各位学霸们好，今天黄老师照例给大家带来本周PTE考场出现的真题和答案解析。
目前因为PTE考生较少，系统负载较少，所以不少学生考完了以后当天就可以出成绩，效率奇高！而且，口罩并未对学生的口语分数产生明显的影响，大家可以无需担心。
黄老师从本周的考题中挑出了一些较难的口语ASQ / 写作ESSAY / 阅读RO题目，同学们可以根据黄老师提供答案进行理解性记忆。
对于口语的Answer Short Questions，该题目前有变难的趋势，也就是常识问题变得不是那么的常识，具体有多不常识同学们可以参照黄老师提供的问题和答案，检查一下你们自己能够答对多少道题。
写作ESSAY还是常规操作，注意不要跑题（切记核心词原则），而且同学们请一定记住大作文是PTE考试中唯一需要高级词汇和语法结构的题目，所以平时需要多积累一些这方面的词句，尤其是词汇。所以同学们可以重点记忆黄老师范文中的好词好句，这样考试时就可以用出来了。
阅读RO题目前也有变难的趋势，题目里给出线索越来越隐晦了。但是该题的解题方法是不会变的：一定要从文章中找线索！！！而不是干读文章意思。同学们可以想一下：这些考题（已经为正确顺序）段落与段落中有没有什么逻辑线索呢？
那么，接下来我们来看真题和答案吧

Essay
The formal written examination can be a valid method to assess students learning. To what extent do you agree or disagree?
论点1：Formal written test is a universally-accepted test form composed by educational authorities, which can systematically and thoroughly examine students’ curriculum knowledge.
展开1： Compared with other test forms, such as group essay or laboratory test, which are relatively more subjective, formal written tests deliver a direct score representing students’ academic results because the process of creating the tests is more rigorous.
论点2：Formal written exams only test candidates’ theoretical knowledge instead of practical knowledge that can be applied to real-world situation.
展开2：Although some of the current formal tests have already included practical knowledge to some extent, these tests cannot be compared equally with practical tests in terms of assessing practical knowledge.

Essay
Do you think cashless society can be a reality in the near future? If so, is it a positive or negative development?
* 该题注意题干问题可能出现的复数形式；且两个问题都必须各用至少一段回应
论点1：In light of the rapid progress of digital technology in the recent decades, it is undoubtedly that cashless society will be an inevitable future for most societies regardless of whether the public accepts it or not.
展开1：The transition of being cashless has already begun, with point-of -sale (POS) terminals in place in virtually all retailer stores, and it seems to be pointless to bring a huge amount of cash, giving online transactions taking place on a second-to-second basis.
论点2：Cashless payment has bought and will keep bringing huge convenience for consumers and businesses.
展开2：Customers can enjoy their purchase by swiping their credit card instead of brining a sheer volume of banknotes with them, which is neither safe nor convenient. Meanwhile, businesses can make online transactions with their partners on a global scale, which eliminates geographical limitation for most enterprises.

Reorder Paragraph – Mother of Storm
(1).Unlike Barnes’ previous books, Mother of Storms has a fairly large cast of viewpoint characters.
(2).This usually irritates me, but I didn’t mind it here, and their interactions are well-handled and informative, although occasionally in moving them about the author’s manipulations are a bit blatant.
(3).They’re not all necessarily good guys, either, although with the hurricanes wreaking wholesale destruction upon the world’s coastal areas, ethical categories tend to become irrelevant.
(4).But even the Evil American Corporate Magnate is a pretty likable guy.
Reorder Paragraph – Ocean floors
(1).The topography of the ocean floors is none too well known, since in great areas the available soundings are hundreds or even thousands of miles apart.
(2).However, the floor of the Atlantic is becoming fairly well known as a result of special surveys since 1920.
(3).A broad, well-defined ridge-the Mid-Atlantic ridge-runs north and south between Africa and the two Americas.
(4).Numerous other major irregularities diversify the Atlantic floor.
(5).Closely spaced soundings show that many parts of the oceanic floors are rugged as mountainous regions of the continents.
