P a p e r P 1Section A –This ONE question is compulsory and MUST be attempted1Global-bank is a prominent European bank with branches throughout Europe and investment arms in many locations throughout the world. It is regarded as one of the world’s major international banks. Through its network of investment offices throughout the world, fund managers trade in local investment markets and equities. Futures and derivative traders also operate. Its primary listing is in London although it is also listed in most of the other global stock markets including N ew York, Hong Kong, Frankfurt and Singapore. As with similar banks in its position, Global-bank’s structure is complicated and the complexity of its operations makes the strategic management of the company a demanding and highly technical process. Up until the autumn of 2008, investors had a high degree of confidence in the Global-bank board as it had delivered healthy profits for many years.In the autumn of 2008, it came to light that Jack Mineta, a Global-bank derivatives trader in the large city office in Philos, had made a very large loss dealing in derivatives over a three-month period. It emerged that the losses arose from Mr Mineta’s practice of ignoring the company trading rules which placed limits on, and also restricted, the type of financial instruments and derivatives that could be traded.The loss, estimated to be approximately US$7 billion, was described by one analyst as ‘a huge amount of money and enough to threaten the survival of the whole company’. As soon as the loss was uncovered, Mr Mineta was suspended from his job and the police were called in to check for evidence of fraud. The newspapers quickly reported the story, referring to Mr Mineta as a ‘rogue trader’ and asking how so much money could be lost without the bank’s senior management being aware of it. It turned out that Mr Mineta’s line manager at the Philos office had ignored the trading rules in the past in pursuit of higher profits through more risky transactions. Mr Mineta had considerably exceeded his trading limit and this had resulted in the huge loss. It later emerged that Mr Mineta had been dealing in unauthorised products which were one of the riskiest forms of derivatives.At a press conference after Mr Mineta’s arrest, Global-bank’s chief executive, Mrs Barbara Keefer, said that her first priority would be to ask the Philos office why the normal internal controls had not been effective in monitoring Mr Mineta’s activities. It emerged that Mr Mineta had in the past been one of Global-bank’s most profitable derivatives traders. Some journalists suggested to Mrs Keefer that the company was happy to ignore normal trading rules when Mr Mineta was making profits because it suited them to do so.Another derivatives trader in the Philos office, Emma Hubu, spoke to the media informally. She said that Mr Mineta was brilliant and highly motivated but that he often said that he didn’t care about the trading rules. Miss Hubu explained that Mr Mineta didn’t believe in right and wrong and once told her that ‘I’m in this job for what I can get for myself – big risks bring big returns and big bonuses for me.’ She also explained that the culture of the Philos office was driven by Mr Mineta’s line manager, Juan Evora. She said that Mr Evora knew that Mr Mineta was breaking trading rules but was also very profits driven and kept compliance information from head office so that the nature of Mr Mineta’s trading was not uncovered. The compliance information was required by head office but several failures to return the information had not been acted upon by head office. Mr Evora’s bonus was directly linked to the size of the Philos office’s profits and all of the derivatives traders, including Mr Mineta, were regularly reminded about the importance of taking risks to make big returns. Miss Hubu said that trading rules were not enforced and that head office never got involved in what went on in Philos as long as the annual profits from the Philos derivative traders were at or above expectations.It emerged that the lack of correct information from Philos and elsewhere meant that Global-bank’s annual report statement of internal control effectiveness was not accurate and gave an unduly favourable impression of the company’s internal controls. In addition, the company’s audit committee had been recently criticised by the external auditors for a lack of thoroughness. Also, the audit committee had recently lost two non-executive members that had not been replaced.The amount lost by Mr Mineta made it necessary to refinance the Global-bank business and when the board recommended a US$5 billion rights issue, some of the institutional investors demanded an extraordinary general meeting (EGM). Global-bank’s largest single shareholder, the Shalala Pension Fund, that held 12% of the shares, was furious about the losses and wanted an explanation from Mrs Keefer on why internal controls were so ineffective.When the Shalala trustees met after the losses had been reported, it was decided to write an urgent letter to Mrs Keefer expressing the trustees’ disappointment at her role in the internal control failures at Global-bank. The letter would be signed by Millau Haber, the chairman of the Shalala trustees.2At the EGM, Mrs Keefer made a statement on behalf of the Global-bank board. In it she said that Mineta had been a rogue trader who had wilfully disregarded the company’s internal controls and was, in breaking the company’s trading rules, criminally responsible for the theft of company assets. She denied that the main Global-bank board had any responsibility for the loss and said that it was a ‘genuinely unforeseeable’ situation.(a)Kohlberg’s theory of the development of moral reasoning contains three levels, with each level containing twostages or ‘planes’. It is a useful framework for understanding the ways in which people think about ethical issues.Required:(i)Explain the three levels of Kohlberg’s theory. (6 marks)(ii)Identify the level that Mr Mineta operated at and justify your choice using evidence from the case.