2、examples to support your answer.答案:參考范文 Choices of Human Needs Human needs for farmland, housing or industry land, need not always be at the expense of animals, especially endangered animals.

3、d wise decisions, often both can be accomplished. If, nevertheless, one were forced to choose between the two needs, that of humans versus endangered animals, I believe most people would put the needs of humans first. History has shown that the need of humans for land is a natural progression of dev

4、elopment. For instance, in the early days of American history, the government encouraged the early settlers in the east to move out west, to develop the land.

5、 the plains were naturally displaced, as the wild plains on which they lived and grazed gradually disappeared.

7、appearance of the previously virgin land. Sometimes the only, and perhaps even preferable way to save the endangered animals is to put them into a zoo. In short, human needs for farmland, housing and industry is a natural progression of development as well as a result of the expanding population, es

8、pecially in the urban areas. The unfortunate result is sometimes the displacement of animals, including endangered animals which, thus, can still be saved by putting them into a zoo. 問題:2.

10、ple. People who take risks are found in dangerous sports as well as business. But it is a special person who takes a risk with his own life as opposed to his money. My father was a risk taker. He put everything he owned into his business, but he stopped playing risky sports like horseback riding and

11、 skiing. Once his business was a success and he no longer had to worry about providing for us, he returned, at the age of 60, to the risky sports that he did as a youth. Someone who plays dangerous sports must be an optimist. They cannot imagine that anything will happen to them. They never think ab

12、out breaking their leg while skiing, falling off a cliff while rock climbing, falling on their head while sky diving. They live for the thrill of the moment without a thought to the many things that could go wrong. Rock climbers and sports car drivers must be fatalist. They might plan for potential

13、problems, but once they have done everything they can do, the outcome is out of their hands. A motorcyclist who jumps across a narrow canyon will get the fastest, strongest bike available that will carry him or her across the canyon. Besides, wind conditions or other problems might interfere and the

14、 cyclist may fall short of his goal. Many people have the same traits of course. Many of us are risk takers, optimists, and fatalists. But I think people who play dangerous sports must have these characteristics in abundance. 問題:3. Directions: Some people prefer to get up early in the morning and st

16、 days work. Others, however, prefer to get up later in the day and work until late at night. As far as I am concerned, getting up early is a good habit because it is good for health and is easy to take care of everyday work. One of the most obvious reasons to prefer working in the morning is health.

17、 Human nature is organized around working during the daytime. Habitually staying up late can cause fatigue-related diseases, such as insomnia. For young people, habitual loss of sleep can negatively affect their growth, causing them to be physically shorter than their peers. Another reason why I pre

18、fer working in the morning is that peoples mental status is at its best right at the beginning of the day, which will in turn help them finish their tasks more efficiently. Studies have shown that when experts tracked a representative sample of the general population, people completed tasks much mor

19、e effectively in the morning than in the evening when assigned the same task. Clearly, people work more efficiently in the morning. Eventually, if the job requires cooperation, working in the morning is more convenient than the evening. For example, if we need to take care of some financial business

20、, how can we achieve this at night with all the banks closed? Consider another scenario.

While it can be argued that larger firms have well-established markets and aft, hence, more stable employers better able to deal with the downs of the marketplace, in todays competitive society a smaller firm is often better able to weather changes i

24、n the marketplace. With its smaller size and often smaller investment, it is easier for such firms to change track when the market demands it. Second, although a smaller firm may not offer the same level of training and support that a larger firm does, new employees are usually given more responsibi

25、lity and opportunities to grow. What is more, the smaller staff size means they will get more personal attention from senior managers and have more opportunities to demonstrate their skills and advance. There is no doubt that joining a small firm does entail some risk. The company may fail, leaving

26、its employees suddenly jobless. But even if the worst should happen, the employees would have already gained valuable experience that makes them attractive to other employers. Lastly, as a new graduate I believe that this is a proper time in my life to take risks and seek out learning experiences, s

27、o working for a small firm would be appropriate for me. 問題:5. Directions: Do you agree or disagree with the following statement?
