先回答你的问题,本科期间有很鲜艳的履历当然会成为你的加分项,但是像你说过的奖学金或者省赛国赛没有的话也不用担心,因为在本科阶段有突出成就的学生大多已经保研,大多数还是相当于站在了同一起跑线上。说句通俗的大白话,只要在复试中好好表现,向导师证明你努力学习的决心,展示出你有学习的能力,而不是扶不起的烂泥,照样能够在复试中脱颖而出!
如下告诉你复试的注意事项,快拿起你的小本本!
一、复试材料准备

三、专业课的备战须知
四、英语口语的备战须知
英语口语同样是复试必考项,能够反应一个考生的外语水平。对英语口语的练习不能急于求成,要日积月累每天坚持练习。给你的建议是把考研复试的常考话题整理成一个文档作为语料库,每天对着镜子重复练习每一个话题。同时最好找一个伙伴每天监督对练,这样还能让你提前适应考试的紧张感。总之英语口语就一个字“练”,只有每天不停地练才能达到炉火纯青的效果。

Q1: What are your strengths and weaknesses?(你的优缺点)
When it comes to my strengths, I would like to describe it with three key words: patience, diligence, and endurance.
I am a patient man/girl, because I know good things take time, especially in academic paper or research work. Diligence is my constant belief. I never get up late and almost devote most of time to study, because I believe if a person is not born to be intelligent, at least you must make sure you are diligent. That is the key to your further study in the future.
I also have a remarkable endurance. I can stand a long- time reading and researching work. Without a strong endurance, a student can not bear the solitude and boredom, therefore will not go further in the academic world.
(缺点如实说,但有些缺点不能说,如拖延症procrastination、懒惰laziness、没有规划lack of the overall plan)
In terms of my weakness, I am not good at relieving my pressure, which derives from my high requirements about myself. I allow no more leisure in my life, so sometimes I felt tired physically and mentally.
Last month, I have read some books to learn some hints to make a better balance between study and rest and I believe the future will witness my progress to overcome my shortcoming.
But actually to be an outstanding person, you must stand up with some unbearable pressure. No achievement is obtained in leisure and pleasure.
Q2: What has been your greatest accomplishment?(你最大的成就是什么)
回答思路:多谈学习和学术方面的
1. 大赛获奖:I have won the championship in the XXX national competition.
2. 发表论文:I have published a thesis named _____on the academic journal of SCI.
3. 奖学金:I have won the_____ scholarship.
(国家奖学金National scholarship、国家励志奖学金National Encouragement scholarship、一等奖学金first-class/prize scholarship)
4. 学生干部:I was elected as Excellent Student leader in Student Union.
展开谈谈学生干部的成就:
During my term as the president of Student Union, I have read some classical books concerning management and leadership.
From zero to one, I have known how to organize a program, how to communicate with different types of person, how to explore the potential of myself and others, and how to appreciate myself and others' merits.
顺带提提学习给自己带来的成就感:
It is not only the experience of Student Union, but also what I learn from those books and what I apply to the practice that polish my mind and bring me the sense of fulfillment.
还可以说说志愿活动带给自己的成就感:
To be the member and organizer of volunteer activities has been my greatest accomplishment. It greatly delivers me to touch the real world rather than staying in the college all day long.
The environmental protection activity, community service, and caring for the old exposed me to as much communication, devotion, and the value of youth as possible. It is not what we call the visible accomplishments, but the invaluable and irreplaceable wisdom that I can't obtain from the college.
Q3: What is your greatest strength?(你最大的优点)
I think my greatest strength lies in attention to details and a sense of responsibility. Once I initiate a project, I always try my personal best to make a thorough preparation so as to ensure an optimal effect.
我觉得我最大的优点体现在做事认真负责,一丝不苟。一旦我开始做一个顶目,我总是尽我个人所能去做充分的准备,以确保最佳效果。
Q4: What is your greatest weakness?(你最大的缺点)
Frankly speaking, I am a perfectionist. Like if I were given a task, I would spare no efforts until it reaches my standard of perfection. Also I would pay great attention to details. So at the same time,it is easy for me to get stuck in some dead end,or take significantly unnecessary pains to study some minor or even trivial parts.
