  Directions: Talk on the following topic for at least 5 minutes. Be sure to make your point clear and supporting details adequate. You should also be ready to answer any questions raised by the examiners during your talk. You need to have your name and registration number recorded. Start your talk with “My name is ...” “My registration number is ...”

  Read the following passages:

  March 5 marks the 49th anniversary of the "Learn from Lei Feng Day", a day named in honor of the Chinese soldier Lei Feng, after he died in 1962, for his selflessness and modesty.

  While Lei Feng’s name still resonates in China and elsewhere, some begin to wonder whether the spirit of Good Samaritan is still relevant in an age of intense materialistic pursuit and whether the image of helping grandmas cross the road is somewhat outdated

  Questions for reference:

  1.How do you perceive Lei Feng spirit in the modern age?

  2.Is it really being driven into irrelevance as times change?

  3.Or is it in fact always there, just for us to rediscover and redefine?

  Answer for reference

  In my opinion, China needs to seek a "spiritual impetus" for the changing society based on the essence of Lei Feng’s spirit. Lei Feng is an "ordinary" hero. His "heroics" were done in his daily life, and we can follow suit if we wish. If everyone could follow Lei Feng’s path, the community will become much healthier

  In the modern age, China is in a period of social transition with moral conditions among people differed sharply. While some people volunteer to teach in remote villages, some take pleasure in pursuing and flaunting wealth. While some broke their arms to catch a falling kid, some did nothing but watch a baby was killed alive under wheels.

  The reason why we are now calling for the rejuvenation of Lei Feng Spirit is that it is in short supply. Such spirit should be valued. We should “do our own bit” to do something good, no matter how small it is, to be responsible for our behaviors and to persevere in everything we do.
