Q2:阅读:【学生建议】bring back the bell 学校最近收到一笔钱一个学生建议把这些钱用来重修 bell 。

理由:1. 它是学校的象征;

2月23日托福阅读真题回忆

Passage1:Early life forms and Earth's atmosphere

早期细菌进化,为后面地球的发展和复杂有机体的发展奠定了基础。地球早期没有氧气,有 Methane 和 carbon dioxide,帮助地球 keep warm,那会太阳没有提供足够的热量。对比现在地球的各种气体成分。提到早期动物 confined to ocean 的原因,没有 protective layer against UV radiation,海洋中的水可以提供保护。

Passage2:Agriculture in Early modern world讲到corn 和rice 在China 的increasing population 提供了大量的食物。在 paddies 可以反复种植 rice,一年中可以多次丰收。后来传到欧洲国家,为欧洲国家不断上升的人口提供了充足的食物,否则,就得依靠提高 5 倍 wheat 的量来供应人口。举例 England,但是发展到后来,人口不断增加,没法再满足供应了。

Passage3:How birds acquire their songs

对比 birds in isolation 和 birds reared in the wild 的歌声,birds in isolation 只会唱标准的歌曲,birda in wild 歌曲有 dialect ,根据这点来观察 Learning 和 recall 的重要性。做了个实验,在 sensitive learning period 之后,把 birds in isolation 放在笼子里,第二年他们只会唱标准歌曲,但是对比 birds in wild, 他们记得学习的内容,还是会唱带有 dialect 的歌曲。

Passage4:植物学

森林数量的变化对大平原的影响

有的科学家认为细菌像是灰尘一样漂浮在空中,主要介绍细菌的形态和状态。有的科学家认为细菌不会单独存在,只有在有营养存在的情况下才会存在。

Passage4:植物学

naturalism and nature

文章一开始讲了两个画家比赛,一个画被鸟误以为是真的,飞过去了,另一个被对手画家误以为窗帘是真的。结果分成胜负。后面主要讲了艺术家是描绘植物时候,不仅仅像摄影师一样,画的更逼真就好。要有象征意义,还要反映文化背景,内在的理解。给了郁金香画的例子,反映某个阶段郁金香稀有的品种很贵,有钱人才有的,画里面就反映出这样的特征

Passage5:the buff in America

内容回忆:

美洲土著印第安人猎杀北美野牛

主要讲一个物种数量下降的原因。一开始人们没有大量捕杀,后面选择性捕捉雌性,因为肉更美味。当地人捕捉并不是主要原因,市场需要增加,加工技术改进(可以用动物的皮来做工业用的BELT)。政府想采取措施,但误以为数量没有下降,只是藏着地下了。结果措施不奏效,问题仍然存在。

Passage6:the water supply in Venice

内容回忆:文章关于威尼斯缺水和水污染的问题。早期往水里倒东西,发出各种发出臭味。人口增加,水不够,后面政府想办法治理。见了一种存水设置,不同于水井,存水量大,主要是雨水。有钱人有自己的,一般人可以租。最后有效解决了问题。

L7:话题分类:生物

内容回忆:古生物鱼

L8:话题分类:天文学

内容回忆:瑞立散射,讲可见光的散射,讨论为什么天空是蓝色、红色、黄色的。

知识补充:

Rayleigh scattering

由于瑞利散射的强度与波长四次方成反比,所以太阳光谱中波长较短的蓝紫光比波长较长得红光散射更明显,而短波中又以蓝光能量最大,所以在雨过天晴或秋高气爽时(空中较粗微粒比较少,以分子散射为主),在大气分子的强烈散射作用下,蓝色光被散射至弥漫天空,天空即呈现蔚蓝色。另外,由于大气密度随高度急剧降低,大气分子的散射效应相应减弱,天空的颜色也随高度由蔚蓝色变为青色(约 8 公里)、暗青色(约 11 公里)、暗紫色(约 13 公里)、黑紫色(约21公里),再往上,空气非常稀薄,大气分子的散射效应极其微弱,天空便为黑暗所湮没。可以说,瑞利散射的结果,减弱了太阳投射到地表的能量。

