独立口语题

Task1

社交网站和社交媒体是同学们比较熟悉的话题，这道题要求说出不活跃使用社交工具的优缺点，回答时分两方面分别展开作答。优点可考虑的有increase our networks, form communities and interact easily。缺点诸如decreases face-to-face communication skills或者是leak privacy information等, 之后举例可以结合大家熟悉常用的中外社交网络。

 

Task2

这道题可以用一边倒的方法具体展开讨论，也可以用辩证的方法，对于这道关于工作就业的题可能选择中立观点然后分别展开相对容易，分正反两个方面进行分析论述。
