art class of sculpture , the school is planning to downsize the class size from 30 to 15, due to two reasons, the first one is that too many students may not get the attention from teacher as when it was of a smaller size, and 交流 is crutial to art class. the second reason is that it is too expensive to buy the materials(不記得啥了) for so many studerts.
女生觀點：完全不同意，sculpture is so important for students of arts that they would like to choose the class even if not paid so much attention from the teacher, the new regulation will 剝奪很多art student’s previlige to choose the class they want. Secondly, the art students would pay for the materials themself, just to get the chance to attend the class.
學(xué)校要減少一個art 什么的課的人數(shù)，理由是 人太多造成教授的attentive受到影響，另一個就是費用比較高。一男一女兩個同學(xué)討論，男問女的看法，女同學(xué)說很不開心，這個課很重要，less attentive is better than do not have any class at all，對于花費高她說這個也不是個好理由，這課真的很重要，所以即使要掏錢學(xué)，很多人會pay for it. 復(fù)述女孩的態(tài)度
task 4
【passage】：Progress explanation means somebody tells sb else how to do some work. Progress explanation有兩類：1、directive explanation。teach people how to carry out a project step by step. with instruction 2、informational explanation。just tell people a general idea about it ,without instruction, people are not told how to finish the task themselves.
【lecture】：the professor use two examples to illustrate two types: 1、he bought a cell phone recently，但不會put the telephone number into cell phone. His friend taught him how to enter the name and phone number step by step,for example, first input a number then a name . but one night the prof saw on Tv a program , says how signal is transmitted from one cellphone to another when dialed, by atenas and satellites, but it didn’t tell how to use the phone, so the prof didn’t know how to use the phone even after watching the program
question: how does the prof illustrate the definition of progress explanation using examples?
兩種process，一種directive,還有一個informational，文章解釋了這兩個概念。教授說自己昨天買了個新手機，不知道怎么輸號碼，然后一個朋友走進來教他使用，然后他就能自己用了。然后說那天在電視上看到report，講手機的原理，什么什么的，但是知道了這些原理也不知道怎么用手機。問題：用教授的例子解釋這兩個概念。

男生建議 why don’t you go less often ,like twice a month or so, or probably ask your roomate to do the tutoring for you
女生： 針對twice a month的回應(yīng)我不記得鳥：( 用roommate代替的話她提出high school girl is too shy. question: describe the problem the girl encountered and the two solutions , which one do you approve?
女孩說自己在給一個女孩做tutoring,但是她最近有mid-term還有很多paper，家教一周兩次，所以忙不過來。她不能推辭，因為這個女孩成績已經(jīng)有進步了，而且depending on her.男生提議說要不less often吧，女生說想過一個月兩次，但是這對女孩來說不夠。男孩又說要不找個人代替，女孩說她室友在做tutoring，但是那個女孩很shy，不太容易接受someone new. 復(fù)述問題和解決方法，你贊同哪種
Task 6
paitings were not perspective which means flat lacking dimensions before the renaissance,
but after the renaissance, several methods were used that helped the paintings look more perspective and realistic, 但是只是作者推測
1.artists began using optical devices such as camera or mirrors, for example, to draw a bow of fruit, they can use mirror to reflect the image on canvas, then trace the lines,最后一句不記得了
2.artists began using special paint oils, which takes more time to dry, the artist could pay more attention to details, which also makes the painting more perspective
question: 文藝復(fù)興后畫家們用了哪些辦法讓油畫更立體?
一個藝術(shù)史的講座，基本沒聽懂，看到題才知道是講的從文藝復(fù)興到現(xiàn)實主義過渡中的兩個理論，一個是用反射什么的，camera什么的，說了一堆我沒聽懂。還有一個是油畫oil painting。畫的可以很慢，所以可以有時間描繪細(xì)節(jié)，什么時候覺得畫好了什么時候停。
