问答题 PROPOSAL TO LIMIT STUDENT COURSE LOAD The dean's office has proposed placing a limit on the number of credit hours for which students are allowed to register in a term.

The dean will speak about the proposal on Wednesday at 12:30 p.m. in Lecture Hall 2. Now cover the passage and listen to the recording. When you hear the question, begin preparing your response. The woman expresses her opinion about the proposal. State her opinion and explain the reasons she gives for holding that opinion.

问答题Policy on the Usage of Printing Paper The college computer lab has decided to charge students for printing fee when students print ten or more than ten copies at one time. Considering the limited paper resources and printing ink, proper charges can raise the students' awareness of saving paper. Also, the printer often breaks down after frequent usage and a new printer is badly needed. The printing fee can also cover part of the expenditure on the new printer, the paper and the ink. The fee will be 5 cents for every page and it is a reasonable price if not wasting any pages. Now hear a conversation about the same topic. The woman expresses her opinion towards the university's decision of charging printing fee, State her opinion and explain the reasons she gives for holding that opinion.

问答题K-T boundary。说这个是个什么的分界线，但是女生说这不是个岩石圈的名字吗？这个其实指的是个三层土。先讲恐龙灭绝可能是行星撞击产生的，然后讲了一个地方的土是分层的，最下面是铀，最上面是啥，中间有个clay层里面有化石。主要是不同意这个三层的土是撞击形成的。因为撞击就两层，最上面和最底下的那层。然后说有个人研究是撞击造成的，因为中间有个什么过程（好像是沉积），所以有了clay层。

问答题A Letter from a Student A letter written by a student proposes that the running trails around campus be paved over with cement. His suggestion is based on the following considerations: First, the current trails are made of sand and always get muddy after it rains. The runners slip very easily on the sandy trails. However, a cement trail would be skid-proof and much safer. Second, cement trails look nicer, and would attract more runners. Question: The man expresses his opinion towards the student letter.

问答题Customer Lock-In Lock-in is a practice whereby manufacturers and service providers attempt to force existing customers to use only their products. This is most commonly done by making goods incompatible with competitors' offerings. The practice has become especially prevalent in the computer and software industry. In effect, this creates a legal form of near-monopoly. A common advertising ruse here is to market the lock-in goods as "standard." The practice is harmful to consumers, because it drives up the price of repairs as lower-cost alternatives are not available. Question: Using information from the reading and the lecture, explain the way that most companies lock in their consumers by making goods incompatible with competitors' offerings. Now hear a talk on the same subject.
