Each passage is followed by somequestions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A), B), C)and D). You should decide on the best choice and mark the corresponding letter on the AnswerSheet with a single line through the centre.Passage OneQuestions 21 to 25 are based on the following passage:In the 1920s demand for American farm products fell, as European countries began to recoverfrom World War I and instituted austerity (紧缩) programs to reduce their imports. The resultwas a sharp drop in farm prices. This period was more disastrous for farmers than earlier timeshad been, because farmers were no longer self-sufficient. They were paying for machinery,seed, and fertilizer, and they were also buying consumer goods. The prices of the itemsfarmers bought remained constant, while prices they received for their products fell. Thesedevelopments were made worse by the Great Depression, which began in 1929 and extendedthroughout the 1939s.In 1929, under President Herbert Hoover, the Federal FarmBoard was organized. Itestablished the principle of direct interference with supply and demand, and it representedthe first national commitment to provide greater economic stability for farmers.President Hoover's successor attached even more importance to this problem. One of the firstmeasures proposed by President Franklin D. Roosevelt when he took office in 1933 was theAgricultural Adjustment Act, which was subsequently passed by Congress. This law gave theSecretary of Agriculture the power to reduce production through voluntary agreements withfarmers who were paid to take their land out of use. A deliberate scarcity of farm productswas planned in an effort to raise prices. This law was declared unconstitutional by the SupremeCourt on the grounds that general taxes were being collected to pay one special group ofpeople. However, new laws were passed immediately that achieved the same result of restingsoil and providing flood-control measures, but which were based on the principle of soilconservation. The Roosevelt Administration believed that rebuilding the nation's soil was in thenational interest and was not simply a plan to help farmers at the expense of other ter the government guaranteed loans to farmers so that they could buy farm machinery,hybrid (杂交) grain, and fertilizers.21.What brought about the decline in the demand for American farm products?A) The impact of the Great Depression.B) The shrinking of overseas markets.C) The destruction caused by the First World War.D) The increased exports of European countries.22.The chief concern of the American government in the areaof agriculture in the 1920s was______ .A) to increase farm productionB) to establish agricultural lawsC) to prevent farmers from going bankruptD) to promote the mechanization of agriculture23.The Agricultural Adjustment Act encouraged American farmers to ______.A) reduce their scale of productionB) make full use of their landC) adjust the prices of their farm productsD) be self-sufficient in agricultural production24.The Supreme Court rejected the Agricultural Adjustment Act because it believed that the Act______.A) might cause greater scarcity of farm productsB) didn't give the Secretary of Agriculture enough powerC) would benefit neither the government nor the farmersD) benefited one group of citizens at the expense of others25.It was claimed that the new laws passed during the Roosevelt Administration were aimed at______.A) reducing the cost of farminB) conserving soil in the long-term interest of the nationC) lowering the burden of farmersD) helping farmers without shifling the burden onto other taxpayersPassage TwoQuestions 26 to 30 are based on the following passage:In the 1950s, the pioneers of artificial intelligence (AI) predicted that, by the end of thiscentury, computers would be conversing with us at work and robots would be performing ourhousework. But as useful as computers are, they're nowhereclose to achieving anythingremotely resembling these early aspirations f or humanlike behavior. Never mind something ascomplex as conversation: the most powerful computers struggle to reliably recognize theshape of an object, the most elementary of tasks for a ten-month-old kid.A growing group of AI researchers think they know where the field went wrong . The problem,the scientists say, is that AI has been trying to separate the highest, most abstract levels ofthought, like language and mathematics, and to duplicate them with logical, step-by-stepprograms. A new movement in AI, on the other hand, takes a closer look at the moreroundabout way in which nature came up with intelligence. Many of these researchers studyevolution and natural adaptation instead of formal logic and conventional computerprograms. Rather than digital computers and transistors, some want to work with brain cellsand proteins . The results of these early efforts are as promising as they are peculiar, and thenew nature-based AI movement is slowly but surely moving to the forefront of the field.Imitating the brain's neural (神经的) network is a huge step in the right direction, sayscomputer scientist and biophysicist Michael Conrad, but it still misses an important aspect ofnatural intelligence. "People tend to treat the brain as if it were made up of color-codedtransistors", he explains, "but it's not simply a clever network of switches. There are lots ofimportant things going on inside the brain cells themselves." Specifically, Conrad believes thatmany of the brain's capabilities stem from the patternrecognition proficiency of the individualmolecules that make up each brain cell. The best way to build and artificially intelligentdevice, he