On the Use of Translation Apps
The increasing popularity of using translation apps has aroused a heated discussion as to its benefits and drawbacks. Views on the topic vary greatly among people from different walks of life. Some believe that it is convenient for understanding foreign languages, but others believe that it does more harm than good.
On the one hand, using translation apps saves time. For example, when you are travelling in a foreign country and you don』t understand their language, using a translation app will help you to understand signs and to communicate with the locals. On the other hand, using translation apps too much may hinder one's second language acquisition, especially for students. Learning a new language requires hard work and patience. If students have easy access to translation apps, they will probably discard their own thinking and rely on the apps instead.
From my perspective, it is always cheerful to enjoy the convenience brought by technology development. However, in terms of language acquisition, we should realize that we can』t depend on an app in any circumstances and forever. Therefore, it is of greater significance in the long run to acquire a second language on our own.

Romania's wetlands are coming back to life, thanks to help from local communities, the World Wildlife Fund and funding from the European Union. Roughly 2,224 acres of the picturesque Danube Delta – home to 300 species of birds – have filled with wildlife. The land has been connected to the network of lakes and streams in the area.

Conversation 1
M:How do you like your new flexible work in arrangement? Do you enjoy working from home?
W:Yes and no, I find an isolation challenging at times, apart from my mother, not too many people I know, have time for phone chat during working hour. I tried the library but found I wasn』t really keen on working there.
M:No, neither would I. I find the library a bit too quiet. I』d lack inspiration or stimulation, which would be counter-productive to getting a lot of work done.
W:I found the same thing. So, lately, I』ve been going out to Cafes occasionally, I love the noise, the people, the busyness of a Café, the sense of being out in the world.
M: Coffee shops seem to have affectively become off spaces for so many people in this digital age. Though I』m not sure how Café owners feel about it - having so many people who go to that places to work rather than drink and eat.
W:Yes, some people seem to spend a lot of time there and not order much. The most annoying one for Café owners must truly be those, usually only two of them, who occupy a table for six with their laptops and paperwork.
M:They should sit at a table for two, not the table for six. Some obviously stay so long, they need to plug the laptops into a power adapter. I nearly tripped over someone’s computer electrical lead the other day in my local café.
W:It’s a double-edged sword, no doubt about that, for a Café owner. While remote workers help to keep the café full in quiet times, they can take up valuable table space and busy period.

Conversation 2
W: I』m going to start working for another job. I can』t see myself getting an opportunity to progress on my company anytime in the near future. And I really think my skills and abilities deserve a higher salary.
M: You are not going to quit, are you?
W: I』m thinking I might as well. Then I can devote more time and energy to find me a better position at another company.

If you do several jobs in a relatively short span of time, perspective employers might see that you lack loyalty. That could make them worry and reluctant to employ you.

M: They want you to take on more work and responsibility but for the same amount of money?
W: More or less, yes. The way I see it, through having different jobs, I』ve got a lot of experience, and different jobs and in different industries.

聽力篇章1:孤獨感
Passage one
There is a saying that goes something along the lines of 『You must love yourself first before you can love someone else.』 Similarly, I personally believe that you must be comfortable and happy in your own company before you can truly be yourself in the company of others. There is a massive difference between being lonely and being alone. Loneliness is a horrible feeling. However, you don』t have to actually be alone to feel that way. Many times, I』ve felt lonely when surrounded by a big group of people. In contrast, being alone can actually be a blessing, particularly, when you』ve actively chosen it. In my experience, being bored and alone is dangerous and can easily lead to the feeling of loneliness. The trick is to be active. Get outside, stretch your legs, do something cultural, buy yourself something tasty to eat or something pretty to wear. You don』t have to take anyone else into consideration and can do whatever you please. Spending time alone also allows you to more efficiently take care of problems. And then, when it’s time to be social and meet up with your friends, you will be fully there, because you won』t have too much other stuff floating around in your mind. Having been alone for a bit, you will also appreciate your friends』 company more and chances are your time spent together will be more worthwhile.
Question 16: What does the speaker say about being alone?
Question 17: What does the speaker say how to reduce one’s feeling of loneliness?
Question 18: What is an advantage of spending one’s time alone?
