Object Cards [21]

Describe an object that you possess which is very important to you. You should say: Which object it is (give a brief description) Why it is so important How long you've had it And explain what you used it for. I've been asked to talk about a small object, and so I guess the most useful small object to me is my mobile phone. I use my phone whenever I'm travelling around Beijing, and also to make sure I can get ,in immediate touch with my clients, because often they make fast decisions and are looking at various options at the same time, so time is very precious. I've had my mobile phone for about a year. At the time it was about 2000RMB, but I believe now you can get one for about 1500RMB. At that time it was considered to be very basic and small. Now the new phones are also small, but they are also much more sophisticated with so many different functions.

I know some people it as a toy, or just as an ego booster, but I really have to have one because I'm a real estate agent. You know, I travel around the city a lot and if my company secretary can't reach me then I'd waste a lot of time having to keep phoning the headquarters at some pay phone, store or booth. There are also a lot of details and facts that I need to keep checking back on whenever I'm preparing to meet a client.

[22] Describe an object you had as a child which was very useful to you. You should say: What the object was How long you had it What you usually used it for And explain why you felt it was more useful than other objects. I think the object that I had that was very useful was my toy bear. I had this toy bear for about five years. I first got it on my 4th birthday, and kept it all the way until I was about nine years old.

When I was a child, I used to take this bear everywhere because I actually didn't have that many toys to play with, and so you could say that it was my playmate. I also used to treat it as if it were my baby brother. If I felt very sad I often needed it to be near me, and it was also something I could imagine to be alive and doing things. My mother would sometimes let me take it to different places, and believe it or not I would even wash it. Even later, as my father and mother began to get richer and could afford a lot more toys, I would still favour this toy over others. I just had more of a connection to this toy.

I guess I would say that it was more useful to me as it was something that helped me through my childhood and added to my social life. You may say that a toy is not really useful, but for me it stopped me from being lonely, and allowed me to feel empathy for something, even though it wasn't really alive. When I turned nine I was too big and thought that having a toy bear was just for small kids, so I just stopped playing with it and put it away. Then I guess for some reason it got thrown away. Now I wish I had kept it because I could give it to my own children when they get older.

Describe a pet you would like to own. You should say: What kind of animal it is and where it lives How you know about this animal What it looks like and what its habits are And explain what you think is important to take care of this pet. If I ever decide to buy a pet, I would buy two hamsters. A hamster is a kind of mouse, and it is smaller than a rat. It doesn't have long tail, and its mouth is not sharp. Hamsters have a lighter colour, something like gray. I like hamsters because they are very cute and have a good temper. I like hamsters because they are very mischievous pets. Moreover, hamsters like to run around a wheel and can go for 15-20 minutes without stopping. To me it is fascinating to watch them do that.

They are actually very easy to take care of. I would just need to put the hamster in a cage, have some pet toys in there, and that would be enough. I would also take it out once in a while and let the hamster run around the living room. A hamster doesn't run as fast as mouse, so it would be no problem for me to catch it and put it back to the cage. Food for hamsters is very simple: they like to eat carrot, fruits, and nuts. Of course, we shouldn't forget water. It's very simple to keep the cage clean. Just make sure the cage is clean and water is replenished every day. I would say a hamster is a very clean animal and very entertaining just to watch. I'm sure all kids and adults would surely like a hamster.

Describe an object that you use for cooking or eating which is most important to you. You should say: What it is and where you can buy it How often you use it What you use it for And explain why it is most important to you. All right... so it was a bit tough for me to choose something to talk about because I don't do much cooking, but I've chose a microwave. These days you can buy a microwave at any appliance store, and there lots of different ones to choose from these days. I'm not sure how often I use it, but I think I can safely say that I use it every day.

I depend on my microwave quite a bit because, as I said before, I don't do much of the cooking in my house. So what my parents often do is cook a lot of food for me, freeze it, and then I just heat it up. I use it for quite a few other things, too. I mean, often I will make tea and then just become busy with something and forget all about it. If I didn't have a microwave, the tea would be wasted, so I find it very useful to have it around. One other very important reason is that I can just buy a lot of things from outside and then just heat it up when I get home.

I think that I've chosen it as being most important because I think it's the one object that really does affect my life on a daily basis. I mean, if I had to actually spend the time to cook things, my life would get very complicated. My parents think that the microwave makes me lazy, and maybe they're ri …… 此处隐藏：5501字，全部文档内容请下载后查看。喜欢就下载吧 ……
