Passage 1
Questions 26 to 29 are based on the passage you have just heard.
Farming ton, Utah, is a more pleasant community since a local girls' 4-H club improved Main Street. Six 4-H girls worked to clean the 72 foot curbside that was covered with weeds, rocks and trash. Each member volunteered to clean up and to dig in plot, five flats of flowers. They also took terms in watering, weeding and maintaining the plot. Participation in this project helped the girls developed a new attitude towards their parents of their own homes; they've learned how to work with tools, and improve their work habits. One mother said that before her daughter was involved in this project, she would not even pour a weed. The experience on Main Street stimulated self-improvement, and encouraged members to take pride in their home grounds and the total community. City officials cooperated with the 4-H members in planting trees, building cooking facilities, pick-me tables, swings and public rest rooms. The 4-H girls planted trees and took care of them during the early stages of growth. The total park project needed more plantings in the following years. Members of the 4-H club agreed to follow the project through to completion, because they receive satisfaction from the results of constructive work. The project is a growing one and is spread from the park to the school and the shopping center. Trees and flowers have all been planted in the shopping center, making the atmosphere pleasant.

Thank you for coming, everyone. Today’s presentation will show how we see the development of the motor car in the short to medium term, and that is why we have invited all of you here today. Let’s start with power. It’s clear that petrol-driven engines have no future. Already there are many alternative fuel vehicles on the market, powered by anything from solar power to natural gas. Some independent thinkers have even produced cars that run on vegetable oil. But as we all know, of all these alternative fuel vehicles, the most practical are electric vehicles. Sure, in the past electric vehicles have their problems, namely, a limited driving range, and very few

作文(一)】
图画作文： 一屋不扫何以扫天下
We cansee clearly from the cartoon there is a father talking with her son. Havingheard his son’s words that “ Dad, I am a bit worried about disposing of nuclearweapon.” The father replies that “ If you can empty the dustbin here, you cando anything”.
The importance of doing small things
From the carton, we can clearly see that the boy is worried about disposing of nuclear waste, while his father tells him to empty the dustbin first. This carton reminds me of a Chinese saying: If you don't clean the room(solve your problems), then how can you control the world. However, most people always attach great importance to something big, but neglect small things.
In my opinion, it is necessary and important to do small things. On the one hand, doing small things well helps us to develop good habits, which set a good foundation for our future development. There is no doubt that one of the greatest differences between success and failure is the importance placed on little things. On the other hand, the big is the little. If something needs
to be done, it is big. No matter what kinds of task, if it is worth doing, it can be big.
Taking all these into account, we can easily notice that it is reasonable to do small things before big ones. So before doing important things, let’s empty our dustbin first!

图画作文：大学生在校从商,创业,好不好?是学业重要,还是社会经历重要?
For this part,you are allowed 30minutes to write a short essay.You should start your essay with a brief description of the picture and then express your views on the importance of learning basic skills.You should write at least 120 words but no more than 180 words.
The importance of learning basic skills
In the face of various and complicated requirements of employment market, some students begin to question the significance of learning basic knowledge and skills, just as what is exposed in the cartoon above.
However, it is absolutely wrong to hold that idea. Owing to the fact that we are living in a competitive society, the development of our society demands that we arm ourselves with basic skills and up-to-date knowledge so as to keep up with the pace of our society. An investigation shows that millions
of people spend time and energy grasping skills and technology so that they can keep a favorable position in job market or enhance their opportunities. While focusing on creativity, innovation, management and leadership skills, we should never forget the fundamental importance of the more basic, essential skills.
It is universally known that opportunity is important, but you could do nothing with it if you are not equipped with competitive forces, such basic reading and calculating skills, to seize it.

图画作文：The Importance of Reading Literature
The Importance of Reading Literature
Literature is acknowledged as the most precious product of human
civilization and wisdom, especially by our teachers. So they always ask their students to read as many as literary works. Just as the drawing shown above, a teacher gives a literary work to her student, saying: “Just think of it as if you’re reading a long text-message.”
It is of great significance for us to appreciate literature due to the following reasons. Firstly, a good literature can get you to know a life experience through the eyes of someone other than yourself. The more experience you gain, the more knowledgeable you are. Secondly, a good literature allows you to learn about history in a personalized way. The stories told in the works can act as mirrors and help you adjust your own behaviors. Lastly, a good literature is an effective way for relaxation. The beautiful and moving scenes shown in the literature are helpful for one’s mental health.
In short, literature is indispensable in our life. We, students, should catch our time to read more literatures.

