SECTION 1: LISTENING TEST(30 minutes)Part A: Spot Dictation Directions: In this part of the test, you will hear a passage and read the same passage with blanks in it.Fill in each of the blanks with the word or words you have heard on the tape.Write your answer in the corresponding space in your ANSWER BOOKLET.Remember you will hear the passage ONLY ONCE.Now let’s begin Part A with Spot Dictation.In the ruins of the Palm Beach Hotel you get a powerful sense that an era is drawing to a close that Israel’s attempt to settle its people on the Gaza Strip is in its last days.The waves still crash on the fine sand in front of the beach hotel.But since the Palestinians launched their uprising against Israel—the intifada—nearly five years ago, Gaza has become a violent, dangerous place.People don’t come on holiday anymore.The Palm Beach resort complex was abandoned by its staff and management.The reception area and the dining room have been stripped of their fixtures and fittings.The wind off the sea blows in across floors strewn with broken glass.A similar fate awaits everything that Israel has built here—if it withdraws from Gaza in August, as planned.Some young settlers have been squatting in the hotel as it’s decayed around them.For Elazaar Elchiam, life is good.He lives for nothing in one of the resort’s beachfront apartments.The Mediterranean waves are just metres away, and Elazaar has a passion for surfing.He grew up in one of the nearby settlements—where red-roofed bungalows surrounded by lawns bake in the summer sun.Elazaar dreads the thought that this may well be his last summer on Gaza’s beach.The settlers say Israel is making a mistake.That it’s handing victory to the Palestinian militants who have been attacking Gush Katif for years.Israel has a horror of the possibility that the settler’s homes will be treated as the spoils of victory by groups like the Hamas organisation.To prevent that, it’s possible that the army will demolish everything in the days before the Israelis leave.Debbie Rosen, a mother who’s raised six children in Gush Katif, said she hates the thought of her home being destroyed.But at the same time she couldn’t bear the idea of what she called “terrorists who killed her friends” taking over the house as they celebrate Israel’s retreat.Since the Israeli army captured Gaza nearly forty years ago—in the Six Day War—it’s been occupied territory.When it moved civilian settlers into the Strip it was breaching the Geneva Conventions—the international rules of war.This means nothing to settlers like Debbie Rosen.She said she never thought of her home as being in occupied territory.For her, Gaza is part of the land that God promised the Jews.The occupation may mean nothing to the settlers of Gush Katif—but it means everything just a short distance away, in the Palestinian town of Khan Younis, for decades.For Palestinian families, the occupation has restrictions on movements and limits and humiliations in many areas of life—and it’s hated.Along the western side of Khan Younis Israeli troops man watchtowers that are part of the defenses for the settlements.And the area has seen many clashes between the army and Palestinian militants.They frequently launch rocket and other attacks on the settler communities that they see as being so symbolic of the Israeli presence.The beach used to be an escape from the heat and squalor of the alleyways of Khan Younis.But to keep the militants out of the settlement zone, the army has blocked the Palestinian road to the sea.Khan Younis has lost its beach.Part B: Listening Comprehension Directions: In this part of the test, there will be some short talks and conversations.After each one, you will be asked some questions.The talks, conversations and questions will be spoken ONLY ONCE.Now listen carefully and choose the right answer to each question you have heard and write the letter of the answer you have chosen in the corresponding space in your ANSWER BOOKLET.Now let’s begin Part B with Listening Comprehension.Questions 1 to 5 are based on the following conversation.W: David, I understand, as a photographer, you have spent years documenting the Art.M: Yes.Go back nearly 30,000 years, and you will find our ancestors carving, painting and molding their visions of the world and beyond into the rocky surfaces of Africa.W: Well!It’s a long history.M: You bet.And also we estimate that the number of sites in Africa is...well, over a million, you know, it’s probably closer to five million.And if you think that each site could have thousands and thousands of images, you get some idea of the enormous extent of this art, you know.W: It is quite extraordinary!M: Sure it is!And equally extraordinary, experts say, is how closely their thoughts and struggles mirror those humanity today.They were trying to express their cognitive system, they were trying to look at their concept of reality, they were looking at issues that were depiction of abstract kind of thoughts, and all this together really represents the way they looked at their whole environment.W: Like us? M: Yes.What these ancient artists didn’t know is that their work might one day shed new light on Africa’s past as one far more rich and complex than previously thought.W: Does you mean that it is the way in which African history might be rewritten from now on? M: Absolutely.W: Inspiring!It is a history that rightly belongs to Africa, but one the continent has not always owned.M: Well, it’s partially because of the textbooks at least of old, which gave the idea that humanity originated in Eastern Africa, and then somehow civilization arose in the Fertile Crescent or in Europe and came to Africa in the last five hundred years.W: At present this record of ancient history is slowly falling pray to vandalism, theft, tourism and ignorance.To protect it they founded an organization, didn’t they? M: Tara—the Trust for African Rock Art—it was founded in 1996.In all right rock art in Africa is, theoretically anyway, protected by law, but in that there is so much ignorance about its existence and its importance that doesn’t carry, you know, very much weight very often.W: And what does Tara do exactly? M: Tara is currently digitizing some 20,000 photographic images of African rock art that it plans to make available to scholars worldwide.In addition the group has enlisted the help of giants such as Nelson Mandela, and Kofi Annan.W: Great!M: The rock art of Africa makes up one of the oldest and most extensive records on Earth of human thought.W: Yes.It is time for all Africa’s leaders and peoples to take a new and more active role.M: And we too must save this cultural heritage, before it is too late.1.What’s David’s job? 2.What’s the estimated number of sites in Africa? 3.Which one of the following statements is NOT true about ancient African rock artist? 4.The woman mentioned several reasons why at present the record of ancient history is slowly falling.Which of the following is NOT one of them? 5.What’s Tara’s plan for the future? Questions 6 to 10 are based on the following news.Cupid can always use a little encouragement even in Spain.Men of all ages in the village of Hoyocasero have welcomed busloads of nervous women hoping to meet their match in a scheme that’s trying to repopulate this isolated area of just 400 people.Around 150 men from a group of villages greeted an equal number of women from Spain and Latin America in the town square.The women taking part in the event, responded to Internet advertisements and paid 45 euros each to take part in the day’s activities.The United States urged the Sudanese government on Monday to approve the deployment of a hybrid force made up of African Union(AU)and United Nations troops in the restive western Sudanese region of Darfur.Visiting US Deputy Secretary of State John Negroponte told a press conference that a UN-AU hybrid peacekeeping force was critical to the success of a Darfur peace deal signed by the Sudanese government and one rebel group in 202_.“We must move quickly to a larger hybrid United Nations-African Union peacekeeping force with a single unified chain of command that conforms to UN standards and practices,” Negroponte said.Luxembourg Foreign Minister Jean Asselborn said Sunday night that he viewed Britain as “a real problem” to a deal on a “roadmap” plan for a new European Union(EU)treaty as Britain insists on omitting the “fundamental rights” chapter from the new document.“To remove the fundamental rights chapter will be unimaginable for countries like Luxembourg and Spain, which have approved the 202_ edition of the EU constitution,” Asselborn said following the first night of talks of the EU foreign ministers.The original EU constitution contains a chapter of “fundamental rights” including democracy and human rights.The process of the EU charter was stalled after rejections by French and Dutch voters in 202_ referendums.A man wanted by Kenyan police in connection with last Monday’s explosion in Nairobi that killed one person and injured 37 others surrendered on Sunday, maintaining his innocence.Mohammed Farah Hirsi, 41, surrendered to Kenya Anti-Terrorism Police Unit and was immediately put into custody for questioning, Kenyan police spokesman Eric Kiraithe told journalists in Nairobi.Kiraithe who released the name and a photograph of Hirsi on Saturday said they believed he could have information about the mysterious explosion which threw the nation into panic.The blast was close to the site of the 1998 US embassy bombing which killed more than 200 people and injured thousands of others.A Taliban suicide bomber blew up a police bus in the heart of the Afghan capital yesterday, killing more than 20 people in the single deadliest bombing to hit Afghanistan since the Taliban were ousted in 202_.The blast tore apart the bus, wounding dozens of bystanders, wrecking several other vehicles and scattering body parts.Kabul’s police criminal branch chief, Ali Shah Paktiawal, said some 35 people were killed, including many police officers.President Hamid Karzai condemned the attack, calling it an attempt to block the training of Afghanistan’s Western-led police force, the palace said.It put the death toll at 22 people.Kabul’s police chief, Esmatullah Dawlatzai, said 24 people had been killed and 52 wounded.6.Which of the following statements is true about the village of Hoyocasero? 7.What did the United States urge the Sudanese government to do? 8.Which country is “a real problem” to a deal on a “roadmap” plan for a new European Union(EU)treaty according to Jean Asselborn? 9.Which of the following statements is true about Mohammed Farah Hirsi? 10.How many people were killed in the suicide bomb attack according to Kabul’s police criminal branch chief, Ali Shah Paktiawal? Questions 11 to 15 are based on the following interview.M: Nice to see you, Madame Secretary.Thanks for talking with us.W: Good to see you, Tom.M: You’re wearing your dove pin.Do I take that to mean that you are hopeful about the outcome of restarting the peace process? W: Absolutely.This was given to me by Leah Rabin, and she said it took a lot of doves to make peace in the Middle East.And I do think that there is an opportunity here, a window of opportunity, but it’s not going to last very long.And so this meeting, Tom, is truly important, and I hope that what you’ve reported is so, is that the administration will give direct assistance to Mahmoud Abbas.M: Let’s talk about the specific nuance, really, of that point.In the past, it’s been indirect assistance.Why do you think direct assistance is critical now? W: Well, because I think that democracy has to deliver.He was elected, and he is arguably the only really democratically elected leader in the area.And the problem is that the conditions in Gaza have not really improved in a way that makes people realize that they have a stake in having a peaceful solution to this situation.M: There’s a history, as you well know, of fraud and corruption in some of that funding.Some of the money has gone to groups the United States considered to be terror groups.How do you cut that risk of giving direct aid that doesn’t go to causes that the US obviously wouldn’t support? W: Well, I think at the same time, President Bush and others in the administration have to make clear that there has to be accountability for this money, that there can’t be corruption, that Abbas has to really get control over those kinds of situations.And also, that he has to fulfill what are his responsibilities of making sure that security is maintained, that various groups are disarmed.M: As you well know, the problem historically has been how does the US support a leader without giving so much support that it actually undermines the credibility of the leader? What’s the fine line here? W: Well, but here, what happened when Abbas was prime minister before, was that there really was not enough support given to him so that he didn’t have the credibility.And at this stage, I think the issue is one where he requires this kind of support from us and other countries, by the way, to show that he can deliver some goods to the people, and that jobs are created.That is part of also the problem here, is there needs to be employment in Gaza.M: Are your expectations that, in fact, President Bush will give Mahmoud Abbas what he wants, which is money, but also commitment? W: Well, we have to see, because at the moment, we’ve not heard whether they’re going to be any special envoys or how much effort the president himself and Secretary Rice are going to put into this effort.Although, in the letter that you cited that appeared today, Abbas made quite clear that he needs American support in bringing the parties together in order to move forward on the peace process.M: In exchange, the president, obviously, is going to want Mahmoud Abbas to be able to reign in some of the terror organizations that are affiliated with Palestinian Authority.Do you think Mahmoud Abbas can deliver on that critical point? W: Well, he has moved forward on it, and he’s dismissed some security chiefs that were not doing the job, and he has indicated that he understands the importance of it.And so I hope that that point comes through.I’ve met with—I saw Abbas yesterday, and I also saw the new foreign minister, Al-Kidwa, and they are very much aware that controlling the violence and getting security under control is part of the bargain here.But they also want to see the Israelis remove themselves from Gaza, and then make sure that the roadmap is followed out in terms of the two-state solution.M: Did he ask for any advice, and what did you tell him? W: Well, I, we, were, Kidwa and I know each other very well, because he was the representative at the UN when I was there, and we basically talked about the importance of moving forward, making sure the administration, in fact delivers, and that—the um, Abbas would—will deliver himself in terms of what is promised and what is needed.11.Why is Madame Secretary wearing her dove pin? 12.Why does Madame Secretary think direct assistance is critical now? 13.What did Abbas want clearly from US in the letter that appear today? 14.What shall the president ask Abbas to do as part of the exchange? 15.What did Madame Secretary and Kidwa talk about? Questions 16 to 20 are based on the following talk.In the seaside town of Brighton in southern England the ruling Labour Party’s annual conference is getting underway.It’s a time for both MPs and grassroots members to take stock of how the party is doing, to discuss policy and to hear, hopefully, inspiring speeches.The party delegates will be hoping too for plenty of coverage from the media assembled there.Sometimes in politics it appears it’s not so much what you do but what you seem to be doing that counts, and for politicians public relations can seem to be as important as policies.Newspapers in Britain have long had great influence over Governments, much to the resentment of the politicians.Almost seventy-five years ago, the then Prime Minister Stanley Baldwin accused the two big press barons, Lords Beaverbrook and Rothermere, of running their papers as “engines of propaganda” for the “personal wishes and dislikes of two men”.He famously accused them of seeking “power without responsibility—the prerogative of the harlot throughout the ages”.It’s hard to imagine the current Prime Minister Tony Blair attacking the tabloid press so publicly.A book out this week, written by one of his former press advisers, claims he was “obsessed” with the media during his first term in Government, sometimes making up policy on the hoof simply to give newspapers and broadcasters a story.On one occasion, it says, Mr.Blair was due to go on breakfast television with the veteran interviewer Sir David Frost and the Sunday papers were full of reports of a new rift with his Chancellor of the Exchequer Gordon Brown.The book’s author, Lance Price, describes in his diary the response of the Prime Minister’s press office: “Our aim is to knock the story out by coming up with a better one.So with half an hour to go before Tony Blair’s appearance, we decide to launch a war on drugs.”

