And you'll let me pay to have your jacket cleaned, won't you?--That's all right. It could happen to anyone.

He is been calling at people's homes, saying he is check that all their appliances are safe. Then he gets around them to make him a cup of tea, and while they out of the room, he steals their money, handbag, whatever, and makes offwith it.M: But you know Jean, it's partly their own fault. They should never let anyone like that in unless you are expecting them.W: It's all very well to say that, but someone comes to the door and says electricity or gas. And you automaticallythink they are ok. Especially they flashed a card to you.M: does this man have an ID then?W: Yes, that’s just it. It seems he used to work for the electricity board at one time. According to the paper, the police are warning people especially pensioners. Not to admit anyone unless theyhave an appointment. It's a bit sad. One old lady told them, she's just been to the post office to draw her pension, when he called, she said he must followed her home. He stole the whole lot. M: but, what does he look like. Surely they must have a description.W: oh, yes. They have. Let’s see, in his 30s, tall, bushy dark hair, slight northern accent. Sounds a bit like you actually.Questions 19 to 22 are based on the conversation you have just heard19. What does the woman want the man to read in the newspaper?20. How did the man mentioned in the newspaper try to win further trust from the victims?21. What is the warning from the police?22. what does the woman speaker tell us about the old lady?Conversation twoM: Miss Jones, could you tell me more about your first job with hotel marketing concepts.W: yes, certainly.

Have you ever been to Japan?W: Yes, I have. I spent a month in Japan in 2023. I met all the key people in the tourist industry,the big tour operators, and the tourist organizations. As I speak Japanese, I had a very big advantage.M: Yes, of course. Have you had any contact with Japan, in your present job?W: yes, I’ve had a lot. Cruises have become very popular with the Japanese both for holidays and for business conferences. In fact, the market for all types of luxury holidays for the Japanese has increased a lot recently.M: really? I’m interested to hear more about that. But first tell me have ever traveled on a l uxury train, the Orienting Expressfor example.W: no I haven’t. But I’ve traveled on the Gracial express to Switzerland, and I traveled across China by train about 8 years ago. I love train travel. That’s why I am very interested in this job. Questions 23 to 25 five are based on the conversation you’ve just heard.23. What did the woman do in her first job?24. What gave the woman an advantage during her business trip in Japan?25. Why is the woman applying for the new job?Section BPassage OneTime! I think a lot about time. And not just because it’s the name of the news organizationI work for. Like most working people, I find time or the lack of it ,a never ending frustrationand an unwinnable battle. My everyday is a race against the clock that I never, ever seem to win. This ishardly a lonesome complaint. According to the families and work institutes national study of the changing workforce, fifty-five percent of employees say they don’t have enough time for themselves, sixty-three percent don’t have enough time for their spousesor partners, and sixty-seven percent don’t have enough time for their children. It’s also not a new complaint. I bet our ancestorsreturned home from hunting wild animals and gathering nuts and complained about how little time they had to pay in battle scenes on their cave wars. The difference is that the boss of animal-hunting and the head of nut-gathering probably told them to shut up or no survivalfor you. Today’s workers are still demanding control over their time. The difference is today’s bosses are listening. I’ve been reading a report issued today called ‘When Work Works’ produced jointly by three organizations. They set out to find and award the employers who employ the most creative and most effective ways to give their workers flexibility. I found this report worth reading and suggest every boss should read it for ideas.Questions 26~28 are based on the passage you’ve just heard.26. What is the speaker complaining about?27. What does the speaker say about our ancestors?28. Why does the speaker suggest all bosses read the report by the three organizations?Passage Two"Loving a child is a circular business. The more you give, the more you get, the more you want to give." Penelope Leach once said. What she said proves to be true of my blooded family. I was born in 1931. As the youngest of six children, I learned to sharemy parents' love. Raising sixchildren during the difficult times of the Great Depression took its toll on my parents' relationship and resulted in their divorcewhen I was 18 years old. Daddy never had very close relationships with his children and drifted even farther away from us after the divorce. Several years later a wonderful woman came into his life, and they were married. She had two sons, one of them still at home. Under her influence, we became a “blended family” and a good relationship developed between the two families. She alwaystreated us as if we were her own children.It was because of our other mother -- Daddy's second wife -- that he became closer to his own children. They shared over twenty-five years together before our father passed away. At the time of his death, the question came up of my mother -- Daddy's first wife -- attending his funeral.I will never forget the unconditionallove shown by my stepmother when I asked her if she would object to mother attending Daddy's funeral. Without giving it a second thought, she immediately replied.“Of course not, Honey-she's the mother of my children.”Questions 29~31 are based on the passag e you’ve just heard.29. According to the speaker, what contributed to her parents' divorce?30. What brought the father closer to her own children?31. What message does the speaker want to convey in this talk?Passage ThreeIn February last year, my wife lost her job. Just as suddenly, the owner of the greenhouse where I worked as manager died of heart attack. His family announced that they were going to close thebusiness because no one in the family wanted to run it. Things looked pretty gloomy. My wife and I read the WANT ads each day.Then one morning, as I was hanging out the “going out of business” sign at the greenhouse, the door opened, and in walked a customer. She was an office manager whose company had just moved into the new office park on the edge of town. She was looking for pots and plants to place in the receptionareas in the offices. “I don’t know anything about plants,” she said, “I’m sure in a few weeks they’ll all be dead.”While I was helping her select her purchases, my mind was raising. Perhaps as many as a dozen firms have recently opened offices in the new office park, and there were several hundred more acreswith construction underway. That afternoon, I drove out to the office park. By 6 o’clock that evening, I had signed contracts with seven companies to rent plants from me and pay me a fee to maintainthem. Within a week, I had worked out an agreement to lease the greenhouse from the owner’s family. Business is now increasing rapidly, and one day, we hope to be the proud owners of the greenhouse.Questions 32~35 are based on the passage you’ve just heard.32. What do we learn about the greenhouse?33. What was the speaker doing when the customer walked in on morning?34. What did the speaker think of when serving the office manager?35. What was the speaker’s hope for the future?Section CWe are now witnessing the emergence of the advance economy based on information and knowledge: physical labor, raw materials and capital are no longer the key ingredientsin the creational wealt h. Now the vital raw material in our economy is knowledge. Tomorrow’s wealth depends on the development and exchange of knowledge. And individuals entering the workforce offer the knowledge not their muscles. Knowledge workers get paid for their education and their ability to learn. Knowledge workers engagein mind work,they deal with symbols,words,figures and data. What does all this mean for you? As a future knowledge worker,you can expect to be generating,processing as well as exchaning information. Currently, three out of four jobs involve mind work,and that number will increase sharply in the future. Management and employees alike will be making decisions in such areas as product development, quality control and customer satisfaction. In the new world of work, you can look forward to being in constant training to acquire new skills that will help you keep up with improve technologies and procedures.You can also expect to be taking greater control of your career. Gone out of the nine-to-five jobs,lifelong securtiy, predictable promotions and even the conventionalwork place as you are familiar with. Don't expect the companies will provide you with a clearly defined work path. And don't wait for someone to empoweryou, you have to empower yourself.。

