Task 1
Research shows that people are supposed to sleep for at least 8 hours a
day, but as a matter of fact, some people sleep for only 6.5hours. What do
you think is the impact of sleeping to people's lives? Use specific
details and examples to explain your answer.
Task 2

time job in the evening, some people prefer to have a part-time job in the
daytime and take classes in the
evening. Which do you think is better? Use specific details and examples to
explain your answer.
Task 3 Reading:
The university should offer an online Math tutorial class. Because there
are only a few tutors on campus and the time is not flexible.
Listening:
The woman agrees with the proposal. She states that many students have to
take classes in the day and have a part-time job in the evening, and they
don ’ t have extra time to take the tutor ’ s class on campus. She also
mentions that many postgraduates would be like to work as a volunteer
tutor online. She furthers explains that they live in a place far away
from the university which cost them 15 minutes to drive, so they are
unwilling to take the tutor ’ s class on campus, she thinks the online
course would be much better.
Enclothed
Cognition:
A
systematic
influence
that clothes
have on
the wearer's psychological processes.
Listening:
An experiment was carried out to illustrate the concept of the terminology.
In the experiment, one group of participants wear a doctor’s coat; and the
other two groups of subjects not
only wear a doctor ’ s coat, but also
their identity is manipulated, they are physician identification group and
patient group respectively. There were no significant differences between
participants in the wearing-a-doctor’s-coat condition and participants in
the identifying-with-doctors condition in the duration and the degree of
attentional blink, while participants in these two conditions had shorter
duration and lower degree of attentional blink than participants in the
identifying-with-patients condition.
Task 5

has little time and she’s
not sure she is able to paint a better one, because she thinks the old one
is her best performance.

独立写作:
It's better to spend money on traveling and vacations thansave money for the
future.
综合写作:
美国打算通过一项法律用来限制进口和销售外来物种(nonnative species)
Reading:抵制外来物种入侵的法律不好
一些人需要把自己的宠物交给当局
1.需要花很多钱调查美国国内数以万记的外来物种
2.全国都用同一标准,是不公平的,还要考虑地区差异。比如巴西的兔子没有办法忍
受北方的寒冷,根本没有办法繁殖。
Listening:听力反驳
1.已经成为了宠物的外来物种不需要上交,比如你已经买了热带鱼,不用上交,但是
因为它对环境有威胁,以后就别买了。
2.解决外来物种造成的破坏花得钱更多。比如加利福尼亚的蟒蛇数量多到已经威胁其
他物种了,清理这些蛇的费用比调查的费用高多了。而且那些消失的物种所造成的环
境损失是无法估量的。
3.是公平的。比如巴西的兔子,就算在那么寒冷的情况下,还是传播了 M 病毒给当
地的动物,99%的当地动物都死了。

独立写作:
Agree or Disagree : playing sports teaches people the most important lessons
about life.
综合写作:
有个船叫 M 什么的,被发现 float 在海上,但是船长和十个船员都失踪了。
Reading:提出三个theory
1.pirate theory 海盗截了他们的船索要财物;
2.船上载有有毒物质,这些有毒物质 leak 导致他们乘坐 lifeboat 逃走了。后来
lifeboat 出事所以现在找不到了。
3.船渗水了,他们怕沉就乘 lifeboat 逃走了。
Listening:听力反驳
1.海盗抢劫只会把抢钱,会把人留下,贵重物品还留在船上,因此海盗理论是不合理的。
2.如果有液体泄漏会有很强烈的味道,船上的人肯定会 notice 并且不会靠近。虽然渗
水,但是船不一定会沉,而且发现船的时候它已经 float 了 few days 了。船长和
sailor 都是十分有经验的,完全可以让船 float 到附近的岛屿,不会弃船。

