1、Unitl：l.What subject do you like best?What made you like it:your personal interests,the teacher;thepractical applications of the course in the future,etc.?I like physics best,though many classmates find it hard.A lot of factors led me to like this subject.As early as in high school,I was amazed at t

2、he laws scientists like Newton and Einstein discovered.What they found out changed the world.Luckily,my physics teacher at this university is excellent.He is knowledgeable and patient.Just because of him,Im willing to spend lots of myspare timeon this subject.Most importantly,what I have learned fro

3、m the physics course will be of greathelp in landing a good job.Nowadays many companies think physics majors often have a solidacademic foundation and can easily adapt themselves to a wide variety of positions.2.Do you think it is necessary?Some parents believe that by doing a lot of difficult math

4、problems,their children will have asolid foundation in math.Some parents even believe that trying to solve hard math problems willpromote the growth of childrens brains and help develop their logical reasoning ability andconcentration,which will facilitate learning in other areas.On the other hand,m

5、any peoplebelieve that it is unnecessary and unnatural for children to study difficult math problems.Somepeople even believe that strict math training harms childrens moral and physical development.Fierce competition may dampen the spirit of teamwork,which is so important in thecontemporary world.3.

6、What study habits seem to be common among successful students?Many top students seem to have these good study habits:They tend to have a strong sense oftime and organize their time well.They may draw up their study plan well in advance.Whilestudying,they check whether they are working ahead of sched

7、ule or lagging behind it.Theyusually work in a systematic way.Before class,they preview the text to get some idea about whatthe teacher is going to say and which part of the text is difficult.In class,they listen attentively,take notes of the main points of the lecture,and ask questions when they do

8、nt understand.After class,they review what they have learned.By going through the text and the notes,theycan remember important information.4.How to prevent students cheating in examinations?First,the administrators must adopt severe measures to punish that disgraceful practice.In thecase of serious

9、 offenders,it is not enough just to give them an F.They must repeat the whole year;or even be expelled from school.Second,it is more important for teachers to enforce theuniversity rules strictly.When they see students cheating,they should not turn a blind eye to it.Unit 2l.According to your experie

10、nce,what damages are being done to the environment?Given key words such as littering,pollution,and poisonous substances,people may find it easierto remember some of the dangers.LitteringSome people throw away paper;cigarette butts,empty cans or even batteries in public places orin scenic sites.Pollu

11、tionWhen households and factories dump sewerage and harmful substances into rivers and lakes,water pollution can be serious.Air pollution may worsen as the economy develops.If the smokefrom factory chimneys does not meet environmental standards,it pollutes the air.Also,theincreasing number of cars b

12、rings further deterioration to the quality of the air.The cigarettespeople smoke also contribute to the pollution.Poisonous SubstancesWhen we discard air-conditioners and refrigerators,we release poisonoussubstances like CFCs（氟氯化碳），which deplete the ozone layer（臭氧层）or create a hole in theozone layer

13、.When you use aerosol spray on your hair;you are spreadingenvironmentally-damaging freon（氟里昂）as well.2.Can you think of some measures to protect forests?I think the most important thing to do is to create a law to forbid the cutting of trees in certainareas.Even when timber is needed for constructio

14、n,logging should be well planned.In additionto the law,we also need law enforcement personnel who will fine those who fell trees illegally.Itis not enough to protect the existing forests.We must also plant trees to make new forests.Weshould also grow various types of trees to ensure bio-diversity.To

15、 make the afforestationprogram successful,the government should award those units and individuals that have madeoutstanding contributions.3.If a chemical plant has to dump a poisonous substance into the river;but its closing-downmeans that many workers will lose their jobs and the local economy will

16、 be affected,then whatwould you propose to do?In my opinion,the first step we can take is to introduce advanced ecological technology to makesure that the sewerage from the plant is properly treated before it is discharged into the river.Since some company managers are unwilling to spend money treat

17、ing pollutants,they may dumpnoxious substances during the night.So it is necessary to set up a watchdog team to supervisethe plants sewerage treatment.If the plant fails to meet the ecological standards,we have nochoice but to shut it down.After all,human life is more important than anything else.If

18、 theworkers lose their jobs because of the close-down,the government can give them subsidies andrun training programs so that they can find new jobs in other sectors of the economy.If the localeconomy is badly hit by the close-down,the central government can consider subsidizing thelocal government

19、for a certain period of time until the jobless workers are re-employed.4.Which types of energy should we use:wood,coal,petroleum,water power;nuclear energy orsolar energy?Give your reasons.In my opinion,we should try our best to avoid using wood and coal as fuel.The burning of woodcreates air pollut

20、ion.Moreover,trees cannot be reproduced easily.It takes dozens of years oreven hundreds of years for a young tree to grow into a big tree.Similarly,coal burning pollutesthe air.It would be even more difficult to reproduce coal.The formation of coal takes thousandsof years.Nowadays,people use petrole

21、um the most.Cars,ships,aircraft and many factoriesdepend on it.It causes less pollution than coal and wood,but it is also non-renewable.To leaveenough resources for future generations,we need sustainable development.We have to usethose fossil fuels less and turn to other types of energy such as wate

22、r power;nuclear energy andsolar energy.Unit 3l.Name some Western and Chinese festivals,and special days that seem to be especiallyimportant,and explain why they are important.There are a number of Western festivals,such as Christmas,Boxing Day,Thanksgiving Day,NewYears Day,New Years Eve,Halloween,Va

23、lentines Day,Mothers Day,and Fathers Day.There arealso a number of traditional festivals in China,such as the Spring Festival（or the Chinese NewYear),the Lantern Festival,the Pure Brightness Festival(or Qingming Festival or the Tomb-VisitingFestival),the Dragon Boat Festival,the Mid-Autumn Festival,