claims, would be to build it around the same sort of molecular skills.Right now, the option that conventional computers and software are fundamentallyincapable of matching the processes that take place in the brain remains controversial. But ifit proves true, then the efforts of Conrad and his fellow AI rebels could turn out to be the onlygame in town.26.The author says that the powerful computers of today ______.A) are capable of reliably recognizing the shape of an objectB) are close to exhibiting humanlike behaviorC) are not very different in their performance from those of the 50'sD) still cannot communicate with people in a human language27.The new trend in artificial intelligence research stems from ______.A) the shift of the focus of study on to the recognition of the shapes of objectsB) the belief that human intelligence cannot be duplicated with logical, step-by-stepprogramsC) the aspirations of scientists to duplicate the intelligence of a ten-month-old childD) the efforts made by scientists in the study of the similarities between transistors and braincells28.Conrad and his group of AI researchers have been making enormous efforts to ______.A) find a roundabout way to design powerful computersB) build a computer using a clever network of switchesC) find out how intelligence developed in natureD) separate the highest and most abstract levels of thought29.What's the author's opinion about the new AI movement?A) It has created a sensation among artificial intelligence researchers but will soon die out.B) It's a breakthrough in duplicating human thought processes.C) It's more like a peculiar game rather than a real scientific effort.D) It may prove to be in the right direction though nobody is sure of its future prospects.30.Which of the following is closest in meaning to the phrase "the only game in town" (Line 3,Para. 4)?A) The only approach to building an artificially intelligent computer.B) The only way for them to win a prize in artificial intelligence research.C) The only area worth studying in computer science.D) The only game they would like to play in town.Passage ThreeQuestion 31 to 35 are based on the following passage:Cars account for half the oil consumed in the U.S., about half the urban pollution and onefourth the greenhouse (温室) gases. They take a similar oll of (损耗) resources in otherindustrial nations and in the cities of the developing world . As vehicle use continues toincrease in the coming decade, the U.S. and other countries will have to deal with these issuesor else face unacceptable economic , health-related and political costs. It is unlikely that oilprices will remain at their current low level or that other nations will accept a large and growingU.S. contribution to global climatic change.Policymakers and industry have four options: reduce vehicle use, increase the efficiency andreduce the emissions ofconventional gasoline-powered vehicles, switch to less harmful fuels,or find less polluting driving systems. The last of these-in particular the introduction ofvehicles powered by electricity — is ultimately the only sustainable option. The otheralternatives are attractive in theory but in practice are either impractical or offer onlymarginal improvements. For example, reduced vehicle use could solve traffic problems and ahost of social and environmental problems, but evidence from around the world suggests thatit is very difficult to make people give up their cars to any significant ex tent. In the U.S., mass-transit ridership and carpooling (合伙用车) have decline d since World War II. Even in westernEurope, with fuel prices averaging more than $ 1 a liter (about $ 4 a gallon) and with easilyaccessible mass transit and dense populations, cars still account for 80 percent of allpassenger travel.Improved energy efficiency is also appealing, but automotive fuel economy has barely madeany progress in 10 years. Alternative fuels such as natural gas, burned in internal-combustionengines, could be introduced at relatively low cost, but they would lead to only marginalreductions in pollution and greenhouse emissions (especially because oil companies arealready spending billions of dollars every year to develop less polluting types of gasoline).31.From the passage we know that the increased use of cars will ______.A) consume half of the oil produced in the worldB) have serious consequences for the well-being of all nationsC) widen the gap between the developed and developing countriesD) impose an intolerable economic burden on residents of large cities32.The U.S. has to deal with the problems arising from vehicle use because ______.A. most Americans are reluctant to switch to public transportation systemsB) the present level of oil prices is considered unacceptableC) other countries will protest its increasing greenhouse emissionsD) it should take a lead in conserving natural resources33.Which of the following is the best solution to the problems mentioned in the passage?A) The designing of highly efficient car engines.B) A reduction of vehicle use in cities.C) The development of electric cars.D) The use of less polluting fuels.34.Which of the following is practical but only makes a marginal contribution to solving theproblem of greenhouse emissions?A) The use of fuels other than gasoline.B) Improved energy efficiency.C) The introduction of less polluting driving systems.D) Reducing car use by carpooling35.Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the passage?A) The decline of public transportation accounts for increased car use in western Europe.B) Cars are popular in western Europe even though fuel prices are fairly high.C) The reduction of vehicle use is the only sustainable optionin densely populated westernEurope.D) Western European oil companies cannot sustain the cost of developing new-type fuels.Passage FourQuestions 36 to 40 are based on the following passage:Reebok executives do not like to hear their stylish athletic shoes called “ footwear for yuppies(雅皮士，少壮高薪职业人士)”. They contend that Reebok shoes appeal to diverse marketsegments, especially now that the company offers basketball and children's shoes for theunder-18 set and walking shoes for older customers not interested in aerobics (健身操)orrunning. The executives also point out that through recent acquisitions they have added hikingboots, dress and casual shoes, and high-performance athletic footwear to their product lines,all of which should attract new and varied groups of customers.Still, despite its emphasis on new markets, Reebok plans few changes in the upmarket (高档消费人群的)retailing network that helped push sales to $ 1 billion annually, ahead of all othersports shoe marketers. Reebok shoes, which are priced from $ 27 to $85, will continue to besold only in better specialty, sporting goods, and department stores, in accordance with thecompany's view that consumers judge the quality of the brand by the quality of itsdistribution.In the past few years, the Massachusetts-based company has imposed limits on the number ofits distributors (and the number of shoes supplied to stores), partly out of necessity. At timesthe unexpected demand for Reebok's exceeded supply, and the company could barely keepup with orders from the dealers it already had. These fulfillment problems seem to be undercontrol now, but the company is still selective about its distributors. Atpresent, Reebokshoes are available in about five thousand retail stores in the United States.Reebok has already anticipated that walking shoes will be the next fitness-related craze,replacing aerobics shoes the same way its brightly colored, soft leather exercise footwearreplaced conventional running shoes. Through product diversification and careful marketresearch, Reebok hopes to avoid the distribution problems Nike came across several yearsago, when Nike misjudged the strength of the aerobics shoe craze and was forced to unloadhuge inventories of running shoes through discount stores.36.One reason why Reebok's managerial personnel don't like their shoes to be called "footwearfor yuppies" is that _______.A) they believe that their shoes are popular with people of different age groupsB) new production lines have been added to produce inexpensive shoesC) "yuppies" usually evokes a negative imageD) the term makes people think of prohibitive prices37.Reebok's view that "consumers judge the quality of the brand by the quality of itsdistribution" (Line 5, Para. 2)implies that ______.A) the quality of a brand is measured by the service quality of the store selling itB) the quality of a product determines the quality of its distributorsC) the popularity of a brand is determined by the stores that sell itD) consumers believe that first-rate products are only sold by high-quality stores38.Reebok once had to limit the number of its distributors because ______.A) its supply of products fell short of demandB) too many distributors would cut into its profitsC) the reduction of distributors could increase its share of the marketD) it wanted to enhance consumer confidence in its products39.Although the Reebok Company has solved the problem of fulfilling its orders, it ______.A) does not want to further expand its retailing networkB) still limits the number of shoes supplied to storesC) is still particular about who sells its productsD) still carefully chooses the manufacturers of its products40.What lesson has Reebok learned from Nike's distribution problems?A) A company should not sell its high quality shoes in discount stores.B) A company should not limit its distribution network.C) A company should do follow-up surveys of its products.D) A company should correctly evaluate the impact of a new craze on the market.Part III Vocabulary (20 minutes)Directions: There are 30 incomplete sentences in this part.

Finally, when the passage is read for the third time, you should check what you have written.When most people think of the word "education," they think of a pupil as a sort of animate sausage casing. Into this empty casing, the teachers(26) stuff "education."But genuine education, as Socrates knew more than two thousand years ago, is not (27 )the stuffings of information intoa person, but rather eliciting knowledge from him; it is the 28 of what is in the mind."The most important part of education," once wrote William Ernest Hocking, the (29) Harvard philosopher, "is this instruction of a man in what he has inside of him. And, as Edith Hamilton has reminded us, Socrates never said, "I know, learn from me." He said, rather, "Look into your own selvers and find the (30) of truth that God has put into every heart, and that only you can kindle (点燃) to a( 31)."In a dialogue, Socrates takes an ignorant slave boy, without a day of (32), and proves to the amazed observers that the boy really "knows" geometry--because the principles of geometry are already in his mind, waiting to be called out.So many of the discussions and (33) about the content of education are useless and inconclusive because they(34) what should "go into" the student rather than with what should be taken out, and how this can best be done.The college student who once said to me, after a lecture, "I spend so much time studying that I dont have a chance to learn anything," was clearly expressing his ( 35 ) with the sausage-casing view of education.Section A 参考答案1.

