A Reply to A Friend
Dear John,
I received your letter yesterday. In reply to your inquiry about applying for admission to my university, I would like to give you the following suggestions.
My school is a comprehensive university with such disciplines as science, engineering, the arts, economy, management, law and education. Among all the majors, I suggest that you should apply for the major of computer science and technology. There are some reasons for this suggestion. First, the computer personnel are in great demand owing to the widespread use of computers in every field. Therefore, you can find a job easily if you have a degree in this major. Second, my university has first-rate facilities and excellent teachers in this field. You will definitely benefit from studying in my university. There are some requirements for this major. To begin with, you must have a good foundation in math and English. Knowledge in these two subjects is essential for doing well in this major. In addition, you have to pay a higher tuition fee than students of other majors. Of course, you have to make some preparations for the test. On the one hand, you need to learn something about the computer. On the other hand, you should have basic knowledge about English before coming to the university. Otherwise, you will have difficulty in learning well in this major. I hope the above suggestions helpful to you. Wish you good luck. Yours Sincerely,
David

57. D 本题考查作者的观点，属于综合主旨题。

根据第二段except the successful outcome
和文章最后一长句，可以得出婴儿之所以会学会一些行为是因为他们通过这些行为可
以获得成功的感觉。

A项是人们以往的观点，B项和C项只是表面的原因，并不是实际
原因，所以正确答案为D。

58. B 本题为细节题。

根据第三段第一句话，Papousek通过使用用牛奶奖励孩子的办法，166 Model Test 1
就是为了教会孩子完成一些简单的动作。

所以ACD都不是此举的目的，正确答案为
B。

59. C 本题为细节题。

根据第三段第二句话，Papousek在研究中发现，婴儿吃饱之后会
拒绝牛奶，但是还会继续重复已经学会的动作，说明即使不给牛奶，他们也会重复
一些简单动作，因此A不正确。

B, D内容基本一致，这两项都不是Papousek要去发
现的东西。

C项符合原文，故为正确答案。

60. A 本题为细节题。

根据文章最后一句话，Papousek得出结论：婴儿感到高兴的不是
因为灯光，而是因为他们所获得的解决问题和掌握技能后的成功感，再有就是人类
本身有一种理解世界、控制世界的渴求。

B, C, D项都没有提及，正确答案为A。

61. D 本题为细节题，根据见上题。

正确答案为D。

62. A 本题为主旨题。

文章讲述人类从前人那里继承了许多文化成果，并将其传乘下
去，所以文章主题为文化继承。

答案为A。

63. C 本题为是非题。

文章第二段开始讲述文化的定义，它包括一代人传给另一代人的
所有思想、知识、做事的方法、习惯、价值观以及处世态度等，文章后半部分又阐
述文化与本能的不同，因此A, B, D都属于文化的范畴，C项不属于文化，故正确答
案为C。

64. B 本题为语义题，需要根据上下文来推断。

根据原文“it can store new information, infinitely more rapidly than the process of mutation and biological evolution…”, 可以
推断出mutation 和biological evolution表达相近的意思，是“变化、进化”的意思，而exchange指“交换、兑换”, communication指“交际、交流”, existence指“生存”，故正确答案为B。

65. D 本题为推断题。

根据文章第一句话，人类的发明创造是永无止境的，所以A项与
原文一致。

根据第一段“this process of cultural transmission yields enormous economy”,
B项与此句意思一致。

C项与原文第二句话意思一致，同时根据这一句，人类
最大的发明创造就是不去发明创造，而是继承前辈的文化传统，所以D项与原文不
符。

正确答案为D。

66. B 本题为推断题。

根据文章最后一句话“The transmission of culture is more flexible
than instinct, and can grow…more rapidly than the process of mutation and biological evolution…”, 可以推断出文化传播比生物本能发展要快得多，反过来也就是说生物
本能也在发展，但是速度要比文化传播慢得多，因此可以推断出B项为正确答案，A
项和C项与原文相反，D项原文没有提及。

Part V. Cloze
67-86: C B A B D C A D B A C D C B A B D D A C
67. C 原句意思是：此项研究为人们意想不到的，因此C符合句意。

