NO.3
閱讀:停止爵士合唱團(tuán),因?yàn)楦信d趣的人少,沒(méi)有必要繼續(xù)了
聽(tīng)力:女人覺(jué)得真不好。
理由一:主要是因?yàn)槠綍r(shí)訓(xùn)得太勤了,導(dǎo)致很多學(xué)生不來(lái)了
理由二:沒(méi)有其他選擇了,很多是經(jīng)典,但不是爵士,女人不喜歡,其他學(xué)生也不喜歡。
NO.4
學(xué)校報(bào)社計(jì)劃推出一個(gè)pro-peering?project,即,在學(xué)生提交Paper前,報(bào)社人員幫助同學(xué)修改,有利于balabala
女生覺(jué)得 不好,
1)報(bào)社人員也是學(xué)生,不一定給出什么好建議。
2)即使好建議, 也不利于學(xué)生的長(zhǎng)遠(yuǎn)發(fā)展, 還是培養(yǎng)獨(dú)立意識(shí)比較好。
NO.5
閱讀:【公開(kāi)信】:小報(bào)上刊登了來(lái)自一個(gè)學(xué)生的公開(kāi)信. 倡議大學(xué)應(yīng)該to build an electronic board (電子告示板)at student center.
好處: 1. make student get information about coming up events easily rather than acquiring news at different places on campus by posters.
(之前使用貼在校園各處的海報(bào)不一定能讓所有人看見(jiàn),而這個(gè)電子告示板在固定的位置,學(xué)校的人來(lái)來(lái)往往能看見(jiàn),信息覆蓋面很大)
2. 學(xué)校也會(huì)更整潔,因?yàn)閴ι蠜](méi)海報(bào)了
聽(tīng)力:【學(xué)生議論】:男學(xué)生覺(jué)得這主意interesting, 女生反對(duì)這個(gè)計(jì)劃.
理由:
It is better to get news from different locations on campus because
1. they are everywhere (more than one place). If they do not go to student center, they will miss the notice. 舉了她在圖書(shū)館看到海報(bào),所以didn't miss a show / concert的例子.
電子告示板不一定能夠像預(yù)想的那樣,讓那么多人獲取信息,因?yàn)楹芏嗳瞬辉敢饣〞r(shí)間特意經(jīng)過(guò)電子告示板來(lái)看有什么新的消息。舉例:她自己上周五去了圖書(shū)館看到海報(bào),所以didn‘t miss a show / concert,如果沒(méi)有去過(guò)就看不到了,所以一個(gè)信息不能只在一個(gè)地方發(fā)布。
2. Even though the new bulletin board was estabilished, students will still do posters because of it is convenient (沒(méi)有人會(huì)提交information, 然后再等它post出來(lái))
question:explain the woman’s opinion towards the suggestion and why she holds that opinion.
NO.6
閱讀:是說(shuō)學(xué)校決定把每個(gè)班級(jí)的人數(shù)從8人增加到15人。原因是有更多的學(xué)生apply這些課程,但是學(xué)校的faculty有限。
聽(tīng)力;男同學(xué)的意見(jiàn):1、增加人數(shù)減少了communication with faculty,降低了小課堂的參與程度
2、既然有更多的學(xué)生,就可以獲得更多的錢(qián),就可以請(qǐng)更多的faculty解決了人力不足的問(wèn)題。簡(jiǎn)言之就是 more students, more money, more faculty
問(wèn)題是:學(xué)校作出了怎樣的決定,男同學(xué)的意見(jiàn)是什么?
NO.7
大學(xué)要建藝術(shù)教學(xué)樓,女生同意,因?yàn)樾聵菍挸髁,有助于?chuàng)作;對(duì)教授的聲譽(yù)又有好處,因?yàn)樾M庖粯堑男藿,?dǎo)致人們紛紛去那個(gè)樓去學(xué)藝術(shù)。
NO.8
Reading: Only qualified students have the right to work at the computer center. There are 3 reasons for this, but they are irrelevant to the speaking part.
Listening:
Man: I don't think it works.
Reason:
1)There should be a minimum grade requirement. How do you decide if a student is qualified enough? The university should offer a computer repair course. (這個(gè)地方我不是很確定)
2)Even when prospective students' pass the minimum grade requirement, they should only be allowed to handle situations that aren't overly complicated.
NO.9
Reading Part:
Nowadays, college newspaper hires students from different majors to write for them articles. In the future, they should only hire journalism students to write. This way they can deal with students who are actually interested in news and have more articles completed.
Listening part: Disagree
1) Students in other majors may also be interested in writing news pieces, so the school should encourage those students to write for college newspaper as well. Take this history major for example. He wants to enter the news industry in the future.
2) Having more articles isn't important. There is no point in having too many articles coming in, because the newspaper may not have the resources and time to deal with editing so much writing. The process of preparing an article is complicated, as it includes the efforts of both the editors and the writers. There is a lot of back and forth between those who write and those who review and edit.
NO.10
【學(xué)生寫(xiě)信】:
學(xué)生寫(xiě)信建議學(xué)校的劇院演出應(yīng)該向所有人免費(fèi)開(kāi)放。
好處1:當(dāng)?shù)鼐用衲軌虻玫絝ree entrainment;
好處2:觀眾多了演員會(huì)演的更有熱情。
【學(xué)生態(tài)度】:男生贊成此建議。
理由1:nearby沒(méi)有什么theater, 來(lái)回的交通費(fèi)加上演出費(fèi)很貴。開(kāi)放學(xué)校劇院能讓當(dāng)?shù)鼐用癫挥门芎苓h(yuǎn)就能欣賞到professional的演出;
理由2:男生自己作為一個(gè)actor, 覺(jué)得觀眾多可以給他鼓勵(lì)。舉例說(shuō)當(dāng)表演一段幽默戲的時(shí)候,底下只坐了一半人,沒(méi)什么人笑,會(huì)影響表演質(zhì)量。相反,要是人多,反響熱烈,表演也更有勁了。
Question:Explain the man’s opinion and why he holds that opinion.
NO.11
Task 3
閱讀:一個(gè)學(xué)生給的提議,說(shuō)學(xué)校地上垃圾多,張貼畫(huà)也臟,多。提議學(xué)生組成volunteer,分組拾垃圾。
聽(tīng)力中兩個(gè)學(xué)生討論,一個(gè)女生就不同意,她說(shuō):臟要看情況,我們學(xué)校這么大,人這么多。剛掃干凈,又會(huì)有垃圾,張貼畫(huà),你撕了人家再貼,也是一樣的,而且學(xué)生到學(xué)校是學(xué)習(xí)的,不是做志愿者的。真要干凈校園,學(xué)校要雇人,花錢(qián)叫專(zhuān)人來(lái)干。

