About all these,you don't usually hear too much about.Student:why not?Professor:Oh,it's a funny thing about academia.It thinks scholars would do research about every topic imaginable.But actually,some authors,some genres aren't respective very much.So not very much is written them...gothic literature,detective novels.Student:But that's what the conference was about？Professor:Yeah,pretty much.It was kind of subversive,I guess.But there's a whole wealth of knowledge out there just waiting to be explored.I find that really exciting.Student:Sure.Professor:Yeah.Anyway,you wanted to ask me about the final paper?Student:Yeah，which I see now ties into the theme of that conference,since we're supposed to write about a book from one of those lesser genres.I was wondering what about science fiction?Professor:Sure.Though it's a genre that's actually getting more and more respect within academia.There was even a talk at the conference about Jack Vance.Student:He wrote planet of adventure,right?Professor:Yeah.He's a well-researched respected science fiction writer.If you're interested in science fiction,you could look them up.That leads you to lots of other authors and lots of possibilities for your paper.Student:Great.I'm relieved you think that,that's a good genre to study.I'll find a book that interests me and do the paper on that.It seems like most people assume that science fiction is kind of like,I don't know,junk literature.Professor:Yes,a lot of people do.Student:Yeah,but I've read somethings and I think that some of it is really well written and it takes so much imagination to write SCI-Fi.Professor:Well,careful,though,there is a difference between science fiction and Scifi.Student:What do you mean?Professor:SCI fi,that's what you tend to see in films.It has all the spaceships and robots,and it focuses on exotic technology you know factor like special effects，at the expense of a well written story.I think a lot of people don't realize this and tend not to make a distinction.Student:Okay.Professor:But true science fiction is much more intellectual than that. The story is very important,and even though it might take place in an imaginary world,it might have exotic gadgets.The focus is on the plot.Science fiction creates metaphors about our world.And well what it means to be human.It's meant to get people to think about real things like history and human behavior.That's worthy of your time,but not SCI fi.Student:Great.Well.Can I let you know next week which book I want write about?Professor:Sure.题目1.Why does the man go to see the professor?A.To find out what the assignment is for the final paperB.To discuss a conference that the professor attendedC.To get a topic area approved for a class assignmentD.To find out the difference between science fiction and sci-fi2.What was unusual about the conference that the professor attended?A.It included presentations by many scholars who were not well known to the professor.B.It included presentations by students.C.It focused on authors who are respected by most scholars.D.It focused mostly on less popular literary genres.3.Why does the professor mention Jack Vance?[Click on2answers.]A.To encourage the man to write a paper about Planet of AdventureB.To support her point that some authors should be researched moreC.To indicate a way for the man to begin looking for a suitable topicD.To demonstrate that science fiction is gaining attention from scholars4.What is the man’s attitude toward science fiction?A.He is confident that it will become more respected.B.He disagrees with a commonly held opinion about it.C.He understands why it is not well respected.D.He is impressed that it includes exotic technology.5.According to the professor,what is a key difference between sci-fi and science fiction?A.Sci-fi is intellectually more challenging than most science fiction.B.Science fiction stories are often made into films.C.Science fiction places more importance on plot than sci-fi does.D.Science fiction makes little use of exotic technology.答案C D CD B C译文1.学生：上周末的会议如何，Miles教授？2.教授：很好，我听到了很多非常精彩的演讲，以及令人耳目一新的话题，而且这些话题平时都没机会听到。

Lyotard,meant narrative as in a way of understanding the world.Female Student:Um.I uh.Male Professor:How can I explain this uh,grand narrative...It's...It's like an idea that that helps people make sense of history.Like when you picture the early middle ages in Europe,but what do you think?Female Student:Okay,like,um,there weren't a lot of cultural achievements then, lots of wars,but not a lot of important art or books or anything,like it was the Dark Ages.Male Professor:All right that that's a simple explanation of a time in history,right?

