I don’t think I need to do so. Firstly, because my memory is somewhat similar to goldfish
memory, storing in different devices would drive me crazy. Plus, my iPhone has large
memory storage so I think I won’t need computer for storage.
Vocabulary
Goldfish memory (n) SO who
quickly forgets things
14.12. Are there any photos on the walls of your house?
Since my parents love decorating our house, putting photos nicely on the walls of my
house is an essential part of their decoration style. Some photos go with frame or plastic
cover, some are sticked directly onto the wall in heart-shaped. However, it’s quite
ridiculous for me to see myself grinning everywhere in the house so I told them to let
me decorate my room on my own.
Vocabulary
To see one’s-self doing Sth (n) to have an eye on SO doing Sth
On my own (adv) do Sth alone
14.13. Do you frame (or have you framed) any of your photos? yes, which?& why?
Although I don’t usually print my photos out, I think I would store some photos of me
with my high school friends or me with my family. And
framing helps preventing
scratching and is good for long-term storage, so this is
probably a good alternative
beside albums.
14.14. Do you prefer to send postcards to people or to send photos that you took
yourself? (Why?)
Firstly, the postcards are made of thicker paper, which makes it way more convenient
for long-term storage as well as decoration. Secondly,
the process of sending and
receiving postcards appeared to be simpler and faster compared to photos. For those
reasons I think I probably go with sending postcards.
15. Teachers
15.1. What kinds of teachers do you like best?
My favorite kind of teacher is someone who is helpful,
quite firmed and has high
expectations for students, especially if he/she teaches the subject I love. That kind of
teachers always have admirable passion for their job which motivates me to work
harder in order to impress them.
Vocabulary
To have high expectations for SO (v) to strongly believe that someone will or should
achieve
something
15.2. Who was your favorite teacher when you were young?
Definitely my Literature teachers in my high school.
The first reason is because
Literature is my favorite subject that I believed my knowledge and efforts could impress
the teachers. Secondly, my Literature teachers tended to have a soft voice and inspiring
teaching style that got me excited whenever the class began.
15.3. Would you want to be a teacher in the future?
I think I would, but I want to become a lecturer instead. Although teaching has always
been my dream job since I was a kid, my specialization is not pedagogy, which makes it
difficult for me to teach at schools.
Vocabulary
Specialization (n) The process of concentrating on and becoming expert in a particular
subject or skill
Pedagogy (n) The method and practice of teaching, especially as an academic subject or
theoretical concept
15.4. Have you ever had bad teachers before?
Luckily I haven’t met such an evil teacher. I think as long as you’re hard-working and
you do all the homework, learn the lessons well enough and don’t break any school’s
regulations, your name shall not appear on the teachers’ blacklist.
