雅思口语中不能用very修饰的词
1.在只能做表语的形容词前不能用very,而要使用其他的词。
例如:
(1)It's well worth trying.(不能说very worth)这很值得一试。
(2)I'm wide awake.(不能说very awake)我是完全清醒的。
(3)She's fast asleep.(不能说very asleep)她在酣睡。
We are much beholden to you for your help.(不能说very beholden)我们非常感激你给我们的帮助。
(4)He felt quite sure of the appointment.他感到很有把握获得这个职位。
(5)I'm much afraid of snakes.我非常害怕蛇。(口语上也使用very)
类似这样不能和very连用的形容词还有:afloat,alight,alive,alone,alike等。它们可以和much或very much连用。例如:
(1)The two brothers are very much alike.这两兄弟非常相像。
(2)He is very much alive.他非常活跃。
2.在过去分词用作谓语动词时不可和very连用,要用much,very much或quite等说明程度。
例如:
(1)The financial situation seems to be much/very much improved.(不能说very improved)财政状况似乎有很大好转。
(2)Britain's trade position has been much/very much weakened by inflation.通货膨胀很大程度上削弱了英国的贸易地位。
(3)Ted was most surprised when he heard the news.特德听到这个消息很吃惊。
当过去分词指的是一种状态或性质时,可和very连用。
例如:
(1)a very frightened animal一只极度受惊的动物
(2)a very complicated problem一个很复杂的问题
当过去分词用作谓语动词,但表示一个人对某事的反应时,可与very连用。
例如:
(1)We were all very shocked by the news about Tony.我们听到关于托尼的消息都很震惊。
(2)I am very pleased to hear it.听到这话我很高兴。
有些人在这种情况下宁愿用much不用very,但在现代英语非正式文体中常用very。
3.现在分词一般不能和very连用,要用much,quite或其他词。
例如:
The theory sounds quite convincing.这意见听起来很有说服力。
不能说very screaming(尖声喊叫的)children---------必须使用像这样的词continually or loudly screaming children
singing birds也不可说成very singing birds等等。
very只可能和已转用为形容词的现在分词连用,例如:very interesting(很有趣),very exciting(非常令人兴奋)等。
在有的副词前不用very要用well,quite表示“很,非常,完全”之意。
例如:
(1)His name is well up in the list.他的名字排在名单的前面。
(2)He was treated quite fairly.他受到很公平的对待。
动词也不和very连用,要用其他副词,如much/very much和 quite等修饰。
例如:
(1)I should much like to come.我很想来。
(2)They closely resemble each other in appearance.他们的外貌很相似。
(3)By doing so you will greatly oblige us.您这样做将使我们非常感激。
(4)He is well grounded in the English language.他的英语有很好的基础。
雅思口语评分标准详解之发音
“Pronunciation”作为雅思口语四大评分标准之一有着举足轻重的作用。相对于流利度、连贯性、词汇和语法,评分标准中对于语音的描述是最少的,甚至九个分数段中有实质性描述的只有四个分数段,其余的分数段也都是以这四个描述为参考来评分。
但是,在雅思口语考试必须与考官互动的特定模式下,发音的正确与否,标准与否,最能直接影响到考官对考生的印象和理解。不可否认的是,不论是雅思口语,还是新托福口语,只要是练习英语口语,都常常会存在很多语音问题。在此不是专门来做语音方面的研究,而是就考生们平时易犯的发音错误以及习惯性的发音错误作出总结,以便考生们能够查漏补缺,及时更正。
一、地域性发音的影响
很多地方性语言的发音常常会影响到英语语音的学习。当然,这里我们不谈汉语,不谈普通话,只说英语。这一现象体现在英语发音中最突出的当数部分考生”n”和”l”不能很好的区分。一些基本的词汇,尤其以此两个辅音开头的单词,如果发音混淆,则是全然不同的意思,如”nine”和”line”,这样势必会造成考官理解上面的问题。
如果说有时候两个辅音的互换不会产生太大理解方面的问题,但长时间不加以区分,考官听着也会不自觉地产生一种压迫感。下面是一位考生在第二部分描述自己的一位家庭成员时的话,说到她的姐姐像个假小子:… I guess you can imagine that she really looks like a boy. When she was in middle school, she cut down her long hair, started to wear large shirt and became a boyish girl… 如果就这两句话中出现的”l”,发音都换成”n”的音,考官或许能明白,但听起来却比较难受。
