A, Describe a person.1，描述一个好老师的特征A good teacher should have the following characteristics. First of all, he should be knowledgeable and good at teaching. He knows how to attract students’ attention and make them active. Second, a good teacher is supposed to be patient and responsible to students. No matter what kind of students he is dealing with, he should treat them equally and whole-heartedly. Finally, a good teacher should be a good listener. He will always be willing to sit down to share his thoughts with us.2,描述一个朋友的性格特征A good friend should have the following personalities. First, a trustworthy person is someone I can rely on him especially when I am in difficulty, he will be just a phone-call away to get me out of trouble. Secondly, he is someone who can give me some suggestions when I lose my heart. I clearly remember last time I had a bad experience on my job, I was so sad during those period of time and my friend Nana just sat besides me and was such a good listener to support me and inspire me by saying that I was deserved the second chance and never pushing myself too hard would be a better choice. After the nice conversation, I happened to realize that I overcome those dark days with the encouragement she had given to me. Last, a good friend is someone who is positive. Though we always say that prepare for the worst and hope for the best, we seldom do it when we face up the worse situation. At this time, a positive friend has this power to make us believe that it is absolutely right to obey the rule. In the end, I would like to quote a famous saying by Aristotle to end up my response.”What is a friend? A single soul in two bodies.”3,最敬佩的一个人是谁？The person I admire most is my mother. First, she is well educated and has a passion to learn. Since she is very fond of reading, I got a habit of reading when I was little. Thus, I obtained lots of knowledge from reading. Second, she keeps an open mind. There seems to be no generation gap between us. She is always willing to sit down to share her thoughts with me. Finally, my mother is loyal to her friends. I guess that’s why she has so many friends around her. How I wish to be such a wonderful person like her.4,好领导最重要的特征是什么？A good leader is supposed to have a vision. Effective leaders and their organizations have an agenda. A vision is a direction, an attractive and attainable picture of the future. As a leader, if you don’t know where you are going, you are irrelevant to your followers.With a vision, you can inspire and lift individuals and groups to new heights. It is an important function of any leader.Look for experiences that are new and different. Develop relationships with people who are different from the people you ordinarily have relationships with, especially those that come from different backgrounds and age groups.5,描述好家长的性格特征答案参照第三题。

TPO29口语第一题：Personality speaking ,I would like to say that a University Professor is a most rewarding job.The reasons are as follows .First and foremost ,a university professor plays a vital role in cultivating talents for the society.this means a university professor could make great contributions to our world .As we all know,in this exceedingly competitive world ,how can we compete with other countries ,that is talented people .What’s more ,a university professor undoubtedly could solve some sever academic issues that we are confronted with .For instance ,a university professor is able to conduct lectures and seminars in their specialties, such as the fields of science, literature 。

So ,I think a university professor would be a rewarding job .第二题：The reason why I like to study in places where there are few people or no people around is that I can concentrate better on my work. I’m easily distracted when people keep talking around me.More importantly, I can’t focus when studying with people around.Further more ,I can choose my own ways of studying, which brings more refreshment and relaxation. For instance, I like to lie on the sofa and hold a book while others prefer to sit properly in their desk and do their homework.Last but not least ,it enhances my ability to work independently.I always feel happier if I can achieve goals with my own hands.Section2综合任务3通知：从校园中移走那些老旧的自行车原因1：这些自行车放在这已经很长时间了原因2：这些自行车占了很多的地方，要是腾出来可以让那些骑自行车的人有地方停车文中的女的完全同意这个观点原因1：首先这些自行车已经很旧了，很多零件已经丢失并且还生锈了;或者可以告之车主必须在2周内把车取走，不然这些车就会被学校的保安收走原因2：这些车占了学校的很多地方导致一些骑车的学生没有车位停车，导致他们必须到另一个建筑物前停车From the letter we know that the university should remove these old bikes from campus racks, because these bikes have not been moved for a long time and the bikes take up lots of space on campus.In the conversation the woman agrees with the policy for two reasons .Firstly, some parts of these bikes have been lost, like ,handle bars or wheels, and others are really rusty because they have been left outside in the rain for years . Also the university could attach notes to the bike’s owners to remove the bikes in 2 weeks , or they will be removed by the campus security . Secondly, these bikes have taken up lots of spaces in front of the dinning hall, students can’t find any space to park and walk to the dinning hall .4分散储藏：一些动物在食物充足的时候收集并准备很多，另一些动物则是把食物分布在不同的地方储藏起来，用来以备将来之需。

