1、近你感興趣的新聞或是故事
Describe a news or a story that you are interested in recently. And explain why you think it was interesting. Include reasons and details in your response.
I am interested in the new series movies recently. I am a big fan of novel series of and I never missed any of the series. But I never watched the movie before. I heard that those fantastic films are produced based on the story written in the novel . Therefore, I really want to watch the movie and find the differences between the films and the novels. Besides, I heard that some part of the story in the novel were cut in order to make the film, So I am interested in reading the book and figure out what they are.2、喜歡寫essay 還是用試卷。
2、課堂討論也計分還是只記 essay 的分吧
Some students prefer to take a essay question where they must write an essay to question. Other students prefer to take a test with objective questions. Which type of exam question do you prefer? Give reasons and examples in your explanation. Personally, I prefer writing an essay to a question. The reason is that I think students can learn more skills of the independent thinking skill from an essay. It means you have to collect the materials, organize it and then express it in your own words. The whole processes can enhance one’s learning skills. Take myself for example, I am majored in literature. So actually, there is no write answer about a specific question and it means nothing if you just memorize something. So I think if I write an essay, Icon learn more critical thinking from that and that is the essential skill I should have for my major.
3、學(xué)校要在宿舍開餐廳,有利于大家交流學(xué)習(xí)也給大家提供了另外一個吃飯的地方
4、說廣告的:speaker 說他本來不想買制冰激凌機,覺得那很麻煩。后來有一天看到廣告,廣告把每一步驟都說得很清楚,他覺得很容易,所以就買了一臺回家。問廣告molding 的作用。
In the lecture, the professor uses his own example to illustrates how the molding is used in advertising. In the example, the professor mentions the he didn’t want to buy ace-cream maker at first because he thinks that the process is so complicated. But one day when he came across an adverstiment of an ice cream maker which illustrated every process of the how to use it in a very detailed way, he just changed his mind. He thought the process was not as much complicated as before. So he just bought thrice-cream maker and made the ice cream by himself.
5、女生的照片要到今晚開始為期2 個月的藝術(shù)展上展出,但這女生把照片落在家里了?,F(xiàn)在去拿來得及展出,但會錯過下午的review。她媽媽說可以給她送過來,但得明天,因為今天要上班。教授說可以明天再展出。但該女生的朋友今晚來看展覽,沒看不到她的照片了。
In the dialogue, the woman has a problem that her pictures is supposed to be presentin the exhibition tonight but she left them at her home. There are three solutions forher.
First, she can go back home and take them immediately but she will miss the reviewin the afternoon.
Second, her mother can help her to bring the pictures tomorrow and she can presentthem then.
Personally, I prefer the second solution. First, I think the study should always comethe first for the students, so she cannot miss the review. It is important to her study.Second, I think her friends can still come to see her pictures tomorrow if she just tellsthem the truth. Her friends will understand that.
6、一些動物的媽媽會讓同種族的年輕一點的女性來照顧自己的小孩,這樣她就可以出去采食和活動,同時也訓(xùn)練了那些即將當(dāng)媽媽的mothering skill。Some animals let other younger female animals of the same kind to look after their babies. There are two advantages.
First, they can look for food and do other activities because other female animals look after their children.
Second, when other females look after other’s children, they can learn some
mothering skills which are helpful for them when they become mother someday in the future.

