2012年7月28日托福北美机经转播

　　考生1回忆：
　　北美的机经：
　　阅读和听力实在记不起来了，不能误导大家，不说了。口语和作文还是记得的。不过，还请同志们多多参考其他人的吧。
　　口语：
　　1。你认为以下哪个职业最困难，最辛苦：1。（忘了），2。（忘了），3。Police Officer. 记性差，莫见怪。。。
　　2。学生该不该去什么科学、艺术、历史等类的museum？
　　3。Reading: changes in career service. Listening: woman thinks it's great. Reasons: 1. One day, she went the office(forget the name...), the adviser was really helpful. Told her what to put in her resume and how to do the cover letter. 2. Changes will benefit the students in the program a lot. Last year, her sister had an internship. Because she was such a good writer (or, something? I forget), she was offered the job position after the graduation.
　　4. Reading: availability error. People experienced an event which made great impression on them. Although there is evidence that it won't happen, people still believe it'll happen again.
　　Listening: The prof. talks about his own experience. Years ago, he and his wife went for a trip in an island. Unluckily, it rained all day, so they had no chance to explore the beach. Since then, whenever they plan to travel, her wife never wants to go to the island again, even though the prof. has checked that it doesn't rain that so often.
　　5. Listening: The man has a problem. This year is his calculus prof.'s first teaching. He isn't used to his way of explaining... The prof. teaches too fast, he gets confused. Two solutions: 1. He says he can switch to another calculus section, but has to take it in the evening when he wants to do homework or hang out with friends. 2. He also says he can organize a study group to discuss what they learnt after class. But it'll cost extra time.
　　6. Lecture: The topic is the two benefits of (忘了）。说的是，哺乳类动物哺育后代行为，就是母兽可能离开小崽子一会儿。俩好处：1. safety benefit. Take deer for example. Deer hide their young in the high grass and only check the nest once a day, because they check the nest too often, it'll be easily found by the predators. 2. The second benefit is that the young don't need to be fed too often(这是我记得的，感觉不太像好处。。。）. For example, the milk of the rat is rich in nutrients. The young just need to have a little and that's enough... (现在感到越来越奇怪，同志们再去参考下别人的吧。。。）
　　作文：
　　1。Reading: Many birds died at the night of New Year's Day in the town. It might be related to the fireworks. 3 reasons: 1. (好像是，记不清了）Birds died at the same time when the fireworks were set off. People found that birds fell down... blabla... 2. Birds weren't poisoned or (forget a 2nd reason), but people found injuries. So they must be injured by the impact the fireworks. 3. Most of the birds are red-winged blackbirds. They have weak night vision and seldom fly at night. Only when something unusual happened, like the firework, they fly at night.
　　Lecture: Disagree. 3 reasons: 1. There are actually two places where we find dead birds. One is in the town, and the other outside town, where there weren't fireworks. So fireworks couldn't be the reason for either case. 2. The birds were indeed injured, but there are other possible reasons, for example, they were pushed by the weird air pressure down to the ground. 3. In fact, red-winged blackbirds are the most common birds in this area, so it's natural that they were the most common victims.
　　2。When you are assigned an important presentation for work or school, you prefer to work on it right away so that you can work on it a little bit every day, or wait until you have a good idea about the presentation?
