　　綜合

　　土星的衛(wèi)星Titan 有3 個unusual features 難以解釋。

　　Reading ：

　　土星的衛(wèi)星， Titan, 和其他的衛(wèi)星有相似之處，但是也有一些不尋常無法解釋的特征。

　　1. unusual orbit 普通的衛(wèi)星運轉(zhuǎn)是circular 環(huán)形的軌道,但是Titan 衛(wèi)星運轉(zhuǎn)時是 elliptical orbit 橢圓軌道。

　　2. massive depression Titan 表層周邊有很多depression and crater 洼地和坑，正常來講，一般是由火山活動和碰撞造成的，但是沒有證據(jù)顯示周邊有火山，碰撞的話也應(yīng)在隨機位置。

　　3. sand dunes Titan 赤道附近有很多沙丘，沙丘的方向一般是和風(fēng)向相符的，但是Titan的沙丘斜面朝東，但是一般表層風(fēng)向確是朝向西的。

　　Listening:

　　這些現(xiàn)象都可以解釋的。

　　1. Titan 不是一個單一的衛(wèi)星，周邊的衛(wèi)星群相互作用，相互影響，就使得它呈現(xiàn)橢圓形軌道。

　　2. 洼地和坑不是火山和碰撞造成的，而是強降雨導(dǎo)致的。

　　3. 沙丘方向和風(fēng)向確實相符，它上面的沙丘確實斜面朝東，那是因為暴風(fēng)改變風(fēng)向把沙吹往東邊的。

　　Sample Answer:

　　The reading raises three unusual features of Titan, which are puzzling. The listening,however, strongly insist that those features are explainable.

　　The first feature mentioned in the reading is its elliptical orbit which is different from thecommon satellites whose orbit is circular. This phenomena is explained by the listeningwhich reminds us that there are other satellites which move around Titan. The nearbysatellites could exert influence on titan, hence leading to the elliptical phenomena.

　　As to the second point, it is believed in the reading that the usual feature of massivedepression, which should have been caused by volcanic eruption, but there is no volcanoon Titan. The listening pushes forward another theory that instead of being caused byvolcanic eruption and collision, the massive depression and crater formed as a result ofstorm. The reading, therefore, is wrong again.

　　Lastly, the reading is of the view that the sand tunes near the Titan?s equator should bein the same direction with the wind direction but the opposite is true. It is admitted inthe listening that the direction of sand tunes is originally in conformity to the winddirection. What?s more, it is true that the top sand tunes point to the east, which is in areverse direction to the wind. But the truth is that under the influence of the storm, itsdirection has been changed. As a result, the last phenomena is also explainable.

　　獨立

　　Topic: Sometimes we are assigned to work in a group on a project. Do you agree or disagree with the following statement? The group will be helped more by person who will be willing to do what other group members want than by person who often strongly nsists that things should be done in a way that is different from what the group wants to do.

　　解題思路： Agree

　　這樣做有助于團隊成員關(guān)系和諧，達成一致。

　　有利于團隊明確的分工，提高整體工作效率。

　　誠然，這樣做的話可能彰顯不出個人獨特之處，但是從團隊整體來講，團隊成員的最終

　　目的都是為了提高工作效率，因此要顧全大局。

　　Sample Answer:

　　As the core power of a group, the group members are obliged to spare no efforts to pushforward the project in progress. However, the members of a group encompass people ofdifferent characteristics, divergent way of thinking and working styles, as a result ofwhich, someone may unconditionally follow the group's orders, while someone maybealways critical about them. As far as I am concerned, the former is more favorable whenconsidering benefiting the whole group.

　　Primarily and undeniably, a higher working efficiency could be achieved if the groupmembers could comply with the whole group?s rules and targets. During the process ofaccomplishing a project, team cooperation is of great significance, which could berealized by the wholehearted dedication of all members with their divergence beingeliminated. Evidently, team cooperation is in direct proportion to the working efficiencyof the group. By contrast, if a group member, when assigned tasks, always goes againstthe whole group?s progressing direction and working targets, a bunch of time will bewasted. What?s worse, direct conflict may arise, which brings forth great obstaclesstanding in the way before the project is started. It is due to such a disagreement withinthe group that exerts side effects on the working efficiency.

　　Apart from working efficiency, another important benefit of choosing a compliant groupmember is all team members will work with greater impetus. Compared with harmony,disagreement never fail to fuel bias and possibly discrimination, hence creating anegative state of mind. Under such circumstance, almost everyone loses the impetus andmotivation to struggle in the group, no matter how ambitious and aggressive they arebefore. Just imagine, an English association is going to conduct an English speakingcontest. Every member of the group is allocated with certain assignment like purchasingrequired necessities, site layout, selecting the contestants and so on, with the purpose ofguaranteeing the smooth progression of the contest. If someone of them refuses toaccept the assignment by arguing that things should be arranged in another way, it mayturn out to be great hazard to the morale of the group especially when others are inagreement with the plans. Needless to say, morale is to a group what soul is tohumankind.

　　I tend to concede that some novel ideas and inspirations may turn out to be new bloodfor the whole group, but that should not be an excuse for not obeying what the majorityof the members insist. Just as an old saying goes: the minority is subject to the majority.Those bearing different considerations should put the collective in the first place.

　　From what has been discussed above, it is safe to draw the conclusion that a memberwilling to do what other group members want is more favorable for a group, not only fora higher working efficiency but also for a greater impetus.
