Choose the one that you think is the best answer. Mark your answers on Answer Shee t Two.TEXT AThe art of public speaking began in ancient Greece over 2,000 years ago. Now, twitter, instant me ssaging, e-mail, blogs and chat forums offer rival approaches to communication - but none can rep lace the role of a great speech.The spoken word can handle various vital functions: persuading or inspiring, informing, paying t ribute, entertaining, or simply introducing someone or something or accepting something. Over t he past year, the human voice has helped guide us over the ups and downs of what was certainly a stormy time.Persuasion is used in dealing with or reconciling different points of view. When the leaders met in Copenhagen in December 2009, persuasive words from activists encouraged them to commit them selves to firmer action. Inspirational speeches confront the emotions. They focus on topics and m atters that are close to people's hearts. During wars, generals used inspiring speeches to prepare the troops for battle.A speech that conveys knowledge and enhances understanding can inform us. The information m ust be clear, accurate, and expressed in a meaningful and interesting way.(流行病)announced, the idea of “swine flu” many people. Informative speeches from World Health Orga nization officials helped people to keep their panic under control so they could take sensible preca utions.Sad events are never easy to deal with but a speech that pays tribute to the loss of a loved one an d gives praise for their contribution can be comforting. Madonna's speech about Michael Jackson ,after his death, highlighted the fact that he will continue to live on through his music.It's not only in world forums where public speaking plays an important role. It can also be surprisi ngly helpful in the course of our own lives.If you‟re taking part in a debate you need to persuade the listeners of the soundness ofyour argument. In sports, athletes know the importance of a pep talk(鼓舞士气的讲话) before a match to inspire teammates. You yourself may be asked to do a presentation at colle ge or work to inform the others about an area of vital importance.On a more personal level, a friend may be upset and need comforting. Or you might beasked to introduce a speaker at a family event or to speak at a wedding, where your language willbe needed to move people or make them laugh.Great speaking ability is not something we're born with. Even Barack Obama works hardto perfect every speech. For a brilliant speech, there are rules that you can put to good use. To lear n those rules you have to practice and learn from some outstanding speeches in the past.81. The author thinks the spoken word is still irreplaceable because ______.A. it has always been used to inspire or persuade people.B. it has a big role to play in the entertainment business.C. it plays important roles in human communication.D. it is of great use in everyday-life context.82. Which of the following statements is INCORRECT about the role of public speaking? _____A. Speeches at world forums can lead to effective solutions to world problems.B. Speeches from medical authorities can calm people down in times of pandemics.C. The morale of soldiers before a battle can be boosted by senior officers' speeches.D. Speeches paying tribute to the dead can comfort the mourners.83. Public speaking can play all the following roles EXCEPT ______.A. to convince people in a debate.B. to inform people at a presentation.C. to advise people at work.D. to entertain people at a wedding.84. According to the passage, which of the following best explains the author's view on ______ “great speaking ability”?A. It comes from observing rules.B. It can be perfected with easy effort.C. It can be acquired from birth.D. It comes from learning and practice.85. What is the main idea of the passage? ______.A. Public speaking in international forums.B. The many uses of public speaking.C. Public speaking in daily life context.D. The rules of public speaking.TEXT BEvery business needs two things, says Skullcandy CEO Rick Alden: inspiration and desperation. In 2001, Alden had both. He'd sold two snowboarding businesses, and he was desperately bored. But he had an idea: He wanted to make a new kind of headphone. “I kept seeing people missing their cell phone calls because they were listening to music,” he explains. Then I'm in a chairlift, I've got my headphones on, and I realize my phone is ringing. As 1 take my gloves off and reach f or my phone, I think, “It can't be that tough to make headphones with two plugs, one for music a nd one for your cell phone.” Alden described what he wanted to a designer, perfected a prototyp e, and outsourced(外包)manufacturing overseas.Alden then started designing headphones into helmets, backpacks - anywhere that would make it easy to listen to music while snowboarding. “Selling into board and skate shops wasn't a big res earch effort,” he explains. “Those were the only guys I knew!”Alden didn‟t want to be a manufacturer. And by outsourcing, he'd hoped he could get the business off the ground without debt. But he was wrong. So he asked his wife, “Can I put a (抵押贷款) on the house? She said, …What is the worst thing that can happen? Welose the house, we sell our cars, and we start all over again.‟ I definitely married the right woman!”For the next two years, Alden juggled mortgage payments and payments to his manufacturers. “Factories won't ship your product till they get paid,” he says. “But it takes four or five months t o get a mortgage company so upset that they knock on your door. So we paid the factory first.”Gradually, non-snowboarders began to notice the colorful headphones. In 2006, the company start ed selling them in 1,400 FYE (For Your Entertainment) stores. “We knew that nine out often peo ple walking into that store would be learning about Skullcandy for the first time. Why would the y look at brands they knew and take home a new brand instead? We had agreed to buy back anyth ing we didn’t sell, but we were dealing with huge numbers. It’d kill us to take back all the produc tsAlden‟s fears faded as Skullcandy became the No. 1 headphone seller in those stores and tripled its revenue to $120 million in one year. His key insight was that headphones weren’tgadgets; they were a fashion accessory. “In the beginning,” he says, “that little white wire th at said you had an iPod ---that was cool. But now wearing the white bud means you’re just like e veryone else. Headphones occupy this critical piece of cranial real estate and are highly visible.”Today, Skullcandy is America's second-largest headphone supplier, after Sony. With 79 employees , the company is bigger than Alden ever imagined.86. Alden came up with the idea of a new kind of headphone because he ______.A. was no longer in snowboarding business.B. had no other business opportunities.C. was very fond of modern music.D. saw an inconvenience among mobile users.87. The new headphone was originally designed for ______.A. snowboarders.B. motorcyclists.C. mountain hikers.D. marathon runners.88. Did Alden solve the money problem? ______.A. He sold his house and his cars.B. Factories could ship products before being paid.C. He borrowed money from a mortgage company.D. He borrowed money from his wife's family.89. What did Alden do to promote sales in FYE stores? ______.A. He spent more money on product advertising.B. He promised to buy back products not sold.C. He agreed to sell products at a discount.D. He improved the colour design of the product.90. Alden sees headphones as ______.A. a sign of self-confidence.B. a symbol of status.C. part of fashion.D. a kind of device.TEXT CI was standing in my kitchen wondering what to have for lunch when my friend Taj called. “Sit down,” she said. I thought she was going to tell me she had just gotten the haircut from hell. I laughed and said, “It can't be that bad.”But it was. Before the phone call, I had 30 years of retirement saving in a “safe” fund with a brilliant financial guru(金融大亨).When I put down the phone, my savings weregone. I felt as if I had died and, for some unknown reason, was still breathing.Since Bernie Madoff‟s arrest on charges of running a $65 million Ponzi scheme, I'veread many articles about how we investors should have known what was going on. I wish Icould say I had reservations about Madoff before “the Call”, but I did not.On New Year's Eve, three weeks after we lost our savings, six of us Madoff people gathered at Taj's house for dinner. As we were sitting around the table, someone asked, “If you could have your money back right now, but it would mean giving up what you have learned by losing it, would you take the money or would you take what losing the money has given you?”My husband was still in financial shock. He said, “I just want the money back.” I wasn't certai n where I stood. I knew that losing our money had cracked me wide open. I’d been walking aroun d like what the Buddhists call a hungry ghost: always focused on the bite that was yet to come, n ot the one in my mouth. No matter how much I ate or had or experienced, it didn’t satisfy me, be cause I wasn’t really taking it in, wasn't absorbing it. Now I was forced to pay attention. Still, I c ouldn't honestly say that if someone had offered me the money back, I would turn it down.But the other four all said that what they were seeing about themselves was incalculable, and they didn’t think it would have become apparent without the ground of financial stability being ripped out from underneath them.My friend Michael said,I’d started to get complacent. It’s as if the muscles of my heart started to a trophy(萎缩). Now they‟re awake, alive—and I don‟t want to go back.”Theseweren’tjust empty words. Michael and his wife needed to take in boarders to meet their expenses. Taj was so broke that she was moving into someone’s garage apartment in three weeks. Three friends had declared bankruptcy and weren't sure where or how they were going to live.91. What did the author learn from Taj‟s call?A. had got an awful haircut.B. They had lost their retirement savings.C. Taj had just retired from work.D. They were going to meet for lunch.92. How did the author feel in the following weeks?A. Angry.B. Disappointed.C. Indifferent.D. Desperate.93. According to the