【答案解析】● How many other people do you live with?
At the moment I"m living in an apartment downtown.
● How many other people do you live with?
My uncle and aunt, as well as their young son.
● Do you enjoy living in this type of accommodation? Why/Why not?
Yes, I really enjoy apartment living because it"s safe, easy and convenient.
● What type of accommodation is common in your town? Why?
High-rise apartment buildings are definitely the most common where I live. Probably because that"s all there really is until you get to the outskirts of the city.
● What are you studying currently?
I"m studying medicine at university.
● Are there any subjects which you do not enjoy as much as others? Why?
No, not really. I really enjoy every class although some teachers are better than others.
● Do you have to complete a lot of homework?
Yes. They require us to memorise a lot, of course, and that takes up a lot of my free time.
● What do you plan to do after you finish your studies?
I hope I can join a volunteer organisation and get some experience that way. That"s why I"m also learning English.
● How do you normally keep in contact with friends? Why?
Mainly through Facebook and social networking sites like that. For me it"s the easiest way and all of my friends are on there.
● What do you enjoy about this way of keeping in touch?
Just that it"s so easy and you can log on any time of the day and catch up with what your friends are doing all over the world.
● Is there anything you don"t like about this method of keeping in touch? Why?
Not really. Some people say they spend too much time online, stating at a computer screen. But I don"t mind that. It"s just the way socialising works now.
● Do you ever find it difficult to keep in touch with friends using this method? Why/Why not?
The only thing I would say is that I think it is more difficult to keep in touch with people one on one, as it"s quite a group form of communicating. Although in saying that you can always "private-message" people anyway which is similar to email. Sometimes I find it annoying when people don"t check their pages very often.
● Do you enjoy looking at art? Why/Why not?
It depends on the type of art. I definitely enjoy photographic exhibitions and modem art, but I"m not really keen on the classic, old-fashioned types of paintings and so on. I find landscapes really boring and I hate sketches and art with no colour or life.
● What type of art do you like best? Why?
As I said, I enjoy modem art the most because I think it is more interesting.
● Have you ever been taught to do any type of art?
We had art as an elective at high school, and we learned to do all sorts—working with clay, photography, painting and sketching. Our art teacher was really passionate about all forms of art.
● Do you know any artists?
That depends on how you define an artist. I don"t know anyone famous, if that"s what you mean but I do know some university students who I think are very talented. One is a photographer who only takes extreme close-ups of people so that one tiny aspect of their face is shown. The results are fascinating.
● Which colours do you like the most? Why?
I love blue because it is the colour of the sea and the sky. My other favourite colour is green because I connect it with Nature as well.
● Have you always liked these colours? Why?
No, actually when I was a little girl I used to love pink and purple. I"m not sure why, probably because they are thought of as quite feminine colours I guess.
● Do most of your friends like similar colours?
I haven"t really thought about that. I think everyone has their own preferences, particularly related to what they wear. Many of my friends wear a lot of black but I"m not sure if that is their favourite colour as such.
● Do certain colours have any special significance in your culture? Why?
Some colours have a meaning of good luck, including red, which symbolises wealth and good fortune. Other colours like white stand for purity, but beyond that I can"t really think of any strong meanings or significance.