An announcement was rushed out that crime suspects would face mandatory drugs tests, a policy that then had to be squared with the minister and officials in charge of drugs policy.Mr.Blair has courted tabloid newspaper editors assiduously.The former editor of the Daily Mirror Piers Morgan claimed earlier this year that he met the Labour leader no fewer than fifty-eight times for lunches, dinners or interviews, a statistic which astonished many in Government and the media, who thought a party leader and Prime Minister should have had better ways to spend his time.But Tony Blair has good reason to court the press.In Britain, Labour, left-of-centre governments, have always had problems with national newspapers, most of whose owners traditionally supported the right-of-centre Conservative Party.This came to a head on Election Day in 1992 when Labour seemed set to win power for the first time in eighteen years.In those days, Britain’s biggest-selling daily paper, The Sun, part of Rupert Murdoch’s media empire, was no friend of Labour, indeed it had been Margaret Thatcher’s biggest cheerleader.That morning, on its front page, it depicted the bald head of the then Labour leader Neil Kinnock as a light bulb.Alongside ran the headline: “If Kinnock wins today, will the last person to leave Britain please turn out the lights?” Labour lost.By the next election, Tony Blair was the party’s leader and determined to win over, or at least neutralise, The Sun and its owner.He succeeded, moving the Labour Party towards the centre ground, and gaining The Sun’s endorsement at the last three elections.Once in Government, Labour played hardball with the media, relishing its power, and aware that if it didn’t take charge of the agenda, the media would.Its key figure was the former political editor of the Daily Mirror, Alastair Campbell, who took charge not just of the Prime Minister’s press office but all government press officers, trying to ensure the Government spoke with one voice.Journalists who reported favourably were given privileged access, those who didn’t were frozen out.Mr.Blair maintained his close links with Rupert Murdoch and his newspapers, doing everything he could to maintain their support.Lance Price claims in his diaries that the Government assured the tycoon and his editors that it wouldn’t change its policy on Europe without asking them.The Prime Minister also built a relationship with another Conservative newspaper, the mid-market Daily Mail, which has a sure instinct for the issues and policies that concern the British middle classes.The Mail led a campaign to reduce the number of asylum seekers coming to Britain and it’s often said that in trying to show they’re tough on criminals and the causes of crime Blair and his ministers are following the Daily Mail’s agenda.But Lance Price says the Government’s obsession with the media can be counter-productive.“You have to understand the power the media has, but it is unwise to become a complete slave to that,” he writes.“If you are too preoccupied with what the media are doing, you run the risk of doing things to produce headlines rather than what is good for the country.”