Seven Steps to a More Fulfilling JobMany people today find themselves in unfulfilling work situations. In fact, one in four workers is dissatisfied with their current job, according to the recent ―Plans for 2004‖ survey. Theircareer path may be financially rewarding, b ut it doesn‘t meet their emotional, social o r creative needs. They‘re stuck, unhappy, and have no idea what to do about it, except move to another job.Mary Lyn Miller, veteran career consultant and founder of the Life and Career Clinic, says that when most people are unhappy about their work, their first thought is to get a different job. Instead, Miller suggests looking at the possibility of a different life. Through her book, 8 Myths of Making a Living, as well as workshops, seminars and personal coaching and consulting, she has helped thousands of dissatisfied workers reassess life and work.Like the way of Zen, which includes understanding of oneself as one really is, Miller encourages job seekers and those dissatisfied with work or life to examine their beliefs about work and recognize that ―in many cases your beliefs are what brought you to where you are today.‖ You may have been raised to think that women were best at nurturing and caring and, therefore, should be teachers and nurses. So that‘s what you did. Or, perhaps you were brought up to believe that you should do what your father did, so you have taken over the family business, or become a dentist ―just like dad.‖ If this sounds familiar, it‘s probably time to look at the new possibilities for your future.Miller developed a 7-step process to help potential job seekers assess their currentsituation and beliefs, identify their real passion, and start on a journey that allows them to pursue their passion through work.Step 1: Willingness to do something different.Breaking the cycle of doing what you have always done is one of the most difficult tasks for job seekers. Many find itdifficult to steer away from a career path or make a change, even if it doesn‘t feel right. Miller urges job seekers to open their minds to other possibilities beyond what they are currently doing.Step 2: Commitment to being who you are, not who or what someone wants you to be.Look at the \gifts and talents you have and make a commitment to pursue those things that you love most. If you love the social aspects of your job, but are stuck inside an office or ―chained to your desk‖ most of the time, vow to follow your instinct and investigate alternative careers and work that allow you more time to interact with others. Dawn worked as a manager for a large retail clothing store for several years. Though she had advanced within the company, she felt frustrated and longed to be involved with nature and the outdoors. She decided to go to school nights and weekends to pursue her true passion by earning her master‘s degree in forestry. She now works in the biotech forestry division of a major paper company.Step 3: Self-definitionMiller suggests that once job seekers know who they are, they need to know how to sell themselves. ―In the job market, you are a product. And just like a product, you most know the features and benefits that you have to offer a potential client, or employer.‖ Examine the skills and knowledge that you have identify how they can apply to your desired occupation. Your qualities will exhibit to employers why they should hire you over other candidates.Step 4: Attain a level of self-honoring.Self-honoring or self-love may seem like an odd step for job hunters, but being able to accept yourself, without judgment, helps eliminate insecurities and will make you more self-assured.By accepting who you are – all your emotions, hopes and dreams, your personality, and your unique way of being –you‘ll project more confidence when networking and talking with potential employers. The power of self-honoring can help to break all the falsehoods you were programmed to believe –those that made you feel that you were not good enough, or strong enough, or intelligent enough to do what you truly desire.Step 5: Vision.Miller suggests that job seekers develop a vision th at embraces the answer to ―What do I really want to do?‖ one should create a solid statement in a dozen or so sentences that describe in detail how they see their life related to work. For instance, the secretary who longs to be an actress describes a life that allows her to express her love of Shakespeare on stage. A real estate agent, attracted to his current job because her loves fixing up old homes, describes buying properties that need a little tender loving care to make them more saleable.Step 6: Appropriate risk.Some philosophers believe that the way to enlightenment comes through facingobstacles and difficulties. Once people discover their passion, many are too scared to do anything about it. Instead, they do nothing. With this step, job seekers should assess what they are willing to give up, or risk, in pursuit of their dream. For one working mom, that meant taking night classes to learn new computer-aided design skills, while still earning a salary and keeping her day job. For someone else, it may mean quitting his or her job, taking out loan and going back to school full time. You‘ll move one step closer to your ideal work life if you identify how much risk you are willing to take and the sacrifices you arewilling to make.Step 7: Action.Some t eachers of philosophy describe action in this way, ―If one wants to get to the top of a mountain, just sitting at the foot thinking about it will not bring one there. It is by making the effort of climbing up the mountain, step by step, that eventually the summit is reached.‖ All too often, it is the lack of action that ultimately holds people back from attaining their ideals. Creating a plan and taking it one step at a time can lead to new and different job opportunities. Job-hunting tasks gain added meaning as you sense their importance in your quest for a more meaningful work life. The plan can include researching industries and occupations, talking to people who are in your desired area of work, taking classes, or accepting volunteer work in your targeted field.Each of these steps will lead you on a journey to a happier and more rewarding work life. After all, it is the journey, not the destination, that is most important.注意：此部分试题请在答题卡1上作答。

Not long ago, researcherslearned that 4-day-oldscould understand (36)____ and subtraction. Now, British research (37) ____Graham Schafer has discovered that infants can learn words for uncommon things long before they can speak. He found that 9-month-old infants could be taught, through repeated show-and-tell, to (38) _______the names of objects that were foreign to them, a result that(39)________in some ways the received (40)______that, apart from learning to (41)______things common to their daily lives, children don’t begin to build vocabulary until well into their second year. “It’s no (42)______that children learn words, but the words they tend to know are words linked to (43)_____ situations in the home,” explains Schafer. ”This is the first that we can choose what words the children will learn and that they can respond to them with an unfamiliar voice giving instructions in an unfamiliar setting.”Figuring out how humans acquire language may shed light on why some children learn to read and write later than others, Schafer says, and could lead to better treatments for developmental problems. What’s more, the study of language offers direct insight into how humans learn . “Language is a test case for human cognitive development,” says Schafer. But parents eager to teach their infants should take note: Even without being new words, a control group caught up with the other within a few moths. “This is not about advancing development,” he says. “It’s just about what children can do at an earlier age than what educators have often thought.”2007年6月11.

