1. 听写包 答案：

So anyway, I thought for our project we could do a similar study,

but investigate whether it really was the writing activity that had that result.
OK.So we could ask them to do a writing task about something completely different...somethingmore factual?
Like a general knowledge topic.
Maybe...or we could have half the students doing a writing task and half doing something else, like an oral task.
Or even, half do the same writing task as in the original research and half do a factual writingtask.
Then we'd see if it really is the topic that made the difference, or something else.
That's it. Good. So at our meeting with the supervisor on Monday we can tell him we've decidedon our project.
We should have our aims ready by then.
I suppose we need to read the original study — the article's just a summary.
And there was another article I read, by Smolinsky.
It was about her research on how women and men perform in mixed teams in class, comparedwith single-sex teams and on their own.
Let me guess...the women were better at teamwork.
That's what I expected, but actually the men and the women got the same results whether theywere working in teams or on their own.
But I guess it's not that relevant to us.
What worries me anyway is how we're going to get everything done in the time.
We'll be OK now we know what we're doing.
Though I'm not clear how we assess whether the students in our experiment actually make anyprogress or not...
No. We may need some advice on that.
The main thing's to make sure we have the right size sample, not too big or too small.
That shouldn't be difficult.
Right, what do we need to do next?
We could have a look at the time table for the science classes...
or perhaps we should just make an appointment to see one of the science professors. That'd bebetter.
Great. And we could even get to observe one of the classes.
What for?
Well...OK maybe let's just go with your idea. Right, well...
总之，我觉得我们在自己的项目中也可以做个相似的研究，
不过我们要调查的是，是否真的是这个写作环节导致的那个结果。
好的，我们可以叫他们以某个完全不同的事情，某个更加真实的事情为题写一篇文章？
比如以常识为题。
也许......我们可以让一半学生完成写作任务，另一半做点别的事情，比如口头任务。
再或者，我们可以让一半学生做和原本研究中同样的写作任务，剩下的一半以真实事情为题写一篇文章。
这样我们就能知道是否真的是那个话题导致的成绩差异，还是其他事情。
就是这样，太棒了。那我们星期一和导师见面的时候，就可以跟他说我们已经决定好做什么项目了。
在那之前我们应该把目标确定好。
我想我们需要把原本的研究看一遍，那篇文章只是个总结。
我还读到过另一篇文章，是Smolinsky写的。
这篇文章研究的是，和在单一性别小组以及自己独自学习时的表现相比，女生和男生在班上的混合性别小组的表现有什么不同。
让我猜猜......女生在团队合作时表现更好。
我也是这么想的，但是事实是，男生和女生无论是在团队合作还是独自一人时，表现都是一样的。
不过我想这个和我们的项目没什么关系。
我真正担心的是，要如何按时完成所有的事情。
现在我们已经知道要做什么了就没问题了。
不过我不是很清楚要怎么知道参与我们实验的学生是否真的取得了进步......
对啊，我们在这个问题上也许需要一些建议。
主要的事情是，我们要确保试样规模正确，不能太大，也不能太小。
这应该不难。
那我们接下来需要做什么呢？
我们可以看看科学系班级的课程表，
或者我们也许应该跟一位科学系教授约个时间见一面。这样也许更好。
很好，这样也许还有机会观察其中一个班级。
观察什么？
嗯...好吧，也许我们还是直接按照你的想法来吧。

2. 阅读包答案：

乌鸦是敏锐的观察家和快捷的学习者，它们对其他生物(包括研究人员)的意图感觉非常敏锐，并且善于躲开它们。

3.写作包答案：

Courtyard is a historical type of residence.It was commonly found throughout China,most famous in Beijing.In ancient times,a courtyard would be occupied by a single large family.Today,many remaining courtyards are still used as houses,but most lack modem living facilities.Courtyards date back to as early as the Western Zhou Period,with a history of over 2,000 years.They exhibit outstanding and iundamental characteristics of Chinese architecture.Courtyard also serves as a cultural symbol of Beijing and a window into old ways of life.