1、Which job do you think is the most important to your society: doctor,teacher or farmer? Give specific reasons to support your answer.
I think the teacher is the most important work to the society. As a student, I believe how important the education is, especially the primary education. Because there is the first step throughout the education process, the teacher is the key person who plays an
important role. I remember my primary teacher, Ms Wu, she gave me so many help on
my studying hobbies and studying interest. This is very helpful for my further study in the couple of years. In a word, education is important for an individual itself and the whole country and I believe the teacher is important for that.
2、Do you agree or disagree with the following statement? If a person want to be happy, he or she should like his or her job or work. Use specific reasons and examples to support your answer.
I agree with this statement. I think the work takes up much of people’s life when he or she graduates from school and starts the career life. So, if you do a job you don’t like, it would be really suffering. For example, as a student majored in education, I can expect the happiness while I teach the students knowledge in the future because I like sharing my knowledge and impart them to someone else. It makes my life meaningfully contrast, I cannot imagine I will work a sales person and deal with customers allay long, although it probably brings more money.
3、[閱讀] 有個學(xué)生寫信給大學(xué)校報說學(xué)校應(yīng)該provide money 為students 建立一個nature club。好處1、很多同學(xué)喜歡參加outdoor 活動,以親近大自然,但去那些地方太不方便。學(xué)??梢越M織學(xué)生并用bus 接送他們周末去野外玩兒、renew energy。好處2、這個trip has educational meaning。同學(xué)們也可以get a lot of firsthand experiences about environment and nature。
[聽力] 女生反對,認為學(xué)校這么做is unnecessary。原因1:學(xué)生不一定非要參加natural club 的trip 才能親近大自然。It is easy for students to take cars or buses to the
parks nearby take a break from study。原因2:Studying outdoors has no educational meaning。If students just wandering around the field ,they can't learn anything because there is no professor's guidance。
The woman disagrees with the reading passage which states that the university should provide money to build a nature club for the students. She holds two reasons. First, she thinks that the nature club is not the only way for the students to get close to the nature because it is easy for students to take cars or buses to the parks nearby takes break from study
Second, she states that studying outdoors has no educational meaning. If students just wander around the field, they cannot learn anything actually because there is no professor’s guidance。
4、心理學(xué)概念。confirmation bias(證實偏見):people only accept positive information which helps to confirm their points of view, and ignore negative information which does not confirm their points of view.
教授舉他的一個女性朋友的例子。她想買一種新型hybrid power car and it is environmental friendly。她in the road 看到real car 就會說這個car 很eye catching那么多人都買它。她只關(guān)注關(guān)于這種車的優(yōu)點的positive critics,而ignore 教授給他看magazine 上關(guān)于這種車的缺點(比如新型車性能unstable,容易壞,requires the frequent fix,repair 費用貴,spending would end up on repairing)negative 報道。
in the end,她并沒有改變她的看法,還真就bought that car,那車問題很多,總得修理,但她還是堅信這個車是很不錯的。讓你結(jié)合聽力的例子解釋這個心理學(xué)概念。
In the lecture, the professor uses a story of his friend to illustrate the concept of the confirmation bias. In the story, his friend wants to buy a hybrid power car which is very environmental friendly. She is so fascinated with that car that she can only focus on the positive critics. When the professor shows her about the negative critics about the car, such as, it is unstable, and it requires the frequent fix pair, the woman just ignored them. In the end, she didn’t accept the negative information of the car from the professor and just bought it. Although the car shows many problem just as the negative critics say, but the woman still believe her idea
5、男生tomorrow 要完成表theater acting class assignment,give a performance。但他的partner dropped the class,因為她is too busy。男生不知道該怎么演perform了。
男生自己給了自己建議 1、find a new scene that has only one single role, and prepare
a speech or monologue。女生說這樣得重新背lines。他先前的那個角色的lines 已經(jīng)準備很長時間了。And the man says that he is good at memorizing lines。女生給男生建議2、找這個女生來代演男生的partner's role,though she's a terrible actress,很可能mess up 他的演出。描述男生遇到的困難,女生給的兩個建議,你的建議,為什么。
The man has a problem that he cannot complete perform for the theater acting class because his partner dropped the class. There are two solutions for him.
First, he can find a new scene that has only one single role, and prepare a speech or monologue.
Second, he can find another student to play his partner’s role.
Personally, I prefer the first solution. First, I think it is hard to find another suitable student to replace his partner in such urgency. And it takes time for the new partner to memorizing the lines. Additionally, I think the man has already memorized the lines, so he will face no trouble if he does that in a single role.
6、selective breeding(選育):為了提高農(nóng)產(chǎn)品的產(chǎn)量quantity 和品質(zhì)quality,
古代farmers 在種crops 時會篩選具有some desirable characteristics 的植株的seeds一直to breed 下去。后來,品種就被改良了。教授舉了兩個例子:例子1:小麥wheat,剛開始wheat 成熟了以后谷物容易fall down on the ground。It is difficult together。Uncertain 的一部分stay stand。It is easy to gather。后來農(nóng)民選擇這些不落谷物的植株的seeds 進行反復(fù)培育to breed,year after year,all the wheat’s 就不落了。便于farmers 采集。后來,wheat 就變成主要作物,提供足夠food。例子2:原來,pea plant 果實都是small pieces,不夠吃。farmers 選擇有l(wèi)arge size 果實的植株的seeds 繼續(xù)to breed。Finally,they got more big size peas,能提供more food。In the lecture, the professor talks about the selective breeding. The main idea is that ancient farms select some seeds with desirable characteristics to breed them into crops in order to improve the quantity and quality. He cites two examples. The first examples the wheat. The wheat is easy to fall down on the ground and it makes it difficult forth famers to gather. So the farmers just pick up the crops which stay stand and breed them year after year. The result is that all the wheat don’t fall down on the ground and makes it easier for the farmers to gather. The second example is the pea plant. The pea plant just produces small pieces fruit so they cannot offer enough food. So the farmers just picked up the seeds of the pea plant which produces large sizes. And finally, they got more big size peas and offer enough food.

1、describe a special experience that has changed you in life. give reasons why it changed you with examples/details。
I once met a problem that I was not sure about which major I should took in college when I graduated from high school. My father introduced me one of this students majored in physics and we talked about for a while. He just cited his story when hews in high school with the same problem as I have. He told me that the interest is the most important factor when choosing a major. The major you will choose means theta few years, like 4 years, or even more will be spend on that. If you were not
interested in that, you would be suffering a lot. I thought about what said and found itis right. So finally, I just took his advice and choose Chinese literature, which I aminterested in as my major in college. I am still happy with that decision till today.
2、You prefer learn from people and events in the past or from currrent events.
3、老師發(fā)email 關(guān)于上課的新要求:要學(xué)生上課前提兩個問題發(fā)給她,以備課上討論。說這樣可以促使學(xué)生更好的完成reading assignment,并且針對學(xué)生感興趣的問題增加課堂討論。對話里男學(xué)生非常支持老師的意見。
The man agrees with the professor’ requirement about the discussion, that is, studentswrite about the report one day ahead. He states two reasons.
First, he thinks it is good fro the discussion part because it would save time. Last time,it took him a long time to finish discussion.
Second, it is useful for their finals. Because students have interesting ideas ready andthey are easy to write paper.
4、講evolution in action,說物種可以在相對短的時間內(nèi)很快適應(yīng)周邊環(huán)境的變化。lecture 里舉了一個植物的例子,說以前這種草長在房子周圍,相安無事。后來100年草機的引用使得這個草老被割短,后來這個草干脆就進化成往兩邊長,不往上長了。
In the lecture, the professor an example of the mint plants to illustrate how the plantsadapt to new changed environment. In the experiment, the mint are used to grow ingrassy field and woods and grew tall and faster. Later some houses ‘owners plant mintplants in the yard. They cut them into short, quickly, all mint plants become short andhardly being cut, instead, they grow side way become flat.
5、學(xué)生會要在期末考試的study break 辦個party 讓大家放松一下,結(jié)果請的樂隊主唱病了,不能來演出,option:要么放磁帶里的音樂,但是沒氣氛,要么往后推遲幾天,但有可能大家考完就走了。
The problem is that a student band’s performance in the students’ party has to becanceled because the leader of the band is sick. There are two possible solutions.First, CDs can be played in the party instead of the live performance by the band.Second, the party can be postponed before the final exam.
Personally, I prefer the first solution. I think the students would understand that theperformance is canceled because of the sick of the band leader but not other reasonsinstead. Moreover, if the party is reschedules before the final exam, the student willjust focus on the exams and they cannot make it then.
6、顧客買東西一般看產(chǎn)品的兩種cues,一種是內(nèi)在的,由產(chǎn)品自身的質(zhì)量決定,比如果汁好喝所以買,一種是外在的,由產(chǎn)品的外在包裝決定,比如果汁的瓶子漂亮,并且商標fancy,所以買。
In the lecture, the professor introduces two cues to judge the qualities of products byconsumers. The first clue is the intrinsic cue. The customers judge the productsqualities by their physical characteristics, such as color, texture, sizes. For example,
food, customers will think it has good qualities if it has good taste. The opposite cue isthe extrinsic cue; the customers don’t judge the product quality by physical
characteristics. For example, juice, if the bottle of juice is a good looking glass bottleand has good label, consumers think it has good quality. So products area evaluatedby external packs but not the taste of the juice itself.