Tpo25Task3 split graduationTraditionally, the university holds one ceremony for all graduating students, during which students are awarded their diplomas. Beginning this year, however, the university will hold two graduation ceremonies. Under the new arrangement, half the graduating students will participate in the first ceremony, and the other will participate in a second ceremony to be held the following day. Administrators cite two reasons for the change. First, the number of students has increased in recent years, and since diplomas are awarded individually, the single ceremony has become uncomfortably long. Also, the hall where the ceremony is held is too small to accommodate the growing audience of friends and family members.Task4 cultural lagTechnological change occurs very rapidly in modern society-sometimes more rapidly than many people are prepared for. As a result, when new technology emerges, people may struggle for a time to adapt to it. This period of transition, when people are adjusting to technological change, is known as cultural lag. At first, people are not accustomed to the new technology and may not understand it, they may therefore have a negative attitude toward it. Over time, however, their attitudes change, and they successfully incorporate the new technology into their daily lives.Tpo26Task3 advisor meetings should no longer be requiredAt present, students are required to meet with their academic advisors before the beginning of every semester. The advisors help students select courses and advise them on graduation requirements. However, I don’t see the point of required meetings, since the necessary information about the courses is already available on the university’s Web site, which all students have access to. In addition, eliminating meetings with advisors would ease the difficulty that students often have in finding a time to schedule a meeting when both they and their advisors are free.Task4 epiphytesIn rain forecasts, the canopy produced by the upper layer of branches may be so dense that few plants can grow on the shady ground below. Even so, many plants have adapted to life in the rain forest, developing fascinating strategies for survival. For example, various species known as epiphytes use a host plant as a platform for growth. Although epiphytes grow on a host tree, they take no nutrients from the tree itself. Attached to the tree, sometimes 30 or 40 meters high, these aerial plants have access to sunlight but not to nutrients from the soil below. As a result, they have developed unusual mechanisms that have allowed them to overcome this problem.Tpo27Task3 switch to electronic textbooksThe university will begin switching from traditional-bound textbooks early next year. University students will be able to download the content of their required textbooks to a reading device and read the material directly from the device’s screen. While the cost of the device is around $200, it is a one-time expense. Considering the rising cost of textbooks, students will save money in the long run since purchasing electronic books for their classes ismuch less expensive than buying regular textbooks. Furthermore, the university believe the device will be the an effective study aid because it is simple to operate and offers features such as highlighting of text and note-taking.Task4 swarm intelligenceSome insect species live in large groups, or “swarms.” Such swarms typically include several thousand individual insects. Living in swarms allows these insects to accomplish complex tasks together through complex behaviors. The behavior of the insects as a group demonstrates a greater level of complexity than the behavior of individual group members. This complex group behavior is called swarm intelligence. With swarm intelligence, each insect performs a simple instinctual behavior that is repeated by other individuals that results in a complex behavior. Insect swarms are able to accomplish tasks that individual insects would not be able to achieve.Tpo28Task3 keep the music building open laterCurrently, the campus music building which has practice rooms student can reserve for playing instruments closes nightly at nine p.m. I think the university should keep the building open until midnight. Often, student musicians want to practice their instruments later at night, and right now there’s no good place for them to do that. Also, lots of students want to use the practice rooms, so it is often difficult to reserve one. If the building were open more hours, though, it would be easier to accommodate the large number of students who want to reserve rooms.Task4 refute-and-persuadeSometimes companies realize that consumers may have developed a negative impression of a product. One way in which they can resolve this problem is by using an advertising technique known as refute-and-persuade. Refute-and-persuade means that in advertising a product, the company first indicates its awareness of the product’s disadvantage. But then the company refutes or challenges that disadvantage by demonstrating how the advantage of buying and using the product makes up for any limitation it may have. In this way, companies can persuade consumers to purchase a product despite its drawbacks.Tpo29Task3 remove old bicycles from campus racksI noticed that there are bicycles locked to the campus bicycle racks that have not been