passage, to which was she “forced to pay attention”?A. Her friends.B. Her husband.C. Her lost savings.D. Her experience.94. Which of the following statements is CORRECT about her friends?A. Her friends valued their experience more.B. Her friends felt the same as she did.C. Her friends were in a better financial situation.D Her friends were more optimistic than she.95. What is the message of the passage?A. Desire for money is human nature.B. One has to be decisive during crises.C. Understanding gained is more important than money lost.D. It is natural to see varied responses to financial crises.TEXT DIn the 19th century, there used to be a model of how to be a good person. There are all these torren ts of passion flowing through you. Your job, as captain of your soul, is to erect dams to keep these passions in check. Your job is to just say no to laziness, lust, greed, drug use and the other sins. These days that model is out of fashion. You usually can’t change your behaviour by simply resol ving to do something. Knowing what to do is not the same as being able to do it.Your willpower is not like a dam that can block the torrent of self-indulgence. It's more like a mu scle, which tires easily. Moreover, you're a social being. If everybody around you is overeating, y ou‟ll probably do so, too.The 19th-century character model was based on an understanding of free will. Today, weknow that free will is bounded. People can change their lives, but ordering change is notsimple because many things, even within ourselves, are beyond our direct control.Much of our behaviour, for example, is guided by unconscious habits. Researchers atDuke University calculated that more than 40 percent of the actions we take are governed byhabit, not actual decisions. Researchers have also come to understand the structure of habits—cue, routine, reward.You can change your own personal habits. If you leave running shorts on the floor atnight, that'll be a cue to go running in the morning. Don‟t try to ignore your afternoon snackcraving. Every time you feel the cue for a snack, insert another routine. Take a walk.Their research thus implies a different character model, which is supposed to manipulatethe neural(神经系统的)networks inside.To be an effective person, under this model, you are supposed to coolly examine yourown unconscious habits, and the habits of those under your care. You are supposed to devisestrategies to alter the cues and routines. Every relationship becomes slightly manipulative, inclu ding your relationship with yourself. You're trying to arouse certain responses by implanting cert ain cues.This is a bit disturbing, because the important habitual neural networks are not formedby mere routine, nor can they be reversed by clever cues. They are burned in by emotion and strengthened by strong yearnings, like the yearnings for admiration and righteousness. If you think you can change your life in a clever way, the way an advertiser can get you to buy an air freshene r, you're probably wrong. As the Victorians understood, if you want to change your life, don’t just look for a clever cue. Commit to some larger global belief.96. Which of the following is a key element in the 19th-century character model?A. Passion.B. Action.C. Capability.D. Determination.97. The 19th-century model supposedly does not work because ______.A. there were many other factors beyond one's control.B. it has worked unsatisfactorily most of the time.C. the comparison of free will to a dam is groundless.D. what one wishes to do should be considered carefully.98. What is the main implication of the research at Duke University?A. Habit is key to one's behaviour.B. One's behaviour is difficult to change.C. Both habit and will power are important.D. Habit has an unidentified structure.99. According to the new character model, personal behaviour could be altered through ______.A. cues to stop all the former unconscious habits.B. cues to manipulate the habitual neural responses.C. techniques to devise different physical cues.D. techniques to supplement old routines.100. We learn from the passage that the new character model ______.A. stresses the neural and psychological aspects of habit change.B. can bring about changes in one's life like what advertisers do.C. has been used to change behaviour successfully.D. deals better with emotional aspects of behaviour.P ART VI WRITINGSECTION A COMPOSITION 45 MINMost of us, as students, are careful with our money in daily life: we collect all kinds of coupons;we look for group-buy deals if we eat out or travel; we don't buy clothes unless in a sale. However, so me people think that all this may not make us smart consumers. What is your opinion?Write on ANSWER SHEET THREE a composition of about 200 words. You are to write in three parts.In the first part, state specifically what your opinion is.In the second part, provide one or two reasons or your experience (s) to support your opinion.In the last part, bring what you have written to a natural conclusion or make a summary.You should supply an appropriate title for your composition.Marks will be awarded for content, organization, language and appropriateness.SECTION B NOTE-WRITING [10 MIN]Write on ANSWER SHEET THREE a note of about 50-60 words based on the following situation: Your former high-school classmate (Mathew or Grace) is coming to visit you in the dorm. But, you ha ve got something urgent to do and thus cannot wait for him/her there. Leave a note on the door, expres sing your apology and telling him/her how to find you. You must make clear where you are in the note.Marks will be awarded for content, organization, language and appropriateness.附:【答案详解】PART 1 DictationWhat is a dream for?One theory is that we dream to release the deep secret desires. We don't express these desires in real life because of the rules of polite society. Another theory is that dreams allow us to solve problems that we can't solve in real life. We go to sleep with the problem and wake up with the solution. This maybe a way to use our dreams rather than a purpose of dreaming. If you believe that your dreams are important, then analyzing them may help you to focus on the problem and help you to find the solution. The modern image is that the dreams are the brains' wave of cleaning up the computer's hard disk. Dreams organize the events of the day into folders and delete what is not needed. But we all know that very little of what we dream is concerned with what happened to us that day.PART 2 LITENING COMPREHENSION1-10 ABCAD ACAAD11-20 DCADB BBDAC21-30 DBADB CBBCAPART 3 CLOZE31-40 DACBD CBACB41-50 DCADB BCDBBPART 4 GRAMMAR & VOCABULARY51—55 CDBAC 56—60 BDCAA 61—65 BBACA66—70 CABDA 71—75 CBDAC 76—80 CADBAPART 5 READING COMPREHENSION81-85 CACDB86-90 DACBC91-95 BDDAC96-100 DAACAPART 6 WRITINGSECTION A COMPOSITIONThe advantages of being careful with money in daily lifeNowadays, there is a hot debate on whether people, including students should be careful with their money in their daily life since they try their best to save money. Some people think it is not good to do so because this may not make people smart consumers. But in my eyes, the advantages of being careful with money in daily life outweigh the disadvantages.First, being careful with money is a virtue that can always benefit people. Being thrifty is of great help, especially when the economic status around the world is not very good and it becomes harder to earn money than before. A good habit of being careful with money will help many people go through this difficult period or any other difficult financial situation in their life. People with this awareness will think carefully before deciding to buy anything. For students, this awareness is also of great help since they mainly depend on their parents for financial supports. When they keep this awareness in their mind, they will definitely avoid wasting money.Secondly, being careful with money is, in fact, a good way of practicing how to manageone's money. In current society, it is necessary to learn something about finance. But theories are usually hard to learn. In contrast, most people can learn quickly by practicing. Being careful with money means an efficient use of money, which, in essence, equals to part of the job of a financial planner. Being careful with money can teach people to make best use of their money.It is true that being too careful with money may have some disadvantages; for example, it may cause people to ignore other aspects of commodities. But overall this behavior is good and has its reality basis. Money-consciousness is always needed in the market-oriented economy.SECTION BApril 20 Dear Mathew,I'm writing to show my apology for being unable to wait for you in my dorm. I'm really sorry but I have something urgent to do. You can come to Room 1003, No. 3 Teaching Building to find me. The map on the back of the note will help you. I'll wait for you there.Yours,Tom。

research to look at whether they have a long-term impact on lifespan.Researchers(32)________more than100,000people for more than14years monitoring their diets health outcomes.Everyone involved in the study was healthy in1984when they enrolled,but when they were followed up in2010more than26,000had died.However,those who ate the most whole grains,such as porridge,brown rice and corn seemed

