Note taking is available only to students who have documented disabilities and are registered with Queens University Accessibility Service (QSAS). Note taking is approved for students with disability-related functional limitations that makes it difficult for them to access academic information presented in class.
There is a wide range of reasons why students may require note taking as an accommodation, including students with:
● hearing loss, who may have difficulties hearing the instructor while writing notes at the same time
● vision loss, who may have difficulties seeing information presented on overhead screens
● mental health conditions or attention-related disabilities, who may have difficulties attending to orally-presented information while taking notes
● learning disabilities, who may have difficulties recording notes when information is presented orally
● physical disabilities, who may have motor or pain related difficulties
Accessibility advisers consider a students description of their need for note taking along with information contained in their disability documentation and the type of course in approving note taking as a formal accommodation.
Online Note Taking Portal (門户网站)
QSAS is in charge of the exchange of notes taken by student volunteer note takers and students registered with QSAS via our secure online note taking portal.
The pages in this section provide information for students with disabilities, volunteer note takers and instructors on requesting note takers, signing up to be a volunteer note taker and assisting QSAS with recruiting volunteer note takers.

There is always no lack of ordinary people taking action for extraordinary change. Aghan Oscar is just among them. Thirteen years ago, Aghan, bothered by the ever-increasing quantity of plastic waste in this low-income suburb of Nairobi, decided to find a way to recycle it.
Now his company, Continental Renewable Energy Co. Ltd (COREC) produces poles for use in construction, farming and road signs. So far hes sold 96,000, and he says his potential for growth is limited only by the considerable expense of setting up plastic recycling plants.
Most of Aghans customers are farmers and developers who once used wooden fence poles. Customers say they have other benefits as well. “I have fenced my piece of land three times using wood posts, but most of the time the fence was vandalized (故意破坏) by villagers who used the posts as firewood.” said Caleb Kapten. Now plastic posts have stopped the problem, he said.
The Kenya National Highways Authority is one of CORECs biggest customers. It approached the company after road signs were vandalized by criminals who sold the metal poles to steel manufacturing companies. Aghan reckons (估計) that CORECs products have saved the government millions of shillings, besides preventing road accidents.
When Aghan started this recycling business in 2003, most of his employees were his family members due to financial constraint (限制). Now he employs 250 young people to collect plastic waste. Fifty more youths work on the production line, where the waste is sorted according to quality before being crushed and washed, melted and cast into different shapes. The poles are then arranged by shape and size for sale in the yard of the recycling plant.
4. Whats the biggest challenge of Aghans future career?
A. The poor technology in recycling. B. The high cost of building factories.
C. The increasing piles of plastic waste. D. The limited policy support in recycling.
5. How was Caleb Kaptens problem finally solved?
A. He gave up fencing his land.
B. He guarded the land more carefully.
C. He replaced the wood posts with plastic ones.
D. He got some donated metal posts.
6. What does the last paragraph suggest?
A. Great difficulty facing Aghan.
B. Stricl standards of plastic poles.
C. Various ways of making plastic poles.
D. The complex process of recycling plastic waste.