(4 marks)(iii)Identify, with reasons, the stage (or ‘plane’) of Kohlberg’s moral development most appropriate for a professional bank employee such as Mr Mineta as he undertakes his trading duties. (2 marks) (b)Explain FIVE typical causes of internal control failure and assess the internal control performance ofGlobal-bank in the case scenario. (10 marks) (c)Analyse the agency relationship that exists between the board of Global-bank and the trustees of the ShalalaPension Fund.(4 marks) (d)Distinguish between narrow and wide stakeholders and identify three narrow stakeholders in Global-bank(based on Evan & Freeman’s definition) from information in the case. Assess the potential impact of the events described on each narrow stakeholder identified. (10 marks) (e)You have been asked to draft a letter from Millau Haber, chairman of the Shalala trustees, to Mrs Keefer asa result of concerns over the events described in the case. The letter should explain the roles andresponsibilities of the chief executive in internal control, and criticise Mrs Keefer’s performance in that role.(10 marks)Professional marks are available in part (e) for the structure, content, style and layout of the letter.(4 marks)(50 marks)3[P.T.O.Section B –TWO questions ONLY to be attempted2In a major policy speech, Government finance minister Mrs Wei Yttria said that the audit and assurance industry’s work should always be judged by the effect it has on public confidence in business. She said that it was crucial that professional services such as audit and assurance should always be performed in the public interest and that there should be no material threats to the assurer’s independence. Enron and other corporate failures happened, she said, because some accountants didn’t understand wh at it was to act in th e public interest. Sh e stressed th at it was important that firms should not provide more than one service to individual clients. If a firm audited a client then, she said, it shouldn’t provide any other services to that client.Mr Oggon Mordue, a financial journalist who had worked in audit and assurance for many years, was in the audience.He suggested that the normal advice on threats to independence was wrong. On the contrary in fact, the more services that a professional services firm can provide to a client the better, as it enables the firm to better understand the client and its commercial and accounting needs. Mrs Yttria disagreed, saying th at h is views were a good example of professional services firms not acting in the public interest.Mr Mordue said that when he was a partner at a major professional services firm, he got to know his clients very well through the multiple links that his firm had with them. He said that he knew all about their finances from providing audit and assurance services, all about their tax affairs through tax consulting and was always in a good position to provide any oth er advice as h e h ad acted as a consultant on oth er matters for many years including advising on mergers, acquisitions, compliance and legal issues. He became very good friends with th e directors of client companies, he said. The clients, he explained, also found the relationship very helpful and the accounting firms did well financially out of it.Another reporter in the audience argued with Mr Mordue. Ivor Nahum said that Mr Mordue represented the ‘very worst’ of the accounting profession. He said that accounting was a ‘biased and value laden’ profession that served minority interests, was complicit in environmental degradation and could not serve the public interest as long as it primarily served the interests of unfettered capitalism. He said that the public interest was badly served by accounting, as it did not address poverty, animal rights or other social injustices.Required:(a)Explain, using accounting as an example, what ‘the public interest’ means as used by Mrs Yttria in herspeech.(5 marks)(b)This requirement concerns ethical threats. It is very important for professional accountants to be aware of ethicalthreats and to avoid these where possible.Required:(i)With reference to the case as appropriate, describe five types of ethical threat.(5 marks)(ii)Assess the ethical threats implied by Mr Mordue’s beliefs. (8 marks)(c)Assess Ivor Nahum’s remarks about the accounting profession in the light of Gray, Owen & Adams’ deepgreen (or deep ecologist) position on social responsibility.(7 marks)(25 marks)43TQ Company, a listed company, recently went into administration (it had become insolvent and was being managed by a firm of insolvency practitioners). A group of shareholders expressed the belief that it was the chairman, Miss Heike Hoiku, who was primarily to blame. Although the company’s management had made a number of strategic errors that brought about the company fai lure, the shareholders blamed the chai rman for fai li ng to hold seni or management to account. In particular, they were angry that Miss Hoiku had not challenged chief executive Rupert Smith who was regarded by some as arrogant and domineering. Some said that Miss Hoiku was scared of Mr Smith.Some shareholders wrote a letter to Miss Hoiku last year demanding that she hold Mr Smith to account for a number of previous strategic errors. They also asked her to explain why she had not warned of the strategic problems in her chairman’s statement in the annual report earlier in the year. In particular, they asked if she could remove Mr Smith from office for incompetence. Miss Hoiku replied saying that whilst she understood their concerns, it was difficult to remove a serving chief executive from office.Some of the shareholders believed that Mr Smith may have performed better in his role had his reward package been better designed in the first place. There was previously a remuneration committee at TQ but when two of its four non-execut ve members left the company, they were not replaced and so the comm ttee effect vely collapsed.Mr Smith was then able to propose his own remuneration package and Miss Hoiku did not feel able to refuse him.He massively increased the proportion of the package that was basic salary and also awarded himself a new and much more expensi ve company car. Some shareholders regarded the car as ‘excessi vely’ expensi ve. In addi ti on, suspecting that the company’s performance might deteriorate this year, he exercised all of his share options last year and immediately sold all of his shares in TQ Company.It was noted that Mr Smith spent long periods of time travelling away on company business whilst less experienced directors struggled with implementing strategy at the company headquarters. This meant that operational procedures were often uncoordinated and this was one of the causes of the eventual strategic failure.