Do you like singing? Why?

– Sample Answer 1: Yeah, I love to sing after work coz I’m a music fancier. You know, I hum the songalong with the music and sometimes I just feel my singing skill is terrific. And another reason is, singing is a great way to unwind and bond with my friends. I often sing the high notes with them, using some kind of apps. And singing to our hearts’ content really makes us feel like we’re on top of the world.

hum the song 哼歌

to one's heart's content 痛痛快快、尽情地

on top of the world 幸福到极点、感到极其幸福

到底要不要背同义替换？

– Sample Answer 2: Nope. I can hardly carry a tune when I sing, and my voice breaks on high notes. I always find it difficult to breath properly when singing, you know, often running out of breath. I wouldn’t say I’ve got a talent for singing.

carry a tune 唱歌不跑调

break on high notes 高音处破音儿

run out of breath 气息不足

part3主流题型有哪些？主要考什么题？

– Sample Answer 3: Yes, I do. Although I’m often out of tune when I sing, and I was told that I had no sense of rhythm, I’m still fond of singing because it makes me happy. I usually sing when taking a shower as the acoustics in the bathroom somehow makes me sound better, my voice is deeper and sounds more resonant than usual.

out of tune 跑调

acoustics 传声效果

somehow 不知怎么地
