Online Shopping

There are an increasing number of college students who love going shopping online.They are in some sense getting addicted to online shopping for reasons of being convenient, time saving, cost efficient or good after-sale service.The products they purchase via the internet range from learning materials in relation to their study to the articles necessary in their daily lives.No doubt, there is a different side of online shopping as well.In the first place, many products bought this way may turn out to be of low quality, as against what is advertised on the web.In the second place, the shoppers may be cheated, getting nothing after paying a certain amount of money.Lastly, after-sale service may not be guaranteed, for some online shops may go bankruptcy or change hands.As for me, I think we should be careful with online shopping, just as the proverb goes: ¡°Look before you leap¡±.In other words, one should make sure that the price of the product is reasonable and the quality is reliable in advance.ÊÔÌâ´ð°¸

11.M: Tracy, I missed Prof.Shoesmith¡¯s class yesterday for some reasons I can¡¯t tell you now.Could you tell me the assignments he gave us? W: No worries.Prof.Shoesmith was out for a conference and failed to give the lesson.He will not be available to make up for it till next Tuesday.Q: What can¡¯t we infer from the dialogue?

12.W: I¡¯m awfully sorry I¡¯m late again, but I got caught in a traffic jam;you know what transportation was like this time of day.M: Well, it appears that you have more traffic jams than other colleagues.It¡¯s the fourth time you are late within two weeks.Q: What did the man try to indicate?

13.W: Eric said that Tokyo is a great place for holding academic conferences.M: He¡¯s certainly in a position to say that.After all, he¡¯s been there quite often.Q: What does the man consider Eric? 14.W: Mr.Johnathon, I wonder whether it¡¯s possible for me to take a vacation early next month.I want to have a chance to get together with my family members.M: Did you fill up a request form? It¡¯s of necessity to go through some formalities.Q: What is the probable relationship between the two speakers?

15.W: Since you have made so many business trips, you must have visited many cities all over the city.M: I wish I had, but besides many domestic cities, New York and London are the only two foreign cities I¡¯ve ever been to.Q: What does the man mean?

16.W: Would you please, Mr.Smith, tell me what do you feel about child labor?

M: We are supposed to take care of them as young children.Q: What¡¯s the man¡¯s attitude towards child labor?

17.M: That photo definitely highlights Bob¡¯s hair color.How do you consider that?

18.M: Did Iris go to the computer room with you yesterday?

Conversation 1 M: Good morning Butner.Good to have you here.W: Thank you.Good morning

M: And let me start with you, because this clearly was a labor of love for you, I believe, as you have spent the last seven years of your life documenting the lives of these more than 400 teenagers that you connected with in such a real way.Why did you want to do this?

W: You know, I always say this project found me;I didn¡¯t go looking for it.And I think I just have a real sensitivity towards teenagers.And I think that kids are, it¡¯s a misrepresented segment of society.I think there¡¯s a lot of suspicion about teenagers.I think that society doesn¡¯t really know who they are.And I¡¯m always rooting for the underdog.M: Is that the common thread that you found? Did you find that they are, for the most part, the underdogs;I mean that they are really living such complicated lives at such young ages?

W: Oh, absolutely!I think that life is moving really fast these days, and I think that these kids are forced to grow up.And they didn¡¯t ask to grow up this quickly.But it¡¯s been thrust upon them, and they¡¯ve had to, really rally.And I think a lot of kids are facing very big issues in life, you know, much bigger than we had ever, or at least I had ever faced.M: Alright, well, that¡¯s a good message to end on.so much more we¡¯d love to talk with you about.Thank you.Questions 19 to 22 are based on the conversation you have just heard.19.What is the most probable relationship between the man and woman?

20.According to Robin, what kind position are teenagers in?

Conversation 2

W: Morning!So early of you!

M: Hi, I am working on a research task of Prof.Stevenson¡¯s class.W: I missed the class yesterday.Anything interesting?

M: Well, yes, very interesting.His class was about corporate culture and took the Swedish furniture retailer IKEA as an example.W: Oh, really? M: Right, with IKEA¡¯s mission statement ¡°A better life for the majority of people¡±.Have you been in an IKEA store before?

W: Of course.Yeah.Actually my love of its products and working atmosphere pushed me to work part-time in one of its stores last semester.M: Oh.It is a pity you missed yesterday¡¯s class.W: And maybe I will choose IKEA as the start of my career after graduation.M: That¡¯s great you set a goal so early.And this part might be useful for you.W: Hmm, about its recruitment principles.M: See, although getting highly-skilled people is important for IKEA, they will not choose someone with a conflict of value systems with the company.¡°Anyone expecting a flash car or status symbols has no future with us¡± is what they say.And only those who wholly understand and buy into the company¡¯s philosophy can get promoted.W: Interesting.Thanks for the information!

