Tell me about your job.

OK then, I could start off by saying that I’m an English teacher in a secondary school.

In fact, being a teacher always gives me a feeling of fulfillment for the simple reason that you would probably feel proud of yourself when your students achieve academic progress under your instruction.

In addition to what I have just said, I can add that sometimes it is not an easy task to be a teacher, especially when you teach some naughty kids who simply don’t listen to what you say at all.
This means that I will have to rack my brain to think of some ways to ‘take care of’ them.

Do you like listening to music?

Well to be quite honest, in general I would say that I’m totally mad about music, specifically RAP, which rocks me up whenever I listen to it.

As well as this, I am also a fan of classical music, in particular some world class masterpieces by Mozart or Beethoven.

Listening to the classical works, you feel like being indulged in a melody paradise.

And only in such time would I feel fully relaxed from the heavy working stress.

What kinds of restaurants are popular in your country?

OK, certainly there are quite a range of widespread restaurants in China, with restaurants which serve Sichuan food enjoying the greatest popularity.

I assume they are so popular because Sichuan food, which is often quite spicy, is to the Chinese people’s taste as well as economical.

In fact, it is quite common that people have to stand in queue waiting for about 2 or 3 hours before they could guarantee a seat in some most ‘hot’ Sichuan restaurants in Shanghai.
In addition, another kind of trendy restaurant would be Japanese restaurant.

And the unique aspect of Japanese restaurant is that the food there is often served in an “all-you-can-eat” style, which means you can enjoy unlimited amount of delicious Sashimi, Sushi and etc as long as you have a big enough stomach.

What is your favorite spare time activity?

Well, in this case I think I have to say my answer really depends.

Like for instance, if the weather is fine, I would probably invite my friends to have a cup of coffee in Starbucks, where we could chat over coffee and kill time.

On the contrary, if it is raining outside, I would be happy to be a ‘couch potato’ watching American TV series like Prison Break, by doing so I can improve my English as well as get to know a lot about the United States.

Is fast food popular in your country?

Alright, I guess that on the one hand, fast food enjoys great popularity among young people and this is definitely the case when you see that majority of the customers in restaurants like KFC or McDonald are young guys of my age.

But you also have to understand that to older generation like my parents, it is a totally different story for the reason that older people in China often prefer traditional food like chicken soup, which is more nutritious according to them.

So on the whole, I suppose the answer has to be Yes and No.

Do you get on well with your family members?

Well, I guess on the one hand, I bound with my mother.

It seems that I can always find something in common to talk with her, who is also a pretty talkative person like me.

We almost talk about everything ranging from recent events to gossip news.

While on the other hand, I have to admit that the connection between my father and I doesn’t seem to be that close.

I think this is mainly due to the fact that my father is a quite reserved person, which means he would prefer to conceal his feelings instead of speaking out.
