[心得] 6/4考題分享 & 感謝哈佛Chloe教練
在準備托福的一路上，很感謝ptt版上大家的幫忙，當然更感謝一路上指導我的Chloe教練
，也謝謝哈佛的戰友們(尤其是發音漂亮的Eva和很會想梗的Kevin)，還有哈佛的機經。在
完成我的托福任務後，我決定貢獻自己小小的腦力激盪，盡可能的把回憶題寫得完整一些
，尤其是對大家比較有幫助的口說和寫作部份。
以下是我的試題回憶：
Reading
1. 一種S開頭的恐龍，頭上有孔，探討那個孔的作用，主要是製造聲音，或者通過嗅覺，
探測天敵，找尋食物。（其中一題必須4選2）。
2. 美國工業革命發生的原因、比較在美國的勞工與英國的勞工。
→在英國的勞工因為地狹人稠，大家必須搶工作，又擔心機器會取代他們，資本家會剝削
他們，生活品質大不如前。
→在美國的勞工因為地廣人稀，每位勞工家庭都有自己的田可以耕種，機器反而是幫助他
們大量生產糧食的助手。
3. 美國的interstate highways system優點和缺點分析，優勢：減少碰撞，增快交通，
可以運輸更多的貨物，而且更方便。劣勢：燃料使用量增加，環境污染嚴重。交通系統單
一化，改變了城市的結構。加大了每天通勤的距離。
Listening
有加試！所以是3個conversation和6個lecture，lecture內容分別是ancient Greek
sculpture、hydrophone、William Wordsworth的詩、glial cells and neurons，還有一
篇和藝術史相關，另一篇我忘了….
Speaking
1. Describe one or two ways your life may change five years from now. Please
include specific reasons and details in your response.
2. In a workplace, do you think the employer should constantly supervise the
employees or is it better that the employer only checks on the employees
occasionally? Please include specific reasons and details in your response.
3. mail: acquirement for assignments will change
R1: should read assigned materials before class
R2: will help students' final papers
Man, agrees
(1) reduce discussion time in class since students already know what topic
they should discuss
(2) really help final papers because students don't need to rush to find out
the paper topic and could have more time to complete
4. 文章講到動物在幼時和成年後的physical difference。例子中講到一種seabird，這
種鳥成年後的羽毛是白色的，這樣的外形利於捕食，不容易被魚發現;但這種seabird幼時
羽毛是黑色的，因為小鳥容易被aggressive的大鳥襲擊，黑色的羽毛有利於在鳥巢中隱蔽
以保安全。
5. No kitchen in the man's new renting house, eating out is expensive
S1: cook meals in his friend's house, inconvenient, going to his friend's
house every day is strange
S2：school cafeteria meal plan, cafeteria is far away from his house
6. 長期記憶 long term memory 又可分為以下兩種: 一種是declarative memory, 另一
種是procedural memory。
陳述性記憶 declarative memory : know fact, e.g. know
Roosevelt was America's president (我忘記例子是舉羅斯福還是舉林肯，反正就是美
國很有名的一位總統。我們知道他是美國總統，這就是陳述性記憶)
程序性記憶 procedural memory : know how to do something but can't explain why
know, e.g. ride a bike
example: football coach: 用陳述性記憶教足球，用程序性記憶表演足球技巧
Writing
Integrated Task
→R
T：shafts in Great Pyramids have three purposes
1. During the process of building, workers found themselves hard to breathe,
so built in order to breathe
2. religious purpose:
kings could associate with gods or stars
3. passageways:
let the king's spirit leave his body and travel outside
→L
T：we can't really ensure the purposes
1. have pairs of shafts but all far from the top for several meters,可能只有其
中二個是，其他的都不是
2. They connected with gods or stars in their later life, but shafts are
built in their earlier life
3. They could build symbolic passageways:
build on the surface of walls and no need to open, the king's spirit could
travel through the wall.
Independent Task
Do you agree or disagree with the following statement?
The most important thing for government to improve health care is to clean
the environment .
Use specific reasons and examples to support your answer.
另外，我還要和大家分享一則很有用的資訊，因為決定自己申請學校，所以SOP還是得自
己來，而教練在被我多次騷擾之後，po了這篇太有用的SOP示範文：
http://chloeyachun.blogspot.tw/2012/03/sop.html
請放心進入，因為教練的部落格，除了實用文章，是沒有任何廣告的！
最後，由衷的感謝Chloe教練，這次能一戰破百，完全是教練在最後一個月幫我改了46篇
作文!!! 24篇是報名哈佛時贈送的批改，另外22篇是我根據教練批改後的建議再重新寫過
的文章，因為是重複的主題，所以教練沒有再收取任何費用，大大解決我最弱一科的問題
。
也給大家一個小小建議─寫作要進步，一定要狂練啊!而且要不怕丟臉的給老師改，發回
的作文最好再練過，這就是我原本最弱的寫作卻可以拿到27分的原因。
祝大家考試順利了!
