年月日大陆托福机经回忆(0000)

2011年11月13日大陆托福机经回忆听力第一题,特别长,说得特别快。
女的在做有关xxx研究,谈到了生物能源,老师讲了生物能源与细菌有关,女的很惊讶,以为细菌都是坏的(这是一个考题)。
老师还说有个故事以前做研究要找治什么病的药,结果发现生物能源了。
生物燃料现在很贵,很少有人用。
第四题,学生去学校书店买秋季学期的书,想提前学习,可是书店没有。
这儿有个考点,就是关于学生的专业和研究方法,注意他自己的打算和他助教的建议。
学生以为老师把书单给了书店以后,书店就会买。
工作人员说,书店有新政,每学期只买那个学期的书,因为学生提前知道下学期的书就能上网买更便宜的,书店竞争不过网上书店。
这儿会问工作人员对新政的态度。
学生最后只能问老师去要书单,自己去买,这也是考点。
第五题,有关communication。
人们关于同一东西的定义不同,这会影响交流。
学生觉得不可能,老师让他給table下个定义,学生说了一个,老师让他看三幅图并分别描述,最后学生发现自己的定义不对,明白看似简单的事其实很难(这是考点)。
老师又讲了描述一个东西可以从shape,XXX入手,但还不够,要考虑到function。
女生举了化学实验室的桌子为例。
老师也举了茶几能用来放花(有考点,但没听明白)。
这些特点可以是limited feature,把一个东西归入一个大类以后,可以用这些特点来细化。
另一个描述的方法是同义替换,比如女生说education可以定义成teach students,老师同意,而且说还能用拉丁语的原意来解释(有考点,但没听清)加试是鸟类迁移,霸王花,xxmusic,太经典了。
我们考场全是听力加试SECTION 1Conversation 1学生要申请毕业,去相关部门办理。
但是那里显示学生还有literature的学分没有修满。
学生解释说是选的是introductory courses,professor说可以算,他的同学也是这么research的(这里有点儿小混乱)。

XX年区住建局行政审批科述职述廉报告区住建局end-->begin-->行政审批科end-->begin-->XX年重点岗位述职述廉报告end-->begin-->今年,审批窗口在局党委和局长室的领导下,在区审批行政中心的监督和指导下,认真贯彻执行局年初制订的工作计划,紧紧围绕局中心工作,进一步解放思想、转变作风、优化环境、开拓创新,规范行政审批,实施行政服务提速增效工程,狠抓行政审批窗口服务质量,认真把党风廉政建设落到实处,努力创建群众满意窗口。
一是加强政治思想学习,围绕创建活动,加强廉政建设一是全面落实科学发展观,认真学习宣传贯彻党的十七届五中全会、十八大会议,中纪委十七届五次全会、省、市建设系统党风廉政建设工作会议精神,以及区委、区政府和区纪委的重要部署,深刻领会其内涵;在学习中注重把廉政建设理论学习同政治理论学习有机结合起来,把理论与实际相结合,扩大了学习范围,增强了学习效果。
树立了正确的权利观、地位观、利益观,进一步认识到了廉政建设的重要性,廉洁自律的必要性和违法违纪的危害性,增强了在新形势下拒腐防变的能力,树立了执法为民,强化了自身素质,提高了“防腐”免疫力。
二是紧紧围绕“五型机关”创建活动和深入创先争优活动,按照局《XX年党风廉政责任制考核方案》、《建立健全作风建设长效机制实施方案》、《全面推进廉政风险防控机制建设的实施方案》等廉政工作文件要求,结合审批窗口实际,开展形式多样的党风廉政学习教育活动,不定期开展业务检查和纪律检查。
二是优化审批流程,大力推行即办制。
四月份审批窗口对审批事项进行了认真梳理,找出切实际、可优化和提速的事项。
经过梳理,拟对“工程设计初步文件批复”流程进行优化和“建筑机械使用登记”进行提速。
“工程设计初步文件批复”流程,主要措施是采取技术审查提前,技术审查与审批分离,审查条件与以前相比减少很多,只要求提供已通过的规划方案、初步设计文件、地质勘察报告就可以组织技术审查,其他如发改局核准文件、环评批复等材料后置于批复前受理,业主单位可利用初步设计审查、修改完善期间来办理这些审批,虽审批流程内的时间并未提前,但大大节省此流程外办理部门手续用时。
2011年12月11日大陆托福机经回忆

2011年12月11日大陆托福机经回忆阅读部分:第一篇第一段动物有玩的天性,但是不好定义,因为动物在做其他的事情的时候会产生玩的行为,但是不是在玩。
第二段动物paly不好发现,因为有些行为要在adult后才能发现。
第三段动物paly消耗能量,脂肪,但是有重要意义,学到了本领第四段动物的妈妈爸爸保护宝宝,在安全环境下玩猴子之类的群居动物还能学会如何为group着想。
第五段动物如何告诉同伴我是在玩还tm在真人格斗,通过signal,例如狗狗,摇jb,这样同伴就知道了他在得瑟了而不是真格斗。
role of play in development,玩对动物的影响,玩能够锻炼肌肉还有什么的,玩的时候还有可能暴露自己的危险,通过跟ADULT玩学到些东西玩还能储存脂肪,什么的(有个排除题1增加寿命2储存脂肪3消耗能量4忘了++ 好像增加寿命没说吧)举了猴子的例子,因为猴子比较自私,说玩能够培养他们的社交能力,讲了狗的例子,先说了玩在某些程度上很难区分因为涉及到一些攻击还是捕猎的动作啊说明狗是如何向其他陌生的狗作出表示,使他们明白是在玩而不是攻击什么的,这里有题第二篇说达尔文的进化论是目前最有说服力的理论,但是其中所描述的进化,是一种缓慢的逐渐发生的。
于是就有科学家质疑这种逐渐性,认为虽然生物会进化,但是在同一物种进化前和进化后的会有明显的差别,而这两者之间的中间状态却一直都无法找到。
(意思就是说达尔文人为地进化论应该是一条斜线,逐渐向上的;而另一些人认为应该是呈阶梯状向上的)两个关键词gradualism和punctuated equilibrium。
其中说到有时候会有一些地质断层包含丰富的化石资料供人们研究。
举了一个xx人关于古代马的研究。
说马在很长一段时间内都保持体征不变,而后是突然间变成另一种样子的。
最后说环境会影响物种的进化。
环境稳定是,物种进化很慢,环境压力大时,进化得就快。
the pace of evolutionary change.第二个说达尔文的进化论是目前最有说服力的理论,在某个年代之前所有科学家都采纳这种解释但是其中所描述的进化,是一种缓慢的逐渐发生的。

--泰戈尔根据竹子点题班给的范围准备的,适用于2011年前三月份的考试,我已考过,但1月30号遇到的是新题,所以就把这些自己准备的东西拿出来和大家分享,口语也几乎不会被判雷同,所以大家可以放心参考~~~~【1】10月17号北美Task 1Describe a news or a story that you are interested in recently. And explain why you think it was interesting. Include reasons and details in your response.The news I’m interested in recently is that Yale professor Amy Chua describes in her new book how she forced strict discipline on her two daughters to make sure they met or exceeded her expectations. I find this interesting for two reasons. First, I never thought her views about child-raising should astonish Americans since those views are so common in Eastern countries. Furthermore, some people start to consider Chinese mothers too tough and Us mother too soft, but from my perspective, no matter soft or tough, the bottom line is that parents should be aware of what is happening in the world and help their children prepare accordingly.Task 2 some people prefer to take an essay question where they must write an