　　1. How would you define the word, success?

　　2. Has the meaning of success changed in your country in recent years?

　　3. What are the necessary qualities for a person to be successful?

　　4. How to reward successful people?

　　思路解析：成功的话题在part 2讨论都还是比较简单的，因为是描述具体的事件，可能加上一些个人感受就会是很不错的答案了。但是到了part 3 以后讨论一下子变得抽象了，深入了，同时考生们发现泛泛地说几句之后没话说了。这里不妨记住几个要点：

　　第一，part 3考察的是你对于抽象问题展开讨论的能力，所以对于不同类型的问题，能否用相对应的句型结构去作答是我们应当去关注的一个要点。

　　其次成功的话题，其实在这样一个价值观相对单一的社会(a shared value community),其实大家的观点是比较一致的，那么在考场相对紧张的思考时间里，并不用刻意的去创新观点。原因很简单，你去创新了以后，还是需要去证明，这个时候可能没有办法很好的去说明，反而显得观点非常牵强。

　　1. How would you define the word, success?

　　对于成功的定义，类似的提问方法可能还有 How to measure a person's success? What kind of person would you consider successful? 但是要注意这里的落脚点是you,也就是说我们可以说不同人对于成功的不同定义，比如有的人觉得金钱money，名誉fame/reputation，社会地位social status很重要，也有人觉得在自己的领域做到最好be the best in something, 可能是商业领域business field，学术领域academic field等等就是成功。当然还有的人觉得家人朋友幸福平安健康，自己每天很充实得度过也种成功。那么你觉得成功是什么呢?

　　可以落实到一些具体的小事件上，比如经过自己的努力通过英语四六级(pass the CET band 4 or 6)，减肥成功(lose weight),戒烟成功(quit smoking)，改掉拖延(procrastination)的坏习惯等等。一定是具体的事件比较好展开。

　　但是由于part 3本身也会考察同学们逻辑思维的能力，所以适当的总结是非常必要的。

　　Undoubtedly, different person holds different views about success. I guess the majority people would consider success equal money, fame, reputation, and high social status. But I do know some people who pursue different kinds of things, for example, some scholars, they would regard the success as one tiny bit of development in knowing more about the world, in exploring more about the knowledge boundary of human beings. For me, one common creature of a million, I think success means going to bed with this sense of achievement and fulfillment every single day.

　　引申话题

　　Do you think you are a successful person?

　　这里可以在刚刚做的题目基础上扩展延伸下。再次加强自己的观点，如果说刚刚是用对比分类的方法，那么现在就需要大家在之前的基础上适当概括下了。

　　Well, I have to say i feel I am very successful because my life is on track，and though I have not achieved as much as I would like to have achieved, I am still contented with what I HAVE done. You know, I have been to many countries, and seen lots of the world; I could play a little bit guitar, dance a little tango. Though I haven't made a lot money, but I feel spiritual success, and I guess that's especially important in today's materialistic world.

　　语言点提示：

　　on track 走上正轨

　　tango 探戈舞

　　materialistic world 物质世界

　　2. Has the meaning of success changed in your country in recent years?

　　变化题是我们part 3的又一大典型题目，对于这种类型的题目，一定要注意时态，同时注意使用各种连接对比的表达，如whereas, while， by contrast等等。这类型的题目的基本答题模式为：回答YES/NO，描述过去whereas描述现在，最后如果考官不打断你，可以适当总结，加强一下自己的观点。

　　No, I wouldn't say that. As you know, the community we live today shares the same value. Money and fame equal success. The symbols of success might have changed over the years, but the essence remains the same. For example, in the past, professions like doctors, teachers, and public servants are highly respected and regarded as successful while nowadays, anyone with money will be considered successful. The usual token of that is big house, luxury cars and so on. I guess, that does not change at all.

　　引申话题

　　In you society, how is a person's status evaluated?

　　此题其实跟上面一题的思路和答案是比较类似的，人的社会地位是怎么被评价的呢?可以通过在各自领域取得的成绩，或者通过外在的各种评价标准，物质财富。

　　Well, generally speaking, a person's status is evaluated by his achievement in his/her particular career or field. For example, we could say a writer is successful if his works is well recognized by readers and even get some international rewards, such as Nobel Prize for literature. Also if he or she, through hardworking, creates a large amount of wealth, that is also another standard to evaluate his/her status.
