    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 describe a famous person who you would like to meet.
    Describe a famous person whom you would like to meet.
    You should say
    who the person is and why he/she is famous
    why you would like to meet him/her
    what type of questions you would ask
    and say whether it is likely that you would ever meet this person.
    Rounding off questions:
    Have you ever met a famous person?
    Do you like to read about famous people?
选项
答案 I haven’t ever really thought about this type of question, but I would probably say that the famous person I would most like to meet is the lead singer from the band U2, Bono. I’ve always really loved this band, ever since I was just a kid, and I think that his campaigns for social change are quite inspiring. It’s nice to see someone who is using their fame for good and I have a lot of respect for that. So he’s famous for his music and also for the work that he does, including his work with Oxfam and the ’make poverty history’ campaign. He combines the two activities well and some of U2’s music has quite strong messages. So yes, I’d like to meet him because I think he is an inspirational person. As for what questions I would ask him, I’m not really sure. I’d like to know a bit about his private life, I guess, as he’s always been very private and guarded about his family and wife and children, so I’d be interested to hear about them. I guess I’d also be curious about how the band has managed to stay together for so long in an industry which is renowned for break-ups and instability, because they’ve been together for over twenty years and through several big changes in music style. So I’d be interested in the dynamics of the band and how they all get along, and what their creative process is like. And why they think their music resonates with so many people. Yes, actually I’d have a lot of questions! But I’d also want to know his ideas about ending poverty and how he thinks that might happen within our lifetime, and to learn a bit about that. However, I don’t think it is particularly realistic that I would ever get to meet Bono, but I have been to one of the concerts and seen him on stage quite close up. In saying that my best friend is a music journalist, so who knows, maybe one day I’ll get a V1P backstage pass and get to chat with him. I hope so! I think I’d be quite nervous but then famous people are just people like everybody else, aren’t they?
    Yes, a few local celebrities but nobody really famous.
    Not especially, just if I’m reading a magazine in line at the supermarket or something.