essay to a question. Other students prefer to take a test with objective questions.Personally, I prefer taking an essay question for two reasons. First of all, writing an essay provides me with an opportunity to practice my scientific writing skills such as how to make use of literatures and how to organize the structure of an essay, and that’s helpful to my future development. Furthermore, an essay question encourages me to free my mind. That’s to say, I can give full play to my imagination without any limitation and finally give out creative answers So these are reasons why I prefer to take an essay question.【2】12月4号北美Task 1Describe a person you’d like to know more. Explain what you’d like to know more about this person. Include reasons and examples in your response.The person I am going to talk about is J.K.Rowling, the creator of the Harry Potter fantasy series. I’d like to know more about her from two aspects. First, I’m amazed at her creation of so many fascinating plots which ordinary people could hardly come up with. For example, I was attracted when reading of a train station named nine and three quarters. Meanwhile, as a single mother, living on public assistance, Rowling finished her writing of the first Harry Potter book in a café. I wonder how many difficulties has she gone through and overcome. So these are the reasons why I want to know J.K Rowling more.(109words)Task 2 Some people prefer to go to the same place for vacation. Others prefer to go to different places vacation and spend little time at each place. Which do you prefer? Use specific reasons and examples to explain your choice.Well, in my opinion, I prefer going to different places and spend little time at each place for several reasons. First of all, going to different places for vacation makes it possible for me to enjoy the variety of scenery and expand my horizons, which can make me fresh and more motivated to study and work later. In addition, visiting different places helps me meet more friends and we can exchange ideas about life and travelling. Thus, I can acquire knowledge at the same time. So, all in all, I prefer going to different places and spend little time at each place to going to the same place for vacation.(110words)【3】1月23号北美Task 1 Describe the steps, through which you once learned a new subject and explain how you learned it. Please include details and examples in your response.I’ve been learning a new subject named JAVA programming in the past few weeks. I learne d it through three steps as following. First of all, I read(过) the outline of this subject to find out some essential ideas and goals, and then made a reasonable plan for studying efficiently. Second, I borrowed some theoretical books to learn the process of writing source code and debugging to reduce the number of defects. Finally, I wrote small programs to exercise what I’ve learned from the books, and discussed problems with classmates and teachers. So these are how I learned JAVA programming through three steps.(106)Task 2: Some people prefer to listen or watch news every day, others prefer to listen or watch news occasionally.Personally, I prefer to listen or watch news everyday. First of all, It can make me know the newest things all over the world at the first time so that I can keep pace with the world and collect topics for conversation at the same time. Furthermore, it can help me to get the continuing coverage of some important events that I concern about. For example, when a earthquake occurred, I pay sustained attention to how is the everything going and do my best to help those poor people. So, all in all, I prefer to listen or watch news everyday.