Topic 議題：the special functions of the hammer-shaped head of a kind of a shark

Sample answer:
The reading and listening discuss about the special functions of the hammer-shaped head of a kind of a shark. The passage mentions three functions. Whereas, the professor totally refutes the three points presented in the passage.
Firstly, the professor rebuts the reading’s first point that sharks with such shaped head turn around quickly. The professor claims that this kind of shark does turn around quickly, but it is not because of the special head, but because of other factors such as skeleton. Besides young sharks were used in the previous experiment, thus the young also affected the result. Maybe the old ones with such special heads cannot turn around that quickly.
Secondly, the professor contradicts reading’s second point that such head helps improve the shark’s sensitivity to electricity field. The professor mentions that an experiment proved that all sharks with and without this special head have similar sensitivity to artificial electric field.
At last, the passage states the third view that the head can be used as a weapon to hunt prey. However, the professor explains that Sharks’ eyes are located at both sides of the hammerhead, which is risky for them to use hammerheads as weapons. Besides, there’s no evidence to prove that sharks ever used heads as weapons.

寫作思路：
本次的獨(dú)立寫作并不難，話題是我們?nèi)粘Ｉ钪泻艹Ｒ姷模?不由想起了前段時(shí)間的“二胎政策” two-child policy)。所以當(dāng)談及思路時(shí)，我相信同學(xué)們有很多想說的～
老師先說下，如果選擇的角度是“讓大一點(diǎn)的孩子幫忙照顧小一點(diǎn)的寶寶”，可采取的解題方式——拆分法：1.對(duì)older children有好處; 2.對(duì)家長(zhǎng)有好處; 3.對(duì)家庭關(guān)系有好處;
那么如果大家選擇了“parents' responsibility”也可以寫：1. 讓孩子去幫忙照顧孩子可能會(huì)照顧不好。2.一般來說現(xiàn)在grandparents 也能幫忙帶孩子，也不需要讓孩子來幫忙照顧。 3.現(xiàn)在的孩子其實(shí)也沒有那么多的free time(大家可以講下當(dāng)下中國的小孩，有些很小就被扔到boarding school去了，2周才能見回一次家等這類情況)，他們想照顧也沒辦法。
寫作指導(dǎo)：
Main point: Older children should help parents to take care of younger siblings
Sub point1. 可以讓older children更加成熟(mature)。主要體現(xiàn)在：獨(dú)立自主的能力&心態(tài)。幫忙照顧sibling 的過程中可以學(xué)到很多生活技能，例如如何給寶寶換尿布(diaper);沖泡牛奶時(shí)要注意什么;如何做一些簡(jiǎn)單的飯菜等。這一系列的活動(dòng)讓孩子更加的patient,更加independent;就心態(tài)這塊而言，older children在照顧弟弟妹妹(sibling)的過程中懂得從對(duì)方的角度看問題，更加的包容懂事。例如弟弟妹妹還處于嬰兒期(infancy stage)時(shí)會(huì)哭，這時(shí)older children就會(huì)去考慮到底是餓了?還是躺著不舒服? 還是要換尿布了?…這些都會(huì)讓他們的心智更加成熟。
Sub point2. 減輕(relief)父母的負(fù)擔(dān)(burden)。一般來說養(yǎng)一個(gè)孩子是比較累的，更別說(let alone) 兩個(gè)、三個(gè)孩子了。父母白天要工作，就算媽媽是全職太太(housewife)，一個(gè)人也顧不過來。所以需要older children幫家長(zhǎng)。比如，媽媽出去買菜的時(shí)候，older children可以照顧下(attend)小寶寶;…(有弟弟妹妹的同學(xué)可以拿自己來舉例，我相信自己親身experience過的例子一定可以寫的很生動(dòng)!)這些都會(huì)極大減輕父母的負(fù)擔(dān)。
Sub point3. 有些人說照顧孩子是父母的事，不應(yīng)該讓older children來做。但是我們要注意了題干中說的是help to take care of,也就是說只是幫幫忙，主要的照顧任務(wù)當(dāng)然還是adults的。In fact，這樣做對(duì)于older children有利無害，成長(zhǎng)了自己，幫助了爸媽，還可以讓家庭氛圍更加的joyful and harmonious(可以體現(xiàn)在parents與children之間，以及older children和younger one之間)，何樂而不為呢?
