以下为按课堂已讲方向整理的课后复习改进版；内容只使用本节课逐字稿中出现过的题目、素材、观点和老师示范方向。
What is your favorite subject at school?
My favorite subject is mathematics.
Why do you like math so much?
It has always been my favorite because it is logical and challenging. I enjoy the feeling of solving a difficult problem.
Is there any subject you find difficult?
Yes, I think physics is quite difficult. It involves lots of abstract theories that are hard to understand.
Do you prefer studying alone or with classmates?
I prefer studying alone because I can focus better and study at my own pace without being distracted.
Do you think school subjects are useful for the future?
Definitely, yes. Most subjects build basic knowledge and thinking skills, which are essential for future study and work.
Do you often use computer for studying?
Yes, I use my laptop almost every day for studying.
What kind of technology helps you study?
I use my laptop to search for learning materials and finish homework.
Is there an app or website that helps you study?
I usually use websites and some educational platforms to watch explanation videos and review knowledge points.
Do you prefer paper books or digital material?
I prefer paper books because they are easier to focus on, and digital materials can be harmful to my eyes.
Do you think technologies like AI can make students lazy and think less?
Yes, to some extent. Some students rely too much on online answers and stop thinking independently.
Describe a school subject you enjoy learning.
I'd like to talk about mathematics, which was my favorite subject when I was in high school.
I was taught math by an experienced middle-aged teacher, Mr. Zhang. He was very patient and humorous, and he never made math feel boring or stressful. In his classes, we didn't just memorize formulas. Instead, we learned logical thinking, problem-solving skills, and different calculation methods. For example, we learned how to analyze data, solve equations, and use mathematical ways to deal with real-life problems.
Every lesson was well organized, from basic knowledge to difficult exercises. I really enjoyed this subject for two main reasons. First, math is very logical. Every question has a clear and accurate answer, so I could feel a strong sense of achievement every time I solved a difficult problem. Second, my math teacher made the class relaxing and encouraged us to think independently.
Why do some students like science subjects?
I think it is mainly because science subjects are objective. Unlike some other school subjects that require lots of memorizing, science focuses on reasoning and problem solving. Many students enjoy the process of exploring rules and finding accurate answers.
Should schools allow students to choose more subjects?
Yes, I think so. Different students have different strengths and interests. If they can choose subjects they like, they will be more motivated to study. However, basic compulsory subjects should still be kept to ensure students get well-rounded knowledge.
What makes a subject difficult to learn?
Several factors can make a subject hard. First, abstract knowledge can be difficult to imagine or understand. Second, a fast teaching speed may make students fall behind easily. Also, if students lack a basic foundation, they may find the subject extremely difficult.
Talk about the advantages and disadvantages of using AI in studies.
For the advantages, AI can help students find educational papers or answers very quickly, so it can save a lot of time. Students can also learn knowledge by asking AI questions.
However, there are also disadvantages. Some students may rely on AI too much when doing homework. They may just copy AI's answers, and because of this, they cannot really improve or understand things clearly.
Describe a teacher who explains something clearly.
I'd like to talk about my math teacher, Mr. Zhang, who explained things very clearly. He was an experienced middle-aged teacher, and he was patient and humorous.
In his classes, he did not just ask us to memorize formulas. He explained difficult points clearly and helped us understand logical thinking and problem-solving methods. He could also adjust his teaching method according to students' needs. For example, if something was difficult, he could slow down the class and explain it in a more understandable way.
I think he was a very good teacher because he made a difficult subject less stressful and even interesting. His teaching helped me enjoy math more.
Are good teachers more important than good textbooks?
Yes, I believe teachers are more important. Textbooks only provide fixed knowledge, and everybody reads the same version. However, excellent teachers can explain difficult points clearly, adjust teaching methods, and encourage students. A good teacher can adapt to students' needs, while a textbook cannot.
How can students stay motivated when learning a hard subject?
I think they can first set small and clear goals instead of aiming too high. Small progress can bring continuous confidence. Besides, teachers' encouragement and a positive learning atmosphere also help. Students can also review their progress regularly to keep themselves motivated.
What kind of games help develop children's imagination?
I think creative games are the best, such as building blocks, puzzle games, role-playing games, Lego, and Minecraft. These games do not always have fixed rules, so children can create different shapes and stories by themselves. They can use their imagination instead of just following a rigid structure.
What kind of jobs require imagination?
Many creative professions require rich imagination. For example, artists, designers, writers, photographers, advertising creators, and film directors all need to come up with new ideas. They rely on imagination to produce unique works and attract audiences.
How important is imagination to children?
I think imagination is very important for children. It helps them think creatively and solve problems in different ways. It also encourages them to explore new things and develop independent thinking. If children lack imagination, their thinking may become limited.
Do you think adults can have a lot of imagination?
Yes, they can, but maybe not as much as children. One reason is that adults often have more fixed thinking and life pressure, so they tend to be more realistic. Another reason is peer pressure. It takes courage to show different views, especially at work. However, many adults can still keep their imagination, especially those who work in creative fields or keep creative hobbies.
Describe a time when you worked in a group.
I'd like to talk about a group presentation project I did last semester at school. We needed to finish a group report about environmental protection and give a speech in front of the class.
I worked with three of my classmates, and we divided the work clearly. One person collected data, one person designed the PowerPoint presentation, and one person wrote the script. I was responsible for organizing the structure and presenting part of the speech.
We also faced some small problems at first. Some members had different ideas about the content, so we had a little disagreement. Also, some of us were busy with other homework, so our progress was slow in the beginning.
We chose group work because the task was too big for a single student. By cooperating, we could save time, combine different ideas, and make the project more complete. Finally, we finished the work and got a high score. I really enjoyed this teamwork experience.
How can you tell if a person is a good leader?
A good leader should be responsible and organized. They can allocate tasks properly, listen to different opinions, and motivate team members. When problems appear, they stay calm and solve issues instead of blaming others.
What are some of the best ways to resolve conflicts within a group?
One good way is to make compromises. A group leader can take something from both sides and come up with a plan that meets them in the middle. Another way is to be decisive. The leader should not let everyone spend too much time arguing. They should make a decision and move on, so the group can focus on the next task.
Should students learn to do group work at school?
Absolutely, yes. Group work helps students improve communication and cooperation skills. It also teaches them how to listen to others, compromise, and collaborate. These social skills are very useful for their future study and future work.
Why do some people prefer to work by themselves?
Some people think working alone is more efficient. They do not need to discuss or cooperate with others, so they can follow their own pace and ideas. Also, some people are introverted and feel more focused and comfortable when working alone. It also depends on the task. Some tasks are individual work by nature, such as writing a poem, painting something, or writing computer code.