L9:话题分类:地质

内容回忆:华盛顿一峡谷形成的理论猜想。

老托福阅读真题及答案解析

老托福阅读真题及答案解析 托福从听、说、读、写四方面进行英语能力全面考核。托福频道为大家提供了这四个方面的资料,希望对大家有所帮助。 Aviculturists, people who raise birds for commercial sale, have not yet learned how to simulate the natural incubation of parrot eggs in the wild. They continue to look for better ways to increase egg production and to improve chick survival rates. When parrots incubate their eggs in the wild, the temperature and humidity of the nest are controlled naturally. Heat is transferred from the bird's skin to the top portion of the eggshell, leaving the sides and bottom of the egg at a cooler temperature. This temperature gradient may be vital to successful hatching. Nest construction can contribute to this temperature gradient. Nests of loosely arranged sticks, rocks, or dirt are cooler in temperature at the bottom where the egg contacts the nesting material. Such nests also act as humidity regulators by allowing rain to drain into the bottom sections of the nest so that the eggs are not in direct contact with the water. As the water that collects in the bottom of the nest evaporates, the water vapor rises and is heated by the incubating bird, which adds significant humidity to the incubation environment. In artificial incubation programs, aviculturists remove eggs from the nests of parrots and incubate them under laboratory conditions. Most commercial incubators heat the eggs fairly evenly from top to bottom, thus ignoring the bird's method of natural incubation, and perhaps reducing the viability and survivability of the hatching chicks. When incubators are not used, aviculturists sometimes suspend wooden boxes outdoors to use as nests in which to place eggs. In areas where weather can become cold after eggs are laid, it is very important to maintain a deep foundation of nesting material to act as insulator against the cold bottom of the box. If eggs rest against the wooden bottom in extremely cold weather conditions, they can become chilled to a point where the embryo can no longer survive. Similarly, these boxes should be protected from direct sunlight to avoid high temperatures that are also fatal to the growing embryo. Nesting material should be added in sufficient amounts to avoid both extreme temperature situations mentioned above and assure that the eggs have a soft, secure place to rest. 1. What is the main idea of the passage ? (A) Nesting material varies according to the parrots' environment. (B) Humidity is an important factor in incubating parrots' eggs. (C) Aviculturists have constructed the ideal nest box for parrots. (D) Wild parrots' nests provide information useful for artificial incubation. 2. The word "They" in line 2 refers to

托福(TOEFL)考试阅读模拟试题(4)

托福(TOEFL)考试阅读模拟试题(4) Questions 11-20 Philosophy in the second half of the 19th century was based more on biology and history than on mathematics and physics. Revolutionary thought drifted away from metaphysics and epistemology and shifted more towards ideologies in science, politics, and sociology. Pragmatism became the most vigorous school of thought in American philosophy during this time, and it continued the empiricist tradition of grounding knowledge on experience and stressing the inductive procedures of experimental science. The three most important pragmatists of this period were the American philosophers Charles Peirce (1839-1914), considered to be the first of the American pragmatists, William James (1842-1910), the first great American psychologist, and John Dewey (1859-1952), who further developed the pragmatic principles of Peirce and James into a comprehensive system of thought that he called “experimental naturalism”, or “instrumentalism”. Pragmatism was generally critical of traditional western philosophy, especially the notion that there are absolute truths and absolute values. In contrast, Josiah Royce (1855-1916), was a leading American exponent of idealism at this time, who believed in an absolute truth and held that human thought and the external world were unified. Pragmatism called for ideas and theories to be tested in practice, assessing whether they produced desirable or undesirable results. Although pragmatism was popular for a time in Europe, most agree that it epitomized the American faith in know-how and practicality, and the equally American distrust of abstract theories and ideologies. Pragmatism is best understood in its historical and cultural context. It arose during a period of rapid scientific advancement, industrialization, and material progress; a time when the theory of evolution suggested to many thinkers that humanity and society are in a perpetual state of progress. This period also saw a decline in traditional religious beliefs and values. As a result, it became necessary to rethink fundamental ideas about values, religion, science, community, and individuality. Pragmatists regarded all theories and institutions as tentative hypotheses and solutions.

