問題: What public morals should people follow in your country?
思路 1
Respect and Politeness
尊重和禮貌
考官答案
I think being polite when talking to others is important. Many young people forget to use "please" and "thank you" nowadays, but these words really matter in daily talk. It's very rude not to say them in a shop to the person helping you. Being polite is a simple way to show you care about others.
我認為與他人交談時保持禮貌是很重要的。現在許多年輕人都忘記使用「請」和「謝謝」,但這些詞在日常交談中真的很重要。在商店裡不說這些話給幫助你的人是非常無禮的。保持禮貌是一種簡單的方式,表明你關心他人。
思路 2
Cleanliness and Environmental Responsibility
清潔和環境責任。
考官答案
Definitely not throwing rubbish on the ground. It's so annoying that some people still litter, even when a bin is close by. And smokers often don't think their cigarette butts are litter, but they are. It's frustrating, and it seems like even with the government talking about it, people don't change their habits.
絕對不能隨地亂丟垃圾。有時候看到有些人即使垃圾桶就在旁邊,還是會亂丟垃圾,真是令人生氣。吸煙者也常常不覺得他們的煙蒂算是垃圾,但其實是的。很令人沮喪,看來就算政府談論此議題,人們也不改變習慣。
思路 3
Social Responsibility and Community Engagement
社會責任和社區參與
考官答案
I wish people would volunteer more in their communities. Nowadays, we're so focused on our own lives that we don't notice what's happening around us. Volunteering doesn't have to take a lot of time. Even simple things like checking on elderly neighbors used to be common, but now, not many people do it.
我希望人們能更多在他們的社區做義工。現在,我們都太專注在自己的生活上,而忽略了周遭發生的事情。做義工並不需要花費很多時間。就算是像去關心年長鄰居這樣簡單的事情曾經很常見,但現在卻沒有多少人在做。