1、日常生活depend on 比較多的tool, object...
I depend on the internet much for my daily life. First it is helpful for my study. For example, when I am studying in the university library, I use the internet to look up the useful reference book and then look for it in the library. Besides, there are many professional bbs of my major on the internet, I often discuss with the people there about my major. I also have to say that internet is also important to my social life. Ihave got used to send emails, chat on-line with my friends.
2、忘記了(比較簡單)
3、文章:學(xué)校要弄一個electrical board 把所有的information, coming up events 都放那,想說那樣學(xué)生就不用四周看海報而且學(xué)校也會更整潔 因為墻上沒海報了
聽力:女生反對,集中反而更不容易看到,覺得四處海報才好,舉了個她一在圖書館看到海報所以在沒錯過一個show 的例子,因為貼海報比較方便,沒有人會提交information 然后再等它post 出來
The woman disagrees with the reading passage which states that the university plansto build and electrical board to show information. She holds two reasons.
First, she thinks that the post should be post everywhere on campus but not just in aelectrical board. She said she didn’t miss the show just because she saw the post in thelibrary.
Second….
4、一個說學(xué)校要建個圖書館,但是會覆蓋了原有用來hang out 的地方。一個女生是一個組織的代表,想申請一個event 去表示他們組織的反對
*問到為什么Dean 要問她組織里有多少人:因為要確定他們是否有足夠影響力*問雜志上什么寫錯了: 其實這件事還沒定下來
*那個女的應(yīng)該做research 然后去參加會議直接跟領(lǐng)導(dǎo)人講
5、一個singing group 要舉辦了,男的原本要弄個announcement on newspaper 讓跟多人來,但是他忘記了錯過deadline 了,女的說那改期吧,男的說,那個musiccourt 很難book 改期可能就要另找location,女的說那貼海報宣傳吧男的說考慮一下
The man has a problem that he forgets to prepare the announcement on newspaper forthe upcoming singing group. There are two solutions for him.
First, he can reschedule the singing group.
Second, he can post some advertisement on campus instead of on newspaper.Personally, I prefer the second solution. First, I think he will meet some trouble forrescheduling it if he finds difficulties in find another location. It would be timeconsuming and may cost more. Moreover, I think posting advertisement on campus ispretty efficient can the students can see them soon.
6、講negative ideation,課堂例子,教授很喜歡chocolate bar 但吃太多不好,后來就把它想象成是泥做的,來reduce the temptation
The professor uses his own story to illustrate the concept of the negative ideation.He is obsessed to chocolate bar but he knows it is bad for his healthy. In order tosolve
the problem, he just came up an idea that he tried to think the chocolate bar is made ofmud. By doing so, he just reduces the temptation to the chocolate bar because eachtime he wanted to eat it; he just thinks it as mud.

1、describe one way of life in your country has been changed and why it is beneficialI think one the changes in China is the usage of the internet. I remember the figure ofthe internet user in China in 2000 was only 50 million. But, surprisingly, this figurehas soared to 500 million with only ten years. Actually, the internet brings manychanges in people’s life in every aspect. For example, almost each university libraryin China has equipped with the internet. It is helpful for students’ study. They can findmore information faster than ever. Another example is the usage of internet in sociallife. People now in China are using internet to send emails, chat on-line, and theyeven find a blind date on internet.
2、做事是喜歡剛開始就準備還是到了due day 才開始準備,原因
I prefer preparing in advance.
First, I am a well-organized person. So if I have a plan, it takes time for me to prepareeverything before it happens. I think this is helpful especially when I have many otherworks to do at the same time. If I prepare first, I would feel less stressful.
Second, if I prepare first, I can have time to cope with the emergency. For example, Ionce wrote an essay for my history class with my laptop, but my laptop just brokewhen I was about to finish that paper. So I had to rewrite that essay, and it wasfrustrating.
3、[閱讀]
關(guān)于學(xué)校要求新生參加學(xué)習(xí)小組的通知,學(xué)校認為這樣做有兩個好處:1)幫助學(xué)生掌握學(xué)習(xí)技巧
2)讓學(xué)生結(jié)交新的朋友
[聽力]
女生不同意,認為
1)很多學(xué)生已經(jīng)知道怎么樣學(xué)習(xí),這樣做會浪費時間
2)學(xué)生都是在一個教室上課,遲早會認識成為朋友的,不需要通過在圖書館加入學(xué)習(xí)小組認識新的朋友
In the dialogue, the woman disagrees with reading passage which states that theuniversity requires the new students to participate in the study discussion group. Shestates two reasons for her idea.
First, she thinks that many of the new students have already learned some learningskills, so it would be waste of time for them to take part in the discussion group.Second, she thinks that the students will become friends finally because they study inthe same class. So it is unnecessary for them to make friends with each other by thediscussion group.

The man has a problem that he wants to change another job because he hurt his backwhen working in the book store. There are two solutions for him.
First, he can still work in the shop but play as an receptionist there. Second, he canfind a job in a cafeteria and wash the dishes there.
Personally, I prefer the first one. I think he has already hurt his back, so it would get
worse if he washes dishes which is very exhausting. Besides, I think he can talk to theboss about his working schedule so that he can avoid the time conflict with his studymeeting.
6、社會的穩(wěn)定性有兩種形式形成,一是人們從事同一個種類的工作,這樣大家有共同的作息時間,共同的關(guān)注點等;另一個是從事不同種類的工作,做出不同的貢獻,人們相互依賴,從而形成穩(wěn)定性。
In the lecture, the professor talks about the two forms in which the society keepsstable.
The first form he introduces is that people in a society can do the same kind of job. Bydoing so, they can share the same working schedule and share the same interest at thesame time.
The second for he introduces is that people can do the different kinds of job. By doingso, people can rely on each other because they make different contributions to thesociety.