moved for a long time. I think the university should remove these bikes from the racks and dispose of them. I recommend this action because, first of all, they will not be missed by anyone, since this apparently has been forgotten by their owners. More importantly, removing the bikes would help to free up space on the racks, thereby benefiting people who are actually using their bikes and need places to park them.Task4 scatter hoardingMany animals live in environments where food is plentiful during certain times of the year and scarce during other times of the year. In such environments, some animals collect and prepare food when it is plentiful, then hoard it-store it-for future use. Some types of hoarders engage in scatter hoarding. Unlike other types of hoarders, scatter hoarders do not store the food all in one place; instead, they scatter it-divide it up and hide it in many different places. Later, at a time when food is scarce, the hoarders return to these hiding places and recover thefood.Tpo30Task3 campus construction should happen during the summerI have noticed that small construction projects on campus like fixing sidewalks and parking lots often take place during the regular school year, when classed are in session. I propose that whenever possible the university should schedule such construction projects to take place during the three-month summer break. One reason is that construction projects can be so disruptive; they create inconveniences and can make it hard to get where you need to go on campus. And, second, construction projects would be more likely to be completed quickly if they were scheduled for the summer when the weather is usually good.Task4 emotional intelligenceWe often think of human intelligence as the mental ability to analyze and understand complex ideas. However, many psychologists believe that there is a different type of intelligence called emotional intelligence. People with emotional intelligence have the ability to recognize their true feelings and understand what is causing them. This ability to understand their own feelings enables them to better control their emotional responses, changing or correcting them when necessary. Emotional intelligence helps people to behave appropriately in social situations, which allow them to maintain good relationships with others.。

tpo20口语1. Do you think it is important for children to learn about nature? Why or why not?Yes, I strongly believe it is important for children to learn about nature. Firstly, understanding and appreciating the natural world helps children develop a sense of responsibility and stewardship for the environment. It enables them to understand the impact of their actions on the planet and encourages them to make eco-friendly choices. Secondly, spending time in nature has numerous benefits for children's physical and mental health. It promotes physical activity, reduces stress, and fosters creativity. Lastly, learning about nature helps children develop a deeper understanding of the interconnectedness of all living things, fostering empathy and compassion.2. Do you think it is important for adults to continue learning new things throughout their lives?Absolutely, it is crucial for adults to continue learning new things throughout their lives. Learning keeps the mind sharp and helps prevent cognitive decline, which is especially important as we age. It also allows adults to stay adaptable and open-minded, enabling them to navigate the ever-changing world we live in. Additionally, learning new skills or knowledge can enhance personal and professional growth, providing opportunities for career advancement or personal fulfillment. Lifelong learning also promotes curiosity and intellectual stimulation, leading to a more fulfilling and meaningful life.3. How do you think technology has changed the way people communicate with each other?Technology has revolutionized the way people communicate with each other. With the advent of smartphones, social media platforms, and instant messaging apps, communication has become quicker and more accessible. People can reach out to others regardless of geographical barriers or time zones. Additionally, technology has provided numerous channels for communication, from video calls to voice messages, allowing individuals to connect in various ways. However, technology has also led to an increased reliance on digital communication, leading to a potential decrease in face-to-face interactions and a shift towards more impersonal forms of communication.4. Do you think it is important for students to do volunteer work? Why or why not?Yes, I believe it is important for students to do volunteer work. Firstly, participating in volunteer activities allows students to develop a sense of social responsibility and empathy towards others. It exposes them to different social issues and teaches them the importance of giving back to the community. Secondly, volunteer work provides students with valuable life skills and experiences that cannot be acquired solely through classroom learning. It teaches them teamwork, problem-solving, leadership, and communication skills. Lastly, engaging in volunteer work can enhance college or job applications, as it demonstrates a commitment to making a difference and hones