  考生1回忆:

  北美的:

  和力在不起了,不能大家,不了。口和作文是得的。不,同志多多考其他人的吧。

  口:

  1。你以下哪最困,最辛苦:1。(忘了),2。(忘了),3。Police Officer. 性差,莫怪。。。

  2。生不去什麽科、、史等的museum?

  3。Reading: changes in career service. Listening: woman thinks it's great. Reasons: 1. One day, she went the office(forget the name...), the adviser was really helpful. Told her what to put in her resume and how to do the cover letter. 2. Changes will benefit the students in the program a lot. Last year, her sister had an internship. Because she was such a good writer (or, something? I forget), she was offered the job position after the graduation.

  4. Reading: availability error. People experienced an event which made great impression on them. Although there is evidence that it won't happen, people still believe it'll happen again.

  Listening: The prof. talks about his own experience. Years ago, he and his wife went for a trip in an island. Unluckily, it rained all day, so they had no chance to explore the beach. Since then, whenever they plan to travel, her wife never wants to go to the island again, even though the prof. has checked that it doesn't rain that so often.

  5. Listening: The man has a problem. This year is his calculus prof.'s first teaching. He isn't used to his way of explaining... The prof. teaches too fast, he gets confused. Two solutions: 1. He says he can switch to another calculus section, but has to take it in the evening when he wants to do homework or hang out with friends. 2. He also says he can organize a study group to discuss what they learnt after class. But it'll cost extra time.

  6. Lecture: The topic is the two benefits of (忘了)。的是,哺乳物哺育後代行,就是母可能小崽子一。好:1. safety benefit. Take deer for example. Deer hide their young in the high grass and only check the nest once a day, because they check the nest too often, it'll be easily found by the predators. 2. The second benefit is that the young don't need to be fed too often(是我得的,感不太像好。。。). For example, the milk of the rat is rich in nutrients. The young just need to have a little and that's enough... (在感到越越奇怪,同志再去考下人的吧。。。)

  作文:

  1。Reading: Many birds died at the night of New Year's Day in the town. It might be related to the fireworks. 3 reasons: 1. (好像是,不清了)Birds died at the same time when the fireworks were set off. People found that birds fell down... blabla... 2. Birds weren't poisoned or (forget a 2nd reason), but people found injuries. So they must be injured by the impact the fireworks. 3. Most of the birds are red-winged blackbirds. They have weak night vision and seldom fly at night. Only when something unusual happened, like the firework, they fly at night.

  Lecture: Disagree. 3 reasons: 1. There are actually two places where we find dead birds. One is in the town, and the other outside town, where there weren't fireworks. So fireworks couldn't be the reason for either case. 2. The birds were indeed injured, but there are other possible reasons, for example, they were pushed by the weird air pressure down to the ground. 3. In fact, red-winged blackbirds are the most common birds in this area, so it's natural that they were the most common victims.

  2。When you are assigned an important presentation for work or school, you prefer to work on it right away so that you can work on it a little bit every day, or wait until you have a good idea about the presentation?

  考生2回忆:

  Section 1.Reading

  第一篇

  给了一张图片,是白令海峡区域,北美大陆与亚洲大陆接壤的地方,上方是Arctic Ocean,说的是白令海峡那个位置B开头的那一片区域在原来的自然地貌特征是有草地的(不然就是苔原气候,学过地理的应该懂,就是草甸什么的,也不算是灌木),文中出现了数次ice age时期(不过ice age有那么多个,交替出现,我记不到它有没有指名是哪一期的ice age),不过可以确认有一个偏后的段落不然就是题目出现明确的在the latest ice age时间的一个神马情况,好像是文章中出现的第二个学者的理论中的一部分(在文中最后两段).

  回到正确的叙述顺序(不好意思请见谅我有点混乱的逻辑顺序)

  第一段说了这个地方原来是怎么怎么样的啊,有证据可以表明啊,什么草啊之类的。

  第二还是三段问了开头为什么要写这句话的功能题,答案要往前面一段的最后一话找,是个疑问句,what is the historical还是什么之类的?反正意思是这个地方以前到底是什么样?在这个疑问句之前说科学家在神马问题上有分歧,这里有题,不过忘记了,实在是不好意。

  然后介绍了两个人一个名字带C另一个不记得暂且用2号学者代替。这两个人的观点(或者是hypo)是不一样的.先说第一个人,他有三个证据来体现B地的自然地貌和物种组成,第一个忘记,第二个是cat-teeth animal(貌似是以F开头的5或6个letter以na结尾的动物),这里有题问为什么要提及这个动物?接下来第三个证据是wind有关,只有风大才可以吹走snow cover,which cannot be able to 搞定by 那个动物。我个人把刚刚那个cat-teeth题目的一个带wind的选项排除了,因为貌似没关系,我不记得那时候是怎么选的,我就是排除了.然后blahblah了好多,有什么这动物那动物的。

