范文1（丁晓钟老师版本 innovation）
In todays highly competitive world, innovation matters enormously to an organization or a ry. It is the driving force behind increased competitiveness.
Take growing a successful business as an example. In this day age, social media are gaining popularity among the general public. A company that only relies on traditional media doing its marketing is more likely to get eliminated in the digital era. Put in another way, a company with its focus on social media to boost its br recognition sts a better chance of sting out from the crowd. Clearly, innovation is a vital contributing factor to business success.
What can be done to encourage innovation? To name only a few: Above all, a business or a ry should strive to build a corporate culture or a social climate that values innovation. Second, anyone who participates in the innovation process should be rewarded. Third, we are in urgent need of an education system that stresses innovation over mechanical learning.
Simply put, innovation is an important force that pushes our society forward.
范文2（王菲老师版本 creation）
Nowadays it is common to ener a scene when people want to see things happen but can‘t make things happen for various reasons. The most important reason is that they just refuse to create innovate. With the accelerated pace of our society, more more people recognize the importance of creation that is bound to make a difference in social productivity.
As far as I am concerned, we should all have the notion of being the participants of supporting creation. First of all, creation is the most vital factor to improve the inner competitiveness of our nation. For another, it is certain that creation is so essential that enables many people to find their positions in the company careers in their lives.
Measures are also needed to encourage creation. First foremost, the government should establish certain rules to sweep up the obstacles of invention. Some people have already complained much about complicated procedure of patent applications or high fees to do experiments of inventions.Additionally, high schools universities can provide students with scholarships or overseas learning opportunities, which will stimulate more youngsters to join the group of invention innovation.

气候变化和全球经济发展

W: So what are we doing? What can we do about it?
M: Well I would argue that we need to develop the science specifically to underst the likely impacts of climate change in different contexts.
As I said we need to underst the best ways of avoiding climate change this will involve a huge transition to low carbon energy systems the transition is a tremendous priority.
for this to happen, we may need action on a global scale from a political perspective.
We need to underst the terms on which major ries like China the USA might sign up to a global agreement because at the moment we dont have that consensus.

（成功的要素）
W: I have many business English students. When I teach the classroom, we often end up talking about things like success what leads to success. its interesting that many of them mention the element of luck.
M: Right.
W: Luck is important to success. But since youve seen that fantastic video on the TED Talks website by Rid St. John, he doesnt mention luck at all.
M: Well, Im a firm believer that people can make their own luck. I mean what people regard as luck, you can actually create, to a degree.
W: Sure. I think a lot of what people consider luck is attributed to how you respond to the opportunities that come your way.
M: Yes. Very good point.
W: Seizing the opportunities. But was there any point in the video that you thought was particularly interesting?
M: Yes. Actually there was. Something very impressive to me as many people think that luck is important that natural talent is something you must have in order to be successful. in the video we saw, the point about getting good at something is not about having some natural talent. Its all about practice, practice, practice.
W: Definitely yeah. Natural talent helps in some way but at the end of the day you really do need to work hard get really really good at what you do.
M: Sure.
W: I thought one interesting thing in the video was the idea of passion being so important that people who really love what they do. Of course youre going to want to work harder put the time effort into it. the funny thing is that if you love what you do are really passionate about it work really hard, the money kind of comes automatically.
Q5. What are the speakers mainly talking about?
Q6. What is the woman’s view of luck?
Q7. What is the chief point the TED Talks video makes?

Passage 1
（美国恶魔塔的形成原因以及关于它的印第安传说）
Devil’s Tower, the first national monument in America, could almost be mistaken for the stump of an enormous tree. Its sheer rock sides sweep up from a broad base until they cut off abruptly at the flat summit. Rising more than 1,000 feet in the dle of the gently rolling plains of Wyoming, the massive column of rock, looks as though it was dropped down into this location from a different time place.
In a sense, it was, Devil’s Tower is a relic of the past. When the melt rock of the earth’s core forced its way to the surface to form the throat of a volcano, as the centuries passed, the rock cooled hardened, shrinking cracking into long columns, born in fire fury. Devil’s Tower was then shaped by the slow, gentle work of wind water. The outer layers of the volcano were worn away until the hard core stood completely exposed.
It is small wonder that an Indian legend described Devil’s Tower as being formed by supernatural powers. The legend says that when seven girls were attacked by bears, they took refuge on top of a small rock, they appealed to the Rock God for help. The God caused the rock to grow to lift the girls far above the ground, while it sides were scored by the claws of the angry bears. Even today, says the legend, the girls can be seen above the towering rock. As seven shining stars in the night sky.
9. What does the Devil’s Tower look like?
10. What cause the volcano’s outer layers to wear away?
11. What does the Indian legend say about the Devil’s Tower?
12. How did the Rock God help the seven girl in the Indian legend?
Passage 2
（如何科学理财）
It’s no accident that most gas stations have convenience stores attached. Few of us can fill up the tank without buying a few snacks, cigarettes，soft drinks or other items we can live without. I deserve it. That’s what hard working men women say to justify their lavish vacations, big stereo systems or regular restaurant meals. They do deserve such indulgences. However, they also deserve a home of their own--a secure retirement freedom from worrying about unpaid bills. No one should have to live with what a Texas mother described as constant stress，tension, even fear about money. Sadly the pleasure that comes from extravagances often disappears long before the bills do. The video camera that one single mother bought for a special occasion, for example, is not much fun now. She’s figured out that it will take her another three years to pay it off at $30 a month. the New Yorkers who spent a bundle on an outdoor hot tub now admit they rarely use it, because we cant afford to heat it in winter. The solution set priorities add up the annual cost of each item. Then consider what else you can buy with the same money. That will help you decide which items are really worth it. One Chicago woman, for example, discovered that daily lunches with coworkers cost her $2000 a year; she decided to take lunch to work instead. “I now put $20 a week into my vacation fund another 20 into retirement savings, she says, those mean more to me than lunch”.
Q13. What does the speaker say about drivers who stop at gas stations?
Q14. What does the speaker say about extravagances?
Q15. What does a speaker want to show by the example of the Chicago woman?