M： Well the Center for Climate Research where I work links the science of climate change to issues around economics and policy。

Some of our research is to do with the likely impacts of climate change and all of the associated risks。

W： And how strong is the evidence that climate change is happening that it‘s really something we need to be worried about。

M： Well most of the science of climate change particularly that to do with global warming is simply fact。

But other aspects of the science are less certain or at least more disputed。

And so we‘re really talking about risk what the economics tells us is that it’s probably cheaper to avoid climate change to avoid the risk than it has to deal with the likely consequences。

Your essay should include the importance of innovation and measures to be taken to encourageinnovation.You are required to write at least 150 words but no more than 200 words.【参考范文】It is universally acknowledged that innovation refers to being creative, unique and different. In fact, today it is impossibly difficult for us to image a 21st century without innovation.We should place a high value on innovation firstly because innovative spirit can enable an individual to ameliorate himself, so he can be equipped with capacity to see what others cannot see, be qualified for future career promotion, and be ready for meeting the ing challenges. What’s more, we ought to attach importance to the role played by innovation in economic advancement. Put it another way, in this ever-changing world, innovation to economic growth is what water is to fish. To sum up, if innovation misses our attention in any possible way, we will suffer a great loss beyond imagination.In order to encourage innovation, it is wise for us to take some feasible measures. For example, mass media should greatly publicize the significance of creative spirit and encourage the public to cultivate awareness of innovation. Besides, those who manage to innovate should be awarded generous prize.

Better still, our descendants might at last live in a world at peace with itself.The prediction is that we will have found a source of inexbaustible, safe, green energy, and that science will have killed off religion. If they are right we will have removed two of the main causes of war-our dependence on oil and religious prejudice.Will we really, as today‘s scientists claim, be able to live for eve r or at least cheat the ageing process so that the average person lives to 150?Of course, all these predictions come with a scientific health warning. Harvard professor Steven Pinker says: ―This is an invitation to look foolish, as with the predictions o f domed cities and nuclear-powered vacuum cleaners that were made 50 year ago.‖Living longerAnthony Atala, director of the Wake Forest Institute in North Carolina, belives failing organs will be repaired by injecting cells into the body. They will naturally to straight to the injury and help heal it. A system of injections without needles could also slow the ag eing process by using the same process to ―tune‖ cells.Bruce Lahn, professor of human genetics at the University of Chicago, anticipates the ability to produce―unlimited supplies‖ of transplantable human organs without the needed a new organ, such as kidney, the surgeon would contact a commercial organ producer, give him the patient‘s immuno-logical profile and would then be sent a kidney with the correct tissue type.alloweing them to deveoop into and organ in place of the animal‘s own. But Prof. Lahn bel ieves that farmed brains would be ―off limits‖.He says: ―Very few people would want to have their brains replaced by someone else‘s and we probably don‘twant to put a human brain ing an animal body.‖Richard Miller, a professor at the University of Michigan, thinks scientist could develop―an thentic anti-ageing drugs‖ by working out how cells in larger animals such as whales and human resist many forms of injuries. He says:―It‘s is now routine, in laboratory mammals, to extend lifespan by about 40%. Turning on the same protective systems in people should, by 2056, create the first class of 100-year-olds who are as vigorous and productive as today‘s people in their 60s‖AliensConlin Pillinger ,professor of planerary sciences at the Open University,says:‖I f ancy that at least we will be able to show that life didi start to evolve on Mars well as Earth.‖Within 50years he hopes scientists will prove that alien life came here in Martian meteorites(陨石).Chris McKay,a planetary scientist at NASA‘s Ames Research Center.believes that in 50 years we may find evidence of alien life in ancient permanent forst of Mars or on other planers.He adds:‖There is even a chance we will find alien life forms here on Earth.It mightbe as different as English is to Chinese.Priceton professor Freeman Dyson thinks it ―likely‖ that life form outer space will be discovered defore 2056 because the tools for finding it, such as optical and radio detection and data processing,are improving.He ays:‖As soon as the first evidence is found,we will know what to look for and additional discoveries are likely to follow quickly.Such discoveries are likely to have revolutionary consequences for biology, astronomy and philosophy. They may change the way we look at ourselves and our place in the universe.Colonies in spaceRichard Gottprofessor of astrophysics at Princeton,hopes man will set up a self-sufficient colony on Mars,which would be a ―life insurance policy against whateve r catastrophes,natural or otherwise,might occur on Earth.