问答题2.Interlocutor: Now, I'd like you to talk about something between yourselves. We're just going to listen. (Place the Picture Sheet 1 in front of both candidates.) I'd like you to talk about which media you would like to rely on to get current affairs and explain why. This is the picture for your reference. It shows four kinds of media: 1) TV; 2) newspaper; 3) Internet; 4) radio.
【正确答案】1. I often watch TV to get current affairs. It is very convenient for me to watch TV and I think it's the favorite way for me. TV programs have visual images and I can directly see what has happened on site. The news report updates quickly and I can always know the latest news. Newspapers are usually slower, and I don't want to buy them and then throw them away to create a lot of garbage. On the radio I can only listen to the voice with no image and the programs are not as interesting as TV. 2. I like to read newspapers to get the latest news. I don't have a TV set. I think reading newspapers is very convenient. You can read it anywhere and do other things while reading. There are headlines on the first page, and you can know the major news at once. There are also pictures. The news story is usually very detailed. There are also many kinds of newspapers for me to choose. I like to read local news, especially those about the life of local citizens. These are less in TV. 3. Computer is what I often use to get information. Now the Internet becomes more and more developed. All the information can be got on the Internet. There are news reports on many websites. I often go to Sina.com or Sohu.com to look for the latest news. It's very convenient. I just have to click the mouse and open up new web pages. There is news about entertainment, sports, fashion, etc. They are put into different catalogues and I can see them at once. Not like in TV, I have to wait till the particular time to watch for different news. 4. I often get news from the radio. It's easy to take a radio with you, and you can know news in the place where there is no TV set or computer. You can do your own business and put a radio beside you reporting the latest news. The voices of the reporters in the radio are usually very nice and appealing. It's an enjoyment to listen to their voices. Though it's not as modem as TV, it is popular among some nostalgic people, especially old ones. People who are illiterate or blind or poor-sighted like the radio very much.