二、发不出的“th”
[θ]和[e]两个音标都是”th”的发音,汉语中此种发音方式的缺乏直接导致很多考生从练习口语一开始就发不出这个音。就像很多English native speakers说汉语的“谢谢[xiexie]”会发[?e?e],是因为其中不卷舌的[x]也不存在于他们语言的发音方式中。由此许多单词也会产生意义上的区别如最常提到的”think”和”sink”,造成理解上的障碍。也有的如“with”等不阻碍大意的词,但对两个音的长期忽略同样会造成考官听觉上的不适。
三、重音错置
多考生在平时学习词汇的过程中很容易忽视一些细节,而重音的错置就是其中之一。有的考生在习惯了单词重音为第二个音节之后,对一些重音在单词第一个音节上的细节便视而不见了。例如雅思口语中经常谈论到的”television”, “newspaper”,对于这样熟悉且简单的单词很多考生发出的重音仍然在tele’vision和news’paper上。如此重音错置的例子屡见不鲜,而重音的错误往往会导致整个语句的不顺畅,听起来很别扭。
四、莫名的“r”
雅思口语考试对语音的包容性让很多考生选择了自己喜欢的美式英语,但这也意味着很多考生开始了对“儿化音”的情有独钟。”because”和“of course”并不一样,后者有”r”可以“儿化”;前者却没有,可很多考生都喜欢把它读成[bi’k?rz]。事实上,无论英式还是美式,它都发 [bi’k?z]。”China”, “Christmas”, “August”, ” idea”都是很典型的例子,单词的拼写中红色标记的部分后面并没有”r”,但是考生读出来时却无端产生了”r”的音。
五、经验性判断
有的考生习惯了”nation”, “promotion”,看到”precision”, “decision”的时候觉得也应该发[??n],但事实上这两个单词中”-sion”应该发[??n];”address”这个词大家都很熟悉了,有的考生一直读的是[?d’dres],因为觉得里面有两个”d”,但其实正确的读音当然是[?’dres]。
这只是两个简单的例子,说明自己根据经验来判断和学习新的单词的发音本身是一种不太可取的习惯。当然,事先可以做猜测,但一定要根据字典来确认自己的猜测是否正确,以便一开始学到的就是正确的发音。须知有的单词或音节看起来长得很像,但实际发音却可能有区别,所以千万不能主观臆断。错误的发音如果先入为主,到后面发现自己错了,再纠正也会相对困难了。
上述的错误发音并没有发生频率高低的统计,但肯定是考生发音中最常见的几种错误。虽然有的不会造成理解上较大的阻碍,但过多的重复性失误足以让考生们在这项评分标准中失分。对于这些发音上面所犯的错误,有的考生自己其实并没有察觉到,这就有待身边的人,或者老师,或者同学朋友给予指正。也有的考生觉得遇到某些音要么发不出来,要么自己的舌头或鼻腔就不听使唤;单词的重音一不小心就会发错,但归根到底其实是一开始就没有养成好的发音习惯,在矫正的过程中自己的练习还不足够,因此就达不到语音的流利度。
建议考生,对于语音的培养一定要掌握正确的学习方法,有耐心有毅力。像[θ]和[e]的发音,并不是考生们做不到或做不到位,只是做得少,没有习惯成自然。所以只要能很好地克服从不习惯到习惯的过程中的种.种困难,语音才能被彻底地纠正和标准化。
篇2:雅思口语part1新题及
雅思口语part1新题之:Rainy days 变题不慌!
Rainy days题目参考答案:
1. Do you like rainy days?
No, not that much to be honest with you, because I mean, when it rains, you can’t really do anything outside, unless you don’t mind getting wet of course! And also for me, I find it a bit of a hassle carrying an umbrella around with me everywhere.
I find it a bit of a hassle = I find it an effort = 我觉得有点麻烦
2. What do you do on rainy days?
Well it kind of depends really, because there are some things I have to do regardless of whether it’s raining or not, you know, like going to lectures and stuff. But when I’m free, I tend to just chill out at home if it’s raining. So for example, I might read a book or watch TV, and I’ll only leave the flat if I absolutely have to!
Chill out = relax (used in spoken English)
3. Do you think rain is good?
Yeah, for sure. I mean, for one thing, it helps get rid of all the dust in the air. And secondly, it’s good for the natural environment. You know, it helps all the plants and vegetation stay alive. So although I don’t particularly like the rain, I understand the need for it!