―The real sp ace race is whether we will colonise off Earth on to other worlds before money for the space programme runs out.‖Spinal injuriesEllen Heber-Katz,a professor at the Wistar Institude in Philadelphia,foresees cures for inijuries causing paralysis such as the one that afflicated Superman star Christopher Reeve.She says:‖I believe that the day is not far off when we will be able to profescribe drugs that cause severes(断裂的) spinal cords to heal,hearts to regenerate and lost limbs to regrow.way that we fix an appliance or automobile:by replancing the damaged part with a manufacturer-certified new part.‖She predict that within 5 to 10 years fingers and toes will be regrown and limbs will start to be regrown a few years later. Reparies to the nervous system will start with optic nerves and,in time,the spinal cord.‖Within 50years whole body replacement will be routine,‖Prof.Heber-Katz adds.ObesitySydney Brenner,senior distinguished fellow of the Crick-Jacobs Center in California,won the 2002 Noblel Prize for Medicine and says that if there is a global disaster some humans will survive-and evolition will favour small people with bodies large enough to support the required amount of brain power.‖Obesity,‖he says.‖will have been solved.‖RobotsRodney Brooks,professor of robotice at MIT,says the problems of developing artificial intelligence for robots will be at least partly overcome.As a result,‖the possibilities for robots working with people will open up immensely‖EnergyBill Joy,green technology expert in Califo mia,says:‖The most significant breakthrought would be to have an inexhaustible source of safe,green energy that is substantially cheaper than any existing energy source.‖Ideally,such a source would be safe in that it could not be made into weapons and would not make hazardous or toxic waste or carbon dioxide,the main greenhouse gas blamed for global warming.SocietyGeoffrey Miller,evolutionary psychologist at the University of New Mexico,says:‖The US will follow the UKin realizing that religion is nor a prerequisite (前提)for ordinary human decency.―This,s cience will kill religion-not by reason challenging faith but by offering a more practical,uniwersal and rewarding moral frameworkfor human interaction.‖He also predicts that ―ahsurdly wasteful‖displays of wealth will become umfashionable while the imp ortance of close-knit communities and families will become clearer.These there changer,he says,will help make us all‖brighe\ter,wiser,happier and kinder‖.注意：此部分试题请在答题卡1上作答。

What is the man’s line of business?Directions: 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 onlyonce. 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 2 with a single line through the centre.P1The new year always brings with the cultural tradition of new possibilities. We see it as a chance for renewal. We begin to dream of new possible selves. We design our ideal self or an image that is quite different from what we are now. For some of us, we roll at dreamy film in our heads just because it’s the beginning of a new year. But we aren’t serious about making cha nges. We just make some half-hearted resolution and it evaporates after a week or two. The experience makes us feel less successful and leads us to discount our ability to change in the future. It’ not the change is impossible but that it would lose(?) unless our resolutions are supported with plans for implementation. We have to make our intentions manageable by detailing the specific steps that will carry us to our goal. Say your goal is to lose weight by dieting and cutting off sweets. But one night you just have to have a cookie. And you know there’s a bag of your favorites in the cupboard. You want one, you eat two, you check the bag and find out you’ve just shot 132 calories. You say to yourself, ―What the hell!‖ and polish off the whole bag. Then you begin to draw all kinds of unpleasant conclusions about yourself. To protect your sense of self, you begin to discount the goal. You may think –―Well, dieting wasn’t that important to me and I won’t make it anyhow.