Practice 4  Few creations of big technology capture the imagination like giant dams. Perhaps it is humankind’s long suffering at the mercy of flood and drought that makes the ideal of forcing the waters to do our bidding so fascinating. But to be fascinated is also, sometimes, to be blind. Several giant dam projects threaten to do more harm than good.  The lesson from dams is that big is not always beautiful. It doesn’t help that building a big, powerful dam has become a symbol of achievement for nations and people striving to assert themselves. Egypt’s leadership in the Arab world was cemented by the Aswan High Dam. Turkey’s bid for First World status includes the giant Ataturk Dam.

    Practice 2Directions: You are asked to write in no less than 150 words about the title of Advanced Technology Is Changing the Way We Learn. You should base your composition on the following requirements.  1. Give examples to show how advanced technology has changed the way we learn.  2. Tell the advantages of the application of advanced technology in learning.

    正确答案:
    【参考范文】
    Advanced Technology Is Changing the Way We Learn With the development of technology, every aspect of our life has been changed and the way we learn is no exception. The use of computer is a good example. With the help of the computer and Internet we can learn a great amount of knowledge without going to the classroom and asking professors to answer the questions, and we can also get access to the books we want to read in various libraries through the Internet.
    With the application of advanced technology we can learn more easily and efficiently. For example, when we meet some new words while reading English articles, we don’t have to look the new words up in a dictionary. With a click, the computer’s electronic dictionary will immediately tell us the meaning of the new words. In addition, the computer can help us analyze our research data and finish papers more easily.
    In a word, advanced technology has changed the way we learn and has helped us a lot in our study.

    问答题
    Practice 4Directions: For this part, you are allowed 30 minutes to write an essay commenting on the remark “Some people place a high value on loyalty to the employer. To others, it is perfectly acceptable to change jobs every few years to build a career.” You can cite examples to illustrate your point. You should write at least 150 words but no more than 200 words.

    正确答案:
    【范文】
    Should We Change Jobs a Lot or Not? Different cultures place varying values on loyalty to the employer. In some countries, most notably in Asia, there is a high degree of loyalty to one company. However, in most European countries and the United States, loyalty to one’s employer is not highly valued; instead, it is considered more rational and reasonable for an employee to change jobs whenever it is warranted to achieve the optimal overall career. Both of these positions have advantages and disadvantages.
    In cultures that value loyalty to the employer, a kind of family relationship seems to develop between employer and employee. It is a reciprocal arrangement which the employer is concerned with assisting the employee to develop his/her full potential and the employee is concerned about optimizing the welfare of the company. The negative aspect of absolute loyalty to one company is that an employee may stay in one job that he/she has outgrown and may miss out on opportunities to develop in new directions. From the employer’s point of view, the company may be burdened with employees whose skills no longer match the needs of the company.
    In cultures in which it is quite acceptable to change jobs every few years, employees can build the career they choose for themselves. They can stay with one company as long as it is mutually beneficial to company and employee. As long as good relationship exists and the employee’s career is advancing at an acceptable pace, the employee can remain with a company. But at any time the employee is free to move to another, perhaps to achieve a higher position, to move into a new area, or to find a work situation that is more suitable to his/her personality. The disadvantage of this situation is that employees tend to move from around a lot.
    Although both of these systems have advantages and disadvantages, it is much better for employees to have opportunity to move from job to job if it is necessary to have a better career.

    Writing gives you unique ways to think through ideas deeply, come to know subjects well, and absorb those subjects into your lifelong store of knowledge. Even thirty years later, many people can recall details about the topics and content of essays they wrote in college, but far fewer people can recall specifics of a classroom lecture or a textbook chapter.1 By writing, you activate brain processes that help you make connections among your thoughts.2 Such connecting gives you potential access to the pleasures of shocks of recognition, moments when suddenly your mind leaps from what you know to what you did not ‘‘see” before. This access to new insights and increased knowledge are usually unavailable until the physical act of writing begins.
    Writing helps you clarify your ideas by having to think about them and put them into words. The ability to “think about thinking” belongs uniquely to human beings. Such reflective thinking permits you to look back at your ideas, reconsider and perhaps rearrange them, and then perhaps revise them in writing each time getting closer to what you want to say.3The writer E. M. Forster said this about writing, thinking, and reflecting: “How can I know what I mean until I've seen what I said?”
    Your writing teaches others about your subject. Through writing, you create a permanent record of your ideas for others to read and think about. Reading informs and shapes human thought. In an open, free, democratic society, every person is welcome to write and thereby create reading for others.4 For such freedom of idea exchange to thrive, writing and reading skills cannot be concentrated in only a select group of people. All of us need access to the power of the written word. In college, you can exercise that power by writing many different types of assignments. Doing so prepares you for today’s highly technological workplace, in which jobs demand reading with understanding and writing with skill when creating documents that range from letters to formal reports. Also, the ability to write well identifies you as all educated person,5 someone who is well-informed and up-to-date and can be depended on to use language clearly and effectively.
    Four elements define writing: writing is a way of communicating a message for a purpose to readers. Communicating in writing means sending a message that has a destination.6The message of the writing is its content, which originates in your engaging in one or more of the processes of observing, remembering, reporting, explaining, exploring, interpreting, speculating and evaluating. Purpose for writing can be many, as will be discussed later. Readers, also called your audience, are the destination your writing must reach. Taking readers into account as your write is crucial to your success as a communicator.
    Purposes for writing concern a writer’s goals, sometimes called aims of writing or writing intentions. Purpose for writing originates from the motivating forces behind what is being written. The purposes of writing to express yourself and to create a literary work contribute importantly to human thought and culture.7 These purposes offer you the pleasure of writing for yourself as audience and of creatively composing a work of literature for others to read. I concentrate on the two purposes most prominent and practical in your academic life: to inform a reader and to persuade a reader.8 In the service of these purposes, writers can choose among and even combine many effective writing strategies.9 These strategies include narrating, describing, illustrating, defining, analyzing and classifying, comparing and contrasting, drawing an analogy, and considering cause and effect.
