①A course that has impressed you most in college;

②A classmate of yours who has influenced you most in college;

③A campus activity that has benefited most.

The Campus Activity that Has Benefited Me Most

As a coin has two sides,when it comes to “what campus activity that has 

benefited you most”,different people may have different opinions.As far as I 

am concerned,it is the psychological composition competition that has 

benefited me most.

There are,to my mind,plenty of shaping factors,among which,the following 

ones are particularly worth mentioning.One of the most valuable one is it is 

the field that I like.I can find a place to say something,either to the world or to myself,which will make me feel relax,get a good mood and enjoy myself.

Another fundamental one which should not be neglected is I can appreciate 

others’ merits and find my own weakness,and then make up for it.Last but not least,I can find people who have the same thinking and interest with me,and 

become friends.Take myself for instance,it is in the psychological composition competition that I find my soul mate.

Judging from the reams of evidence,it is safe for me to conclude that 

psychological composition competition is the campus activity that has 

benefited me most.If it had not been for it,I could not have enjoyed myself so much.

范文译文

正如一块硬币具有两面性一样，当问到“什么校园活动让你最受益”的时候，不同的人会有不同的观点。就我而言，我认为使我最受益的活动是心理征文比赛。

在我看来，有很多原因让我形成这个观点。其中，下面这些原因是最值得一提的。首先，也是最有价值的是因为这是我喜欢的领域。在这里我可以找到一个地方来倾吐自己的心声，可能是对世界的，也可能是对自己的。这样我就会觉得很轻松，有一个好的心情，并享受自己的生活。另外一个不能忽视的重要原因是，在这里我能欣赏到别人的优点，发现自己的缺点并进行弥补。最后，我可以在这个比赛中找到和我有同样的思想和兴趣的人，并成为好朋友。就拿我自己来说，我就是在心理征文比赛中找到了自己的知己。

根据上面提出的证据，我得出“心理征文比赛使我最受益”这个结论是很合理的。要是没有这个活动，我不能如此的热爱我的生活。

【短文理解听力原文】

Passage 1

Body language, especially gestures, varies among cultures. For example, a nod of the head means “yes” to most of us. But in Bulgaria and Greece a nod means “no” and a shake of the head means “yes”.

Likewise, a sign for OK, forming a circle with our forefinger and thumb, means zero in France and money in Japan.

Waving or pointing to an Arab business person would be considered rude because that is how Arabs call their dogs over.

Folded arms signal pride in Finland, but disrespect in Fiji.

The number of bows that the Japanese exchange on greeting each other, as well as the length and the depth of the bows, signals the social status each party feels towards each other.

Italians might think you’re bored unless you use a lot of gestures during discussions.

Many American men sit with their legs crossed with one ankle resting over the opposite knee. However, this would be considered an insult in Muslim countries, where one will never show the sole of the foot to a guest.

Likewise, Americans consider eye contact very important, often not trusting someone who is afraid to look at you in the eye. But in Japan and many Latin American countries, keeping the eyes lowered is a sign of respect. To look a partner full in the eye is considered a sign of ill-breeding and is felt to be annoying.

Q16: What gesture do Bulgarians and Greeks use to express negative responses?

Q17: What is likely to offend Arab business people?

Q18: What is considered to be impolite in Muslim countries?

Passage 2

Three years ago, Pantcha Maya, her husband and five children lived in a shaky flat in southern Nepal. Every morning the parents walked the dirt roads seeking work in the rice fields. After the harvest, the family went begging for food. the Mayas own a small paper-bag-making company. With the money they’ve earned, the Mayas have purchased a small plot on which they grow vegetables and raise goats for additional income. In fact, the family has save 68 dollars. This is remarkable in a country with an average annual income of 160 dollars.

Grace Mumbka, her husband and eight children once lived hand-to-mouth in Cameroon. Today the Mumbkas run a clothing-manufacturing business and own a home. They are able to send their children to school at a costly annual sum of 2,800 dollars. The idea of starting her own business seemed impossible to Pillar Mulyaa, a poor woman form Atahualpa, high in Ecuador’s Andes Mountains. Today, however, she’s one of the proud owners of a bakery specializing in sweet cakes.

These businesses are part of an economic revolution sweeping the developing world. The sponsor is the Trickle Up Program, a non-profit organization founded by New Yorkers Glen and Mildred Leet. This organization offers people like

the Maya, the Mubkas and the Moyas modest 100-dollar grants (资助). Since 1979, the program has helped over 130,000 of the world’s neediest people in 90 countries win small life-saving victories over poverty. And it has turned conventional thinking about foreign aid on its head.

Q 19. What do we learn about Pantcha Maya’s family over three years ago?

Q 20. What is the Mumbkas able to do now?

Q 21. What does the speaker mainly talk about?

Passage 3

Take care of your teeth and your teeth will take care of you. Your teeth are a living part of your body. They have nerves and blood vessels. Diseased teeth can cause pain, die and fall out. Plaque (牙斑) is the main enemy of healthy teeth. Everyone has plaque. It is a sticky, colorless film that coats the teeth. Plaque is always forming on the teeth, especially at the gum (牙龈) line. If plaque is not removed, it builds up and gets under the gum line. Plaque that is left on the teeth for some time hardens. The result is tooth decay and gum disease. The

bacteria in plaque live on sugar. They change sugar into acids, which break down the tooth’s harder outer covering. If left untreated, decay goes deeper and deeper into the tooth. After a while, the decay reaches the nerves and blood vessels of the inner tooth. By the time this happens, the tooth has probably started to ache.

In addition to tooth decay, there’re also gum diseases to watch out for. The bacteria and plaque make poisons that attack the gums. Small pockets form around the teeth. The pockets trap more bacteria and food particles. Finally, the bone supporting the teeth is attacked and starts to shrink. Teeth become loose and may fall out. Adults lose most teeth this way.

Keep your mouth healthy. When you brush your teeth, do a good job.

Q22. What does the speaker say about our teeth?

Q 23. What does the speaker say about plaque?

Q 24. Why is sugar harmful to teeth?

Q 25. What causes adults to lose most of their teeth according to the speaker?

A Campus Activity That Has Benefited Me Most

It is generally accepted that activities in university are very colorful. As for me, a campus activity that has benefited me most is the speech contest held when I was a freshman. It was about social responsibility.

The speech contest impresses me most with the following points. Firstly, the theme of the speech

contest, relating to social responsibility, is very meaningful and my attending this contest really helps me accumulate profound knowledge regarding the subject. Additionally, my eloquence and critical thinking ability are remarkably improved and my stage fright is overcome. Most importantly, I made the acquaintance with one of my most valuable friends.

Generally speaking, this speech contest can be a milestone on my way of growing up as it is from then that I get the courage to speak in public without being nervous.
