  SPEAKING
  1.suggestion for child who is going to start school
  What suggestions would you like to give to a child who is starting school for the first time. Use reasons and specific examples to explain why these suggestions are important.
  Well, personally, I will suggest that child to work hard and play hard. Working hard means concentrate on his or her school works. To learn something in school should be in priority for a child attending school. And playing hard means that he or she should have fun in daily life as well. It is too tough to ask a kid to study all day long. And going outside to play some games may be helpful to that child mentally. Moreover, relaxation is necessary for children to study well. That is why I highly suggest that a child who is starting school for the first time to work hard and play hard.
  My answer :
  --Cultivate independence; go to school and come back home by oneself and with classmates;
  --form good habits, like watch fewer TV and read more book/
  2 prefer to by food which is already prepared or by fresh food to cook yourself
  Do you prefer to eat prepared food or uNPRepared food and meat?
  My answer:
  Prepared food:
  --save time, I’m busy and cook food cost too much of my time, but eating food just take a few minutes, which make my feel it is not worthwhile to cook food by myself.
  --I can choose various food in the supermarket. If I buy uNPRepared food, I can just choose limited sorts.
  *** -- I am not good at cooking and I feel it really hard to cook delicious food.
  I cannot stand the noisy and smell in the kitchen.
  Sometimes when my friends come over, they will cook for me and I play a role as an assistant.
  3.学生写信建议让学生带laptop computer说因为大家打字都很快了,所以方便记笔记,这样就更能够好好的听教授的lectures.其次,教授可以让学生上网,浏览更多的信息像图片什么的。
  学生意见:不同意。1.有少部分会用电脑记笔记,但大部分都用来play for fun, check email, surf internet什么的了。2.有部分学生是没有电脑的。因此教授只能直到有电脑的学生用Internet tool

   Listening:
  disapproval;
  --(1) students will use computers to emails to their friends, play computer games instead of taking notes;
  --(2) not everyone have laptop computer, so the professor can only direct part of students
  4.suspension of disblief. [新航道《口语真经》(3)p223] 教授举例讲人们会自我情绪代入戏剧中
  concept; in order to get emotionally invovled in the drama, audience should put aside the idea that all the things on the stage are imaginary and try to convince them that all the things are real.
  example:his roommate:dress like a old man . walk slowly and get sick. At first he thinks that it is not real.But with the development of the play, the old man lost his job, he and his family members can't pay for the bills. The old man's illness get worse.The professor feel sad for they. While, in the end, all the family members have found new jobs and the old man's disease have been cured.The professor feel relaxed.

  cloud seeding 来减少冰雹
  是有关冰雹的防止的问题
  阅读里面讲的是一种叫cloud seeding的方法就是把碘化银打到云里面去文章认为这种方法可以有效的防止了冰雹对美国农业的危害
  第一点原因是在实验室的环境下,冰冰雹是在接近零度的时候形成的,而在加入了碘化银后冰雹没有形成教授的反驳是这是在实验室的环境中,而在现实生活中情况是不同的而且把cloud seeding可能会导致其他种类的降水(例如雨雪)也被限制 从而导致干旱
  第二点是在亚洲的一部分城市的应用表明cloud seeding确实在这些城市起到了防止冰雹的作用教授的反驳是这些城市都有空气污染,空气中的污染颗粒(PM2.5??)在防止冰雹的过程中也起到了很重要的作用(这一点的原因大家可以百度一下雨的成因在这里就不科普了) 而美国的农业地区空气污染很少 所以没有这些污染颗粒 所以这个方法在这些地方不一定有用。
  第三点是在美国中部曾经用过could seeding这个方法而且数据表明确实有冰雹下降的现象教授的反驳是这种冰雹减少的现象在那个时候是一个大范围的改变不仅限于美国中部(cloud seeding被用的地方) 所以这种改变更大程度上应该是气候改变的原因。
  INDEPENDENT WRITING
