13、aking notes in class means wasting of time, and what you should do is listening intently to the lecturer. reason 1 Firstly, making notes is undoubtedly time consuming. The only thing it tests is your writing speed rather than your intellectual capability. In fact. we learn because we want to stimula

14、te our minds, not to mechanically copy from what others have written down. reason 2 Secondly, learning is a course of interaction, you learn something from the teachers, and only by thinking can it become your own knowledge. So our attention should be directed towards the lecturers, and discuss with

15、 them when we meet Some questions, and the class time should be spent on understanding the materials rather than writing everything down without any thought. In the latter way, you actually dont acquire anything from the class. This is just the difference between a good student, and a great student.

19、that opinion. （分数：20.00）_正确答案：(opinion The man does not agree to add a kitchen to the student dormitory. reason 1 One reason is that the place of dorm room is limited if students want to have some activities after class, such as watching TV or holding theme parties, so there would be no more room le

20、ft for a kitchen in the dormitory. reason 2 The other reason is that as students they are so busy with their class assignments, they dont have any time to cook at all. Besides, some of them dont have the basic cooking skills. So learning to cook from a recipe book seems rather a waste of time.)解析：听力

21、原文 W: Hi, look. I think the school will be right if they follow this proposal. M: You really think so? I dont like it. Look, in the dorm room students should do all the activities except cooking, because recreational activities like holding parties, watching TV or films and etc can bring students in

22、variably creative, inclusive and amazing fun, especially after having spent a whole day on their studies. Therefore, I believe the school should keep kitchens out of dormitories and leave more space for entertainment. W: That is true. In addition to full time study during the day, we all should have

23、 some fun and slow down. M: Thats right! Our schedules are always fully packed with assignments, seminars, exams, or even part-time jobs. So making ourselves regular meals every day is something impossible for us. Also, some students dont know how to cook, and learning to cook from a recipe book wil

24、l definitely consume a lot of time they would otherwise spend on their studies. W: Thats right. Many students even never consider cooking in their dorm room. Eating in schools cafeteria is easy and can save them a lot of time. M: Absolutely!五、BSpeaking Questi(总题数：1，分数：20.00)4.Animal CommunicationCom

25、munication is a process by which meaning is shared among living creatures. Animals communicate by combining multiple signals, like movements or sounds, in order to convey meaning. Though animal species cannot speak like human beings, they rely on a combination of movements or actions to make their i

26、ntentions known. Examples of these include elaborate mating rituals, territorial dances, and various calls.

27、w animals communicate by combining movements or actions. （分数：20.00）_正确答案：(topic (reading) The reading is on the topic of animal communication. Though animals cannot speak a language as we do, they have their own methods to express meanings, thats by a mixture of certain movements and sounds. The pro

28、fessor sets how his own dog acts in two different situations as an example. example 1 First, if some unpleasant noises like a truck or a lawnmower annoys him, he will immediately run toward the noise, with his ears standing up. example 2 However, when he wants to play with another dog, youll also se

29、e his ears bristling. But in such case he also wags his tail. What he wants to means is that he is happy. So the meaning of the same motion changes with different environments owing to combining of various signals in communication)解析：听力原文 M: Animal communication is simple, but sometimes one action c

30、an have two different meanings depending on the context. Thats why its important to read behaviors as a combination of signals. Let me give you an example. We all know that dogs are very expressive animals. In fact, dogs put many motions together to convey a feeling. Take my own dog as an example. U

31、nder two different circumstances he will exhibit the same behaviors. Only by taking his actions in combination can you understand what he is trying to express. My dog hates loud noises so when the garbage truck comes by our house or if our neighbors mow their lawns, his ears will stand up. In additi

32、on, he will run toward the noise and start barking. This means that he is agitated or angry. Now you might think that his ears standing up means hes angry., But his ears also stand up when he sees the neighbors dog. This isnt because he is angry or irritated, but because he is happy. How can I tell?

33、 Well, he gets very excited and wags his tail vigorously when he wants to play with another dog. So this is an example of why we should view communication as a combination of behaviors. Sometimes, the same movements can mean two different things in two different contexts.六、BSpeaking Questi(总题数：1，分数：

34、20.00)5.The speaking discusses two possible solutions to the mans problem. Describe the problem and the two solutions.

35、to attach some photos to the newspaper. But soon he found that these pictures were not developed properly and he could do nothing on it. solutions The woman gives him two possible options. He can publish the article without any pictures attached to the newspaper or take the place of such photos with

36、 new ones. best solution For me, the latter one may be better. reasons Because newspapers with more colorful and meaningful images will undoubtedly interest readers. So removing the pictures from the article would make it seem so sterile. Instead, the man can replace them with some new photos since

37、there is still one day left before the deadline.)解析：听力原文 W: Hello, dear. I havent seen you since our seminar last week. How is everything going? M: I am fine. My article is about to be published on our school newspaper. W: Oh, thats great! But.you dont look very happy. Whats going on? M: Some pictur

38、es I was supposed to attach to the newspaper have run into a little problem. I mean the photos developed are not clear. But the worst thing is that no one seems to know how to clean up and make them look perfect. W: Why not just publish the article without any pictures? M: No, I really cant do this

39、because images are greatly required in order to capture students attention to my article. Typically, younger readers like college students spend less time reading the newspaper than older readers. They would respond more favorably to interesting and informative pictures engaged in a story than to th

40、e scenario alone. So we need pictures to attract students to our newspaper. W: Yes, that makes sense to me. Magazines with more entertaining and colorful graphics usually attract a lot of young readers. So how much time is left before your article is published in the newspaper? M: I guess I have jus

41、t one day left. W: Okay. Why dont you take some new pictures since you still have some time? M: Maybe youre right! But theres only one day away from the scheduled day. Isnt it too late to take new pictures?七、BSpeaking Questi(总题数：1，分数：20.00)6.Using points and examples from the talk, explain two strat

44、ation. example 2 The second approach is to have the students built up a personal relationship on the rule. The professor prevented her students from cheating by having them signed a piece of paper in which they promised they would not cheat in the exam, With such paper posted in the front of the roo

45、m by the teacher, the students would not even try to cheat in the exam because of their self-respect,)解析：听力原文 W: Teachers have one of the toughest and most important jobs; therefore, it is critical to every nations future to train good teachers. One key to being a good teacher is to set rules and bo

46、undaries for your students. But how do you get students to follow these rules? Here are two strategies you can employ. Firstly, it is important to explain the rule and why you are making it.
