Сейчас прорабатываю список из 185 тем для эссе в тоефл, чтобы примерно знать, о чем писать (те, кто сдавал, знают, что желательно писать по определенному стандарту с вступлением, заключением, а самое главное - с 2-3 supporting paragraphs with specific reasons and examples). Большинство тем, конечно, несложные, но некоторые мне не нравятся - что-то не получается придумать, о чем писать, да еще по три абзаца с деталями и примерами.
Конечно, никакой академичности или суперправдивости и детальности не требуется, но все же элементарные примеры (пусть придуманные) должны быть.
Помогите плиз с идеями для следующих топиков (особенно country specific):
[b:82c25561e9]79. Your city has decided to build a statue or monument to honor a famous person in your country. Who would you choose? Use reasons and speciric examples to support your choice.[/b:82c25561e9]
[b:82c25561e9]80. Describe a custom from your country that you would like people from other countries to adopt. Explain your choice using specific reasons and examples.[/b:82c25561e9]
[b:82c25561e9]85. A foreign visitor has only one day to spend in your country. Where should this visitor go on that day? Why? Use specific reasons and details to support your choice[/b:82c25561e9]
[b:82c25561e9]87. What discovery in the last 100 years has been most beneficial for people in your country? Use specific reasons and details to support your choice.[/b:82c25561e9]
[i:82c25561e9](как пишут разные пособия и сайты по подготовке, в этой теме самая частая ошибка, что либо пишут об inventions, а не об открытиях, либо не показывают, каким образом именно люди в вашей стране benefit от этого открытия. Мне с такими условиями что-то вообще ничего в голову не приходит. Думала что-то про космос писать, но как бы это представить в виде открытия и привести 3 примера выгодности)[/i:82c25561e9]
[b:82c25561e9]89. If you could travel back in time to meet a famous person from history, what person would you like to meet? Use specific reasons and examples to support your choice.[/b:82c25561e9]
[i:82c25561e9] Я, к сожалению, в истории не очень сильна, думала, может Ленина выбрать ? Только надо бы обосновать в 2-3х пунктах, почему именно его?[/i:82c25561e9]
[b:82c25561e9]91. If you could ask a famous person one question, what would you ask? Why? Use specific reasons and details to support your answer.[/b:82c25561e9]
[i:82c25561e9]Как же я не люблю такие вопросы дурацкие, а также подобные вопросы, которые иногда задают на job интервью. Самое сложное здесь, обосновать why в 3х пунктах [/i:82c25561e9]
[b:82c25561e9]98. If you were asked to send one thing representing your country to an international exhibition, what would you choose? Why? Use specific reasons and details to explain your choice.[/b:82c25561e9]
[b:82c25561e9]132. If you could invent something new, what product would you develop? Use specific details to explain why this invention is needed.[/b:82c25561e9]
[b:82c25561e9]183. Films can tell us a lot about the country where they were made. What have you learned about a country from watching its movies? Use specific examples and details to support your response.[/b:82c25561e9]
[i:82c25561e9]Что-то не могу вспомнить, какие такие фильмы я смотрела, рассказывающие о жизни какой-нибудь страны. Кроме индийских фильмов из далекого детства Может, кто-нибудь напомнит какие-нибудь фильмы.[/i:82c25561e9]
Кажется, все...
Спасибо заранее за помощь и любые идеи хотя бы по какому-нибудь из топиков.