重點機經(jīng)(7套)——日期按照推薦閱讀的順序排列
2009年2月28日
1、講你國家的development
模板1
I think one of the greatest developments in China is the usage of the internet. I remember the figure of the internet user in China in 2000 was only 50 million. But,
surprisingly, this figure has soared to 500 million with only ten years. Actually, the internet brings many changes in people’s life in every aspect. For example, almost each university library in China has equipped with the internet. It is helpful for students’ study. They can find more information faster than ever. Another example is the usage of internet in social life. People now in China are using internet to send emails, chat on-line, and they even find a blind date on internet.
模板 2
Using computer is the first technology I wand learn. First, because I like to go to the net bars, where there are crowd of people, which doesn’t need me too much thinking, all I have to do is to click the mouse, and it is pretty much relaxing. Also, I like something related to music. Therefore, I can get whatever I want about music on the internet. Another reason is that I can obtain much information too. For example, I can get to know something about current events or the most fashionable movies. Finally, Aim crazy about online chatting. If I surf the internet, I have a chance to chat with anyone, no matter whether they’re in China, the US, or Japan.
2、是否同意父母是我們重要的老師
I agree that parents are the important teachers to us. First, I think because we spend most of the time with our parent before we become adults, so we actually learn many things from our parents besides our teachers in school. Take myself for example; my father is a professor of physics. He teaches me a lot on physics since I was a child and that actually cultivate my interests in physics since then. So I just chose physic as my major in college. More importantly, parents don’t only teach us knowledge, but they also teach us how to deal with people and how to perceive the world.
3、學(xué)校要為學(xué)生的藝術(shù)課找個director,女生反對,一是那個人沒時間管那么多學(xué)生,還有就是這個director 并不能增加學(xué)生上課的人數(shù),因為大家都不知道這個人是誰,男生說是呀,我也不知道這個director 是誰。
The woman disagrees with the statement in the reading passage which states that the university plans to employ a director as the teacher for the art class. She states two reasons.
First, the director is so busy that he cannot focus entirely on the class.
Second, some students don’t know about this director because he is not famous enough. So the students will probably not go to the class because of him. The class size cannot be expanded.
4、competence 的兩個階段 conscious 和unconscious
用了typing 來作為例子說明
在 conscious 階段比如剛開始學(xué)習(xí) typing paper 他必須全神貫注并且在和他談話
時他必須專門停下來因為不能夠同時作兩件事 所以導(dǎo)致的結(jié)果就是他打完一篇文章很慢但是那個時候的錯誤也比較少.
在unconscious stage 人們通常認為自己已經(jīng)完全學(xué)會了這項技能所以不再聚精會神,常常一心兩用所以他打字慢慢變快而且常常邊打字便和寢室同學(xué)對話 但是這樣做的結(jié)果就是他在打字的時候犯的錯誤也便多了
題目就是讓你 summarize 整個材料大意還有如何用例子來說明觀點的。In this set of materials, the reading passage describes the definition about competence and the listening passage is a lecture by a professor on the same topic.
According to the reading passage, it says that the competence has two
stages: conscious and unconscious.
In the listening passage the professor discusses the same things. The professor uses typing as an example. He says that when he just started to learn how to type, he usually focused on typing without anything else interrupted. In the same time, he made less mistakes. However, when he totally mastered typing, he moved to
unconscious stage. He can do several things in the same time, but, he made even more mistakes.
5、女生沒辦法帶孩子去博物館,因為沒有向?qū)АS? 個建議,建議一,自己去,沒有向?qū)В秋@然有向?qū)Ш?,因為女生懂的沒向?qū)Ф啵唤ㄗh二,重新schedule另外的時間
The woman meets with a problem that she is not able to take her children to the museum because there is no guide there available.
There are two solutions. First, she can play as the guide but she is not as
knowledgeable about the museum as the guide.
Second, she can re-schedule the museum visit
Personally, I prefer the first solution. I think the woman can try to find some
information about the museum and learn it by herself. She can also play as the guidefor her children. Additionally, I think her children would be more comfortable if theirmother is the guide but not a stranger instead.
6、講生物保護自己的2 個方法,一是變形、二是行為——舉例:某種動物會裝死。
In the lecture, the professor talks about the two methods that the animals use toprotect themselves.
The first is the transformation
The other is the behavior.

第一題 what big event happened in your country recently?
第二題 do you agree or disagree with the statement that friends influence people themost.
第三題 文章說學(xué)校要發(fā)daily email informing school activities,聽力中兩個學(xué)生討論,女生認為這個很好。因為學(xué)校以前是有個newspaper,一周一刊,她有時候周一讀完,周三周四就忘了這些活動。每天都有email,是很好的提醒。另外,有時候活動會被取消,每天通知就能使大家得到新消息,不至于白去。此外,學(xué)生們每天查郵件,使這個通知很方便。
第四題 文章說教育方面中,有時候老師提問沒聽講的同學(xué)一個問題,不等學(xué)生回答,教授繼續(xù)往下講,學(xué)生就能pay attention了。講座中,教授舉了自己教小孩的例子。他教育孩子們發(fā)言要舉手,這樣大家就公平,每人都有發(fā)言的機會。不過有個小姑娘叫Sarah,她從不舉手。教授有一天就說阿,Sarah你知不知道你這么做別人不公平說不上話啊。沒等Sarah回答,教授就繼續(xù)了。從此Sarah知道舉手了。

2、課堂討論也計分還是只記 essay 的分吧
Some students prefer to take a essay question where they must write an essay to question. Other students prefer to take a test with objective questions. Which type of exam question do you prefer? Give reasons and examples in your explanation. Personally, I prefer writing an essay to a question. The reason is that I think students can learn more skills of the independent thinking skill from an essay. It means you have to collect the materials, organize it and then express it in your own words. The whole processes can enhance one’s learning skills. Take myself for example, I am majored in literature. So actually, there is no write answer about a specific question and it means nothing if you just memorize something. So I think if I write an essay, Icon learn more critical thinking from that and that is the essential skill I should have for my major.

