　　2016年8月20日托福独立口语答案Task 2

　　Well, I would prefer watching educational programs on TV. Coz first they satisfy my curiosity. I am a big fan of many natural science subjects, like astronomy, geology, physics, and biology, every time when I am watching those educational programs like National Geography or BBC Planet Earth, I learn so much, which really help to expand my horizon. Second, as a student, I have been quite busy everyday, like I have to take classes like 8 hours a day and deal with endless presentations, school works and club activities etc, so listening to music is my way to unwind and blow off steam, coz I barely have time for entertainment programs on TV, be it soap operas or reality show.

　　托福口语参考答案二:

　　Personally, I prefer to watch entertainment programs on TV. First off, it helps to release my pressure, and I get a chance to relax and unwind. You know, I am pretty busy with tough coursework, like mid-terms, research paper, and presentation to work on during the whole semester. Additionally, it is very interesting and fun to watch. I watch entertainment programs like stand-up comedy, talk shows, TV series, especially American sit-coms. Not only can I learn English expression, but also I can get to know American culture and customs.(新东方 孟炎)

　　I think that would be good. Many 60-year-olds are still physically strong.

　　For people like civil servants, who have comfortable jobs or are in power, it is the later the better.

　　If our healthcare and children's education can be better guaranteed, I think I will still be able to work for five more years. But if the social security is inadequate, I will find it quite hard to work another five years. It depends on how the society can reduce the pressure that's on us.

　　Statistically, "actual dependency ratio"(实际赡养比)will be five to one in 2020. If China doesn't take itself to full employment, increase low-income people's earnings so that they can not only feed themselves but also elderly people, or push pack the retirement age. By 2020, we will become a seriously aged country. It will lead to a series of social problems and directly threaten our goal of having a prosperous society in 2020.

　　I think there are pros and cons. The positive side is that middle-aged and elderly professionals can continue to make contributions to society. The negative side is that young people may have difficulty finding jobs.In an aging society, the number of elderly people is growing. If we push back retirement by another five years, young people will have fewer and fewer opportunities.

　　Well,I prefer to watch entertainment programs on TV due to the following reasons.

　　Firstly, TV programs mainly serves as an entertainment way for people to relax. I often choose to watch various entertainment TV programs such as Super Girls, Sound of China and so on to relieve my stress from study. Secondly, watching relaxing TV programs is not as serious as watching educational ones. I have many other ways to educate myself such as reading books, taking classes ,which are more effective than learning on TV. Additionally, there are many commercials on TV which easily take away my attention.
