I want to improve my English speaking and writing. I had a IELTS result a few years ago, the overall score was 6.5 but the speaking part was 5.5. I hope that I could communicate confidently with foreign in English. I restart using Italki in April of this year(2025), the last lesson I had was 4 years ago. I seldom speak English in my daily life, I am getting rusty in English. I was a practicing lawyer in China, I passed the bar exam in 2015 when I obtained my Bachelor's degree from the university in Beijing, I also obtained a master degree from Chinese University of Hong Kong in 2021. I am living in Hong Kong since 2020, but I don't have a practicing lawyer license of Hong Kong, i hope I could be a solicitor in Hong Kong one day.

    I watched a BBC documentary this morning, which was called Biology of Dads. It was taking about the role of father in bringing their kids is far more important than we thought. Firstly, newborns tested just four hours after birth already recognised their father’s voice. Not only that, as the mother gets pregnant, the father’s body starts to change as well. And it’s all down to hormones, chemicals that race around our body and change the way we have. Secondly, new dad’s low testosterone level has increased his tolerant, and calmed him down. Finally, girls without father grown up faster, as a kind of self-defence mechanism.

    生命中我们会有遇到一些挑战,面对挑战可能很难

    生命中我们会有一些挑战,面对挑战可能很难,我以为认为即使虽然一些挑战是很难和并会带来压力,但是我们会学习很多新的知识,可是我们只是要克服挑战后会知道,:我们什么学习了,。因此我觉得尽我们所能是关键。

    这几天我的手有一点点痛,所以我需要小心我不能用手太多,特别是在工作的时候,可是我仍然想要练习写中文,我就是不可以写太多。我刚才做手运动,我发现每天做手运动,让我感觉更少痛缓解疼痛,我也注意到我的姿势是非常重要,因为在我有很不好的姿势,我总是感觉更多痛。

    今天我们去了一个商店,我们买一个枕头和一朵花,然后我们去大城市欣赏很棒的天气。回家之后,我做了香蕉冰淇淋加巧克力酱,所以我一边吃香蕉冰淇淋一边听音乐,太放松了,很好吃啊!

    IELTS Essay Part 2 (What Can Arts Tell Us About Life That Science And Technology Cannot?) In today’s world of advanced science and technology, we still greatly value our artists such as musicians, painters and writers. What can arts tell us about life that science and technology cannot? With advancement of technology, many people prefer to spend their time on the devices of science and technology. While art still is considered an important part of a society as well as an expression of its culture. In this essay, I will discuss the art that can expression our feelings and that promotes our creativity and imagination which it can tell us about life more than science and technology. Firstly, the important advantage for human beings when practicing art is that it provides a medium through which they can express their emotions and feelings about life. For example, young children do no have the linguistic capabilities to put their ideas into language and thus communicate directly. Therefore, by using art, they are able to convey meaning through pictures and musics. For this reason, many children psychologist often study the art work of children to gain an insight in what they think and feel. However, the science and technology can not help children express their thinking and it is more likely to repeat and search information that already put into. On the other hand, art is a indispensable part for human beings which is able to promotes people’s creativity and imagination about life. Without the development of imagination and creative thinking, people will struggle to grow into dynamic, individual thinker. For instance, some children are particularly gifted in their creative abilities and studying art can help them nurture their talents. While the devices of science and technology offer people a more convenience life, and it make people lazy about imagination and living a passive lifestyle. Overall, experience suggests that art will remain play a vital role in our life which help us using the way of imagination and creativity thinking to express our feeling about life. However, science and technology is more like a supplement instead of a substitute.

    IELTS Essay Part 2 (Houses Style) Some people think the newly built houses should be as same as the old houses style in local areas. Others argue that local authorities should allow people to build houses in their own styles. Discuss both views and give your opinion. With the emphasis on the style of houses has increased in recent years, people insist that they should be allow to build houses with their own styles, while others would like to abide by the old house style in local areas. I believe that the local people have a right to decide their own styles of building. In this age of globalization, the newly built houses has a special feature that it commonly be notice around the world. People more likely to create a unique appearance of local building that attract people’s attention and that reflect distinctive features of local area. For example, the urban renewal is development with soaring pace in many developing countries, especially in China, many cities have changed the style of old houses building since the modern style of buildings meet the demand of urban evolution. Also, with advancement of technology, people prefer to enjoy the smart home and they need their own styles of newly built houses for a better standard of living. Therefore, the old house style is not satisfied people’s need any more. It is true that the old houses style remain the historical value for local areas, but the obvious merits brought by newly built style clearly outweigh its disadvantage, and people and local authorities should memories the old built style, such as reserve its photos, build a museum, and write a book. Overall, I believe that people have a freedom to express their own style of new house and have a right to decide which style should be build, but the local historical value should not be neglected.