passages followed by ten multiple choice questions.For each question, there are four suggested answers marked[A],[B],[C]and[D].Choose the one that you think is the best answer and mark your answers on ANSWER SHEET TWO.PASSAGE ONE(1)The art of public speaking began in ancient Greece over2,000years ago.Now,twitter,instant messaging, e-mail,blogs and chat forums offer rival approaches to communication—but none can replace the role of a great speech.(2)The spoken word can handle various vital functions:persuading or inspiring,informing,paying tribute, entertaining,or simply introducing someone or something oraccepting something.(3)Over the past year,the human voice has helped guide us over the ups and downs of what was certainly a stormy time.(4)Persuasion is used in dealing with or reconciling different points of view.When the leaders met in Copenhagen in December2009,persuasive words from activists encouraged them to commit themselves to firmer action.(5)Inspirational speeches confront the emotions.They focus on topics and matters that are close to people’s hearts.During wars,generals used inspiring speeches to prepare the troops for battle.(6)A speech that conveys knowledge and enhances understanding can inform us.The information must be clear,accurate,and expressed in a meaningful and interesting way.When the H1N1pandemic(流行病)was announced,the idea of“swine flu”(猪流感)scared many /doc/f512487721.html,rmative speeches from World Health Organization officials helped people to keep their panic under control so they could take sensible precautions.(7)Sad events are never easy to deal with but a speech that pays tribute to the loss of a loved one and gives praise for their contribution can be comforting.Madonna’s speech about Michael Jackson,after his death, highlighted the fact that he will continue to live on through his music.(8)It’s not only in world forums where public speaking plays an important role.It can also be surprisingly helpful in the course of our own lives.(9)If you’re taking part in a debate you need to persuade the listeners of the soundness of your argument.In sports,athletes know the importance of a pep talk(鼓舞士气的讲话)before a match to inspire teammates.You yourself may be asked to do a presentation at college or work to inform the others about an area of vital importance.(10)On a more personal level,a friend may be upset and need comforting.Or you might be asked to introducea speaker at a family event or to speak at a wedding,where your language will be needed to move people or make them laugh.(11)Great speaking ability is not something we’re born with.Even Barack Obama works hard to perfect every speech.For a brilliant speech,there are rules that you can put to good use.To learn those rules you have to practice and learn form some outstanding speeches in the past.41.Which of the following statements is INCORRECT about the role or public speaking?[A]Speeches at world forums can lead to effective solutions to world problems.[B]Speeches from medical authorities can calm people down in times of pandemics.[C]The morale of soldiers before a battle can be boosted by senior officers’speeches.[D]Speeches paying tribute to the dead can comfort the mourners.42.Public speaking can play all the following roles EXCEPT_______.[A]to convince people in a debate[B]to inform people at a presentation[C]to advise people at work[D]to entertain people at a wedding43.What is the main idea of the passage?[A]Public speaking in international forums.[B]Public speaking in daily life context.[C]The many uses of public speaking.[D]The rules of public speaking.PASSAGE TWO(1)Every business needs two things,says Skullcandy CEO Rick Alden:inspiration and desperation.In2001, Alden had both.He’d sold two snowboarding businesses,and he was desperately bored.But be had an idea:He wanted to make a new kind of headphone.(2)“I kept seeing people missing their cell phone calls because they were listening to music,”he explains.“Then I’m in a chairlift(索道),I’ve got my headphones on,and I realize my phone is ringing.As I take my gloves off and reach for my phone,I think,‘It can’t be that tough to make headphones with two plugs,one for music and one for your cell phone.’”Alden described what he wanted to a designer,perfected a prototype,and outsourced(外包)manufacturing overseas.(3)Alden then started designing headphones into helmets,backpacks—anywhere that would make it easy to listen to music while snowboarding.“Selling into board and skate shops wasn’t a big research effort,”he explains.“Those were the only guys I knew!”(4)Alden d idn’t want to be a manufacturer.And by outsourcing,he’d hoped he could get the business off the ground without debt.But he was wrong.But he was wrong.So he asked his wife,“Can I put a mortgage(抵押贷款)on the house?She said,‘What is the worst thing that can ha ppen?We lose the house,we sell our cars,and we start all over again.’I definitely married the right woman!”(5)For the next two years,Alden juggled mortgage payments and payments to his manufacturers.“Factories won’t ship your product till they get paid,”he says.“But it takes four or five months to get a mortgage company so upset that they knock on your door.So we paid the factory first.”(6)Gradually,non-snowboarders began to notice the colourful headphones.In2006,the company started selling them in1,400FY E(For Your Entertainment)stores.“We knew that nine out of ten people walking into that store would be learning about Skullcandy for the first time.Why would they look at brands they knew and take home a new brand instead?We had agreed to buy back anything we didn’t sell,but we were dealing with huge numbers.It’d kill us to take back all the products.”(7)Alden’s fears faded as Skullcandy became the No.1headphone seller in those stores and tripled its revenue to$120million in one year.His key insight was that headphones weren’t gadgets;they were a fashion accessory.“In the beginning,”he says,“that little white wire that said you had an iPod—that was cool.But now wearing the white bud means you’re just like everyone else.Headphones occupy this critical piece of cranial real estate and arehighly visible.”(8)Today,Skullcandy is America’s second-largest headphone supplier,after Sony.With79employees,the company is bigger than Alden ever imagined.44.Alden came up with the idea of a new kind of headphone because he________.[A]was no longer in snowboarding business[B]had no other business opportunities[C]saw an inconvenience among mobile users[D]was very fond of modern music45.What did Alden do to promote sales in FYE stores?[A]He spent more money on product advertising.[B]He agreed to sell products at a discount.[C]He improved the colour design of the product.[D]He promised to buy back products not sold.46.Alden sees headphones as________.[A]a kind of device[B]part of fashion[C]a symbol of status[D]a sign of self-confidencePASSAGE THREE(1)I was standing in my kitchen wondering what to have for lunch when my friend Taj called.(2)“Sit down,”she said.(3)I thought she was going to tell me she had just gotten the haircut from hell.I laughed and said,“It can’t be that bad.”(4)But it was.Before the phone call,I had30years of retirement saving in a“safe”fund with a brilliant financial guru(金融大亨).When I put down the phone,my savings were gone.I felt as if I had died and,for some unknown reason,was still breathing.(5)Since Bernie Madoff’s arrest on charges of running a$65million Ponzi scheme,I’ve read many articles about how we investors should have known what was going on.I wish I could say I had reservations about Madoff before“the Call”,but I did not.(6)On New Year’s Eve,three weeks after we lost our savings,six of us Madoff people gathered at Taj’s house for dinner.As we were sitting around the table,someone asked,“If you could have your money back right now,bot it would mean giving up what you have learned by losing it,would you take the money or would you take what losing the money has given you?”(7)My husband was still in financial shock.He said,“I just want the money back.”I wasn’t certain where I stood.I knew that losing our money had cracked me wide open.I’d been walking around like what the Buddhists call a hungry ghost:always focused on the bite that was yet to come,not the one in my mouth.No matter how much I ate or had or experienced,it didn’t satisfy me,because I wasn’t really taking it in,wasn’t absorbing it.Now I was forced to pay attention.Still,I couldn’t honestly say that if someone had offered me the money back,I would turn it down.(8)But the other four all said that what they were seeing about themselves was incalculable,and they didn’t th ink it would have become apparent without the ground of financial stability being ripped out from underneath them.(9)My friend Michael said,“I’d started to get complacent.It’s as if the muscles of my heart started to atrophy (萎缩).Now they’re awake,alive—a nd I don’t want to go back.”(10)These weren’t just empty words.Michael and his wife needed to take in boarders to meet their expenses. Taj was so broke that she was moving into someone’s garage apartment in three weeks.Three friends had declared bankruptcy and weren’t sure where or how they were going to live.47.How did the author feel in the following weeks?[A]Desperate[B]Indifferent.[C]Disappointed.[D]Angry.48.Which of the following statements is CORRECT about her friends?[A]Her friends felt the same as she did.[B]Her friends valued their experience more.[C]Her friends were in a better financial situation.[D]Her friends were more optimistic than she.PASSAGE FOUR(1)In he19th century,there used to be a model of how to bea good person.There are all these torrents of passion flowing through you.Your job,as captain of your soul,is to erect dams to keep these passions in check. Your job is to just say no to laziness,lust,greed,drug use and the other sins.(2)These days that model is of fashion.You usua lly can’t change your behaviour by simply resolving to do something.Knowing what to do is not the same as being able to do it.Your willpower is not like a dam that can block the torrent of self-indulgence.It’s more like a muscle,which tires easily.Moreover,you’re a social being.If everybody around you is overeating,you’ll probably do so,too.(3)The19th-century character model was based on an understanding of free will.Today,we know that free will is bounded.People can change their lives,but ordering change is not simple because many things,even within ourselves,are beyond our direct control.(4)Much of our behaviour,for example,is guided by unconscious habits.Researchers at Duke University calculated that more than40percent of the actions we take are governed by habit,not actual decisions.Researchers have also come to understand the structure of habits—cue,routine,reward.(5)You can change your own personal habits.If you leave running shorts on the floor at night,that’ll be cue to go running in the morning.Do n’t try to ignore your afternoon snack craving.Every time you feel the cue for a snack,insert another routine.Take a walk.(6)Their research thus implies a different charactermodel,which is supposed to manipulate the neural(神经系统)networks inside.