Vegetation - 植物
4. Does rain ever affect transportation in your hometown?
Yeah, most definitely, because you know, whenever it rains, the traffic always seems to get a lot more congested. I’m not exactly sure why, but I guess it’s probably because cars have to drive slower in the rain.
Congested = 拥挤的,堵塞的
5. Is there any part of China where it doesn't rain much?
Yeah, I’d say there are quite a few areas of the country where it doesn’t rain a lot, the most obvious place being the Gobi Desert, which I guess never gets any rain, what with being a desert and all! And also I’d say the north of China, in general, doesn’t really get all that much rain, at least compared with the south, so a lot of that part of the country is quite dry and arid.
The Gobi Desert戈壁
What with it being a desert and all – 毕竟是个沙漠!
On the whole – 基本上,总的来说
Arid – 干燥
另一版本答案:To tell you the truth, I have no clue about this. I do not give a hoot about geography and the amount of rain in my country. I think the most rainfall is in the North where there is an intricate system of rivers.
6. What effects can a shortage of rain have on people’s lives?
Well thinking about it, I suppose one of the biggest affects it can have is on our food supply, because things like fruit and vegetables need water to grow, and rain provides the water. So you know I think it’s pretty safe to say that a shortage of rain is likely to result in a decrease in our overall food supply.
I think it’s pretty safe to say = 我觉得可以说……
Other effects:
It could result in a lack of drinking water
It could result in the government controlling how much water we can use. For example, I think I’m right in saying that in some parts of Australia, people can only spend a certain amount of time each day having a shower!
7. Can you remember a time when it rained particularly heavily in your hometown?
Yeah I can. About a year or so ago, we had, like, several days of torrential rain, almost non-stop, and so the whole of my neighbourhood got flooded. You know, the water was like, up to my knees, and so traffic came to a complete standstill. So yeah, that was probably the worst time I can remember.
About a year or so ago – 一年前左右
Like -(表示思考下面的话或用作口头禅) Some people say “like” when they are thinking about what to say next or because it has become their habit to say it. Torrential rain – 暴雨
The traffic came to a (complete) standstill 交通瘫痪了
So yeah – 所以嗯,所以说呢,(总结的时候可以用这话开头)
8. Do you think the seasons have changed in recent years, compared to the past?
Yeah I’d say they have. You know, I think it’s fair to say the summer has got quite a lot hotter, because I mean, it seems to be hitting 40 degrees every year now, and that definitely wasn’t the case in the past. And also the winter isn’t as cold as it used to be, because you know, if I think back to when I was a child, it used to snow quite a lot during the winter, but now it hardly snows at all.
I think it’s fair to say – 我觉得可以说
It hardly … at all – 几乎不……
that definitely wasn’t the case in the past – 以前绝不是这样的
9. Does it rain a lot in your hometown?
Well, it depends on the season. In winter and spring, there is a dearth of rain associated with the arid weather. In contrast, it is usually raining cats and dogs in summer and august, causing loads of troubles for people travelling on the road.
rainy days相关高分词汇
refreshing 新鲜的e.g.
>>>We find it refreshing to hang out after a rainy day. 雨过之后出门会觉得空气都很新鲜。
2 sticky 湿热的e.g.
>>>I could hardly bear the desperately hot, sticky days in the middle of August. 我几乎受不了8月中旬那种极其湿热的天气。
3 lightning 闪电e.g.
>>>Lightning usually accompanies thunder. 闪电常常伴有雷声。
The rain is coming down, and the lightning hits and there's thunder. 大雨倾盆,电闪雷鸣。
4 deluge 洪水n. 使泛滥v. e.g.
>>>The river deluges the region. 河水淹没了那个地区。
5 a dry spell 干旱,不下雨e.g.
>>>The dry spell quickly diminished our water supply. 干旱期使我们的供水量锐减。
雅思口语题库part1新题配范文:Leisure time(休闲时光)
1.Leisure time(休闲时光)参考答案:
1.What do you do in your spare time?
I love reading and writing when I have some free time available. Apart from these, I also like playing badminton. So, whenever I do get time, I usually read, write or play badminton.
2.What do you do to relax yourself?
For relaxation, I prefer taking a short nap. It could be either for 20 minutes or may be an hour. But, nothing helps me relax better than some sleep.