1、Which job do you think is the most important to your society: doctor,teacher or farmer? Give specific reasons to support your answer.
I think the teacher is the most important work to the society. As a student, I believe how important the education is, especially the primary education. Because there is the first step throughout the education process, the teacher is the key person who plays an
important role. I remember my primary teacher, Ms Wu, she gave me so many help on
my studying hobbies and studying interest. This is very helpful for my further study in the couple of years. In a word, education is important for an individual itself and the whole country and I believe the teacher is important for that.
2、Do you agree or disagree with the following statement? If a person want to be happy, he or she should like his or her job or work. Use specific reasons and examples to support your answer.
I agree with this statement. I think the work takes up much of people’s life when he or she graduates from school and starts the career life. So, if you do a job you don’t like, it would be really suffering. For example, as a student majored in education, I can expect the happiness while I teach the students knowledge in the future because I like sharing my knowledge and impart them to someone else. It makes my life meaningfully contrast, I cannot imagine I will work a sales person and deal with customers allay long, although it probably brings more money.
3、[閱讀] 有個學(xué)生寫信給大學(xué)校報說學(xué)校應(yīng)該provide money 為students 建立一個nature club。好處1、很多同學(xué)喜歡參加outdoor 活動,以親近大自然,但去那些地方太不方便。學(xué)??梢越M織學(xué)生并用bus 接送他們周末去野外玩兒、renew energy。好處2、這個trip has educational meaning。同學(xué)們也可以get a lot of firsthand experiences about environment and nature。
[聽力] 女生反對,認為學(xué)校這么做is unnecessary。原因1:學(xué)生不一定非要參加natural club 的trip 才能親近大自然。It is easy for students to take cars or buses to the
parks nearby take a break from study。原因2:Studying outdoors has no educational meaning。If students just wandering around the field ,they can't learn anything because there is no professor's guidance。
The woman disagrees with the reading passage which states that the university should provide money to build a nature club for the students. She holds two reasons. First, she thinks that the nature club is not the only way for the students to get close to the nature because it is easy for students to take cars or buses to the parks nearby takes break from study
Second, she states that studying outdoors has no educational meaning. If students just wander around the field, they cannot learn anything actually because there is no professor’s guidance。
4、心理學(xué)概念。confirmation bias(證實偏見):people only accept positive information which helps to confirm their points of view, and ignore negative information which does not confirm their points of view.
教授舉他的一個女性朋友的例子。她想買一種新型hybrid power car and it is environmental friendly。她in the road 看到real car 就會說這個car 很eye catching那么多人都買它。她只關(guān)注關(guān)于這種車的優(yōu)點的positive critics,而ignore 教授給他看magazine 上關(guān)于這種車的缺點(比如新型車性能unstable,容易壞,requires the frequent fix,repair 費用貴,spending would end up on repairing)negative 報道。
in the end,她并沒有改變她的看法,還真就bought that car,那車問題很多,總得修理,但她還是堅信這個車是很不錯的。讓你結(jié)合聽力的例子解釋這個心理學(xué)概念。
In the lecture, the professor uses a story of his friend to illustrate the concept of the confirmation bias. In the story, his friend wants to buy a hybrid power car which is very environmental friendly. She is so fascinated with that car that she can only focus on the positive critics. When the professor shows her about the negative critics about the car, such as, it is unstable, and it requires the frequent fix pair, the woman just ignored them. In the end, she didn’t accept the negative information of the car from the professor and just bought it. Although the car shows many problem just as the negative critics say, but the woman still believe her idea
5、男生tomorrow 要完成表theater acting class assignment,give a performance。但他的partner dropped the class,因為她is too busy。男生不知道該怎么演perform了。
男生自己給了自己建議 1、find a new scene that has only one single role, and prepare
a speech or monologue。女生說這樣得重新背lines。他先前的那個角色的lines 已經(jīng)準備很長時間了。And the man says that he is good at memorizing lines。女生給男生建議2、找這個女生來代演男生的partner's role,though she's a terrible actress,很可能mess up 他的演出。描述男生遇到的困難,女生給的兩個建議,你的建議,為什么。
The man has a problem that he cannot complete perform for the theater acting class because his partner dropped the class. There are two solutions for him.
First, he can find a new scene that has only one single role, and prepare a speech or monologue.
Second, he can find another student to play his partner’s role.
Personally, I prefer the first solution. First, I think it is hard to find another suitable student to replace his partner in such urgency. And it takes time for the new partner to memorizing the lines. Additionally, I think the man has already memorized the lines, so he will face no trouble if he does that in a single role.
6、selective breeding(選育):為了提高農(nóng)產(chǎn)品的產(chǎn)量quantity 和品質(zhì)quality,
古代farmers 在種crops 時會篩選具有some desirable characteristics 的植株的seeds一直to breed 下去。后來,品種就被改良了。教授舉了兩個例子:例子1:小麥wheat,剛開始wheat 成熟了以后谷物容易fall down on the ground。It is difficult together。Uncertain 的一部分stay stand。It is easy to gather。后來農(nóng)民選擇這些不落谷物的植株的seeds 進行反復(fù)培育to breed,year after year,all the wheat’s 就不落了。便于farmers 采集。后來,wheat 就變成主要作物,提供足夠food。例子2:原來,pea plant 果實都是small pieces,不夠吃。farmers 選擇有l(wèi)arge size 果實的植株的seeds 繼續(xù)to breed。Finally,they got more big size peas,能提供more food。In the lecture, the professor talks about the selective breeding. The main idea is that ancient farms select some seeds with desirable characteristics to breed them into crops in order to improve the quantity and quality. He cites two examples. The first examples the wheat. The wheat is easy to fall down on the ground and it makes it difficult forth famers to gather. So the farmers just pick up the crops which stay stand and breed them year after year. The result is that all the wheat don’t fall down on the ground and makes it easier for the farmers to gather. The second example is the pea plant. The pea plant just produces small pieces fruit so they cannot offer enough food. So the farmers just picked up the seeds of the pea plant which produces large sizes. And finally, they got more big size peas and offer enough food.