16.MPs and grassroots members are supposed to do several things during the Labour Party’s annual conference.Which of the following issues is NOT one of them? 17.What did the former Prime Minister Stanley Baldwin accuse the two big press barons of? 18.What did the Prime Minister’s press office decide to do half an hour before Tony Blair’s interview? 19.Which of the following daily papers is not mentioned in the talk? 20.What’s the best title for this talk?

SECTION 4: LISTENING TEST Part A: Note-taking and Gap-filling Directions: In this part of the test, you will hear a short talk.You will hear the talk ONLY ONCE.While listening to the talk, you may take notes on the important points so that you can have enough information to complete a gap-filling task on a separate ANSWER BOOKLET.You are required to write ONE word or figure only in each blank.You will not get your ANSWER BOOKLET until after you have listened to the talk.Now listen to the talk carefully.It’s nearly ten years since I wrote the letter that produced such a phenomenal response from listeners to this programme.It started with a refusal.The producer called and asked if I would think of writing a piece about being a foreign correspondent and a father.I said no.I was on paternity leave and overwhelmed with the sleeplessness of early parenthood.I also wondered what on earth I would say.From Our Own Correspondent(FOOC)was my favourite programme, the greatest vehicle for storytelling anywhere on the BBC, and I didn’t see how the arrival of one reporter’s child might possibly engage the audience.Surely FOOC, as we correspondents call it, was the place to talk about our experience of other people’s lives and countries, not to reflect on our own.The producer of the programme thought he knew better.He called again.“Give it a try at least,” he said.“Becoming a parent is a universal experience.Just write it from the point of view of a foreign correspondent.” I said I would think about it.But I didn’t “think”.Instead, one morning early, sitting up with the baby in one arm, I just started to write.Directly to my son.In writing I spoke not just about becoming a father, but also about my own past, about loss and the failure of dreams, about the pain of different children I had met along the roads of war, and about my father and how alcohol had taken him from me.Listening back now I see that at the time, he inhabited my life as a ghost, a paradoxical presence, far from me, yet always there.There was just one draft of the letter.No re-writing.And after the piece was done I went back to my paternity leave.And then the letters started to arrive.By the sack load.From a mother whose only son had died on a military exercise in Canada;from a man writing by the light of an oil lamp in a tent in Antarctica, missing his family back in Britain;and many, many letters from those who had struggled with alcohol or seen loved ones die from it.Much has happened in the nearly ten years since the letter was broadcast.I eventually quit wandering the war zones of the world and I came to live in Britain.And I found my father.He was waiting for me at the end of the longest road of all: one tougher than all the roads I’d travelled in Africa and Asia.For in the years after the letter I found myself gradually becoming lost in the disease that took his life.Alcohol is an occupational hazard for journalists;for me it went from being the comforting, relaxing presence that calmed the aftermath of witnessing bloody violence, to a self-destructive compulsion, that taken to its logical conclusion would have taken my life just as I had seen it take the careers, marriages and lives of good friends and colleagues in newspapers and broadcasting.Reporting war can give us good reasons for drinking, but for some the “reason” eventually becomes the “excuse”.Our trade is littered with its casualties.I was lucky to stop in time.There were many things that helped: the people I loved, good colleagues, and others who had found sobriety long before me.More than anything though it was the presence of my son, the boy in the letter: his zest for life and his need for my presence gave me the strength I needed.And, as I’ve said, I found my father.In those shivering early morning hours before I quit, in hotels across the world, I think I was touched by some of the pain he knew as alcohol was claiming more of his life and spirit, that steady, incremental departure of hope.And having known that pain I could only feel compassion and that word which we tough, battle-weary journalists of the war zones find so hard to use, love.When I read the letter now, and I remember that morning with the baby asleep in my lap, I see a young father about to start out on the greatest adventure of his life.He doesn’t know that yet, of course.But that child will be the making of him, the saving of him.Part B: Listening and Translation Ⅰ.Sentence Translation Directions: In this part of the test, you will hear 5 sentences in English.You will hear the sentences ONLY ONCE.After you have heard each sentence, translate it into Chinese and write your version in the corresponding space in your ANSWER BOOKLET.Now let’s begin Part B with Sentence Translation.1.Apart from the fact that China is one of the fastest growing economies in the world, Chinese central government and local governments focus a lot of attention on opening up the whole country to the outside world, not only coastal cities but also inland areas.2.The government should be strict with itself in carrying out its official duties in accordance with the law and try to be honest, diligent, pragmatic and efficient.3.All countries seek a way to achieve sustainable development with population, economy, society, resources and environment in harmony.4.The founding of the United Nations and the establishment of the purposes and principles of the UN Charter, while contributing to the maintenance of world peace and social development, have also facilitated the spread and further development of the Olympic spirit.5.Founded in January 1996 and located in the northwest of Pudong New District, Shanghai Toy Factory is a Sino-French joint venture.It covers an area of 38,000 square meters with a staff of 880.It mainly produces all kinds of toy motors, more than half of which are for export.Ⅱ.Passage Translation Directions: In this part of the test, you will hear 2 passages in English.You will hear the passages ONLY ONCE.After you have heard each passage, translate it into Chinese and write your version in the corresponding space in your ANSWER BOOKLET.You may take notes while you are listening.Now let’s begin Passage Translation with the first passage.Passage One: Facts have proven that China’s development not only benefits the 1.3 billion Chinese people, but also contributes to economic growth in Asia and the world as a whole.About 20 percent of last year’s global growth was owed to China’s contribution.China’s development also spurs progress of human civilizations, enriches persity of the world and promotes peace and stability in regions and around the world.By successfully feeding, clothing and sheltering one fifth of the world’s population, China has made an important contribution to the stability and development in the world.Passage Two: “New Beijing, Great Olympics” reflects our desire to host a great Olympic Games in a city with both ancient culture and modern charm.The three themes of our bid are: Green Olympics, Hi-tech Olympics and the People’s Olympics.Our goal is to spread the Olympic ideal among our people, especially the nation’s 400 million young people.We will work with the International Olympic Committee, National Olympic Committees, International Federations, sponsors and friends from the media to establish an open and effective working relationship.Confucius, an ancient Chinese sage, said, “Isn’t it a great pleasure to have friends coming from afar!” We are looking forward to receiving all guests from every corner of the world with open arms in Beijing in 202_.This is the end of SECTION 4, Listening Test.参考答案

“蓝牙”作为技术家族的新生儿,为辅助性技术作业带来了不少希望。“蓝牙”得名于10世纪一位统一丹麦和挪威王国的丹麦国王,是一种短程无线通信技术的规范。它能逾越当前技术中的某些典型障碍,有望改善并增强各种环境中的电子通信能力。蓝牙技术能使设备进行无线通信并传输数据,并且不受制于红外技术的两点对线限制。那么蓝牙是如何工作的呢?

蓝牙设备是在特定的操作范围内相互寻找的。和接线设备不同,蓝牙设备无须事先知道待联设备的能力或性质。蓝牙设备的内置机制可以使每种设备在接入新的蓝牙网络时亮明自己的身份和能力。这种动态网络倒是有一种控制设备,可以把自己指派为联网中的主设备。它的编程和适合特定任务需要方面的能力是其能否成为主设备的决定因素。例如,一部手机如果连上耳机、自动取款机或问讯台,就可以作为主设备。但问讯台如果作为广播紧急疏散信息的主设备,那部手机或耳机就得作为从设备了。手机和问讯台可以按照所需的功能和编程能力作主设备或从设备。

Hangzhou has a reputation for its scenic beauty.About 700 years ago, Marco Polo, perhaps the most celebrated Italian traveler, called it “the finest and most magnificent city in the world”.Hangzhou’s West Lake is like a mirror, embellished all around with green hills and deep caves of enhancing beauty.The Su Causeway which runs from north to south and the Bai Causeway which runs from east to west look like two colored ribbons floating on the water.The three islets named “Three Pools Mirroring the Moon”, “the Mid-lake Pavilion” and the “Ruangong Mound” stand in the lake, adding much charm to the scene.Famous beauty spots around West Lake include Yue Fei Temple, Xiling Seal-Engraving Society, Breeze-Ruffled Lotus at Quyuan Garden, Autumn Moon Over the Calm Lake, and several parks like “Viewing Fish at the Flower Pond” and “Orioles Singing in the Willows”.Hill peaks tower around the lake and amaze the visitor with the ever-changing aspects of their beauty.Scattered in the adjacent hills are scenic caves and caverns, most of which have many stone sculptures carved on their walls.Also among the hills one finds spring everywhere, perhaps best represented by Tiger Spring, Dragon Well Spring and Jade Spring.The place called Nine Creeks and Eighteen Gullies is well known for its twisting paths and murmuring streams.Other scenic sites of historical interest include the Monastery of the Soul’s Retreat, Pagoda of Six Harmonies, Baochu Pagoda, Monastery of Pure Benevolence, Taoguang Temple and a scenic path known as Bamboo-Lined Path at Yunxi.