A为“震惊”，B为“激动”，D为“迷惑”，均不符题意。

68. B 此句not only之后应为倒装，并且feeling是复数形式，故选B。

69. A 此句的意思是：人的情感不仅很难用语言描述清楚，而且很难一一列举出来，所
以答案选择A。

70. B 此句的意思是：几乎没有人对有多少种情感达成一致意见，C和D不符句意,
scarcely表示“几乎不”（程度）, rarely表示“几乎不”（频率），所以选择B。

Band Four 167
71. D 前三项为近义词，意思是“重要的”，而此句指的是人最基本的情感，所以选D。

72. C 此句为that引导的定语从句，修饰something，故只能选C。

73. A 这里这种积极的情感是指“快乐、高兴”，所以正确答案为“joy”。

其他三项不符
题意。

74. D search for 意思是“寻找、寻求”，其他三项都不正确。

75. B as a rule是固定词组，意思是“一般来说”。

76. A 这里填的词和reach the desired goal 表达同样的意思，即，“实现或获得目标”，所
以应选择“obtain”。

77. C for 引出附加的理由，应置于句尾。

since引出显而易见的理由。

when 和if不符题
意。

故正确答案为C。

78. D 此句意思是：既然人们经常渴望不同的目标，所以有人在修理汽车中找到快乐，
而有人在解数学题中找到快乐，这些都是可以理解的。

所以应选D。

79. C 前后两句表示对照，故选C。

80. B 根据后文“We can experience the joy together”，此句意思是“分享共同的目标和兴趣”，故选share。

cultivate意思是“培养”, develop是“发展”, form是“形成”，均不符合
句意。

81. A 此表达方式的意思是“养家”，故选A。

82. B 此句的固定搭配为“have difficulty in doing sth.”, 故选B。

83. D bad意思是“糟糕的、坏的”。

incorrect 意思是“不正确的”。

unwilling意思是“不愿意的”。

negative意思是“消极的”。

根据题意应选D。

84. D small指“数量少、体积小”，unnecessary指“不必要的”，less指“较少的”，minor 指“不重要的、琐碎的”，故选D。

85. A 此句意思是“外出赴约时，拉链坏了会让人感到沮丧”。

frustration“沮丧”, sadness
“悲伤”, ignorance“无知”, grief “伤心”，故选A。

86. C 此句意思是：如果你想让某事发生，或者你觉得这件事应该发生，但是有人或物
却阻止其发生，你就会生气了。

所以应该选择should, 正确答案为C。

Scripts:
Section A: Understanding Conversations
Directions: In this section, you will hear 8 short conversations and 2 long conversations. At the end of each conversation, one or more questions will be asked about what was said. Both the conversations and the questions will be spoken only once. After each question there will
be a pause. During the pause, you must read the four choices marked A, B, C and D, and
decide which is the best answer. Then write the corresponding letter on Answer Sheet 2.
Short Conversations.
11. M: I’d like to check those books out and return these.
W: OK, but you are overdue. I’ll have to charge you for three days.
Q: Where does this conversation most probably take place?
12. M: Have you seen Jake around? We are supposed to play tennis now.
W: Well, his racket is here on the sofa.
Q: What does the women imply?
13. W: I heard you got full marks on your physics exam. Congratulations!
M: Thanks. I’m sure you also did a good job.
Q: What’s the probable relationship between the two speakers?
14. W: I left my raincoat in the house. Could you please wait while I go back to get it?
M: Don’t bother. The weatherman said it would clear up by noon.
Q: What does the man suggest the woman do?
15. M: When did you discover your window broken and your belongings missing?
W: Right after getting up, about 6 o’clock. And then I called the police station immediately.
Q: What are the man and the woman talking about?
16. M: Well, I have printed my last name, first name, date of birth and contact information. Anything else?
W: No. That’s all right. We’ll fill in the rest of it if you just sign your name at the bottom.
Q: What has the man been doing?
17. W: The new course is supposed to be easy.
M: Not many students do well in it, though, do they?
Q: What does the man think of the course?
18. W: I wish the teacher would change the record. She has played that song a thousand
times in class.
M: I agree. It used to be one of my favorites before I had to hear it so often.
Q: What do we learn from the conversation?
Band Four 169
Now you will hear two long conversations.
Conversation one
M: Hey Linda, did you get that letter about the new options for food service next
year?
W: Not yet. Are there a lot of changes?
M: There sure are. Instead of paying one fee to cover all meals for the whole school
year, we are now able to choose seven, ten, fourteen or twenty-one meals per
week. They give you a card with the number of meals you get for a week marked
on it.
W: That’s a big change, Tom. And a complicated system.
M: Yeah. It will be much better for people who don’t eat 3 meals a day, seven days a
week in the cafeteria, because they won’t have to pay for meals they don’t eat.
W: So what’s the deal for those who do eat at school all the time?
M: It’s better for them, too. Because the more meals you sign a contract for, the
cheaper each one is.
W: I see. It still sounds rather complicated.
M: True. It took me several hours to figure it out. I decided to go with the ten meals.
W: Why is that?
M: Well, I never eat breakfast and I often go away on weekends. So the ten-meal plan
gives me lunch and dinner each weekday at a fairly low price. And I won’t be paying
for meals I don’t usually eat.
W: What about the weekend when you are on campus?
M: Well, there are often guests on campus on weekends. So they allow you to buy
single meals on a walk-in basis on Saturdays and Sundays. The price per meal is
much higher that way. But I am away so much that it will still be less money for
me to pay single price on the weekends rather than sign up for the fourteen meals
a week plan.
W: Oh. I guess I’ll have to sit down and figure out my eating pattern, so I can get the
best deal.
Questions 19 to 22 are based on the conversation you have just heard.
19. What’s the main characteristic of the new way of paying for meals?