1、describe a special experience that has changed you in life. give reasons why it changed you with examples/details。
I once met a problem that I was not sure about which major I should took in college when I graduated from high school. My father introduced me one of this students majored in physics and we talked about for a while. He just cited his story when hews in high school with the same problem as I have. He told me that the interest is the most important factor when choosing a major. The major you will choose means theta few years, like 4 years, or even more will be spend on that. If you were not
interested in that, you would be suffering a lot. I thought about what said and found itis right. So finally, I just took his advice and choose Chinese literature, which I aminterested in as my major in college. I am still happy with that decision till today.
2、You prefer learn from people and events in the past or from currrent events.
3、老師發(fā)email 關(guān)于上課的新要求:要學(xué)生上課前提兩個問題發(fā)給她,以備課上討論。說這樣可以促使學(xué)生更好的完成reading assignment,并且針對學(xué)生感興趣的問題增加課堂討論。對話里男學(xué)生非常支持老師的意見。
The man agrees with the professor’ requirement about the discussion, that is, studentswrite about the report one day ahead. He states two reasons.
First, he thinks it is good fro the discussion part because it would save time. Last time,it took him a long time to finish discussion.
Second, it is useful for their finals. Because students have interesting ideas ready andthey are easy to write paper.
4、講evolution in action,說物種可以在相對短的時間內(nèi)很快適應(yīng)周邊環(huán)境的變化。lecture 里舉了一個植物的例子,說以前這種草長在房子周圍,相安無事。后來100年草機的引用使得這個草老被割短,后來這個草干脆就進化成往兩邊長,不往上長了。
In the lecture, the professor an example of the mint plants to illustrate how the plantsadapt to new changed environment. In the experiment, the mint are used to grow ingrassy field and woods and grew tall and faster. Later some houses ‘owners plant mintplants in the yard. They cut them into short, quickly, all mint plants become short andhardly being cut, instead, they grow side way become flat.
5、學(xué)生會要在期末考試的study break 辦個party 讓大家放松一下,結(jié)果請的樂隊主唱病了,不能來演出,option:要么放磁帶里的音樂,但是沒氣氛,要么往后推遲幾天,但有可能大家考完就走了。
The problem is that a student band’s performance in the students’ party has to becanceled because the leader of the band is sick. There are two possible solutions.First, CDs can be played in the party instead of the live performance by the band.Second, the party can be postponed before the final exam.
Personally, I prefer the first solution. I think the students would understand that theperformance is canceled because of the sick of the band leader but not other reasonsinstead. Moreover, if the party is reschedules before the final exam, the student willjust focus on the exams and they cannot make it then.
6、顧客買東西一般看產(chǎn)品的兩種cues,一種是內(nèi)在的,由產(chǎn)品自身的質(zhì)量決定,比如果汁好喝所以買,一種是外在的,由產(chǎn)品的外在包裝決定,比如果汁的瓶子漂亮,并且商標fancy,所以買。
In the lecture, the professor introduces two cues to judge the qualities of products byconsumers. The first clue is the intrinsic cue. The customers judge the productsqualities by their physical characteristics, such as color, texture, sizes. For example,
food, customers will think it has good qualities if it has good taste. The opposite cue isthe extrinsic cue; the customers don’t judge the product quality by physical
characteristics. For example, juice, if the bottle of juice is a good looking glass bottleand has good label, consumers think it has good quality. So products area evaluatedby external packs but not the taste of the juice itself.

1、日常生活depend on 比較多的tool, object...
I depend on the internet much for my daily life. First it is helpful for my study. For example, when I am studying in the university library, I use the internet to look up the useful reference book and then look for it in the library. Besides, there are many professional bbs of my major on the internet, I often discuss with the people there about my major. I also have to say that internet is also important to my social life. Ihave got used to send emails, chat on-line with my friends.
2、忘記了(比較簡單)
3、文章:學(xué)校要弄一個electrical board 把所有的information, coming up events 都放那,想說那樣學(xué)生就不用四周看海報而且學(xué)校也會更整潔 因為墻上沒海報了
聽力:女生反對,集中反而更不容易看到,覺得四處海報才好,舉了個她一在圖書館看到海報所以在沒錯過一個show 的例子,因為貼海報比較方便,沒有人會提交information 然后再等它post 出來
The woman disagrees with the reading passage which states that the university plansto build and electrical board to show information. She holds two reasons.
First, she thinks that the post should be post everywhere on campus but not just in aelectrical board. She said she didn’t miss the show just because she saw the post in thelibrary.
Second….
4、一個說學(xué)校要建個圖書館,但是會覆蓋了原有用來hang out 的地方。一個女生是一個組織的代表,想申請一個event 去表示他們組織的反對
*問到為什么Dean 要問她組織里有多少人:因為要確定他們是否有足夠影響力*問雜志上什么寫錯了: 其實這件事還沒定下來
*那個女的應(yīng)該做research 然后去參加會議直接跟領(lǐng)導(dǎo)人講
5、一個singing group 要舉辦了,男的原本要弄個announcement on newspaper 讓跟多人來,但是他忘記了錯過deadline 了,女的說那改期吧,男的說,那個musiccourt 很難book 改期可能就要另找location,女的說那貼海報宣傳吧男的說考慮一下
The man has a problem that he forgets to prepare the announcement on newspaper forthe upcoming singing group. There are two solutions for him.
First, he can reschedule the singing group.
Second, he can post some advertisement on campus instead of on newspaper.Personally, I prefer the second solution. First, I think he will meet some trouble forrescheduling it if he finds difficulties in find another location. It would be timeconsuming and may cost more. Moreover, I think posting advertisement on campus ispretty efficient can the students can see them soon.
6、講negative ideation,課堂例子,教授很喜歡chocolate bar 但吃太多不好,后來就把它想象成是泥做的,來reduce the temptation
The professor uses his own story to illustrate the concept of the negative ideation.He is obsessed to chocolate bar but he knows it is bad for his healthy. In order tosolve
the problem, he just came up an idea that he tried to think the chocolate bar is made ofmud. By doing so, he just reduces the temptation to the chocolate bar because eachtime he wanted to eat it; he just thinks it as mud.