As is shown in the picture, a boy is telling a girl his experience in making friends.He, like many of modern people, tends to use social networking websites to meet new friends.They love the time they spend with their new acquaintances on the Internet.In my opinion, it‟s total madness for people to do that.The use of social networking websites in cultivating friendship influences our life in a bad way.Firstly, the use of social networking websites may undermine our interpersonal skills in dealing with people in our real life.Secondly, interacting with new friends online may estrange us instead of drawing us closer, though often such communication does offer some fun.Lastly, friendship got by means of those websites may not last long, which may render us a feeling of great loss afterwards.In my opinion, it‟s time we took action to cultivate real friendship for our own benefit.For one thing, we should adopt a correct attitude towards friendship, which involves substantial help with our study or work in daily life, not in the virtual world.For another, we should step aside from the shining pictures, video clips, or voice messages passed to and fro via the websites, and actually meet new friends in person to have a chance to savor the sweetness friends can bring us.Part II Listening Comprehension

W: Hello, Professor Smith.M: Yes, Lily, any problem with the writing assignment? W: Yes.I‟m about to write my research paper summary.I‟m confused about the difference between a research paper and a research paper summary.M: I have a questions, have you finished writing your research paper? W: Not yet, I‟m in the middle of it.M: Then, it‟s advisable for you to wait after you finish your report.W: Why can‟t I do these two at the same time? M: No, you can‟t.To write a summary, you should first of all need to finish your report.Then, review your main ideas, and condense them into a short document.W: I see.The best way to begin writing the research summary is by reviewing my report.M: Yes.That‟s right.W: It seems I‟d better write my report at a faster speed.M: Ok.And, as you said just now, you don‟t know the difference between the report and the summary, right? W: Yes, I do.As I understand, they both write about the same thing.The difference is their length, one is longer and the other is a little bit shorter.M: Yes, you can say that again.Let‟s talk about their differences in class at a later time.But, in structure, they‟re similar.W: Similar? I know, for a research paper, it has a beginning, a middle and an end.M: Yes, so has the report summary.The beginning should introduce the topic and how you plan to address it.The middle of the summary will provide the main points you use to support your argument.The end of the document should summarize the conclusions your paper reaches.W: It seems to be so complex and so hard.M: You‟ll be better off if you keep two things in mind.One is to be concise, and the other is not to use too complicated terms.Questions 1 to 4 are based on the conversation you have just heard.1.When is the right time to write a report summary? 2.How‟s Lily‟s research paper going for now? 3.What does the middle of a research paper summary write about? 4.What does the professor suggest Lily do at the end of the conversation?

W: This is Lucy Bowen.I‟m talking with Professor Jimmy Whitworth, from the London School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine.Welcome, Professor!M: It‟s my honor to be here, and talk about a topic which may make the audience a little bit comfortable or horrible.That is, Ebola, which is spreading mostly in African countries.But, according to the news, more than 17,000 people in West Africa have survived Ebola infection.Sadly, doctors from the US National Institute of Health said, most of them will have long-lasting health problems.W: They have survived Ebola.That‟s very lucky.But, again, they have to feel its potential challenges.M: Yes, you can say that again.The related study shows that survivors in Liberia had developed body weakness, memory loss and depressive symptoms in 6 months after leaving hospital.W: So, in a way, Ebola hasn‟t gone away from these people.M: Yes.When people had memory loss, it tended to affect their daily living, for example, they couldn‟t return to school or normal jobs, and some people may have terrible sleeping problems, regular headaches, and even some patients are “actively suicidal”.W: Is there any available ways to cure these problems? M: Well, we‟re only trying to figure out what some of these problems are physical or mental.However, there‟s still much to learn about Ebola‟s other potential consequences, and there will be a long way to go before effective ways are found to cure them.Questions 5 to 8 are based on the conversation you have just heard.5.What were the speakers talking about?

Sports enthusiasts at every level are clearly aware that the „mental‟ part of performance can be just as important as the physical.Good performance in gymnastics is often said to 90% mental and 10% physical.Other sports see „hidden‟ factors, such as confidence and a „cool‟ head under pressure, make up more than 50% of success.Many will talk about „being in the zone‟ when they perform at their peak.Olympic 100-metre gold medalist Linford Christie described his focus on the starting line as being like looking down a long, straight tune.His ability to blank out other competitors, the roar of the crowd, gave him those extra advantages over his rivals.In sport, psychology matters—and at every level.If you go onto the tennis court telling yourself that you‟ve never beaten Joe before and that you‟re not going to beat him today, then the result is very predictable.So, optimism boosts sporting performance, both at team and inpidual levels.Research into baseball and basketball teams in the USA revealed that teams have their own styles.The style used by teams after a defeat or when under pressure in the last few minutes of a game will determine future performance, regardless of the quality of the team.Those who are optimistic in the face of defeat are more likely to be successful in their next game;those who explain failures negatively will perform more poorly.Research into swimmers revealed that the same trend holds for inpidual athletes.Quite simply, when under pressure optimistic sportsmen and women try harder—and they recover from defeat more quickly.Questions 9 to 11 are based on the passage you have just heard.9.How much will confidence account for in gymnasts‟ success? 10.How did Linford Christie gain extra advantages over his rivals? 11.How can optimism help boost performance in sports?

Passage Two

Today, let‟s learn something about Gettysburg National Military Park, which was built in memory of the Battle of Gettysburg.Fought over the first three days of July 1863, the Battle of Gettysburg was one of the most crucial battles of the Civil War.The battle brought disaster to the residents of Gettysburg.Every farm field or garden was a graveyard.Churches, public buildings and even private homes were hospitals, filled with wounded soldiers.By January 1864, the last patients were gone as were the surgeons, guards, nurses, tents and cookhouses.Only a temporary cemetery on the hillside remained as a testament to the courageous battle to save lives that took place at Camp Letterman.Prominent Gettysburg residents became concerned with the poor condition of soldiers‟ graves scattered over the battlefield and at hospital sites, and pleaded with Pennsylvania Governor Andrew Curtin for state support to purchase a portion of the battlefield to be set aside as a final resting place for the defenders of the Union cause.In 1864, a group of concerned citizens established the Gettysburg Battlefield Memorial Association whose purpose was to preserve portions of the battlefield as a memorial to the Union Army that fought here.A Federally-appointed commission of Civil War veterans oversaw the park‟s development as a memorial to both armies by identifying and marking the lines of battle.Administration of the park was transferred to the Department of the Interior, National Park Service in 1933, which continues in its mission to protect, preserve and interpret the Battle of Gettysburg and the Gettysburg Address to park visitors.Questions 12 to 15 are based on the passage you have just heard.12.What did the Civil War bring to the local people in Gettysburg? 13.Who started the campaign for the protection of soldier graves? 14.When was the Gettysburg Battlefield Memorial Association established? 15.What was the responsibility of the veteran commission in building the park?