(a)Miss Hoiku stated that it was difficult to remove a serving chief executive from office.Required:(i)Explain the ways in which a company director can leave the service of a board. (4 marks)(ii)Discuss Miss Hoiku’s statement that it is difficult to remove a serving chief executive from a board.(4 marks)(b)Assess, in the context of the case, the importance of the chairman’s statement to sharehol ders in TQCompany’s annual report. (5 marks)(c)Criticise the structure of the reward package that Mr Smith awarded himself. (4 marks)(d)Criticise Miss Hoiku’s performance as chairman of TQ Company. (8 marks)(25 marks)5[P.T.O.4John Pentanol was appointed as risk manager at H&Z Company a year ago and he decided that his first task was to examine the risks that faced the company. He concluded that the company faced three major risks, which he assessed by examining the impact that would occur if the risk were to materialise. He assessed Risk 1 as being of low potential impact as even if it materialised it would have little effect on the company’s strategy. Risk 2 was assessed as being of medium potential impact whilst a third risk, Risk 3, was assessed as being of very high potential impact.When John realised the potential impact of Risk 3 materialising, he issued urgent advice to the board to withdraw from the activity that gave rise to Risk 3 being incurred. In the advice he said that the impact of Risk 3 was potentially enormous and it would be irresponsible for H&Z to continue to bear that risk.The company commercial director, Jane Xylene, said that John Pentanol and his job at H&Z were unnecessary and that risk management was ‘very expensive for the benefits achieved’. She said that all risk managers do is to tell people what can’t be done and that they are pessimists by nature. She said she wanted to see entrepreneurial risk takers in H&Z and not risk managers who, she believed, tended to discourage enterprise.John replied that it was his job to eliminate all of the highest risks at H&Z Company. He said that all risk was bad and needed to be eliminated if possible. If it couldn’t be eliminated, he said that it should be minimised.(a)The risk manager has an important role to play in an organisation’s risk management.Required:(i)Describe the roles of a risk manager. (4 marks)(ii)Assess John Pentanol’s understanding of his role. (4 marks)(b)With reference to a risk assessment framework as appropriate, criticise John’s advice that H&Z shouldwithdraw from the activity that incurs Risk 3. (6 marks)(c)Jane Xylene expressed a particular view about the value of risk management in H&Z Company. She also saidthat she wanted to see ‘entrepreneurial risk takers’.Required:(i)Define ‘entrepreneurial risk’ and explain why it is important to accept entrepreneurial risk in businessorganisations; (4 marks) (ii)Critically evaluate Jane Xylene’s view of risk management.(7 marks)(25 marks)End of Question Paper6。

W: I forgot to tell you that Fred called last night to borrow your sleeping bag.M: Oh, I saw him at the gym this morning, but he didn’t say anything. So he must have asked somebody else.Q: What does the man imply?12. W: These summer days are getting to be more than I can take. It was even too hot to go to the pool yesterday.M: Hang in there. According to the weather report we should have some relief by the end of the week.Q: What does the man mean?13. W: Well, tonight we have Professor Brown in our studio to talk about the famous oil painting of Queen Victoria. Good evening, professor.M: Good evening, madam, my pleasure to be here tonight.Q: What is the woman doing?14. M: The plants next t o the window always look brown. You wouldn’t know by looking at them that I water them every week.W: Maybe they don’t like direct sunlight. I had the same problem with some of my plants. And a little shade helps them immensely.Q: What does the woman imply?15. M: I’m really exhausted, Mary. But I don’t want to miss the Hollywood movie that comes on at 11.W: If I were you, I’d skip it. We both have to get up early tomorrow. And anyway I’ve heard it’s not as exciting as advertised.Q: What does the woman suggest the man do?16. M: Those modern sculptures over there are really weird. Don’t you think so?W:Well, I couldn’t stand them either at first. But now I’ve come to like modern art, particularly those sculptures carved by Italian artists.Q: What does the woman mean?17. M: I’m really glad our club decided to raise money for the children’s hospital. And most of the people we phoned seemed happy to contribute.W: Yeah! I agree. Now that we’ve gone through all the numbers on our list, I guess we can call it a day.Q: What do we learn about the speakers?18. M: Have you heard of Professor Smith? I’m thinking of taking an advanced engineering course with him. What do you think?W: Yeah! You really should. He’s published dozens of books so far, once been rec ommended as a textbook for postgraduates.Q: What does the woman imply?Long conversation oneW: You’re the editor of Public Eye. What kind of topics does your program cover?M: Well, there are essentially domestic stories. We don’t cover international stories. We don’t cover party politics or economics. We do issues of general social concern to our British audience. They can be anything from the future of the health service to the way the environment is going downhill.W: How do you choose the topic? Do y ou choose one because it’s what the public wants to know about or because it’s what you feel the public ought to know about?M: I think it’s a mixture of both. Sometimes you have a strong feeling that something is important and you want to see it examined and you want to contribute to a public debate. Sometimes people come to you with things they are worried about and they can be quite small things. They can be a story about corruption in local government, something they cannot quite understand, why it does n’t seem to be working out properly, like they are not having their litter collected properly or the dustbins emptied.W: How do you know that you’ve got