their interpersonal abilities.5. How has social media affected the way people form and maintain relationships?Social media has had a profound impact on the way people form and maintain relationships. On one hand, it has made it easier for individuals to connect with others from different parts of the world, facilitating the formation of long-distance friendships and relationships. It has also provided a platform for individuals to discover and share common interests, creating online communities and support networks. However, on the other hand, social media can also lead to shallow or superficial relationships, as online interactions do not always translate to meaningful connections offline. Moreover, the constant exposure to curated versions of others' lives on social media can create feelings of inadequacy and negatively impact self-esteem.。

Choose a place you go to often that is important to you and explain why it is important. Please include specific details in your explanation.I often go to the basketball court near my apartment. It’s very important to me because I play basketball there everyday and basketball is my favorite sport. Ever since I was a little boy, I have been playing in that court with my friends. When in junior high, I practiced shooting and dribbling in that court nearly everyday till late at night. Besides, the court is the reminder of an awful lot of my valuable memories. I still can remember that how I started out shooting badly and then after several weeks’ practice, I could shoot well and dribbled well. I can also remember many friends with whom I played basketball and form teams. Without that court, I couldn’t possibly make so many friends. So it’s very important to me.1. What characteristics do you think make someone a good parent? Explain why these characteristics are important to you.I think a good parent should be patient. Because children are always confused with the things around them, they ask questions every now and then. A good parent should be patient enough to give them answers. When i was very young, I always asked questions like “Why can airplanes fly?”,“Why can’t we fly?” and “Why the earth is a globe?”. My parents answered these questions patiently and if they couldn't, they would buy books that have the answers to my questions. I alsothink a good parent should be open-minded. In other words, they should respect their children's decisions when their kids are growing up. My parents always show their respect to my decisions. My major in the college is software engineering, but I decided to be an English teacher after graduation. My parents respected my decision and allow me to pursue my own interest. Thanks to my parents, I am patient and I respect other people.1. What do you miss most about your home when you are away? Use specific details in your explanation.I miss food most when I am away from my home, particularly the noodles cooked by my father. When I was in high school, my father always cooked noodles for me at night. Every day after evening self-study classes, I came home and had the noodles. The noodles were delicious, coz you know, after long-time study, it’s easy to be tired and hungry. So the first thing I did when I got home at that time was to eat noodles. Sometimes, my father would add beef to the noodles and beef is kind of my favorite meat. The most important ingredient of the noodles is the specially-made sauce. Sadly, I don’t know how exactly my father makes the sauce. But whenever I go back home, I need to have the noodles cooked by my father1.Talk about a place you enjoyed going or visiting when you were a child. Describe the place.Explain why you enjoyed it.When I was a child, I enjoyed going to an Internet Bar. It is still open now. It's only 5-minute's walk away from my home and sits beside the street. The internet bar is not very big. It only has two rooms and each is full of computers. In summer vacations, My friends and I usually went there early in the morning playing many computer games such as Age of Empire, Star War and Counter Strike. The owner of the bar is a very kind person. He opened the door very early in the morning just for us. My friends and I occupied a room, sit side by side and yelled to each other when we were playing games. It was a lot of fun.1. If friends from another country were going to spend time in your country, what city or place wouldyou suggest they visit? Using details and examples, explain why.I would suggest them to visit Chongqing. I lived there for five years so I am familiar with it. Firstly, Chongqing has a unique scenery. It’s a mountainous city. Because of this special terrain, the buildings and Pedestrian Malls are built in a different way from other cities. For example, the fourth floor of one building may be the ground level of another one. Secondly, Chongqing has many kinds of delicious food. Hot pot is like world-famous. Everyone in China knows it originate from Chongqing. Besides, there are some other famous food such as Kung Pao Chicken and double-cooked pork slices. Anyway, if one goes to Chongqing, one will feel that every meal is a feast.1. Talk about a time when a friend or family member helped you in the past. Describe how the person helped you. Then explain why this was important to you.When I was in the