(7)To be an effective person,under this model,you are supposed to coolly examine your own unconscious habits,and the habits of those under your care.You are supposed to devise strategies to alter the cues and routines. Every relationship becomes slightly manipulative,including your relationship with yourself.You’re trying to arouse certain responses by implanting certain cues.(8)This is a bit disturbing,because the important habitual neural networks are not formed by mere routine,nor can they be reversed by clever cues.They are burned in by emotion and strengthened by strong yearnings,like the yearnings for admiration and righteousness.(9)If you think you can change your life in a clever way,the way an advertiser can get you to buy an air freshener,you’re probably wrong.As the Victorians understood,if you want to change your life,don’t just look fora clever /doc/f512487721.html,mit to some larger global belief.49.The19th-century does not work because________.[A]it has worked unsatisfactorily most of the time[B]the comparison of free will to a dam is groundless[C]what one wishes to do should be considered carefully[D]there were many other factors beyond one’s control50.We learn from the passage that the new character model________.[A]has been used to change behaviour successfully[B]deals better with emotional aspects of behaviour[C]stresses the neural and psychological aspects of habitchange[D]can bring about changes in one’s life like what advertisers doSECTION B SHORT ANSWER QUESTIONSIn this section there are five short answer questions based on the passages in Section A.Answer the questions with NO more than TEN words in the space provided on ANSWER SHEET TWO.PASSAGE ONE51.Why does the author think the spoken word is still irreplaceable?PASSAGE TWO52.How did Alden solve the money problem?PASSAGE THREE53.What did the author learn from T aj’s call?54.What is the message of the passage?PASSAGE FOUR55.What is the main implication of the research at Duke University?PARTⅥWRITING[45MIN] Should college students undertake a period of unpaid work helping people in the community or only do paid work?The following are the supporters’and opponents’opinions.Read carefully the opinions from both sides and write your response in about200words,in which you should first summarize briefly the opinions from both sides and give your view on the issue.Marks will be awarded for content relevance,content sufficiency,organization and language quality. Failure to follow the above instructions may result in a loss of marks.YES NOThrough voluntary work in the community,college studentscan gain working experience and practice their skills,which are helpful for their future career life.For example,college students can improve their problem-solving abilities,communication skills and teamwork spirit via interaction with people in the community.As college students are easy to get lost in terms of what they want for their personal life,they will get a sense of belonging to the community through their work,which is beneficial for their work,which is beneficial for their personal development.The unpaid work of college students can reduce the financial burden of the community,which enables the local government to improve the residential environment or support the old and the handicapped.Unpaid social work might occupy college students’studying time,which will lead to a reduction in their learning efficiency in school.The community has to spend much energy ensuring college students’safety and avoiding potential confl icts between them because they come from different social backgrounds.With so many voluntary college students possessing different specialties and characters,the community has to do a lot of work to investigate them in order to make sure whether he or she is suitable for the job,so it’s difficult for the community to organize them to work systematically and efficiently.Write your response on ANSWER SHEET THREE.—THE END—PARTⅡLISTENING COMPRENSIONSECTION A TALK下列各题必须使用黑色字迹签字笔在答题区域内作答,超出红色矩形边框限定区域的答案无效。

Choose the one that you think is the best answer.Mark your answers on Answer Sheet Two.TEXT AThe art of public speaking began in ancient Greece over 2,000 years ago. No w, twitter, instant messaging, e-mail, blogs and chat forums offer rival approa ches to communication—but none can replace the role of a great speech.The spoken word can handle various vital functions: persuading or inspiring, informing, paying tribute, entertaining, or simply introducing someone or some thing or accepting something.Over the past year, the human voice has helped guide us over the ups and do wns of what was certainly a stormy time.Persuasion is used in dealing with or reconciling different points of view. When the leaders met in Copenhagen in December 2009, persuasive words from act ivists encouraged them to commit themselves to firmer action.Inspirational speeches confront the emotions. They focus on topics and matt ers that are close to people's hearts. During wars, generals used inspiring spe eches to prepare the troops for battle.A speech that conveys knowledge and enhances understanding can inform us. T he information must be clear, accurate, and expressed in a meaningful and inter esting way. When the H1N1 pandemic(流行病)was announced, the idea of “swine fl u”(猪流感)scared many people. Informative speeches from World Health Organizat ion officials helped people to keep their panic under control so they could tak e sensible precautions.Sad events are never easy to deal with but a speech that pays tribute to th e loss of a loved one and gives praise for their contribution can be comforting. Madonna's speech about Michael Jackson, after his death, highlighted the fact that he will continue to live on through his music.It's not only in world forums where public speaking plays an important role. It can also be surprisingly helpful in the course of our own lives.If you’re taking part in a debate you need to persuade the listeners of th e soundness of your argument. In sports, athletes know the importance of a pep talk(鼓舞士气的讲话)before a match to inspire teammates. You yourself may be as ked to do a presentation at college or work to inform the others about an area of vital importance.On a more personal level, a friend may be upset and need comforting. Or you might be asked to introduce a speaker at a family event or to speak at a weddi ng, where your language will be needed to move people or make them laugh.Great speaking ability is not something we're born with. Even Barack Obama works hard to perfect every speech. For a brilliant speech, there are rules tha t you can put to good use. To learn those rules you have to practice and learn from some outstanding speeches in the past.81. The author thinks the spoken word is still irreplaceable becauseA. it has always been used to inspire or persuade people.B. it has a big role to play in the entertainment business.C. it plays important roles in human communication.D. it is of great use in everyday-life context.82. Which of the following statements is INCORRECT about the role of public speaking?A. Speeches at world forums can lead to effective solutions to world proble ms.B. Speeches from medical authorities can calm people down in times of pande mics.C. The morale of soldiers before a battle can be boosted by senior officers ' speeches.D. Speeches paying tribute to the dead can comfort the mourners.83. Public speaking can play all the following roles EXCEPTA. to convince people in a debate.B. to inform people at a presentation.C. to advise people at work.D. to entertain people at a wedding.84. According to the passage, which of the following best explains the auth or's view on “great speaking ability”?A. It comes from observing rules.B. It can be perfected with easy effort.C. It can be acquired from birth.D. It comes from learning and practice.85. What is the main idea of the passage?A. Public speaking in international forums.B. The many uses of public speaking.C. Public speaking in daily life context.D. The rules of public speaking.TEXT BEvery business needs two things, says Skullcandy CEO Rick Alden: inspiratio n and desperation. In 2001, Alden had both. He'd sold two snowboarding business es, and he was desperately bored. But he had an idea: He wanted to make a new k ind of headphone.“I kept seeing people missing their cell phone calls because they were lis tening to music,” he explains. Then I'm in a chairlift(索道), I've got my head phones on, and I realize my phone is ringing. As 1 take my gloves off and reach for my phone, I think, “It can't be that tough to make headphones with two pl ugs, one for music and one for your cell phone.” Alden described what he wante d to a designer, perfected a prototype, and outsourced(外包)manufacturing overs eas.Alden then started designing headphones into helmets, backpacks - anywhere that would make it easy to listen to music while snowboarding. “Selling into b oard and skate shops wasn't a big research effort,” he explains. “Those were the only guys I knew!”Alden didn’t want to be a manufacturer. And by outsourcing, he'd hoped he could get the business off the ground without debt. But he was wrong. So he ask ed his wife, “Can I put a mortgage(抵押贷款) on the house? She said, ‘What is the worst thing that can happen? We lose the house, we sell our cars, and we st art all over again.’ I definitely married the right woman!”For the next two years, Alden juggled mortgage payments and payments to his manufacturers. “Factories won't ship your product till they get paid,” he sa ys. “But it takes four or five months to get a mortgage company so upset that they knock on your door. So we paid the factory first.”Gradually, non-snowboarders began to notice the colorful headphones. In 200 6, the company started selling them in 1,400 FYE (For Your Entertainment) store s. “We knew that nine out often people walking into that store would be learni ng about Skullcandy for the first time. Why would they look at brands they knew and take home a new brand instead? We had agreed to buy back anything we didn’t sell, but we were dealing with huge numbers. It’d kill us to take back all t he products.”Alden’s fears faded as Skullcandy became the No. 1 headphone seller in tho se stores and tripled its revenue to $120 million in one year. His key insight was that headphones weren’t gadgets; they were a fashion accessory. “In the b eginning,” he says, “that little white wire that said you had an iPod—that w as cool. But now wearing the white bud means you’re just like everyone else. Headphones occupy this critical piece of cranial real estate and are highly visi ble.”Today, Skullcandy is America's second-largest headphone supplier, after Son y. With 79 employees, the company is bigger than Alden ever imagined.86. Alden came up with the idea of a new kind of headphone because heA. was no longer in snowboarding business.B. had no other business opportunities.C. was very fond of modern music.D. saw an inconvenience among mobile users.87. The new headphone was originally designed forA. snowboarders.B. motorcyclists.C. mountain hikers.D. marathon runners.88. Did Alden solve the money problem?A. He sold his house and his cars.B. Factories could ship products before being paid.C. He borrowed money from a mortgage company.D. He borrowed money from his wife's family.89. What did Alden do to promote sales in FYE stores?A. He spent more money on product advertising.B. He promised to buy back products not sold.C. He agreed to sell products at a discount.D. He improved the colour design of the product.90. Alden sees headphones asA. a sign of self-confidence.B. a symbol of status.C. part of fashion.D. a kind of device.TEXT CI was standing in my kitchen wondering what to have for lunch when my frien d Taj called.“Sit down,” she said.I thought she was going to tell me she had just gotten the haircut from hel l. I laughed and said, “It can't be that bad.”But it was. Before the phone call, I had 30 years of retirement saving in a “safe” fund with a brilliant financial guru(金融大亨).When I put down the ph one, my savings were gone. I felt as if I had died and, for some unknown reason, was still breathing.Since Bernie Madoff’s arrest on charges of running a $65 million Ponzi sch eme, I’ve read many articles about how we investors should have known what was going on. I wish I could say I had reservations about Madoff before “the Call”, but I did not.On New Year’s Eve, three weeks after we lost our savings, six of us Madoff people gathered at Taj's house for dinner. As we were sitting around the table, someone asked, “If you could have your money back right now, but it would mea n giving up what you have learned by losing it, would you take the money or wou ld you take what losing the money has given you?”My husband was still in financial shock. He said, “I just want the money b ack.” I wasn't certain where I stood. I knew that losing our money had crackedme wide open. I’d been walking around like what the Buddhists call a hungry gh ost: always focused on the bite that was yet to come, not the one in my mouth. No matter how much I ate or had or experienced, it didn’t satisfy me, because I wasn’t really taking it in, wasn't absorbing it. Now I was forced to pay att ention. Still, I couldn't honestly say that if someone had offered me the money back, I would turn it down.But the other four all said that what they were seeing about themselves was incalculable, and they didn’t think it would have become apparent without the ground of financial stability being ripped out from underneath them.My friend Michael said, “I’d started to get complacent. It’s as if the m uscles of my heart started to atrophy(萎缩). Now they’re awake, alive—and I d on’t want to go back.”These weren’t just empty words. Michael and his wife needed to take in boa rders to meet their expenses. Taj was so broke that she was moving into someon e’s garage apartment in three weeks. Three friends had declared bankruptcy and weren't sure where or how they were going to live.91. What did the author learn from Taj’s call?A. had got an awful haircut.B. They had lost their retirement savings.C. Taj had just retired from work.D. They were going to meet for lunch.92. How did the author feel in the following weeks?A. Angry.B. Disappointed.C. Indifferent.。

Choose the one that you think is the best ans wer. Mark your answers on Answer Sheet Two.TEXT AThe art of public speaking began in ancient Greece over 2,000 years ago. Now, twitter, instant me ssaging, e-mail, blogs and chat forums offer rival approaches to communication - but none can rep lace the role of a great speech.The spoken word can handle various vital functions: persuading or inspiring, informing, paying t ribute, entertaining, or simply introducing someone or something or accepting something. Over t he past year, the human voice has helped guide us over the ups and downs of what was certainly a stormy time.Persuasion is used in dealing with or reconciling different points of view. When the leaders met in Copenhagen in December 2009, persuasive words from activists encouraged them to commit them selves to firmer action. Inspirational speeches confront the emotions. They focus on topics and m atters that are close to people's hearts. During wars, generals used inspiring speeches to prepare the troops for battle.A speech that conveys knowledge and enhances understanding can inform us. The information m ust be clear, accurate, and expressed in a meaningful and interesting way. (流行病)announced, the idea of “swine flu ”many people. Informative speeches from World Health Orga nization officials helped people to keep their panic under control so they could take sensible preca utions.Sad events are never easy to deal with but a speech that pays tribute to the loss of a loved one an d gives praise for their contribution can be comforting. Madonna's speech about Michael Jackson ,after his death, highlighted the fact that he will continue to live on through his music.It's not only in world forums where public speaking plays an important role. It can also be surprisi ngly helpful in the course of our own lives.If you ?re taking part in a debate you need to persuade the listeners of the soundness ofyour argument. In sports, athletes know the importance of a pep talk (鼓舞士气的讲话)before a match to inspire teammates. You yourself may be asked to do a presentation at colle ge or work to inform the others about an area of vital importance.On a more personal level, a friend may be upset and need comforting. Or you might beasked to introduce a speaker at a family event or to speak at a wedding, where your language will be needed to move people or make them laugh.Great speaking ability is not something we're born with. Even Barack Obama works hardto perfect every speech. For a brilliant speech, there are rules that you can put to good use. To lear n those rules you have to practice and learn from some outstanding speeches in the past.81. The author thinks the spoken word is still irreplaceable because ______.A. it has always been used to inspire or persuade people.B. it has a big role to play in the entertainment business.C. it plays important roles in human communication.D. it is of great use in everyday-life context.82. Which of the following statements is INCORRECT about the role of public speaking? _____A. Speeches at world forums can lead to effective solutions to world problems.B. Speeches from medical authorities can calm people down in times of pandemics.C. The morale of soldiers before a battle can be boosted by senior officers' speeches.D. Speeches paying tribute to the dead can comfort the mourners.83. Public speaking can play all the following roles EXCEPT ______.A. to convince people in a debate.B. to inform people at a presentation.C. to advise people at work.D. to entertain people at a wedding.84. According to the passage, which of the following best explains the author's view on ______ “great speaking ability ”?A. It comes from observing rules.B. It can be perfected with easy effort.C. It can be acquired from birth.D. It comes from learning and practice.85. What is the main idea of the passage? ______.A. Public speaking in international forums.B. The many uses of public speaking.C. Public speaking in daily life context.D. The rules of public speaking.TEXT BEvery business needs two things, says Skullcandy CEO Rick Alden: inspiration and desperation.In 2001, Alden had both. He'd sold two snowboarding businesses, and he was desperately bored. But he had an idea: He wanted to make a new kind of headphone. “I kept seeing people missing their cell phone calls because they were listening to music, ”he explains. Then I'm in a chairlift, I've got my headphones on, and I realize my phone is ringing. As 1 take my gloves off and reach f or my phone, I think, “It can't be that tough to make headphones with two plugs, one for music a nd one for your cell phone. ”Alden described what he wanted to a designer, perfected a prototyp e, and outsourced(外包)manufacturing overseas.Alden then started designing headphones into helmets, backpacks - anywhere that would make it easy to listen to music while snowboarding. “Selling into board and skate shops wasn't a big res earch effort,”he explains. “Those were the only guys I knew! ”Alden didn ?t want to be a manufacturer. And by outsourcing, he'd hoped he could get thebusiness off the ground without debt. But he was wrong. So he asked his wife, “Can I put a(抵押贷款)on the house? She said,, What is the worst thing that can happen? Welose the house, we sell our cars, and we start all over again. ?I definitely married the rightwoman!”For the next two years, Alden juggled mortgage payments and payments to his manufacturers. “Factories won't ship your product till they get paid, ”he says.“But it takes four or five months t o get a mortgage company so upset that they knock on your door. So we paid the factory first. ”Gradually, non-snowboarders began to notice the colorful headphones. In 2006, the company start ed selling them in 1,400 FYE (For Your Entertainment) stores. “We knew that nine out often peo ple walking into that store would be learning about Skullcandy for the first time. Why would they look at brands they knew and take home a new brand instead? We had agreed to buy back anyth ing we didn ’t sell, but we were dealing with huge numbers. It ’d kill us to take back all the produc tsAlden ?s fears faded as Skullcandy became the No. 1 headphone seller in those stores andtripled its revenue to $120 million in one year. His key insight was that headphones weren ’t gadgets; they were a fashion accessory.