坦率来讲,我是一个完美主义者。工作做得不漂亮,我是不会撒手的,我会一直努力去完善直到它达到我的目标为止。并且我对细节十分在意。但同样的我很容易陷入死胡同,钻牛角尖,在一些细枝末节的地方 浪费大量时间和精力。
As for my weakness, sometimes tardiness(拖延) is my biggest problem, so I write down my daily plan and task what I should do in the paper and finish them step by step.
Q5: Describe your personality.(描述一下你的性格)
I am a quite extroverted person,enjoy communicating with people. In my undergraduate years,I always enjoy a harmonious relationship with others and have served as the Excellent Student leader for our class for 4 years.
我是一个很外向的人,喜欢与他人交流。在我大学期间,我总是与同学们和谐相处,并且连续四年被大家选举为优秀学生干部。
Q6: Talk about your hobbies.(谈谈你的兴趣爱好)
音乐:I am fond of music mainly because it can cheer me up greatly when I feel down. Besides, I also believe that music is an indispensable part of culture through which I could have a better understanding of different countries.
读书:I enjoy reading primarily because it cultivates my way of critical and analytical thinking, enriches my knowledge and sets a fire in my mind.
运动: Swimming, is a part of my daily life, since it could relax myself, ease tiredness, release the pressure and keep my body in good shape.
旅游:Through travelling, I could escape from daily life routines, meet different people, experience another culture, obtaining a sense of freshness.
Q1: What do you do during the Spring Festival?(你春节期间在做什么?)
Before the celebration, my family is busy with decorating and cleaning the house and preparing food. We consider this festival a family reunion day. In the New Year's Eve, when family members sit together and watch the evening gala on CCTV 1 and have delicious food and Jiaozi. I get up very early on the first day of New Year praying for good luck, expecting a new year's vigorous beginning.
Q2: Where have you been traveling to? Which place interested you most?(你去那些地方旅行过?最喜欢哪个地方?)
I have been to Beijing, Guangzhou, Shanghai etc. The Great Wall in Beijing interested me most. It was built during the Spring and Autumn Period with the history of 2000 years. It runs across North China like a huge dragon. It winds its way from west to east, across deserts, over mountains, through valleys till at last it reaches to the sea. It is the longest wall on the earth, also one of the wonders of in the world.
Q3: Do you like having a busy life? Why or why not?(你喜欢忙碌的生活吗?为什么?)
Yes, I like a busy life. I prefer to be busy since I am young and energetic.
To be a young man, it is more effective to do something meaningful rather than staying at dormitory or lazing around. If I spend too much time at leisure or neglect my study, life will become monotonous and uninteresting, while making full use of time, I am sure, will bring me a fruitful reward.
Q4: Have you experienced stress at study? How do you handle it?(在学习生活中感受过压力吗?你是如何处理的?)
Definitely I have experienced stress at study in certain situations. For instance, when I am asked to challenge a difficult task, I will be very anxious and stressful. In order to handle the situation, I make a feasible plan for completing the task and try to do a little bit everyday to make the overall workload feel smaller.
Q5: How can you help yourself concentrate when you're studying for a long time ? Why ?(你是如何保持长时间学习的?为什么?)
If I need to study for a whole day, as time progresses, it becomes challenging to focus on my study. I have realized that taking regular breaks during study periods is essential for boosting concentration. Additionally, a short nap will allow my mind to feel refreshed and sharpened in order to pay attention to my studies.
Q6: Do you find it easier to concentrate on study in the morning or in the evening?(你觉得在早上还是晚上学习能更专注?)
For me, it is easier to study in the evenings when the environment is quiet and peaceful. Furthermore, I can focus well on my study without any distractions from roommates or family members. My room is also dark and free of sunlight at this time, allowing me to turn on my desk lamp to work on my studies.