【4】10月10号北美Task 1 Describe a special experience which has changed you positively. Explain how it changed you. Include details and examples to support your response.The special experience I’m talking about is that once I lied to my father for some money t o buy a toy. My father saw through my lie but didn’t expose it until I told him the truth. This thing has changed me positively from two aspects. First, I realized the importance of honesty. I suffered from my lie because I considered myself as a bad perso n, and I’m relieved after telling the truth. Furthermore, I learned how to treat others’ mistake and become more tolerate. I really appreciate my father not exposing my lie because only in that case did I have courage to admit my mistake.Task 2:some students prefer to learn from people and events in the past; other students prefer to learn from current people and events.From my perspective, I prefer to learn from people and events in the past First of all, the experience in the past has been examined b y many people in history. Just as Newton says” If I have been able to see further, it was only because I stood on the shoulders of giants”, it’s much easier to succeed by learning from people and events in the past. Furthermore, we can make innovations by apply previous ideas to current situations. For example, we can use a previous method of cooking to create a new food. So these are reasons why I prefer to learn from people and events in the past.【5】9月19号北美Task 1 Describe a tool or equipment that you rely on often in your daily life. Explain why it is important to you.Include reasons and examples to support your response.The equipment that I rely on often in my daily life is my cell phone. It’s very important to me for two reasons. First of all, it’s the main tool which helps me keep connection with my relatives and friends , and no matter where I am, I can always communicate with them immediately. Furthermore, It also provides me many entertainments, such as interesting games and internet services. You know, during a stressful workday, occasional entertainment will help me to hold balance between work and rest., which does much good to my mental health. So, these are two reasons why I think my cell phone is important in my daily life.(113)Task 2 Some people prefer to face a challenge all by themselves. Others prefer to depend on other people’s help. Which do you prefer and explain why.Personally, I prefer to face a challenge all by myself for the following reasons. First of all, If I overcome a challenge all by myself, I would harvest a strong sense of accomplishment. Although maybe it’s more difficult and time consuming in this way than depending on others’ help, the result is more exciting. Furthermore, without others’ help, I have to face many prob lems that I’ve never met seriously. In the process of working them out, I can increase my abilities so that I could solve similar problems easily in the future. So all in all I prefer facing a challenge all by myself.【6】12月19号北美Task 1如果别人去你国家,你推荐什么食物给他,why.I would recommend a popular Chinese snack to the tourist, which is called stinky tofu, for the following reasons. First of all, stinky tofu, as a form of fermented tofu that has a strong odor, smells so special that a foreigner would not ignore it. My English teacher who comes from America tasted stinky tofu at the first time he saw it and couldn’t forget it. Furthermore, since this snake is cheap and can be found easily in the streets, a foreigner don’t have to go to expensive restaurants for having a taste. So all in all, stinky tofu is a good choice for a foreigner who comes to my country.Task2 Do you agree or disagree with the statement ? Teachers require