became lonely on the moon without her husband, she did have company，a jade rabbit. 4. A favorite subjectI think the most interesting subject in my high school is
13、 geography. I have a dream to travel around the world since I was a child. At that time, I would always wonder where exactly some famous cities were on the map, such as London, New York, so I am really interested in geography.I had a great geography teacher in my high school. She was knowledgeable,
14、hard-working and devoted to the students. I always felt very excited when I had geography classes because I couldnt wait to learn more about the world. Besides that, I also liked reading atlas and other books about geography during my spare time. I would always have good marks/grades on geography th
15、roughout my high school years. When I talk about geography with my classmates or even parents, I can always impress them with my knowledge. I still like geography and hope I can travel around the world in the future. 5. sports :JoggingNowadays many people spend too much time indoors working or study
16、ing, but outdoor activities are very important for us to keep healthy. I like many outdoor activities, especially jogging. I often jog in the park near my home on sunny days. I can listen to music and breathe the fresh air while I jog so I can feel really relaxed. When I jog in the park, I can also
17、see the green trees and beautiful flowers. I can feel close to the nature. Its also a good time for me to think important things in life. I feel its an important part of my daily life. Sometimes, I would ask my friends or parents to join me. Its also a good time to communicate with others. Its a sim
18、ple activity; you only need a pair of good sneakers. Its also suitable for many people, from children to old people. They can enjoy this activity. I think everybody should do some outdoor activities because its a great way to help us get close to the nature. Its not only good for our physical fitnes
19、s but also good for our mental health. 6. A ToyI want to describe a toy in my childhood. Actually, it was not a girly toy. It is a model car. When I was a kid, I acted like a boy and I was very interested in car models and guns. But my mother didnt know that and she bought many dolls for me. To tell
20、 you the truth, my father found that I liked model cars, so he bought me one as a little present. Its as big as a book and the color was very bright, it was red. I think the car was cool and I liked it very much. I would always take it out and study it. I figured out many functions of the car. I fel
21、t it was amazing that people could invent this tool for transportation. Since it was the gift that my father gave me, I kept it very carefully. Even now, it still looks like a brand new car. I think its very meaningful for a kid to own something that they like. 7. A practical skillId like to describ
22、e a skill I learned, which is to edit songs on computer by using the software, called cool edit. I love singing, so a skill to edit songs is very practical and important for me. I first heard about it when I was eleven years old. When I was surfing the internet, a net friend told me about this softw
23、are. I began to learn how to use at once by watching many online classes about it. Soon I can record my voice on the computer and after a lot of practice; I can edit many audio files perfectly. For example, I sang a song named “take me away”, after being edited, it sounds just like the original sing
24、ers singing. It is amazing, because I can even change a girls voice into a boys voice.I like to play with it in my spare time, so my skill has improved a lot. When I told my friends about it, all of them were really impressed. 8. A piece of equipment-airconditionerId like to talk about a piece of ad
25、vanced equipment in my home, an air conditioner. My parents bought it in a department store when I was sixteen years old to replace the old one. I think it is interesting to use this equipment, just like magic. Because when we use it, it can change hot air to cold air. When we are cold, we also get
26、warm by using it. I cant imagine what our life will be if we dont have it. Of course we dont use it all the time. Because when in spring or autumn, the weather is very comfortable, it isnt necessary to use it. If we use it all the time, it is not environmental friendly. Also, it is not good for our
27、health if we stay in an air-conditioned room for a long time. When I feel very hot or cold outside, I will miss my air conditioner. 9.A person who speaks a foreign languageId like to describe a foreign teacher of mine, Bob. He is tall and strong, with strong muscles. He is a typical Americanconfiden
28、t and humorous. He is a very attractive man. A lot of my classmates liked his class very much. I also chose his course in the second year of my university. At first, I didnt feel there was anything special about him. Later, I found that he really had the ability to make his class interesting because
29、 he was so funny and good at telling jokes. He was also creative. He had so many new ways for us to practice our English. After class, I like talking with him in both Chinese and English because he also learned some Chinese. Through communicating with him, I learned a lot about western culture. I ne
30、ed to thank him. Because of him, I feel that English is actually a fun subject to learn. My interest in English grew and now Im still interested in learning language. 10. A family but not yoursId like to talk about my uncles family. I think the life style in this family is very different from mine b
31、ecause as a big family, they can do many things together. Its very different from my family; they have three children, two boys and one girl. This is big family is always very lively. Im the only child, so sometimes I feel lonely. But in this family, you will always hear the laughter and everyone wi
