问题：Do you think it is a bad thing to disagree with team members? Why?
答案：I don't think anyone with
a sane mind would actually believe that it's a bad thing to disagree with your teammates. Disagreements can either
lead to conflicts or improvements and as to which direction it would go depends on how tactful you are at
handling disagreements.
好表达：
lead to 导致
conflict 矛盾，冲突
tactful 圆滑的（但是是褒义词）
handle disagreements 处理不同意见

问题：Why do some people prefer to work in large companies, rather than small ones? (来自雅思考试)
回答：It depends on what you want. Some people want a glorious career path where they can see their progression from a low level clerk to a high level leader. They are mostly motivated by money, power and fame (somewhat to that degree).
As for some other people, they just want to have a work-life balance. Smaller companies don't demand the employees to work overtime on a regular basis so for people just want to have a 9-5 job, smaller companies are just more suitable for their needs.
好表达：
career path 职业路线
progression from A to B 从A发展到B
clerk 小职员
motivate = inspire 激励
money, power, and fame 名利权
work-life balance 工作生活平衡
work overtime 加班
on a regular basis 通常
a 9-5 job 朝九晚五的工作

问题：Should people stay in their hometown and find jobs there? Why? (来自雅思考试)
回答： The word “should” has too strong a connotation of obligation so I don’t think anyone “should” stay anywhere.
I do understand the intention behind this idea though because it’s getting increasingly disheartening to witness a slew of brain drain on smaller cities when talented people flock on to bigger places.
I think it’s important to cultivate an appreciation of one’s hometown and hopefully, that will in turn make them want to return there one day to contribute further.
好的表达
connotation：言外之意
disheartening：伤心
brain drain: 人才流失
cultivate an appreciation：培养感激之情

问题：Do you care about people's opinion about you? Why or why not? (来自雅思考试)
回答：
Again, the answer is it depends.
I don’t care about what people think of me when they are just random strangers on the internet. Because under the anonymity of the Internet, my words don’t usually have consequences. Yes I know it sounds like a coward mindset but that’s just how humans are.
In real life, however, I always have to remind myself to be careful. Unlike the Internet, people can see your actions clearly and they can affect you in a bad way if they don’t like how you act. Hence I have to care about how they see me.
But being a principled person as I am trying to be, I’m learning to even discard “caution in the wind” in real life. Some values can’t be compromised and standing up for those values is more important than caring about how others see you, no matter how negative it is.

问题：Do you think actors need to be beautiful or handsome? Why? (来自雅思考试)
回答：
Do they HAVE to be attractive? Not necessarily, actors like Adam Driver and Danny DeVito are widely recognized as having a successful career and they aren’t beautiful.
However, that’s just the exception to the rule. Most people in the entertainment industry are more or less good looking and this makes sense.
Think about it. You, an ordinary person who comes home from work, exhausted from the day. You flop onto your couch and turn on the TV. What do you want to see? A bunch of talented but hideous people going around clowning themselves or a bunch of talented but gorgeous people doing the same thing? Of course the chances are you would choose to look at beautiful things. You’ve had enough ugly reality throughout the day so naturally, when you can choose, you choose to see a pretty fantasy.
There’s also a gender caveat when it comes to beauty. From my experience people are slightly forgiving to ugly but talented male actors but not so when it comes to their female counterpart. As you know, we are familiar with the concept of “objectification of women”.
注：我特意用百度谷歌了下
Danny Devito长这个样，演过‘飞跃疯人院’

问题：What are the factors that affect the students in choosing their career? (来自雅思考试)
回答：Jokes aside, while I do believe financial motivation is probably one of the most crucial factors I think other reasons such as passion and fulfillment are just as important.
A job is something that you have to deal with every day, sometimes for long hours. In order to sustain your energy on doing the same task for long hours, passion really comes in handy. It gives you some enjoyment doing the same thing over and over again and more importantly it provides with a purpose.
Fulfillment is another factor that I think a lot of people don’t consider but is actually important in the long run. Yes you may be passionate for ladder climbing in a corporate firm and you are earning big bucks because of it but to what end? What is the ultimate takeaway you want to get at the end of your career? What lessons have you learnt and how proud are you of your job?
When people, especially young adults, think of a career choice most of them focus on just money and passion. But to me, fulfillment is more important than both because it ties to my overall well-being.