Section C Directions: In this section, you will hear recordings of lectures or talks followed by some questions.The recordings will be played only once.After you hear a question, you must choose the best answer from the four choices marked A), B), C)and D).Then mark the corresponding letter on Answer Sheet 1 with a single line through the centre.Now listen to the following recording and answer questions 16 to 19.Since the Industrial Revolution, natural habitats have been destroyed, and environments have been polluted, causing great harm to human beings, such as diseases in both humans and many other species of animals.In today‟s lesson, I will talk about land pollution, the sources of the pollution, its consequences and a few things we can do to prevent further pollution and protect our environment.To begin with, let‟s expand a little bit on the question, what is land pollution? Land pollution is the destruction of the earth‟s land surfaces, often directly or indirectly as a result of man‟s activities and their misuse of land resources.It occurs when waste is not dealt with properly, or can occur when humans throw chemicals onto the soil.Mining activities have also contributed to the worsening of the earth‟s surface.Human actions have caused many large areas of land to lose or reduce their capacity to support life forms.This is known as land degradation.Note that land degradation can result from many factors, and land pollution is only one of them.With regard to different sources of land pollution, many publications group them differently.Let us see these four main sources: Firstly, solid waste is the first source of land pollution.Solid waste includes all the various kinds of rubbish we make at home, school, hospitals, markets and workplaces.Things like paper, plastic containers, bottles, cans, food and even used cars and broken electronic goods, broken furniture and hospital waste are all examples of solid waste.Some of these can be easily coped with or decay into organic matter.Examples include food droppings, paper products as well as plants like grass and tree branches.However, others are not environment friendly, and they include plastics, metals and aluminum cans, broken computer and car parts.Because these do not easily decay, they pile up in places where all the city‟s rubbish are sent and stored, where they stay for thousands of years.These bring great harm to the land and people around it.The second source is the use of pesticides and fertilizers.Many farming activities engage in the application of fertilizers, pesticides and insecticides for higher crop yield.This is good because we get more food, but can you think of what happens to the chemicals that end up on the crops and soils? Sometimes, insects and small animals are killed and bigger animals that eat tiny animals(as in food chains)are also harmed.Finally, the chemicals may be washed down as it rains and over time, they end up in the water, causing water pollution.The third source is……

16.In the eyes of the speaker, who should be responsible for land pollution? 17.Why does the speaker mention “broken electronic goods”? 18.Why do people use fertilizers in farming activities? 19.What will the speaker probably talk about immediately after the passage?

Now listen to the following recording and answer questions 20 to 22.Almost 70 million children across the world are prevented from going to school each day, a study published today reveals.Those living in north-eastern Africa are the least likely to receive a good education—or any education at all, an umbrella body of charities and teaching unions known as the Global Campaign for Education has found.Somalia ranks the world‟s poorest countries according to their education systems.It has the least functional system in the world with just 10% of children going to primary school, while Eritrea is second worst.Haiti, Comoros and Ethiopia are in the similar situation.The report‟s authors, from charities including Plan and ActionAid, measured the likelihood of children attending primary school, a country‟s political will to improve its education system, and the quality of its schools to create the rankings.The study—Back to School? The Worst Places in the World—warns that attempts to ensure all children can attend school are under severe threat.By 202_, there will be more children out of school than there are today, unless the richest countries dramatically increase the aid they give to the poorest nations, the authors argue.“Poor countries are facing a worsening situation, as severe and deepening pressure from the economic downturn caused by the crisis of the rich world‟s banking system bites on their budgets,” David Archer, one of the authors from ActionAid says.Some £2.9bn is expected to be lost to education budgets in sub-Saharan Africa because of the economic crisis, he warns.Kenya, which is rated in the 50 worst countries for education, delayed plans to provide a free primary school education to 8.3 million children in September.The global economic crisis was one reason given for this.Girls are far less likely to attend school than boys in many of the world‟s poorest countries, the authors have found.In Malawi, of those that enroll, 22.3% of boys complete primary compared to 13.8% of girls.In rural Burkina Faso, 61% of girls are married by the age of 18 and over 85% never get to see the inside of a secondary school.Most rich countries have failed to keep their promises to help poor countries improve their education systems, according to the study.While the UK is active in aiding those countries, along with the Netherlands, Norway and Switzerland and Ireland, others—such as Greece, Austria, Italy and Germany—are not giving nearly as much as they should.20.What is said about Somalia? 21.What should be done to prevent more children dropping out of school by 202_? 22.What does the study say about girls in the world‟s poorest countries?

Now listen to the following recording and answer questions 23 to 25.Probably the best known nutrition fact about iron is that meats—particularly red meats—are rich in iron.While this is true, it is also true that a number of plant foods are also rich in iron.It may come as a surprise that researchers have found that people eating plant-based diets eat as much or more iron as people who regularly rely on animal foods.And, you‟ll see that the recommended list of excellent iron sources is largely dominated by plant foods.Without question, more human health problems worldwide are caused by iron deficiency than by lack of any other nutrient.Less well known is the fact that excessive iron stores are also responsible for a large burden of illness worldwide.As such, iron is a very important nutrient to understand not only for researchers and nutritionists but everyone, since we need to be aware of finding the right iron balance from our foods.But, iron really plays a big role in health support.All of the tissues in our body need a near constant supply of oxygen to maintain life.We maintain this oxygen delivery by the red cells in our blood.These have an iron-containing protein called hemoglobin, which is a perfect transporter for oxygen, in that it both picks up and releases oxygen in an exact and targeted way.The average man has about 2 grams of iron in his blood cells at any given time while women have about 1.6 grams.If the dietary iron intake falls below daily needs and this storage amount goes down, the ability to tolerate bursts of exercise will deteriorate.The reduction in blood count related to having low iron stores is called anemia.In addition to the key role iron plays in transporting oxygen to tissues, it also is necessary to support proper metabolism for muscles and other active organs.Almost all of the cells in our body burn dietary calories to create energy through a process that requires iron.When iron stores get low, this process gets compromised, and generalized fatigue can occur.What does the speaker say about iron and health? 24.Why is iron important in health support? 25.What is the speaker mainly talking about in the passage?

China is rapidly getting older.Three decades ago, only 5 percent of the population was over 65;today, 123 million people, or 9 percent of the population, are over this age.By 202_ China‟s older population will likely swell to 330 million and younger generations face an unprecedented burden of care.In the late 1970s and early 1980s, the government advocated a “later, longer, fewer” lifestyle, encouraging people to marry later, have wide gaps between children and fewer children overall.It also set the controversial one-child policy.These were attempts to curb population growth in a bid to help modernise the economy.However, the population control policy resulted in an extremely low fertility rate, further increasing the proportion of the older population.

The quotation mentioned in the directions really makes a lot of sense.No doubt, everyone wishes for success either at his work or in his personal life.Still, a lot of us couldn‟t make it.The only reason is that we didn‟t try hard enough for our dream, or we just dreamed but took no action at all.If we‟ve got a goal in our life, we have to take our prompt action and put out constant efforts along the way to final success, not just sitting on our hands and dreaming.As the saying teaches us, it‟s essential for us to take action to realize our dream or initial goal.Success won‟t come to you if you are not willing to try for it.Numerous examples in human history illustrate the importance of taking action instead of daydreaming.For now, let‟s take high school senior students for example.Every one of them wishes for a chance to be admitted into an ideal university.But, obviously, this goal won‟t come by itself.Every student must study hard and fight for his dream.He has to work diligently to have a positive mindset first, and more importantly he has to deal with tons of test papers on all the subjects he learnt.Only in this way, can he be enrolled in a desirable school.It‟s easily said than done.To take action and make constant efforts along the way to success is not easy.One needs to have a strong will in the first place.In addition, a maximal amount of self discipline is a must.Part II Listening Comprehension

Section A Directions: In this section, you will hear three news reports.At the end of each news report, you will hear two or three questions.Both the news report and the questions will be spoken only once.After you hear a question, you must choose the best answer from the four choices marked A), B), C)and D).Then mark the corresponding letter on Answer Sheet 1 with a single line through the centre.Questions 1 and 2 will be based on the following news item.At least 11 people have died after three coaches of a train derailed in the southern Indian state of Karnataka, railway officials say.The accident took place near Anekal, about 40km from the state capital, Bangalore, on Friday morning.Officials said the figure was likely to rise as many bodies were trapped in the wreckage.Seventeen people are injured.There have been numerous train accidents in India in recent years, killing hundreds of people.India‟s railway network operates 9,000 passenger trains and carries some 18 million passengers every day.Railway officials said the Bangalore-Ernakulam Intercity Express left Bangalore a little after 06:00 local time and that the accident took place 90 minutes later.“I had dozed off when there was a sudden jerk and people started falling off,” Vinay, who works for an IT software company, told BBC.1.What is the news report mainly about? 2.How many people were injured in the process?

