三,  2009.10.18中国大陆地区考题

题目简介:

       Reading 

       哲学系新举措:中午在dining hall 举行table talk,并让教授加入午餐,为了

       1. Education benefit
       2. Network and friendship 
       3. 学生们都赞成

       Listening 

       女孩很同意因为:

       1. 教授平时很忙, office hour很少,这个program提供机会向教授提问和探讨课程的问题。
       2. 她现在还不是很熟悉这些同学,可以利用table time 来交流。

       >>回答演示:

    The school has implemented a new proposal to set up a “table talk” at lunch time in the dining hall during which a professor will be invited to join the lunch. The woman holds a positive view towards the announcement for the following reasons. 

    First, if the professor sits with students, the program will provide a chance for students to ask questions and understand their courses better. Normally, professors are quite busy and office hours do not allow enough time for all students to talk to the professor. 

    Another reason is that she is unfamiliar with the other students and so the table talk could help to enhance student relationships. Guests can communicate and share similar ideas and hobbies.

四, 新托福官方试题TPO3

       Reading 

       学校将停止提供热早餐

       理由:

       1. 冷的食物更健康。
       2. 限制早餐食物种类更省钱。

       Listening 

       女孩不同意因为:

       1. 热的食物在寒冷的天气对身体更好。
       2. 去校园外买满意的食物会更贵。

       >>回答演示:

    The school has implemented a new policy that the students will be offered a cold breakfast instead of a hot one. The woman is totally against the announcement. The first reason she gives is that hot food like cereal are sometimes better for health than cold foods, especially on a cold morning.     

    Her second reason is that the new policy will make students spend more money rather than save money. When students can’t buy the food they want on campus, they will have to go off campus and pay more money for expensive food.

       通过以上的陈述以及范例讲解,专家们希望考生们可以充分体会并理解,在口语表达的清晰与连贯性上,四大状语从句所起的至关重要的作用,并在考试中有效运用,以助考生们获得理想成绩。