  接着2号学者出现了,他认为不是这样的,因为也貌似有2-3个证据。中间位置出现了题目,问和C怎么不一样还是怎么的,反正就是contra了一下。

  最后一段是complication,说的是现在已经有结论了,说两个人的都对了一部分,它们的证据的确可以支持他们的理论,有题。

  第二篇

  讲的是venus,地球和mars的水问题。第一段总起说这三个都是N开头的物质来的,这里有题在偏后的位置其中一个选项就是这三个星球中(或者是全部)的水都是N演化成行星的时候来的。

  然后开始讲venus为什么没有水。首先说他原来有,是因为有很多volcano排出很多carbon oxide就形成了很厚的atmoshpere,帮助水形成,但是venus的直径或者是太小只有地球的几分之几貌似是只有一半,此处有题不然就是某题的选项,然后又离太阳近,后来因为interior 冷掉了,volcano都still了,still是词汇题,我选的忘记了但是意思就是死火山,挂掉了,就没有CO2 了也就没有大气层了,水就vapor掉了,逃逸到space里面,最后有根本没有了,此处有题,某个选项是说venus上hydrogen没有,连大气层的好薄之类的(我记不到是薄还是什么特点了,我只记得有个planet的大气层90%都是CO2,估计是火星,所以我写到后面去哈)

  接着说地球,这个我个人觉得没什么好说的,无非就是离日距离适中,大气层合适,原来火山活动频繁,和venus一样形成了保护水形成的圈圈,然后为神马现在我们还有水就是因为我们火山到现在都还活动,interior还是热的,blahblah。

  然后说mars,我就记得此段最后一句话说polar有ice神马,这里有题目。

  第三篇

  讲fossil

  首先说最多保存的是hard的部分,比如说skeleton啊。一般都是脊椎动物,然后无脊椎动物也是可以有fossil的,因为她们也有硬的东西,比如说shell之类的

  然后提到了神马生物也可以由,因为它们的cell wall很rigor。

  接着还提到了一个什么形式的fossil连吃的最后一顿都可以保存下来,有题,有个选项说神马无空气密闭防水之类的。

  另起一段说科学家还可以用一种方法mold来复原被腐蚀掉了部分(我个人理解就是没有保存完好的fossil中间的空空用可凝固的液态物质浇灌注模)

  第四篇

  容我点时间,让我nap一下,restore今天考过的内容然后在回来补充哈

  Section 2.Listening

  1. conversation

  一女一男老师

  是讲这个女的要参加一个summer science program还是intern,说有具体requirement,想咨询,问了主旨题。那男的说我以为已经过了deadline了,而且没有什么requirement啊,这里有题目,答案就是老是搞错了时间。那女的说没有过,过了的是spring的,我要去summer的,summer有要求,说一定要有experience。然后男的就说是的是的,summer是要有。我忘记女的说有没有了,不过那女的是biology major,which is an advantage,有题目,貌似是4选2。说她晓得应该怎么plan之类的,那男的要她把这点mark出来,然后要她生物老师写recommendation(我忘了是她提的生物老师和她怎么样来着)。

  2.lecture: engineering

  就是说生物模型,仿生学robert

  说某个动物(rat吧,我忘了)有w(我猜是胡须)然后可以感测到物体的形状,这是robert设计的初衷,模拟w在base装了sensor,根据每个w的c(我记得貌似是曲度)来推算物体的shape,很accurate,可以构建有image。然后又说回去,说他们设计这个robert的时候还不知道w是怎么运作的,他们就是猜应该有sensor什么之类的。然后它们就会到rat身上做实验,什么是有sensor啊nerve传递信息啊。有个表格最后问四个特点哪个是rat有的,哪个是robert有的,哪个是都有的,四个特点分别是,有6个w,w的base是sensor,其他两个让我再想想。

  接着还设计了另一个功能,有题,问可以怎么样,四选二,一个是length一个是texture,是根据振动频率的不同来推测的。

  3.lecture: art history

  就是讲18-19世纪impressionism的画家。很多画家开始画画都是从copy开始,然后很多年之后才能形成自己的风格,这里给出了BM同学,话说此同学开始画画就是丛临摹开始,还跑到卢浮宫什么的去observe啊copy啊,然后C出现了,是个叼爆了的画家,愿意教BM同学画画。但是C不准别人observe,只是把画完了的给bm学习。(有一段说bm还去了什么impressionism集训之类的,就是一堆画家天天临摹,忘记是在c收她之前还是之后了)。然后bm开第一个画展了,但是有人就说太像c了,她就把画都撕了,这里有题,问她的早期作品咋了,我说没了,有个选项是lost,不要选,因为是她destroy掉的。然后继续勤学苦练为了摆脱c的影响,到死都没成功,尽管还是多少会有点自己的风格咯。然后说c太牛逼了,连著名画家P(这里不是毕加索)和莫奈都深受其影响,有题,问提P和莫奈干嘛.仔细听吧,我忘了。