1.D 2.C

W: Morning, Ted.M: Good morning, Lucy.How‟re things going? W: Fine, thanks.You see, I‟m busy preparing a PowerPoint presentation for our group meeting next week.M: I feel for you.I‟ve just finished a presentation for my team meeting.W: Great.Any suggestions for me to make a high productivity PowerPoint presentation? M: In fact, it‟s quite easy.But, there‟re certain rules you should keep in mind before starting your work.Such as, you‟re supposed to start your presentation with a detailed agenda.With the agenda, you can make sure all the participants know what the meeting is about.And, you should give the agenda as a handout and include it at the very beginning of the PowerPoint presentation.W: Yes, I see.That‟ll be helpful for participants to know clearly what your goals and direction are for the meeting.M: Quite right.Once you state the goals in the beginning of the meeting, you should stay focused on these goals, conducting your meeting around them.Don‟t run away with irrelevant topics raised in the course of the meeting.W: How can I deal with new and irrelevant problems cropping up during the meeting? M: Easy.You can just write down those questions and remember to address them after the meeting or at another time.W: Good.Another question, how can I deal with opinions from other members of the group? M: Constructive suggestions have to be taken good care of, because they might be very conducive to your work.But, you should mind some dominant personalities in your group.He or she might take over the meeting, or even ruin the meeting completely.W: That‟s something I‟ll try to prevent in the meeting.M: Ok, as long as you‟re prepared psychologically for such accidents, you‟ll navigate the meeting very well.W: I hope so.Do I have to take breaks during the meeting? M: Yes, you‟d better if you can manage to spare some time.Attending a long meeting might be a tiring job for most people.W: Ok, I‟ll mind that.M: Don‟t worry too much.You‟d be good if you can picture possible problems beforehand.W: That‟s right.But, without your advice, I would feel at a loss about the meeting.M: Never mind.My pleasure to help in some way.W: Anyway, thanks, Ted.Questions 8 to 11 are based on the conversation you have just heard.8.What‟s Lucy busy doing now? 9.What does Ted suggest Lucy do at the very beginning of the meeting? 10.How can Lucy deal with new problems appearing during the meeting? 11.What might participants with dominant personality help with the meeting?

Conversation Two

M: How‟s your job-hunting going? W: Very well.I‟m selecting among several job offers.M: Sounds great.So, you‟ll have to get prepared for your coming job interviews.W: That‟s right.M: You‟ll be ok if you stayed focused.If you watch elite athletes right before a competition, you‟ll see they are fiercely focused.W: I wish I could do like that.M: You will make it if you accomplish last-minute job interview preparations.W: Last-minute job interview preparations? M: Yes, that means what you should do right before you‟re on the way to your interview.W: That sounds horrifying.What can I do, precisely? M: First, check Twitter and the company‟s website one last time.W: What for? M: On your way, tap on Twitter and the company‟s website to see if there is any company breaking news you might be able to relevantly reference.It will make you seem interested, informed and help you stand out from other candidates.W: Yes, that‟s what I should learn by heart.M: Secondly, check yourself out, too.That really matters.Try to make a good first impression, especially if your appointment is after lunch, find a mirror and do a quick check on your teeth.W: I know what you mean.A stain in teeth may be very embarrassing.M: No doubt.Be careful with your clothes.Sometimes, due to the limited time for preparation, some candidates may wear their clothes inside-out.That appears to be very ridiculous.W: Right.First impression really counts in job interviews.M: Respect the front desk, too.I also want to mention this to you.W: Why the front desk particularly? M: Don‟t ignore the security team or receptionist at the front desk.W: I‟ll try to show them a proper amount of respect.M: Good.You‟ll never regret it.He or she may be a spy for your future boss.In fact, he or she holds more power than you think.Having a bad relationship with him or her might prematurely end your candidacy for the position.W: Wow, I‟d better not mess with the person at the front desk.M: So, remember to finish your cell phone conversations before you enter the building and take care not to bring any trouble to him or her.Questions 12 to 15 are based on the conversation you have just heard.12.What is the woman doing now? 13.What is the man‟s first suggestion before attending a job interview? 14.How can the woman ensure a good first impression? 15.What is said about the receptionist at the front desk?

12.C 13.B 14.D 15.A

Section C Directions: In this section, you will hear three passages.At the end of each passage, you will hear some questions.Both the passage and the questions will be spoken only once.After you hear a question, you must choose the best answer from the four choices marked A), B), C)and D).Then mark the corresponding letter on Answer Sheet 1 with a single line through the centre.Passage One

Pride and Prejudice is one of the best books I‟ve ever read, if not the best.It is like a textbook on how to pace a story, which is a hard thing to do, for me at least.It is a perfect social comedy.The dialogue is both believable, natural-seeming, and yet ten million times more interesting, witty and articulate than anything real people say.The characters are so well-drawn, interesting, and deep that you get drawn into the story from the first page.Elizabeth Bennet is such a charming, funny, wonderful character—Jane Austen wrote, in a letter, about Elizabeth: “I must confess that I think her as delightful a creature as ever appeared in print, and how I shall be able to tolerate those who do not like her at least I do not know…”.One thing I love about Jane Austen is that she never takes herself seriously, yet she clearly loves her characters, even when they are behaving stupidly.She seems to have had a great eye for the ridiculous in people and society, but not a bitter, hateful one.I‟ve read many essays about the feminism of Jane Austen‟s writing;she clearly saw the desperation and despair of the social position of women: Unable to work, or even to inherit, they had to marry, and marry well, or live in poverty.And Jane Austen clearly saw women as intellectually equal to men.Questions 16 to 18 are based on the passage you have just heard.16.How does the speaker consider the dialogue in the novel concerned? 17.What did Jane Austen say about Elizabeth Bennet? 18.What did Jane Austen write about the social position of women?

16.A 17.C 18.B

Passage Two

Today, I‟d like to talk about eating habits in China.Unlike the West, where everyone has their own plate of food, in China the dishes are placed on the table and everybody shares.If you are being treated by a Chinese host, be prepared for a ton of food.Chinese are very proud of their culture of cooking style and will do their best to show their hospitality.And sometimes the host will serve some dishes with his or her own chopsticks to guests to show his or her hospitality.This is a sign of politeness.The appropriate thing to do would be to eat the whatever-it-is and say how yummy it is.If you feel uncomfortable with this, you can just say a polite “thank you” and leave the food there.There are some other rules that are suggested you follow to make your stay in China happier, though you will be forgiven if you have no idea of what they are.First, never stick your chopsticks upright in the rice bowl, lay them on your dish instead.Otherwise, it is regarded as extremely impolite to the host and seniors present.The reason for this is that when somebody dies, the place for worshiping them contains a bowl of sand or rice with two sticks of incense stuck upright in it.So if you stick your chopsticks in the rice bowl, it is equivalent to wishing death upon a person at the table……

Questions 19 to 21 are based on the passage you have just heard.19.What does the speaker say about a Chinese host? 20.How can foreigners treat those rules about eating habits when in China? 21.Why are westerners advised not to stick chopsticks upright in the bowl?

