问答题Title: 骆驼为什么耐旱 大致内容 讲骆驼为什么耐旱。可以1）喝好多水，普通动物在短时间内喝那么多水，血管里的红细胞会破裂，骆驼不会。2）可以失很多水（有题）。说骆驼失水20%-25%也不会死，人失水12%就不行了。3）可以保持体内水分，第一是因为面积/体积这个比例小，另一个是因为fat隔热，而且它还会随着太阳调整方向，减少受到照射的面积。4）驼峰到底是不是储存水的。答案：不是，是存脂肪的，虽然脂肪在分解过程中也会产生水，但是这个水还没有分解过程本身需要的水多，所以驼峰是不能提供水的。

问答题独立写作： 　　Do you agree or disagree with the following statement? Though modern agricultural practices damage the environment, feeding the world's growing population is more important than protecting against environmental damage. 　　It is often said that the world population grows following a geometric progression (2, 4, 8, 16, 32...) but food production grows following an arithmetic production (1, 2, 3, 4, 5...). If this were true, then one would expect the world's food demands to quickly outpace its ability to meet those demands. This does appear to be the case, at least on the surface—more than half of the world population perishes each year from malnutrition. But is this a food production problem, and should food production thus be pursued with reckless disregard for the environment? I do not believe so. 　　The problem of world hunger is not a problem of food production, but rather, one of food distribution and poverty. In many of the developing countries where scores die every year of malnutrition, there are actually sizable surpluses of food; the real issue is that those who need it the most cannot afford to buy it, and so the supplies are sold to more wealthy nations that cannot meet their own agricultural needs through domestic production. For many decades now, there has been enough food in the world to feed the entire world population—it is just a matter of getting it into the right hands. 　　Thus, engaging in harmful agricultural practices for the sake of higher food production would actually be counter-productive in the long run. First of all, it would do nothing to solve the current socio-economic and political inequality that leads to such huge disparities in food allocation. Second of all, it would probably harm those that we were trying to help. This is because most of the harmful practices would likely be implemented in disadvantaged countries, seeing as wealthy countries would have little room left for further agricultural growth. Unsustainable agricultural land development, aggressive use of fertilizers—these measures, while perhaps supplying food in the short term, would ultimately deplete the natural environment and handicap a country's growth in the future, landing them back where they started. 　　Granted, the long view will provide little consolation to those who are desperately in need of food now. Some argue that it is better to make environmental sacrifices in order to start saving lives today, and to just deal with serious environmental problems down the line as they arise. While I believe there is some merit to this, I do not think that should be the first option we turn to—wouldn't it make much more sense to just tackle the poverty and distribution problem directly, alleviating hunger through more considered means, and avoid the potential environmental pitfalls entirely? 　　The situation presents difficult ethical quandary—do we choose to let people suffer now, so that more may avoid pain later? Or do we help them now, and hope that we do not dig everybody into an even bigger hole down the line? Ultimately it will be a trying decision, but what is clear is that something must be done; though neither choice is without its drawbacks, they are both preferable to inaction.

问答题Integrated Writing Directions For this task, you will first have three minutes to read a passage about an academic topic. You may take notes on the passage if you wish. The passage will then be removed and you will listen to a lecture about the same topic. While you listen, you may also take notes. Then you will have 20 minutes to write a response to a question that asks you about the relationship between the lecture you heard and the reading passage. Try to answer the question as completely as possible using information from the reading passage and the lecture. The question does not ask you to express your personal opinion. You will be able to see the reading passage again when it is time for you to write. You may use your notes to help you answer the question. Typically, an effective response will be 150 to 225 words long. Your response will be judged on the quality of your writing and on the completeness and accuracy of the content. If you finish your response before time is up, you may Clink on Next to go on to the second writing task. Now you will see the reading passage for three minutes. Remember it will be available to you again when you write immediately after the reading time ends. The lecture will begin, so keep your headset on until the lecture is over. An examination reflects how well you have understood the material of a particular course. This is the obvious purpose of exams. There are many other advantages of examination. People use an exam as an incentive to study regularly and as a reason to review. Most students admit that they study harder when an exam has been announced. They should, of course, be reviewing the material, not learning it for the first time. We also can use the results of an exam as a measure of how much students understand and where they need extra effort. This means that students have to look over their exam when it is returned, analyze their mistakes, and check with the teacher or text. Don't look at only the grade, jump with joy or groan with despair, then throw the paper away. Teachers use the results of an exam to help them determine students' final grades. They may have some idea of how much they think students have learned, but to be as fair as possible, they test their belief by testing students. If you have regularly done satisfactory work in class, you should do the same on exams. If you have done poor work, you have the chance to prove that you can do better. Students can prepare much better for exams if they recognize the exam's positive value. Also, until some other way of judging a student's progress has been found, exams will be an unavoidable part of the educational system. Now listen to part of a lecture on the topic you just read about. Question: Summarize the points made in the lecture you just heard, Explain the distinction between the points in the lecture and the points in the reading passage.

问答题Egocentric In psychology, the term "egocentric" is used to describe individuals who are either unable or unwilling to consider any need, opinion, or point of view of others except their own. One might characterize the egocentric individual as a pathological example of self-centeredness. In the field of psychology, researchers have found that children pass through an egocentric phase, usually from about age two till around six. During this time, besides the above traits, the children usually show an inability to imagine any viewpoint except their own even in cases of physical perception. Question: Using the information from the lecture, explain how the professor's example helps illustrate the concept of egocentric in the reading passage. Now hear a talk on the same subject.

问答题【讲课要点】：low price对于demands of product的positive and negative effects。 1. 可以raise demand。以soft drink为例，如果市场上的soft drink原本都是一个价，有一个公司降价了，那人们就倾向于买这个公司的产品，从而需求增加了。 2. 但是low price也可能减少demand。对于high-tech产品，比如电脑，如果价格较低，人们就会觉得质量有问题，所以不愿意购买，需求减少。

问答题Insight learning Insight learning is often treated as a mode of learning distinct from either trial-and- error problem solving or applying theory to specific cases. It is sometimes described as an "epiphany", a "eureka experience." Three factors are typical of insight learning: a series of problem-solving attempts has ended in failure; existing theory offers no new avenues for a solution, which means an impasse has been reached; a novel solution to the problem suddenly emerges. Often the solution has immense theoretical importance, amounting to what T.S. Kuhn calls "scientific revolutions." Question: Using the information from the lecture, explain how the experiment of a chimpanzee reaching its food relates to insight learning as discussed in the reading passage. Now hear a talk on the same subject.
