专项测试答案作文Campus Activities There is variety of colorful activities on the campuses of universities and colleges. These activities can both be academic and recreational. For example, speech contests, English contests, sports clubs, singing and dancing groups are very popular among college students These campus activities can help students in the following aspects. First of all, they can broaden students knowledge and make their life both colorful and meaningful. Besides, the variety of activities provides opportunities for students to relax and communicate with others. They can enjoy themselves and at the same time make a lot of friends. In addition，these activities open. the door for students to leave their classroom and get to know the society. This will make them more competitive when they leave school. From what have been mentioned above, I believe the campus activities can offer important and efficient ways for students to broaden their horizons and gain some experiences. But some kind of right guidance is also necessary to help these activities to continue to grow and flourish.NEET Group PhenomenonNowadays, there are a considerable number of young people joining the NEET group. They have already been able to support themselves, but still rely on their parents to make a living.Why is there such a phenomenon? Maybe the reasons can be listed as follows. First, those young people are mostly the only child of the family, and they are spoiled by their parents, lacking the spirit of independence. Secondly, the education they have received aims at helping them pass the examinations rather than giving them professional trainings, so they cannot find their advantages in the bitter competition of the job market.As far as I am concerned, the phenomenon of NEET group is a sign of social resource waste, and has to be removed with joint efforts. If the young people learn to respect their parents and attain more self-supporting skills, Lf the governments do more in creating new job opportunities and providing job-hunting instructions, the phenomenon of NEET group will one day disappear in China.My View on Cyber language囧、.MM、lol. Are these words and symbols familiar to you? If not, I am afraid you are out! Nowadays, the Internet is flooded with such cyber language, which has aroused great public concern.Cyber language is especially popular among students. They think it is fashionable and convenient to use cyber language to communicate. However, the popularity of cyber Language has aroused widespread concern among experts and teachers. They worry that cyber language would bring negative impart on the use of Chinese. Besides, some parents also complain that it is difficult for them to understand their children when they use cyber language in real life.My use of cyber language is limited to the cyberspace. I dont think it can affect. my use of Chinese. I think we should take an open mind to cyber language. But it should be noted that such mind is based on the respect for language.Graduate Talent Village OfficialsNowadays the grim employment situation is getting worse as more and more college students graduate each year in China. In order to cope with this issue, the central government has called upon college graduates to work as village officials in rural areas.It is no doubt that the policy has very active influences on both graduate talents themselves and society. First, as a whole, this policy can alleviate the employment pressure m society. Its well recognized that the policy came as a result of employment embarrassment. Therefore, if some job hunters flow to rural areas, then the rest could have more opportunities and less competition. Second, it is quite beneficial for rural development. Graduate talents are a special group of people with rich knowledge, vigorous body and enterprising spirit. Given a proper position and opportunities, they can make the best use of all their advantages and fulfill various tasks very easily. Based on that, rural areas could achieve a sustainable and sound development. Third, this program also gives college students precious work experience in grassroots institutions. It is very important and even prerequisite for a political applicant to first work in a grassroots government. In conclusion think this policy can not only make use of college students advantages and improve their ability to work in villages, but also promote a rapid rural development and give villagers more opportunities to be well off. Whats more, it can heal the urban and rural wealth disparity and make the society more harmonious.College Students Career DesignNowadays. under increasing pressure to seek a satisfying job after graduation, more and more college students have come to realize the importance of career design. An early and proper career design or planning will help them to know what courses to pursue, what extracurricular activities to attend, and what kind of companies to apply to for their internship, etc. In a word, students with career planning stay more focused on what abilities they want to cultivate for the preparation for their future jobs, whereas those without any career planning may find themselves without a sense of direction, and their college life boring and meaningless.Knowing the importance of career planning is only the first step. More important for college students is to know how to plan our careers. In my view, there are three essential rules to follow. Firstly, knowing what we most like to do in our daily life, or the calling in our heart, may give us a clue as Lo what job we might enjoy doing in the future. Next, knowing what kind of things we can usually do best is also instrumental in helping us define what jobs might suit us. Of course, turning to career coaches for help may also be an alternative. Finally, once we have identified our ideal career choice, what is left to us in college is to do everything we can to achieve that goal or destination, to be the best student in our studies.快速阅读（一）1-7 ABDDCBA 8.participant sports in America; 9.a lot of expenses; 10.who are not interested in a sport of some kind（二）1-7 CDADDDB 8.intellectual curiosity 9.the same approach 10.their parents contribution（三）1-7 BCDCBAB 8、state-funded independent 9、teaching and learning 10、download of educational content（四）1-7 DBCABCA 8、knock-on effect for the wider economy 9、face a better economic outlook 10、long-term unemployed young people（五）1-7ACBCDDC 8.suggestion therapy 9.they are fascinated by it 10.accept the medical use of psychology听力（一）11-18 BBBDBADB 19-25 ADBCBCC 26-35CBCDABDABC36. rides 37. theme 38. officials 39. eleventh 40. characters 41. measure 42. representing 43. opening44.

