The passage and the lecture explore the issue of archaeology in United Kingdom. While the passage shows the three problems and limitation in the science of archaeology, the professor indicates that the rule adopted in United Kingdom in 1990 has changed the situation.

First, the professor claims that the damage caused by construction projects was cut down. According to her, the guidelines require that examination should be taken before any construction, and if the test shows that the place does have an archaeology value, the constructors, archaeologists, and officials should get together to make a plan to reserve this place. Thus, it is unlikely that many artifacts were lost to construction projects, as the passage says.

Second, the professor suggests that the fund of archaeology was no longer provided by government, because the guidelines ask construction company to undertake the cost of initial action and preservation fee. As the professor indicates, with financial supports from construction company, archaeologists have abundant funds to do more researches than the past.

Last, the professor states that there are more archaeologists than ever. As she says, archaeologists are needed in every state as they not only do examination but also write reports for construction companies. Archaeologists get well paid and more people want to do this kind of job.

In summary（in a nutshell很好，in summary 更常见，用这个考试吧。）, the professor points out that the obstacles in archaeology in the United Kingdom the passage shows were no longer existing.

7月6日Do you agree with the viewpoint that people are now easier to become educated than in the past?





The last decades haves seen the huge progress in education. Both developments of technology and the movement of people’s thinking make education more and more accessible to people. Thus, I totally agree to the viewpoint that people are now easier to become educated the in the past.



First of all, as more and more people get to know the essential role of education in one’s life, education is paid a lot of attention, which drive people to pursue knowledge eagerly than the past. As Maslow’s hierarchy of need demonstrates, once people’s physiological needs are satisfied, they begin to seek esteem and self-actualization, which ask one to have good education. Take my parents for example. As my mother had a miserable childhood, when food is the top concern of her family, she dropped out of high school and started to work. Now, my mother is no longer to worried about bread, and she return to part-time school to continue her study.



In addition, the modern technology provides various access to education, which help people to learn at any time they want. Distance learning, telephone classes and so on program enable people to choose classes they are interested in. I, majored in finance, recently is fascinated by philosophy, but I have no time to listen to a professor lecture. The internet does do me a great favor. I download the video of professor’s lectures and buy E-book from internet bookshop. Thus, I can learn philosophy at my leisure time.



Admittedly, there are still many poor families to poor to support their children to school, and their educations remain a problem. However, fortunately, more and more hope school are built, which provides children from poor family the chance to get educated. What is more, as the gender discrimination is eliminated, girls have the equal chance as boys to get education.



In summary, as the above-mentioned reasons, we can safely arrive to the conclusion that people are now easier to become educated than in the past. It is the right of every one to get education, and the education brightens people and guides them to truth and happiness.

As Maslow’s hierarchy of need（这个例子超赞的！！） demonstrates, once people’s physiological needs are satisfied, they begin to seek esteem and self-actualization, which ask（asks） one to have good education. Take my parents for example. As my mother had a miserable childhood, when food is the top concern of her family, she dropped out of high school and started to work.

这一段的小错误有点多哦，注意检查~
In addition, the modern technology provides various access（accesses） to education, which help people to learn at any time they want. Distance learning, telephone classes and so on program （这个是什么用法？）enable people to choose classes they are interested in. I, majored in finance, recently is fascinated by philosophy, but I have no time to listen to a professor（professor's） lecture. The internet(通常internet是用小写，如果是the Internet则是因特尔公司，专指~) does do me a great favor. I download the video of professor’s lectures and buy E-book from internet（online） bookshop. Thus, I can learn philosophy at(婷婷记得好像是on啊) my leisure time.

Admittedly, there are still many poor families to（too） poor to support their children to school, and their educations remain a problem. However, fortunately, more and more hope school(charity school) are built, which provides（promisees感觉好点） children from poor family the chance to get educated. What is more, as the gender discrimination is （gradually）eliminated, girls have the equal chance as boys to get (acquire/obtain)education.

In summary, as the above-mentioned reasons, we can safely arrive to(这个不确定，好像是at?)the conclusion that people are now easier to become educated than in the past. It is the right of every one to get education, and the education brightens people and guides them to truth and happiness.

The passageand the lecture discuss about the genetic modified trees. While the passage isin favor of the application of genetic modified trees, the professor disprovesthe opinion of the passage. And she uses three specific points to support herown opinion that genetic modified trees are not that good.

First, even though the passage claims thatgenetically modified trees are more likely to survive than nature trees, theprofessor contend that genetic modification only makes trees resist oneparticular condition, but it does not ensure their survive. As she says, naturetrees have diverse genes, which make some of individuals to survive when pestor extreme climate happens. However, trees whose genes modified are uniformedand may be completely wipedout when catastrophe happens.

Second. Despite the view of the passage thatgenetically modified trees bring economic benefits, the professor contradictsthis statement. According to the professor, seeds of genetically modifiedplants are more expensive than the normal ones. What is more, every timefarmers plant these trees, they have to pay the company, who modifies the genesof trees.

