托福口语TPO37 Task3(听力+阅读+题目):Room Phones Are Unnecessary
Reading Part:
Room Phones Are Unnecessary
As part of the cost of student housing,students playto have phones in their dormitory rooms. I thinkthis is unnecessary, and the university shouldremove the phones from student's rooms. Roomphones are not needed since students all havephones we can use to make calls instead. Removing the room phones would also have a costbenefit for students,since we would save money if we didn't have to pay the cost of phoneservice for the rooms.
listening 部分:
W: Hey Jimmy! Did you read this ?
M: I did, yeah. What do you think about it ?
W: I don't know. I don't think it'd be a very goodidea.
M: Oh yeah? But it's true that a lot of us have our own phones.
W: Yeah , but it's good to have both. The service we get with our own phones isn't alwaysreliable. Maybe it' s because there're a lot of hills around here, but my service doesn't workthat well in this area. A lot of times calls get cut off where the reception isn't good. I can't hearthe person on the other line.
M: Yeah, I've had some friends say that too actually.
W: So it's good to have a backup option; something we can use if our own phones aren'tworking.
M: I see what you mean,but when you think of the money...
W: Well f I don't buy his argument there either because I don't know if you've noticed this onthe housing bill we get from the university, but right now we only pay per call.
M: Oh really?
W: Yeah,so if you don't make many calls, you don't pay much. I mean, if you use it a lot ofcourse you'll pay more, but students can avoid that if they just avoid using it as much aspossible.
M: Oh , I see. Ok...
W: So, I think they should just keep it the way it is now.

托福口语TPO37 Task4(听力+阅读+题目):Communal Nutrition
Reading Part:
Communal Nutrition
Some kinds of social insects live in large groups orcolonies in which different members of the colonyhave different tasks to keep the colony runningsmoothly. Some members of the colony areresponsible for providing appropriate food for theentire colony. These insects typically practice communal nutrition. They gather differentkinds of food and bring it to the nest to be shared by all members of the colony. Theyinstinctively adjust and regulate the food they provide to meet the particular nutritionalneeds of the different members of the colony at any given time.
listening part :
Ok, so here's a good example of this among ants. Ants live together in these large nests and certainants, the forager ants,have a particular job to do. They go out each day to look for food items; leaves, seeds, fruit, things like that and then these ants bring them back to the nest, so all the otherants can eat them. Now, the forager ants don't just bring back whatever they may happen tofind. They bring back different kinds of food . For example, adult ants normally like to eatthings that are rich in sugar because they need energy to carry on other activities in the nest, so at a time when the colony is composed mostly of adult ants, the forager ants look forpieces of fruit and other sugar - rich items. They bring these back to the nest for the adult antsto eat to get the energy they need, but there is a time of the year when baby ants are born. Now, the baby ants need a different kind of food. They need food that will help them grow intoadults, so their food needs to be rich in protein. So now the forager ants do somethingdifferent. They start to gather more food items that are rich in protein, like certain types ofleaves or mushrooms. This way the young ants get the protein they need to help them grow.
Question:
Using the example of ants, explain the concept ofcommunal nutrition.
托福口语TPO37 Task6(听力+题目):Art History Class
Listen part
So last class we were talking a bit about the historyof photography and as I was saying, with theinvention of the camera in the mid to late 1800s, for the first time people were able to record realisticimages. Up until then, painting, portraits, landscapes, were the way that realistic images wererecorded; the image of a person's face, the paintingof a mountain range, but with the invention of the camera, now there was this new piece oftechnology; this machine that took realistic images and this had an enormous effect onpainting. One effect was that painters began using photographs as a tool; a tool to help thempaint more realistically. Before the camera, it was extremely difficult to realistically depict amoving object in a painting, but now photography was able to capture fleeting moments; freeze them in time and painters were able to use these photographs as a basis for theirpaintings. For example, the legs of a horse as its running. Photography could now capture theexact position of a horse's legs in midair, which a painter could use to more realistically create apainting of horses galloping . Photography also affected painting in a more conceptual way. The fact that cameras could now perfectly record realistic images led some painters to changetheir style; to stop painting realistically and adopt a more abstract way of painting. Anabstract style enabled painters to contrast their art with photography, to set their art apartfrom the art of photography. They didn't want their paintings to look anything like photographs. They wanted their art to be more imaginative, more abstract. For example, if a painter werepainting people f he or she might not use natural skin tones for the skin and instead paint thepeople's skin unnatural colors, like green, purple, or blue, which of course is not realistic.
Question:
Using points and examples from the lecture, explaintwo ways that photography affected painting.