students to participate in class discussion.I agree that teachers should require students to participate in class discussions. There are two reasons why I feel this way. First of all, by discussing an issue with fellow students instead of just listening to teachers, a student is actually forced to think in ord er to understand others’ opinions and present his own. Furthermore, class discussion is more effective a teaching method than giving lectures for teachers. In this way, not only the burden of teachers is released but also students are more interested in the issues. So these are reasons why I am for the contention that teachers require students to participate in class discussion.【7】2月27号北美Task 1 Describe the most important development of your country in the past 20/25 years. Explain why the development is important? Include details and examples in your response.Personally, I believe the development of telecommunication is the most important for our country in the past 20 years. First, advanced technology makes communication more and more convenient. For example, people replace most mails by sending emails on the Internet, which is more convenient and less time-consuming. Furthermore, modern telecommunication cost less than old methods of communicating. Because human labor is replaced by machines in this i ndustry, people don’t have to pay that much for workers, which is also some kind of resource conservation. So these are why I think telecommunication is the most important development of my country.Task 2 Do you agree or disagree that parents are the best teachers.From my perspective, I disagree that parents are the best teachers. There are two reasons why I feel this way. First of all, parents are not necessarily good examples for children. I mean, since children don’t have the ability to tell what’s ri ght and they just learn, some behaviors of their parents’ such as dishonesty and impoliteness may have negative effect on them. Furthermore, some parents spoil their children and don’t teach them strictly. For example, if the children do something wrong, p arents don’t point out their mistakes and let alone punish them. So these are the reasons why I don’t think parents are the best teachers.【8】9月11号北美Task 1Describe a positive change that emerged in your country. Explain how this change has influenced the way people live in your country.From my perspective, one of the greatest change that emerged in my country is the wide spread of online shopping. It has positively influenced the life of us from two aspects. First of all, people can just sit in front of a computer with their fingertips to buy some goods instead of going to the shopping mall, which can save much time for buyers. Furthermore, since online shopping makes shopping more convenient, people are more willing to purchase goods, that’s to say, online shopping has stimulated the demand and promoted economic growth in our country. (95)So these are how the wide spread of online shopping has influenced the way people live in our country.(114)Task 2:Some students prefer to prepare their projects on the due day. Other students prefer to prepare their projects much earlier before the due day.Personally, I prefer to prepare my projects much earlier before the due day for following two reasons. First of all, only if I have enough time for the projects, could I make a comprehensive preparation.

First of all, most stadiums are far away from my home and the process of tickets reservation is so rigmarole. For example, it will take me 4 to 5 hours to watch a 90-minute game including the time on the way there. Furthermore, I have no chance to swap what I don’t want to watch in a live game.