M: Pleasure!

Questions 23 to 25 are based on the conversation you have just heard.23.How does the woman feel when she knew the class was about IKEA?

24.What does the woman think of IKEA¡¯s products?

25.What is IKEA¡¯s philosophy according to the man?

Section B

Passage One

Ni Dan, 20, and two of his classmates were sitting at the front of a long queue outside Gate No.6 of the Shanghai Expo Park.They had been there for six hours and it was just 4 a.m.Sunday.¡°We chose to visit Expo today for three reasons: it¡¯s Expo¡¯s 100th day, it¡¯s the two-year anniversary of the Beijing Olympic Games, plus it¡¯s the eighth day of the eighth month,¡± Ni said.Eight is considered by many Chinese an auspicious number that brings fortune.Coming early is a crucial link to get the limited reservation tickets for the China Pavilion and shorten the hours of waiting outside other pavilions.But a front position on the queue is not enough, ¡°dashing as fast as you can is a must to secure a ticket¡±, according to instructions posted online by experienced visitors.Tickets to the China Pavilion, given out free to visitors who came early, are used to curb waiting hours.With the ticketing system, it usually takes about an hour to enter the China Pavilion.While other popular pavilions often require three to five hours.At its peak, visitors had to wait for eight hours to get into the Saudi Arabia Pavilion.As of 9:36 a.m., more than 127,000 visitors have entered the 5.28-square-km Expo Park.Questions 26 to 28 are based on the passage you have just heard.26.Which of the following is not the reason why Ni Dan chose the date for a visit to the Shanghai Expo?

27.How to get into the Chinese Pavilion for visitors?

28.Since when have there already been 127,000 visitors into the Expo Park?

Passage Two

Life as we know it would simply not exist without plants.Biopersity--the web of all life on Earth--depends fundamentally on plants and fungi.Plants are used by every human being on the planet, every single day.Just think of what you ate for breakfast this morning, the cup of coffee at your desk, the clothes you¡¯re wearing.Plants provide the human race with food, fuel, medicine, clothing and shelter, whether we live in the countryside or a modern city, in Europe or sub-Saharan Africa.Plants provide invaluable services, they provide us with the very air we breathe, clean water and fertile soil and they help regulate the climate.Plants also provide habitats and food for mammals, birds and invertebrates around the globe.But we are living in an age of acute plant blindness.Somehow, while we make great strides in technology, many of us have forgotten the fundamental importance of the very things on which our lives ultimately depend.Plant persity is being destroyed at a greater rate than ever before and much of this is due to habitat loss through changes in land use.We believe that economic development must go hand in hand with care for the environment.At the Royal Botanic Gardens, Kew, and other botanic gardens around the world, our plant scientists and horticulturists are working towards effective, science-based conservation solutions to ensure that we leave a healthy and hopeful world to the next generation.Questions 29 to 31 are based on the passage you have just heard.29.What does biopersity depend mainly on, according to the passage?

30.What does the phrase ¡°plant blindness¡± refer to?

31.In order to leave a healthy and hopeful world to the next generation, what do we have to do?

Passage Three

Why aren¡¯t there more women physicists, and in senior positions? One factor may be unconscious biases that could keep women physicists from advancing¡ªand may even prevent women from going into physics in the first place.Amy Bug, a physicist at Swarthmore College, examined the bias question.Her research team trained four actors¡ªtwo men, two women¡ªto give a 10-minute physics lecture.Real physics classes watched the lecturers.Then the 126 students were surveyed.When it came to questions of physics ability¡ªwhether the lecturer had a good grasp of the material, and knew how to use the equipment¡ªmale lecturers got higher ratings by both male and female students.But when asked how well the lecturer relates to the students, each gender preferred their own.And while female students gave a slight preference to female lecturers, male students overwhelmingly rated the male lecturers as being superior.The research appears in the journal Physics World.Bug says the results may be evidence of inherent biases that could hold women back¡ªalong with economic inequalities, such as lower wages and smaller start-up grants.Which reduce career acceleration and thus the amount of force available to crack the glass ceiling?

Questions 32 to 35 are based on the passage you have just heard.32.According to the passage, what¡¯s the factor that woman physicists are fewer than men physicists?

