Part Two T ranslation
Translation
Directions: Read the following passage carefully and translate it into Chinese. Write your translation clearly in the spaces provided below. 
What’s in a name?
       For thousands of years, humanity has classified the living thins of this world in much the same fashion; by their appearance. If it looks like a duck, walks and quacks like a duck, then it is a duck. But tackling millions of species in this way has proven to be a recipe for confusion. As scientists have found to their cost, what looks like a duck may in fact be a goose. 
       More recently, genetic techniques have been applied, particularly for distinguishing the more difficult-to-identity species such as viruses and bacteria by comparing pieces of DNA. Might this approach be more generally applicable? Paul Hebert and his colleagues inCanadathink it might be. Just as barcodes and the “universal product code” numbering scheme uniquely identify different items at a supermarket checkout, they suggest that some stretches of DNA could perform a similar function in living things. In a paper just published in Proceedings of the Royal Society B, they discuss how long such a genetic barcode needs to be, and where it might be found. 
       A universal product code found on the high street consists of a string of 11 digits, each of which is one of ten numerals, providing 100 billion unique combinations. Genetic material, however, 
uses a quaternary, rather than a denary, coding system. In theory, it would only be necessary to sample 15 of those letters to create one billion unique codes. 
       In practice, however, the characteristics of DNA mean that 15 letters are not enough. Unlike the arbitrary numbers of a universal product code, the letters of DNA are not random, because they code for something that a biological meaning.

II. Role plays or debate
1. As the job-hunting season is approaching, many graduates have to decide whether to remain 
inBeijingand seek a job here (though it is not very easy to hunt a good job) or go to small cities to have an easy life. 
Student A:It’s not advisable choice for us to work inBeijing, for the life inBeijing won’t
  be easy here. 
Student B: I will try every effort to remain here to have a further develop and enjoy the exciting life here. 
2. As the industry develops more rapidly in these years, people inChinabecome much more concerning about the environmental protection. 
Student A:I appeal to the government to postpone or stop some of the current projects, and punish the ones who are polluting our city. Industrialization brings us nothing but the stink of money and a dirty sky. We should not develop our industry intensely. The industrialization should be slowed down at once, or we’ll get punished
. I don’t mean to be Student B: .We shouldn’t reduce our production under any circumstance
unconventional. But I do prefer industrial development to environmental protection. More exactly, industrialization can be the motivation and also the supporter of environment protection, which may be the contrary to normal consideration. 
 3. Deputies from the National People's Congress, as well as members of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference, proposed changes to the holidays at this year's cong
ress. They called for shortened Labor Day and National Day holidays, and the addition of the Mid-Autumn Festival and the Tomb Sweeping Day. 
n week has lots of reactions to the online manage
Student A:I’m strongly agree to the change of the holidays, the golde
disadvantages. 
Student B:I don’t think the golden week holiday should be abrogated, because people have been used to it. People need it. 
4. Our country has stepped into the aging society (people who are 65 or older have taken up 14%).Who will take care of the very old and disable old? Where could they spend the last few years in their life? 
Student A:The nursing home is the only way to solve the problem. 
Student B:I can’t agree. Those who live in the nursing home are not as happy as those who live with their family. 
5. Have you ever experienced a natural disaster? Work with your partner and discuss the disaster(s) that you experienced or heard of. 
6. Student A:All the Chinese should join in the "Rejecting the Japanese Goods" side, because the Japanese have done too many things hurting our feelings. 
Student B:"Rejecting the Japanese Goods" is not necessary. The Japanese goods, such as the    S tudent
Japanese notebook PCs, the Japanese cars and so on, are better and cheaper than ours. 
7. Student A:English language is tool—we learn it for we’re going to use it. So the four skills of English are very important. We attend the English Class for improving our English Skills. 
Student B:We attend the English class because the charm of a foreign culture often attracts us strongly. That is the very foundation stone of the interest of learning a foreign language. Further more, only by mastering the foreign language can one attain the charm of a culture.
