Describe an electronic device such as a mobile phone.
You should say:
its exterior outlook, price, brand
how you get it
how it has developed in recent years
and explain how you feel about it.
這道題目要求考生描述一個電子產品,包括它的外形、價格、品牌;怎么得到它的;它在近幾年的發展以及對它感受四個方面。電子產品領域非常廣,我們日常用的很多東西都是電子產品,如:手機、電腦、數碼相機、MP3、微波爐、音箱等。需要注意的是描述需要面面俱到,缺一不可。
Candidate 1: I want to show my mobile phone. The mobile phone was given by my father when I went to the university. He said to me: "You will live in another city. So I want to communicate with you with the mobile phone."
The mobile phone is glossy and handy. The size allows me to carry it in my pocket, my purse or around my neck. That means it can go with me whereever I go. It has many functions including downloading and playing MP3, watching videos, sending messages, recording and Bluetooth. It also has a built-in camera. So I can take a lot of beautiful photos. My father spent 1600 yuan on it. I think it was not really that expensive but it's thought that counts for its famous brand—Sony Ericsson, which is popular with young people.
Now more and more people have mobile phones. Its exterior outlook also tends to be fashionable. On one hand, mobile phones have turned the world into a little village and made people communicate with each other more easily. On the other hand, mobile phones enable people to enjoy more convenience and fun.
Candidate 2: Nowadays, more and more electronic products based on new technology have become important parts of our lives. People can make one's life more happy and convenient by using these things. Five years ago, the MP3 player was not a common thing in the daily time. But now, almost every youth has a more useful player than MP3, which is usually called MP4 player or even MP5 player.
I got an MP4 player last year. Most MP3 players can only be used for "listening" but MP4 player can also be used for "watching". So it has a screen on the front page with five buttons: volume up and down, next one, last one and meun button. There is a speaker on its back so you can hear the voice of the file without the headphones. It can save files for 2G bytes. When I can watch the film whenever I like. The MP4 palyer brings much convenience to people. Portable as it is, people can listen to music on the way anywhere. During a boring journey, people can watch a funny show or a film to kill time. It can even be used to read an electronic novel. It can be taken to everywhere in a pocket and children can hold it easily. The things you should care about are just the dump energy and your unhealthy eyes.
Human beings always need a convenient life. Maybe someday in the future, we can find a better player then MP4. But now, why don't we think MP4 player is wonderful thing? How nice it is!
Candidate 1描述的是自己的一款索尼愛立信的手機,是去大學念書前父親送給自己的。它外觀炫麗,功能較多,且便于攜帶,作者非常喜歡。考生用詞準確豐富,娓娓道來,可見英語功底牢固。美中不足的是沒有描述這一型號手機近幾年的發展;Candidate 2描述得是MP4,用了一些比較專業的詞匯,如volume, file, byte, saver等等。缺點也是沒有明確陳述其發展,只是點明它是由MP3發展而來的。