3.What do you usually spend your weekends?
During the weekdays, most part of the evenings usually gets lost doing the office work. But, during weekends, I work on my blog for the entire day and so during evenings I usually spend some time with my friends, going on long walks together or have dinner at their place.
4.What do you usually do after work or classes?
There is nothing much that can be done after work because it really becomes quite tiring. So, most of the times I am either working on my blog or writing something or some drafts, here and there.
5.Do you prefer staying at home or going out during evenings?
I love taking long walks. So, if I am not busy at something during evenings, I usually take long walks with my friends or for that matter even alone at times.
6.Do you think modern lifestyles give enough time to people for leisure?
I think it depends on the kind of modern lifestyle an individual is leading. So, a person doing a corporate job might have less time to spare for leisure activity but probably a person who does freelancing will find more time to leisure. Not because a work is less time consuming but because the way things get done in each. Even more, I think it all depends on how the person sets priorities for themselves.
7.Do you think people today have more time to relax as compared to that in past?
I certainly believe that people are more busy when compared with their past counterparts. Earlier people lived a content life but with changing times people are less satisfied with what they have and are always on the look out of doing more. This has made lives much more hectic than ever.
8.What do you think is the importance of leisure time in life?
Leisure is the one thing that makes the life worth living. I surely believe that apart from the daily mundane activities a person should always try to do things that makes him or her happy. It could be either something that he or she likes doing or could even be some person one likes spending time with. It is only through this that a person is able to enjoy life.
9.Do you think old and young people spend their leisure time in the same way?
I believe it is not about young and old, it is more about individuals. I have seen old people party harder than some of the young chaps out there and then some young people reading better than the wiser older people. In my opinion, it is all about the individual choices that people make.
10.Do you like to travel in holidays?
Well, I love travelling not only because everyone else does but because for me travelling teaches so much more to me than anything else can ever do. Also, travelling allows me to explore myself and the world in ways that opens up my horizons, giving me a broader aspect of life.
11.If you had a child, what leisure places would you go with your child?
I think I would like to take my child to library and a field ( could be of any game) as part of leisure activity. Also, I would love to travel with my child because in my opinion, a child learns so much more from travelling, history and art than he or she can ever learn from any of the text books or any motivational videos.
12.How much time do you have each week for doing these things?
Well, I do quite a lot of sport actually. I go swimming twice a week. There’s a very good pool just around the corner from my office. I swim for an hour and do about 40 lengths. I also cycle to work when I can. Apart from that, I do a lot of reading and photography.
13.Why do you like doing these activities?
When I was younger, I did a lot of surfing. I used to go snowboarding quite often too in the winter. But I haven’t been for a long time, although I might go this year with some friends. These days I go cycling when I can. At the weekends I like to cook and invite friends around for dinner. I’m a big fan of cooking programs, and often try to copy the recipes, but they don’t always turn out very well.
14.Why do you like doing these activities?
I don’t have a lot of time to myself now that I’m married with two young children. So, a lot of my free time is used taking my kids to their activities. For example, on Saturday morning, I have to take my son to his basketball games, and my daughter to football practice. Then I have to ship them off to parties or friends’ houses. Two or three times a month, my wife and I go for a meal with friends, and once a month, we go the cinema when my parents look after the kids. There’s a great little cinema that shows independent or foreign films just near where we live.
15.How did you start doing this activity at first?
I have tennis lessons with a group of friends at the weekend. There are eight of us, four moms and dads and four kids. The idea was that the lessons would give us the chance to do something sporty with our children, and it’s great. The teacher is really good and we all have a fantastic time. Plus, we’re getting better at tennis. Best of all, after an hour of tennis, the kids go off to play, and we can have a drink and a chat. Now, that’s my idea of playing sport. Apart from that, I also go out bowling once a month.
16.Is there some other hobby or sport you would like to try? Why?
I play golf at the weekend. I get up really early on Sunday and play for about five hours with some friends from work. While I’m out, my husband prepares lunch which is usually ready by the time I get back. Apart from that, I play online video games and read a lot. Also, I go for a drink after work every Friday with my work colleagues. There’s a pub nearby and we usually stay there for a couple of hours, which is good fun.
17.How do you spend your time in the evening?
