Q1: Thank you for agreeing to participate. I'd like to ask you some questions about your experiences with gardening. First, do you have a garden or any plants that you take care of? If so, how often do you spend time gardening, and if not, why? （重复2月）

参考答案

To be honest, I don't have a large outdoor garden, but I do have several indoor plants in my room that I take care of.

I usually spend about 30 minutes a week watering them and checking their leaves. It’s a very peaceful activity for me. Since I have a busy schedule with my schoolwork, taking care of these plants helps me unwind and feel closer to nature.

What’s more, it’s an effective way to improve my living environment. The natural green color makes my room feel more vibrant and cozy.

So, I believe having some greenery at home is essential for a balanced lifestyle.

Q2: Thank you! What kinds of plants or gardens have you seen or heard about that you found interesting or appealing? Describe them and talk about why you found them interesting or appealing.

参考答案

To be honest, I don't have a large garden, but I’m really fond of cacti. I find them very appealing for a few reasons.

First, they are incredibly low-maintenance. As someone with a busy schedule, I don't always have time for complicated gardening. Cacti only need a little water and plenty of sunlight, which makes them the perfect plants for my room.

Second, I find their appearance quite unique and artistic. They come in all shapes and sizes, and some even have beautiful flowers.

So I think cacti are the ideal choice for my life.

Q3: Interesting! What challenges do you think people face when trying to grow plants or maintain a garden?

参考答案

In my opinion, people face several common challenges when it comes to gardening.

Second, limited space is a major issue, especially for those living in big cities. Most people only have a small balcony or a windowsill, which makes it hard to grow a variety of plants.

Overall, gardening is not easy. It requires a lot of time, patience and space.

Q4: Great! Some people believe that gardening can have positive effects on personal mental health and well-being. Do you agree or disagree with this viewpoint? Why?

参考答案

I totally agree. I think gardening is great for our mental health for two simple reasons.

First, it helps relieve academic pressure. For example, when I’m tired of studying or doing homework, gardening is the best way to forget my worries. It allows me to focus on the plants and clear my mind, which is very relaxing.

Second, it gives us a sense of achievement. Specifically, when you see a small seed grow into a flower or a plant, you feel very proud and happy. This small success can make us feel much better about ourselves.

So, gardening benefits us a lot.

Q1: Thank you for joining the study. I'd like to ask you about leisure activities. First, do you usually spend your leisure or free time indoors or outdoors? Tell me more about that.（重复5月）

参考答案

I usually spend my free time outdoors.

First, being outdoors helps me relax after studying for a long time. For example, I like taking walks in parks or around the city because fresh air helps me clear my mind and reduce stress.

Second, outdoor activities give me opportunities to spend time with friends and stay active. For instance, I sometimes go sightseeing, take photos, or explore new places on weekends.

So, I generally prefer spending my leisure time outdoors.

Q2: Can you describe one of your favorite leisure activities and explain why you enjoy it?

参考答案

One of my favorite leisure activities is dancing. I enjoy it because it allows me to relax and take a break from my studies. When I'm dancing, I can focus on the music instead of worrying about homework or exams. 

Another reason I like it is that it gives me a chance to meet new people. I've met many friends through dance events, and I've had a lot of memorable experiences. That's why dancing is probably my favorite way to spend my free time.

Q3: Do you prefer to engage in th e same leisure activities over and over or do you regularly seek out new activities? Why?

参考答案

I prefer to engage in the same leisure activities over and over.

One reason is that I already know what I enjoy, so I can spend my free time doing something that makes me happy. For example, I really enjoy dancing, and every time I attend a dance event, I have a great experience.

Also, doing the same activity regularly allows me to improve my skills. The more time I spend dancing, the better I become, which makes the activity even more enjoyable.

So, I prefer sticking with the leisure activities that I already enjoy.

Q4: Some people believe that regularly engaging in leisure activities is important for mental health. What are your thoughts on this? How do leisure activities impact your own well-being?

参考答案

I completely agree that regularly engaging in leisure activities is important for mental health.

One reason is that leisure activities help people reduce stress. For example, students often feel pressure from homework and exams, so spending time on hobbies can help them relax and recharge.

Another reason is that leisure activities can improve people's mood and overall well-being. For instance, when I go dancing, I feel happier and more energetic afterward. It also gives me an opportunity to socialize and enjoy myself.

So, I think leisure activities play an important role in maintaining good mental health.

Q1: Thank you for signing up for the research study. I'd like to ask you a few questions about climate. What is the climate like in the city where you live?

参考答案

The climate in my city is generally mild and comfortable. We have four distinct seasons, so the weather changes throughout the year.

In the summer, it can be quite hot and humid, while winters are usually cool but not extremely cold. We also get a fair amount of rain, especially during certain seasons.

Personally, I enjoy the climate because it allows people to participate in different outdoor activities throughout the year. So, I would say the weather in my city is fairly pleasant

Q2: Thank you. How do you prepare when the weather forecast says it will rain?

参考答案

When the weather forecast says it will rain, I usually make a few simple preparations.

For example, I bring an umbrella or wear a waterproof jacket before leaving home. I also check my schedule and try to avoid outdoor activities if possible.

In addition, I may leave home a little earlier because traffic is often heavier on rainy days, and public transportation can be delayed.

So, I mainly prepare by bringing rain gear and adjusting my plans for the day.