19.B 20.A 21.C

Passage Three Thomas Jefferson, the third president of the United States, was involved in politics from his early adult years.Born into the planter class of Virginia, Jefferson was highly educated and valued his years at the College of William and Mary.He became a lawyer and planter, building on the estate and slaves received from his father.His father was Peter Jefferson, a planter and major slaveholder, and a surveyor in Albemarle County.His ancestors had come to America from Wales, although this remains unclear.His mother was Jane Randolph, daughter of a ship‟s captain and sometime planter.Later in 1752, Peter Jefferson was appointed to the leader of the county, an important position at the time.After he died in 1757, his son Thomas Jefferson obtained his estate, including about 20-40 slaves.On October 1, 1765, when Jefferson was 22, his oldest sister Jane died at the age of 25.He fell into a period of deep mourning, as he was already saddened by the absence of his sisters Mary and Martha, who had been married several years before.Both of them lived at their husbands‟ residences.He drew little comfort from the younger sisters and brothers, as they did not provide him with the same intellectual encouragement as the older sisters had.In a sense, while growing up Jefferson struggled with loneliness and abandonment issues that eventually developed into a habit of avoiding the company of other people as an adult.Questions 22 to 25 are based on the passage you have just heard.22.What did Thomas Jefferson do to make a living after leaving college? 23.What‟s mentioned about Jane Randolph, Jefferson‟s mother? 24.Who died when Jefferson was 22? 25.How was Jefferson‟s personality when he grew up as an adult?

Part IV Translation

According to a survey made by Beijing‟s Haidian District People‟s Court, Chinese people aged above 30, especially 30-39, are most likely to say „no‟ to their marriage, though many are financially stable and have children to care for.Over the past two decades, the public‟s ideas about marriage have changed a lot, as older couples are ready to separate if their marriage fails their expectations of a happy marital life, while young people become more cautious about tying the knot.Among the more than 600 porce cases surveyed, porcees between 30 to 40 years of age account for 46.5 percent in 202_, up 9.5 percent in 1981.On the contrary, people aged under 30 tend to stay inside the family circle, with only 6.6 percent getting porced in 202_, a big drop from 37 percent 22 years ago.

第五篇:最新新东方听力笔记(精选)

最新新东方听力笔记 概述:

一. 雅思听力基本情况 可做任何标记。

分数段:12-18:4分 19-24:5分 25-30:6分 31-35:7分

36-38:8分 39-40:9分 根据难易要乘系数 二.两个误区

听懂核心词汇,掌握拼写。

极少考理解,多考记录信息点,所听即所得。三. 两个基本范围

1. survival english(社会生活,人际交往等)2. academic english(学术类,教育类,热点话题)四. 问题

1. 利用停顿时间抢读后面题目 2. 直接书写答案

3. 区分考试安排者声音,根据指导做题 4. 手眼耳并用,听看写一体 五. 雅思听力四大特点

1.国际口音:(英、美、澳)(英音50%,澳20%,美20%,其他10%)不利:习惯美音,不习惯英音,必须熟悉英音;

有利:新口音(大西洋口音,适于中国人);动词短语不是考试重点(掌握一般程度:第一个意思即可),去掉了很多地域性的方言。

2.四段叙述:

1、3section是对话,2、4section是陈述,一般来说难度递增。

不利:a.不知道听力磁带和题目间如何建立关系——采用顺序原则(85%):答案顺序和问题顺序一致。b.无法集中注意力(听力中不包含问题,无法对大脑产生刺激)——改变听力学习习惯,练习时应聚精会神,忌跑神和恐慌。

有利:不是每句话都要听懂,应试图听懂每一句包含答案的句子(先看题,再猜答案,然后做题)3.边听边做:

不利:a.阅读量大——要求快速阅读(技巧+能力)——速读 b.写量大——要求手眼耳并用(加强听写能力,掌握四级单词听写)有利:a.不考推理、总结、归纳题,主要考查细节,所听即所得。4.题型多样:10种题型 不利:不熟悉题型 有利:难度较低

六、听力应试策略

短期目标:1.紧扣9套题,十种题型,十种场景。

2.记补充的单词和地名。四级词汇(大学英语四级速听速记)。

3.精听六盘磁带。中期目标:1.短期任务。

2.再做一点题。听力强化最新指南,雅思听力课外强化教程,英语中级听力(关于hotel/restaurant,news不听)。

3.背单词。

长期目标:1.加强发音以及听音的训练。

2.再做一些题目。

3.精听英语中级听力。

七、听力学习方法

错误:一心多用,太过放松;边听录音边看原文;听太难的材料;

正确:1.专心致志

2.复读 3.听写

八、正确的做题思路:分析题目,有的放听;抓住细节。有效高效读完题目

九、基本要求: 背听力单词(听力、地名),做到四会:听说读写。重要场景听10遍以上,最好背过。基本题型

一、地图题(方位题,路线题)

1.看地图,先抓图例、指向标、说明文字、起始点(实质:从某一点走向另外一点,标志词entrance gate、exit、door、where he’s speaking)

2.扫描图中其他信息:街名、过道名、街区名、建筑物名 3.读题

4.听力开始后,按照听力磁带的叙述,用笔在图中随之画出路线(路线题)5.图中方向以说话人前进方向为左右,不能用自己的主观视角 地图题: 1.看例子

2.地图中常识原则(成比例)

二、一般表格题:

1.看表格的标题、图例、说明文字

2.扫描表格横纵轴(先横轴,再纵轴),从中获取有用信息,重点扫描出题格 3.只看出题空格(上看下看左看右看)4.观察题号排列,确定论述顺序

(表格中如题号排列不规则,则100%符合顺序原则)

*一般表格+多项选择:

1.扫描横纵轴。横轴抓核心词,纵轴抓内在顺序。

2.做题时小心经典陷阱——给超过需要答案的组数——抓住核心词 3.注意给的信息套数和答案配套,并注意补充选项 问:how + adj.,可用 very + adj.回答

三、判断正误并改错

1.扫描题目要求,看正确情况下的表达方式,划对勾还是true/yes/t/y(看好题目要求)2.只看出题的题干并划出核心词

3.注意旧信息和新信息的差别,旧信息指画圈的词,听其前后有无否定词(hardly、few、bare、little)。新信息是改错的答案。

4.改错的答案在形式上应与题干完全一致。5.重要在读题阶段,看到有效信息

四、问答题(和填空题是两大种难题)

1.扫描问句中的疑问代词/副词,确定“问什么”。(多是特殊疑问句wh——不能用yes/no回答)2.why——抓because,since,as,for„„ 3.划出问句中的核心词(建议划圈)。

4.注意问答题出现在1、3section 和2、4section的区别 1、3section(对话)——试卷问题与磁带中说话人的发问的是否一致 2、4section(陈述)——试卷问题与说话人反问、设问的是否一致 5.还原句子结构,变疑问句为陈述句

6.出现否定词要划下来;出现says 答案一定出现在某人说的话中; 问:how + adj.,可用 very + adj.回答

五、选择题 ㈠单项选择题

1.快速扫描题干,不看选项,画出题干中核心词

2.磁带开始后,再扫描题干(核心词),并依次扫描选项,比较四个选项之间的相同与不同(纵向扫描)3.所听即所得原则 4.一些常见做题原则:

a.顺序原则:磁带上出现好几个选项,最后一个提到的是正确答案 b.最近答案原则:选项中没有和原文完全重合的,找离原文最近的选项 c.陌生词原则:答案中有极陌生的词,一般不予考虑 d.同质相斥原则

e.何时核对答案:每个section结尾有30秒,根据印象对没有做出的选项做出判断(10-15s),剩下时间看下一个section。听力结束后,有10m抄写答案,用4m, 其它时间推敲答案。f.一般不要检查,如检查只检查是否符合常识 g.不要选择太绝对性的判断

㈡多项选择题:(选项在5个以上)(常和表格合在一起出)

1.基本解题思路和单选一致,先扫描问题划出核心词(遇到生词:a.猜测发音b.划出作为核心词)2.多选题会明确告知正确答案数量

3.注意答案写法(一个空写一个,唯一性)4.小心经典陷阱

六、填空题

㈠ 单句填空题(所给仅仅是一个句子,要求填空)1.看题:a.划核心词(否定形式要划,一定重读)b.划空前后处

2. 听题:a.注意核心词或其同义词的出现 b.抓住空前后处的出现。㈡ summary(总结填空题)

出题频率高、密度大(远高于一般的35~40s/题),难度大(听到和看到不完全一致,考同义词的转换)1.只读出题句子,并划出核心词和空前后。2.抓出现空格句子的基本结构。

3.听写时抓核心词的同义词的出现;句子结构的替换;若未听到同义词和同意句则抓反复出现的核心词 4.可以适当割肉。

5.写答案时,可以使用简写形式gym,dorm,fridge,u.s.,u.k,或开头字母,补全在每个section结尾做。6.填空关键:能不能抓住句子的基本句型结构;能不能把听到的信息记下来。(听写练习)

