Task1
School is planning to forbid the use of cellphone on campus. What do you think are the effects of the policy?
Sample Answer:
The prohibition of using cellphone has both positive and negative effects on students.
Merits are that cellphone is a useful tool for students in many aspects of their daily lives. The multifunction of a cellphone can be a lot help to them when it comes to checking new vocabularies and learning extra curriculum online.
However, One the other hand, the misusage of this tool can be a disaster for students’ study and health. When they obsessively cling to it and get distracted by the information considered negative for students, chances are that their performance in study and also physical condition will both heading downward.
Task2
Do you agree or disagree with the statement that students should be rewarded if they perform well at school?
Sample Answer
From what I know, I would agree with the statement that students should get praised when their parents have a positive feedback of them from school. There are several reasons that I would point out here.
Firstly, the motivation for students to continue to work hard as before or even harder than before, I would assume that the award is a stimulus to students who have a remarkable performance at school. It makes perfect sense for parents to do so.
Secondly, the satisfaction for students to be happy, the tedious process of studying is really hard for students to take at school. If they can receive any kind of gift as the encouragement for their hard work, it will really make them feel relieved.
Task3
The professor plans to use a research paper rather than a test for the final.
教授认为：可以让学生有更多时间准备一个确定的话题，从而会研究得更加深入。
男生不同意：这个课程是介绍性课程(introductory course)，只介绍了基本知识。不需要了解很深。另外，因为现在已经有学生准备考试了，如果换成研究论文学生又要做更多工作更有压力。
Task4
术语是：Renewal ecology,意思是，把一个地方恢复到原始的自然状态。
Lecture: 以学校为例，学校本来是荒地，有wild grass, flower和bush, 后来为了建设操场，就都被毁掉了。现在学校打算重新种回这些植物，可以恢复到原来物种的多样性，吸引一些其他的生物回来，从而让学生更亲近自然同时学会自然的知识。
Task5
男生因为上课坐的椅子不好的原因，造成了back hurting, 医生建议他换一把椅子，但是医生建议的网站上现在没有那种椅子。第一个办法是等3-4week，才能配送(deliver)。第二个是在附近的工厂买一把比较相似的很便宜，这个男生坐了也比较舒服。
Task6
跳槽对于公司的影响。
首先经济效益。一个人跳槽，公司要花很久时间找代替的人因此造成损失。比如，家具公司走了一个师傅，别人可能不会他的手艺，这个公司以后可能就不能生产这样的产品。
其次：影响其他人的工作效率，同事会不习惯，降低工作效率。比如，如果一个很有灵感和创造力的设计师退休了，同组的人可能会不知所措。

写作指导：
Agree:
单边
年长的人已经有一定的经济实力， 能够有更多的资本去探索新的东西，因为很多新的事物需要投入更多的物力和财力。 即使不成功，还是有一定的经济基础，能够基本的维持自己的基本生活。但是年轻人刚开始也没有什么资金，一旦失败了，生活会过的很艰难，还会牵连到自己的家庭。
年长的人有更多的社会经验和阅历，当他们挑战新的事物的时候，有更多的经验可以参考。即使没有相同的事件，但是也会根据自己的经历去合理的推理。但是年轻人通常想问题比较片面和单一，做事情也比较冲动，因此失败的概率会更大。
Disagree
单边
1. 年轻人接受的知识更加新，能够顺应时代的潮流。但是老年人思维呆板，想问题的角度比较呆板，不容易成功。
2. 年轻时才有精力去take risk和explore。年轻人精力好，越是新的东西，越需要投入更多的精力，年轻人可以熬夜也可以更多的加班加点，投入更多的时间。但是年长的相对来说体力已经跟不上，而且年长的更加顾及家里的孩子，也希望更加稳定的生活，不愿意冒风险。
3. 年轻的时候多冒险和探索，体验不同的可能性，也会使得生活更精彩。很多事情即使失败了，但是都是给我们人生留下了很多很美好的回忆。