Emergency services, the fire department, he police, hospitals and ambulances stood by, ready to go into action. In railway and underground stations, people read notices and maps which told them where to go and what to do in the emergency. This was Exercise Floodcall, to prepare people for a flood emergency. London wasnt flooded yet. But it is possible that it would be. In 1236 and in 1663, London was badly flooded. In 1928, people living in Westminster, the heart of London, drowned in floods. And in 1953,100 people, living on the eastern edge of the London suburbs, were killed again in the floods. At last, greater London Council took action to prevent this disaster from happening again. Though a flood wall was built in the 1980s, Londoners still must be prepared for the possible disaster. If it happens, 50 underground stations will be under water. Electricity, gas, and phone services will be out of action. Roads will be drowned. It will be impossible to cross any of the bridges between north and south London. Imagine! London will look like the famous Italian city: Venice. But this Exercise Floodcall didnt cause panic among Londoners. Most people knew it was just a warning. One lady said, Its a flood warning, isnt it? The water doesnt look high to me. Questions 26 to 28 are based on the passage you have just heard.26. What happened in London a few months ago?27. What measure was taken against floods in London in 1980s?28. What can we learn from the ladys comment?Passage Two American visitors to Eastern Asia are often surprised and puzzled by how Asian cultures and customs differ from those in the United States. Whats considered typical or proper social conduct in one country may be regarded as odd, improper or even rude in the other. For example, people from some Eastern Asian countries may begin a conversation with a stranger by asking personal questions about family, home or work. Such questions are thought to be friendly, whereas they might be considered offensive in the United States. On the other hand, people in most Asian cultures are far more guarded about expressing their feelings publicly than most Americans are. Openly displaying annoyance or anger, yelling, arguing loudly and so forth is considered ill-mannered in countries such as Japan. Many Eastern Asians prefer to hold their emotions in check and instead express themselves with great politeness. They try not to be blunt and avoid making direct criticisms. In fact, they often keep their differences of opinion to themselves and merely smile and remain silent rather than engage in a confrontation. By comparison, Americans are often frank about displaying both positive and negative emotions on the street and in other public places. Americans visiting Asia should keep in mind that such behavior may cause offense. A major difference between American culture and most Eastern Asian cultures is that in Eastern Asia, the community is more important than the individual. Most Americans are considered a success when they make a name for themselves.Questions 29 to 31 are based on the passage you have just heard.29. How would some Asians start their conversation when they meet for the first time?30. What would a Japanese do when he feels annoyed?31. What is encouraged in American culture according to the passage?Passage Three If the earth gets hotter in the new century, what will happen to animals and the plants which animals depend on for survival ? The question offers another way of looking at the greenhouse effect. People have talked about the general problem of global warming for some time. But they were usually worried about things like whether to buy a home on the coast. Biologists and other scientists turned their attention to plants and animals at an important meeting that took place last October. They reviewed evidence that plants and animals are sensitive to climate. Since the Ice Age ended 2,000 years ago, and warmer temperatures returned to the northern latitudes, many species have migrated north. If the predictions about the greenhouse effect are correct, temperatures will rise by the same amount in the next 100 years as they did in the past 10,000. Will animals and plants be able to adapt that quickly to change in the environment? Many wont. Certain species will probably become very rare. Experts say plants under climate stress will be very open to disease and fire. Forest fires may become more common. That in turn may harm animals that depend on the trees for food or shelter. Any preserves we set up to protect the endangered species may become useless as the species are forced to migrate along with their natural homes. Changes are part of life, but rapid change says scientist George Woodwill, is the enemy of life.Questions 32 to 35 are based on the passage you have just heard.32. What is the concern of ordinary people about the greenhouse effect?33. What has happened since the end of Ice Age?34. What will be a possible threat to plants in the future?35. According to the passage, what will probably happen to the endangered species?Section C The weather was hot. But the heat did not prevent thousands of people from visiting the new Hong Kong Disneyland. They came to try the rides, the shows and all the other things to do at the newest theme park of the Walt Dis