1、describe one way of life in your country has been changed and why it is beneficialI think one the changes in China is the usage of the internet. I remember the figure ofthe internet user in China in 2000 was only 50 million. But, surprisingly, this figurehas soared to 500 million with only ten years. Actually, the internet brings manychanges in people’s life in every aspect. For example, almost each university libraryin China has equipped with the internet. It is helpful for students’ study. They can findmore information faster than ever. Another example is the usage of internet in sociallife. People now in China are using internet to send emails, chat on-line, and theyeven find a blind date on internet.
2、做事是喜歡剛開始就準備還是到了due day 才開始準備,原因
I prefer preparing in advance.
First, I am a well-organized person. So if I have a plan, it takes time for me to prepareeverything before it happens. I think this is helpful especially when I have many otherworks to do at the same time. If I prepare first, I would feel less stressful.
Second, if I prepare first, I can have time to cope with the emergency. For example, Ionce wrote an essay for my history class with my laptop, but my laptop just brokewhen I was about to finish that paper. So I had to rewrite that essay, and it wasfrustrating.
3、[閱讀]
關(guān)于學(xué)校要求新生參加學(xué)習(xí)小組的通知,學(xué)校認為這樣做有兩個好處:1)幫助學(xué)生掌握學(xué)習(xí)技巧
2)讓學(xué)生結(jié)交新的朋友
[聽力]
女生不同意,認為
1)很多學(xué)生已經(jīng)知道怎么樣學(xué)習(xí),這樣做會浪費時間
2)學(xué)生都是在一個教室上課,遲早會認識成為朋友的,不需要通過在圖書館加入學(xué)習(xí)小組認識新的朋友
In the dialogue, the woman disagrees with reading passage which states that theuniversity requires the new students to participate in the study discussion group. Shestates two reasons for her idea.
First, she thinks that many of the new students have already learned some learningskills, so it would be waste of time for them to take part in the discussion group.Second, she thinks that the students will become friends finally because they study inthe same class. So it is unnecessary for them to make friends with each other by thediscussion group.

The man has a problem that he wants to change another job because he hurt his backwhen working in the book store. There are two solutions for him.
First, he can still work in the shop but play as an receptionist there. Second, he canfind a job in a cafeteria and wash the dishes there.
Personally, I prefer the first one. I think he has already hurt his back, so it would get
worse if he washes dishes which is very exhausting. Besides, I think he can talk to theboss about his working schedule so that he can avoid the time conflict with his studymeeting.
6、社會的穩(wěn)定性有兩種形式形成,一是人們從事同一個種類的工作,這樣大家有共同的作息時間,共同的關(guān)注點等;另一個是從事不同種類的工作,做出不同的貢獻,人們相互依賴,從而形成穩(wěn)定性。
In the lecture, the professor talks about the two forms in which the society keepsstable.
The first form he introduces is that people in a society can do the same kind of job. Bydoing so, they can share the same working schedule and share the same interest at thesame time.
The second for he introduces is that people can do the different kinds of job. By doingso, people can rely on each other because they make different contributions to thesociety.

重點機經(jīng)(7套)——日期按照推薦閱讀的順序排列
2009年2月28日
1、講你國家的development
模板1
I think one of the greatest developments in China is the usage of the internet. I remember the figure of the internet user in China in 2000 was only 50 million. But,
surprisingly, this figure has soared to 500 million with only ten years. Actually, the internet brings many changes in people’s life in every aspect. For example, almost each university library in China has equipped with the internet. It is helpful for students’ study. They can find more information faster than ever. Another example is the usage of internet in social life. People now in China are using internet to send emails, chat on-line, and they even find a blind date on internet.
模板 2
Using computer is the first technology I wand learn. First, because I like to go to the net bars, where there are crowd of people, which doesn’t need me too much thinking, all I have to do is to click the mouse, and it is pretty much relaxing. Also, I like something related to music. Therefore, I can get whatever I want about music on the internet. Another reason is that I can obtain much information too. For example, I can get to know something about current events or the most fashionable movies. Finally, Aim crazy about online chatting. If I surf the internet, I have a chance to chat with anyone, no matter whether they’re in China, the US, or Japan.
2、是否同意父母是我們重要的老師
I agree that parents are the important teachers to us. First, I think because we spend most of the time with our parent before we become adults, so we actually learn many things from our parents besides our teachers in school. Take myself for example; my father is a professor of physics. He teaches me a lot on physics since I was a child and that actually cultivate my interests in physics since then. So I just chose physic as my major in college. More importantly, parents don’t only teach us knowledge, but they also teach us how to deal with people and how to perceive the world.
3、學(xué)校要為學(xué)生的藝術(shù)課找個director,女生反對,一是那個人沒時間管那么多學(xué)生,還有就是這個director 并不能增加學(xué)生上課的人數(shù),因為大家都不知道這個人是誰,男生說是呀,我也不知道這個director 是誰。
The woman disagrees with the statement in the reading passage which states that the university plans to employ a director as the teacher for the art class. She states two reasons.
First, the director is so busy that he cannot focus entirely on the class.
Second, some students don’t know about this director because he is not famous enough. So the students will probably not go to the class because of him. The class size cannot be expanded.
4、competence 的兩個階段 conscious 和unconscious
用了typing 來作為例子說明
在 conscious 階段比如剛開始學(xué)習(xí) typing paper 他必須全神貫注并且在和他談話
時他必須專門停下來因為不能夠同時作兩件事 所以導(dǎo)致的結(jié)果就是他打完一篇文章很慢但是那個時候的錯誤也比較少.
在unconscious stage 人們通常認為自己已經(jīng)完全學(xué)會了這項技能所以不再聚精會神,常常一心兩用所以他打字慢慢變快而且常常邊打字便和寢室同學(xué)對話 但是這樣做的結(jié)果就是他在打字的時候犯的錯誤也便多了
題目就是讓你 summarize 整個材料大意還有如何用例子來說明觀點的。In this set of materials, the reading passage describes the definition about competence and the listening passage is a lecture by a professor on the same topic.
According to the reading passage, it says that the competence has two
stages: conscious and unconscious.
In the listening passage the professor discusses the same things. The professor uses typing as an example. He says that when he just started to learn how to type, he usually focused on typing without anything else interrupted. In the same time, he made less mistakes. However, when he totally mastered typing, he moved to
unconscious stage. He can do several things in the same time, but, he made even more mistakes.
5、女生沒辦法帶孩子去博物館,因為沒有向?qū)АS? 個建議,建議一,自己去,沒有向?qū)В秋@然有向?qū)Ш?,因為女生懂的沒向?qū)Ф啵唤ㄗh二,重新schedule另外的時間
The woman meets with a problem that she is not able to take her children to the museum because there is no guide there available.
There are two solutions. First, she can play as the guide but she is not as
knowledgeable about the museum as the guide.
Second, she can re-schedule the museum visit
Personally, I prefer the first solution. I think the woman can try to find some
information about the museum and learn it by herself. She can also play as the guidefor her children. Additionally, I think her children would be more comfortable if theirmother is the guide but not a stranger instead.
6、講生物保護自己的2 個方法,一是變形、二是行為——舉例:某種動物會裝死。
In the lecture, the professor talks about the two methods that the animals use toprotect themselves.
The first is the transformation
The other is the behavior.

