Task 1

學校獲得一大筆錢，應該修建圖書館還是體育館還是實驗室

If the school received a barrel of money, what do you wish it will be spent on? A sports gym, a laboratory or a scientific research facility?

參考答案

If my school received a barrel of money, I'd wish the money be spent on building a gym for the following reasons. First, it's so much better to be able workout indoors. We can workout no matter what the weather conditions are. For example, we can play the badminton when it's windy outside. Also, we can workout during anytime of the day. For example, I have the habit of staying late in the library. If there were a gym in my school, I'll have somewhere to run in after all my works are done. Last, indoor activities are usually less intensive, which means it's less likely for us to get injured from exercising.

Task 2

學生是否part-time job

Some people believe that it is important for young people to have a part-time job as a working experience, while others think they should spend more time on their studies. What is your opinion and why?

參考答案

I think it's extremely important for students to have a part-time job for the following reasons. First of all, students can get real world experience from working off campus. Take myself for example, I waited tables part-time while I was in university. I learned a lot about how to deal with different kinds of people on that job. Also, working off campus means that students can get in touch with people that aren't students. Students have a chance to establish a professional network before leaving school. For example, some schools require students to intern at a local business as part of the graduate requirements. And I know people who have secured permanent positions at these firms even before they graduated.Task 3

Task 3

是學校計劃所有學生參加capital hospital實習，來使學生決定是否將醫學當職業和不占用上課時間實習。女生同意。因為可以將時間與課堂知識相結合，并且可以在職業前解決實習中遇到的問題。 第二沒聽太清楚。大概是可以不予課表相沖突，女生認為課程很難，她經常在實驗室很晚來做作業

Task 6

如何捕捉co2，一種是在排放之前捕捉，例如煤工廠就這樣，co2與一物質反應生成化學物質，吸收大部分co2;另一種在排放后捕捉。樹木會吸收co2做食物。例如某工廠就在工廠周圍中很多書來吸收產生的co2

背景知識

Main idea: two ways to capture and eliminate CO2 pollutions.

Example 1: chemical treatment that deals with the problem before the CO2 even leaves the factory. A coal factory uses a chemical to neutralize the CO2 in-house

Example 2: some factories choose to deal with polluted air at a later stage. For example: a factory plants great number of trees around the factory. The trees does a wonder job.
