听力原文：M: Doctor White,[22]we recently learned that a large piece of the Larsen Ice Shelf in Western Antarctica broke off in early January. Could you please tell us exactly what happened?W: I’d be happy to. The piece that broke off was over a thousand square miles in area. More recently and quite alarming to scientists is that the forty-mile crack, some thirty feet wide in places has torn through the ice shelf.M: I
understand that the Scientific Community is quite concerned. What is the significance of these events?W: Well, some scientists believe that this is a clear sign of global warming. Back in 1978, some American researchers predicted that Antarctica would show early signs of global warming due to the greenhouse effect.M: But couldn’t crumbling ice shelves also be a result of the unusual weather Antarctica itself has experienced lately?W: That’s certainly possible.[24]But you have to remember that over the past thousands of years, ice shelves have been through a lot of weather changes without breaking up. Remember too that although ice shelves float on the ocean, they are attached to the continent and can be as thick as a thousand feet.M: I think most people know that if the ice cap over Antarctica melts, the level of the oceans will rise. What’s sort of impact will this have?W: Well, the ice shelves currently insulate the Antarctic continent from wind, which slows down melting. But without ice shelves to cool the wind, it would be warmer than usual as it flows over Antarctica.[25]If the winds cause even a tenth of the continent’s ice to melt, the world’s oceans could rise as much as thirty feet.22. What are the speakers mainly discussing?23. What is the significance of ice cracking, according to some scientists?24. Why doesn’t the woman believe that weather is responsible for the recent events?25. What would ice melting probably result in, according to the woman?
12．
A．An experiment in Antarctica.
B．The breaking off of the Larsen Ice Shelf.
C．The formation of the Larsen Ice Shelf.
D．An expedition to Antarctica.
正确答案：B

Section BDirections: In this section, you will hear 3 short 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.
听力原文：Some of the most practical lessons coming out of research in psychology are the area of memory. People ask, why can’t I remember that term from the physical chapter or the date my library books are due? Well, for a lot of people, memory may be weak, because they don’t use it enough.[26]It’s like a muscle. If you don’t exercise it, it won’t stay strong. That’s why it’s important to keep our mind active, to keep on learning throughout our life. We can do this by reading, playing memory games and seeking out new experiences. More likely, the lives you all live are so busy and stimulating that this in itself may sometimes interfere with learning. First, the information needs to be recorded, in other words, learned. And for busy people like you and me, that will be where the real problem often lies. If we are distracted, or we are trying to think what we are going to do next, the incoming message just might not be getting recorded effectively. And that leads to the first tip for students who want to improve their memories.[27]Give your full attention to the information you hope to retain. Research clearly shows the advantages of this, and also of active learning, of consciously trying to visualize a new fact, perhaps to make a mental picture, even a wildly ridiculous one, so the new fact will stick in memory.[28]Let me illustrate that for you here a little more concretely.26. What does the speaker try to illustrate with the example of muscle?27. What does the speaker suggest students do to learn information more effectively?28. What will the speaker
probably do next?
16．
A．The need to exercise the memory.
B．How the brain differs from other body tissues.
C．The unconscious learning of a physical activity.
D．The necessity of a good memory.
正确答案：A
解析：推断题。

听力原文：Abraham Lincoln, the sixteenth president of the United States, was born in Kentucky in 1809, and died in Washington in 1865. He is comparable with Washington in greatness of contributions, but[29]is nearer the heart of all Americans because he rose from the ranks of the common people. Because his family were pioneers in the newly settled West, he had practically no regular education, but he was determined to pursue knowledge in every possible way. Stories are told of how he walked miles to get a book and how he studied by the light of the fire at night after a hard day at farm work. After a hard struggle as clerk, village postmaster, and surveyor, he succeeded in passing the examinations, and became a lawyer in Springfield, Illinois. In 1858, he might have gained his place in the United States
Senate if he had not entered the famous debates against slavery with Stephen Douglas.[30]These debates spread his fame throughout the country and led the way for his election to the presidency in 1860. Very shortly after his election, certain Southern states broke away from the Unions, and the Civil War broke out. This strengthened Lincoln in his resolve to free the slaves and on January 1st, 1863, he declared the Emancipation Proclamation.[31]His second inaugural speech gave his plan for building up the peace of the nation, but he did not live to accomplish his desire.29. Why is Lincoln considered to be near the heart of all Americans?30. What gained a widespread reputation for Lincoln before the election in 1860?31. What did Lincoln plan to do in his second term of presidency?
19．
A．He was friendly to his people.
B．He was born in an average family.
C．He freed the slaves.
D．He didn’t have any regular education.

Once you are a little more familiar with basic film terminology, we will be ready to look at the history of movies in the United States. You will be expected to attend showings of films on Tuesday evening at 7 o’clock at Jennings Auditorium, that’s our lab.[33]Then during our Wednesday seminar, we will discuss in depth the movie we saw the night before. We’re not covering silent movies in this course. We will first begin with talking about motion picture, The Jazz Singer, released in 1927.[34]The next week we’ll be looking at The Gold Digger of 1933, a piece that is very representative of the escapist trend in films released during the Depression. Some of the films we will be watching may be new to you, like Frank Capra’s Why We Fight. Others you might have already seen on TV, like Rebel without a Cause starring James Deane, or Stanley Cooper’s Doctor’s Strange Love. However, I hope you will see even familiar films with new eye.[35]In the last three weeks of the course, we will be watching films from the 1980s, and you will choose one of them as the subject for an extensive written review. We will talk more about requirements of the critique later in the semester.32. What will the students do in the first two classes?33. What is the students’schedule for Wednesday?34.
