Reading Part:

Advisor Meetings Should No Longer Be
Required At present, students are required to meet with their academic advisors before the beginning of every semester. The advisors help students select courses and advise them on graduation requirements. However, I don’t see the point of required meetings, since the necessary information about the courses is already available on the university’s Website, which all students have access to. In addition, eliminating meetings with advisors would ease the difficulty that students often have in finding a time to schedule a meeting when both they and their advisors are free. Sincerely, Amy Williams

Listening Part：

Now listen to two students discussing the letter.
(man) Did you see this letter?
(woman) Yeah, why?
(man) Well, I don’t agree. It’s definitely not the same thing to just go on the university’s Web site.
(woman) You don’t think so?
(man) No, I mean, sure, the basic information is there, but that’s not all advisors help you with. Sometimes there’re different ways you can meet a requirement f or graduation, like, different classes you can take. And if you talk to someone, they can help you figure it out.
(woman) And you can’t get that from just reading what’s on the Web site.
(man) Right, advisors have a lot of expert information so they make it easier for you to see what your choices are.
(woman) I see what you mean.
(man) And as for scheduling meetings, I’ve never had that kind of trouble.
(woman) Me neither.
(man) So anyone who does have problems must be waiting to the last minute to set something up.
(woman) That’s possible.
(man) I mean, the thing is, if you call or go to the office early enough to set up an appointment, schedules are open. It’s just that if you wait till the last possible day, it’ll be harder cause they already have lots of students scheduled then.

Question:

The man expresses his opinion about the proposal in the letter. Briefly summarize the proposal then state his opinion and explain the reasons he gives for holding that opinion.

Tips:

典型的“一拖二”模式，但是listening部分信息量比较大，因此对信息处理能力有较高要求。答题的时候说出关键点即可，细节可以忽略。

Sample Answer:

The university decides to announce that the advisers meeting are no longer required because students can get the necessary information about the courses on the university’s Web site. The man holds the opinion that the advisers meeting is necessary. He states that students can figure out more information with advisers’ help. Sometimes students can not just get everything on the Web site, and advisers’ suggestion would make it easier for them to see their choices. Meanwhile, scheduling meetings are not necessary due to seldom of the students have that kind of trouble, and it hard to set up an appointment because there are often a lot of students.