Can Digital Textbook Truly Replace the Print Kind?
The shortcomings of traditional print edition textbooks are obvious: For starters they’re heavy,
with the average physics textbook weighing 3.6 pounds. They’re also expensive, especially when
you factor in the average college student’s limited budget, typically costing hundreds of dollars
every semester.
But the worst part is that print version of textbooks are constantly undergoing revisions.
Many professors require that their students use only the latest versions in the classroom,
essentially rendering older texts unusable. For students, it means they’re basically stuck with a
four pound paper-weight that they can’t sell back.
Which is why digital textbooks, if they live up to their promise, could help ease many of
these shortcomings. But till now, they’ve been something like a mirage（幻影）in the distance,
more like a hazy（模糊的）dream than an actual reality. Imagine the promise: Carrying all your
textbooks in a 1.3 pound iPad? It sounds almost too good to be true.
But there are a few pilot schools already making the transition（过渡）over to digital books.
Universities like Cornell and Brown have jumped onboard. And one medical program at the
University of California, Irvine, gave their entire class iPads with which to download textbooks
just last year.
But not all were eager to jump aboard.
“People were tired of using the iPad textbook besides using it for reading,” says Kalpit Shah,
who will be going into his second year at Irvine’s medical program this fall. “They weren’t using
it as a source of communication because they couldn’t read or write in it. So a third of the people
in my program were using the iPad in class to take notes, the other third were using laptops and
the last third were using paper and pencil.”
The reason it hasn’t caught on yet, he tells me, is that the functionality of e-edition textbooks
is incredibly limited, and some students just aren’t motivated to learn new study behavior.
But a new application called Inkling might change all that. The company just released an
updated version last week, and it’ll be utilized in over 50 undergraduate and graduate classrooms
this coming school year.
“Digital textbooks are not going to catch on,” says Inkling CEO Matt Maclnnis as he’s giving
me a demo（演示）over coffee. “What I mean by that is the current perspective of the digital
textbook is it’s an exact copy of the print book. There’s Course Smart, etc., these guys who take
any image of the page and put it on a screen. If that’s how we’re defining digital textbooks, there’s
no hope of that becoming a mainstream product.”
He calls Inkling a platform for publishers to build rich multimedia content from the ground
up, with a heavy emphasis on real-world functionality. The traditional textbook merely serves as a
skeleton.
At first glance Inkling is an impressive experience. After swiping（敲击）into the iPad app (应
用软件 ), which you can get for free here, he opens up a few different types of textbooks.
Up first is a chemistry book. The boot time is pretty fast, and he navigates through (浏览 ) a
few chapters before swiping into a fully rendered 3D molecule that can be spun around to view its
various building blocks. “Publishers give us all of the source media, artwork, videos,” he says,
“We help them think through how to actually build something for this platform.”
Next he pulls up a music composition textbook, complete with playable demos. It’s a learning
experience that attacks you from multiple sensory directions. It’s clear why this would be
something a music major would love.
But the most exciting part about Inkling, to me, is its notation（批注）system. Here’s how it
works!
When you purchase a used print book, it comes with its previous owner’s highlights and
notes in the margins. It uses the experience of someone who already went through the class to help
improve your reading (how much you trust each notation is obviously up to you).
But with lnkling, you can highlight a piece of content and make notes. Here’s where things
get interesting, though: If a particularly important passage is highlighted by multiple lnkling users,
that information is stored on the cloud and is available for anyone reading the same textbook to
come across. That means users have access to notes from not only their classmates and Facebook
friends, but anyone who purchased the book across the country. The best comments are then sorted
democratically by a voting system, meaning that your social learning experience is shared with the
best and brightest thinkers.
As a bonus, professors can even chime in (插话 ) on discussions. They’ll be able to answer
the questions of students who are in their class directly via the interactive book.
Of course, Inkling addresses several of the other shortcomings in traditional print as well.
Textbook versions are constanly updated, motivating publishers by minimizing production costs
(the big ones like McGraw-Hill are already onboard). Furthermore, students will be able to
purchase sections of the text instead of buying the whole thing, with individual chapters costing as
little as $2.99.
There are, however, challenges.
“It takes efforts to build each book,” Maclnnis tells me. And it’s clear why.
Each interactive textbook is a media-heavy experience built from the ground up, and you can
tell that it takes a respectable amount of manpower to put together each one.
For now the app is also iPad-exclusive, and though a few of these educational institutions are
giving the hardware away for free, for other students who don’t have such a luxury it’s an added
layer of cost — and an expensive one at that.
But this much is clear. The traditional textbook model is and has been broken for quite some
time. Whether digitally interactive ones like Inkling actually take off or not remains to be seen,
and we probably won’t have a definite answer for the next few years.
However the solution to any problem begins with a step in a direction. And at least for now,
that hazy mirage in the distance? A little more tangible (可触摸的 ), a little less of a dream.
