今天小编要给大家分享: 雅思口语:part3环境类经典问题会答吗?
1.Do you think the environment will be improved in the future or do you think it will get worse?
It's difficult to say, I mean we are certainly more aware of the impact we are having on the environment than we were a generstion ago, but who can predict the future? The major source of pollution is still the burning of fossil fuels such as oil and coal for energy, whether it's for industry, homes or to drive your car.
We've seen some changes recently in national energy policies and now of course electric cars are beginning to be produced, so you might assume that we will at some point in the future solve our energy requirements without relying on oil
and similar natural resources.
If that happens then I think we will see a big decrease in the amount of pollution we generate. Of course, it may take another two or three generations to make those changes, but at least we are moving in the right direction, so personally I'm quite optimistic for the long term future.
fossil fuels 矿物燃料
electric cars 电汽汽车
2.Do you ever discuss the topic of the environment with your friends?
Yes, quite often, it's a hot topic. The governments are always talking about their 'green policies' and what we need to be doing to protect the environement, recycle and save energy and natural resources.
That affects us all in some way, just the other day I was complainng to another student because of a new policy in our class of not printing out handouts but asking students to download them instead. It's some sort of plan to reduce the amount of paper the university is consuming, but it
doesn't seem like a very sensible policy to me because of the way they have implemented it.
sensible adj. 合乎情理的
英文释义:practical and functional
implement v. 实施,执行
英文释义:Put (a decision, plan, agreement, etc.) into effect:
3.Do you think that air-conditioning in buildings is a form of
environmental pollution?
Well, I suppose most people wouldn't consider it as something which pollutes, in fact most air conditioning systems actually help purify the air within the environment they are serving, making it cleaner for people in the office or building in question.
Personally, I don't think that an air conditioning system causes environmental pollution, directly. If that was the case then almost everything we use causes environmental pollution.
You could argue that the energy used by such systems causes natural resources to be consumed, therefore contributing to the impact on the environment. Most systems run on electricity and that has to be generated somehow, either by burning coal, oil or using a nuclear power station for example, all of which cause environmental pollution at different levels.
purify the air 净化空气
in question 存在问题的
英文释义:being considered or discussed
a nuclear power station 一个核电站
