Task1
Which would you recommend to build for a university toenhance its students’
living and studying condition?
A. Cafeteria
B. Swimming pool
C. Expand the scale of laboratories on campus.
Sample response:
A:
From where I stand, I think the university should build acafeteria with a lot
features to attract more to come to rest. Firstly,cafeterias on campus are
places for students to rest legs and study most of thetime. Students sit
together in a circle having sandwiches while talking about theassignments and
experiments, in which the atmosphere would be quite harmonious.As a result, a
cafeteria will give students one more place to stay during thebreak of two
classes either on the daytime or at night.
B:
In my own perspective, I would more likely to suggestbuilding several
swimming pools. There are several reasons I would like tomention.
Firstly, The truth is that students nowadays are all underextreme stress and
yearn for ways to distress. Again, swimming pool is a perfect place for
studentsto relax themselves after school or on holidays.
The second reason is that it is always fun to play withfriends at the pool. I
still remember the game between my mates.
C:
In my own opinion, I think it is crucial for a school tostrengthen its
fundamental constructions like laboratories, recreation centersand stadiums.
Also, it is so right to expand the scale of laboratories orupgrade its
facilities. As a result, students can do experiments inappropriately equipped
labs. On the other hand, school will at the same time beup-to-date.
Task 2
Which one of the twopatterns would help people to know each other better,
meeting at the firstsight or through long-term relationship?
Sample response:
I personally thinkpeople will get to know each other better through long-term
relationship.
There are several reasons I would like to mention.
Firstly, it seems impossible for us to know a person at thefirst time. There
are so many uncertainties left to discover. Take personalityfor example, people
would naturally behave themselves or becoming stressed atthe very first time of
meeting.
Secondly, if two individuals cannot build a bond betweenthem, they wouldn’t
give or show the true self to each other. Then they will not understand each
other.