楼。

6月27日托福听力真题回忆:
Conversation1
一个学生找学校管理说我的 meal plan 太多,爸妈不懂买了超级多的导致现在还剩
了 70 多次没有用。能不能换个 meal plan,教授说好多人都这样,不能换。然后同
学说为什么大三大四的可以随意吃,老师说因为他们的由 club 提供,而且可以去校
外吃。而且他们不用
mandatory 的。但你没选有 club 的选项,最后学生说都要放假了剩下的 70 多可以
退款吗, 或者下学期用,可惜不行。教授的 solutions 是一直请客,并说可以找
dean 反映,学生说期末没时间了。
Conversation2
女生找教授说暑假要做实习,然后切入正题说为啥考试 essay 分低,她本来高中的
时候写作很好,但是教授说高中时候的方式到了大学就显得有点 low 了,然后跟学
生讲应该怎么写, 学生表示懂了,她应该把亲戚创业但是倒闭的例子加进去。
Lecture1
讲钻石特别是黑钻石。钻石很硬,有工业用途,而且很纯净都是透明的。学生说看过
有黄色棕色甚至黑的,然后就开始讲神秘起源。黑钻第一不是在钻石矿里发现的,是
在浅的地方小河床 creek bed,而且他们碳原子排列 oppose,所以表面 rough,主
要在巴西和中非发现。起源猜测是外来之客,与一种 pre solar diamond 比较,这
种是在比地球还早的时候形成,而且他们成分相似都是在含有大量氢元素的地方形成
(不是水)外星吧尽管黑钻石比较年轻。还有一种是一颗大陨石撞击产生,学生就不
开心了,明明两个大陆怎么可能一颗陨石?教授提醒别忘了之前南美和非洲连在一起
的。
Lecture2
Greek 硬币。之前先讲了一下硬币的定义 sculpture 贵金属,当钱用,政府发布,所以
有一种
coin 用了金银合金。然后罗马前期硬币上面图案 animal agriculture 等,且图没
有占整个面, 后面开始画人了,有 smile,但是太假了 unnatural 还会画人的
movement,还话神宙斯还是赫拉克勒思。一般帝王们不直接画自己,不让人觉得太过
于 proud,比如亚历山大大帝,在神中加入了自己的 feature,真让人觉得 humble
了。但后面的就直接画了 coin 价值在于知道当时的建筑的时间和外观,还可以由签
名知道知名艺术家。
Lecture3
鲸鱼的叫声。鲸鱼唱歌分为好几个 segments,不同的鲸鱼这个 segments DE 组成顺序
不同。鲸鱼学唱歌是 from their peers,和鸟不一样,鸟是 from parents。此外鲸
鱼的叫声有一个特点,就是别的动物交流的方式是随时间被慢慢变化的,但是鲸鱼的可
能会突然产生变化。此 外鲸鱼的语言是分地域性的,因为生活区域有局限,此外其叫
声传播范围小,1km 貌似。能对其他区域的鲸鱼产生影响的话,可能与
population size有关。
Lecture4
人类学
北美的 P 部落的例子。三个 clans,有一个是 host clan,两个 guest clan,举办
P 活动可以分享资源,通过它可以得到 prestige,讲了一个 host 可以 decide the
performance song 什么的,但后有一个 brother-in-law,有 marriage,但是不知道
是不是到底是与 host 游戏还是和brother-in-law 有关。
6月27日托福写作真题回忆:
综合写作
Reading:
Coral. Bay形成的原因是陨石爆炸meteorite impact theory
1.Asymmetrical depressions 沟壑不均匀是由于爆炸的裂缝导致材料填充不足,东
南部沙子多西北部沙子少;
2.陨石的爆炸产生的高温导致沙子没有铁外衣;
3.发现了 buckyball,是由于爆炸是产生的巨大压力导致的。
Listening:听力反驳
1.不均匀的原因可能是水流引起的,而且水流更好地解释了沙子不均匀的方向;
2.如果是高温的话更可能形成玻璃,但是并没有发现玻璃。而且沙子没有铁外衣也可能是
由于化学反应造成的;
3.如果是爆炸导致 buckyball,那么 buckyball 应该广泛存在于所有地带,但实际
上只有少数几个海湾发现了 buckyball。

a short time.

的选择。Listening:教授举例,一个人工作地点离家很远,有开车或者是骑自行车两
种选择。开车很贵,骑自行车很冷,这个人不知道要怎么选择。但是他旁边有个很
athletic的人选了自行车, 于是这个人也选了自行车。
Sample:

make choices to follow others' behaviors. The professor tells a story that
a man's working place is very far from his home. He has two ways to go to
work, driving a car or taking a bicycle. Driving is expensive and riding