a really successful program? One that is just right for the time?M: I think you get a sense about it after working in it in a number of years. You know which stories are going to get the attention. They are going to be published just the point when the public are concerned about that.Q19-2119. What kind of topics does Public Eye cover?20. How does Public Eye choose its topics?21. What factor plays an important role in running a successful program?Long conversation TwoW: Hi, Professor Smith. I hear you’ve written a book titled Visions.M: Yes. It explains how science will revolutionize the 21st century.W: Could I ask you some questions concerning the book?M: Sure.W: Are you optimistic about the future?M: Generally, yeah. If we go back to the year of 1900, most Americans didn’t live beyond the age of 50. Since then, we’ve had improvements in health care and technology. There is no reason why these won’t continue far into the 21st century.W: Are we ready for the changes that will come?M: Changes are already happening. The future is here now. We have DNA, microchips, the internet. Some p eople’s reaction is to say, we are too old; we don’t understand new technology. My reaction is to say, we must educate people to use new technology now.W: Is world population going to be a big problem?M: Yes, and no. I think that world population will stop increasing as we all get richer. If you are a part of the middle class, you don’t want or need 12 children.W: Will there be a world government?M: Very probably. We will have to manage the world and its resources on a global level because countries alone are too small.W: Will we have control of everything?M: I think we’ll learn to control the weather, volcanoes and earthquakes. I ll ness won’t exist. We’ll grow new livers, kidneys, hearts, and lungs like spare parts for a car. People will live to about 130 or 150. For 2000 years, we have tried to understand our environment. Now we’ll begin to controlit.Q22-25 are based on the conversation you just heard.22. What does Professor Smith say about most Americans around the year of 1900?23. What does Professor Smith advice we do?24. When will the world population stop growing according to Professor Smith?25. What does Professor Smith think human beings will be able to do?Passage 1Getting behind the wheel of a car can be an exciting new s tep in a teen’s life. But along with that excitement comes a new responsibility---understanding the need for common sense and maturity to avoid accidents. In an effort to spread awareness to teens across the nation, the Allstate Foundation sponsored a Keep-The-Drive Summit at Sunset Station on January 23rd. Students from Kennedy and Alamo Heights High schools participated in the summit which was held here for the first time. The goal of the year-long effort is to educate teens on the rules of safe driving and the severe consequences that can result if those rules are not followed, and then have them communicate that information to their peers. The students watched videos that told them about the numbers of teenage driving injuries and deaths. They listen to the videos as students from other cities share their stories of how their reckless driving affected not only their lives but also those of their passengers. “We are trying to create awareness in high schools across the countries,” said Westerman, an Allsta te representative, “we focus on changing how teens think behind the wheel.” According to the presentation, more teens die in automobile crashes in the United States each year than from drugs, violence, smoking and suicide. An average of 16 teens die every day in motor vehicle crashes and nearly forty percent of those are caused by speeding. Texas is the state with the most teen driving deaths according to the presentation. Students agreed that the statistics were amazing and made them think twice about how they drive.Questions 26 to 28 are based on the question you have just heard.Q26. For what purpose did the Allstate Foundation sponsor the Keep-The-Drive Summit?Q27. What causes the greatest number of deaths among American teens according to the presentation?Q28. What can we conclude about the Keep-The-Drive Summit?Passage 2Dr. Allen Hersh designs smells for businesses. He says that it doesn’t take a whole lot of smell to affect you. Store owners can lure you to the candy aisle, even if you don’t r ealize your are smelling candy. This idea scares a lot of people. Groups that protect the rights of shoppers are upset. They say the stores are using a kind of brainwashing which they call “smell-washing”. “It’s pretty dishonest,” says Mark Silbergeld. He runs an organization that checks out products for consumers. The scientists hired to design the scents disagree. “There’s soft background music. There’s special lighting. There’re all sorts of bells being used,” says Dr. Hersh, “why not smells?” “One reason why not,” says Silbergeld, “is that some people are allergic to certain scents pumped into products or stores.” But there is a whole other side to this debate, “do the smells really work?” So far, there is little proof one way or the other. But Dr. Hersh has run some interesting experiments. In one of Hersh’s experiments, 31 volunteers were led into a shoe store that smells slightly like flowers. Later, another group shopped in the same store, but with no flower odor. Dr.Hersh found that 84% of the shoppers were more likely to buy the shoes in the flower-scented room, but Hersh found out something even stranger. “Whether the volunteers like the flower scent or not didn’t matter,” Hersh says, “Some reported that they hated the smell, but they still were mo re likely to buy the shoes in the scented room.”Questions 29 to 31 are based on the passage you’ve just heard.Q29. Why are some people against the use of smells to attract customers?Q30. What is Dr. Hersh’s attitude to the use of smells for business?Q31. What did Hersh’s experiment show?Passage 3This is Ray McCarthy with the news. Reports are coming in of a major train crash in Japan. A passenger train carrying hundreds of workers home from the center of Tokyo is reported to have hit an oncoming goods train. Both were traveling at high speed. Figures are not yet available but it is believed that the death toll could be as high as 300, with hundreds more