㈢ outline(提纲填空题)信息量比较大,但出题量不大(考验阅读水平)

1.第一遍读题时,当作阅读题来读。寻找醒目处:标题,副标题,黑体字,斜体字,下划线„„ 2.第二遍只看出题句子,并划出句子中核心词和空前后 3.听题:注意核心词或其同义词的出现;抓住空前后处的出现。4.其他同summary 经典陷阱——如果看到填空题左右有一个用英文字母表示的数字,则空中一定填阿拉伯数字 小技巧:单词拼写不会可尝试到题目中去找

七、图画题:

1.先看问题,后看图(带着问题看图)熟悉描述人物外表特征的词 2.看图看出差别来

八、搭配题(解决两组概念的联系)1.迅速浏览题目要求,看是否可以进行一一搭配

2.迅速浏览题干和选项,确定可能的搭配关系(如果题目和选项数目一致,则是一一搭配;选项少于题干,少一个则有一个选项用两次,但每个选项都会用到;选项大于题干,则每个选项最多用一次,还有没用到的选项。)

3.迅速浏览题目和选项,并划出核心词。

4.当听力磁带开始时,确定听力磁带是以题干顺序还是以选项顺序展开。如果磁带以选项顺序展开,眼睛来回扫描题干;如果以题干顺序展开,眼睛扫描选项。5.实在听不懂,则当阅读题做。找题干和选项之间的同义关系。

九、个人信息表格:考察写人名、地名、数字、专有名词的能力

1.熟悉常考的项目写法:姓名、性别、电话号码、日期。注意数字和字母的混 合编码(邮政编码、车牌号)2.扫描题干,画核心词。3.注意信息修正和非直接信息

4.分辨十几和几十:抓最后的音,确定不了猜几十

十、图例题

1.扫描题目要求,确定图例性质,看图中有无暗示说话人说话顺序的图例 2.迅速扫描图形扫描图中说明性信息,并特别关注图形中的特殊符号 3.图例题符合顺序原则,所填内容具有相同性质 4.抓依次出现的专有名词,或一些并列的动词短语

十一、其他: 次序混乱 : 1.常出现在表格题和搭配题中(summary,问答题,选择题一般不会出现)2.看次序混乱是否发生,主要看example的位置——一般在后边做题信息前出现 3.如果次序混乱出现,顺序原则失效。这时做题抓横纵轴交叉点。

高级解题思路:试图理解说话人的说话逻辑、内在逻辑

数字计算题:

1、最好的方法是写出演算过程

2、如听了一堆数字则最后一个为答案

3、男女同学争执不下时,听女同学的 推理归纳题:(少见,较难)

1、听完磁带后凭整体印象猜

2、割肉

3、回头运用技巧做题 常考场景

1、租房场景(首先辨别是租房还是买房。租房的规律为:离市中心越近,房价越高,位置稍偏,价钱会比较有吸引力,但便宜的房子一般有不理想的地方;另外电话询问看房子时:意为配备家具。)

2、课外研究场景.(主要是在课外研究一些小的项目,小的调查研究,包括对学校里各个地方,食品(咖啡、小吃)等价格的比较。对这些东西不可不屑一顾,这也是与文化背景有关,外国人注重从小培养人的实践能力,看《成长的烦恼》中那个小男孩本,研究毛毛虫那么用心就可理解了。这部分主要注意听力,特别关注的是人名,并注意先判断男女。)

3、图书馆场景考点为:使用须知、作品名称、哪年出版、作者姓名、借出费用、几时到期、欠款多少等。

4、地理场景(城市基本概况:name, population, climate, language, main industry, main attractions,advantage/disadvantage)一般是司机、导游

5、计算机房场景(计算机基本软硬件术语,网络术语)

6、选课场景course shopping(课程名称、课程安排、对语言的选择、选择级别、选课的时间和日期以及申请人)

7、新生报到会orientation talk(一般向新生介绍学校的设施,选课情况,注意事项、学校的历史,如何注册,应该做什么,不应该做什么。)

8、度假场景(度假地的选择、交通工具的选择和住处的选择,订机票、房间(细节)

9、日程活动介绍场景(包括会议、节日、组织旅游等。要避免经典陷阱,即听力原文出现的并不是所需要的答案。另外常考的是会议地点,一般是在国家的首都。)

10、个人健康场景如个人饮食计划、营养专家做健康膳食设计等。

11、授课场景(教授开讲座、学生做论文专题讨论等。)把握头尾

12、学生银行服务

13、电话留言 you have reached + 电话号码,please leave the message

optometrist 配镜师 checkup 检查

基本技巧训练

一、数字 1.电话号码

a.“0”表示方法,zero,nought, null, nil, nothing等,在ielts考试中“0”常念作“nought”;在电话号码中 “0” 读作字母”oh”,就像在单词“go”中的发音。

b.读电话号码总的规则是:国家代号、地区代号和具体号码分开来读,比如中国北京的一个电话读作86,10,87654321,对于一个特定地区的电话,一般来说只有7位或8位。7位的号码,读的时候前三位一组连在一起,后四位一组连在一起,中间有一个停顿,比如6254598读作six two five,four five nine eight;8位的号码,可以四个一组来读。

c.两个相同数字或三个相同的数字可以用double或triple来代替,比如2246555可以读作double two four,six triple five。

d.末尾出现三个零,可以按“千”来发音,如9796000读作nine seven nine six thousand e.数字加字母的组合,注意两个o和w的区别 2.门牌号 以数量读出

花园街197号——garden road one hundred and ninety seven 3.数量的分位计数

billion,million,thousand,看逗号并与之相应单位连接起来,用英文数法,先写下逗号 4.分数

分子是基数,分母是序数 分子大于1时,分母加s 5.小数 小数点读point 零点几中的零可省略,直接读point,0.25——point two five 6.百分比 percent,per cent,% 7.时间

a.具体日期(dmy或mdy)

建议:日子用阿拉伯数字,月份用缩写:jan,feb, mar, apr, may, jun,jul,aug,sept,oct,nov,dec b.上下午

am/a.m./a.m., am---错误,下午类推 c.年代

90’s/’90s/90s’ d.世纪

一、雅思听力基本解题思路:读、猜、听、写、查 1.读猜环节:抢时间读题,预测,猜测答案的性质和类型 2.听写环节:边听边写

3.检查环节:(1)每个section结束30秒应该抽出10—15秒检查上个section:补全简写形式;凭印象猜测答案。

(2)听力考试结束后,4分钟把答案誊写完毕,边写边检查拼写、大小写、单复数、语法。剩余六分种全面检查,推敲答案。二、十种题型 分题型做,分场景听

三、做题原则

1.顺序原则(听到多个可能是答案中,一般正确的是最后一个)2. 割肉原则:做题要有节奏感,碰到一题不会做放弃。

割肉技巧:时间、地点、人名、数字、专有名词不能放弃;抓住两边,舍弃中间。想考高分不要轻易割肉。3. 常识原则:运用常识猜题 4. 积极原则:多猜积极少猜消极。

四、基本技巧

1. 语气突变要注意(突升或突降)。

2. 雅思听力中人名注意的问题:出现人名,立即判断其性别 3. 题目中遇到生词,必须猜测它的发音

4. 做完整个section后再回头猜测不会的答案,并注意和周围example保持一致。学会看例子,从中获取有用信息。

五、常考内容:

1. 数字,人名,地名5——8题(雅思对人名的要求:掌握常见英文名的拼写,可根据人名判断性别)2. 常考语法点:a.现在完成时(推断过去情况,解释过去和现在关系),b.定语从句,c.指代关系

六、判卷

1.听平时没背过的的人名、地名,拼写完全符合英语的发音规则,那么绝对算对 2. 考官一般以核心词有否出现作为判断正误的标志

七、考试要注意的问题

1.不是要考九分,有的题目肯定不会做 2.我不会做,别人也不会做

3.每一个section都是一个崭新的开始

4.一定要试好耳机,出现故障,不要自己动,请考官来换
