WRITING:
The Integrated Writing Task
? 考生需要在3分钟之内读完一篇学术性文章,接着听一段与之话题相关的讲座录音,随后就讲座的要点写一篇概述。
? You have 20 minutes to plan and write your response。 Your response will be judged on the basis of the quality of your writing and on how well your response presents the points in the lecture and their relationship to the reading passage。 Typically, an effective response will be 150 to 225 words。
? 5: a response at this level successfully selects the important information from the lecture and coherently and accurately presents this information in relation to the relevant information presented in the reading。 The response is well organized, and occasional language errors that are present do not result in inaccurate or imprecise presentation of content or connections。
In many organizations, perhaps the best way to approach certain new projects is to assemble a group of people into a team。 Having a team of people attack a project offers several advantages。 First of all, a group of people has a wider range of knowledge, expertise, and skills than any single individual is likely to possess。 Also, because of the numbers of people involved and the greater resources they possess, a group can work more quickly in response to the task assigned to it and can come up with highly creative solutions to problems and issues。
Sometimes these creative solutions come about because a group is more likely to make risky decisions that an individual might not undertake。 This is because the group spreads responsibility for a decision to all the members and thus no single individual can be held accountable if the decision turns out to be wrong。
Taking part in a group process can be very rewarding for members of the team。 Team members who have a voice in making a decision will no doubt feel better about carrying out the work that is entailed by the decision than they might doing work that is imposed on them by others。 Also, the individual team member has a much better chance to “shine”, to get his or her contributions and ideas not only recognized but recognized as highly significant, because a team’s overall results can be more far-reaching and have greater impact than what might have otherwise been possible for the person to accomplish or contribute working alone。
