朗阁讲师林森点评

综合写作：

阅读：持肯定观点

1. 欧洲的许多map上有landmass，和澳大利亚现在的样子很像；

2. 欧洲一本1539年出版的书里有marsupial的插画，而marsupial是一种典型的澳大利亚动物；
3. 在澳大利亚发掘出一串European-made key，根据周围土壤时间，是1500年代的。

听力：不认同

1. map和现实的Australia并不完全一致， 有可能是professional mapmaker根据sailor带回来的second hand绘制的，而sailor也可能是听别人说的，自己并未去过；

2. marsupial不仅澳大利亚有，南美和北美也有，所以可能是发现了南美和北美的marsupial；
3. 最近的研究重新检测表明surrounding soil不能得出key的时间，后来有improved method表明不是1500年代的。

本题是三选一的新题型，并且三个选项之间无法紧密比较，以下是笔者给出的一个参考答案：
Position: I have the preference that providing the teacher's training to improve the teaching quality is a better idea.
Reason 1: First of all, it is obvious that more training for teachers guarantees the proper levels of teaching quality for the whole society, which should be one of the primary and fundamental tasks for the government. (通过对老师的培训能够保证整个社会的基本教学水平,而这一任务是政府面临的基本任务之一)
Reason 2: Second, the benefits brought by the training for teachers would go far beyond the basic levels of education. Virtually, an experienced teacher, with a wild range of training, could play a vital role in guiding and helping young students in various kinds of fields in daily life, besides understanding new knowledge in the classroom. (对老师的培训不仅能带来上述好处，还能够在生活中的各个方面更好地引导和帮助学生)
Reason 3: Hiring more teachers cannot provide governments the elementary solution to the educational problem. What's more, providing preschool education for the kindergarten also cannot ensure the proper outcome of education, for there are too many random factors effecting the performance in the future.（雇佣更多的老师不能从根本上解决教育问题，并且提供学前教育也不能确保学生未来的学习情况，因为有太多的随机因素会对结果产生影响）
