7、dership and worldwide cooperation play important roles in the protection of energy resources.Evidence: OPEC is one of the best examples. OPEC, the Organization of Petroleum Exporting Countries, is an international organization of eleven developing countries that are heavily reliant on oil revenues a
8、s their main source of income. Since oil revenues are so vital for the economic development of these nations, they aim to bring stability and harmony to the oil market by adjusting their oil output to help ensure a balance between supply and demand. In the long run, the stabilized out-put help to ce

Factors other than international leadership and world wide cooperation have driven individual nations to conserve energy. These countri
10、es conserve energy purely for their own benefit in the future.Evidence:Most nations in Europe have developed and used automobiles that are highly energy efficient.Japan is a country naturally with nearly no energy resources, so it make great effort to conserve energy for future generations. An famou
11、s case is that Japan once brought crude oil from other countries and buried it under the sea .The speaker asserts that an international effort is needed to preserve the worlds energy resources for future generations. While individual nations, like people, are at times willing to make voluntary sacri
12、fices for the benefit of others, my view is that international coordination is nevertheless necessary in light of the strong propensity of nations to act selfishly, and because the problem is international in scope.The main reason why an international effort is necessary is that, left to their own d
13、evices, individual nations, like people, will act according to their short-term motives and self-interest. The mere existence of military weapons indicates that self-interest and national survival are every nations prime drivers. And excessive consumption by industrialized nations of natural resourc
14、es they know to be finite, when alternatives are at hand demonstrates that self-interest and short-sightedness extend to the use of energy resources as well. Furthermore, nations, like people, tend to rationalize their own self-serving policies and actions. Emerging nations might argue, for example,
15、 that they should be exempt from energy conservation because it is the industrialized nations who can better afford to make sacrifices and who use more resources in the first place.Another reason why an international effort is required is that other problems of an international nature have also requ
16、ired global cooperation. For example, has each nation independently recognized the folly of nuclear weapons proliferation and voluntarily disarmed? No: only by way of an international effort, based largely on coercion of strong leaders against detractors, along with an appeal to self-interest, have
17、we made some progress. By the same token, efforts of individual nations to thwart international drug trafficking have proven largely futile, because efforts have not been internationally based. Similarly, the problem of energy conservation transcends national borders in that either all nations must
18、cooperate, or all will ultimately suffer.In conclusion, nations are made up of individuals who, when left unconstrained, tend to act in their own self-interest and with short-term motives. In light of how we have dealt, or not dealt, with other global problems, it appears that an international effor

Giving one person central authority and responsibility for a project or task is not a
20、n effective way to get work done.”To what extent do you agree or disagree with the opinion expressed above? Support your views with reasons and/or specific examples drawn from your own work or school experiences, your observations, or your reading.“所有的团体和组织都应该作为一个每个人都参与决定、分享责任和义务的团队来运作。给予一个人关于一个项目和行
21、动的集中的权威和责任不是完成工作的有效方式。 ” 1. For groups and organizations that are stable, it is reasonable to have a flat organizational structure. 2. For groups and organizations that are always confronted with emergencies, it is always better to give one certain person central authority and responsibility. 3. It
22、is hard to say that one structure is necessarily better than the other. They all have advantages and disadvantages. And it is a case-by-case discussion.1， Admittedly, 在团队中，每个人都应该起到积极的作用 take positive action。责任和义务的 share 可以激发每个人更加主动 motivate the members creativity and initiative. 比方说，many companies l
23、et the employees to buy shares and stocks. 2， 但是，这样不是说，everyone should be given the power to make the final decision. 首先，天性是自私的。In many circumstances, the personal goal may be different from or even contrary to the goal of the group. 如果任由每个人作出决定，很可能作出相反的，产生很多矛盾。incompatible conflict. 比如企业中，每个员工都想争取最

