R:4篇，前三偏頗簡單，平均16分一篇，最後一篇稍難，大概18分

I:light microscope/electronis telescope/transmission electron telescope

II:racoon的數量從某一時期開始到現在維持大量的可能原因
1.urban, especially suburban
2.possibly the decrease of coyoto
3.?忘了有沒有其他原因了

III:transgenic crops可能的好處及沒有好處的分析
-農藥的使用
-蟲子的抗藥性
-?
加試? :Spartina, commonly known as cordgrass orcord-grass
native to the southern Atlantic Ocean islands
.....反正TPO裡有一篇有講Spartina本身特性，有做過那篇的
來做這篇簡單很多!!
這篇大概只記得後面講Sp.被移植到美國其他地方去保護沿岸mash land
但後來爆走，因為他們的環境適應力太強，從而對當地生態還植物或動物
什麼鬼的造成危害


L:

XI:astronomy-2 possiple theories of the formation of gas planets
1. core accretion:先rocks然後一些重物質like金屬啥的也來了，等到
mass5~10被地球重時形成足夠gravity來吸引gas到外圍
2. 先gas，後重物質(怎麼進到gas裡面形成core的忘了= =)
-Gravitational instability
-因為....所以形成時間比較短/長(忘了= =)=>教授因此覺得這理論比較靠譜
S:

I: what KIND of pat would you recommend to your friend to have? (大致上啦)

int W.:
3 methods to stop the spread of oak tree's some kind of fungus infection
in 美國某地方(忘了哪)
R:for L:against

first, R:spores tend to disperse by 人's shoes and 單車輪胎(單字忘了)
so, washing the those things can be very cost-effective.
L:not true. mostly by stream of rives which carries the spores
over distance
second, R:some kind of chemical substance can enhance the trees to defend
the infection
L:the substance only lasts for a few months(too short)
依稀記得一段:imagine thoundsands of thousands of 人 inject dozes
every month
too many trees to put into practice too (expensive)cost-ineffective
third, R:clear-cut:burn and cut down the infected trees and vegetation around
them. 雖然確實會傷及無辜Q，但是blabla(忘了啥嘴砲理由)，hence this
approach is practical
L:true for some cases. but greater ecological dangers because
most of the trees around the oaks in the area are rare types.

ind W.:
agree or disagree?
leadership comes nature: People cannot learn to be a leader