    IELTS Essay Part 2 (Environment) One of the best way to solve the world’s environment problems is to increase the cost of fuel and all vehicles. To what extend do you agree or disagree? With increasing awareness of fossil fuel is harmful to environment, people claim that a method of increase the cost of fuel and all vehicles is a best way to solve the issue. Generally, I hold a different opinion. It’s true that increase the cost of fuel and all vehicles can reduce a slight damage of environment problems, but it barely change the habit of people using the fuel and driving the vehicles as people rely on fossil fuel as a basic energy in our daily life. Therefore, increase the cost on it just a temporary measure. From the long-term point of view, using alternative energy sources and changing the way of people travel is a key way to address the problem. A more environmentally sound option is to adopt clean energy rather than fossil fuel, such as wind sunlight, wind, tides and etc. Which often provides energy in four important areas, such as water cooling or heating, transportation, electricity generation, and rural energy services. These alternative energy present a feature of renewable which have advantage of lower pollution and reduce carbon dioxide emissions. A more effective method that government could take in busy cities is to encourage the use of public transport. This means that transportation options have to be plentiful, convenient and reliable, and people need to be able to afford them. Besides, government should run campaigns to encourage people to be less dependent on their cars. To sum up, the trend toward rising the cost of fuel and car is a temporary way. The investment in clean energy and people should be encouraged to use other means of transport is a better answer.

    Ielts essay part 2 ( which one should be more rewarded?) Some people think that only the best students should be rewarded. Others, however, think that it is more important to reward students who show improvements. Discuss both these views and give your own opinion. Some people claim that students of more excellent should be rewarded, while others argue that it is a better idea to reward the most progressive students. In my opinion, both kinds of students deserve to be rewarded. The practice of rewarding the best students is a widely used in many schools around the world, the reason for this practice is the idea that students do their best should be encourage and that set a good example for other students, in other words, it telling other students they can also do their best. Moreover, school should create a competitive atmosphere around the students and build students’ personality of confident. For example, the best students was rewarded and they enjoy being appreciated and willing to keep the record in ensuing time. If other students also want be rewarded they will preform better. Therefore, this way is benefit for the students who want to be the best. On the other hand, effort is also a quality of worth to be rewarded. The most progressive students who are not that intelligent and may be slow at acquiring new knowledge or skills, they can make a great progress means that they work harder than others. Most of students are not the best, they need the role model to inspire themselves do more better. Also, from the most of students point of view, It’s a high standard of do the best for most of students, students who making a progress always do the best for themselves. Thus, reward the students who show improvements is also a important way for education. Overall, it is hard to choose between these two approaches for each of them has more important effects on all of students. I believe that both of these can be used at the same time.

To address the problems of traffic congestion and the shortage of housing. It’s suggested that the large companies and factories and their employees move to the countryside. It has potential negative outcomes should not be neglect. It’s true that the large companies and factories have disadvantage effect on traffic and housing matters in major cities, especially during the commuter time. The large companies and factories creates huge employment and attractive increasing number of people moving in the major cities. The major city will be reduce the population burden on its shoulders if the large companies and factories relocated in rural areas. However, this solution could not practice on a materialistic level. Firstly, people prefer to enjoy the living standard with high quality, such as education and medical systems, they wouldn’t follow up the footprint of the companies and factories. Even if those people who willing to move there, they need to travel between the countryside and the city frequently for medical service or entertainment facility, leading to new traffic problems. Secondly, the product’ cost of transportation will be increase, the consumer will bear the cost in the end. Finally, the large companies and factories and their employees play an indispensable role in city’s revenue, the loss of these will lead to a reduction in government revenue, the economic of city will be shrink.