injured. Emergency and rescue services rushed to the scene. But our reporter says it will take days to clear the track and to establish the numbers of the dead and injured. There was a similar accident on the same stretch of track four years ago.There was another bomb scare in a large London store last night during late night shopping. Following a telephone call to the police from an anonymous caller, hundreds of shoppers were shepherded out of the store while roads in the area were sealed off. Police dogs spent hours searching the store for a bag which the caller claimed contained 50 pounds of explosives. Nothing was found and the store was given the all-clear by opening time this morning. A police spokesman said that this was the third bomb scare within a week and that we should all be on our guard.And finally, the motoring organizations have issued a warning to drivers following the recent falls of snow in many parts of the country. Although the falls may be slight, they say extra care is needed.Questions 32 to 35 are based on the passage you have just heard.Q32: What accident happened recently in Japan?Q33: What do the reports say about the recent accident in Japan?Q34: Why did people have to leave the London store last night?Q35: What did motoring organizations advise drivers to do?Section C Compound DictationEnglish is the leading international language. In different countries around the globe English is acquired as the mother tongue; in others it is used as a second language. Some nations use English as their official language, performing the function of administration; in others it is used as an international language for business, commerce and industry.What factors and forces have led to the spread of English? Why is English now considered to be so prestigious that, across the globe, individuals and societies feel disadvantaged if they do not have competence in this language? How has English changed through 1,500 years? These are some of the questions that you investigate when you study English.You also examine the immense variability of English and come to understand how it is used as a symbol of both individual identity and social connection. You develop in-depth knowledge of the intricate structure of the language. Why do some non-native speakers of English claim that it is adifficult language to learn, while infants born into English-speaking communities acquire their language before they learn to use forks and knives? At the university of Sussex, you are introduced to the nature and grammar of English in all its aspects. This involves the study of sound structures, the formation of words, the sequencing of words and the construction of meaning, as well as examination of the theories explaining these aspects of English usage. You are encouraged to develop your own individual responses to various practical and theoretical issues, which are raised by studying how speakers and writers employ English for a wide variety of purposes.真题详解Part ⅠWriting[写作点拔]①审题及布局。

2009年6月六级模拟题目答案及听力原文部分
【本书下载于派派论坛,如需更多好书,请访问】2009年6月六级模拟题目答案及听力原文部分Part I WritingThe Increase in the Number of Students Attending Graduate Entrance Exams It can be seen from the chart that there have been sharp increases in the number of students attending graduate entrance exams in University X in the past decade. As the chart shows, the year 1999 witnessed only 2,900 students taking part in the exams. In 2004, the number soared to nearly four thousand. In 2009, far more people prepared themselves for graduate study.A number of factors could account for the change in the chart, but the following might be the critical ones. First, due to the spreading financial crisis and economic recession in the past years, the number of job vacancies has been on a sharp decline. Secondly, as a result of expanded enrollments in many colleges and universities, the number of graduates has rocketed in China, which adds to the fierceness of competition in the job market. Last but not least, relevant state policies and the boom of higher education provide students with more opportunities to go after higher degrees.Personally, I would not pursue graduate study right upon graduation from college. The main reason is that I have not made up my mind on the field to major in. But I really deem it necessary for me to secure a master degree. So I would set my goal while I am working.Part ⅡReading Comprehension(Skimming and Scanning)1. C2. B3. A4. D5. B6. C7.

M: The view is spectacular. Could you take a picture of me with the mountains in thebackground?W: I'm afraid I just ran out of film.Q: What does the woman mean?12. W:It has always been hard to get this car into first gear, and now the clutch seems to beslipping.M:If you leave the car with me, I will fix it for you this afternoon.Q:Who is the woman probably speaking to?13. M: Can I borrow your calculus textbook? I left mine in the classroom. And it was gone when Iwent back.W: That happened to me once. I'd almost given up on finding it until I checked it at the lost-and-found at the information desk downstairs in the lobby.Q: What does the woman imply about the man should do?14. M: I'm really having trouble with this literature course. If I can't start doing better soon, I'mgoing to have to drop it.W: Why don't you get some help from the graduate assistant? That's what he's there for.Q: What does the woman suggest the man do?15. W: I've been working on this report all day. And I've still got 12 pages to write. At this rate, I'llnever get it done by tomorrow.M: Oh, that's right. You weren't in class today, so you probably haven't heard that the deadline’s been extended a week.Q: What does the man imply?16. W: I don't think I want to live in the dormitory next year. I need more privacy.M: I know what you mean. But check out the cost of renting an apartment first, I wouldn't be surprised if you changed your mind.Q: What does the man think the woman will do?17. W: These mosquitoes bite are killing me. I c an’t help scratching.M: Next time you go camping, take some precaution, such as wearing long sleevesQ: Why does the man suggest the woman wear long sleeves?18. W: My brother is coming this weekend and I thought three of us could go out to dinnerSaturday night. Any suggestions?M: It's up to you. I don't know the restaurants around here