Choose ONE of the following topics and make a 3-minute (about 400 words) speech. Topic 1 We live in this information age in which people have easy access to cell phones equipped with social networking apps. Some question that it will deteriorate our ability to communicate, but others argue that social media could help those who lack interpersonal skills in real life and give them control over the communication process. What’s your opinion? Do you have any feasible suggestions to those who dread talking to others in public? Topic 2 “Chinese cooking and cuisine no longer serve only for nutrition. They have become an integral part of Chinese culture and civilization,” said Anna Louisa Thompson-Floris, UNESCO’s Assistant Director-General for Strategic Planning. If you were the director of an episode of the show “A Bite of China”, how would you present a local dish from your hometown? And please explain how this dish could embody part of the cultural features of your hometown.

If you had the chance to pick one celebrity to deliver a speech at your university, who would that be? Why would you choose him/her?
A、will have to

One-third of the people in the village are children, and only 60 are over the age of 65. Just under half of the married women in the villagehave accessto modem equipments. This year 28 babies will be bom. Ten people will die, 3 of them for lack of food, 1 from can-cer. Two of the deaths will be of babies bom within the year. With the 28 births and 10 deaths, the population of the village next year will be 1,018. In this village of 1,000 persons, 200 people receive 75 percent of the income; another 200 re-ceive only 2 percent of the income. About one-third have access to clean, safe drinking water. Of the 670 adults in the village, half can not read nor write. The village has a total yearly budget (预算), public and private, of over $3 million-$ 3,000 per person if it is distributed evenly. Of the total $3 million: $ 181,000 goes to weapons and warfare $ 159,000 to education $ 132,000 to health care These weapons are under the control of just 100 of the people. The other 900 are watching them with deep anxiety, wondering whether they can learn to get along together. |

If you were to examine the birth certificate of each soccer player in 200611’s World Cup tournament, you would most likely find a strange thing: excellent soccer players are more likely to have been born in the earlier months of the year than in the later months. Similarly, if you examined the European national youth teams that feed the World Cup and professional ranks, you would find this strange phenomenon to be even more noticeable. What might explain this strange phenomenon? Here are a few guesses: a) certain astrological (占星术的) signs bring superior soccer skills; b) winter-born babies tend to have higher oxygen capacity, which increases soccer staying power; c) soccer-mad parents are more likely to conceive children in springtime, at the annual peak of soccer craze; d) none of the above. Anders Ericsson, a 58-year-old psychology professor at Florida State University, says he believes strongly in “none of the above.” Ericsson grew up in Sweden, and studied nuclear engineering until he realized he would have more opportunity to conduct his own research if he switched to psychology. About 30 years ago, he conducted his first experiment on memory: training a person to hear and then repeat a random series of numbers. “With the first subject, after about 20 hours of training, his digit span had risen from 7 to 20,” Ericsson recalls. “He kept improving, and after about 200 hours of training he had risen to over 80 numbers.” This experiment and his later research indicated that memory itself is not determined by genes. Although people may exhibit inborn differences in their abilities to memorize, those differences are less important than how well each person “encodes” the information. And the best way to learn how to encode information meaningfully, Ericsson determined, was a process known as intentional practice. Intentional practice doesn’t mean simply repeating a task. It involves setting specific goals, obtaining immediate feedback and concentrating as much on technique as on result. Ericsson and his colleagues have studied different expert performers from various professions, including soccer. They found that expert performers are nearly always made, not born. 15. What is the main idea of the passage?
A、Excellent soccer players are more likely to be born in the earlier months of the year.
B、Good memory is not determined by genes.
C、People have inborn differences in their abilities to memorize.
D、Talents are nearly always nurtured, not born.
