英语六级考试口语经典问答题：Going on a vacation

　　Unit 9 Going on a vacation

　　1. If you've got a chance to travel abroad, would you go to Thailand? Why or why not?

　　Yes, I would certainly go. I like to travel and Thailand is a country I have always wanted to visit. I've heard a lot of good things about the country from my relatives who've been there and I've also seen it on TV and in movies. Thailand has a fascinating (迷人的) culture, very friendly people, beautiful beaches, impressive temples, and a colorful nightlife with all kinds of entertainment. Last but not least, at this point of time, it would be the most affordable (支付得起的) place abroad I could go to for a vacation.

　　2. Travelers are always discoverers. How true do you think this statement is?

　　I think it's very true. There's no question about it. Even without leaving where we live, we tend to find something new from time to time so long as we can see and hear. How can a traveler not discover something new if he or she is visiting a new place? As to what kinds of discovery a traveler makes, that would be a different story. People with different cultural backgrounds, education, experience and interest would surely make different kinds of discovery. We would understand this much better when we are traveling ourselves.

　　3. What significant role can traveling play in a person's life? (Can you imagine a life limited / rooted to one place only?)

　　Traveling is eye-opening and gives a person an opportunity to see new places, meet new people and learn about different cultures. It will make a person's life colorful and help the person understand the world better and become broader-minded. To me, a life limited to one place only is something regrettable (令人遗憾的).