“In the beginning, ”he says,“that little white wire that said you had an iPod ---that was cool. But now wearing the white bud means you ’r e just like e veryone else. Headphones occupy this critical piece of cranial real estate and are highly visible. ”Today, Skullcandy is America's second-largest headphone supplier, after Sony. With 79 employees , the company is bigger than Alden ever imagined.86. Alden came up with the idea of a new kind of headphone because he ______.A. was no longer in snowboarding business.B. had no other business opportunities.C. was very fond of modern music.D. saw an inconvenience among mobile users.87. The new headphone was originally designed for ______.A. snowboarders.B. motorcyclists.C. mountain hikers.D. marathon runners.88. Did Alden solve the money problem? ______.A. He sold his house and his cars.B. Factories could ship products before being paid.C. He borrowed money from a mortgage company.D. He borrowed money from his wife's family.89. What did Alden do to promote sales in FYE stores? ______.A. He spent more money on product advertising.B. He promised to buy back products not sold.C. He agreed to sell products at a discount.D. He improved the colour design of the product.90. Alden sees headphones as ______.A. a sign of self-confidence.B. a symbol of status.C. part of fashion.D. a kind of device.TEXT CI was standing in my kitchen wondering what to have for lunch when my friend Taj called. “Sit down,”she said. I thought she was going to tell me she had just gotten the haircut from hell. I laughed and said, “It can't be that bad.”But it was. Before the phone call, I had 30 years of retirement saving in a “safe”fund with a brilliant financial guru (金融大亨).When I put down the phone, my savings weregone. I felt as if I had died and, for some unknown reason, was still breathing.Since Bernie Madoff ?s arrest on charges of running a $65 million Ponzi scheme, I'veread many articles about how we investors should have known what was going on. I wish Icould say I had reservations about Madoff before “the Call”, but I did not.On New Year's Eve, three weeks after we lost our savings, six of us Madoff people gathered atTaj's house for dinner. As we were sitting around the table, someone asked, “If you could have your money back right now, but it would mean giving up what you have learned by losing it,would you take the money or would you take what losing the money has given you? ”My husband was still in financial shock. He said, “I just want the money back. ”I wasn't certai n where I stood. I knew that losing our money had cracked me wide open. I ’d been walking aroun d like what the Buddhists call a hungry ghost: always focused on the bite that was yet to come, not the one in my mouth. No matter how much I ate or had or experienced, it didn ’t satisfy me, be cause I wasn’t really taking it in, wasn't absorbing it. Now I was forced to pay attention. Still, I c ouldn't honestly say that if someone had offered me the money back, I would turn it down.But the other four all said that what they were seeing about themselves was incalculable, andthey didn ’t think it would have become apparent without the ground of financial stability being ripped out from underneath them.My friend Michael said,I ’d started to get complacent. It ’s as if the muscles of my heart started to a trophy(萎缩). Now they ?re awake, alive—and I don ?t want to go back.”Theseweren’tjust empty words. Michael and his wife needed to take in boarders to meet their expenses. Taj was so broke that she was moving into someone ’s garage apartment in three weeks. Three friends had declared bankruptcy and weren't sure where or how they were going to live.91. What did the author learn from Taj ?s call?A. had got an awful haircut.B. They had lost their retirement savings.C. Taj had just retired from work.D. They were going to meet for lunch.92. How did the author feel in the following weeks?A. Angry.B. Disappointed.C. Indifferent.D. Desperate.93. According to the passage, to which was she “forced to pay attention ”?A. Her friends.B. Her husband.C. Her lost savings.D. Her experience.94. Which of the following statements is CORRECT about her friends?A. Her friends valued their experience more.B. Her friends felt the same as she did.C. Her friends were in a better financial situation.D Her friends were more optimistic than she.95. What is the message of the passage?A. Desire for money is human nature.B. One has to be decisive during crises.C. Understanding gained is more important than money lost.D. It is natural to see varied responses to financial crises.TEXT DIn the 19th century, there used to be a model of how to be a good person. There are all these torren ts of passion flowing through you. Your job, as captain of your soul, is to erect dams to keep these passions in check. Your job is to just say no to laziness, lust, greed, drug use and the other sins. These days that model is out of fashion. You usually can ’t change your behaviour by simply resol ving to do something. Knowing what to do is not the same as being able to do it.Your willpower is not like a dam that can block the torrent of self-indulgence. It's more like a mu scle, which tires easily. Moreover, you're a social being. If everybody around you is overeating, y ou?ll probably do so, too.The 19th-century character model was based on an understanding of free will. Today, weknow that free will is bounded. People can change their lives, but ordering change is notsimple because many things, even within ourselves, are beyond our direct control.Much of our behaviour, for example, is guided by unconscious habits. Researchers atDuke University calculated that more than 40 percent of the actions we take are governed by habit, not actual decisions. Researchers have also come to understand the structure of habits —cue, routine, reward.You can change your own personal habits. If you leave running shorts on the floor atnight, that'll be a cue to go running in the morning. Don ?t try to ignore your afternoon snack craving. Every time you feel the cue for a snack, insert another routine. Take a walk.Their research thus implies a different character model, which is supposed to manipulatethe neural(神经系统的)networks inside.To be an effective person, under this model, you are supposed to coolly examine yourown unconscious habits, and the habits of those under your care. You are supposed to devise strategies to alter the cues and routines. Every relationship becomes slightly manipulative, inclu ding your relationship with yourself. You're trying to arouse certain responses by implanting cert ain cues.This is a bit disturbing, because the important habitual neural networks are not formedby mere routine, nor can they be reversed by clever cues. They are burned in by emotion and strengthened by strong yearnings, like the yearnings for admiration and righteousness. If you think you can change your life in a clever way, the way an advertiser can get you to buy an air freshene r, you're probably wrong. As the Victorians understood, if you want to change your life, don ’t just look for a clever cue. Commit to some larger global belief.96. Which of the following is a key element in the 19th-century character model?A. Passion.B. Action.C. Capability.D. Determination.97. The 19th-century model supposedly does not work because ______.A. there were many other factors beyond one's control.B. it has worked unsatisfactorily most of the time.C. the comparison of free will to a dam is groundless.D. what one wishes to do should be considered carefully.98. What is the main implication of the research at Duke University?A. Habit is key to one's behaviour.B. One's behaviour is difficult to change.C. Both habit and will power are important.D. Habit has an unidentified structure.99. According to the new character model, personal behaviour could be altered through ______.A. cues to stop all the former unconscious habits.B. cues to manipulate the habitual neural responses.C. techniques to devise different physical cues.D. techniques to supplement old routines.100. We learn from the passage that the new character model ______.A. stresses the neural and psychological aspects of habit change.B. can bring about changes in one's life like what advertisers do.C. has been used to change behaviour successfully.D. deals better with emotional aspects of behaviour.附:【答案详解】PART 3 CLOZE31-40 DACBD CBACB41-50 DCADB BCDBBPART 4 GRAMMAR & VOCABULARY51.

2013年专四答案

这是完型的原文自己找空吧Everyone knows that taxation is necessary in a mode rn state . Without it, it would be impossible to pay the soldiers and policemen who protect us; nor the workers in government offices who look after our health, our f ood supplies and our water, and who do all the other things that we cannot do for ourselves; nor also the persons who govern the country for us. By means of taxat ion, we pay for things that we need just as much as we need somewhere to live and something to eat.Though everyone knows that taxation is necessary, different people have different i deas about how taxation should be arrange d. Should each person have to pay a certain amount of money to the government each year? Or should there be a tax on things that people buy and sell? If the first kind of taxation is used, should eve ryone pay the same tax, whether he is rich or poor? If the second kind of tax is u sed, should everything be taxed equally?In most countries, a direct tax on persons, called an income tax , is used. It is arr ange d in such a wa y that the poor people pay nothing, and the percentage of tax grows greater as the taxpayer 's income grows.Countries with direct taxation nearly always have indirect taxation too. Many things imported into the country are taxed . Of course, it is the people who buy these im ported things who really have to pay the duties , in the form of higher prices. In s ome countries, there is also a tax on things produced in the country itself. If the m ost necessary things are taxed , a lot of money is collected,but the poor people s uffer the most. If unnecessary things like jewels and fur coats are taxed , less mo ney is collected, but the tax is fair er because the rich pay it.Probably this kind of indirect taxation, together with a direct tax on incomes which is low for the poor and high for the rich, is the best arrangement .单选复制的某老师微博66. ______ to school life was less difficult than the pupil had expected.A.

