HÃY THỬ TRẢ LỜI CÂU HỎI SPEAKING PART 2 - DESCRIBE YOUR FUTURE JOB NÀO!

--------------------------------
Describe a job you’d like to do in the future.
You should say:
- what it is
- what you will need to do
- how demanding it is
- why you are interested in this job.
When I read the cue card, the first thing springing to mind was to become an interpreter.
An interpreter is someone who has acquired an oral fluency in another language apart from his mother tongue. His mission is to convert spoken language from one language to another to help people from different countries communicate with one another.
It entails listening to, understanding and memorising content in the source language, then reproducing it in the target language. Sometimes, an interpreter has to cope with stress and take his self-control when dealing with difficult speakers. Not everyone speaks with precision and clarity and of course, accents can be tricky to discern. Interpreters, therefore, need to keep their cool and remain relaxed, even in seemingly tough situations. I think the job would be very technically demanding and challenging, but very exhilarating to do.
The reason I have a particular liking for this job is that I think I have developed essential skills to do it well. I study the English language at university and to be specific, my major is translation and interpreting. Despite the fact that I have yet to be fluent in English, I think I will be in the next few years as I keep practicing the language and improving myself in other fields to broaden my horizons. On top of that, it may give me opportunities to travel or to work in a multi-national company where I will meet new people from all over the world, and learn about their cultures and experiences.

感謝 The Underground HK 舉辦野豬音樂節, 好耐無出show, 上到台嘅感覺真係返晒嚟, 仲要係對住中環摩天輪嘅舞台! 多謝Angus Leung幫我地記錄低🤘
希望盡快可以再同大家見面🥺
另外附上Underground網頁裏面Cyril Ma寫嘅show review, 多謝你, 我哋睇到好感動!
An Underground show is special because you get new bands, veteran bands, English bands, French bands, marching bands (we did have one) and of course good old fashioned Cantopop bands. But that’s not what Nowhere Boys is. They’re Cantopop, they use ‘old’ music (we’ll get to that), but they’re not old fashioned.
What first struck me was the violin. Standing in the corner was keyboardist Fisher Kan who decided to whip out a violin for their first song 天外飛仙 (Little Fairy). In their musical video, the band members dress up in classical Chinese outfits and do Kung-fu outside Yau Ma Tei Tin Hau temple, and rock-out next to the Star Ferry pier. They didn’t show up in costume but the whimsical, yet hardcore vibe was just as present. The violin was a little quiet, it could have been the mics, or it could have been their placement, but it would have been great to hear it more.
The second song 狂想曲 (Rhapsody) gave more surprises yet. Released in 2015 near the beginning of their career, the song is an eclectic mix of hard rock, Baroque piano, choir music, rap and more. Nowhere Boys is a band which excels in both recorded and live forms; they understand the difference between the two media and artistically transform themselves depending on what their stage is. In the Rhapsody music video, the band members don different outfits showing the many sides of the band, someone’s the Joker, someone’s a cop, they’re in an old timey Hong Kong style barbershop – then everyone changes roles. The chorale section has very strong Queen vibes and seems to reference Bohemian Rhapsody. For such a chaotic video, the performance is actually incredibly tight but not overwhelming. On stage, however, they change completely. The whole performance is a musical whirlwind. The hard rock starts, pinning you to your seat. Then the baroque piano solo comes in – in the video, it’s underscored by black and white visuals – here the whole band stops and points synchronized at the pianist to great applause. The performance is intense; they’re jumping around the stage yelling into mics but then comes the chorale. Everyone stops and sings in perfect acapella harmony despite having just run a marathon.
There’s something to be said for a Cantopop band incorporating so much classic rock, pop and classical music into their performances. Hong Kong is a city where almost everyone has a Grade 8 in musical performance, but becoming a musician is not a career most people will consider. It’s unrealistic, useless, for a hobby only. Our professional choirs and opera groups are performed in by amazing award-winning singers who are actually bankers and doctors. This means that just in terms of classical music knowledge, Hong Kong really is world class – much of local slang actually comes from musical terminology – but it’s ignored. Nowhere Boys whether they know it or not, is bridging that gap. As a rock Cantopop group, they excel perfectly with creative lyrics, great stage presence and top-notch performance, but more than that, they encompass the musical soul of Hong Kong, telling those that play classical music that the pop world does have a space for them and simultaneously letting popular music fans know that the classical side also has a place. Their creativity and performance style weren’t just for a good show, it was inspirational. At least it was to me – a classically trained musician writing rock show reviews.

[ DSE 7科5** + IELTS 9分狀元分享 ] 對於haters和負面評價這回事，我已經是司空見慣，因此我基本上對於負面評語是不聞不問的。當然，我一定會聽取有建設性的留言，希望頻道可以越做越好。我認為與其花時間、心力去回應那些haters，倒不如把時間投放在製作更好的內容給支持我的觀眾。直至我最近見到一個留言，使我按捺不住要作出回應——留言是來自一位國際學校的學生。如果他只是人身攻擊我自己一個人，我會選擇不作出回覆；然而，我覺得他是不尊重，甚至侮辱每一個在本地教育制度下付出努力的人。因此今天特意拍一段影片去回應一下，也順道澄清一下頻道的定位；另外也想鼓勵所有的本地學生：不要過份看重自己的出身，這些大家都沒法選擇。如果在自身條件不足的情況下反而可以突破制度而取得巨大成就，獲得的尊重肯定比一些本身條件很好但最後一事無成的人多。

相信不少同學除了應付 DSE 或 IELTS 考試外，在日常生活中都很想提升自己的英文底子。聆聽和說話都是香港或者亞洲學生的傳統弱項，而很多人給予的建議就是多收看英美劇集，我自己也認同這種學習方法。然而，很多同學已經追看了幾齣英、美劇，但英語能力好像沒有進步，為什麼呢？有沒有想過自己一直以來原來用錯方法了？今天在這裡想個大家分享在觀看英、美劇的同時增進自己的英語能力的三大方向，想英語進步就切勿錯過！
