2021年10月23日托福考试机经完整版（2）

SPEAKING

Task 1

When people are in difficult situations, some prefer to consult their parents or other elders in their relatives; others prefer to get advice from their friends who are of their own age. Which one do you prefer and why?

Task 2

Reading: school announcement

大学决定给学生提供a new series of classes，一共有three sessions，为了help students adapt to the academic life on campus. And benefits can also come when they socialize。

Listening:

男生agree

理由1：When he was first enrolled on campus, he had trouble managing his schedule. 于是他把一些learning activities(reading for an essay) postpone to the end of the semester，使得自己never caught up。

理由2：socialize的时候，music students多数会跟自己same interest和same major的人去hang out，而跟不同的人，例如engineer or art students，会be interesting and rewarding。

Task 3

Reading：

Inaction inertia

Inaction inertia is the phenomenon that one is not likely to act on an attractive opportunity after having bypassed an even more attractive opportunity. So far, all published work has assumed a causal role for the emotion regret in this effect. In a series of 5 experiments we found no support for this regret explanation.

Listening：

教授举例是买音乐会的票。研究员把participants分成two groups，one group被告诉offered tickets with 10% off，然后80% are willing to accept. 另外一组被告知第 一次phone call票价50%，但是they failed to pick it up，这时候再被asked whether they would accept, only few accepted the tickets with 10% off.

Task 4

Monkeys on trees have different ways to get water.

首先是通过food，例如howler monkeys主要吃tender leaves of the tree which are rich in moisture;

其次是plants that collect water when it rains，例如spider monkeys在一些shape like cups的plants on trees里获得water supply。

WRITING

Task 1

Topic

Reading

英国海军Sir John Franklin船上的一些crew死于lead poisoning，有人猜测是密封canned food所使用的lead导致的，but it is improbable，有以下三个原因：

1. Lead did not contact with the food. 铅确实用来密封罐头，但因为铅只用于罐头表面，而不与食物接触，所以不可能是封罐头的铅导致的中毒;

2. Other ships did not report poisoning. 当时其他船的船员也都会食用这种罐头，假如真的因为罐头不可能只有这艘船的船员会发生中毒案件;

3. Other source led to the poisoning. 这艘船有个unique water purification system，这个系统里面有lead pipe，所以是这个lead pipe的铅渗入到了水中，造成了船员铅中毒。

Listening

就是canned food上的铅导致的铅中毒。

1. canned food的公司给了员工time pressure，所以员工在密封罐头的时候会careless，导致密封铅与食品接触，进而导致船员中毒;

2. 其他船的船员很可能也中毒了，只不过比较轻微所以没有报告。因为轻微铅中毒的症状是tiredness and headache，容易和其他病症混淆。所以其他船的船员中毒事件没有detected and reported;

这个unique water purification system是给引擎供水的，因为是steam engine，所以需要把海水变成fresh water，不然引擎用海水会损坏。并且船员有separate water purification system，并没有喝这个water purification system的水。

Task 2

Do you agree or disagree with the following statement?

It is better to take risks and explore new things when you are older rather than when you are younger.
