答题原文

Thanks for your question. Actually, my inclination was not very clear in the first place during the major selection. When looking through the specialty catalogue, MJC was in sight and aroused my interest. The final decision was on the ground of following reasons. 

Firstly, from the ability perspective, my alternatives are few because I'm bad at science. And MJC is most attractive to me in the range of selection. 

Secondly, from the interest perspective，I am keen on writing and I think words are powerful. Therefore, MJC is charming to me as a major equipped ideas with words. 

Lastly, from the goal perspective，I very hope that I can contribute to my country and the people, so the knowledge and experience of MJC must be helpful to my dream. This is my answer. Thanks for listening.

4.内容整体不错，需要注意：回答问题时，可以直接回答内容firstly前面的内容可以删掉；

第一点需要改变说法，不要主动提及自己劣势、缺点等方面，可以将内容改为，更喜欢文科，规避你自己本身理科差、选择方面少的这些问题；

第二中提到了文字是有力量的，这里可以再说一下，新闻与传播学当中的文字起到的力量和作用；

最后一点和前面第二点的区别是什么呢？如果没有太大的区别，可以考虑融合成为一个点，整体内容只回答两个方面即可

答题原文

Thank you for your question!

It has always been my ideal to study journalism and communication.Since I was young,I prefer to like the social science of literature,history and philosophy.I also chose the discipline of literature and history in high school.

As an important window to understand the world,news can enable us to see more truthfully,objectively and comprehensively all aspects of society,from the party and state policies to the people's livelihood.It is my ideal to live up to the prosperous times and become the recorder of the times and the voice of the party and national politics.

Although I know that the threshold for a master's degree in journalism and communication is very high,I believe that all difficulties can be overcome only if I have a goal in mind and can go on firmly,and I will continue to work for this goal.

Thank you,teacher!

学姐点评

1.发音标准，语速适中，请继续保持

2.逻辑可以再清晰一些，在文字方面采用了分段的形式，可以看出来逻辑非常清楚，但是在语音回答问题的时候，可以加入firstly，secondly, thirdly等，会如同文字分段一样会让人听起来更清楚

3.内容整体不错，需要注意：第一点中prefer直接加搜索science of literature即可，prefer sth；第三点，提到新闻与传播学专业门槛高，可以解释一下门槛高？（我不是很理解为什么门槛高？）

4.最后的teacher改为professor

5.回答完问题后，有提示说自己回答完毕，非常好，请继续保持

参考答案

Sample:

Thank you for your kind question.

First of all, I always believe in an old saying that interest is the best teacher. Therefore, the first and foremost reason for choosing this major of journalism and communication is that I have always had a strong interest in this field.

As we all know, we now live in an era where everything could be considered as media. Both individuals and groups need to publicize themselves to the society and receive publicity information fromothers.Our lives are surrounded by news andcommunication activities all the time. Theoperation mechanism and its huge potential power behind these explosive information also arouse my curiosity.

Another important motivation is the consistent spirit of the media industry of advancing with the time, which coincides withmy outlook on life. 

The application of artificial intelligence, AR, VR and other emerging technologies applied in the field of media has become more and more mature, and the arrival of 5G era has injected new blood into the field of journalism and communication. Obviously, such a field with both traditional precipitation and renewed vitality is of great attraction to youngsters like me.

The professional strength of your school is beyond doubt. So it will be my great honor if I can pass this interview and have the access to open a new chapter of my postgraduate career and further my study in the field of journalism and communication in your university.

Thanks so much.

非常感谢您的提问。首先，我始终相信一句古话，兴趣是最好的老师。我之 所以考研的时候选择新闻传播这个专业，最主要的理由就是我一直以来都对新闻 传播这个领域抱有浓厚的兴趣。

众所周知，我们身处一个万物皆媒的时代，无论 是个人还是团体，都需要向社会宣传自我、接受外界的宣传信息，我们的生活无 时无刻不被新闻和传播活动包围着，而这些爆炸的信息背后蕴藏的巨大潜力也让 我十分好奇。

另外还有很重要的一点是，传媒行业一以贯之的与时俱进精神与我的人生观 不谋而合。人工智能、AR、VR 等新兴技术在传媒领域的应用已经趋于成熟，5G 时代的到来更是给新闻传播注入了新鲜血液。这样一个既有传统沉淀又重新焕发 活力的领域，对我这样的年轻人来说是有着很大的吸引力的。
