大运河（Grand Canal）是世界上最长的人工河，北起北京，南至杭州。它是中国历史上最宏伟的工程之一。大运河始建于公元前4世纪，公元13世纪末建成。修建之初是为了运输粮食，后来也用于运输其他商品。大运河沿线区域逐渐发展成为中国的工商业中心。长久以来，大运河对中国的经济发展发挥了重要作用，有力地促进了南北地区之间的人员往来和文化交流。
The Grand Canal is the longest man-made river which ex-tends all the way from Bejing in the north to Hangzhou in the south, and one of the grandest projects in the Chinese history. The construction of the canal was started in the 4th century BC and was completed in the 13th century. It was first built for grain transportation and later also for trans-portation of other commodities. The areas along the canal have gradually developed into the industrial and commercial centres of China. For a long period of time, the canal has been playing a significant role in the development of Chi-nese economy,greatly enhancing the personnel exchange and cultural communication between northern and southern regions.

The program is to help freshmen learn what they will confront in the coming college life by passing out necessary materials and explaining their questions about campus activities .So volunteers needed in this program should be those who are sophomores or juniors and are ready to help others . The program will start on1st of next month and all participants should gather at 7 in the morning at the northeast corner of the Main Square to prepare for the leaflets and handbooks which will be distributed to freshmen .As new students are stepping onto the campus ， volunteers should help them to carry their luggage ，pass out manuals ， answer their possible questions and take them to their own dormitories .
I believe this program will be successfully held and it will greatly help freshmen to feel welcomed and warm in a strange but friendly environment.

提高英语四级听力成绩的方法
第一：学习四级听力真题的简洁版，从整体全局角度把握四级听力文章。例如听力真题《讨论买车计划》的英文原文是260字左右，而简洁版几行字就归纳了大意。
又例如：2021年6月份四级真题三则新闻听力材料中第二则新闻，该新闻英语原文是160字，而简洁版几句话就归纳了大致的意思并且问题的答案即考点都在简洁版中。
二 ，掌握常考考点。四级听力题有的是常考考点，例如：问建议是什么，问对某人、某事、某物的评价是什么，问办法是什么，问原因是什么，问该听力材料主旨是什么(比如讨论办一个派对)。了解常考考点就知道了重点是什么。
三，听四级考试的听力真题并做题。实际的做题是很重要的，实际去听，培养听的语感。感兴趣的话，也可以听其他的英文听力材料。我个人认为边播放真题边做题目，去实际选择ABCD中的一个选项是提高四级听力水平的一个好办法。
