Reading
Passage 1.是一個跨歐亞非的帝國興衰 (Decline of the Ottoman Empire) 古代地中海附近的一個國家,不斷軍事擴張,變得很繁榮,但隨著版圖擴大,周邊國家的威嚇並且後面幾代君主能力不如以前,這個國家漸漸衰退,還介紹了他的政治制度,雖然君王一個人掌權,但後來產生兩種職位分權,一種是有人對君王進行授權,一種是很有權力女人。隨著國家經濟社會衰敗, 最後提到了一個解決辦法,但為時已晚。

Passage 2.是肺炎雙球菌到發現遺傳物質是DNA 基因的意外發現,科學家做實驗都有某種目的,但往往會有意外發現,全篇說一個科學家透過研究細胞,研發疫苗,發現有S和R兩種細胞,作對比試驗,R菌注入到老鼠體內可使老鼠不死亡S菌住到老鼠體內是死亡的。有科學家認為S可以轉化導致R也變成S後面有對理論的支持與反駁,發現一種細胞可以攜帶依些特點遺傳到下一代,這種遺傳物質轉化因子就是DNA但當時科學界還是很多人認為蛋白質就是影響遺傳的東西,因為他們認為蛋白質組成夠複雜。

Passage 3.是地理隔離導致種化的過程 生物隔離講物種間的isolation通過地理隔離物種間存在差異,先講形成這種地理隔離的原因後面講這種隔離帶來的影響,就是剛開始同一個物種,因為地理原因的相隔,時間久了就會變為兩個不同的物種烈如美國的兩種松鼠,被一個大峽谷分隔,生活環境不一樣,吃的東西就不一樣,就從一個物種變成了兩個,還舉個群島的例子,上面有種鳥,後來演化成13種鳥,還提到物種的隔離還和物種的大小有關係。詞彙virtually, astonishing.


Listening
Talk 1 圖書館借書 一個女生去別的大學圖書館借書,但借書證不見,找了很久好像放在自己大學,兩個辦法:一重新辦張證;二版臨時借書證先用,但因為辦證花時間太長了,後來辦臨時借書證。

Talk 2 心理學幼兒 觀察可幫助了解他是怎樣的人價值觀人格等。做了兩個實驗,第一是有三個幾何圖形,上面都貼眼睛,向人似的,有一個要往上爬就是幫忙,還有另外一個就往下踢,看孩子選哪一個,大多選幫助往上爬的。另一個實驗還是這幾個圖形,沒有眼睛,然後孩子就沒有做出選擇了,後判斷人到底好的壞。

Talk 3 天文月亮 講月球,涉及月球土壤的化學成分還有其他的價值。

Talk 4 打工求職推薦信 有個男的去找老師,請他幫忙寫求職推薦信,是家軟件公司,跟他所學相關,結果那個男的說周五就截止了,沒時間拖了,後來老師說這次先幫你寫,下次一定要提前說。

Talk 5 動物微生物 講微生物形成菌落,細菌在物體表面上聚集,大量繁殖形成糖類物質的聚合體,有管道細菌可透過他來移動,拿水中細菌為例,水中的青苔是怎麼形成的,最後細菌會散開,蛀牙也是如此,出了排序題。

 Talk 6 電影表演 講到關於演戲的。說表演的最高境界就是很自然。就已經不像是在表演了,而是自然到本身人就是這樣,教授聚了自己的例子說他以前在中介中心時,被嫌棄說你根本不是在表演,根本就是你自己想怎麼做就怎麼做,後面就講到他後期表現以及他怎樣才能演成角色就是自己的那種感覺。

Integrated Writing (P.68 新範圍: 口說寫作) (p. 43菁華版)
The article discusses whether the largest bird on Earth could fly or not. The reading suggests it can’t for three reasons. The professor feels that it’s possible that the bird flew.
1.The wings are too long and may hit the ground when the bird claps its wing. Content missing: 2.The wing is too long so the muscles cannot effective flap the wing. They can glide like eagles and not necessarily flap their wings.

3.The evolution of flight requires a purpose, but these birds are so big that they do not need to fly to avoid predators. They also do not need to fly in order to hunt. The birds could still fly. They may not have to hunt and could eat carcass, but they still need to be able to fly high to see the carcass.

Talk 1 選課轉專業 (p.22 舊範圍:閱讀聽力)
學生找他的academic advisor, 原本是學電腦美術但現在想找跟野外生物相關的,因為他喜歡跟野生動物接觸,可是academic advisor,說你不好好利用你的專業找個相關工作,你換幹嘛?學生說野生動物才是他真正想要的。後來只好想辦法,可以問問看那一系的教授意見。但轉過去的話可能不能按時畢業,最後academic advisor請學生自己好好想想,多跟這系教授做交流,下周再來找他。

Talk 2 生物動物記憶
大腦裡有兩個控制記憶的區域:1.e-system 2.s-system 後者是學過東西的記憶,required那一類 前者則是經歷過的東西。後來科學家做了調查,說後者是動物跟人都有的,前者只有人有,拿鳥做實驗,在不同時間,給他吃蟲,看最後有沒有記住。

The Authenticity of the Laocoön Sculpture by Michelangelo
RT: A sculpture, Laocoön, have always been considered an antique, but it was later discovered that Michelangelo forged it/
R1: He has forged statues in the past so he probably did this one as well.
R2: He drew many painting similar to this work.
R3: He forged the sculpture out of financial motivation.
LT: R is doubtful
L1: Michelangelo only engaged in forgery during the early beginnings of his career. He was young then and he needed to create a statue to prove his talent by winning everyone’s recognition. After he forged the older statue, he had no need to forge another one.
L2: Although is drawing and paintings are similar to the statue in some regards, there are also differences: the figure in the drawing is holding his left, while the one in the statue is holding his right; one in the drawing has a straight torso while the other had a twisted torso. These similarities are coincidences.
L3: It was too risky for Michelangelo to engage in these practices. The people who purchased his works are royalties (kings, queens). If they were to find out that they bought forged statues, he would lose all his customers and see his career destroyed. (p. 20菁華版) (p.18 舊範圍:口說寫作)