20. When do the students pay for the meals they sign a contract for?
21. What is the advantage of the new plan for those students who eat all their meals at
the school cafeteria?
22. How can guests have meals on campus at weekends?
Conversation two
M: Honey, the basketball game is about to start. Could you bring me some chips and a
bowl of ice cream? And …uh a slice of pizza from the fridge.
W: Anything else?
M: Nope, that’s all for now. Hey, honey, you know, they’re organizing a company basketball team, and I’m thinking about joining. What do you think?
W: Humpf.
170 Model Test 1
M: What do you mean “Humpf”? I was the star player in high school.
W: Yeah, twenty-five years ago. Look, I just don’t want you to have a heart attack running
up and down the court.
M: So, what are you suggesting? Should I just abandon the idea? I’m not that out of shape.
W: Well …you ought to at least get a physical before you begin. I mean, it has been at
least five years since you played at all.
M: Well, okay, but…
W: And you need to watch your diet and cut back on the fatty foods, like the ice
cream. And you should try eating more fresh fruits and vegetables.
M: Yeah, you’re probably right.
W: And you should take up a little weight training to strengthen your muscles or perhaps
try cycling to build up your cardiovascular system. Oh, and you need to go to
bed early instead of watching TV all night.
M: Hey, you’re starting to sound like my personal fitness instructor!
W: No, I just love you and want you around for a long, long time.
M: Thanks.
Questions 23 to 25 are based on the conversation you have just heard.
23. What does the man want to do?
24. What is the woman worried about?
25. Which of the following is not the woman’s advice to the man?
Section B: Understanding Passages
Directions: In this section, you will hear 3 short passages. At the end of each passage, you will hear some questions. Both the passages 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 write the corresponding letter on the Answer sheet 2.
Passage One
Mr. and Mrs. Brown were going abroad for their holiday. They had a dog called
Blackie which they were very fond of. But they could not take him with them, so they
looked for a good place to leave him while they were away, and at last found a place
where dogs were looked after very well while their owners were away. They took Blackie
there just before they left for their holiday, and sadly said goodbye to him.
At the end of their holiday, they got back to England very late at night, and as they
thought that the place where Blackie was staying might be closed at that hour, they decided
to wait until the next morning to get him back.
So the next morning Mr. Brown got into his car and drove off happily to get Blackie.
When he reached home with a dog, he said to his wife, “Do you know, dear, I don’t
think that Blackie can have enjoyed his stay at that place very much. He barked all the
way home in the car as if he wanted to tell me something.”
Band Four 171
Mrs. Brown looked at the dog carefully and then answered, “You are quite right,
dear. He was certainly trying to tell you something. But he wasn’t trying to tell you that
he hadn’t enjoyed his stay at that place. He was only complaining that you were bringing
me the wrong dog home. This isn’t Blackie.”
Questions 26 to 28 are based on the passage you have just heard.
26. How was the dog taken care of when they were abroad for the holiday?
27. Why didn’t they go to get their dog once they had arrived in England?
28. Why did the dog bark all the way home?
Passage Two
The world’s first completely automatic railway was built under the busy streets of
London. The railway is called the Victoria Line, and it is part of the complete London underground railway.
The new Victoria Line was opened in 1969. This new line was very different from
the others.
The stations on the other lines need a lot of workers to sell tickets, and to check
and to collect them when people leave the trains. This is all different on the Victoria Line. Here a machine checks and collects the tickets, and there are no workers on the platforms.
On the train, there is only one worker. If necessary, this man can drive the train.
But usually he just starts it; it runs and stops by itself. The trains are controlled by electrical signals which are sent by so-called “command spots”. The command spots are the same distance apart. Each sends a certain signal. The train always moves at the speed
that the command spots allow. If the command spot sends no signals, the train will stop. Most of the control work is done by computers. The computers also fix the train’s speeds, and send the signals to the command spots.
Other machines make sure that the trains are always a safe distance apart. If one
train stays too long at a station, the other trains will then automatically move slower. So there is no danger of accidents on the line.
Questions 29 to 31 are based on the passage you have just heard.
29. On the Victoria Line, who checks and collects the tickets?
30. What is the job of the only one worker on the Victoria Line train?
