问题     Individual Long Turn
    Now, I’m going to give you a topic and I’d like you to talk about it for one to two minutes. Before you talk, you’ll have one minute to think about what you’re going to say. You can make some notes if you wish. Do you understand?
    Here’s some paper and a pencil for making notes and here’s your topic:
    I’d like you to tall about a rule or law you would suggest to improve your country.
    Talk about a rule or law you would suggest to improve your country.
    You should say
    why it would improve your country
    why it is necessary
    how difficult it would be to enforce
    and mention whether or not you think it is ever likely to be introduced.
    Rounding off questions:
    Have you ever heard of a country which has this type of law?
    Do you often think about the laws in your country?
选项
答案 A law which I think would really improve my country, or any country for that matter, would be one which requires everybody to volunteer time to a particular charity or cause, which they have chosen. The law would stipulate how many hours per year that each citizen had to contribute to the charity or organization, and there would be quite strict penalties for not contributing the required number of hours. This would improve the country in lots of different ways. The first way is that through volunteer hours, human resource would be built and the charities would benefit from increased manpower. In turn, this would benefit the community as the various charitable groups would improve their services to the community so in this sense it is a win-win situation. I think another byproduct of volunteering is the sense of pride and good feeling that people could gain by volunteering and doing something meaningful rather than something which is purely based on financial gain. As well, people would build friendships and social connection through meeting other volunteers. This law is necessary because I think in today’s modem world, people have lost touch with their sense of community and moral obligation to help others, as the world has become very individualistic and self-centered. At the moment it’s all about me, me, me, but I think this law would help to create community spirit again. Of course, there would be an awful lot of administration required to enforce the law. It might also be difficult to monitor who had completed their hours and so on each year, and naturally, people might choose to pay the fine rather than do the volunteer hours, which would defeat the purpose of the whole thing. I’m pretty sure this law would never be introduced, because politicians perceive that there are much more pressing issues which require legislation, and it’s actually quite unrealistic, but I think this law would make a real difference to society.
    No, I haven’t and I’m sure that no country has it. It’s a bit of a dream really.
    Not often. I mostly just accept them and get on with my life.