that well. So you know a better place to go than me.Q: What does the man mean?Longer conversation oneW: This food is terrible. I can't even finish my dinner.M: I know. You think with all the money we pay for room and board, the university could hire a better food service. Where are you headed next?W: I'm going over to the student recreation center to play some bridge.M: You are spending your time on a card game?W: Not just any card game. It's one of the most strategic there is.M: So I've heard. Don't you play with a partner?W: Yeah. Four people play, two against the other two.M: So you try to play in cooperation with your partner.W: Actually, the cards of one of the four players are turned face up. That player is called the dummy.M: I wouldn't want to be called that. When you are the dummy what do you do while the cards are being played?W: Anything you want. Sit there and study, shuffle another deck, get snacks for everyone. I like to stand behind my partner and watch.M: You know, I've heard that bridge is habit forming. You should be careful not to play so much that you don't get your studying done.W: Don't worry about me. I only play Thursdays after dinner, and sometimes when they need a fourth player. If you like, I could teach you.M: Thanks. But I have a pretty heavy workload this term. I already spend my evenings learning things I don't really know.Q19.Where does the conversation take place?Q20.How does the woman plan to spend her evening?Q21.What will the woman probably do if she is the dummy?Q22.Why doesn't the man accept the woman's offer?Longer conversation twoM: So, Claire, you’re into drama!W: Yes, I have a master’s degree in drama and theatre. At the moment, I’m hoping to get onto a PhD program.M: What excites you about drama?W: Well, I find it’s a communicative way to study people and you learn how to read people in drama. So usually I can understand what people are saying even though they might be lying.M: That would be useful.W: Yeah, it’s very useful for me as well. I’m in English lecture, so use a lot of drama in my classes such as role plays. And I ask my students to create mini-dramas. They really respond well. At the moment, I’m hoping to get onto a Ph.D course. I’d like to concentrate on Asian drama and try to bring Asian theatre to the world’s attention. I don’t know how successful I would be, but, here’s hoping.M: Oh, I’m sure you’ll be successful. Now, Claire, what do you do fo r stage fright?W: Ah, stage fright! Well, many actors have that problem. I get stage fright every time I’m going to teach a new class. The night before, I usually can’t sleep.M: What? For teaching?W: Yes. I get really bad stage fright. But the minute I step into the classroom or get onto the stage, it just all falls into place. Then I just feel like: Yeah, this is what I mean to do. And I’m fine.M: Wow, that’s cool!Q23. Why does the woman find study in drama and theatre useful?Q24. How did the woman’s students respond to her way of teaching English?Q25. What does the woman say about her stage fright?Passage 1OK, in the last class we talked about the classification of trees and we ended up with a basic description of angiosperm. You remember that those are plants with true flowers and seeds that develop into fruits. The common broad leaf trees we have on campus fall into this category. But our pines don't. Now I hope you all followed my advice and wore comfortable shoes because as I said today we are going to do a little field study. To get started let me describe a couple of broadleaf trees we have in front of us. I'm sure you've all noticed that this big tree next to BrettHall. It's a black walnut that must be 80 feet tall. As a matter of fact there is a plaque identifying. It is the tallest black walnut in the state. And from here we can see the beautiful archway of trees at the commons. They are American elms. The ones along the commons were planted when the college was founded 120 years ago. They have distinctive dark green leaves that lock lopsided because the two sides of the leaf are unequal. I want you to notice the elm right outside the Jackson Hall. Some of the leaves have withered and turned yellow, maybe due to Dutch elm disease. Only a few branches seem affective so far but if this tree is sick it'll have to be cut down. Well, let's move on and I'll describe what we see as we go.Q26. What are the students going to do during this class period?Q27. In what class is this lecture probably being given?Q28. What is remarkable about the black walnut tree outside Brett Hall?Q29. What is the problem with the elm tree near Jackson Hall?Passage 2What was the most popular mix about the United States in the 19th Century was that of the free and simple life of the farmer. It was said that the farmers worked hard on their own land to produce whatever their families' needed. They might sometimes trade with their neighbors, but in general they could get along just fine by relying on themselves, not on commercial ties with others. This is how Thomas Jefferson idealized the farmers at the beginning of the 19th century. And at that time, this may have been close to the truth especially on the frontier. But by the mid century sweeping changes in agriculture were well under way as farmers began to specialized in the raising of crops such as cotton or corn or wheat. By late in the century revolutionary invents in farm machinery has vastly increased the production of specialized crops and extensive network of railroads had linked farmers throughout the country to market in the east and even overseas. By raising and selling specialized crops, farmers could afford more and finer goods and achieved much higher standard of living but at a price. Now farmers were no longer dependent just on the weather and their own efforts, their lives were increasing controlled by the banks, which had powder to grant or deny loans for new machinery, and by the railroads which set the rates for shipping their crops to the market. As businessmen, farmers now had to worry about national economic depression and the implement of world supply and demand on for example, the of price of wheat in hands. And so by the end of the 19th century, the era of Jefferson's independent farmerhad come to a close.Q30. What is the main topic of the talk?Q31. According to the