Cuando regresó al palacio ya había caído la noche.Muy cansado se sentó a la mesa y con gran sorpresa vio que nadie le atendía. Mandóal mayordomo para que fuera a investigar qué pasaba. Al poco tiempo éste regresó y le dijo con cierto nerviosismo que en el palacio no había nada que comer. Don Enrique pensó que se trataba de una absurda broma e insistió en que ya era la hora de la cena. Pero el mayordomo insistió en que la cocina estaba vacía.Comprendió entonces el rey que se le estaba diciendo la verdad y que no había ni un solo pedazo de pan. Entonces pensó que si su castillo estaba vacío cómo sería entonces la vida de los nobles.Preguntó tan insistentemente a su mayordomo que éste le confesó muy secretamente que los nobles del reino eran como ratones y habían robado los recursos del país para prevecho propio.Asombrado el joven Enrique, preguntócomópodía obtener puebas de semejante acusación, y el criado le respondió que esa misma noche uno de los nobles daba un gran banquete en su castillo, al que estaban invitados todos los nobles de la corte.El rey quedóasombrado de lo que oía, y después de meditar un rato confióa su criado el deseo de asistir a aquel banquete disfrazado para ver con sus propios ojos lo que ocurría. Al cabo de una hora se presentó ante las murallas del castillo donde tendría lugar la fiesta. Todo era lujo y alegría. El rey que iba vestido de pobre cantante no encontróobstáculo para entrar, porque los cantantes eran muy apreciados en la época. Durante el banquete cada uno de los nobles comenzóa contar con mucha emoción cómo habían aumentado sus riquezas gracias al joven e inexperto rey.Cuando terminóla fiesta, el rey salióy se dirigióal palacio pensando enfadado cómo vengarse de los malos administradoresde su reino.Decidiódías después celebrar un banquete e invitar a todos cortesanos. A la hora señalada de la comida ellos acudieron al palacio y fueron introducidos en el salón real. Pero su asombro fue grande cuando vieron que en vez de deliciosos platos en la mesa sólo había comida sencilla y un jarro de agua para cada uno. Después de la humilde comida, el rey les hizo pasar a una sala donde las ventanas estaban tapadas con cortinas negras. Al ver esto los nobles comenzaron a sentir temor. El rey, con enérgica voz, los amenazó con imponerles a cada uno un castigo severo.Los temerosos nobles se arrojaron a los pies del rey llorando y pidieron clemencia.El rey perdonóla vida a cambio de que devolvieran todo lo robado y le juraran eterna fidelidad, porque no quería empezar su reinado violentamente. De esta forma el rey se ganó el respeto de los nobles, que ya dejaron de verle como a un joven inexperto.

Listen carefully and then answer the questions that follow. Mark the best answer to each question on Answer Sheet Two. SECTION A CONVERSATIONSIn this section you will hear several conversations. Listen to the conversations carefully and then answer the questions that follow. Questions 1 to 3 are based on the following conversation. At the end of the conversation, you will be given 15 seconds to answer the questions.Now, listen to the conversation.M: Hello Helen! Merry Christmas!W: Merry Christmas, Rob!You always get so excited on Christmas day.M: Come in, come in!W: Thank you. Wow!M: So, what do you think?W: That's amazing...so many decorations and what a beautiful Christmas tree! You must have spent ages doing this! It's beautiful!M: I like to do Christmas with all the trimmings!W: All the trimmings? I don't understand.M: All the trimmings---it means all the extra things that traditionally come with something to make it more special.W: I see. Like all these decorations?M: Yes. In my family, we have always had Christmas with all the trimmings, so we have a Christmas tree, decorations, gifts, Christmas songs, silly Christmas games and, most importantly, Christmas lunch. Come this way!W: A turkey for lunch!M: Now that is a roast turkey with all the trimmings! Not only is it a turkey, but we're eating it with all the things you traditionally eat with Christmas roast turkey: cranberry sauce, roast potatoes, gravy, stuffing, carrots.W: I think I understand what "all the trimmings" means now.M: It's an expression usually used with food, especially at Christmas and for the big roast dinners that we like to eat. I adore Sunday lunch with all the trimmings: roast meat, along with lots of vegetables and sauces and other traditional accompaniments.W: Mmmmm...M: Anyway, enough talk! Let's eat!W: Delicious. Thank you for inviting me.M: Well cheers to that and Merry Christmas--- with all the trimmings!W: Merry Christmas!Questions 4 to 7 are based on the following conversation. At the end of the conversation, you will be given 20 seconds to answer the questions. Now, listen to the conversation.M: Hello, International Students Club. Can I help you?W: Oh, hello. I saw your advertisement in the students union today and I thought I'd phone to find out a big more.M: Yes, certainly. Well, we're a sort of social and cultural activity club for people from different countries. It's quite a new club. We have about 80 members at the moment, but we're growing all the time.W: Right, that sounds interesting. I'm Australian actually, and I came here about a month ago. So I'm looking for ways to meet some new people. Um... what kind of activities do you organize? M: Well, we have a range: cultural, sports, social and language activities.W: Could you tell me something about the language activities?M: Yes. Everyday except Thursday we have a language evening, where people can come and practice their languages. You know, over a drink or a bite to eat. We have different languages on different evenings. Monday, Spanish; Tuesday, Italian; Wednesday, German; and Friday, French. On Thursday we usually arrange a meal in a restaurant for anyone who wants to come.W: Well, that sounds great. I really need to practice my French and German.M: OK. Well, if you can just give me your name and address, I'll send you the form and some more details.W: Thank you. That's great. My name is…Questions 8 to 10 are based on the following conversation. At the end of the conversation, you will be given 15 seconds to answer the questions. Now, listen to the conversation.M: So, you've been in Graduate Recruitment for five years?W: Yes.M: OK. Can I ask you a few questions about your work in Graduate Recruitment?W: Sure.M: What do you find difficult about the job?W: One problem is I don't have a background in IT. And sometimes I get asked difficult technical questions during interviews which I just can't answer. That can be a bit embarrassing.M: So how do you do with it?W: I find honesty is the best policy. I just tell them it's not my area and promise to contact one of our people from that field and email them back.M: And they're happy with that?W: Yes, it usually works.M: OK. I see you have a lot of job fair experiences. How useful do you think they are?W: Yes. Attending job fairs at universities is an important part of my job. I think they are really useful for making contact with Careers Development staff and prospective candidates. It can be pretty tiring though. And it means you’re out of the office a lot in the autumn and the spring. So we try to share the work between the three of us.M: That's fine. Now I'd like to know whether you've ever worked independently.SECTION B PASSAGESIn this section, you will hear several passages. Listen to the passages carefully and then answer the questions that follow. Questions 11 to 13 are based on the following passage. At the end of the passage, you will be given 15 seconds to answer the questions. Now, listen to the passage.Now the weather forecast. It's a mixed picture over the next few days. Today, very wet and windy in Northern Europe. You can see from the satellite picture that the highest temperatures, as they so often are, are in the southern parts of Europe, where it's also quite dry, particularly over the eastern parts of the Mediterranean. The forecast suggests that it's going to be quite cold over northwestern parts of Europe for the rest of the day, even some snow on the Scandinavian Mountains. So that's today's weather, with showery conditions in many parts of Northern Europe but the best of the sunshine in the south and throughout the Mediterranean. And pretty good but cool in the eastern parts of Europe, too. Now let's look at tomorrow's weather chart. Very much the same in the south except that the rain is starting to push down into the northern parts of the Mediterranean there. Elsewhere, staying fine in Eastern Europe and fine in central and eastern parts of the Mediterranean as well. But still wet and windy in many northwestern parts of Europe, including southern parts of Scandinavian, and a bit cool too.Questions 14 to 17 are based on the following passage. At the end of the passage, you will be given 20 seconds to answer the questions. Now, listen to the passage.Once upon a time societies were organised around religion, farming, trade or industry. In many parts of the world today this is still true, but something else is becoming more important--- the exchange of information, and the technology that we use to do this. Twenty-four hour news,e-commerce, mobile phones, Global Positioning Systems... all these are making the world smaller and faster. The growth in telecommunications is giving more and more people access to the science that will help their country to develop or to acquire the medical knowledge that can fight disease. But how can everybody in the world share the recent technological advances? Millions of people cannot