What did Susan say she was told? 3. What did Olivia say they need to do to get into good universities? They’re really fascinating subjects if you’re good at computer programming There’s no point in choosing a subject that you like but you’re not very good at. They need to start studying even harder. Liu Ming: Hi, Susan! Hi, Olivia! I’ve been thinking a lot recently about university. Have you guys made any plans yet? Susan: Hi, Liu Ming! I guess I’ve thought about it, but I haven’t made any firm plans yet. How about you, Olivia? Olivia: The same. My parents said that my future career might depend on what university I end up getting into. Liu Ming: If I had a chance, I’d love to go to a top Chinese university. But it’s so hard. I need a really high score to pass the National College Entrance Exam. Tapescript 我 Susan: Oh, in the UK, we don’t have a university entrance exam. We take a separate exam for each subject that we study. Then we use our grades to apply to a university. We also have to give a long essay to the university saying why we want to study our chosen subject. Olivia: Well, in the US, we need to get really high grades and we need to take a college entrance exam. Plus we have to write an admission essay. Liu Ming: So, we must all study extra hard, then. I really want to major in computer game design. I'd like to design fun games for children to learn with. Tapescript 我 Susan: That’s a great idea! I’d like to study international business. According to the school’s careers advisor, it could help me find work overseas. It would be great to see more of the world! Olivia: Hmm... I’m not sure what I want to study as my major yet. But right now I’m thinking about robotics. I’m really interested in futuristic things. Liu Ming: How about cybersecurity or data science? I read that they’re really fascinating subjects if you’re good at computer programming. But I’m hopeless at programming! Tapescript 我 Susan: That’s a good point. I was told that there’s no point choosing a subject that you like but you’re not very good at. Olivia: Yes, and don’t forget that where you study is also important, too. I’m planning on taking a few campus tours to see what the atmosphere and facilities are like. Liu Ming: Good idea! I really hope that we can all find good universities. Susan: Me, too. I hope we are all lucky and find great universities. Olivia: Luck? Ha-ha! I think we all need to start studying even harder, too! Tapescript 我 IMPORTAINT POINT Part 3 Speaking 1. Do you agree with Olivia's parents when they say that a person's career might depend on what university they get into? Why or why not? 5. Work in groups. Discuss these questions. It depends upon the career. For a few highly specialized careers, getting into the right university is key. For many other careers, it does not matter which university you have been to, or even really what you have studied at university. Discuss these questions. 1 Do you agree with Olivia's parents when they say that a person's career might depend on what university they get into? Why or why not? It depends upon the career.

He has some worries about his future, and he asks us to give him some suggestions. Now watch the video, and write a letter of advice to him after class. Let’s make it clear what Yuan Yujing said in the video. How could you apply the above three reasons to yourself to achieve your own goals and dreams? Write a passage in 100 words. For me, the biggest lessons are the willingness to endure hardship and his patience. Often, I don’t like to put myself through difficulty and I like to take the easy way, and I hate waiting! However, in order to achieve my dreams, I will have to become more patient, and I will have to push myself to do better, even when it is not easy. 课堂小结 Thank you! Have a nice day !