So you want to know when it's safe to explore them.Unfortunately,it'll be dry this weekend.Now,these deep,narrow slots are pretty common.You might even have two of them very close to each other with only a thin wall of rock in between.Of course,frost wedge is still at work,so it starts wearing away at the front of the thin wall until you get a whole I mean a hole all the way through the wall,front to back.And this hole gets bigger and bigger.Once it's at least one meter in diameter,it's called a window.And eventually the weight on top of it is just too much,so the roof caves in and only the sides,sometimes it's just one side is left standing.These sides,which look a lot like collins,now are called Hudos.Here's a photo of something we'll be seeing.One of the things that makes Bryce canyon unique is that it has more Hudos than anywhere else in the world.Yes,Margot?Female student:Why is it so lumpy looking?You'd think it would be smoother.Professor:Well,remember,these are sedimentary rocks,so they have layers.Some layers are mostly limestone,and limestone erodes pretty quickly in the presence of any kind of acid.Now Bryce canyon in a very unpolluted area,but even,there the rain water has a little carbolic acid in it,which causes the limestone to erode.But other layers are made up of different types of sediment,which aren't so vulnerable to acid,so they don't erode as quickly.题目1.What is the lecture mainly about?A.The length of time required to produce sedimentary rocksB.The role of climate conditions in the creation of sedimentary rocksC.Some processes that produced a specific group of rock formationsD.Some unique geologic features found in canyons in the United States2.According to the professor,what is one characteristic that frost wedging and runoff share?A.Neither occurs in a desert.B.Neither is a frequent event.C.Both are weathering processes.D.Both are seasonal phenomena.3.Why does the professor show a picture of a slot canyon?A.To give students a sense of the size of a typical slot canyonB.To show students one of the places they will visit on their field tripC.To illustrate how many sediment layers are visible in a typical slot canyonD.To show how much slot canyons can vary based on local climate conditions4.What is the professor's attitude toward students exploring Bryce Canyon on their own?A.He worries that students may not know to take appropriate precautions if they go by themselves.B.He suspects that many students will not go on their own if such a trip requires them to get up early.C.He hopes that the class field trip will motivate students to visit Bryce Canyon on their own.D.He believes that students learn more from individual exploration than they dofrom being in a group.5.How is a hoodoo formed?A.Runoff produces large gravel deposits.B.Air pollution leads to a buildup of limestone.C.The roof of a rock window collapses.D.A flash flood washes away the base of a rock wall.6.According to the professor,what two factors explain why a hoodoo does not have a smooth shape?[Click on2answers.]A.The presence of acid in rainwaterB.The temperature swings between the summer and the winter seasonsC.The composition of the hoodoo's sedimentary layersD.The location of the cracks created by frost wedging答案C D A A C AC译文听一段地质学的讲座。

托福写作tpo62综合写作范文
托福写作tpo62综合写作范文英文回答：In the lecture, the professor discusses the topic of the impact of television on children's development. The professor presents two main points to support his argument. First, he mentions that excessive television watching can lead to a decrease in children's physical activities, which can have negative effects on their health. Second, he explains that watching too much television can also hinder children's cognitive and social development.The professor points out that when children spend too much time watching television, they are less likely to engage in physical activities such as playing outside or participating in sports. This sedentary lifestyle can lead to obesity and other health issues. For example, a study conducted by the American Academy of Pediatrics found that children who watched more than two hours of television per day had a higher risk of developing obesity compared tothose who watched less. This shows that excessivetelevision watching can have a detrimental impact on children's physical well-being.Furthermore, the professor explains that excessive television watching can also hinder children's cognitive and social development. He mentions that children who spend too much time in front of the TV may have difficulties focusing and paying attention in school. Additionally, they may have limited social interactions and struggle with developing important social skills. For instance, a study published in the Journal of Pediatrics found that children who watched more than three hours of television per day had lower academic performance compared to those who watched less. This demonstrates that excessive television watching can impede children's overall development.中文回答：在这篇讲座中，教授讨论了电视对儿童发展的影响。

