　　可谈自己感兴趣的业余活动，以说明自己兴趣广泛。
 
　　Possible answer，
 
　　Yes， I am aware that the best time to travel is while I am a student， so I worked my way around the country during vacations， doing part- time jobs here and there. I met all sorts of different people and it was really a good experience. Of course， there were good parts and bad parts， but looking back I think it benefited me a lot and helped me grow up.
 
　　有，我意识到旅行的最好时光在学生时代，所以假期中我在各地工读，到处兼职。我遇到各种各样的人，那真是一段好经历。当然，这样有好有坏，但是回想起来，又觉得那使我获益很多，并帮助我成长。
 
　　Well， I joined the judo club in the first year of my senior high school life.During the three years I guess I spelt more time and energy on judo than on anything else The practices were really hard， and I don't know how many times I thought about quitting. But Looking back on it， the memories are all good.During the practices1'd think， "Why am I doing this?" But afterwards I felt really good I made a lot of friends through the club activities， too.
 
　　噢，我在高中一年级时加人柔道社，我想三年来我在柔道社花的时间与精力，要比其他任何事情多。练习真的很辛苦，而且不晓得有多少次想放弃，但是回想起来，这些回忆都是好的。练习的时候我会想"我为什么要这样?"但是过后我就感觉很棒。经过社团的活动我还结交了很多朋友。
 
　　例4: What was your favourite subject?
 
　　你最喜欢的科目是什么?
 
　　【思路点拨】
 
　　谈谈你喜欢的科目，这样可以为你选择自己心仪的专业埋下伏笔。如果只回答科目名好像过于简短，没有技术含量，建议考生可以顺便说明一下喜欢的理由或者是获奖情况，给老师留下一个更深刻的印象。
 
　　Possible answer，
 
　　World history. I like learning about how the world was changing before my birth. And I'm interested in the history and cultural background of each country， which helps me understand the news better.
 
　　世界史。我喜欢知道在我出生之前世界是怎么变化的。而且我对当今世界各国历史和文化背景很感兴趣，这些会帮助我更好地了解新闻。
 
　　Mathematics. I like geometry in particular.I've liked maths ever since primary scho1， and then in senior high schoo1 I had an excellent teacher. His class was always interesting， and that made me like maths even more.
 
　　数学。我特别喜欢几何。从小学起，我就喜欢数学。后来在高中我有一个很好的老师，他的课总是很有趣，那使我更喜欢数学了。
 
　　例5: Is there anything you regret not doing or would like to have done differently during high school?
 
　　你在中学的时候有没有后悔没有做出什么事来，或是想浓以往做得不同?
 
　　【思路点拔】
 
　　如果让你说一件令你比较遗憾的事情，可以讲自己的一个真实故事，以情动人。但是有时可用一点小技巧，将劣势转为优势，比如你花了很多时间阅读各种书籍，却浪费了很多休息玩耍的时间，不能像其他的同龄人一样有段美好的童年。这样的一种回答让人不得不刮目相看。
 
　　Possible answer:
 
　　I spent a lot of time on my studies， and got a good， solid ground in my studies， and that was good， I thinkι But I have to say probably it would have been better if I had gotten a little more involved in club activities.
 
　　我花很多时间学习，并在我的学习方面奠定了良好而扎实的基础，这对我很有益处。但是我想说如果我多参加一点社团活动，或许会更好些。
 
　　I spent so much time on club activities during the three years一I didn't fail any of my classes, but looking back on it ,I think it would have been better to put more time and energy in studying.
 
　　三年来我在社团活动上花了很多时间，我并没有为此而缺课，但是回想起来，我认为如果我多投入一点时间和精力来念书，可能会更好。