31. If there is no signal sent from the command spot, what will happen?
Passage Three
Every part of the United States has special celebrations, depending on the particular national groups that live in the area. In Hawaii, there are many Asians. Many of these Asians are of Japanese, Chinese, or Polynesian decent. Immigrants from China and
Japan arrived in Hawaii in great numbers during the past century. The early Polynesians came to Hawaii from the South Pacific islands more than a thousand years before
any other people. The Asians left rich traditions for their younger generations
172 Model Test 1
to follow. Today, Hawaiians honor the memory of their ancestors with special feasts
and festivals.
Chinese-Hawaiians celebrate the Moon Festival to honor the memory of their
ancestors and their native land. The Moon Festival occurs in August on the night of
the full moon. Unlike the Japanese festival, the Chinese celebration is a simple family occasion. Family members gather in a garden or large open-air space in the light of
the moon. They drink tea and feast on delicious moon-shaped cakes filled with meat
or sweets, depending on their family custom. If the family is from northern China,
the cakes have meat in them; if the family came from southern China, the cakes have a sweet filling. The cakes, an important food on this occasion, represent an event in Chinese history. A long time ago, the people of China used round cakes in a special way:
they sent secret massages to each other in them. The messages gave instructions for the people of the north and south to join together to fight against the evil emperor who
ruled them at that time. The trick worked and the people were able to overthrow their ruler. By recalling this event in the Moon Festival, the Chinese people help to keep their native traditions alive and their family ties strong.
Questions 32 to 35 are based on the passage you have just heard.
32. What three groups of people in Hawaii are mentioned in the passage?
33. Why do Chinese-Hawaiians hold the moon festival?
34. What do the Moon shaped cakes represent according to the passage?
35. Which one is not true about Chinese moon cakes?
Section C: Compound Dictation
Directions: In this section, you will hear a passage three times. When the passage is read for the first
time, you should listen carefully for its general idea. When the passage is read for the second
time, you are required to fill in the blanks numbered from 36 to 43 with the exact
words you have just heard. For blanks numbered from 44 to 46 you are required to fill in
the missing information. For these blanks, you can either use the exact words you have just
heard or write down the main points in your own words. Finally, when the passage is read
for the third time, you should check what you have written.
For most women, the language of (36) conversation is primarily a language of rapport:
a way of (37) establishing connections and negotiating relationships. (38) Emphasis
is placed on displaying similarities and matching experiences. From childhood, girls (39)
criticize their friends who try to stand out or appear better than others. People feel
their (40) closest connections at home, or in places where they feel at home —with
one or a few people they feel close to and comfortable with —in other words, during
private speaking. But even the most public situations can be (41) approached like private
speaking.
For most men, talk is primarily a means to preserve (42) independence and negotiate
and maintain status in a hierarchical (43) social order. (44) This is done by exhibiting
knowledge and skill, and by holding center stage through verbal performance such as storytelling, joking, or conveying information. From childhood, men learn to use
talking as a way to get and keep attention. Therefore, (45) they are more comfortable
speaking in larger groups made up of people they know less well. In the broadest sense,
this is “public speaking”. But even (46) the most private situations can be approached
like public speaking, more like giving a report than establishing rapport.__

June 18, 2002
Dear Wang Hui,
I am sorry that it has taken me so long to reply to your last letter. As you know,
July is the test season, and these days I’m almost up to my ears in preparation for final
exams. But after that will come summer vacation. I’ve already made elaborate plans for
the coming vacation.
F irst of all, I’d like to travel back home and have a good rest. After such along
term of study, I am a little tired. I plan to stay home for about half month, and take
the opportunity to visit our high school teachers and friends. Then I will come back
to school for a one-month remedy class. Through these years I have been given too
much weight to written English, but only to find myself quite weak in oral communication.
So I’ve signed up for an oral English training course to improve my spoken
English.
What is your plan for summer vacation? You mentioned in your last letter that
you would make a trip to Beijing during the summer vacation. Have you made up your
mind?
Looking forward to your reply.
Yours,
