Task 1

Some people think that those children who do not want to keep learning a musical instrument course should be required to keep learning the course; while others think that those children should be allowed to make decisions by themselves (they can still do exercises by themselves without continuing with the class). What is your opinion and why? Please give specific details to support your opinion.

参考答案

If I had a boy who has been taking violin lessons for two years and then suddenly wants to quit, I would not force him to continue or simply say “ OK” to that either. I need to find out why first, maybe he is just a little bit frustrated with difficult techniques like vibrato, in this case, I would probably let him take a break for a month to cool off while looking for another teacher who can make it fun and easy for him. This is not only because it ’ s a shame to just throw away all the time and money that we have dedicated to this whole thing but also because If I just allow him to quit at this point of frustration, he may expect the same solution in other difficult situations later in life and grow up a  quitter without any skills.

参考范文

Both the reading and the listening discuss about the benefits of honeysuckle. The reading raises three arguments to support it, while the listening holds a totally different viewpoint.

First, as the reading suggests, honeysuckle helps other plants pass seeds. However, the listening points out that animals will also pass on the seeds of plants. And this plant grows very fast and will block the sunlight of other plants and make them unable to survive.

Second, the reading mentions that honeysuckle limits wildfire to spread. The listening, on the other hand, argues that nutrients such as nitrogen will be better absorbed by plants after wildfire, and no wildfire is not conducive to their absorption and growth.

Third, according to the reading passage, honeysuckle can provide energy when birds migrate. On the contrary, the speaker in the lecture thinks that honeysuckle provides little energy for birds, and they will choose another plant with more energy.

参考范文：

Modern society has turned humans into curious creatures. Our ancestors were highly active thanks to their hunter-gatherer lifestyle; they ate fairly balanced diets due to the limited availability of fats and simple carbohydrates; and they relied on stress as a survival mechanism that kept them alert during intermittent periods of danger. Now, many of us spend upwards of 8 hours a day sedentary at our jobs; we eat unbalance diets of pre-prepared foods in order to save time; and we are constantly stressed due to a never-ending bombardment of stressors coming from our contemporary lifestyle. Managing all three things--diet, exercise, and stress--would be a daunting task for anyone, so if I had to pick one thing to improve my health, it would probably be exercise.

To begin with, exercise is much easier to manage than both your diet and your stress. In order to manage your diet effectively, need to reduce or eliminate certain foods you enjoy eating, as well as create a comprehensive plan that balances your intake of different nutrients like proteins, fats, and carbohydrates. This is too much for most people, which explains the prevalence of "fad diets" that involve, for example, only eating a single type of food; these diets rarely ever work, and can even be dangerous. Managing stress is similarly difficult, because there are so many potential stressors to account for (work, kids, bills, etc.) and it may not be plausible to try and manage all of them. Exercise, on the other hand, can be effective even when simple. Take running: This exercise requires no forethought and can be done pretty much everywhere by pretty much everyone, yet carries a laundry list of health benefits ranging from boosting the immune system to lower the risk of breast cancer.

In addition, and perhaps most importantly, exercise can lead to both better eating habits as well as lower overall stress. Exercise is in fact an excellent way to manage stress, and is recommended by medical authorities as a way to strengthen the brain's buffers against it. It is even recommended by doctors for treating depression. This stress reduction from exercise can in turn lead to better food choices, since stress is a major contributor to poor eating habits, and eating healthy is much easier when you're feeling good about yourself. Anyone who's reached for junk-food during a stressful situation can tell you that.

Obviously, diet, exercise, and stress management are all important for living a healthy life. However, if you had to choose only one, I'd say that exercise wins out when it comes to getting the most bang for your buck.
