Describe a school friend you remember well.
You should say:
who this person was
what he/she looked like
how you became friends
and explain why you remember this person so well.
Sample Answer:
The school friend I remember well is Sara. She’s not only my school friend, but also my best friend. I've known her since we were in middle school.
She is of the same height with me, but thinner. With beautiful eyes and straight black hair, she’s really a pretty girl.
We became friends because we were born on exactly the same day and we happened to hold the birthday party at the same KFC when we were 14. That day, we became friends.
We’ve been friends for 7 years. I remember her so well because she is someone who is the exact personal mirror image of myself. We understand each other like soul mates. We were all young and rebellious and she understood my madness. She knows me better than I know myself at times, at the most critical times. She is who I want to call first when I feel I'm in crisis. Now, though we are in different cities, we still keep in touch with each by phone and email.

You should say:

My friends and I visited Laoshe Teahouse in Beijing last summer. It was our first time to visit such a famous place. We not only had nice tea but also enjoyed Chinese traditional art performances. It has been quite an impressive experience to me, and to my friends, too.
The teahouse is to the southwest of Tian’an Men Square. Its amazing Beijing style has attracted hundreds of visitors from home and abroad every day.
Before we decided to go, we had heard a lot about that place and we got very excited. We got even more excited when the performance was about to begin-audience from different parts of the world made the atmosphere hot. The performance began with a thrilling starting music. It was folk music played with Chinese traditional instruments. by Teahouse Music Band. The drum beats immediately dragged people’s attention. After starting music was Peking Opera Highlights with the name Presents from Magu. I didn’t quite follow its plot because I didn’t understand their singing. However, I like the music and the way it was presented. The most unforgettable show came when an artist from Sichuan started performing Face-Changing of Sichuan Opera. It was just like magic. He changed his face so quickly that no one could tell how he could manage that. This show gained much applause from the audience.
I am glad that I took my friends from the US to the Laoshe Teahouse that evening. We had wonderful time there. I like this kind of performance. It has become a special showcase of the essence of Chinese national culture, and a bridge connecting China with the rest of the world.

Artistic Performances:
1. Are traditional art forms performed very much in China?
In some small cities and towns, where popular modern art is less introduced into, traditional art forms are still playing an important role in entertaining local people. In big cities, like Beijing and Shanghai, traditional art forms are kept well and performed a lot in big and small theatres. I think people are getting more aware of protecting our own traditions, including traditional art performances. And this is why it’s now a fashion to go and watch a really good Beijing Opera show at a not so low price.
2. How does TV program help to spread traditional culture?
TV program helps greatly to spread traditional culture, definitely. For an obvious reason, people have easier access to a TV program than to a live show. Every one can afford it. So, with the help of TV show, more people would have the chance to be exposed to traditional culture.
3. What benefits do you think people derive from watching performances or visiting art exhibitions?
In my opinion, art is not a necessity in our life, like food and drink. But life cannot be without art. Sounds contradictory? Well, I mean, what people derive from watching performances or visiting art exhibitions is mental pleasure and satisfaction. People say art is the reflection of life. I agree. Suppose after a day of hard work, what will a piece of beautiful music bring to us? Comfort, relief, refreshment, and so many other mental enjoyment. Life is hard, but thanks to art, we become less depressed.
4. Do you think people generally prefer to go to a concert or to listen to recordings of music?
Generally, the majority would prefer to listen to recordings of music. It’s much easy to get and every one could afford the money and time. Besides, concert is concert. It’s live, and it’s one-time. You get there, you listen to it, and it’s over. Recordings can be listened to for many times. People choose to listen to their favorite recordings at any time, any place they like to.

what this business would be
how you would start/open this business
how you would run this business
and explain why you would like to run this kind of business.
What this business would be
I want to open a small business. It will be a place for kids to go after school, a kind of childchare centre in the neighborhood. My town desperately needs a place like this.
How you would start/open this business
Honestly, I have no idea how to go about it. But common sense tells me that he key to starting a successful business is to develop a business plan and then get financial support. But unlike other businesses, this caregiver business would be a non-profit organization. So I would contact some local non-profit organizations and talk with them to see if they can help me in any way.
How you would run this business
There will be food, video games, pinball, and a dance floor. I will also have tutors there to help with homework and stuff. The business would operate on a menbership scheme, I mean those who want to join have to register and pay a small fee first.
and explain why you would like to run this kind of business.
I would like to start this business because first of all, there’s great demand around my neighborhood. A typical school day in China normally ends at 4p.m. but the working hours for most parents is from 9 a.m. to 6 p.m. The centre will be a good place to the child to stay until their parents come to pick them up after work. Also I just love kids and seeing them grow. One of my friends works as a kindergarten teacher. She said that it was so much fun to work with children.They are cute, and very trusting....it is trulely a very promising and worthwhile career--very rewarding as well....