Q7: Do you work better when the room is silent or when there is some noise?(你在何种情况下工作效率更高?房间安静些还是有些噪音?)
I tend to work more effectively when the room is silent since I can focus on what I need to do. If there is noise, it will be quite distracting and difficult for me to concentrate on the task at hand. Furthermore, silence can enable me to think more efficiently and fluidly rather than worrying about disturbances.
Q1: Talk about your family.(谈谈你的家庭)
My family has three members, my Dad, my Mum and me. My father is 职业1, and my mom is 职业2 and I am going to get my bachelor degree and about to start my postgraduate study in XX.
My family is warm and harmonious, my parents are both diligent and kind. They let me know how to be independent and persistent. During my preparation for coming here, my parent's support has always been my power and I hope in the future I will be able to repay them.
Q2: What do you think about living together with your parents?(你如何看待和父母生活在一起)
I think living with my parents offers a lot of benefits, like they could take care of everything for me such as diet and daily life, so I can focus on my study better. However, if I don't live with them, I can enjoy better privacy, freedom and independence, so given the choice, I will still choose to live alone.
Q1: Tell something about hometown.(介绍一下你的故乡)
My hometown is located in the northern/southern/western/eastern part of China. It stands beside XX and abundant in XX. It is a large/medium/small city with XX. When it comes to my hometown XX, XX will be the first thing that comes into people’s mind. If you get a chance to come here, it’s my pleasure to be your guide.
Q2: Tell me something about the customs of your hometown.(介绍一下你家乡的习俗吧)
Temple fair(庙会), usually held outside temples, is a kind of folk custom in my hometown. During the some important festivals, temple fair is one of the most important activities, in which there are such performances as acrobatics and Wushu, numerous kinds of local snacks and many kinds of things for everyday life. In my hometown, the temple fair has become a place for people to appreciate the traditional art and experience the traditional life.
Q1: Tell me something about your university. What qualifications have you obtained?(谈谈你的本科大学,你在大学获得了哪些能力?)

Q2: What is your major? How do you like your major?(你的专业如何)
My major is environmental engineering, a subject links the past, the present and the future, also a subject associating people with the earth. I like my major , because first it helps me to get to know XXX; second, a chance to explore the useful measures of XXX, finally I think based on the knowledge we acquired from classes, we can make contribution to the development of XXX.
Q3: Why did you choose our university?(为什么选择我们学校)
减分答题思路:
1.本科学校不好;
2.专业不喜欢;
3.不是当年高考一志愿;
4父母的意愿。
【加分思路:因为学术】
The first time I get to know our university is in my freshmen stage. I read an thesis from Professor Wu, (最好加上论文的标题), inspired and enlightened by his unique and creative viewpoints.
I also read an experience article from Internet. It introduced and recommended our university in three parts: key subjects, spirit of our university, and some brilliant teachers, which exerted a great fascination to me.
So I have a strong faith and desire to continue my postgraduate study here, acquire further knowledge and to be a better self not only academically, but also comprehensively. The most important thing in the world, is not where we are, but which direction we are moving in.
Q6: Why do you want to be a postgraduate?(为什么想成为研究生)
The first reason is that I have a strong passion to further explore the major knowledge. The undergraduate study is mainly concerned the basic knowledge and general theory. If we do not go further and deeper, the basic knowledge will perish quickly after graduation rather than become the solid major foundation. For example, if you do not research the definition ____ from papers in SCI, you will not know it can ____ .
To be a postgraduate student really means a lot to me, which is the result of long-term effort of day and night, the persistence of never-giving-up, the excitement of getting to know the score, and the deep understanding of my pursuit. If I fail finally, I will never regret, because regret could not grow in a devoted heart.
Q7: Why do you choose this major?(为什么选择这个专业)
【本专业版】
It is the constant interest and passion that motivates me to choose this major continuously. Interest is the best teacher. At the first class in the freshmen, I was attracted by ____(专业的名词), which spread out a charming map before me. In this map, I am exposed to the world of A, B, and C(专业名词的定义).