‖ So you abandon the goal and return to y our bad habits.26 What do people usually wish to do at the beginning of a new year?27 How can people turn their new year’s resolutions into reality?28 Why does the speaker mention the example of sweets and cookies?P225 years ago, Ray Anderson, a single parent with a one-year-old son witnessed a terrible accident which took place when the driver of a truck ran a red light and collided with the car of Sandra D. The impact of the collision killed Sandra instantly. But her three-month-old daughter was left trapped in the burning car. While others looked on in horror, Andersen jumped out of his vehicle and crawled into the car through the shadowed rear window to try to free the infant. Seconds later, the car was enclosed in flames. But to everyone’s ama zement, Andersen was able to pull the baby to safety. While the baby was all right, Andersen was seriously injured. Two days later he died. But his heroic act was published widely in the media. His son was soon adopted by relatives. The most remarkable part of the story unfolded only last week. Karen and her boyfriend Michael were looking through some old boxes when they came across some old newspaper clippings. ―This is me when I was a new born baby.I was rescued from a burning car. But my mother died in the accident,‖ explained Karen. Although Michael knew Karen’s mother had died years earlier, he never fully understood the circumstances until he skimmed over the newspaper article. To Karen’s surprise, Michael was absorbed in the details of the accident. And he began to cry uncontrollably. Then he revealed that the man that pulled Karen from the flames was the father he never knew. The two embraced and shed many tears, recounting stories told to them about their parents.29 What happened twenty-five years ago?30 What does the speaker say about Michael’s father?31 Why did Michael cry uncontrollably when he skimmed over the newspaper article? P3Americans suffer from an overdose of work. Regardless of who they are or what they do. Americans spend more time at work than that any time since World War II. In 1950, the US had fewer working hours than any other industrialized country. Today, it exceeds every country but Japan where industrialized employees load 2155 hours a year compared with 1951 in the US and 1603 in the former West Germany. Between 1969 and 1989, employed Americans add an average of 138 hours to their yearly work schedules. The workweek has remained above 40 hours. But people are working more weeks each year. Specifically pay time off holidays, vacations, sick leave shrink by 50% in the 1980s. As corporations have experienced stiff competitions and slow in growth of productivity, they have pressed employees to work longer. Cost-cutting lay-offs in the 1980s reduce the professional and managerial runs, leaving fewer people to get the job done. In lower paid occupations where wages have been reduced, workers have added hours in overtime or extra jobs to preserve their living standards. The government estimates that more than 7 million people hold a second job. For the first time, large numbers of people say they want to cut back on working hours even it means earning less money. But most employers are unwilling to let them do so. The government which has stepped back from its traditional role as a regulator of work time should take steps to make shorter hours possible.Question 32-35 are based on the passage you’ve just heard32. In which country do industrial employees work the longest hours?33. How do employed Americans manage to work more hours?34. Why do corporations press their employees to work longer hours according to the speaker?35. What does the speaker say many Americans prefer to do?Compound dictationNursing, as a typically female profession, must deal constantly with the false impression that nurses are there to wait on the physician. As nurses, we are licensed to provide nursing care only. We do not have any legal or moral obligation to any physician. We provide health teaching, assess physical as well as emotional problems, coordinate patient related services, and make all our nursing decision based upon what is best or suitable for the patient. If in any circumstance we feel that a physician’s order is inappropriate or unsafe, we have a legal responsibility to question that order, or refuse to carry it out. Nursing is not a nine-to-five job with every weekend off. All nurses are aware of that before they enter the profession. The emotional and physical stress, however, that occurs due to odd working hours is a prime reason for a large of the career dissatisfaction. It is sometimes required that we work overtime, and that we change shifts four or five times a month. That disturbs our personal lives, destruct our sleeping and eating habits, and isolates us from everything except job related friends and activities. The quality of nursing care is being affected dramatically by these situations. Most hospitals are now staffed by new graduates, asexperienced nurses finally give up trying to change the system. Consumers of medically related services have evidently not been affected enough yet to demand changes in our medical system. But if trends continue as predicted, they will find that most critical hospital care will be provided by new, inexperienced, and sometimes inadequately trained nurses.2007年12月英语六级真题听力原文Section A11.

