即兴提问部分：
问题1：关于早恋现象
First of all, I would like to say that this is a rather prevalent phenomenon these days, we can see a lot of students around me are having this young puppy love and I think it’s utterly normal for them because I can understand why they do this. They try to seek recognition from the other sex instead of academic success. However, Imorally against it because it’s suddenly detrimental to our future development and it would never last long. First of all, as we can understand that we are still rather immature psychologically in this current stage. And most important thing for love is that we cannot actually thoroughly understand what love is. And for most important part is that I can see students around me having puppy love for simply messing around, seeking pleasure instead of making commitments.And because of this kind of flippancy attitude, I think all they could do is to messaround and that is why puppy love dies in the blink of an eye. And for example I could say, Mary would be dating David on the first day of November, however two days later she is kissing Tom on the other side of the campus. And that’s very normal these days. And secondly I think is because for puppy love is very detrimental to our future development because this particular stage of our time what we should do is to allocate our time to studying and participating in ex-curriculum activity in order to go to the wonderful college in the future. And time is scarce because of that I think as Shake spear once said love is blind and a lot of young students thought they’ve lost themselves in this procedure. And that is very very costly. And so in conclusion, we’d like view this problem from the view of economics, when we are making more rational choices, we should consider the marginal benefits and marginal costs for this particular problem and in the case of puppy love, I see the marginal costs exceeds the marginal benefit a lot. And that is reason why I think this is something we should not be approbated and for the case of those people who are thinking that true love might be lost through this way. I would they that the true love can wait, because if not, it wouldn’t be true love at all, and we’ll have nothing to lose. and that is the reason why I have this kind of opinion.
问题2：关于信仰和激情，以及你为什么想当律师,这与其他职业有何不同
I think the reason why I choose to be a lawyer in the future I choose to pursue this career is different from choosing to become a pianist and surgeon is because there was one time I think this kind of career that’s best fits me. I’m a sort of debater in my early days and I have this kind of technique in order to pursue this career. And that is the practical reason why I think this is why this career is best fits me. And secondly, because personally I have watched a movie called the time to kill it is about a case where a black girl got raped and the only lawyer who step to fight for her is a white lawyer, and the whole process is very complicated but what I see from that story is that I’m very interested in human rights and I want to argue for these people who had their rights trampled and their freedom, how to say, steal away. And if I can be that lawyer, although sometimes I may go against my will and argue for a murderer, a reaper or a criminal, I will always remember that I have taken the oath, that I have to do this job this is my obligation. And I think because of these reasons I have this passion because I love this job, and I have technique because I’m a debater and a speaker in public situations. And this is why this is different from the other choices.
问题3：什么是爱情?
I think love is something that cannot be measured qualifiedly, but the reason why I brought up this terminology in economic is because it first jumps to my mind when I think about making rational choices, and love is something that make us irrational and that is the reason why put out these terminologies, but I think to answer your question of what love is, personally I would say that, knowing from parents view, and also looking at different cases around me from novel, films and movies. I think love is something about commitment. It’s something of responsibility, not just love for the first sight. Because if you believe in love for the first sight, you should believe that it would be gone instantly away. And because of that I think love is something should be taken at heart, it’s not just physical attraction. Because one it would die out. What makes for love go for forever is kind of responsibility that we have to shoulder. That is something that we should not be given away instantly, and that is what I think is love.
