No doubt every Senor 3 student wishes to be successful in the National College Entrance Examination.
With these done, I think we can greatly improve our performance.
With the economy of China has been developing very fast, more cars do benefit the families as well the society in many ways. With a car, it is convenient for the family members to travel to and from work. They can also drive to the countryside on the weekends. At the same time, the development of motor industry will sure give a push to many other related industries, it is obviously beneficial to the social economy. In the other hand, the boom of private cars is also causing traffic and environmental problems. Waste gas from cars are causing serious pollution to the air, which do great harm to people’s health. With an increase number of cars on the roads, the traffic has become very heavily.

In this article I'd like to tell you how to behave better in an IELTS oral English test. Everyone will make necessary preparations for some possible topics in order to increase your performance in the interview. 1. What would you do if you were asked in an interview to talk about how you feel about your hometown if in fact you really dislike living there?
Some people might think that being truthful in this situation and giving a negative answer, they would not do the right thing. 2. They talk about how they love living there and give a positive answer which sounds more attractive.
3. And giving a negative opinion of something is not important, either. 4. If you have more to say by being truthful, even if it is to express a negative opinion, then that is what you should talk about.
5. And follow it up with your reasons for disliking it instead of saying “I like my hometown…” and then struggle to find something to say.
We should consider how to deal with this situation in the best way
A. However, sometimes, you will be asked to talk about something that you don’t really like or don’t really want to talk about.
B. What is your true feeling about your hometown?
C. Instead, they try to hide their true feelings.
D The important thing is that you have something to express.
E. No one should have a negative feeling about their hometown.
F. It would be much better to say “Actually I don’t really like my hometown…”
G. Actually, truthfulness is not important in such an interview.
Interest in pursuing international careers has soared (increased sharply) in recent years, enhanced by chronic (lasting) personnel shortages that are causing companies to search beyond their home borders for talents.
Professionals seek career experience outside of their home countries for a variety of reasons. They may feel the need to recharge their batteries with a new challenge. They may want a position with more responsibility that encourages creativity and initiative. Or they may wish to expose their children to another culture, and the opportunity to learn a second language.
When applying for a job, one usually has to submit (present—v.) a resume or curriculum vitae (CV). The two terms generally mean the same thing: a one-or two-page document describing one's educational qualifications and professional experience. However, guidelines for preparing a resume are constantly changing. The best advice is to find out what is appropriate regarding the corporate (company) culture, the country culture, and the culture of the person making the hiring decision. The challenge will be to embrace (include) two or more cultures in one document. The following list is a good place to start.
● "Educational requirements differ from country to country. In almost every case of 'cross-border' job hunting, just stating the title of your degree will not mean adequate description. Provide the reader with details about your studies and any related experience."
●Pay attention to the resume format you use—chronological or reverse-chronological order. Chronological order means listing your 'oldest' work experience first. Reverse-chronological order means listing your current or most recent experience first. Most countries have preferences about which format is most acceptable. If you find no specific guidelines, the general preference is for the reverse-chronological format.
●If you are submitting your resume in English, find out if the recipient uses British English or American English because there are variations between the two versions. For example, university education is often referred to as 'tertiary education' in the United Kingdom, but this term is almost never used in the United States. A reader who is unfamiliar with these variations may assume that your resume contains errors.

Plants are flowering faster than scientists predict in reaction to climate change, which could have long damaging effects on food chains and ecosystems.
“Global warming is having a great effect on hundreds of plant and animal species around the world, changing some living patterns.” scientists say.
Increased carbon dioxide (CO2) in the air from burning coal and oil can have an effect on how plants produce oxygen, while higher temperatures and changeable rainfall patterns can change their patterns of growth.
“Predicting species’ reaction to climate change is a major challenge in ecology,” said the researchers of several U.S. Universities. They said plants had been the key object of study because their reaction to climate change could have an effect on food chains and ecosystem services.
The study, published on the Nature website, uses the findings from plant life cycle studies and experiments across four continents and 1,634 species. It found that some experiments had underestimated the speed of flowering by 8.5 times and leafing by 4 times.
“Across all species, the experiments underestimated the speed of the advance—for both leafing and flowering—that results from temperature increases,” the study said.
“The design of future experiments may need to be improved to better predict how plants will react to climate change,” it said.
Plants are necessary for life on the Earth. They are the base of the food chain, using photosynthesis (光合作用) to produce sugar from carbon dioxide and water. They let out oxygen which is needed by nearly every organism on the planet.
Scientists believe the world’s average temperature has risen by about 0.8 ℃ since 1900, and nearly 0.2 ℃ every ten years since 1979.
So far, efforts to cut emissions of planet-warming greenhouse gases are not seen as enough to prevent the Earth heating up beyond 2 ℃ this century—a point scientists say will bring the danger of a changeable climate in which weather extremes are common, leading to drought, floods, crop failures and rising sea levels.
1.What is the key information the author wants to give in Paragraph 1?
A. The increasing speed of flowering is beyond scientists’ expectation.
B. Climate change leads to the change of food production patterns.
C. Plants’ reaction to weather could have damaging effects on ecosystem.
D. Food chains have been seriously damaged because of weather.
2.We can learn from the study published on the Nature website that _____.
A. scientists should improve the design of the experiments
B. plants’ flowering is 8.5 times faster than leafing
C. there are 1,634 plant species on the four continents
D. the experiments failed to predict how plants react to climate change
3.Scientists pay special attention to the study of plants because _____.
A. they can prove the climate change clearly
B. they are very important in the food chains
C. they play a leading role in reducing global warming
D. they are growing and flowering much faster than before
4.What can be inferred from the last two paragraphs about the world’s temperature?
A. It has risen nearly 0.2 ℃ since 1979.
B. It is 0.8 ℃ higher in 1979 than that of 1990.
C. It needs to be controlled within 2 ℃ in this century.
D. Its change will lead to weather extremes.