托福口语真题分析与范文

2017年01月07日托福口语考题回忆 Task 1 The university wants to provide student more entertainments and three choices provided below, which do you prefer and why. l A theater performance by the student actors l A concert provided by professional musician l A lecture from a professor Sample Answer: Well, as a student, I will choose a theater performance by the student actors. For one thing, this kind of activity will improve their cooperation skills. To be more specific, a theater performance includes the whole process of organizing, participating, and promoting an event. Whether the student director or the actor take the responsibility to achieve his/her duty, so this is a great opportunity for them to learn how to deal with other people. Moreover, a performance could greatly inspire them to be more creative. I mean, in order to make a good show, students may have lots of difficulties to cope with, so they have to be flexible to face any emergency. As a result, they may come up with lots of new ideas to make it. Because of these two reasons, I believe this is the best choice. (140 words) Task 2 Friends may disagree with each other, and still maintain friendship. Do you agree with or disagree with this idea, why Sample Answer: Of course I agree with this idea. Firstly people are bound to be different. We have various family background as well as education background even though we are friends. So it is quite naturally that there come up different ideas toward one problem. For example I like watching movie in the movie theatre while my best friend Amy hate sitting in the dark place. But I never require her to go with me; we are still very close friends. Also, the friend who holds a different attitude with me sometimes could inspire me to think from another way. Maybe a very sharp discussion can lead me to an inspiring idea. After all, the experiences and knowledge of one person is limited. For me, I like the friend who are differ from me. (132 words) Task 3 阅读 标题:Create a Student Magazine 原因1: Students spend a lot of time on their paper, and some of them have high quality. So we need a magazine to publish those good quality papers.

2019托福阅读:模拟试题及答案解析(6) 【托福】 Although only 1 person in 20 in the Colonial period lived in a city, the cities had a disproportionate influence on the development of North America. They were at the cutting edge of social change. It was in the cities that the elements that can be associated with modern capitalism first appeared — the use of money and commercial paper in place of barter, open competition in place of social deference and hierarchy, with an attendant rise in social disorder, and the appearance of factories using coat or water power in place of independent craftspeople working with hand tools. "The cities predicted the future," wrote historian Gary. B. Nash, "even though they were but overgrown villages compared to the great urban centers of Europe, the Middle East and China." Except for Boston, whose population stabilized at about 16,000 in 1760, cities grew by exponential leaps through the eighteenth century. In the fifteen years prior to the outbreak of the War for independence in 1775, more than 200,000 immigrants arrived on North American shores. This meant that a population the size of Boston was arriving every year, and most of it flowed into the port cities in the Northeast. Philadelphia's population nearly doubted in those years, reaching about 30,000 in 1774, New York grew at almost the same rate, reaching about 25,000 by 1775. The quality of the hinterland dictated the pace of growth of the cities. The land surrounding Boston had always been poor farm country, and by the mid-eighteenth century it

As the water that collects in the bottom of the nest evaporates, the water vapor rises and is heated by the incubating bird, which adds significant humidity to the incubation environment. In artificial incubation programs, aviculturists remove eggs from the nests of parrots and incubate them under laboratory conditions. Most commercial incubators heat the eggs fairly evenly from top to bottom, thus ignoring the bird's method of natural incubation, and perhaps reducing the viability and survivability of the hatching chicks. When incubators are not used, aviculturists sometimes suspend wooden boxes outdoors to use as nests in which to place eggs. In areas where weather can become cold after eggs are laid, it is very important to maintain a deep foundation of nesting material to act as insulator against the cold bottom of the box. If eggs rest against the wooden bottom in extremely cold weather conditions, they can become chilled to a point where the embryo can no longer survive. Similarly, these boxes should be protected from direct sunlight to avoid high temperatures that are also fatal to the growing embryo. Nesting material should be added in sufficient amounts to avoid both extreme temperature situations mentioned above and assure that the eggs have a soft, secure place to rest. 1. What is the main idea of the passage (A) Nesting material varies according to the parrots' environment. (B) Humidity is an important factor in incubating parrots' eggs. (C) Aviculturists have constructed the ideal nest box for parrots. (D) Wild parrots' nests provide information useful for artificial incubation.
