T1.

Describe a social or political event in your culture.

A type of social event celebrated in my culture is the flag-raising ceremony on National Day. Oceans

of (表示“許多”)people from all across the country come to Beijing the day before. They are very excited to see the ceremony with their own eyes instead of on TV. Some even have been planting this dream in their mind for years. They arrive around 6:00 early in the morning, waiting for the special moment. I guess they are alloverwhelmed (震撼的) and thrilled (激動)by the wonderful scene at the time. On the other hand, the view of the honor guard parade is fantastic, the guards are wearing the green military uniform and marching to Tianmen Square with a high spirit. Each birthday celebration of the great country always

begin with such a solemn (莊嚴的) flag-raising ceremony, which strengthens the unity and motivation of its people.

T2.

Should government give financial support to build museums and theaters? State your opinion and explain why.

In my point of view, government should provide funds to build museums and theaters because they serve as exhibition centers for people to know about the history and culture of the country.

The range of museums is fantastic—there are museums of ancient history and archaeology, of natural history and even museums for such things as transport and crime! And because the museums are constantly holding new exhibitions, there is always something different to see.

Theaters offer people a big place to enjoy a variety of operas and plays of different regions. Even the world’s best group come occasionally. Meanwhile, the building of the museums and theaters will enhance the cultural exchange between countries. They are also one of the contributing factors that promote the national economy.

That’s why I think it’s a good idea for government to help with the building of the museums and theaters.

T3.

Reading:

【學校通知】：astronomy professor 的一封信，信中反對學校的“亮燈工程”(給 building 裝飾燈).理由有兩個：一是浪費錢，每月多花 1000 dollar 的電費;二是造成光污染，天文系觀測不到星星了。

Listening: 【學生議論】：男生同意。

原因有二：

1)花那麼多錢，沒有實際作用，只為了看!

2)望遠鏡觀測不到星星，還不如把錢投到天文項目上去。

Sample answer:

The reading passage is a letter from an astronomy professor in which he expressed his negative opinion about the school’s keeping the decoration lights for building on the whole night through. He thinks it’s waste of money on one hand, and on the other hand, it produces light pollution.

In the listening material, we clearly learn that the man agrees with that professor. One reason he gives is that it’s unnecessary to spend so much money on decoration and there

isn’t any practical use. Another reason is that students from the Astronomy Department won’t be able to use telescope to watch the stars.He also points out that the money would be spent on astronomy project.

Therefore, he disagrees with the lights-on project.

T4.

Reading: 【課文要點】關於印象管理 impression management

Listening:【教授舉例】舉了兩個例子：

1)同學做 presentation 時注意形象。

2)假設大學校長要搭他的車，他會先把後座清理，然後洗車，當校長上車時，放他本人並不喜歡聽的古典音樂，以求博得好印象。

Sample answer:

In this set of materials, the reading passage gives a definition of impression management. It states thatimpression management is the process through which people try to control the impressions other people form of them.

In the listening passage, the professor gives a talk on it. He goes on to further explain that by giving two examples. First, a student may pay more attention to his image when he is going to give a presentation.Second, suppose the principal planned to get a ride in his car.

He would clean the backseat and wash the car. He would also play the classic music that he doesn’t really like to leave a better impression.

By these means, he proves that people can manage the impressions to steer other’s opinions in the service of personal or social goals.

T5.

【學生困難】：女生找了一個研究助理的工作，但每天只讓她做事務性的工作，比如複印，接電話什麼，接觸不到真正的生物研究

【解決方案】：男生給她兩個建議：

1)讓她去學生中心看招聘的 lists，換個工作。

2)跟教授談一下，換些和研究沾邊的工作。

Sample answer:

The discussion is between two students. The female student is telling her friend about her problem at her job now. She is working as a research assistant, but just does office routines such as photocopying, faxing, transfering calls, etc. -----nothing related to the biological research. The male student suggests she browse the job lists at the student center and change a job. He also suggests she talk to the professor to do something relevant to the reseach. I think the second idea serves her purpose better

‘cause if she communicated with her professor , her professor would understand her idea and then would give her a different option. And if she really did something related to the research, she could connect her classroom studies with hands-on, real world experience.

T6.

【講課要點】：講 moral persuasion.用一些方法向人們呼籲責任(appeal to duty。舉了兩個例子：

1. smokey bea(r

護林熊：森林防火標誌, 是一頭穿著護林人員制服的漫畫熊),引起人們對保護動物的關注和敏感;

2. recycling campaign，鼓勵人用分類垃圾桶裝垃圾，說看到鄰居這樣做了，人們通常也會學著做。

Sample answer:

The leture tells about moral persuasion. That is to use some ways to appeal to duty. Then the professor gives two examples to further explain it. First, he takes smokey bear for example. Smokey bear is a kind of bear for forest fire safety and prevention. They are used to arouse people’s attention and sensitivity about animal protection. Another example is recycling campaign. It is to encourage people to dump garbage into separate trash cans. When people see their neighbor do that, they will normally follow them.
