  Describe a book you read that you found useful.

  You should say:

  What it is

  When and where you read it

  Why you think it is useful

  And explain how you feel about this book

  A book I found exceedingly useful in my studies was quite a boring book actually, I have to say. It was a book on English grammar, by a man called Michael Swan, a famous grammarian. It was given to me by a foreign teacher at university. It’s a hugely useful book, as it is organized and laid out in quite a logical way, quite different to other grammar books I’ve seen. It’s really easy to find what you want in it, and the explanations and examples are incredibly clear. I used it a lot when I was writing essays, actually, because I was often unsure how to use certain aspects of English grammar, or in doubt if I was using them correctly. For example, the use of “would” to be “used to” is something that used to confuse me, so I remember looking up “would” in the index of the book and finding numerous examples of the usage, not just the conditional usage, but its usage in terms of meaning “used to”, or “usually” in the past tense. From the examples in the book I quickly grasped the difference in the different uses of “would” in the English language. This is just one example of many times I’ve used this book to check or clarify English language use in my studies. I feel very happy that my teacher gave me this book as a leaving present when I moved on to another year, and it has helped me immensely. I’ve often lent it to classmates and colleagues and they always say that it’s the best grammar book they’ve seen. It’s not cheap to buy though, so I try to look after it and make sure that whoever I lend it to, gives it me back!

  1. What kind of books do young people like to read nowadays?

  Young people tend to read a lot of adventure stories I think. Well, it really depends on the age, really. I’m talking about teenagers. I think teenagers like the more modern adventure heroes like the characters in Marvel comics and films. There are quite a few stories of this nature which are popular. Harry Potter has become internationally hugely famous too, and a lot of young people, young people of all ages in fact, have got really into Harry Potter, both in the original English language versions and also in the Chinese translations. I’d say these probably are the most popular books for young people today. They capture all the elements young people like: adventure, school drama, magic and fantasy!

  2. Some people believe that if children read more books, they may become more successful in the future. What’s your opinion?

  I think that reading is definitely good for young people as it not only expands their vocabulary in their own language and in a foreign language they’re studying, but also helps to improve their understanding of people, human interactions, relationships and situations in daily life. Reading is something that also helps to focus the mind, improve concentration and self-discipline, and so there are a combination of reasons why I think that reading could contribute to people becoming more successful in the long-term.

  3. What’s the value of museums?

  Museums are useful to a degree, I think. It really depends. They can be incredibly boring too. I think that if you visit a museum with a group or class from school and you have some tasks to accompany the visit, things to look out for, things to read and do little projects on, then they can be useful and educational. However, if you just walk around a museum aimlessly looking at artefacts and relics, it can be quite tedious, especially if you have no idea what you’re looking at or don’t have a guide or can’t be bothered to read a bit about what you’re seeing. I think the greatest value in museums is when they are designed to be interesting, have interactive exhibits and make learning about history fun and entertaining.

  4. Should museums be replaced by the Internet?

  Absolutely not. We cannot do everything in our lives online. That actually kills our focus and imagination. Museums are physical spaces that we can walk around with other people, and see things directly, not just on a screen. I would always promote the improvement of museums and not the replacement of them with online versions. It’s important that we keep real artefacts and relics from the history of the world in museums, also to preserve them. And letting the general public go in and see these on display is a lot more meaningful than simply putting these things on show online. However advanced society becomes, seeing a famous or important historical object in real life is much more interesting than seeing it in the form of a photo or video on a website.
