    Practice 3  To the average person knowledge itself is of importance because of its bearing upon what he needs to do and to make. It helps him in clarifying his wants, in constructing his ends and in finding means for realizing them. There exist, in other words, values as well as known facts and principles, and philosophy is concerned primarily with values—with the ends for the sake of which man acts. Given the most extensive and accurate system of knowledge, man is still confronted with the question of what he is going to do about it and what he is going to do with the knowledge in his possession.

    问答题
    Recently, the fact that more and more students are spending too much time playing computer games has aroused great concern. What influences do the computer games have on people and what should we do with them? Write a composition to give your views. You should write at least 120 words.

    正确答案:
    Nowadays, most of the boy students are crazy about playing computer games. The parents and teachers are very concerned with this situation. Then what influences does the computer game have on the players and what should we do with it?
    The computer games can give the players intellectual confidence and enhance their learning on a certain degree. However, their disadvantages are more prevailing. Most of the video games are of violent theme, which may desensitize the players to violence and alter their perception of reality. That may also give them the false idea that violence is an acceptable way to deal with problems and conflict. Meanwhile, spending too much time on video games would certainly affect their study. Concerning this, we should control children’s time spent on playing computer games and encourage them to do some other activities, such as doing sports, reading and travelling.

    What does “brain drain” refer to?
    A

    An activity that uses the brain to create a lot of wealth.

    B

    Applying for positions in foreign countries.

    C

    The movement of professional people to a rich nation.

    D

    The training of skilled individuals in developed countries.


    正确答案: B
    解析:
    录音中提到“This brain drain will accelerate as the global economy expands.”(随着全球经济的扩张,这种人才流失将会加快),This brain drain指的是“人才流失”,结合前文中讲的内容也即是专业人才移向富裕国家,所以选C。
    【录音原文】
      New information and communication technologies are driving the global economy. They have brought down the cost of global communication, and innovative tools have become easier to use. The Internet, mobile phones and electronic funds transfer are opening up the global marketplace. The Internet had more than 140 million users in the middle of 1998, but 93% of users were in the richest 20% of nations.
      Improved communication can foster great advances in health care and education. It also breaks down barriers of size, time, and distance. With the Internet, consumers can purchase products from any country in the world, and any innovative producers can easily reach a much larger market place and take advantage of economies of scale.
      Improvements in technology also bring up the issue of intellectual property rights. Tighter property rights are increasing the price of technology transfer, blocking many developing countries from their use, whether it is in production, communication, education or health care, this in turn increases the power and wealth of those who largely own the property fights.
      What is more, new information and communication technologies have also promoted the international movement of labor. This movement has been growing since the 1960’s. Now about 2.3% of the world population lives outside their country of birth and 1.5% of the world’s workforce works in countries other than those of its citizenship. This trend is on the increase with the World Wide Web opening the door for skilled individuals to apply for positions in almost any country in the world. In developing countries, students are studying subjects that will give them a passage from their current existence to one of expected wealth in a rich nation. This brain drain will accelerate as the global economy expands.

  • 第18题:

    In a teaching training, David Nunanasked a question: "What do you do?" One of the audiences answered: "I teach English." David Nunansaid: "No, you teachkids." What do you do think of Nunan′s reply? Write a composition inEnglish of no less than 150 words without any personal information.


    答案:
    解析:
    What Do YouTeach, English or Kids? What Nunan saidtruly triggered me a lot. It is universally acknowledged that there are twoimportant and prevalent forms of class--teacher-centered and students-centered.In China, most of the classes are teacher-centered. Teachers spend a lot ofclass time speaking, while students are busy listening to their teachers ortaking notes, so that their thinking time is reduced or even ignored, which isnot good for their comprehensive development.
    "You teachkids" means as a teacher we should have more time to think about thestudents and know more about their characteristics, knowledge level, interestsand so on. Thus, A students-centered class should be highly praised and widelyused by every qualified teacher instead of paying attention to the subject orteachers themselves, which are more advantageous than the former one. Firstly,the students are more likely to concentrate their minds and be enthusiastictowards class in which they can participate and interact more. Secondly, thestudents will be more active and willing to cooperate better with theirteacher, and the teacher can get the feed backs through their students' correspondingresponses and improve his teaching and choose the optimum teaching methodsaccordingly. Thirdly, autonomous learning and creative thinking abilities canbe cultivated. They can share or express their own opinions freely in theclass.
    In a word, I firmlyagree with Nunan' s viewpoint that teachers should attach more importance tothe kids and the students-centered class needs to be encouraged.

  • 第23题:

    问答题
    Do you agree or disagree with the following statement? People are never satisfied with what they have; they always want something more or something different. Write a composition of about 400 words to state your view on the issue.

    正确答案:
    Satisfaction is only a temporary feeling of being content, for human desire, stimulated by both physical and mental needs, connects with changes in our world, our society and ourselves. It is true that people are never satisfied with what they have in the long run and they always want something more or something different. This unsatisfactory perception, together with the desire for something more or different, exists perpetually for three major reasons.
    First of all, the continuous emergence of new products constantly motivates people's desire to get things new and different for better. For example, people replace their computers with new ones that are quicker in speed and more in functions long before their machines get worn-out. This happens as a result of the rapid development of science and technology that enables improved computers and softwares to come out into the market at a much faster speed than the speed for a computer to get old. Nobody will not be satisfied with iphone4 when iphone5 appears. People are always longing for something new and better.
    Secondly, people's improvement in financial status invites their dissatisfaction with what they have. A good example of this is the purchase of a newer house on a better location with a nicer view when one has saved enough or when one gets a raise knowing that paying back a mortgage is not a problem. From this perspective, people's dissatisfaction goes along with the development of economy.
    Finally, the vanity to keep up with the neighbors and friends also spark off people's dissatisfaction with what they have. A car is originally meant to be a means of transportation. However, there are people who trade in their nice cars for a Benz, BMW, Volvo or a Luxury simply because their friends or neighbors drive these makes. When food is no longer a problem, people began to pursue a life of high quality.
    Superficially, people's endless discontents with what they have sounds greedy and unpleasant. But it is, in fact, this discontent of our humans' that pushes our society to continuously create things new and different to meet people's desire.
    解析:
    题目里提到人从不满足,作者在第一段里肯定了这一说法,并在接下来的三段分别进行论证。其中使用了First、Second、Finally等衔接词使文章脉络清晰,此外还用的了逻辑推理和举例法使论据更加丰富。最后一段总结全文。