33.How many students were surveyed in the lectures? 34.Which of the following sentences is wrong when asked how well the lecturer relates to the students.35.Which of the following is the other field also mentioned in the passage, in which women suffer a lot from gender discrimination?

Section C In 1995, Ryan Schreiber was a 19-year-old Minneapolis record-store clerk who wanted to publish a rock-music fanzine but lacked access to a photocopier.Instead, he started a website, called it Pitchfork and began posting his thoughts on bands like Sonic Youth, Fugazi and the Pixies ¡ª groups whose songs rarely appeared on the radio or MTV.It was the first golden age of ¡°indie¡± artists, back when the word was shorthand for music released on independent record labels, signifying the artistic freedom and cachet that came from operating on the fringes.By 2000, Schreiber had moved the site to Chicago, acquired some freelance writers and codified the Pitchfork review into a signature formula ¡ª a long, rambling personal opinion of an album, accompanied by a rating on a scale from 0.0 to 10.0.But the site¡¯s readership was still, to use his word, ¡°negligible.¡± That changed in October of that year, when Pitchfork posted a fawning, grandiloquent 10.0 review of Radiohead¡¯s experimental rock album Kid A.Critic Brent DiCrescenzo¡¯s paean included lines like ¡°butterscotch lamps along the walls of the tight city square bled upward into the cobalt sky¡± and became an Internet sensation ¡ª for all the wrong reasons.Then an odd thing happened: people made fun of the prose, but they kept reading Pitchfork.Schreiber and his writers knew what they were talking about;Kid A., which later

debuted at No.1 on Billboard, really was a 10.0 album.Pitchfork¡¯s reviews of artists previously considered unknown or underground, began to act as stepping-stones to mainstream coverage.In the year of 2000, Modest Mouse moved from independent label Up Records to Sony-owned Epic;by 2005, they had performed on Saturday Night Live, been nominated for two Grammys.Their songs are now used in car commercials.

Part I Writing

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

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?

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?

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 2003, 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 2003, a big drop from 37 percent 22 years ago.

Part I Writing

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

Section A Directions: In this section, you will hear two long conversations.At the end of each conversation, you will hear some questions.Both the conversation 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 1with a single line through the centre.Conversation One

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?

Conversation Two

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?

6.How many patients survive Ebola infection in West Africa? 7.What symptoms did survivors in Liberia develop after leaving hospital? 8.What problems does memory loss cause for Ebola survivors?

Section B Directions: In this section, you will hear two 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

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?

16.A 17.B 18.C 19.B

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 2015, 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 2015? 22.What does the study say about girls in the world‟s poorest countries?

20.A 21.C 22.D

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?

Part IV Translation

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 2050 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.

新东方英语四级笔记——听力第一课

第一课 为什么听不懂

在这里推荐一下一个对我英语四级听力有很大影响的新东方英语老师，李旭老师，他之前是做播音主持的，后来来到新东方教英语。为什么喜欢他呢，觉得他说话比较实在，讲的内容也比较容易听懂。话不多说，开始第一课吧。

一、为什么我们听不懂

1、习惯问题。

举例说明：当我们听汉字时，我们可以直接从音到义，但是听英语时中间就会有一个停顿，过程是音到形再到义，换句话说当我们想到义时，别人听力早就念着走了。比如当你听到“What you say if i buy your some hamburgers after the lecture.“当我们听到这句话时，我们会翻一下白眼然后再想，他到底在说什么。而按照四级每分钟120个单词的速度，也就是每秒2个单词的速度，我们翻一下白眼至少有6个单词被我们忽略。

1.那为什么出现这种情况呢？

答案就是我们背单词的习惯，想想我们以前背单词的时候，一般都是左边写英文，右边写汉字。情况

一、挡住英文根据汉字去想英文怎么写，我们练的是写作词汇。情况

二、挡住汉字去看英文，然后想这汉字是什么意思，我们练的是阅读词汇。我们可以注意到整个过程被大家忽略掉的就是怎么发音，很多人会说我发音不好听怎么办。这里引用一下李老师原话”你发音难听，难受的又不是你"。

2.3 如果不读会有什么影响？ 第一类

词

1)apple、banana这类词我们一听就知道意思(总结一下这类词是我们熟悉的)2)thunderboit霹雳火这类词我们一听马上晕了(总结一下这类词是我们不熟的)3)hamburger汉堡包这类词我们一听感觉认识，但又突然想不起(总结一下这类词是我们最应该努力掌握的)总结：背单词一定要记住怎么发音，只有多读才能在脑中产生印象。