professor, what was the major change in the agriculture during the 19th century?Q32. According to the professor, what was one result of the increased use of machinery on farms of the United States?Passage 3It is common knowledge that music can have a powerful effect on our emotions. In fact, since 1930s, music therapists have relied on music to soothe patients and help control pain. Now psychologists are confirming that music can also help relieve depression and improve concentration. For instance, in a recent study, 15 surgeons were given some highly stressed math problems to solve. They were divided into three groups: one worked in silence, and in another, the surgeons listened to music of their choice on headphones; the third listened to classic music chosen by the researchers. The results of the study may surprise you. The doctors who got to choose their music experienced less stress and scored better than the others. One possible explanation is that listening to music you like stimulates the Alfa-wave in the brain, increases the heart rate and expands the breathing. That helps to reduce stress and sharpen concentration. Other research suggests a second relation between th e music and the brain: by examining the students’ blood after they listening to a variety of classic music collections, the researchers found that some students showed a large increase in endorphin, a natural pain reliever, this supports what music therapists have known for years: Music can help rejuvenate or soothe the patient.Q33. According to the speaker how is the music therapy currently used in medicine?Q34. What did the study done with surgeons show?Q35. In the study of students exposed to classic music, what effect did the music have?Section C Compound DictationSleep is part of a person's daily 36activity cycle. There are several different stages of sleep and they occur in cycles, If you are an 37average sleeper, your sleep cycle is as follows. When you first drift off into slumber, your eyes will roll about a bit, your 38temperature will drop slightly, your 39muscles will relax, and your 40 breathing will slow and become quite 41regular. Yourbrain waves slow down a bit too with the alpha rhythm of rather fast waves 42predominating for the first few minutes. This is called stage 1 sleep. For the next half hour or so as you relax more and more you will drift down through stage 2 and stage 3 sleep. The lower your stage of sleep the slower your brain waves will be. Then about 40 to 60 minutes after you lose 43consciousness you will have reached the deepest sleep of all. 44Your brain waves will show the large slow waves that are known as the delta rhythm. This is stage 4 sleep.This period of rapid eye movement lasts for some ~ to 15 minutes and is called REM sleep. It is during REM sleep that most dreams seem to occur. 46Provided that you do not wake up during the first sleep period, your body will soon relax again, your breathing will grow slow and regular once more .You will slip gently back from stage I to 4 .【本书下载于派派论坛,如需更多好书,请访问】。

25 September 2009 - Hydrodec - Interim results to June 2009
Hydrodec Group plc 020 8528 1015Neil Gaskell, ChairmanMark McNamara, Chief ExecutiveMike Preen, Company SecretaryNumis Securities Limited 020 7260 1000Nominated Adviser: Simon BlankCorporate Broker: David Poutney / Alex HamCurve PR 07764 197003Emma DavisCHIEF EXECUTIVE'S REPORTThe first half of 2009 has been a difficult operating period resulting in the Group reporting a disappointing operating loss due in part to the steep decline in oil prices at the end of 2008 and the beginning of the year, a longer than anticipated ramp up of the Canton plant and slower sales in the Australian market.Since the impact of the rapid decline in oil prices was identified and announced to the market in February, there has been some recovery in the pricing though it remains below the levels experienced in 2008. In response to this the Company has agreed pricing mechanisms on the purchase of feedstock and sales of SUPERfine that give the Group greater protection against future price fluctuations.Management has also identified and resolved the operating issues experienced at the Canton plant and it is now operating consistently at approximately 60,000 litres a day. Production for the third quarter of 2009 is expected to be greater than the entire first half of 2009 and all current year production is fully committed to sales. The response to the Company's SUPERfine brand in the US continues to be positive. The Australian operation has developed its market more slowly in the period than had been hoped but the plant has operated well and changes made during the third quarter are beginning to produce improvements so that the potential of the plant can be fully exploited.The result for the half year has been reported in US dollars, compared with previous reporting in Sterling. The Board has taken the view that the presentational currency for the Group should be US dollars reflecting not only the importance of the US operations to the Group but also that the US dollar is the currency most widely used around the world in oil pricing. The comparative information has been restated to reflect US dollar values.Results for six months ended 30 June 2009Turnover for the period increased by 10% over the first half of 2008 to USD$4.5 million (2008: USD$4.1 million), with an overall loss of USD$5.0 million (2008: USD$3.7 million). The operating loss includes USD$1.1 million of depreciation and amortisation (2008: USD$1.0 million). Net assets decreased by 8% to USD $50.4 million (30 June 2008: USD $54.3 million).high level PCB destruction process to be granted a licence based upon nil emissions. TechnologyThe patent originally held by CSIRO in respect of the Hydrodec technology (which to date has been licensed globally to Hydrodec) has now been assigned to Hydrodec's Australian operating subsidiary, and that patent shall be re-registered in Hydrodec's name in all relevant jurisdictions. PlacingHydrodec performed placings of new shares in February (19,230,114) as well as in June (22,857,153) in order to raise a total of £5.1 million to fund, primarily, the ongoing working capital requirements of the Group.DisposalsDuring the period Hydrodec disposed of its condition monitoring business for