　　口语三，文中说下学期开始，学生将不被允许在学生活动中心外面的墙上张贴海报，因为海报使建筑难看，海报可以贴在餐厅的海报栏里。女生不认同，她说如果不给贴，那个建筑就会变的很boring，就是光秃秃的水泥墙，海报使建筑看上去有艺术感，使它具有性格和个性，海报常常变化，也使得建筑不那么沉闷。关于海报贴在餐厅外，女孩说不是所有人都在餐厅吃饭，课后有的人吃点零食，有的在外面吃从家带来的饭，这样的话，他们就看不到贴在餐厅外的海报，可能会错过很多announcements.
　　the university announced a ew policy that posters are no longer allowed to be put up at the enterance of the student center building for the reason that the posters make the building less attractive.

　　口语六，为什么有的事情会记得比别的事情清楚。两个原因，第一是如果你对这个事情预先有所了解，你就会记得比其他事情清楚，事后也更容易回忆起来。比如你去参加一个古典音乐会，如果你对古典音乐有比较多的了解，一年后让你回忆这个音乐会，你就很容易记起很多它的细节，相反你可能什么也想不起来。第二个原因是某些事物可能和其他的事物有比较大的区别，这些不同的事物更容易被记住，比如你去上大学里的一节大课，一年后让你回忆，你可能记起来的是那个个子非常高的男生，或是非常聪明的一个女孩。

　　写作一，在美国，某些人认为电子病历有三个优点，省钱，不会发生错误，和利于做科研。教授认为这些优点是uncertain，他说，即使有了电子病历，医生们还是会把纸质病历作为备份，所以存储转移这些病历的费用并没有省下来。第二，虽然电子病历使用电脑，但是还是难免出现错误，因为病历还是由医生手写，职员打字输入的，在辨识医生的文字和输入电脑的过程中都有可能出现错误。第三，文中说电子病历利于更方便的取得大量病人的相关资料做研究，但是教授说在美国病人的病历属于隐私的范畴，有隐私法privacy laws来监督，研究人员不可能随意的查看病人的病历，首先他必须经过严格复杂的程序获得很多人包括病人自己的允许才能查看病历，所以关于电子病历的这个优点是不存在的。
　　The passage offered three benefits of adopting the electronic system of doctors’ records. However, the speaker refuted that the supposed benefits are highly uncertain.
　　the passage first claimed that the electronic records save much costs on the storage and transferring of paper records. To deny this, the speaker mentioned that the doctors will still keep the signed paper records as a backup and for later legal purposes. she said that the cost cut is not significant.
　　then, the passage argued that the electronic records can help prevent the mistakes such as illegible handwritings. To oppose this, the speaker brought about the fact that the doctors will still take notes with pens, and it is the staff who will input the material into the electronic system. therefore the error can not be iliminated.
　　Finally, the passage stated that the electronic system can help aiding the medical research. To oppose this, the speaker let the listerners pay attention to the fact that the strick privacy laws will still prevent the researchers from accessing the medical record database
