问答题 2.  Interlocutor:
    Now, I'm going to give each of you a different picture and I'd like you to first describe it and then tell us what you think about it.
    (Hand over the Picture Sheet 2 to Candidate A.)
   
【正确答案】The picture is talking about a story about neighborhood. Two ladies living in the opposite apartments don't know each other though one has been living there for 5 years and the other for 6 years. It seems very ridiculous that people living so near don't know each other for such a long time. However, this kind of story happens everywhere. It is the exact reflection of interpersonal relationships in the modern world. In the modern world, most people live in apartments. They close their doors and never go out as soon as they get home from work. If they live alone, they will kill their time by watching TV or reading magazines. They don't have any connections even with their closest neighbors, who seem not different from people they meet everyday in the street. This phenomenon is no good to us, nor to our society. People will feel lonely more and more. The world becomes so indifferent. Interpersonal relationships are not harmonious. It's time that we took some measures to improve it.