(26) If their proposal becomes a reality, it will revolutionize train travel in Europe. Journeys between major cities will take half the time they take today. (27) Brussels will be only one and a half hours from Paris. Thequickest way to get from Paris to Frankfurt, from Barcelona to Madrid will be by train, not plane. When the network is compete, it will integrate three types of railway line: totally new high-speed lines with trains operating at speeds of 300 kilometers per hour, upgraded lines which allow for speeds up to 200 to 225 kilometers per hour, and existing lines for local connections and distribution of freight. If business people can choose between a 3-hour train journey from city-center to city-center and 1-hour flight, they’ll choose the train (28), says an executive travel consultant. They won’t go by plane any more. If you calculate flight time, check-in and travel to-and-from the airport, you’ll find almost no difference. And if your plane arrives late due to bad weather or air traffic jams or strikes, then the train passengers will arrive at their destination first. (28) Since France introduced the first 260-kilometer per hour high speed train service between Paris and Lyon in 1981 (29), the trains have achieved higher and higher speeds. On many routes, airlines have lost up to 90% of their passengers to high speed trains. If people accept the Community of European Railways’ Railways’ Plan, the 21st century will be new age of the trains.Question 26 to 29 are based on the passage you have just heard.26. What is the proposal presented by the Community of European Railways?27. What will happen when the proposal becomes a reality?28. Why will business people prefer a 3-hour train journey to a 1-hour flight?29. When did France introduce the first high speed train service?Passage TwoWestern doctors are beginning to understand what traditional healers have always known that the body and the mind are inseparable. (30) Until recently, modern urban physicians heal the body, psychiatrist the mind, and priests the soul. However, the medical world is now paying more attention to holistic medicine, which is an approach based on the belief that people’s state of mind can make them sick or speed their recovery from sickness. Several studies show that the effectiveness of a certain drug often depends on the patients’ expectations of it. For example, in one recent study, psychiatrists at a major hospital tried to see how patients could be made calm.(31) They divided them into two groups. One group was given a drug while the other group received a harmless substance instead of medicine without their knowledge. Surprisingly, more patients in the second group showed the desired effect than those in the first group. In study after study, there’s a positive reaction in almost one-third of the patients taking harmless substances. How was this possible? How can such a substance have an effect on the body? Evidence from a 1997 study at the University of California shows that several patients who received such substances were able to produce their own natural drug, that is, as they took the substance their brains released natural chemicals that act like a drug. (32) Scientists theorized that the amount of these chemicals released by a person’s brain quite possibly indicates how much faith the person has in his or her doctor.Question 30 to 32 are based on the passage you have just heard.30. According to the speaker, what are western doctors beginning to understand?31. What does the recent study at a major hospital seem to prove?32. What evidence does the 1997 study at the University of California produce?Passage ThreeSo we’ve already talked a bit about the growth of extreme sports like rock-climbing. As psychologists, we need to ask ourselves (35): Why is this person doing this? Why do people take these risks and put themselves in danger when they don’t have to? One common trait among risk-takers is that they enjoy strong feelings or sensations. (33) We call this trait sensation-seeking. A sensation-seeker is someone who’s always looking for new sensations. What else do we know about sensation-seekers? Well, as I said, sensation-seekers like strong emotions. You can see this trait in many parts of a person’s life, not just in extreme sports. For example, many sensation-seekers enjoy hard rock music. They like the loud sound and strong emotion of the songs. Similarly, sensation-seekers enjoy frightening horror movies. They like the feeling of being scared and horrified while watching the movie. This feeling is even stronger for extreme sports where the person faces real danger. Sensation-seekers feel the danger is very exciting. In addition, sensation-seekers like new experiences that force them to push their personal limits. For them, repeating the same things everyday is boring.(34) Many sensation-seekers choose jobs that involve risk, such as starting a new business or being an emergency room doctor. These jobs are different everyday, so they never know what will happen. That’s why many sensation-seekers also like extreme sports. When you do rock-climbing, you never know what will happen. The activity is always new and different.Questions 33 to 35 are based on the passage you have just heard.33. According to the speaker, what is a common trait among risk-takers?34. What do sensation-seekers find boring?35. What is the speaker’s profession?Section CIf you are like most people, you’ve indulged in fa ke listening many times. You go to history class, sit in the third row, and look squarely (36) at the instructor as she speaks. But your mind is far away, floating (37) in the clouds of pleasant daydreams. Occasionally (38) you come back to earth: the instructor writes an important term on the chalkboard, and you dutifully (39) copy it in your notebook. Every once in a while the instructor makes a witty (40) remark, causing others in the class to laugh. You smile politely, pretending that you’ve heard the r emark and found it mildly humorous (41). You have a vague sense of guilt (42) that you aren’t paying close attention, but you tell yourself that any material (43) you miss can be picked up from a friend’s notes. Besides, the instructor is talking about road construction in ancient Rome and nothing could be more boring (44). So back you go into your private little world. Only later do you realize you’ve missed important information for a test.Fake listening may be easily exposed, since many speakers are sensitive to facial cues and can tell if you’re merely pretending to listen. Your blank expression and the faraway look in your eyes are the cues that betray you inattentiveness (45).Even if you’re not exposed, there’s another reason to avoid fakery: it’s easy for this behavior to become a habit. For some people, the habit is so deeply rooted that they automatically start daydreaming when a speaker begins talking on something complex or uninteresting (46). As a result, they miss lots of valuable information.2008年6月英语六级真题听力原文Section A11. M: Good news, I’m not going to have surgery after all.
