You should write at least 150 words but no more than 200 words.1. 大学生活的重要性2. 人们选择不同的方式度过了大学生活3. 在我看来答案：How to Spend a Meaningful University LifeMy dear friends,  Thanks very much for attending the speech. At first, I want to say "welcome to our university". And I really feel honored to be here giving you some guidance on how to spend a meaningful university life. Hopefully, it will help.  As is known to all, university provides you with abundant knowledge in specific fields, shapes enquiring minds and establishes solid foundations for your future development. Even though some students may be surely aware of this, they also lose themselves sometimes. Some may fail in several exams and will not graduate from university on time; some may find a steady job upon graduation, only to be frustrated in life. So, how to live a meaningful university life?  First, you should set up a clear goal, both professionally and personally, to give you a clear picture of the priorities in your university life. Then, take actions. If you want to pursue further studies, pay special attention to all the subjects in your major. And if you just want a job, do research on the qualifications needed for that particular job. What's more, do make several good friends and take part in activities and physical exercises with them. Meanwhile, talking with parents, friends, teachers and even consulting professionals will be helpful to some confusions, frustrations as well as misunderstandings you have at universities.   By setting up goals and striving for them, I wish every one of you a happy and meaningful life here. Again, thanks for your coming!解析：此作文是演讲稿，属于应用文写作。并且题目中已经给出提纲，考生需要按照演讲稿的格式写出开篇和结束语，并按照提纲写出大学生活的重要性，如何定义故意义的大学生活以及我的建议。本文语言规范、地道，结构清楚。作者一方面问候听众，指出本次演讲的重要性；在主体部分作者指出大学生活在为学生提供专业知识，培养思维以及建立友谊等方面的重要性；并指出某些学生的大学生活并不尽人意。最后提出自己的建议，在职业和个人规划层面上都要一方面明确目的，并为之奋斗；建立友谊，积极参与活动，并及时从父母朋友老师和专业人士那里得到帮助来解决自己碰到的困惑。Part II Listening ComprehensionSection ADirections： In this section, you will hear 8 short conversations and 2 long conversations.

C)  Positive.D)  Sympathetic.答案：B解析：本地犯罪率减少的因素是警察用了高科技武器（high technology weapons），男士觉得这个消息是很安慰人的。可女士的意见则是，警察应当用他们的智慧（wits）而非武器来制服罪犯。因此，女士对于此则消息的态度是悲观的（negative）。所以选B。3. 听力文本资源W: How was your party last night? I've heard you had a wonderful time.M: Well, the first half was good. But a neighbor came around half way through the party to complain about the noise we made.

B)  It was a successful one.C)  It lasted for a whole day.D)  A neighbor was invited to the party.答案：A解析：由于男士的派对有些吵，所以，他的邻居半途来抱怨派对的噪音，因此他们不得不提前结束了（call it a day）。所以选A。4. 听力文本资源W: Helen told me that Doris failed in the chemistry final exams.

D)  Cry over her chemistry exams.答案：C解析：音频中女士说Doris化学考试没及格，所以想去安慰一下她。男士告诉女士，Doris伤心时，比较喜欢自己一个人呆着（isolate herself from others），因此，此刻，Doris很有也许是自己一个人呆着。所以选C。5. 听力文本资源M: We will go camping this weekends as the weather forecast said the weather would be fine.

C)  Go camping with her friends.D)  Discuss with some students about the composition.答案：B解析：音频中，男士邀请女士去露营，但女士手头有些工作要做，所以去不了。她要忙着整理一些范文（work up some sample compositions），由于系领导要她周一将这些文章发给同学们。此题考察对于短语work up的理解，此语境中，work up 应理解为“逐步完善（文章，项目等）”。所以选B。6. 听力文本资源W: I have faith in our school basketball team. They will become the champion in the school league.M: Don't be silly. Didn't you hear the rumor that our school team is one of the most vulnerable ones in the league?What does the man mean about their school basketball team ?听力文本资源A)  The team has a lot of supporters regardless of gender.B)  They played so well that all the students are the fans of them.C)  Their school basketball team is easily to be defeated. D)  There is a rumor saying that they will be the champion of the school league.答案：C解析：此题考察词汇vulnerable。从男士的话里可知，女士说的“我们学校篮球队会成为篮球联赛的冠军”这话,是如此愚蠢。他听到的是，他们学校的篮球队是联赛里面最弱的（vulnerable）球队之一。换而言之，他们的篮球队很容易被击败。所以选C。7. 听力文本资源W: Do you want to be my travel companion for the summer trip to Europe?M: Eh, I have been to many countries in Europe.

It seems that the economic problems we are all facing are mainly to blame.W: What do you mean by that? I guess it's the high prices of things like food and petrol that's worrying people?M: Well not just that. It's stress in the workplace that is the biggest issue. Some reports said that the stress becomes the number one cause of long-term workplace absence. Half of the UK's public sector companies have reported a rise in employee absence caused by stress.W: That's interesting because jobs in the public sector are traditionally seen as more stable and secure than those in the private sector.M: Yes it's surprising. Public sector jobs, such as civil servants and teachers, were seen as jobs-for-life but perhaps that's not the case anymore. It's a worrying time.W: So how exactly is the poor economic situation affecting the workplace?M: Things like cutting the number of staff, which lead to increased workloads for others, and the security of the job, cause the increase in mental health problems.W: So what can be done to reduce this stressful situation?M: Well some companies are offering counseling services.

Do you want to join us seeing the stars in my apartment tomorrow night?M: What kind of a view of the stars do you get from your house?W: Well, it's actually not too bad on a clear night.M: I don't often see the stars where I live, but perhaps this is because I live closer to the centre of London than you. So there's probably less light pollution where you live.W: Well it is true that the best places to see stars are the darkest places on the planet, like deserts and mountain tops and that's where you see those pictures of powerful telescopes.M: Yes, in certain locations around the world you can get a really clear view of thousands of twinkling stars, some planets and sometimes the odd satellite moving across the sky.W: It seems that you are an expert in Astronomy.M: If you really want to view stars in a better place, I suggest we go to the Dark Sky Reserve.W: Dark Sky Reserve?M: Yes, it is one of the UK's darkest spots. There will be strict controls on things like street lights to reduce light pollution and keep the night truly dark. When it's dark we can see as many as 2,500 stars whereas in a city we might be lucky to see 200.W: That sounds wonderful. I will inform my friends about this, and can we meet at the gate of our school at 8 so that you can take us there?M: No problem.听力文本资源12. 听力文本资源 What kind of a view of the stars can the woman see from her apartment? 听力文本资源A)  She could see some stars if the weather is good that night.