third summer vacation in the college, I found a job in downtown. I lived on campus at that time but the campus is very far away from downtown so I got to find a place to live nearby. There was one friend who studied in another college located near downtown. He called me to live with him in his dorm since all his roommates weregone. He introduced me to his campus and told me where to eat, where to buy necessities and where to work out. I didn’t have to pay anything for this housing service. Also, living in his dorm saved me a lot of time. I shorten the travel time from 2 hours to 20 minutes.1. Talk about an important experience that you recently had. Describe what happened and explain why it was important to you.I still remember when I took the TOEFL exam for the first time, my mark was awful, I totally lost confidence in doing a good job on the test, even doubted if my English was any good at all. My dad was the person that helped me through the tough time. First, instead of blaming or punishing me, he spent a lot of time going through the rating card with me to find out what went wrong and how I could improve. Next, he bought many useful books for me to prepare for the test. In the books, I found many sample questions and responses that gave me a good idea of what my answers should be like. He was very supportive in the process, thanks to my dad, I’m more confident this time around that I can do a better job.1. Talk about a time when you accomplished something you didn't think you could do. What did you accomplish? Why did you think you couldn't do it?When I was a sophomore, I took IELTS. I got 8.5 in Listening section which is almost the full mark,9. Originally, I didn’t think I could get above 7 because I couldn’t really follow the speakers’speed and my vocabulary wasn’t big. So I wasn’t confident. But I knew that my weak point was in listening section, so I listened to the IELTS recordings whenever I had time. When I was walking along the street, I listened to the recordings. When I was relaxing, I listened to the recordings. When I was taking a nap, I listened to the recordings. Besides, I bought a book to enlarge my vocabulary. I think it were these efforts I paid that helped me get 8.5.1. What is the most efficient type of transportation in your country? Explain why you think it is efficient. Include specific reasons or examplesI think airplane is the most efficient type of transportation in my country because it’s fast and comfortable. It only takes me three hours to fly from Beijing to Chongqing. This saves me a lot of time. I can go to Chongqing in the morning and come back to Beijing in the evening. However, if I take train or bus, it’ll take me at least 20 hours. So it’s very fast to take planes. Also, every time I am on the plane, the flight attendant serves me delicious food and drink, all free of charge. But ina train, the attendants aren’t very hospitable and you have to pay for all the food and beverage even though they aren’t of high quality. So that’s whyI think taking plane is comfortable.1.

Talk about a game, sport or other group activity that is played in your country. Explain why youthink the activity is enjoyable.Basketball is one group activity that is played in my country. It’s enjoyable because people can relax and get exercise from playing basketball. Almostevery community in my country has a basketball court and every afternoon adults after work and children after school come to play together. Adults play to relax and to get rid of the tiring work in the morning, while some kids come to play for fun and exercise. Some kids enjoy throwing balls into the basket. Some enjoy running around, dribbling and chasing the one with the ball.1. People make friends in many different ways. What do you think is a good way to make new friends? Use specific details and examples in your response.I think attending group activity is a good way to make new friends. In a group activity, people usually have same interests and they perform some tasks together, so there’s a chance that some of the group members need to cooperate. Through cooperation, people start to know each other and then make friends. For example, I always play basketball with strangers. At the beginning, Idon’t even know my teammates’ names. But after a few hours' cooperation, we become friends and start to talk about each other. Sometimes, we even go to have a meal after playing. And actually, this is howI make friends.1. If you could have any job or career you wanted. Which would you choose and why? Give specificdetails to explain your response.If I could have any job I wanted, I would choose to be a writer. There are a couple of reasons why I want to be writer. Firstly, being a writer doesn’t need to go to office or a place full of many other people. Writers usually stay at a quiet place and write articles or books. I enjoy being alone, thinking alone and writing things alone. Every time I am alone, I write stories.

In a word, the ability to find answers by oneself is very important.1. Choose a quality you think makes someone a valuable member f a team.

Even if I wasn’t caught by anyone, I still felt guilty of lying. I found that one lie makes many and that once people realized that I had lied to them, they started not to believe me.