In the evening, I love to play music and listen to some old Bollywood songs from my favourite song collection. It just refreshes my mind, keeping me away for a while, from tension arising due to the daily routine work. I think it is a good leisure activity that makes you stay away from everyday’s stress.
18.Do you do this every evening?
Not every evening but most of the times, I prefer to listen to my favourite songs. However, whenever I find some work to do at home in the evening, I avoid doing this. Apart from that, I sometimes like to stroll around the city along with my friends whenever I don’t get a chance to go for a morning walk.
19.What do you like to do in the weekends?
On Saturday, I often go for watching movies along with my family members but on Sunday, I do not like to do any activity outside and I rather play games with my kids. Nowadays, it is really essential to devote some time for your kids and this is the reason why I prefer spending time with them.
20.Is there any difference in your life now from when you were a child?
Absolutely yes, there are huge differences! Since I am now a married person with kids to take care of, I do not get enough time for fun and entertainment related activities. But when I was a child, I always used to play games with my childhood friends outside my home in a large playground, for example, we used to enjoy playing cricket vigorously. Moreover, life used to be tension free but now, it is full of stress.

Nowadays, pretty much everything.

I can achieve more in my life thanks to computers - all that information is instantly accessible on the internet, which makes so many things easier and I suppose the biggest impact of all is the way computers have really changed the way we live, the way we interact with each other and how we do things.
14.What computer skill(s) would you like to learn?
Yeah, I'd really like to learn computer animation and graphics someday, but I think it takes a long time to learn all the necessary techniques and then practice creating such things. It would be nice though, because it looks so interesting when you see someone else doing it.
雅思口语题库part1必考话题:Work&study(学习工作)
1.相关Work&study话题及参考示例:
work
1. Do you work or study?
· I graduated a few years ago and I’m now in full time employment.
2. What is your job?
· I’m currently an English teacher working for the British Council in Ho Chi Minh City.
3. Why did you choose that job?
· I was previously a lawyer and found it to be really stressful and never had any free time, so after quitting that job I thought teaching might be the complete opposite of being a lawyer, you know not as stressful and more time off.
4. Are there lots of English teachers in Ho Chi Minh City?
· Oh yes! There is a such a big demand for English as a second language here and it’s also quite a cheap place to live compared to many other big cities in Asia.
5. Do you enjoy your job?
· Most of the time. It’s very rewarding to be able to help people every day and the students here are very hardworking and fun to teach, but you sometimes have lessons that do go so well and the money could always be better.
6. Do you get on well with your co-workers?
· Yes, fine. I don’t really see work as part of my social life, so I don’t socialise with them, so I suppose I could be more friendly, but it’s just my nature to be a bit colder with colleagues. I think it’s more professional to be that way.
7. What was your first day at work like?
· There were lots of teachers starting at the same time as me, 10 I think, so we all had a big induction day. The more senior teachers ran workshops with us to familarise us with the different systems they had and then we went for a team dinner in the evening.
8. What responsibilities do you have at work?
· All of the teachers main responsibility is to plan good lessons and then teach them to the best of our ability. On top of that we have several admin. tasks to carry out like mark homework, fill out attendance sheets and write reports.
9. Would you like to change your job in the future?
· Yes, as I said before, I like working by myself, so I would like to be my own boss. I’m currently developing my own website, so if it’s successful I will leave teaching and work on it full time. This will also give me more time to work on other projects.
10. What is your typical day like in work?
· I normally have 2 or 3 classes in the evening and I start the day by doing all the planning at home. This normally takes between an hour or two depending on the lessons. I then take the rest of the day to spend with my family, before going to work around 3 to print off my materials and then I teach all evening.
11. What would you change about your job?
· As with most English teachers, we have to teach what is on the curriculum and this can mean that you are teaching some things that are quite boring or not very useful for your students, so I would like to have more freedom to teach outside the syllabus.
12. What do you do?
13. Presently, I am working with Fox Traveller as a host for their show that involves travelling around India and discovering its culture and people. We already have covered the southern part of India and now we shall be moving towards the eastern part. The show will go on air in January next year.
14. What are your responsibilities at your work place?
15. My main objective is to make sure that we get the information required. So, for instance, if we are travelling to Mysore, instead of talking about the places everyone goes, I need to make sure we cover the places no one ever has. Like the best and the cheapest place to eat. It requires lot of research and I mostly go to the place 10 days before our team arrives.
