making a list 列清单这个事情，我可是深有感触。作为一个喜欢快速解决事情的人来说，带着清单去超市是我经常在国外干的事情（超市太大品牌太多啦）；但是，我的好朋友Janie，是一个热衷于逛超市且没有购物目标的女孩子：在陪着她逛了2h超市而购物车空空之后，我决定每一次的purchasing activities采购活动我都要进行列清单的准备工作。

　　那这次，考官是想和你们一起购物么？哦不是，其实要问你们是不是会带着购物清单去购物啦！

　　题目如下：

　　“

　　Do you make a list when you shop?

　　Do you make a list for your work? (Does it work?)

　　Why don't some people like making lists?

　　Do you prefer to make a list on paper or your phone?

　　”

　　那我们一起来看看怎么回答这个part 1吧！

　　1.Do you make a list when you shop?

　　在这里，我们要告诉考官自己列表的目的，不然考官可能会不断地灵魂发问：why？

　　--所以这么说：

　　Generally speaking, yes, I will make a shopping list and write out the items that need to be bought and even the brands of these items. You know, supermarkets or shopping malls are very large，so it is easy to deviate from the theme of this shopping-I easily stroll around in those places. In this case, I will waste much time without buying the things i really need.

　　一般来说，是的，我会列出购物清单，写出需要购买的商品，甚至这些商品的品牌。你知道，超级市场或大型购物中心非常大。一旦没有目标，就很容易偏离本次购物的主题-我经常就闲逛起来。这样的话，我会浪费大量时间并且买不到我真正需要的东西。

　　2. Do you make a list for your work? (Does it work?)

　　哦豁，你看，考官又给你绕到了工作上，而且还要问你有没有用。

　　--那如果我们是学生的话，可以这么说：

　　I am a student now, yes, I will make a list. I have a lot of homework, so if I don’t write it down, I may forget it; at the same time, making a list allows me to make some overall planning, such as which homework tasks to do first, and then do that, so that my time can become more compact.

　　我现在是个学生，对，我会列清单的。我的功课比较多，所以不写下来可能是会忘记的；同时，列清单可以让我做一些统筹的计划，比如哪些功课任务先做，哪个后做，这样我的时间可以变得更紧凑一些。

　　--那如果我们上班了的话，可以这么说：

　　I do make some checklists when I work, because the priorities of each character are different. At the same time, I will also update this information on my schedule list in real time, so that I can arrange my work in an orderly manner.

　　我工作的时候确实会做一些清单列表，因为每个人物的轻重缓急是不一样的。同时，我也会把这些信息实时更新在我的日程列表上，这样我可以把工作内容安排的井井有条了。

　　3. Why don't some people like making lists?

　　I guess they may not like to do things by the invisible remind, and may prefer to do things casually. To complete within the specified time is to complete, so they feel that the list has a sense of restraint, urging them to complete some things.

　　我猜，他们可能不喜欢被提醒着干事情，可能比较喜欢随性而为。在规定时间内完成都是完成，所以他们觉得列清单有一种束缚感，在催着他们完成一些事情一样。

　　4. Do you prefer to make a list on paper or your phone?

　　I prefer it on my mobile phone. Firstly, my phone is always by my side, so it’s actually more convenient to remind me. Secondly, some apps on the mobile phone are really useful, and besides the list, they can remind me to do it and the deadline. If note it on paper, I may have to carry pen and paper at any time, so it is more convenient to list on the phone instead of on the paper.

　　我更喜欢在手机上列清单。首先，我的手机一直在我身边，因此提醒我更方便。其次，手机上的某些应用程序确实非常有用，除了清单之外，它们还可以提醒我去做和什么时候戒指。如果在纸上写，我可能随时都需要携带笔和纸，因此用电话而不是纸来列清单更方便。
