Task 2:
1、上午场:阅读:关于改变宿舍晚上留宿政策的,大学计划让学生的朋友或亲人留宿不超过3晚,因为会造成室友的不便,但是提供了一个附近酒店的list,之前没有这个限制。
听力中男生反对。一是visitors一般很polite,也不太出房间。室友之间可以通过内部协商解决住宿问题,而不需要学校实施过于严格的政策;二是来住宿的人通常不会长时间留在宿舍内,hotel很贵,cannot afford,可能会让他们朋友will not visit。
2、下午场:阅读:在学校安装饮水机,好处是可以让学生们用自己的杯子接水;可以督促学生多喝水而不是饮料。
听力中不同意。一是学生一直认为买一次性的瓶装水很方便。二是 大家都爱喝带甜味的饮料,安了饮水机也不会很好的改善状况。
Task 3:
1、上午场:预测性适应假说(关于adaptation的)。动物在紧张的环境下会提高自身水平以应对未来相似的场景。听力举了蜜蜂的例子,一组小时候就挨饿,一组小时候有充足的食物,成年后再给两组蜜蜂一个短期食物短缺测试,小时候挨饿的可以更高效的利用食物,另一组则会更快饿死。
2、下午场:阿利效应(Allee Effects)指的是物种到达一定很低的数量就没有办法自行调节恢复了。听力中通过海胆Sea urchins的例子说明,如果人类捕食太多成年海胆就会使幼年海胆失去庇护,最终被掠食者消灭殆尽。

Doctor
As teachers play an invaluable role in shaping young minds and preparing students for the future, there is an ongoing discussion regarding their compensation. Some argue that teachers should be paid salaries comparable to other high-earning professionals like doctors, lawyers and business executives. Do you agree or disagree that teachers deserve salaries on par with these professions? Please explain your viewpoint.
Kelly:
Teachers should receive salaries on par with other high-earning professionals. They work long hours preparing lessons, grading assignments, and supporting students. Without good teachers, we wouldn't have doctors, lawyers, and executives. If we want to attract the best talent to this invaluable profession, we must compensate teachers accordingly. My favorite teachers inspired me and contributed greatly to my success.
Paul:
I don't think teachers deserve the same high salaries as doctors or lawyers. Teachers get so much time off, with summer vacations and other long breaks. My aunt is a teacher and she's always posting on Facebook about trips she takes or sleeping in during vacations. With all that time off, teachers shouldn't earn salaries on par with year-round demanding professions.
2、下午场:是否认同diverse workforce对公司的效率、生产等有积极影响?
Claire支持,因为这会让员工感觉have fun和enjoying。
Paul反对,因为会有potential problems,例如员工之间会misinterpret the behavior。

1、有危险,可能会困在冰层或者撞上冰山;
2、油轮的发动机在燃烧的时候会污染环境,排放的颗粒加快冰雪的融化;
3、船上游客数量比当地居民多很多,下船活动或者采买都会打扰当地居民。

3、bacteria infection。
听力中反驳:
1、当地还生活着其他种类的鲸鱼,他们会摄入更多的化学物质,但都没有影响繁殖;
2、科学家测量发现,船只引擎发出的噪音大概跟暴风雨一样大,而暴风雨并不会影响鲸鱼的听觉;
3、鲸鱼体内有少量的某种细菌是不会生病的,人们需要确定鲸鱼真的有肺部损伤,但鲸鱼难以被检测,所以也不确定细菌的影响。
