来自：查字典高考网 2014-12-25

例1：

Notes from the material:

The woman like the apartment, but not her roommate

Uses her things without asking toothpaste, paper

Never cleans the bathroom

Man two solution：resort to the apartment manager ; move out

Question:

Describe the womans problem with her roommate and the suggestions the man makes about how she could deal with it. What do you think the woman should do and why

Sample Answer:

In this listening material, the woman has a problem with her roommate because her roommate uses her things without asking . Also, her roommate doesnt clean the bathroom. So the woman is not happy about the situation. The man gives her two suggestions. One is to discus the problem with the apartment manager. The other one is to move out. As far as I am concerned, I think the second suggestion is better. First, because I had the same problem. It is a better way to solve the problem when you move out and get a new roommate. Also, moving out to find a new roommate means you have a new friend. Perhaps she or he can help you somewhat. Like your study or your career development.

例2：

TOPIC:

choosing the number of courses to take his choices:

take 4 courses (full time)

take 5 courses (more than full time)

reasons for taking 5 courses:

could possibly graduate early

reasons against taking 5 courses:

more than full time too much work

not currently doing well in 4 courses

Question:

The students discuss two possible choices the man can make. Describe the choices. Then state which of the choices you, and explain why。

Sample answer:

In this conversation, the man is talking to the woman about how many courses he should take next semester. He can take either four courses, which is a full-time schedule, or five courses, which is more than a full-time schedule. The reason that he is considering taking five courses instead of four is that he may be able to graduate early if he takes more than four classes.

The woman points out to him that taking five classes is more than a full-time schedule, that taking five classes is a lot of work, and it will be hard for him to do well in five classes if hes not currently doing well in four classes.

It also seems to me that its not a good idea for him to take five classes if hes not doing extremely well in four classes. I think that he should try to do much better in four classes, and if he can do really well in four classes next semester, maybe after that he can consider taking five classes.

例3：

TOPIC:

different ways to write a paper

her method: planned a whole lot worked on outline for two days

his method: didnt plan at all wrote without an outline opinion

maybe best method is somewhere in between

she plans too much ; he doesnt plan enough

Question：

The students discuss different methods of dealing with a paper. Describe the methods. Then indicate what you think of the two methods, and explain why

Sample answer：

In the conversation, the students are discussing a paper they have to write, and they have very different ways of writing a paper.

The womans method is to plan a whole lot. She has been working on the outline for two days. While The mans method is to not plan at all. He writes without planning at all and then maybe goes back and fixes the organization.

I think that the best method is somewhere between these two extremes. It is good to plan before you write, but the woman here spent too much time planning. And the man didnt spend enough time planning. When I write a paper, I like to spend some time planning and then get started on the writing after I have spent some time planning.

例4

TOPIC: reasons for bad grade on assignment

what she did incorrectly on the assignment:

researched and wrote facts (not opinion)

wrote 8-page paper (not succinct and to the point)

Question：

The students describe the reason why the woman had a particular problem. Describe the problem then indicate what you think this woman should learn from this.

Sample answer：

In this conversation, the man and the woman are discussing an assignment they have just completed. She got a bad grade on the assignment and he got a high grade. So she wants to know why.

As she described how she finished the assignment. The man begins to understand why her grade on the assignment is not good. First she researched the theory and presented facts on it while the professor wanted opinions instead of facts. Second, the woman wrote too much while the professor has asked a paper that was succinct and to the point. She wrote 8 papers while the mans well-written assignment was under 2 pages.

From this, it is important for the woman to learn from her mistakes and she should learn that it is important to follow the professors directions exactly. If a professor says to write her opinion , she should write her opinion rather than facts. If the professor says to write a concise paper , the paper should be concise and not overly long.
