题目1. Talk about an important
experience that you recently had.
Describe
what happened and explain why it was important to
you.
答案I recently attended a prayer meeting of
BAHAI. The host is
a couple. They hold the
meeting at their apartment every week.
We
prayed in the living room together and recited the
scripture.
Also, we all talked about our happy
events and unhappy events
happened recently
and exchanged our ideas about everyone’s events.
It was important to me because it’s the first
time I attended
a small prayer meeting like
that and we talked without concealment.
It’s
like a whole new experience to me. In addition, I
made some
friends there.
题目2. Some people
think that family members are the most
important influence on young adults. Others
believe that friends
are the most important
influence. Which do you agree with? Explain
why.
答案I believe friends are the most
important influence. We all
know that one
takes the behavior of one’s company. Friends are
always our companies. We play games together,
keep secrets and
talk anything we like. We
share interests and hobbies. For example,
many
of my friends like playing basketball because I
like playing
basketball very much. I learned a
lot from my friends, their way
of
talking and their behaviors. However, I rarely
spent time with
my cousins or with my parents.
They might have some influence on
me, but they
are definitely not the most important influence.
In
a word, because we are closest to our
friends, friends have the
most important
influence on us.
I believe family members are
the most important influence on young
adults.
Young adults need directions when they are growing
up.
Even though they spend most of the time
with friends, they get
instructions from
family members, especially parents. Take myself
as an example, when I was the college, my
father always told me
the importance of “How
to study by oneself.” He called me every
week
and gave me instructions. On the other hand, even
though I
spent much time with my friends
playing video games or basketball,
I didn't
feel that I was influenced by them. All they
talked about
was how to play and how to get
laid and I didn't like that.
题目3. The woman
expresses her opinion of the university's new
policy. State her opinion and explain the
reasons she gives for
holding that opinion.
答案The business apartment will now require all
students to have
one semester work experience
in a local company so that students
can
develop leadership and organizational skills and
may secure
permanent employment
after graduation. The woman in the
conversation doesn’t think the policy will
help students. Firstly,
the students don’t do
the work that can develop leadership and
organizational skills. Typically, students are
there to do basic
jobs such as typing and
filing. Secondly, there are many other
universities in this area that have the same
requirements so there
must be a lot of
students holding the same positions. So after
graduation, the competition for business jobs
will actually be
fierce.
题目4. Using the
professor's example, explain what an
establishing shot is and how it is used.
答案Establishing shot is an image shown briefly
at the beginning
of a scene in order to
communicate background information to
viewers
and establish mood or feeling of the scene. The
professor
uses a movie he recently watched as
an example. At
the beginning of the movie, You
can see an image of a city with
tall
buildings, skyscrapers. In the city the cars and
signs are
old-fashioned. It seems like the
city is in the 1940s. Also, before
the scene
started, the city seemed gloomy. It was mostly
darkness,
with little light from street lamps
and it was raining, kind of
foggy. These give
viewers a dark, gloomy mysterious feeling. So
when detectives are talking in an
office, the professor had
already known that
the scene is a located in tall building, big
city, sometime in the 1940s and the event is
dark, gloomy and
mysterious.
题目5. Briefly
summarize the problem the speakers are
discussing. Then state which solution you
would recommend.
Explain the reasons for your
recommendation.
答案The woman has to move out of
her apartment right away because
there is
something wrong with the water pipe and it’s going
to
take about two weeks to fix it. Also, the
mid-term exams are coming
up. The first
solution is to stay at some friends’ place. The
woman can sleep on the living room couch. But
their place has
already got four people, it’ll
be a little crowded. Plus, there
will be many
distractions. The second solution is live in a
hotel
near campus. She could get a room there.
But her budget is very
tight now, even if the
weekly rate is reasonable, it’ll still
end up
costing her some money. Considering the options
and
problems, I would recommend her to choose
the first solution.
Since her budget is tight,
living at the friends’ place can save
her
money. Concerning the problem of distractions, she
can just
study in classrooms and only sleep on
the couch at night.
题目6.
Using points from the lecture, explain how the
passion
plant and the potato plant defend
themselves from insects.
答案The professor talks
about two different ways plants
develop to
protect themselves from insects. The first way is
use physical features. For example, the
passion plant has leaves
with spiky hairs
sticking out. The hairs are so numerous and dense
that there is no room for insects to land.
Since insects can’
t land on the leaves, they
can’t eat the leaves. The second way
is to use
chemical defensives. For instance, potato plant
releases
a kind of chemical whenever insects
start eating its leaves. The
chemical it
releases can discourage the insects from wanting
to
eat more, so the chemical makes insects
feel full, and then insects
stop eating the
plant.