32、ll be influenced by their cheerfulness. They always do some outdoor activities. For example, they would have picnic on weekends and go mountain climbing at the nearby places. They sometimes go far away places for long trips. I admire them because when I look at their pictures, I could see how happy
33、they are. Usually I think its a good thing to be the only child because I could have my parents full attention. However, sometimes, when I look at their family, I will feel it might be even better if I have brothers and sisters. 11. A friend you admireI want to talk about one of my playmates in my c
34、hildhood. Her name is Su. Shes very beautiful. She had long black hair and big eyes. She looked like a Barbie doll. However her personality was very different from her appearance. I like her because of her strong personality and her kindness to others. She never cried even when she hurt her knees ba
35、dly and would always help and comfort others just like a big sister. I always knew shes a strong girl, but later I realized that shes stronger than I thought. When we were in primary school, one day, my teacher asked her out and told her that her father died in a car accident. She came back to our c
36、lassroom to get her school bag without crying. When I went to her home to ensure she was ok, I saw her comforting her mother. She was like an adult, still without crying.Later she went to Canada and we havent seen each other for about five years. I can still her beautiful appearance and her strong p
37、ersonality. When I feel discouraged, I will always remember her and I can become strong because of her influence.12. A successful foreign personThere are many successful people in the world. Since Im a football fan, Id like to talk about David Beckham, a successful football player. A lot of people k
38、now him not because hes an excellent football player but because of his good looking. Especially a lot of women, they regard him as a big sport star. But thats not the reason I admire him. I think hes a successful man because he works hard and never gives up. As a young player, he was blamed for his
39、 mistake that caused the failure of his national team in the 1998 world cup. A lot of people laughed at him, but he was not defeated and tried harder than before. In 2001, his score helped his national team to win the game against Greece, which enabled them to enter world cup in the next year. He be
40、came a national hero overnight. I learned a lot from him. Sometimes, we might fail once or several times but it doesnt mean we will never succeed. Its always good to keep trying. I believe hard work will eventually make a big difference. 13.a quiz show: One Versus One HundredI only watch TV occasion
41、ally, but there are still many TV programs that I like. I recently watched a program called 1 versus 100, which is a quiz show presented on Hunan TV channel. We can easily tell the nature of the program by hearing the name. There will be one challenger versus one hundred opponents at each show. Both
42、 the one and the one hundred will be given the same multiple-choice questions. One question is asked at a time, and the one hundred answer first, then it will be the ones turn. Since the one is alone, during the show he/she is allowed to ask for help three times, including making a phone call, follo
43、wing the majority, or asking the presenter to eliminate one wrong answer. Each time, some of the one hundred will be eliminated if they get the answer wrong. In the end, if the one answers all the questions correctly, the one will win the game and get a big amount of money as the prize. However, if
44、the one fails, the money will be divided by the remaining opponents. Maybe because of the big prize or the competitive atmosphere, the participants are always very excited. The reason I like it is that this quiz show asks some simple questions that we are supposed to know but a lot of people actuall
45、y have never thought about them. For example, one question asked was about the picture on the back of a 50 yuan RMB, but the majority of the one hundred got this simple question wrong. I have seen several shows, but I have never seen the one answered all the questions correctly. I began to wonder th
46、at maybe I could enter for the show, too, because I actually knew the answers of a lot of their questions. I think it will be fun if I can try. 14. AdvertisementI want to tell you an advertisement about a health product called Naobaijin. Its such a famous advertisement that almost everybody in China
47、 can recite the lines of the advertisement. The advertisement is very simple. An old couple tell us that they dont need any gift for the spring festival but naobaijin. It has been showed on TV year after year, especially during the Spring Festival. In China, young people are supposed to buy presents
48、 for the older generation during Chinese New Year, but they usually dont have many good choices except cigarette and wine. These are not good for their health. Because Naobaijin is a very healthy gift for older people, so it becomes popular. You would see it everywhere from newspapers to internet. A
49、 lot of people might feel tired of it, but I think it is a successful advertisement although it is not creative. Its simple to remember so everybody knows this product now. It has drawn our attentions successfully and brought fortune to the manufacturer. 15:Hotpot RestaurantId like to talk about a hotpot restaurant, called super hot, in my hometown. I like hotpot very much. My friend told me about the restaurant, so I went there with my sister.The food there is very delicious. After eating there many times, I recommended it to m