托福听力tpo60 lecture1、2、3 原文+题目+答案+译文Lecture1 (1)原文 (1)题目 (3)答案 (5)译文 (5)Lecture2 (7)原文 (7)题目 (9)答案 (11)译文 (12)Lecture3 (13)原文 (13)题目 (16)答案 (18)译文 (18)Lecture1原文Listen to part of a lecture in an art history class.As you know, artists today can choose from an enormous selection of media, including water colors, acrylic paints, not to mention special pains formulated for almost any surface you might wanna paint on. But even so, oil paints are still the medium of choice among most professional artists and hobbyists. So why is that? well, for one thing, oil paints extremely versatile, suitable for many different painting styles, different subjects, and different sizes of work. Another advantage is thatthey're easy to use. Even for beginners, they can be manipulated. You can apply oil paint to a canvas. And then because they don't dry right away, they can be scraped off and paint it over.So you don't have to waste expensive material every time you make a change. Unlike acrylic paint, which really can't be moved once it's applied, acrylic paints dry very quickly. So in general, when using them, it's more difficult to make changes. And with watercolors, you can't really paint over a mistake, because it really diminishes the freshness of the colors. So oil paint is the medium of choice for many painters. Nowadays, anyway, in terms of art history, oil paints actually pretty young in Europe before the invention, rather, the development of oil paint, painters mostly used Tempera. Tempera was made with egg yolk. Believe it or not, the yoke acted as a binder. A binder enables the color pigment to stick to your canvas, and no temporal wasn't always yellow. If that's what you're thinking. Artists made their own paint by mixing egg yolk with a color pigment like powdered iron ore copper. But it dried very fast, which left little room for error or change.You really had to get it right the first time. Then in the early 15th century, a Flemish painter named Jan of Van Eyck started experimenting up after that emperor in one of the Nikes paintings cracked while drawing in the sun. He decided to try to make a paint that would avoid this fate. So he tried. And oil mixture, actually other painters before him had tried using oils as a binder. So while the Nikes credited with inventing oil paint, it's not entirely true. In Greece and Italy, olive oil had been used to prepare pigment mixtures, but the paint took a really long time to dry, just the opposite of tempera. But van Eyck had a secret recipe for his oil paint. He used linseed oil. Not only did this paint dry without cracking, van dyke also discovered that it could be applied in very thin layers. This technique gave the colors of depth that was previously unknown. And just as important, the linseed oil actually increased the brilliance of the color. So as a result, pigment oil mixtures became very popular among artists. Some tried to improve the paint by developing their own recipes, like uh, by using walnut oil, for instance, or by cooking their oil mixtures. But a greatmany began using some sort of oil as their binder.Now with all this experimentation with mixtures, well, it took a long time for artists to get comfortable with using these new oil paints to get a true feeling for how to apply them to the best effect. The early painters in oil like that Ike laid the paint down in thin layers with brush strokes that were so delicate that they're practically invisible. And it really wasn't until the end of the 16th century and in the 17th century that the full potential of oil paint was realized, for example, that's when artists finally began to combine delicately painted areas with thick brush strokes. So you could actually see the marks of the brush combining the rough and the smooth gives oil paintings great textural depth. Of course, the public who are used to smooth surfaces actually complained that these paintings looked unfinished. And some of that attitude carried over until later centuries, like, well, you're probably familiar with the work of the painter Vincent Van Gogh. Van gogh's famous nowadays for his thick, swirling brush strokes. But amazingly enough, his work was not appreciated back in the 19th century, and he sold just one painting during his lifetime. Of course, the French impressionists, who were his contemporaries, attained more popular acclaim, but they used a different technique. They applied oil paint and thick dabbs to depict the effects of light on the landscape.题目1.What does the professor mainly discuss?A. The relationship between painting techniques and types of paint that are usedB. Reasons for the changes in the popularity of oil paint since the seventeenth centuryC.

The main point of the book I was referring to is that, well, in a post-modern world, we live in a world of unreal images of simulations. For example, the things we see on TV become a reality for us even though they are not in fact real. They’re representations, simulations of reality.Student: Post-modern world?Professor: Right. It came after the modern one.Student: Gee...thanks a lot.Professor: No, sorry. You are right. Post-modern, well, that’s a sticky term that covers a lot of things. Let’s save that for later. But back to my point about simulation, it leads to hyper-realism, a feeling that something is more real than real.Student: Wow…Wow, I’m sorry. But all this is…I just don’t get it.Professor: Video games, virtual reality, theme parks, all of these remove us from reality. Worse yet, we can begin to think these simulations, these fake experiences are real, or we don’t know the difference anymore.Student: Well, actually I’m starting to think this class is not for me. In fact, I wonder if I might not do better just to drop the course.Professor: Oh, you are still having trouble following this?Student: Yeah, I just don’t think I’m cut out for philosophy. I signed up because my academic advisor…well, I feel like my advisor sort of pushed me into it. Professor: I see. If I may ask, what are you interested in?Student: I want to be a lawyer.Professor: Well, then you need a firm base in logic and argumentation, so this philosophy course is basically a necessity for you.Student: I hope not. I could only get maybe half the lecture.Professor: That’s pretty good then. I covered a lot, probably too much. And these were only some opening remarks for the first day of class. I was just skimming through some contemporary ideas and, well, more cultural theory than actual philosophy, so you needn’t worry. Starting next week, we are going to read some real philosophy, primary sources like Plato, Rousseau, Emerson. And you’ll be able to talk about them in small discussion groups led by graduate assistants.Student: Well, I don’t know.Professor: I understand you are uneasy about this course, but, well, give it another chance, attend a few more sessions, get into your assigned discussion group, then see how you feel. Look, these ideas, like what post-modernism really is. They are ideas that people developed over years, careers, lifetimes. I didn’t mean to scare you.Student: I guess I should have just taken it in the spirit it’s intended, as an intro. You are right that instead of trying to wrap my mind around every little detail all at once, I need to work on seeing the bigger picture and not getting so stressed out. Professor: Well, don’t think you are going to learn all the law right away either. Have you looked at the law library lately?Student: Yeah. Talk about scary!题目1.What is the conversation mainly about?A. Reasons that philosophical concepts are difficult to defineB. The intended purpose of the discussion groupsC.
