Task 1

Which of the following community service would you be more interested in doing and explain why? Cleaning the city park, planting flowers and trees or build a bicycle lane?

Sample answer

Honestly, I’ll definitely go for planting trees and flowers because this is something that can actually comfort me mentally. I’ll just do it naturally and spontaneously without forcing myself to participate in those community works that I'm not really into. And eh, I can also switch up from the fast-paced life and try to find a sense of tranquility and chill out a bit. On top of that, by planting more greens, I'm actually doing something to protect our mother earth, even though it’s just a tiny step but still makes me feel a sense of achievement and that kinda feeling is indescribable. So I’ll definitely do it because i have a certain and stronger urge and interest of doing so rather than the other two.

Task 2

Do you agree or disagree that the success of a school depends on experienced teachers?

Sample answer

Alright, let’s back to life, back to reality, experienced teachers cannot be the deciding factor to judge whether a school is good or not cuz experienced teachers have been teaching for so many years and they're probably tired of teaching the same old stuff over and over again and for the record, they are not as passionate as new teachers when it comes to teaching. In that case, a school should also hire some new faculty members in order to import some new blood so that students can benefit more from this change and the school, of course, is going to be a very successful school.

What’s more, advanced facilities like a spacious indoor gym with all sorts of equipment, fancy and cozy dorms with wifi, and a wider selection of school activities are also really crucial when it comes to the evaluation of a successful school.

Task 3

Sample answer

In this reading passage, the student proposes that the university should set some coffee and tea station in student dorms cuz that can be so time efficient and also saves students a lot of money.

In the conversation, the woman can’t agree more with this proposal for two reasons. The first reason is that it’s really hard for students to get up early in the morning and they are always in a rush and they don't have time for breakfast. It can be a whole lot easier for them to grab a nice cup of coffee in their dorm buildings and they don't have to go all the way to the dining hall. What’s more, it can also save them a lot of money from buying coffee and tea by doing so. Things in the coffee shop in our campus are always more expensive.

Task 5

Sample answer

In this conversation, the woman is facing a problem that the man was supposed to drive her and company her to watch a play, but the man realized that he still got one class to go at the last min so that there would be no one to drive her to the play.

So here are two solutions for her. The first one is that the woman can drive the man’s car by herself. Another solution is the woman take a public transportation.

I think the woman should definitely choose the first solutions because it’s such an exhausting thing to take a bus, which may cause her a lot of energy and time and most importantly, it is not the cool thing to do. Taking a public transportation to a play? shut up, no way. What’s more, life is too short to play it safe, she should definitely jump out of her comfort zone and take chances. it should be fun to do that..

Task 6

Sample answer

So in the lecture, the professor is talking about the contributions of railroad to America and also gives us two examples to illustrate it.

The first example is that the business can sell their products to a further place and get more revenue. Like in the past, the business which sells clocks can only sell its clocks to local people. Overtime, as the expansion of railroad, the business can deliver their clocks to the entire country and sell to more people.

Another example is to make it possible to transport raw materials like coal. In the south of America, there are no factories due to the missing of coals cuz factories need energy provided by coals. As the expansion of railroad and coal utilization, which can transport coal from other regions to the south so that more and more factories can be built up there.
