1）讲生物的specie-xxx(不会拼) isolation,就是由于环境，栖息地habitat，impassable barrier等等的因素，怎么造成genetic flow,产生新的物种，怎么样又不会产生新的物种。总之，看得头昏眼花，这可能是第二篇或者第一篇，大家找找背景知识看看。
2）White dwarf,N打头的星， black hole, 大量谈及它们的形成，质量和引力，最后带到black hole 的发现是由于检测到从被吞噬的星体中发出的Xray。有一题问题是这三个家伙的共同点是什么，还有一个为什么很容易观测到white dwarf（我选因为它们很亮），还有为什么N打头星不容易观测到（我选它们太小）
vocabulary question appeared:
1. formidable (选项confusing,有一个选项是excessive，我选了另一个，没把握，这一题忘了属于哪篇的了)
2. engulfed (I chose swallowed)
3. annihilated (I chose destroyed) Every object even light near the black hole are xx and annihilated.
3）谈及为什么中国的中央集权是必须的。原因有几。其一，地理因素，谈到长城，还有匈奴的进攻。（有考题考到长城的弱点是什么）其二, 谈到 monsoon(季风) from the direction of Pillippines ,如果该季风遇到某个方向的风，而后降温才会造成降雨，否则就是干旱。中国有两个地方常年不是遭受水灾就是干旱。这些灾害需要各个地方一起出力整治，所以unification是必须的。（有考题关于季风满足什么条件才会造成降雨）
4) how to use the energy of the sea。第一段，谈到空气中的温差造成了air circulation, 产生了current which is partially responsible for the waves in the ocean.接着又说由于月亮的引力和earth rotation造成每天的潮起潮落。下面几段，谈到由于海里不同深度的水温不同，海里蕴藏大量的能量可以被人类使用。但是这个理论已经100年了，实际应用还很少，甚至试验也很少，提到日本。因为这些能量很难被利用，原因有三。第一，很难在海里收不同深度收集有温差的currents。第二，什么什么必须建在离land很近的地方。第三，需要很大面积的plant来循环不同温度的current. 好像有考harness这个词汇，原文中指利用（能源）。最后还说到tides是比较好利用的。
听力
1. A conversation between a student and his professor. Because of printer problems, the student was late for meeting with his professor discussing about how to make outlines of his paper. 对话中用了个比喻，好像把road-mapping比喻making outlines of a paper，考题问教授对学生的这个比喻有什么想法。The professor prefers a paper which is presented in an unusual way, but she insisted that the student should be step by step. The student says it may worth of the risk.
2. (Not quite sure about some detail, just a rough idea for your reference) children's important ability of joint connection in communication with his/her care giver. Baby will look the same thing which the care giver is watching. Two examples: First, baby looking at the walking cat. Second, the speaker's niece looks at a toy he wants and point at it to the care giver.
3. it’s about the mass media advertisement. There are two ways of persuading their customers to buy their products. Which way is better depends on what kind of product they are selling. The first way is the direct route of persuasion. The speaker takes a car which could use gasoline as well as electricity as an example. The car has special features and better than any other similar cars, so it is better to use direct route. That is to use concrete facts to attract customers. The second way is indirect route. The speaker uses a common car as an example. It is preferable to use indirect route in this case. He has mentioned that smile and driving the car to the beach, which is to create mental connection between cars and happiness.
4. Talks about the how the organic substance originates from the earth. He has mentioned Miller's experiment: he used 4 gases which are inorganic and were supposed to be the primitive substance on earth. In this experiment the electricity is a necessity to create organic compounds. (Question: what's the weakness of this experiment? What is the significance of this experiment? )
5. About algae(海藻) problem in the water body due to over nutrition. Algae bloom blocks the sunlight from going to the deep water, which cause death of some plants (grasses) in the deeper water. Algae decomposing process consumes a large amount of O2 which is vital for aquatic livings. Causing factors of prosperous growth of algae: fertilizers brought with the rain water, water waste from factories and people's everyday life, etc. solutions- a difficult problem to be resolved because it involves too many resources, but to increase the public's awareness are most important.
口语
1. What kind of film do you like most?
2. Do you agree or disagree: Students should wear uniform in school?
3. Reading: 图书馆改建，把旁边的session of student center改造成new library，从而increase library space.。目的有二，一是为了存放更多的materials，二是让学生有更多的地方学习。
Listening: GG 反对，feels it is not practical. 1) 可以通过技术手段解决。比如将资料转换为电子版，并不需要more space.. 2) 没听清 3）扩建只会导致买更多的书籍，new library 也终会full的。
4. Reading: short-term memory 的定义以及two ways that cause your short-term lost，一为decay，一为interference，前者指随时间流逝而消失，后者指受到干扰而消失。注意看清，这里是出题点。
Listening: 两个例子，分别说明这两种消失方式。例一，比如你从roommate那里问来某人的电话号码，当时你记得很清楚。但two hours以后，你就不记得了。例二，比如你要去书店，写了个list of new books，但是进书店时忘在车里了。当时你肯定还是记得很清楚。但是，如果你run into someone，和他大聊一番之后，便记不得书单，而只记得聊天的内容了。
5. MM的问题是，要写一篇article for 某某刊物/书籍（没听清），里面要interview a new professor。下周是deadline，但教授却field trip去了，暂时回不来。GG建议她：1) just state the simple facts, 就不采访了。可MM说关于教授的信息很重要。2) ask editor for extension, 等教授回来再采访写文章。可MM说那时太晚了，同学们都用不着了。问你的观点。
6. 教授介绍了两种advertisement的方法，一种是direct ro...，另一种是indirect ro...。选择哪种depend on the products，特别是看是否outstanding。随后教授给了两个例子。譬如，如果要打广告的是outstanding car，省油，有economic efficiency，就可以用direct，直接给顾客看concrete facts and statistics，用事实说话，该车如何之好。又譬如，要广告的只是ordinary car，没有outstanding car的优势，就不能用direct ro...办法，而应该用indirect ro...。比如，让某某人开着车，露出微笑，让人们建立mental connection between car and happiness，用这种socialization而非fact的办法来说服顾客。