24、the Double-Ninth Festival(or theSeniors Day),etc.Some Western holidays such as Mothers Day,Fathers Day and Valentines Dayare also becoming popular in China.In the West,Christmas is obviously the most importantfestival since it involves a long holiday,and almost all the people celebrate it.In fact,it

25、 hasbecome quite popular in many non-Western countries.In China the Spring Festival is clearlythemost important traditional holiday,which lasts three days or more and most Chinese both athome and abroad celebrate it.2.Do you think it is necessary for the Chinese to celebrate Christmas?I think we Chi

26、nese should pay more attention to traditional Chinese festivals such as the SpringFestival,the Lantern Festival and the Mid-Autumn Festival.Observance of those traditionalholidays increases cohesion of the entire nation.If those traditional holidays should disappear,itwould be a loss to Chinese cult

27、ure and to world civilization as well.On the other hand,Christmasis a season for people to be jolly.It is also an occasion for people to express love and otherpleasant feelings.When family members get together for a huge dinner,they have a sense ofwarmth and closeness.When children receive gifts,the

28、y are excited,and their happiness isinfectious.As the world has become smaller through globalization,Christmas has become morepopular in many non-Western countries.3.Why is Valentines Day more popular in China now compared to it was decades ago?Since love is one of the most fundamental emotions,it c

29、ertainly deserves a holiday.In fact,love isan eternal theme in novels,dramas and poems.People need a holiday to express their emotions.When people exchange cards and gifts on Valentines Day,they express their affection for othersand feel happy.The holiday seems to be especially important to young me

30、n and women.Therefore,young Chinese people have good reason to celebrate Valentines Day.As China isgradually integrating with the rest of the world,why cant we celebrate Valentines Day?Unfortunately,the traditional Chinese Lovers Day,which falls on the seventh day of the seventhlunar month,is largel

31、y neglected now,despite the interesting story of the meeting between thelegendary Cowherd and Girl Weaver.Why hasnt the tradition been revived and made popularamong young people?4.It is sometimes claimed that many festivals have been created just to encourage people tospend money.Do you agree?It is

32、true that business people are seeking every opportunity to promote sales.So,for holidays,they try to sell cards,flowers and gifts.When people are happy preparing for a festival,they arewilling to spend money,and businessmen have taken advantage of their generosity.So,in a sense,many holidays have be

33、en commercialized,though we have the right not to buy.But on the otherhand,festivals endure mainly because they allow us to express our feelings.When Pilgrimswanted to express their gratitude to God for a good harvest,they created Thanksgiving Day.When people wanted to express their affection for th

34、eir mothers and lovers,they introducedMothers Day and Valentines Day.Ancient Chinese had great respect for the elderly,and thismight have given rise to the Double-Ninth Day.Unit4l.What do you think are the things that contribute to a successful marriage?The success of a marriage is due to many facto

35、rs,of which love is obviously the most importantone.Other factors,which are not entirely unrelated to love,include shared values and interests,mutual understanding,commitment,effective communication,similar educational background,equal economic status,physical fitness,etc.With the same values and mo

36、ral standards,friendsmay develop into lifelong partners.After marriage,there needs to be a commitment to oneanother,and to the well-being and development of the family.Similar educational backgroundand intelligence levels are also considered important by some people.They believe that only withmutual

37、 appreciation and understanding,can the couple get along easily and happily.2.Why do people get divorced?Can you guess some of the reasons?Sometimes it is because the couple did not really understand each other before the marriage,aslove was blind at that time.After marriage,they see each others sho

38、rtcomings more clearly.Whendisappointment grows beyond control,divorce becomes inevitable.Sometimes it isbecause one of the couple has changed after the marriage.For example,after the husband ispromoted to a leading position,he may have a hectic time all year round,with hardly any timeleft to be wit

39、h his wife.Sometimes one of the couple has lost his or her job and becomes irritable.Due to the continual quarrelling at home,the family breaks up.3.What do you think of the lives of single mothers?Most people look upon single mothers with sympathy.Single mothers have to support theirchildren on the

40、ir own.They may find it difficult to provide their children with all the luxurieschildren of two-parent families enjoy.Worse still,they may be under great psychological pressure.Moreover,their children may develop a sense of inferiority.When they see other children arebathed in the love of both pare

41、nts,they may feel bitterly disappointed.4.What is your view of the fact that the wifes housekeeping duties remain the same even whenshe works outside?What could be the solution?If the wife works during the day just like the husband,then it is obviously unfair for the wife toshoulder all the housekee

42、ping duties.If the husband can share the household chores with thewife,the love between them can be strengthened.Unfortunately,influenced by tradition,manymen are unwilling to do housework,thinking it to be unmanly.If we want to change the situation,the media had better give more publicity to model

43、husbands who assume a large part of thoseduties.Gradually,people may change their image of a husband who constantly sits in front of theTV,watching football games or international news.Also,the development of modern technologyand the appearance of more modern conveniences will further lighten the ho

46、appiness.Onthe other hand,some people may choose a well-paid job instead of a job close to their heart outof financial considerations.If one is in serious financial difficulty,one can hardly afford the luxuryof a dream job.Yes it is.Although many employers lay emphasis on candidates educational back

47、ground andwork experience,some believe that candidates character is equally important for a successfulcareer.For example,in contemporary society,many projects require the coordination of a groupof people rather than a single persons efforts.Therefore,a good team player is often welcome.The interview

48、er may ask you about your education to see if you have the basic knowledgerequired for the job you are applying for.Most of them will ask you about your work experiencein this field to see if you have the necessary skills for the job you have in mind.They may also askabout your character;weaknesses