read these words because they don't have access to a computer. They don't understand English either. They don't even have a telephone. They are more worried about how far they will have to walk today to get clean water or if they can feed themselves and their families. For most people on this planet, information is not a priority. The United Nations is now trying to make the information society a reality for more of the developing world. Ten years from now, the plan is that everybody in the world will have a radio or television and that 50% of the world's population will have access to the internet from schools and universities, health centres and hospitals, libraries and museums. This will improve medical care and education, science and agriculture, business opportunities and employment.Questions 18 to 20 are based on the following passage. At the end of the passage, you will be given 15 seconds to answer the questions. Now, listen to the passage.People worldwide celebrate New Year in different ways. In Latin America, people express their hopes through the color of their underwear. If you wore yellow, that supposedly enhances your chances for abundance and earning more money. If it was red, then you'll more likely find love in the New Year. And if you were wearing white underpants, preferably new and clean, then peace will be your top priority for the coming year. In the Philippines, people eat round fruits to bring good fortune while they are noisily banging together pots and pans. However, some New Year's traditions have nothing to do with luck. In Denmark, people throw their old dishes at the doors of their friends' homes each New Year's Eve. Thus, a front doorstep covered with broken plates suggests that the person inside has a lot of friends. Still, for all those who take part in grand New Year's events, there are many more who make their own traditions. It may be a small gathering of family and friends, watching New York's Times Square ball drop on TV, or loudly running through the neighborhood.Some may simply go to sleep early, so they can be energized for an early New Year's Day hike--- perhaps while wearing underwear that suits their mood, and wishes, for the New Year.SECTION C NEWS BROADCASTIn this section, you will hear several news items. Listen to them carefully and then answer the questions that follow. Questions 21 and 22 are based on the following news. At the end of the news item, you will be given 10 seconds to answer the questions. Now, listen to the news.Digital textbooks are transforming the way many students learn. All the Fairfax County Public Schools have begun using online course material for their middle- and high-school students. This school year, the schools shifted from hard cover to electronic textbooks for social studies in its middle and high schools. The switch came after digital books were used in 15 schools last year. "Our students come to us technologically ready to use resources from a variety of different places," says Assistant Superintendent Peter Noonan. "The world is changing consistently. The online textbooks can change right along with the events that are happening." There's a significantfinancial benefit as well. "Usually it is between $50 and $70 to buy a textbook for each student," Noonan says, "which adds up to roughly $8 million for all of our students. We actually have purchased all of the online textbooks for our students for just under $6 million."Questions 23 and 24 are based on the following news. At the end of the news item, you will be given 10 seconds to answer the questions. Now, listen to the news.A man was arrested on suspicion of attempting to carry explosives through a security checkpoint at an airport, authorities said. Trey Scott Atwater was taken into custody Saturday morning after Transportation Security Administration agents spotted what they described as a suspicious item. The item was in his carry-on during X-ray screening at a security checkpoint at the airport, an FBI spokesman said in a statement. Neither the FBI nor the TSA identified the explosives, though an airport spokeswoman said the items were "wrapped in military grade wrapping" and are in the possession of the police. At no time was there any danger to the people at the airport. The airport terminal was temporarily evacuated while authorities "conducted a sweep, and deemed all clear," said a city spokeswoman. Atwater has been arrested on a federal count of attempting to get on an aircraft with an explosive.Questions 25 and 26 are based on the following news. At the end of the news item, you will be given 10 seconds to answer the questions. Now, listen to the news.In Dakar, psychiatric patients attend regular art therapy classes to help treat mental disorders. The therapy can be a useful technique to complement traditional forms of psychotherapy. Psychiatrists in the Senegalese capital's main hospital see it as an essential part of the healing process. Art as psychotherapy is still relatively new in Senegal. Dr. Tabara Sylla, the hospital's chief psychiatrist, uses art therapy, medication and classical forms of psychotherapy in her practice, treating everything from chronic depression to alcohol abuse and schizophrenia. At first the project started as a way to keep patients busy in the afternoon, rather than have them sitting around smoking. It soon became clear that art was creating a communication bridge between patient and doctor. More and more now, she says, art workshops have become essential therapy --- so much that she cannot imagine this psychiatric unit without them.Questions 27 and 28 are based on the following news. At the end of the news item, you will be given 10 seconds to answer the questions. Now, listen to the news.The Federal Aviation Administration, or FAA, the government agency that regulates civil aviation in the United States, announced new rules this month to combat pilot fatigue. The new guidelines, which will go into effect in two years, call for reducing the number of pilots' on-duty hours and giving them a 10-hour rest period between shifts, so they can get at least 8 hours of uninterrupted sleep. The new rules apply to only pilots of passenger airlines. FAA determined that including pilots who fly cargo planes --- a large segment of the aviation industry --- would add too much to the cost of implementing the changes. But the Independent Pilots Association has filed a lawsuit asking the government to set one level of safety for all pilots.Question 29 and 30 are based on the following news. At the end of the news item, you will be given 10 seconds to answer the questions. Now, listen to the news.The world will need to double food production within the next three decades in order to feed a rapidly growing and increasingly affluent population, which is projected to grow from 7 billion today to 9 billion. A United Nations report says reaching that goal will require major increases in intensive, high-efficiency livestock operations for both meat and dairy production. The report also says that intensive livestock operations can pose serious ecological risks. And that's why environmental critics are calling instead for reductions in global livestock production, and urging people to consume less, not more, meat in their diets. Feeding today's population is a challenge for an already-stressed environment. The challenge is how to ensure food without increasing animal numbers and having an impact on fragile lands and our resource bases. More than half of the agricultural land in the world is used to raise and feed livestock. Those farm animals are also responsible for 18 percent of the greenhouse gases released into the atmosphere every year. Experts agree that the next few decades will present a puzzle, how to feed nine billion people without wrecking the planet in the process.This is the end of listening comprehension。

西班牙语专业四级考试阅读理解题型分析与对策

西班牙语专业四级考试阅读理解题型分析与对策摘要:高校外语专业教学指导委员会西班牙语组于1999年起举办全国高校西班牙语专业基础阶段水平测试,即专业四级考试,评估课程教学质量和测试学生学习效果。
在100分的笔试测试中,阅读理解部分占三分之一的分值,分数比重大,结合学生的测试结果分析,可以看出阅读理解是考试的难点之一,得分较低。
本文针对学生的考试难点,对西班牙语专业四级考试中的阅读理解部分要求及题型进行分析,继而提出相应的解题思路及教学对策。
关键词:西班牙语专业四级考试阅读理解解题技巧1.引言在全国高校西班牙语专业基础阶段水平测试,即专业四级考试中,试卷总分为150分,分为笔试和口语听力两大部分。
其中笔试部分总分为100分,包含语法、词汇、阅读理解与表达类题型三大部分,每部分各占约三分之一的分数。
阅读理解部分旨在考查学生通过阅读获取信息、分析语句成分,以及理清句与句之间逻辑关系的能力。
在笔试测试中,命题组会选择一篇600~800字的西班牙语文章,选择部分题型对其进行命题并确定各项分值。
文章体裁包含记叙文、说明文、议论文等,而文章的题材则涵盖社会、科技、文化、经济、人物传记等方面。
这要求学生在阅读时,能根据不同的体裁和题材,适时运用不同的阅读策略,抓住文章主要逻辑关系,理清文章基本结构,从而更好地理解全文。
在题型设置方面,多以主观题为主,大致可分为指出主语或所指、根据释义写出单词、根据文章内容选出正确答案、西语释义、西译汉、回答问题及撰写短文七大题型。
本文对各题型进行分析,针对学生的难点详细阐释,进而提出相应的解题技巧,帮助学生在阅读理解部分提高得分率。
2.题型分析与解题技巧2.1指出主语或所指本题型主要考查学生分析语句逻辑关系的能力,句中个别词汇用法及搭配方式考查了学生精读课所学的基础知识,要求学生能够根据上下文判断动词的主语,以及形容词、代词、指代性副词的所指。
由于西语句段各个成分之间具有严密的照应关系和逻辑关系,因此在西语中,代词的使用和主语省略现象非常普遍。

(10 puntos)Para las personas que viven en el siglo XXI, es de mucha importancia hablar más de una lengua. En el caso de los que viven en los Estados Unidos, tal vez la segunda lengua deba ser el español. Este idioma es la lengua nacional de una veintena de países. Además, su uso en los Estados Unidos está aumentando.El español tuvo su origen en el latín, lengua que se extendió por casi toda Europa, sobre todo en Europa Occidental. Posteriormente, los conquistadores y colonizadores españoles que llegaron a América llevaron allí su lengua. Esto dio como resultado la sustitución de gran parte de las lenguas indígenas por el español. Sin embargo, aquellas lenguas, a su vez, co ntribuyeron al enriquecimiento del español con algunas palabras nuevas, como por ejemplo: patata, maíz, chocolate, tomate, etc. (129 palabras)听写到此结束。