From A, I have learned that__
From B, I have noticed that__
They all bring me enormous passion to make a deep exploration in this field. In the past preparation year, __ and __ have became my major interest orientation. The theory of ____ made me realize only by academic insight can you come into its fantastic world.
So I choose it only for my own interest and passion rather than the consideration of future career. Benjamin Franklin ever said, "An investment in knowledge pays the best interest." I totally agree with it. To be a postgraduate, the main focus on knowledge and the constant passion on major should be the basic guides.
【跨专业版】
This major, ___ actually exerts great fascination on me in the undergraduate stage. Compared with my original major __ , it has two unique characteristics that appeal to me most.
First one is its practicality. The significance of academic research partly lies in its application in the practice, which can settle some unsolved problems in this field. For example, ___.
Second one is its adaptability to the modern society. The development of academic theory of ___ surely will contribute to the ___ .
Besides, I believe my interest and passion in this field will be the motivating power to overcome some predicable difficulties. New choice can be regarded as a new journey.
Q1: Would you please give me some reasons for taking postgraduate exams?(为什么考研?)
There are several reasons accounting for my endeavor.
First and foremost, I have been deeply impressed by the long history, good reputation and rigorous academic atmosphere in this university. Second, I long for doing research in XX学校 throughout my life. It’s a pleasure to be here with my favorite supervisor for lifetime. The third one is that I think further study is still urgent for me to realize self-value. Life is precious. It’s necessary to seize any chance for self-development, especially in this competitive modern world.
In a world, I am looking forward to making a solid foundation for future profession after three years’ study here.
Q2: What's your study plan if you are accepted as a postgraduate student?(如果你被录取为研究生,在未来你有什么计划吗)
First, I hope I can form systematic view of 你的专业名称 . As for my plans, my express wish is to get a complete comprehension of the formation and development. If possible, I will go on with my study for doctorate degree.
In a world, I am looking forward to making a solid foundation for future profession after three years’ study here.
Q3: What would you do if you lost the chance to be a postgraduate student?(如果你没有成为研究生,你会怎么办?)
I will choose to restart my journey to postgraduate exam. Because to be a postgraduate student of XX university is my long-term dream, and difficulty and failure could not take my courage away. Through the preparation of last whole year, I have understood my deficient parts and grasp the key to improvement. I can accept failure, everyone fails at something. But I can't accept not trying.
Q1: What do you think have been the most important changes in your study field over the past 5 years?(你认为在过去的5年中,专业领域内最大变化是什么)
In the past 5 years, a lot of researchers have put forward xxx theory in our research field, which has totally changed or enriched the previous theory system in that area.
In 2015, Professor A's theory __, filled the blank of ___ field. Two years later, Professor B from__ proposed____ the theory of __, which aroused the great controversy.
That is the interesting point of academic study. It seems like there is no absolute right answer, which brings more space for the young man like me to imagine, explore and discover.
Q2: Besides your major books, which book do you like most?(除了专业书籍,你还喜欢什么书)
When it comes to the book I like most, I guess it is Walden written by Henry David Thoreau.Thoreau is best known for his book Walden, a reflection upon simple living in natural surroundings. The book was written in the middle of the 19th century when the capitalism experienced a rapid development and when most people pursued at their utmost to obtain higher social statues and money.
It is a book about man, what he is and what he should be and must be. Thoreau has faith in the inner virtue and inward spiritual grace of man. He hold the most important thing for men to do with their lives is to be self-sufficient and strive to achieve personal spiritual perfection.
Walden is not written to instruct, but to inspire. Through the reading of it, I may see that there are still several more lives to live.
Q1: Do you think advertising plays an important role in today's society? Why or why not?
Certainly, advertising plays an essential role in society because it is everywhere. Wherever we look, we can see it in the newspapers, magazines, television, the Internet even public transportation.
