This is Scientific Americans' 60-Second Science. I'm Karen Hopkin . This'll just take a minute.

If I ask you to picture someone who recycles, you might come up with an image of an idealistic young nature lover, someone who has the time and energy to take a personal interest in the environment. At the very least you probably picture more earth mother than soccer mom. But a new study from the University of Granada suggests you'd be wrong. Because scientists there have found that housewives are more ecologically aware than undergrads in that they are more willing to recycle. The researchers assessed the recycling skills of some 500 university students and 150 homemakers. And they found that the housewives separate glass from their garbage more often than students even though students say they are pro-environment. So why are housewives better friends to the planet than students? The researchers say that maybe because it is easier for them. Students have to haul their vast stockpiles of recyclables some distance to the proper receptacle, whereas housewives presumably just deposit their bottles at the curb. The researchers suggest that students could be encouraged to recycle by programs that emphasizes how recycling is an ethical imperative for those who care about the earth. Or maybe the schools could just put a few extra recycling bins in the halls.

这篇相对容易. 这句没听出来:Students have to haul their vast stockpiles of recyclables some distance tothe proper receptacle,

查了下soccer mom指的是 Amiddle-aged upper middle class woman (ussually white)and lives in the suburbswho devotes her life to her childeren.
Receptacle: an object or space used to contain something :trash receptacles.

听写了一段时间的60sec,收获还是很大的.从一开始不知其所云到现在基本听一遍就能知道大概讲什么.
目前我的听写流程是:听一遍后知道大概.第二第三遍一句一句听写.然后看一下文本,标出没听出来部分.第四遍对着文本听那些没听出来的部分.第五第六遍不看文本听.第七遍看着文本跟着读.这样的流程大概需要半小时.

说说今天考试的感受吧！~

阅读：
整体感觉还行，不知怎的ETS开始把同义句替换放在第一题，还有点小小不习惯了说！~
听力：
有点难，TT，最后一题木有来得及点啊,泪奔~~o(>_<)o ~~！ 不过听力是经典加试！~希望有所弥补！ 保佑！！~
口语：
都是比较熟悉的题材，口语真经很有用，大家提前开始准备吧，多练习会有帮助。我是自己录音1-2题，然后平时多听听，熟悉观点和理由！
作文：
综合作文的听力有点难度，这次没有刻意准备模板，本来是想根据听力写灵活一点，不过还是有点短路，听力有点难！
独立作文2010年的老题目。


这次没有看预测JJ，之前看了对分数提高也没有帮助！so, 实力是关键！~


今天刚考完，分数没有出来，谈不上什么经验分享，只是说说感想，希望对大家有帮助！~~

小A努力复习,积极迎考,好棒!开始准备申请了,幸福的.

考场环境怎么样?很多干扰吗?你觉得听力比较难的部分和tpo比如何?

很抱歉，最近再赶Deadline...
考场都差不多，美国那边应该和国内不一样吧。。电脑都挺好使的。如果你要在国内考的话，我有个考场信息整合的资料，一会儿传上来。
听力最后一点可能会受影响，因为有人开始说口语了。所以建议把声音开大一点，那个耳机隔音效果还不错。
听力的难度和TPO后面的比较接近吧。
前面的TPO因为我做了很多遍，觉得偏简单。。

This is Scientific Americans' 60-Second Science. I'm Cynthia Graber . This'll just take a minute.

You think we enjoy something based on its intrinsic qualities. Food should taste good because its molecules tickle our tongues. But it's much more complicated than that. For example, one study has shown that knowing the ingredients and name brand of a beer can increase the drinker's pleasure. What is going on in our brains that allows that to happen? Researchers at the California Institute of Technology recently investigated our neural response to this non-intrinsic stimuli. 20 subjects tasted what they thought were five different wines. They were given the price for each. But in reality, there were only 3 wines. 2 were offered twice, once at an alleged low price and once at a much higher price and the subjects consistently said they enjoyed what they thought were expensive wines more. A functional MRI showed that there was no change in activity in the taste center of the brain when the subjects drink what they thought were costly wines, but the MRI also reviewed increased activity in the brain's pleasure centers. So somehow our brains combine both the actual taste and what we expected about the taste. In this case, that'll be better because it is pricier. In vivo veritas!

错误比较少,听写稿就不上传了.几个单词的解释如下.

Molecule 分子 molecular 分子的 注意不同的发音

Tickle: 文中意思 appeal to (someone's taste, sense of humor, curiosity, etc.) : here are a couple of anecdotes that might tickle your fancy.
另外一个意思:挠痒痒

In vivo veritas: 拉丁语=In wine there is truth. 酒后吐真言.