Th
25、esis sentence: it is true that team work is the most familiar functional way that adopted by many groups and organizations. It is also true that every team member should share responsibilities and duties within the team. However, it is hardly true that the absence of central authority that enable ev
26、erybody to make decisions is an effective way to get work done. View1:compared with giving the responsibility for a task to one authoritative person, the sharing of responsibilities and duties among team members is a more effective way to get things done.Evidence: the allocated responsibility and du
27、ties give workers the feeling of being important and necessary that motivated them to fulfill their work.The fact that anyone who dose not accomplish his or her assigned work thus affect the whole progress of the project could be easily detected, gives the necessary pressure to workers that guarante
28、e the efficiency thus the completion of the progect.View2: the claim that the everybody decision making structure rather than central authority is a more effective way to get things down is unwarranted.Evidence: Everybody makes decisions totally no decisions.Not everyone has acquired the essential a
29、bilities such as thorough analysis and foresighted prediction to make decisions.Which is a more productive method of performing a group task: allowing all group members to share in the decision making, duties and responsibilities, or appointing one member to make decisions, delegate duties and take
30、responsibility? The speakers opinion is that the first method is always the best one. In my view, however, each of these alternatives is viable in certain circumstances, as illustrated by two very different examples.A jury in a criminal trial is good example of a group in which shared decision-makin
31、g, duties, and responsibility is the most appropriate and effective way to get the job done. Each member of the jury is on equal footing with the others. While one person is appointed to head the jury, his or her function is to act as facilitator, not as leader. To place ultimate authority and respo
32、nsibility on the facilitator would essentially be to appoint a judge, and to thereby defeat the very purpose of the jury system.By way of contrast, a trauma unit in a hospital is a case in which one individual should assume responsibility, delegate duties and make decisions. In trauma units, split-s
33、econd decisions are inherently part of the daily routine, and it is generally easier for one person to make a quick decision than for a team to agree on how to proceed. One could argue that since decisions in trauma units are typically life-and-death ones, leaving these decisions to one person is to
34、o risky. However, this argument ignores the crucial point that only the most experienced individuals should be trusted with such a burden and with such power; leaving decisions to inexperienced group members can jeopardize a patients very life.In conclusion, I agree that in some situations the best
35、way to accomplish a task is through teamwork-sharing responsibility, duties and decision making. However, in other situations, especially those where quick decisions are necessary or where individual experience is critical, the most effective means is for one individual to serve as leader and assume
36、 ultimate responsibility for completing the job.8. “For hundreds of years, the monetary system of most countries has been based on the exchange of metal coins and printed pieces of paper. However, because of recent developments in technology, the international community should consider replacing the
37、 entire system of coins and paper with a system of electronic accounts of credits and debits.”Discuss the extent to which you agree or disagree with the opinion stated above. Support your views with reasons and/or examples from your own experience, observations, or reading.“几百年来，大多数国家的货币制度建立在金属硬币和打印
38、的纸币的交换的基础之上。但是，因为最近技术的发展，国际共同体应该考虑将整个硬币和纸币的系统用存款和贷款的电子帐目系统取代。 ” 1. Intangible currencies are more convenient than its predecessor. 2. Tangible currencies are safer than its counterparts. 3. It is too extreme to let the electronic system replace the tangible system entirely. We can let they two coexi

Optional words: Thesis sentence: while electronic currencies enjoy their own merits, it still can not replace the entire system of tangible currencies.View1: convenient, efficient and easy to carry are the exclusive advantages of electronic currencies.Evidence:View2:tangible currencies such as c
40、oin and paper has its own merits and special functions that could not be replaced by electronic currencies.Evidence: merits: more reliable, more efficient in small sum transaction, more systematically safe; function: collection The prospect of converting the worlds monetary system of metal coins and
41、 printed paper into a computerized system of credits and debits is intriguing. Opponents of the idea regard a digital economy as a dangerous step toward a totalitarian society in which an elite class dominates an information-starved lower class. My view, however, is that conversion to a digital econ
42、omy has far-reaching economic and social virtues that outweigh the potential risk of misuse by a political elite.Supporters of the idea of “digital cash” view the move to a digital economy as the next logical step toward a global system of free trade and competition. Herein lies the main virtue of a
43、 digital economy. In facilitating trade among nations, consumers worldwide would enjoy a broader range of goods at more competitive prices.In addition, a digital economy would afford customers added convenience, while at the same time saving money for businesses. Making purchases with electronic cur
44、rency would be simple, fast, and secure. There would be no need to carry cash and no need for cashiers to collect it. A good example of the convenience and savings afforded by such a system is the “pay and go” gasoline pump used at many service stations today. Using these pumps saves time for the cu
45、stomer and saves money for the business.A third benefit of such a system is its potential to eliminate illegal monetary transactions. Traffickers of illegal arms and drugs, dealers in black-market contraband, and counterfeiters all rely on tangible currency to conduct their activities. By eliminatin
46、g hard currency, illegal transactions such as these would be much easier to track and record. As a result, illegal monetary transactions could be virtually eliminated. A related benefit would be the ability to thwart tax evasion by collecting tax revenues on transactions that otherwise would not be
47、recorded.To sum up, I think it would be a good idea to convert current monetary systems into a system of electronic accounts. The economic benefits, convenience and savings afforded by such a system, along with the potential to reduce crime, far outweigh the remote loss of a significant social or po
48、litical shift toward totalitarianism.9. “Employees should keep their private lives and personal activities as separate as possible from the workplace.”“雇员应该保持他们的私人生活和个人行为尽量远离工作场所。 ” 1， Personal activities should not be brought to ones workplace since they can reduce ones efficiency. Thinking about o
49、nes private life can distract one from his or her work. 2， Talking about private life and doing personal activities can disturb other fellow workers. 3， It is inevitable for a person to think about his or her private life and to do some personal activities at the workplace. But an employee should do his or her best to focus on the work when at workplace. 1， it is true that employees can hardly only work like a machine, that is to say, inevitably, they may carry some personal emotions while working. Sharing the personal interests and activities moderately may help build the positiv