16. How many hours do you work each day?
17. Well, we don’t have any particular routine. Sometimes the work demands us to work ten hours, sometimes more than that, sometimes less. So, it is all on the location and the time it requires to give us the required information. Also, for me this is something that I love, so mostly work doesn’t seems like work.
18. Do you enjoy your work?
19. Oh! I love it. The feeling that you get after meeting so many people and talking with them and realizing how happy they are after all the issues they have. I remember we went out to shoot a village in Mysore and initially we thought the people would be very unhappy because of the limitations they had, but to our surprise they were all very happy and it was fun knowing their ways of living.
20. If given a chance to change your work place, would you do that?
21. At present, my workplace is great for me. I am loving the people I work with and enjoy the work that I am doing. So as of now, I don’t see myself changing the place. But, may be after some time, if the work is getting repetitive or there is no more learning for me, I may change.
22. Is there some other kind of work you would prefer to do?
23. I surely love the work that I do, but may be if time allows, instead of hosting shows I would prefer writing about my experiences of the places I visit. May be because when one writes a lot more gets expressed which is not possible why saying things off in television.
24. If you could change your profession, what would you do?
25. Well, I think may be I will open a company that gives equal education rights to people. While travelling, I realized that there are so many children who don’t get education, and even if they get it is not of good quality. So, I will open a business that provides good quality education to people who cannot afford it.
雅思口语题库part1必考话题:names 名字
1.相关话题及参考示例:
1 How did your parents choose your name?
To be truthful, I’m not sure how they chose it; I’ve never asked them. I suppose it was just a name that they both liked, and maybe they thought it suited me.
2 Does your name have any special meaning?
版本1:I think it might do, but I don’t know what that meaning is; I’ve never looked it up. Maybe I’ll google it later today; you’ve made me curious to find out!
版本2:My name is definitely very special to me! Well, the name Peter itself has a special meaning and historical significance. The word 'Peter' was derived from a Greek word 'petros' which means 'stone' or 'rock'. Based on the New Testament, Jesus Christ gave the name Saint Peter to Simon and he later became the Saint Peter. Saint Peter, according to ancient tradition, became the first bishop of Rome. So religiously and historically this name bears a great significance, I presume.
3 Is your name common or unusual in your country?
Yes, it’s quite a common name. I remember that there were two other people with the same name as me in my class at school.
4 If you could change your name, would you?
Not at all, I definitely wouldn’t. My name is part of my identity now, and it would feel strange to suddenly change it. I don’t think my friends and family would like that either.
5 What is your (full) name? Does your name have any special meaning?
My full name is Nguyen Thi Hong. My parents gave me that name.In English, Hong means “Pink” which is a very bright color. So I guess my parents wanted to have a cheerful and successful life.
6 And what would you like me to call you?
A. Oh, you can call me by my first name which is Jincy.
7 What is the meaning of your given name?
A. I am not quite 100% sure but I heard from my mother that the meaning of my name is Cute. So I would infer that the word “Jincy” means something beautiful!
8 Does your name affect your personality?
A. I don’t believe that only a name can affect someone’s personality. My personality is quite a different arena and it has nothing to do with my name.
9 Why do so many people change their names?
版本1:I am not sure about other countries but in Vietnam, I think most people change their names because these names are not really appropriate nowadays.
版本2:Well, that's an interesting question and personally, I scarcely know my friends or relatives who have changed their names. But I am sure people mostly changes their names because they do not like their given name. Migration to other countries could be another prominent reason for people to change their names. For instance, I know a person who lives in London as Christopher whose original name was something like Lie Chim. Finally, changing someone's religion could be another reason for a name change. Personally, I would always like my given name and in no condition change it!!!
版本3:I am not sure about other countries but in Vietnam, I think most people change their names because these names are not really appropriate nowadays. In the past, most of Vietnamese parent wanted their children to have a short and funny name so that they could bring them up more easily. However, today it sounds quite odd and not appropriate and they believe that more suitable names will bring them good fortune. So I guess that is the most popular reason why people changed their names.
10 Is your name important to you?
A. Yes, definitely my name is truly important to me. This is the name that my parents gave to me and I would like to be 'Peter' for the rest of my life. I have known this name from the very first day I came to this world and the very sound Peter has quite a charming melody to my ears. I once heard that an average human hears his name the highest time in his lifetime. If this is true, I have heard the word 'Peter' more than any other word and I do not want to change my given name in any condition.