AUD$0.8 million and the Molectra shares, which were acquired as part of the Virotec acquisition, for £0.3 million. These disposals produced cash without affecting the core business of the Group and neither had a material effect on the Group's results or financial position for the period.Following the difficulties experienced in the first half of the year, the Board believes that it is no longer possible for the Group to make a full year profit. However, we believe that the Group will be at or about breakeven at an operating profit level for the second half of 2009.Mark McNamaraChief Executive25 September 2009UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED CONDENSED INCOME STATEMENT6 months to30 June20096 months to30 June2008USD$'000USD$'000 Continuing operationsRevenue4,5204,064 Cost of sales(2,228)(989)-----------------------------------------------Gross profit2,2923,075 Administrative costs(6,134)(5,637)-----------------------------------------------Operating loss(3,842)(2,562) Interest income1422Interest costs (1,154)(1,567)-----------------------------------------------Loss before tax(4,995)(3,707) Income tax expense-------------------------------------------------Loss for the period(4,995)(3,707)============================= Basic loss per share(2.16)(2.00)============================= UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED CONDENSED STATEMENT OF COMPREHENSIVE INCOMELoss for the period(4,995)(3,707) Exchange differences on translation of foreignoperations7,740903---------------------------------------Total comprehensive income for the period2,745(2,804)======================== UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED CONDENSED STATEMENT OF FINANCIAL POSITION6 months to 30June 20096 months to 30June 2008USD$'000USD $'000 Non-current assetsProperty, plant and equipment25,09019,506 Goodwill3,4594,141 Investment -

It is incorporated and domiciled in Great Britain. Hydrodec Group plc's shares are listed on the Alternative Investment Market of the London Stock Exchange.Hydrodec's consolidated interim financial statements are presented in United States Dollar (USD$), which is also the functional currency of the group.These consolidated condensed interim financial statements have been approved for issue by the Board of Directors on 24 September 2009.The interim consolidated financial statements for the six months ended 30 June 2009 have been prepared under applicable International Financial Reporting Standards adopted by the European Union ("IFRS") which include International Accounting Standards and interpretations issued by the International Accounting Standards Board and its committees, which are expected to be endorsed by the European Union. This interim financial information has been prepared on the historical cost basis. The accounting policies applied are consistent with those adopted and disclosed in the annualbasis. The accounting policies applied are consistent with those adopted and disclosed in the annual financial statements for the period ended 31 December 2008.The financial statements have been prepared on the going concern basis, which assumes that the group will have sufficient funds to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future. The group has constructed the Canton, Ohio, plant and is in the process of bringing the plant tofull production capacity. Currently, the group is economically dependent upon the ability of this plant to produce sufficient SUPERfine oil at satisfactory margins to sustain adequate cash flowto meet the group's requirements. The Directors are satisfied that at current margins and if production continues at its current levels, the Group's operating cash flow requirements will be met. However, margins are affected by, amongst other things, the world price for oil, aboutwhich there is material uncertainty, and which is beyond the control of the Directors.The Directors believe that it is appropriate to prepare the financial statements on a going concern basis as they believe that the operating parameters outlined above will be met or exceeded. The financial information is unaudited and has not been reviewed by the auditor.2 PUBLICATION OF NON-STATUTORY ACCOUNTSThe financial information set out in this interim report does not constitute statutory accounts as defined in Section 435 of the Companies Act 2006.3 TAXATIONThere is no tax charge for the period.4 EARNINGS PER SHARE6 monthsended 30 June 20096 monthsended 30 June 2008USD$'000USD$'000 Loss for the financial period(4,995)(3,707)Number of sharesNumber of sharesWeighted average number of shares inissue*230,755,436185,611,148 * The weighted average shares on issue have beenreduced by the weighted average number of Treasuryand EBT shares held.Basic loss per share(2.16) cents(2.00) cents5 RECONCILIATION OF MOVEMENT IN SHAREHOLDERS' FUNDSAs at30 June 2009No. AuthorisedOrdinary shares of 0.5 pence each800,000,000 Issued and fully paid - ordinary shares of 0.5 pence eachAt 31 December 2008277,824,101 Issued on conversion of convertible loan notes1,973,684 Issued for cash42,087,267At 30 June 2009321,885,042 The company issued the following 0.5 pence ordinary shares during the period:Date of issue Number of shares Issue price Total consideration£20 February 200919,230,11410 pence1,923,011 12 June 20091,973,68419 pence375,000 25 June 200922,857,15314 pence3,200,0005,498,011This information is provided by RNSThe company news service from the London Stock ExchangeEND。

英语的日期格式-2009
英语的日期格式2009-12-29 10:52 一、书写方面先看下面的两个例子:1. 1986 年10 月23 日→October 23(rd), 1986 2. 2002 年1 月17 日→January 17(th), 2002 从上面的例子可以看出,英语日期的表达与汉语不同。
英语表达的顺序为\"月、日、年\",因此2004 年11 月8 日就可写成November 8th, 2004,还可表示为November eighth, 2004。
另外,也可写成\"日、月、年\",8th November, 2004 即the eighth of November, 2004。
1)“日子”用基数词和序数词都可以接受如:March 28th, 2009 / March 28, 2009 2)“月份”和“日子”可以换位英式:28 March, 2009 美式:March 28,2009 3)缩写时容易造成误解,英式:“日/月/年”;美式“月/日/年” 如:2009 年 3 月1 日英式缩写:01/03/2009 美式缩写:03/01/2009 两种方法都存在,英式写法的顺序比较受欢迎,国际使用较多。
二、朗读方面在朗读时,\"月份\"一般直接用英语读出;\"日\"则要读成\"the + 序数词\";读年份时,一般分为两个单位来读,前两个数为一个单位,后两个数为一个单位。
如:1982 年读作nineteen eighty-two, 1900 年读作nineteen hundred。
如果是三位数,先读第一位,再把后两个数合起来读。
如:984 年可读为nine eighty-four,757 年读成seven fifty-seven。
另外,像2000 年一般读成two thousand, 2001 年则读成two thousand and one,以此类推,2004 年应读成two thousand and four。