Q3: Great. Next question. Would you prefer to live in a city with a mild, consistent climate or a city with four distinct seasons? Please explain your preference.

参考答案

I would prefer to live in a city with four distinct seasons.

One reason is that each season offers different experiences and activities. For example, in the summer, people can go swimming or hiking. In the fall, they can enjoy the colorful leaves and go sightseeing. In the winter, they can go skiing or ice skating.

I also think having different seasons makes life more interesting. When the weather changes throughout the year, people can enjoy different scenery, clothing, and activities.

So, I would rather live in a city with four distinct seasons.

Q4: Interesting. What measures do you think governments should take to mitigate the effects of extreme weather?

参考答案

I think governments should invest more in infrastructure to reduce the impact of extreme weather.

For example, they can improve drainage systems to prevent flooding during heavy rain and strengthen buildings to make them more resistant to storms and strong winds.

Governments should also provide accurate weather forecasts and early warning systems. This allows people to prepare in advance and stay safe during extreme weather events.

So, I think improving infrastructure and strengthening emergency warning systems are two effective ways to deal with extreme weather.

Q1: Thanks for being willing to help us out. I'd like to ask you some questions about your experiences with nature and the outdoors. First, if you had the chance to spend more time outdoors, what would you want to do?（重复五月）

参考答案

If I had the chance to spend more time outdoors, I would probably go hiking more often.

Firstly, I enjoy hiking because it allows me to experience nature and take a break from my daily routine. For example, when I'm surrounded by mountains, trees, and fresh air, I feel much more relaxed and refreshed.

Secondly, I also like hiking because it is a good form of exercise. It helps me stay active while enjoying beautiful scenery at the same time.

So, if I had more free time, I would like to spend it hiking outdoors.

Q2: Great, thanks. And now can you tell me how do you usually feel while you're outdoors compared to when you're indoors.

参考答案

I usually feel better when I'm outdoors than when I'm indoors.

One reason is that being outdoors helps me relax and reduce stress. For example, after studying for a long time, taking a walk outside helps me clear my mind and feel more refreshed.

Another reason is that I enjoy being surrounded by nature. Fresh air and natural scenery make me feel happier and more energetic, while staying indoors for too long can sometimes feel boring.

So, I generally feel more relaxed and energized when I'm outdoors.

Q3: Got it. And in your view, do you think avoiding spending time outdoors in nature makes a difference in people's health and well-being? Why or why not?

参考答案

Yes, I think it does make a difference.

To begin with, spending time in nature can have a positive effect on people's mental health. After a stressful day at school or work, being outdoors allows people to relax and clear their minds.

In addition, outdoor environments often encourage people to be more physically active. Activities such as walking, hiking, or cycling can improve fitness and help people maintain a healthier lifestyle.

That's why I believe spending time outdoors is important for both physical and mental well-being.

Q4: OK, last question. Do you think outdoor spaces should be free for everyone to use or is it acceptable to charge fees? Why?

参考答案

I think outdoor spaces should be free for everyone to use.

To begin with, public parks and outdoor spaces provide people with opportunities to relax, exercise, and spend time with their families. If fees are required, some people may not be able to afford them and would miss out on these benefits.

What's more, outdoor spaces contribute to public health. For example, people can walk, jog, or play sports there, which encourages a healthier lifestyle and can reduce stress.

For these reasons, I believe outdoor spaces should remain free and accessible to everyone.

Q1: Who do you live with, and what do you enjoy most about living with them?

参考答案

I currently live with my family, including my parents.

What I enjoy most is that they are very supportive. For example, whenever I have difficulties with my studies or feel stressed about exams, they always encourage me and give me helpful advice.

I also enjoy spending time with them. We often have meals together and talk about our day, which helps us stay close.

That's what I enjoy most about living with my family.

Q2: Who usually does the household chores in your home? Do you help with them?

参考答案

In my home, household chores are usually shared among family members.

My parents take care of most of the major chores, such as cooking and cleaning. However, I also help whenever I can. For example, I sometimes wash the dishes, tidy up my room, or take out the trash.

Although I'm often busy with schoolwork and exam preparation, I think it's important to contribute and help my family.

So, household chores are shared in my family, and I do my part to help.

Q3: Some people think all family members should share household chores equally, while others believe chores should depend on age and responsibilities. What is your opinion and why?

参考答案

I believe household chores should depend on people's age and responsibilities rather than being shared equally.

For example, adults usually have more experience and may be better at handling certain tasks, while children can help with simpler chores such as cleaning their rooms or taking out the trash.

In addition, family members often have different schedules. Someone who is busy with work or school may have less time available, so it makes sense to divide chores according to each person's situation.

That's why I think household chores should be shared fairly, but not necessarily equally.

Q4: Some people believe modern appliances make household chores easier, while others think they encourage people to become lazy. Do you agree or disagree? Why?

参考答案

I disagree with this viewpoint.

To begin with, modern appliances save a lot of time and effort. For example, washing machines and dishwashers can complete tasks much faster than doing them by hand, allowing people to focus on work, study, or other important responsibilities.

Another advantage is that appliances can reduce physical strain. For instance, cleaning a large house or washing clothes by hand can be tiring, but appliances make these tasks much easier, especially for elderly people.

For these reasons, I believe modern appliances improve people's quality of life rather than encouraging laziness.
