this part
,
you are allowed 30
minutes to write a short essay on
the
importance of

teachers and students.
You should write
at least 120 words but
no more than180
words.
【参考范文】
It
is universally acknowledged that trust is one of
the most valuable assets for interpersonal
communication.
However, it is not
uncommon to have misunderstanding and generation
gap between teachers and students. with
the current trend of communication
becoming necessary and indispensable in this ever-
changing modern society,
building trust
is of great significance.
In order to
set up the credibility between teachers and
students, on the one hand, as
teachers, we
should
sincerely deal with the
students
’
problems and
difficulties, comprehending their necessities. On
the other hand, as
students, it is
necessary that more understanding and respect
should be given. Becoming good friends to have the
trans-positional consideration each
other can build a harmonious atmosphere.
Only
in
this
way,
would
the
relationship
of
trust
between
teachers
and
students
be established
effectively.
When students
encounter the difficulties and problems, they
would be willing to turn to their respected
teachers,
whereby the education
development in our country could have a further
step.

Questions
26 to 35 are based on the following passage.
When Elon Musk says that
his new priority is using artificial intelligence
to build domestic robots, we should
look forward to the day in admiration.
Mr. Musk is a guy who gets things done.
The founder of two tech companies, Tesla Motors
and SpaceX, is
bringing electric
vehicles to mass market and
26
humans to live on other planets. This
sounds like so much
hot air, but the
near $$13 billion fortune this entrepreneur has
27
comes from
practical achievements rather
than
hypothetical ones.
A lot of clever
people are
28
about artificial intelligence, fearing
that robots will one day become so
29
that they’ll murder all of
us. These fears are mostly
30
: as with hysteria about genetic
modification,
we humans are generally
wise enough to manage these problems with speed
and care.
And just think of how
wonderful it would be if you had a live-in robot.
It could,
31
,
be like having a
babysitter and a nurse
rolled into one--or, if that required
32
intelligence beyond the
power of Mr. Musk’s
imagined
machine, at least someone to chop the
carrots, wash the car and mow the lawn. Once
purchased and
trained, this would allow
the
33
user to save money and time, freeing up
34
space in our
busy lives
to read a good book.
That is why we welcome Mr. Musk’s
latest
35
,
and wish him well. As long as robots add to the
sum
of human happiness, reduce
suffering, and create time
to read
world-class journalism, we should be their fans.
Especially since journalism is one job
robots will never do.

statement

the
information is derived. You may choose

Answer Sheet 2.
In the real world, nobody
cares that you went to an Ivy League school
A)
As
a
high
school
junior,
everything
in
my
life
revolved
around
getting
into
the
right
college.
I
diligently
attended my SAT,
ACT, and Advanced Placement test preparation
courses. I
juggled
(尽力应付)
cross-country
and track schedules, newspaper staff,
and my church’s youth group and drama team. I
didn’t drink, party, or even
do much
dating. The right college, I thought, was one with
prestige, one with a name. It
didn’t
have to be the Ivy
League, but it
needed to be “top school.”
B)
Looking back
now, nine years later, I can’t remember exactly
what it was about these universities that made
them seem so much better. Was it a
curriculum that appeared more rigorous, perhaps?
Or an alumni network that I
hoped
would
open
doors
down
the
line?
Maybe.
“I
do
think
there
are
advantages
to
schools
with
more
recognition,” notes Marybeth Gasman, a
professor of higher education at the University of
Pennsylvania. “I don’t
necessarily
think that’s a reason to go to
one.”
C)
In reflection, my firm belief in the
power of the brand was naive, not to mention a bit
snobby. I quickly passed
over state
schools and southern schools, believing their
curriculums to be automatically inferior to
northeastern or
western counterparts.
Instead, I dreamed of living in New York City and
my parents obliged me with a visit to
New York University’s (NYU) campus.
During the tour, tuition fees were discussed. (NYU
is consistently ranked
one of the
country’s most
expensive schools, with
room and board costs totaling upwards of $$64,000 a
year.) Up
until then, I hadn’t truly
realized just how expensive an education can be.
Over the next few months, I realized not
only could I not afford my dream
school, I couldn’t even afford the ones where I’d
been accepted. City University
of New
York (CUNY), Rutgers University, and Indiana
University were out of reach as were Mississippi
State and
the University of Alabama,
where I would have to pay out-of-state fees.
Further complicating my college search
was
a
flourishing
stack
career
—I
wanted
to
keep
running
but
my
times
weren’t
quite
fast
enough
to
secure
a
scholarship.
D) And so, at
11pm on the night of Georgia State University’s
(GSU) midnight deadline, I applied online.
Rate
d
No.466 overall on
Forbes’ Lists Top Colleges, No. 183 in Research
Universities, and No. 108 in the South, I can’t
say it was
my
top
choice. Still, the track coach had offered me a
walk-on spot, and I actually found the urban
Atlanta campus a decent consolation
prize after New York City.
E)
While it may
have been practical, it wasn’t prestigious, But
here’s the thing: I loved my “
lower-
tier
”
(
低层次
的
)
university.
(I
use
the
term
“low
-
tier”
cautiously,
because
GSU
is
a
well
-regarded
research
institution
that
attracts high quality
professors and faculty from all over the country.)
We are taught to believe that only by going
to the best schools and getting the
best grades can we escape the rat race and build a
better future. But what if
