我參加了2005年12月17日的雅思考試，這是我第一次參加雅思考試，取得了口語9分。以下是我的口試詳細過程回憶，在此和大家交流。

　　1:23pm

　　Arrival of the examiner, a small, heavily sun-tanned middle-aged man with a slightly bald head. He gave me a small smile as he went into the test-room and closed the door.

　　1:25pm

　　I was beckoned into the room. On sitting down, I handed him my ID card and watched him check the information. After that, he set a small mp3 recorder on the desk between us and started the interview. First, he stated the place and date of the interview and began asking me questions.

　　Part 1

　　Q: Whats your full name?

　　A: My name is Zhong Wanting and you can also call me Helen.

　　Q: OK, Helen, where are you from?

　　A: My hometown is Chengdu, Sichuan, but Ive stayed in Guangzhou, for more than 12 years.

　　Q: Can you tell me what you do? Do you work or do you study?

　　A: Im a junior high school student, as you can see, and Im now studying in Grade 9 in Guangdong Experimental Middle School.

　　Q: What do you study at school?

　　A: The middle school curriculum. We study a range of different subjects, for example, the 6 main subjects as we like to call them---- Chinese, maths, English, chemistry, physics and politics. Apart from these, we also have P.E. and history. Now we are in Grade 9, which is the tensest and busiest year in junior high school, as we have to prepare for the senior high school entrance examinations. This means that we have to drop some of the courses we have learnt in Grade 7 and 8, such as biology and geography.

　　Q: Of these parts that you study, which one do you like best?

　　A: I like chemistry the most, even though we only started it this term, meaning that we have studied it for only 4 months. I really like the various reactions, and how matter changes. The experiments are so amazing. I just love doing things in the chemistry laboratory.

　　Q: What kinds of clothes do people like to buy?

　　A: Well, teenagers like to choose clothes that are in, that are trendy, for teens like fashion, especially when they are with their peers. And the elder generation, the adults, tend to buy clothes that are more comfortable to wear and more economic. So, I think the different ways in which young people and older adults choose apparel reflect their different views about fashion, and value.

　　Q: Can you tell me something about your grandparents?

　　A: My mothers father passed away when I was only 2 years old, which means that I do not have a clear, distinct memory of him, but I have seen his picture, and I have heard stories about him from my mother, about how he worked as a pilot in the Chinese army. Grandmother doesnt live with us now, but we usually phone her on special occasions. On my fathers side, his mother----my grandma, -----passed away when I was in primary school. She died of cancer of the intestines. I miss her very much because she had always been kind to me. My grandfather lives in Chengdu now with my aunt, uncle and cousins as a retired worker. When I was a little child, I used to live with my grandparents . They took good care of me and were very fond of me because Im the only girl in my family in my generation.