  4.conversation

  这个貌似难些,我不记得了

  5. anthropology

  这是说在pacific coste area,北至阿拉斯加,贯穿加拿大,南至美国西海岸,有图。这里有一群人,以前以为他们是只hunting and gathering不farming的,因为pc area自然资源丰富,不需要种地,有鱼有vege有blah,他们吃,还trade,举了个salmon的例子,此处有考题,我忘了。但实际上这群人还是farming的,说有个叫做C的植物有rhizome(地下茎),不是native,其他真记不到了,也没有听了。还来了european,他们来的时候有题目。

  6.Botany

  说的是猪笼草,我不记得英文了,但是这玩意儿我学过,就是吃虫子的植物,有图啊,有两个部分标注了英文,都是P开头,要记住分别,长一点的p单词是猪笼草的头,lecture里面用的是upper ring这样的说法,短一点的p单词是猪笼草的那个小兜,装被逮住的虫子,然后在里面消化的,一般是有粘液,一个是促消化一个是为了trap住虫子,让它顺利滑进来又爬不出去。他吃虫子是因为他生存的soil里没有某种营养(我漏听了,不过正常推测是N,因为insect不就有蛋白质吗),此处有题目问为毛要提soil,原因是猪笼草缺东西。接着猜回到开头我blah了一堆的长p和短p的特征。这段lecture不只是介绍我刚刚说的,考点在于这段话里面state的difference,有些猪笼草的种其实长p短p不是这样的,短p有的没有粘液,他们不需要这个也能捕到虫子,然后科学家就做实验了。长p有的是wet的,从early night to early morning,科学家还做了分析,这里有考题。

  Section 3 Speaking

  Task 1. Among the following jobs: government leader, doctor, police officer, which is the hardest one?

  Task 2: 要不要参观科普艺术博物馆?

  Task 3: The announcement of change in career serive from the school newpaper. 2 changes: the first one is students are required to meet their career advisor at least once per semester. (because they can get more info 貌似是这个意思,我改动了一些); the second one is participating summer internship program,原因我忘记了.然后那个女的非常同意,原因一是好多同学不去,但实际上去了可以得到很多有用的信息,她就上个学期去了一个学期,她的advisor就帮助她整理resume和写cover letter.原因二是她姐姐就参加了去年program,然后毕业之后就从intern变成了full-time

  Task 4: 借鉴一下dragon.1397同学的吧,“Reading: availability error. People experienced an event which made great impression on them. Although there is evidence that it won't happen, people still believe it'll happen again.

  Listening: The prof. talks about his own experience. Years ago, he and his wife went for a trip in an island. Unluckily, it rained all day, so they had no chance to explore the beach. Since then, whenever they plan to travel, her wife never wants to go to the island again, even though the prof. has checked that it doesn't rain that so often.”

  reading中出现了once again之类的单词.lecture部分prof和他老婆去的那个island是第二天被bad storm侵袭了,所以就rain咯.prof每次想回去每次做好调查确保没问题的时候他老婆都不肯去说会要下雨.

  Task 5:借鉴dragon.1397同学.

  “Listening: The man has a problem. This year is his calculus prof.'s first teaching. He isn't used to his way of explaining... The prof. teaches too fast, he gets confused. Two solutions: 1. He says he can switch to another calculus section, but has to take it in the evening when he wants to do homework or hang out with friends. 2. He also says he can organize a study group to discuss what they learnt after class. But it'll cost extra time.”

  Task 6: (isolated/abandon反正就是这些意思说麻麻不管崽崽的)parenting way of mammals.说有的哺乳动物带崽崽时时刻刻在身边,但是有的就一天管一次,这样会更好.原因有2.the first one is aviod attracting predators' attention by lessen the time of checking their babies. for ex, like deer, they will hide their babies under grass.the second one is nutrition is enough from one meal per day. ex, rabbit.

  Section 4 Writing

  The cause of death of birds on the New Years night

  Reading: the Firework

  1. the time is coincident. (match). witness saw birds fell down when the firework start

  2. no other evidence shows poisoned or disease. should be impact.

  3. red-winged blackbird has bad eye sight.在firework受惊之后乱飞,会自己撞自己

  Lecture: refute the reading

  1. out of town也死了一大批鸟,它们又没被firework爆,它们为毛也挂了,你不能乱赖firework啊

  2.可能是wind或者air pressure 把他们刮到地上的,有人目击了鸟儿们摔死在地上

  3.视力差不是原因,blackbird死得多是因为它们在这片地方的鸟中最多多占比重大,他们就算遭其他的灭顶之灾,死的最多的也肯定是他们。