第三題 文章說學(xué)校要發(fā)daily email informing school activities,聽力中兩個學(xué)生討論,女生認為這個很好。因為學(xué)校以前是有個newspaper,一周一刊,她有時候周一讀完,周三周四就忘了這些活動。每天都有email,是很好的提醒。另外,有時候活動會被取消,每天通知就能使大家得到新消息,不至于白去。此外,學(xué)生們每天查郵件,使這個通知很方便。
第四題 文章說教育方面中,有時候老師提問沒聽講的同學(xué)一個問題,不等學(xué)生回答,教授繼續(xù)往下講,學(xué)生就能pay attention了。講座中,教授舉了自己教小孩的例子。他教育孩子們發(fā)言要舉手,這樣大家就公平,每人都有發(fā)言的機會。不過有個小姑娘叫Sarah,她從不舉手。教授有一天就說阿,Sarah你知不知道你這么做別人不公平說不上話啊。沒等Sarah回答,教授就繼續(xù)了。從此Sarah知道舉手了。

至丟書。女生反對,說她寫research paper, 就需要20 本, 另外,圖書館這樣做明顯是不信任學(xué)生,她從不會不按時還,不會把書弄丟
口語6 古人類取火有賴于。1)技術(shù),懂了加木頭能維持火。2)社交功能,大家輪著加,發(fā)展了社交功能

口語(前兩題竊聽了別人講的。。)
1 your way to make friends
2 do you agree? it is important to remember and learn from past experience
3 閱讀:學(xué)校有個running trailer,很dirty很不smooth,建議水泥pave一下,平整,這樣運動更爽更安全,而且看上去更美觀,吸引更多人跑步
對話:男的不同意。說1 根本不安全,水泥地硬,容易傷到肌肉關(guān)節(jié),原來的soft trailer更安全 2根本不美,鋪了水泥和大街有什么區(qū)別?原來的樣子更接近自然,讓人更relax.
4 閱讀:心理學(xué)的experiment effect. it occurs when researchers' expectationaffect the results of the research.
教授: 舉了monkey training experiment的例子。兩組monkeys,說要訓(xùn)練它們pick up balls and put them into boxes.第一組跟訓(xùn)練者說,這組猴子精,第二組跟訓(xùn)練的說,這組猴子傻,其實兩組一樣。然后發(fā)現(xiàn)第一組猴子真比第二組學(xué)的好。原因是第一組訓(xùn)練者更用心更耐心,smile to the monkeys。
5 女的晚上要去concert sing了。統(tǒng)一要穿white shirts and black pants。她的一件white shirt吃面弄臟了,現(xiàn)在去買新的來不及了。還有一件不是純白的,不想穿,和別人有色差。男的說去借別人的唄,女的說想借室友的,但是室友聯(lián)系不上,不想不驚人家同意就拿人家的衣服。
6 動物position of eyes影響survival。一種眼都長前面,比如hawk捉mice??礀|西很細,能看很小的,因為用倆眼。一種眼長兩邊,看predator。duck,吃草還能發(fā)現(xiàn)fox,因為兩邊眼睛可以看到in all directions。

兩個策略 第一是提出商品的特殊優(yōu)勢 weigh 掉顧慮

這樣way-out consumers' concern
第二是當(dāng)場演示

北美托口語機經(jīng)
1.如果別人去你國家,你推薦什么食物給他?and why?
2.老師是不是應(yīng)該要求學(xué)生參加regular discuss?
3.學(xué)校出了個通知說不讓宿舍晚上吵鬧了。女生同意:(1)她一般在圖書館看書,dorm經(jīng)常有**。這樣就也可以再dorm 看了。(2)第二天有早課的同學(xué)需要早睡,太吵了就沒辦法早睡,這樣就好很多。(3)改善同學(xué)關(guān)系。之前她又一同學(xué)老跟室友吵架就是因為晚上吵。
這下不會了。而且學(xué)校告訴學(xué)生比學(xué)生自己跟一個同學(xué)說好很多。
4.教育學(xué):文章,logical consequence 與inappropriate behavior 之間的關(guān)系。
就是說懲罰孩子要和為什么聯(lián)系到一起,他才不會再犯。教授舉了個例子是教授原來在大學(xué)教小孩畫畫。有一個叫Mary 的小孩,讓她畫畫她畫到了桌子上,教授就罰她不許出去玩。
結(jié)果之后那孩子還是畫;后來他就叫他畫桌子之后不不許用pen 畫畫了。孩子明白了,以后就不犯了。
5.女生買了演唱會的票和同學(xué)約好去看concert,但是她sister 要來看她。有沖突。
她自己提出了2 個解決方案:1)是把票給室友,叫同學(xué)再找別人去。自己去跟sister 好好聊天2)多買張ticket 帶sister 去,但是就沒空好好聊天了,而且票更貴,現(xiàn)在聯(lián)系不上姐姐。
6. Immune system:身體免疫的2 個保護stages,一個是Antibiotic stage (第一個詞不確定,類似的音): 是防御的第一線,防止外物進入。例子是skin,可以prevent germs get into body。比如被蚊子咬了之類的。一個是Mechanical removal:異物的排出,防止在體內(nèi)生長,把帶有disease 的germs get out of body,例子是sneeze。
