1. TPO1

1. **[Object]
   Talk about your favourite book.**
   The book that I most like is the Introduction To Algorithm.
   
   I majored in Computer Science in my college and one of the most important classes in my major is algorithm. In my algorithm class, we use the book which is named Introduction To Algorithm.
   
   To be honest, the book is very helpful to me. From this book, I not noly learn the basic programming technic such as binary search and dynamic programming by which I can improve the efficiency of programs. But most importantly, I learn the essential thoughts which can be applied into many aspects of my life. For example, I can find the goal card in a sorted array of cards as soon as possible using the algothrim of binary search.
   In the end, I think I will benefit from the book in my whole life.

1. **[Person Event]
   One of your friends is often late for events and appointments, which makes other angry. You would like to help your fiend. What advice will you give your fiend to help avoid this problem in the future? Use specific details and examples in your advice.**

   Always being late for events is quite a bad habit. I have some advice for my friends.
   
   First, he can make a plan for his event in order to go to the right place on time. For example, he is able to list all the things that he has to do and then oder them by the time sequence. Don’t forget leave some time for every event.
   
   Second, in order to prevent forgeting the event I think he can set his alarm clock. For example, if the event starts at 5p.m. he can set the alarm clock an hour earlier which can ensure him arriving at the right place on time.

   克服主谓一致问题、流利问题
   

2. **[Event]
   Some teachers think that it is important for students to sit in assigned seats, that is, to sit in the same place every day in class.Other teachers think that students should be allowed to choose where they will sit, and they allow them to sit in different seats on different days.Which do you think is better? Explain why.**

   
   In my opinion, it is a greate idea for studnets to choose where they will sit.
   (From my perspective, I prefer the latter option)
   
   One obvious advantage of it is that students are able to have discussions conveniently with other group members who are focusing on the same projects. Proximity does facilitate this kind of discussions. 
   
   Also, it may enable students to establish relationship with more people in the same class. If the seat is fixed, a student’s social connection is very likely to be confined to those around him. A typical case of it is that my nephew who was assigned to sit in the front row in high school, could not even name those sat in the back row after one semester.

3. 【校园生活 - 学生建议】

   In the letter, the student proposes the school to offer the list of textbooks needed for each course earlier. In this way, students can have more time to find cheaper textbooks and start working on their new courses early. 
   In the conversation, the man supports the proposal. The man states that brand new textbooks are usually expensive and the used one, which are much cheaper, sell out quickly. And if the book list are available earlier, students may be able to get textbook online with less money. In addition, the man agree that at the beginning of each semester, students are often quite busy, hard to keep up with all the assignments. If they can have the textbooks earlier, they may have more time to make preparation ahead of the semester.

4. 【生命科学】

   The Professor is trying to illustrate the concept of procedural memories, which refer to the memories of the process of performing a action that become automatic with practice.
   The professor take himself as a example to explain the concept. When professor was a kid, he kept practicing to play guitar, and this kind of repeatedly action establish the procedural memories, and so even if stop playing for several years, as long as the professor pick up the guitar he used to play when he was a child, he can play the original song that he practiced. And that process is automatic because the procedural memories recalled the action that the professor did over and over many years ago.

       * 阅读材料可能和听力材料提供不同/相同的观点，用丰富的语法结构和单词转述你所听到的和读到的。
       * Q4的材料主题有：life science(生命科学), physical science(物理科学), humanities(人文)
       * 阅读材料抽象，听力材料具体（包括举例、反例、应用）
       * 两种类型：
           1. 阅读给出概念的定义，听力给出举例的例子，问题要求你用听力中具体的例子解释这个概念
           2. 阅读给出问题，听力给出一个成功/失败/非计划中的解决方案，问题要求你解释这个尝试并对结果给出描述。
       *不需要包含阅读和听力的所有信息，只需要让没有读过阅读和听力材料的人能够理解你的解释即可。
       * 举例1：
           阅读材料给出: domestication of animals 和 两个characteristics.
           听力材料给出：两个动物。一个是domesticated 另一个是undomesticated。
           问题要求解释两种动物的domesticat的合适性
       Sample:
           Herd animals can be easily domesticated if they have a hierarchical social structure and are not territorial, and this is why it is easier to domesticate horses than antelopes. 
           Take horses as an example, their hierarchical socail structure makes them willing to follow one another and thus allows a human being to act as their leader. Because horses are not territorial, they can be harnessed together without fighting.
           However, male antelopes fight if they are together, and that because antelopes do not have a socail hierarchy, humans connot control then by acting as their leader. 
       * 举例2
           阅读材料给出malaria的发病原因、传播途径、和防治办法。
           听力材料给出一个医生的工作。
           问题要求你描述医生的观点关于疾病的成因和制止疾病传播的建议，然后解释为什么医生的建议是有效的。