In todays society, language plays a key role in defining gender (性別) by vocabulary, and also their non-verbal (非语言的) vocabulary. Each one of these different types of ways of communicating is obviously different between men and women.
Many different studies show that men tend to talk much more than women. It has also been proven that women tend to speak faster than men; this is due to the fact that women tend to be interrupted more often than men are, and also have the ability to speak more clearly, precisely, and more quickly than men.
Men and women also tend to have a very different non-verbal way of communicating, which can also make it very hard for one another to understand what the opposite sex is trying to say. Mens body language is much more reserved when talking to women. Men tend not to make as much eye contact and they generally stay farther away from women when talking to them. Men avoid other peoples body space while talking, and they also tend to sit back when talking.
Women also make it clearer whether or not the conversation is going somewhere or just stuck in neutral. After learning about our styles of communicating with each other, I have decided that although men have not quite mastered communicating, what fun would it be if we all spoke the same “language”? The little games men and women play with each other while conversing would be lost. The question everyone asks himself or herself after talking with someone of the opposite sex, “I wonder if theres something there?” would no longer exist.
8. What does the underlined word “this” in Paragraph 2 refer to?
A. The differences between mens and womens languages.
B. The different speed of mens and womens speech.
C. The ability of mens and womens spoken language.
D. The non-verbal vocabulary of men and women.
9. In what way do men and women differ according to the third paragraph?
A. Speed of understanding. B. Understanding of speech roles.
C. Politeness of communication. D. Application of body language.
10. What is the authors attitude to the differences between mens and womens communication?
A. Cautious. B. Favorable. C. Ambiguous. D. Skeptical.
11. What is the best title for the text?
A. Women, born excellent talkers B. Mens and womens social roles
C. Vocabulary and communication D. Opposite gender, different language
D
Body language varies significantly across cultures. But what remains consistent across all known cultures are microexpressions (微表情). Microexpressions occur in everyone in a second, often without their knowledge. These facial expressions including surprise, anger, fear, disgust, happiness, and so on can reveal our true feelings about another person or situation.
People might try to hide or obscure (模糊) them in different ways informed by culture, but to a practiced reader the true emotions are always visible. In the Philippines, showing both positive and negative emotion is a sign of openness and honesty. But visible negative emotion is seen as rude or aggressive while expressing too much positive feeling is considered embarrassing in Japan.
A few years ago, my husband and I traveled to Qatar to lead a body language discussion for 200 HR (人力資源) leaders. Womens bodies were completely covered, so we couldnt see the posture or gestures. When standing on stage, all the men looked only at my husband and all the women merely at me. Luckily, we knew from the videos wed previously made of Qataris that the flashes of emotion in their faces reflected the same feelings we might find from audience members anywhere else in the world. And so we could adjust what we want to show accordingly, and felt just as comfortable as we would have at home.
To recognize and understand microexpressions, you should first study the common microexpressions to know the typical feature of each. And then educate yourself on the local body language—including masking techniques before visiting or interacting with another culture. Third, when youre in the moment, pay much more attention. You cant interpret microexpressions if you dont notice them.
12. What is special about microexpressions?
A. They are brief and unaware. B. They are hidden and unusual.
C. They are natural but unnecessary. D. They are flexible but unavailable.
13. What is most useful for the body language discussion according to the author?
A. Getting well prepared. B. Being well organized.
C. Reacting with others actively. D. Using body language accordingly.
14. Which stage will you be in if you keep your focus on others face?
A. Step One. B. Step Two. C. Step Three. D. Step Four.
15. What is the best title of the passage?
A. Developing Greater Social Skills B. Getting Better at Reading People
C. Behaving More Differently in Public D. Learning More about Microexpressions

Public Speaking
Public speaking can be defined as the act of making a speech in front of a group of listeners.
The types of public speaking are deliberately structured with three general purposes: to inform, to persuade and to entertain. An informative speech has a purpose to inform, or give knowledge to its audience. _1_ For persuasive speech, the speaker would try to change the mindset, perception, or behavior of the audience for their own good. Thus, the speaker needs to look for common ground with the audience and try to relate to what they might agree on.
_2_ Sparing some time to practice will help build confidence and help determine how long the presentation will last. Aside from it, knowing who the audience will be is quite necessary. Try to get as much information as possible regarding this particular area related to the audience. Knowing the “battlefield” in advance will give the speakers a huge advantage.
Language is the main aspect a speaker needs to pay attention to while giving a speech. _3_ A speaker needs to choose their words carefully and make it clear to the audience what they mean. Often, when given a speech, the audience look up to the speaker to give them something new and useful. _4_ Language and delivery alone will not be sufficient if the speaker does not have the body language. The movement and gesture of a speaker also affect the audience. While closing the speech or presentation, speakers can restate their main points, just to remind the audience of the important things that have been said. _5_
A. It needs to be used clearly.
B. These speeches mark special occasions.
C. The important thing to watch about is not to put in too much information.
D. The key of perfecting anything is through practice, including public speaking.
E. They can also end it with a special message and encourage the audience to ask questions.
F. Knowing how public speaking is done is a key part in understanding the importance of it.
G. Thus, the speaker needs to know how to deliver their speech to fulfill the audiences expectation.

A graduation speech given by Chief Justice John Roberts became a talking point after The Washington Post published it.
Roberts _1_ (address) his sons ninth grade graduating class. He advised the young graduates _2_ (take) lifes setbacks in their stride (從容地). But he did not wish _3_ (they) good luck.
“Now, the speakers will typically also wish you good luck and extend good _4_ (wish) to you. I will not do that, and I will tell you why,” Roberts said.
“From time to time, in the years to come, I hope you will be treated _5_ (unfair), so that you will come to know the value of justice. Sorry to say, but I hope you will be lonely from time to time, so that you dont take friends _6_ granted. I wish you bad luck again, from time to time, so that you will be conscious of the role of chance in life and understand your success is not completely deserved and _7_ the failure of others is not completely deserved either.”
He continued, “I hope you _8_ (ignore), so you know the importance of listening to others, _9_ I hope you will have just enough pain to learn compassion.”
