Unit 01 個性特點 Personal Traits

準備方向提示：

此類型題目焦點為對人物特徵及個性（personal traits, personalities）的描述，平時需累積對人物特徵正面描述的形容詞彙。

平時可讓自己多關心自己身邊的人事物，想想誰是身邊的貴人朋友、哪些人深深啟發自己、哪些事物陪伴成長茁壯……(how influential, inspirational or impressive things are)等，以及為什麼的主要理由。

培養自己在觀賞英文電影或影集時（movies or TV shows），聽旁白對人物主角的描述（narrators' words），提供自己在於對不同人物身上，可有些啟發式的腳本，進而作為自己對遇此題目觸類旁通的描述。

模擬題目 Track 01

Question: Who has the greatest influence on your life? Why? Please give specific examples to support your reasons.

對你影響最深的人是誰？為什麼？請提供特定的例子來支持你的理由。

參考範文：

My grandmother Ruth is the person who influenced me the most in my life. She is the most caring, generous, and compassionate person I ever knew. Never did I see her showing less concern and loving care to whoever she met. One day of my childhood, an old lady whom I never saw came to our house to show her gratitude for the help she got from my grandmother ten years ago. Besides, she was also energetic and hard-working as well. She assisted my grandfather with his leadership and management of the whole village: a very great and humble example she set for all of our family members to follow in life. Her faithful attitude toward the world inspires me to act with sincerity and enthusiasm towards whichever matters. If there's anyone who ever dives that deep into my life, no one can overpass her influence on me.

中文翻譯：

Ruth祖母是影響我生命最深的人，她為人體貼、康慨、有同理心，無人能比。對任何人，我從沒看她少付出過關懷。在我兒時的一天，一位我從未謀面的女士出現在我家門口，她是要來向10年前從祖母那得來的協助表示感謝的。此外，她也是一個充滿活力、認真工作的人。她協助我的祖父引導並管理整個里，這件事為整個家族樹立了很好的模範，值得我們學習。她對世界的虔誠態度啟發了我，讓我對任何事情都抱著真誠和熱情。要說誰對我的生命影響最深，沒有人能超越她對我的影響。

One day of my childhood, an old lady whom I never saw came to our house to show her gratitude for the help she got from my grandmother ten years ago.

→將劃底線的部分改為考生（您）與景仰的人相關的生活經驗，如：

→ When he first saw me, I was a little girl gobbling my ice cream. He told me that I was his imagination coming to life. He has a very strong faith in his movie production industry.

Director Fernando has impressed me the most and inspired me a lot in many aspects of my life. When he first saw me, I was a little girl gobbling my ice cream. He told me that I was his imagination coming to life. He has very strong faith in his movie production industry. A gentleman like him with generous and friendly manners never fails in showing his genuine talent at film productions. His works present the true feelings and features of universal human nature. He used to say that the key to success is to never give up our inner childlike heart, and he believes that at certain point of time, life will shine like a supernova along the journey. This kind of positive energy and optimistic attitude surely encourages me whenever I hit some bumpy roads. Thanks to his presence, I earn more than just acting skills.

中文翻譯：

Fernando導演是影響我最深的人，我生命的各個層面都深受他的啟發。他第一次見到我時，我還是大口吃著冰淇淋的小女孩。他說我就像是他想像中的人物。他對他的電影事業有著很深的信念，一個像他這樣慷慨、友善的人，必定也會將他的才華展現在電影製作上。他的作品呈現了人類共有的天性，也就是真誠的感受和特質。他曾說成功的關鍵在於永遠保有我們內在的童心，他也相信在某個時間點，生命會在這趟旅途上像顆超新星一樣，綻放最閃耀的光芒。在我走在顛簸的路上時，這樣正面且樂觀的態度大大鼓舞了我。感謝他的出現，我得到的不只演技，而是更多。
