　　Task I: Retelling a story

　　Nancy lost her left arm in a car accident when she was 10 years old. In spite of that, she decided to study judo, a popular Japanese martial art. She began lessons with an old Japanese judo instructor, and she was doing well, but she couldn't understand why, after three months of training, the instructor had taught her only one move.

　　"Instructor," Nancy finally said, "don’t you think I should be learning more moves?"

　　The instructor replied, "This is indeed the only move you know, but it is the only move you'll ever need to know."

　　The girl kept training, although she didn’t understand the teacher.

　　Several months later, the instructor took Nancy to her first tournament. It was surprising that she easily won her first two matches. The third match proved to be difficult, but after some time, her opponent became impatient and charged. Nancy deftly used her one move to win the match. Now she was amazed to be in the finals.

　　This time, her opponent was bigger, stronger and more experienced. For a while, Nancy appeared to be overmatched. Concerned that the girl might get hurt, the referee called a time-out and was about to stop the match when the instructor intervened.

　　"No," the instructor insisted, "Let her continue."

　　Soon after the match resumed, her opponent made a critical mistake. Instantly, Nancy used her move to pin the opponent. She won the match and won the tournament. She was the champion.

　　On the way home, Nancy and her teacher reviewed every move in each and every match. The girl summoned the courage to ask a question she had on her mind:

　　"Instructor, how did I win the tournament with only one move?"

　　"You won for two reasons," the teacher answered. "First, you've almost mastered one of the most difficult throws in all of judo. Second, the only known defense for that move is for your opponent to grab your left arm."

　　The girl's biggest weakness had become her biggest strength.

　　Task II: Talking based on a given topic.

　　Describe a past incident in which you successfully overcame your weakness.

　　Task III: Role-playing

　　Student A: Today in China, more and more public museums at national and provincial levels have stopped charging admission fees. Yet people have different opinions on this. Some think that people have the right to enjoy free access to such cultural facilities as museums while others insist that free admission causes lots of problems. You and your partner are discussing the issue. You think that museums should be free to the public while your partner thinks that an entrance fee is necessary. Try to convince him or her. Remember you should start the conversation.

　　Student B: Today in China, more and more public museums at national and provincial levels have stopped charging admission fees. Yet people have different opinions on this.