NO.13
口3.proposal of adding seats in the Andreson Theater
要求概括這個(gè)proposal以及一個(gè)女生的反對(duì)。
A.seats不夠,很多show是學(xué)生們想去但買(mǎi)不了票的-反對(duì):只有少數(shù)是這樣,大部分show都有位子,所以沒(méi)需要加seats
B.學(xué)校能通過(guò)更多位子賣(mài)更多票增加收入-反對(duì):收入個(gè)毛,這是big investment, construction cost a lot, 而且take years去收回老本。

environment before the other species come and avoid them to utilize the habitat.
Listening part:
alter the
Priority effects occur when a species that arrives first at a site impacts a species that arrives

There’s a kind of small ants(文中始終未給出該螞蟻名稱(chēng)), when they first arrive a new habitat, say an “askentia(音) tree”, their unique habit is to eat part of the tree which produces nectar, because they don’t rely on it. They are altering the environment before any other species come.
There is a kind of bigger ants, they’re more aggressive and can easily occupy the trees as they want, and can force the smaller ants to leave. However, they rely on the nectar produced by “askentia” tree very much. So the smaller ants stop the tree producing nectar to avoid the bigger ants to take up the tree, so that they can stay living there.

閱讀:【課文要點(diǎn)】: Negative Ideation: a method used by people to resist desires by adding something negative. 就是說(shuō)通過(guò)聯(lián)系不好的情況來(lái)resist壞東西,幫人解決壞習(xí)慣.Brood parasites(孵育寄生動(dòng)物): animals that use a unconventional tactic to let other animals hatch their offspring for them.
就是說(shuō)通過(guò)聯(lián)系不好的情況來(lái)resist壞東西,幫人解決壞習(xí)慣。即 make negative associations with the thing, 這樣就可以讓這個(gè)東西變得less appealing and more resistible。教授用一個(gè)自己的例子解釋。
聽(tīng)力:【教授舉例】: 教授舉的他自己戒除巧克力的例子. 教授很喜歡loves chocolate bar because it is tasty, 但吃太多不好. But chocolate is not good. So he used the method of negative ideation to refuse chocolate. 后來(lái)Whenever he wanted to buy chocolate bar he would think it is associate with mud which is the mixture of dirt and water, 來(lái)reduce the temptation, 就戒了he stopped buying.
教授舉例他以前很喜歡吃巧克力,但是過(guò)高的糖分讓他過(guò)于肥胖。為了戒掉巧克力,讓自己更健康,他采取了這種technique,他把巧克力切成小碎末然后拍了一張照片。他想象巧克力是mud做的,這樣逐漸他就覺(jué)得巧克力很惡心,后來(lái)就戒掉了。

NO.6
廣告應(yīng)該忠實(shí)于產(chǎn)品的功能,但是現(xiàn)在的廣告為了達(dá)到吸引顧客的目的,紛紛引用名人說(shuō)的話,這樣可能會(huì)誤導(dǎo)消費(fèi)者(quote out of context)。聽(tīng)力的例子是電影,電影開(kāi)場(chǎng)前,打的廣告是引用名人的話,但是電影播放后結(jié)果確實(shí)是很不好。
NO.7

Lecture: Small Business: drawbacks on home-based business
For many small businesses, instead of renting, they prefer to work from home. Though working from home has its merits, a home-based business has some drawbacks.
1) Can't Maintain a Professional Image
People working in home-based businesses don't set a clear boundary between business and personal life. The customers may think they are not professional and serious about the business. For example, if a home-based business is a catering service that provides food for some major event, a customer would call and not expect a baby crying in the background. However, if it happened, the customer will for sure think that the business is not professional enough for their event and not trust the ability of the caterer to provide good-quality food.
2) Will Affect the Lives of the Neighbors
Use the catering example again, the business may hire two or more workers to help with the preparation of food. These workers may need to park their cars on the street, which would take up the neighbors' parking spots. Having their spots taken, the neighbors would definitely complain.
Question: Describe the two drawbacks of home-based businesses.

Lecture: Two Advantages of the Beta Testing Method in Business
A beta test is an opportunity that gives the intended audience some samples to try the product out first.
1) Get feedback from the customers
The producer can get feedback from the customers who try the product. They will know which aspects of the product the customers like and don't like. A camera company, for example, may give some professional photographers new sample cameras to test out. After testing, the photographers may report, for example, that the flash doesn't work well because it produces too much light. The company will then know they need to work on the flash to make the overall product more desirable.
2) Providing Free Advertising
If the tested audience thinks the new product is satisfactory, it will leave a positive impression in their minds and they may tell others about the product. Even if it's not a perfect product at first, the efforts taken by the company to improve it will convince the photographer customers that the new camera will be very good. They, in turn, will tell other photographer friends about the new product and encourage greater sales.