Last, although the passage suggests that usegenetically modified trees can prevent overexploitation of wild trees, theprofessor argues that trees with modified genes can do damage to the growth ofwild trees. This is because genetically modified trees are more aggressive thanthe nature ones. Thus, they will outcompete(我记得听力里面说的应该是competeout吧？)the wild trees.

In summary, the professor refuses the contentionof the passage, and shows her own opinion that the genetically modified treesare not that good.

Agree or disagree, in order to succeed, you should be more like others than be different from everyone else.



Imagine yourself were put in such a situation: everyone seems to hold the same opinion while you have different idea. Will you speak out your thought and let your voice be heard? It may be kind of embarrassed, as you seem to be the only one different from the rest. However, I, would like to let the world hear my voice. Thus, I definitely support for the contention that, one should be different from everyone else.



First of all, in such a uniform society, it is more likely that an innovational idea will not only attract attention, but also bring success. No one can deny the fact that many people who have novel thinking succeed. Steve Jobs may be the best example. Before he started Apple Company, no one had ever stepped into the field of personal computer. What is more, he is the first one to use a platform—which we now know as ITunes—to transform documents into mobile equipment. The end of the story of Steve is that he received not only millions of money, but also reputation all over the world. Even though he passed away, his fascinating ideas still provide miracle to the whole world.



In addition, a person who would like to put forward his or her own thinking must be one owning great courage, which is the indispensable quality if one wants to achieve success. The slogan of Nike goes “just do it”. That is the attitude we should hold and stick to. Say words you want, and do things you like. Avril, the famous pop singer, lives a different life from normal youth. Unlike five brother and sister, she dropped out of school and founded a band. While most girls are busy with nail polish, she practiced guitar day and night. The song “anything but ordinary” was a hit to the music world. This young girl has the courage to follow her heart, and the strength from inside supports her and made her the hottest pop star.



Admittedly, a person who is different from the time probably is not understand by the contemporary. However, as the old saying goes, gold will glitter forever. The famous painter Van Gogh might never thought his painting would be loved by so many people when he was alive. Even though few people wanted to buy his painting, Van Gogh never stop creating. In that time, he is lonely because his style was so different. However, if he had not stuck on his pursuit, there would be no such amazing masterpiece now, such as Starry Night.



People who are different may suffer from misunderstanding and loneliness, but it does not mean that one should not follow his or her heart. Due to the above-mentioned reasons, the times need different voice, and if you want to succeed, try to be a guy different from others.

The passage and the lecture discuss whether the commercial fossil collectors are good. The professor claims that the advantages that commercial fossil collection brings overweight the disadvantages, which obviously contradicts the viewpoint of the passage. In the lecture, the professor uses three specific points to support her contention.

First, even though the passage asserts that private collectors make it hard for public to access the fossil, the professor points out that it is private collector who give fossils more exposure. This is because the public museum and institution do not have enough money to purchase fossil in commercial fossil hunting. However, the private collectors have abundant capital.

In addition, the professor disagree the statement in the passage that fossils in private collector are likely missed out by scientists. According to her, fossils should be scientific identified by scientists before they are bought by private collectors. Thus, by no means will scientist miss out important fossils.

Last, the professor points out that although commercial collectors often destroy valuable fossil, the commercial trading make more fossils to be discovered. The commercial operation provides the capital to dig fossil. It is better because more fossils are found rather than stay undiscovered.

In a nutshell, the professor refuses the standpoint of the passage that the commercial fossil collection brings demerits, and gives out her reason to support private collectors.

Nowadays, it is much easier to achieve success with help from one's family than what is like before

When it comes to factors that contribute to success, people probably think of hard work of oneself and the help from other people. However, once referring to outside help, the help from one’s family seems to be so essential that no one could deny its indispensible role. With the evolvement of the society, I, personally, hold the opinion that it is much easier to achieve success with the help from one’s family than what is like before.

The most important reason is that network is playing a more and more significant role in the modern society, and the network which is based on family is so strong and effective. Take a simple but common situation for example. Just imagine you are the member of a university admission department, and there are two applicant compete for the last admission. One is your nephew and other is a stranger. It may be cruel but true that you would pick your nephew even though the other one is a bit over him. In the chaotic web of network today, there is no doubt that this kind of help does make a big difference.

In addition, besides the importance of network, it is self-evident that even though the rapid peace of modern life, people treasure family more than before, which is an emotion push that drive people to help their family. Blood band is definitely the strongest relationship, under which people are more inclined to spare no effort to help, because they regard helping family as one’s obligation. This kind of obligation feeling put a pressure on people’s mind, and force them to pay more effort to events related to their family.

Admittedly there are other factors contributing to success, such as opportunity, times and so on. What is more, in the highly developed society, it seems to be harder for people to succeed than past, as opportunity is limited while competitors are so many. However, when look around, do you find any opportunity? And ask yourself then would you like to offer help to your family as much as you can? For two answer are both yes, then it cannot deny the common truth that it is more likely to succeed with the help from family than before.

From what has been discussed above, we can safely reach to the conclusion that because of the important role of network and the strong emotion push in modern society, it is easier for people to achieve success with the help of family than it was before.
