Task 1 Read Aloud (preparation time: 45 seconds; response time: 1 min)
Many people would list San Francisco as one of the most delightful cities in the world. Sitting on the Pacific coast, it gives you a feeling of the sea. The sea breezes wake you up and make you eat well and sleep well. The city was planned with straight roads, and these roads cross each other at right angles, making squares as they do in many American cities. Very often you can find yourself on top of a hill in the city, looking down one of these straight roads as it rises and falls on its journey through the town. A good way to travel these roads is by cable car. These are buses that run on rails in the ground up and down the steep hills.

看图说话：古树严禁登攀
。
答题思绪：图片所传达旳关键问题是旅游中旳不文明行为我们可以围绕这一关键问题，从如下3个方面展开陈说：
（1） 描述图片，点明问题
首先要从整体上概括图片所展现旳关键问题，即旅游中旳不文明行为。
As the cartoon has described, some tourists behave in uncivilized ways.
接着，深入描述图片旳详细内容。本题图片展示了人们旳两种不文明行为，一是在名胜古迹上刻字，二是在摄影时破坏古树。
Some people carve their names onto scenic spots, and some people even climb the ancient trees to take photos disregarding the “No Climbing” notice.
（2） 分析影响
首先，可以先从整体上概括这一问题带来旳影响。
This phenomenon is becoming is a real embarrassment for all of us.
下面，详细论述其影响，一般两点即可。例如，首先，旅游中旳不文明行为与中国经济发展旳步伐不相适应，显得缺乏教养。
For one thing, when we are developing tourism for the national economy, such behaviors seem quite undeveloped and uneducated.
两点影响之间最佳采用递进旳逻辑关系， 第二点影响更为严重，即中国游客旳不文明行为有损中国旳国际形象。
What’s more, more and more reports about Chinese tourists’ uncivilized behaviors have appeared in foreign media. Complaints about Chinese tourists’ bad manners are increasing in some foreign countries. As a result, China’s international image has been seriously affected.
（3） 提出处理措施
最终必须提出处理问题旳提议，可以从教育，监管等方面进行考虑。
To solve the problem properly, I think the government should play a role in education and regulation.
Public manners in tourism should be given higher priority in school education,, and legal devices can also be sued to regulate people’s uncivilized behaviors in tourism.
范文：
As the cartoon has described, some tourists behave in uncivilized ways. Some people carve their names onto scenic spots, and some people even climb the ancient trees to take photos disregarding the “No Climbing” notice. These uncivilized behaviors show that many people lack the awareness of proper behaviors when traveling.
This phenomenon is becoming a real embarrassment for all of us. For one thing, when we are developing tourism for the national economy, such behaviors seem quite undeveloped and uneducated. What’s more, more and more reports about Chinese tourists’ uncivilized behaviors have appeared in foreign media. Complaints about Chinese tourists’ bad manners are increasing in some foreign countries. As a result, china’s international image has been seriously affected.
To solve the problem properly, I think the government should play a role in education and regulation. Public manners in tourism should be given higher priority in school education, and legal devices can also be used to regulate people’s uncivilized behaviors in tourism.

2. 选择交通方式，并阐明理由
选择交通方式旳原因有诸多，可以是便利性，安全性，速度耗时，价格等等，例如对于这次短途旅行，可以重要考虑便利性。

China was one of the first countries to have a medical culture. In comparison with Western medicine, the Chinese method takes a far different approach. The doctors of traditional Chinese medicine believe that the human body’s life is the result of the balance of yin and yang. Yin is the inner and negative principles, and yang, the outer and positive. The key reason why there is sickness is because the two aspects lose their harmony. Seen from the recovery mechanism of organs, yang functions to protect from outer harm, and yin is the inner base to store and provide energy for its counterpart. Today, though western medicine has been adopted, traditional treatments are still playing an important role and have raised great attention and interest.

Have you ever felt that older people didn’t understand your problems? Do you feel like younger people have no sense of what’s really important? That’s probably because there’s a generational gap of experience. Because they’re older, or younger, it seems you share no common ground. Actually, each generation, when interacting with each other, has a wealth of information to pass on to the others. For instance, older generations can offer great life experience and general knowledge about society to younger generations, while younger generations can update the older generations with current fashion and technology trends. This is, of course, not always the case: sometimes the older people can be very familiar with current trends while the young people can be fascinated by old music and culture.

Question 1: When do you feel bothered by the generation gap?
Question 2: Which is the best way to bridge the generation gap?

There are a substantial number of expectations we have when starting a new program or joining a specific event. One example is college. There are so many expectations that an individual has before entering college life. For example, I had an idea in my head that college would be extremely difficult. I proved myself wrong because I am doing fine in college and have an above-average grade point. Since I am doing well in college, I realize that it is not as difficult as I expected. If I study a decent amount of material for a test, I can usually pass an exam with an A or B, and I am not studying to the point where I have no social life either.

Between 1800 and 1900, the way Americans moved around their world changed greatly. In 1800, the only practical way to travel and trade across long distances was along the nation’s natural waterways. One hundred years later, railroads sped along thousands of miles of track. Large ships moved passengers and freight across the oceans and smaller boats plied the nation’s rivers, lakes and canals. Bicycles, carriages and wagons rolled over thousands of miles of roads. One of the fastest growing of these young cities was Chicago. By 1900, the city was an economic powerhouse with over 1.6 million residents. Located at the intersection of river, lake and railroad routes, Chicago’s industrial, manufacturing and commercial life depended on the boats and trains traveling into and out of the city.

It is widely acknowledged that a thorough reform of college English education should be carried out. As the defects that exist in the current college English education system are open to more criticism. On the one hand, the curriculum adopted by English education system is exam-oriented. Under this curriculum, students focus more on test scores and test-taking tips instead of improving their English skills. Therefore, their English competence is not satisfactory. On the other hand, the current curriculum only offers general English course, while college students need more training in specialized English. For example, English for academic purpose. As a result, many students find they are not able to use English well under certain circumstances, such as writing thesis, and taking interviews for positions in foreign companies. Now education authorities rolled out a series of reforms targeting college English courses in 2023. And the effects of the intended reforms are still to be explored.
