I owe this good result to good preparation, the teachers' advice and a bit of luck. I was the last one of the total 3 days' oral test, so I have two days and a half to prepare. I stayed in front of the computer and writing and murmuring answers to the questions that previous candidates posted. so almost all the questions the examinar asked had been prepared by me.
She was tired, after two and a half days' speaking, and spoke very fast and interrupted almost every response i gave. I spoke fast,too, because i have prepared for all the answers. So it seems the whole test only took 10 minutes also. It does seem pretty short after i have recalled all the course of the conversation.
What’s your name?
My full name is Zhen Fang Ling. If you don’t mind, you can also call me Lynn.
(This is a bit like reciting, and I rushed to say the second sentence, because she was going to interrupt me when I just finished the first sentence.)
Are you a student or are you working?
I am working as a teacher.(“as a teacher” was almost stopped by her interruption, but she seemed impressed when hearing it.)
Have you thought of a change?
No…
Why not?
I enjoyed my work. Although I have taught English for 10 years,11 years actually, my work changed from year to year. I first taught 11 year-olds and then 14 year-olds and now 16 or 17 year-olds. I experience different things every year and I am never bored.
Any interesting people you met in your work?
Oh, yes. The students are interesting, young people, energetic and creative. I enjoy interacting with them and learn a lot from them. Also, because my school is expanding, we have new teachers coming every year from all over the country, including foreign teachers(er,foreign teachers are not from the country). I like to meet new people and exchange ideas and know different lives and cultures.
Now let’s talk about photographs. Do Chinese people like to take photographs?
Yes, as more and more people are going traveling, they take pictures of places they visit and keep them for memory…(interrupted)
What kind of photographs do you like?
You mean photos taken by professional photographers?
Yes.
Well, I like photographs of people. I like to read the expression, (er..and)the emotion of the people on the picture and know their lives….(interrupted)
Do you prefer to buy picture postcards or take photos?
Sorry?
Do you like to buy picture postcards or take photos?
Hm?[FONT=宋体]([/FONT]confused by the picture and photos, think it means the difference between picture and photos[FONT=宋体])[/FONT]
Do you prefer to buy picture postcards or take photos when you visit places?
Oh, I see, one is to buy and the other is to take by myself?
Yes.
I do both.(er.forgot to say thank you) When I am traveling, and I see beautiful scenery, I take photos. However, when I see pictures taken by professional photographers on sale in the shops, I find mine are not as good as them, I will buy some and post them to my friends…(interrupted)
Let’s talk about food. Who cook in your family?
I am considered to be lucky, because I live with my parents-in-law. And in China, it’s common that older generation, retired people prepare food for the family….(interrupted)
Do you think it’s important for the family to eat together?
Oh, yes, I do. Eating together provide an opportunity for the family members to exchange ideas and share each other’s experience. It helps to strengthen the relationship between family members and keep the family close…(interrupted)
What kind of food is popular in your culture?
Ah... My culture is a diverse one. We have different food in different places, different provinces. For example, I am Cantonese, I like Cantonese food. However, people from Hunan think Cantonese food is tasteless. They prefer Hunan food, spicy food. So it is difficult to choose one particular food that is popular in the whole country.
Now I will give you a topic. You will talk about it for one to two minutes. So don’t worry if I stop you. You will have one minute to prepare for it. You can make notes if you like.
Here is the card.
Thanks.
Recently I saw a movie on line. It’s called Saving face, directed by a Chinese-American director called ….Alex Wu, cast by(er. Casting)a group of Chinese-American actors and actresses, including one of my favorite actresses Joan Chen, who immigrated to the United States in the 1980s. That mean when I was a little kid, I saw movies of hers. This movie is about a Chinese mother and an American daughter, who has grown up with her grandparents in the United States. It shows how the mother gets along with her daughter, how to cope with her new American life and how she handles her own emotional problems. At the end of the movie, the mother and the daughter finally understand each other. The mother accepted the fact that her daughter is lesbian. And the daughter also encourages her mother to accept a marriage with(to) a young manshe married a man who is almost 20 years younger than her. This movie shows….(interrupted)
Do you want to see the movie again?
No, I don’t think so, because I saw the movie on line, and I was able to repeat it again and again. I think I have known the movie enough and there is no need to….
Have you told anybody about the film?
No…oh yes, I talked about it to a friend of mine when we were chatting on line…
What is the status of film making in your country?
Oh, it is becoming increasingly important. There is a big market for it in the country and many companies are investing in the film industry…(interrupted)
What is the status of actresses and actors in your country?
Well…opinions vary. Young people admire movie stars, the glamour, trend, fashion..They see them as heroes. However, older people have negative opinions towards them. To them, many movie stars have problems. Some of them have drug problems, divorces….they don’t like them at all….(interrupted)
How do movies influence people?
The content, the content of a movie have influences on people. For example, if a movie is about how people persevere to succeed. Young people may be inspired and motivated to seek success after they see it….(interrupted)
How do you see the educational value in films and that in reading?
Well, you think when you read, so . However, when you see a movie, movies are full of plots, some are really exciting. You can’t really think when you watch them. You might think after you watch the movie, but not during watching it. So I think reading has more educational value than seeing films.
How does seeing films help with learning languages?
Oh, it helps a lot in learning languages, because learning a language is a process of imitating.. When students are seeing a film, he is imitating the expressions, the pronunciation and the vocaburary. Most important of all, they enjoy it! I use that a lot in my class....
Isn’t it a bit passive?
Oh, yeah,it is a bit. That’s why we don’t do that often in ….ah serious class time. We do that at weekends when students are relaxing…(interrupted)
How do you plan a lesson with films?
I will…First, I will tell them that we are going to show a movie and then ask them to guess what the content is .Then we show the movie, after seeing it, we’ll discuss about it to see who has guessed right. And if we have more time for it, we usually pick one scene for the students to act. Or sometimes we pick several scenes and different groups of students act them. We put them together and we have a movie of our own…
