transition into college,as a sophomore from Medical School,(2 I propose that an orientation program should be offered.(3 The suggested details are as follows.(4 First and foremost,considering the COVID-19 pandemic,the program combines online courses that students must complete before the start of classes on September 8th with offline activities to be held in our gym or playground from September 1st to 7th.(5 The virtual program will contain an introduction to the various resources and opportunities available to freshmen,including academic support,health and security knowledge,and a welcome speech addressed by school leaders,etc.(6 For the offline activities,there will be military training which is an opportunity for freshmen to socialize with each other while further engaging with campus faculty and staff.Finally,all freshmen are required to participate in and complete the orientation program.Ul 51 tl:lmffl:5:E:i:t ffi-,iJi IYlfi Jl(:rJ (:(.(21 llHtmffl:fi

ago,a couple was enjoying a meal at a beach restaurant.(5)The restaurant was built on a wooden structure above the sea-water.During the meal,the mans wedding ring slipped off his finger.It fell through the wooden floorboards,apparently lost forever.(6)Recently,the restaurant manager Ryan Krivoy decided to replace the wooden deck and he found an old gold coin,some$100 bills and a silver wedding ring while replacing the deck.(7)The restaurant waitress Sasha Formica posted a picture of the ring on Facebook.The post was shared about 5,000 times.Three days later,the happy wife called to claim the ring.She even texted pictures of her and her husband eating there in 2017 as proof.The restaurant mailed the ring back to the happy couple.Meanwhile,Krivoy discovered that the gold coin was very rare.It was from 1855 and worth as much as$2,000.5.What do we learn about the restaurant?D)(ffffil$ffi113ffl.EM:1fdi1J,i!-Wt1Hlt Jl:tEffiJ-V-llii 1:eJ*flilltal:,l.lit D)6.What did the restaurant

will receive a healthy incentive of almost$300 a year if they meet certain body weight standards.To qualify for the bonus,they must maintain a healthy weight.For those who 2021.12/27(1)are overweight or obese,they could receive the bonus if they reduce their weight by 10%during the year.Some applaud the policy as fair,because it rewards both the individuals who maintain a healthy weight and those who are working towards achieving it.(20)But critics say the policy contradicts recommendations by many health experts,who warn that a persons weight is influenced by genetic and environmental factors.That means weight can be hard for individuals to control,which makes the bonus unfair.Some experts say the policy is inconsistent with the science of what we know about body weight regulation.These experts argue that focusing on wage is the wrong approach.(21)A more productive method of encouraging health among employees is to promote healthy behaviors.For example,companies can give workers gym memberships,or encourage participation in lectures on healthy eating and living.They can also reduce sweets and provide healthier snacks in the office and healthier meals at the company canteen.Or they can give employees more time during their lunch break to exercise.These are much better and much more productive ways for companies to move forward on their employees wellbeing.19.Who will qualify for the bonus in Mexican oil company?A)(fflffi$gpJ 7J Ji o ffi:i(Jf:kffi lli,ffl 1!:flf,E rdJ 0ffl I-mStfli,gJlr 300 5G111JftJjj/Jo Ta1t.1!?.ffJ-o rulltm.-ti

to 25 are based on the passage you have just heard.(22)Campaigners have warned that the British government is not doing enough to prevent left-handed pupils from falling behind their peers.They claim that thousands of children are still being penalized for being left-handed.This is due to a lack of action from ministers,whove failed to take any meaningful action for years.It is feared that a failure to address early-year challenges,such as poor handwriting,leads to much more serious problems down the line-with these pupils facing reduced career prospects.(23)Studies in recent years show that left-handed children are more likely to suffer with learning difficulties and their scores are lower on IQ tests.Campaigners feel its strange that children in British schools are penalized because they happen to be left-handed.They dont understand why successive governments have failed to act on this.(24)They want the department of education to record which children are left-handed and what their educational attainments are,since they make up some 10%of the population.In early-year education,left-handed children are struggling and making a mess of their handwriting.Educators dont know how to deal with this.In many cases,there is no active help and a lack of teacher training.(25)Campaigners point out that a high percentage of the prison population is left-handed.They say that these prison numbers are unusually high and ask why it is the case.2021.12;2s cm 1 22.Why are some people criticizing the British government?A)(ffffil
