Okay, let me answer the former question first.Currently, people in this competitive society often feel stressed, especially the young people.So, what caused this? For my apart, the reasons can be divided into 3 sides.The first one causing pressure is the peer pressure, which may from our studies, our work, our emotion world and so on.All of all, these things can make us become aware of the difference between ourselves and others.Secondly, parental pressure is also an important element.Our parents usually have a high expectation to their children, but the young people cannot live up to their expectation easily.Finally, it’s societal pressure.Society is a complex world, which includes a lot of pressure, such as the housing pressure, social pressure, competitive pressure, etc.As for the attitude to pressure, I wanna say one words “Tomorrow is another day.” And pressure is ubiquitous, we should be an optimist, keep smile every day, we’ll be better.Thank you for your time.This is Wang Shaoguang.5.Academic Dishonesty

Good morning!My name is Wang Shaoguang, and my student ID is 9171010E0525.Now please allow me to talk about the first topic: What are the reasons for academic dishonesty? How can it be prevented? To answer the question, the first thing we should know is that academic dishonesty is exit in about two persons: students and scholars.For students, their motive for doing this is no more than to achieve a good grade or a scholarship.For scholars, they want to get a senior title or an honor.What they do are all for their benefit, but this is a wrong way, which just cheats themselves and others and is to blame.To prevent such awful things happening, I reckon that our government should establish and perfect the relevant legal system firstly.And the educational department should popularize honesty education.In recent years, our country has put “cheating in exam” into penal code, from this thing we can know the importance of honesty, so I hope every citizen could be honesty.Thank you for your time.This is Wang Shaoguang.6.Optimist

第五篇：2012级B班二级口语题目（范文模版）

Part IReading Aloud

Passage 1(Unit 2, Para.8)

I feel the delicate symmetry of a leaf.I pass my hands lovingly about the smooth skin of a silver birch, or the rough bark of a pine.In the spring I touch the branches of trees hopefully in search of a bud the first sign of awakening Nature after her winter's sleep.I feel the delightful texture of a flower, and discover its remarkable fold;and something of the miracle of Nature is revealed to me.Occasionally, if I am very fortunate, I place my hand gently on a small tree and feel the happy quiver of a bird in full song.I am delighted to have the cool waters of a brook rush through my open finger.To me a thick carpet of pine needles or soft grass is more welcome than the most luxurious Persian rug.To me the colorful seasons is a thrilling and unending drama, the action of which streams through my finger tips.(159 words)

Passage 2(Unit 4, Para.2/4)

Optimism and pessimism are both powerful forces, and each of us must choose which we want to shape our outlook and our expectations.There is enough good and bad in everyone’s life — ample sorrow and happiness, sufficient joy and pain — to find a rational basis for either optimism or pessimism.We can choose to laugh or cry, bless or curse.It’s our decision: From which perspective do we want to view life? Will we look up in hope or down in despair?

An optimistic attitude is not a luxury;it’s a necessity.The way you look at life will determine how you feel, how you perform, and how well you will get along with other people.Conversely, negative thoughts, attitudes, and expectations feed on themselves;they become a self-fulfilling prophecy.Pessimism creates a dismal place where no one wants to live.(141 words)

Passage 3(Unit 8, Para.1/2)

Many claim unhappy and terrible childhood experiences “damage” people in their adult years.But is this necessarily true? Actually, just the opposite seems to be true.Intense difficulties, hardships and major obstacles are actually often major contributors to success.It’s true that difficult childhoods do leave some people wounded and disadvantaged.But for others, a tough childhood actually drives them to remarkable achievement and success!

In a classic book entitled Cradles of Eminence, researchers reviewed the childhood family life of 700 of the world’s most successful people.Their goal was to identify the early experiences that contributed to the remarkable achievements of these successful people.All of their “research subjects” are widely known for their personal accomplishments.Their names are easily recognizable: Franklin D.Roosevelt, Helen Keller, Winston Churchill, Albert Einstein, Sigmund Freud, etc.（134 words）