Like, one time, they played this super fast dialogue between two people talking about their travel plans, and I was like, "Whoa, slow down! I can't catch all that!"But, I've been practicing a lot lately to get better at listening. I've been listening to English songs and watching English movies with subtitles to get used to the language. I even joined a English conversation salon to chat with native speakers and improve my listening skills.I also asked my English teacher for some tips on how to ace the listening part of the CET-4 test. She said it's important to stay focused and not get distracted by background noise. She also told me to try and predict the answer before hearing the choices to save time.I'm really hoping all this practice pays off and I can rock the listening part on the CET-4 test. Wish me luck, guys! And remember, practice makes perfect! Let's all do our best on the big test! Woohoo!!篇10Hey guys, I'm super excited to tell you about the listening section of the College English Test (CET) in December 2023! It was super tough this time, but I think I did okay. Let me tell you all about it!Alright, so the first part was all about conversations. There was one with a student and a professor talking about a research paper, and they were discussing the student's ideas. It was kind of tricky because they mentioned a lot of different points. But I tried my best to remember everything!Next up, we had some monologues. There was one about a famous artist and their life story. I couldn't quite catch the nameof the artist, but I think they were from France. Then there was another monologue about a new technology for cleaning clothes. It sounded pretty cool, but I don't think I understood all the details.After that, we had some short talks. One was about a new student club starting up on campus, and they were looking for members. I thought it sounded interesting, but I don't know if I would join. Then there was another talk about volunteering at a local animal shelter. It made me want to help out and give back to the community!Overall, the listening section was a bit challenging, but I tried my best and I think I did alright. I hope I can pass the exam and improve my English skills! Good luck to everyone else who took the test too! Let's all keep working hard and improving together!。

英语四级听力材料1. Social MediaIn today's fast-paced society, social media has become an integral part of our daily lives. With the development of technology, people can now easily connect with each other through platforms such as Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram.One of the advantages of social media is that it allows us to keep in touch with friends and family who are far away. We can share photos, videos, and updates on our lives, and stay connected even if we are thousands of miles apart.Another advantage of social media is that it provides a platform for us to express our thoughts and opinions. We can post our thoughts on current events, share our views on different topics, and engage in discussions with others. Social media has become a powerful tool that gives a voice to everyone, no matter their background or status.However, social media also has its disadvantages. One of the main drawbacks is that it can be addictive. Many people spend hours on social media, scrolling through their news feeds and checking notifications. This addiction to social media can have negative effects on our mental health and productivity.Moreover, social media can also be a breeding ground for cyberbullying and harassment. Anyone can hide behind a screen and say hurtful things to others, leading to emotional distress and even suicide in extreme cases. It is important for social mediaplatforms to have measures in place to protect users from such harmful activities.In conclusion, social media has both advantages and disadvantages. While it allows us to connect with others and express ourselves, it can also be addictive and a source of negativity. It is up to us to use social media responsibly and ensure that it enhances our lives rather than hinders them.2. Global WarmingGlobal warming is a phenomenon that has attracted much attention in recent years. It refers to the increase in the Earth's average temperature due to the buildup of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere.One of the main causes of global warming is the burning of fossil fuels such as coal, oil, and natural gas. When these fuels are burned, they release carbon dioxide and other greenhouse gases into the atmosphere, trapping heat and causing the Earth's temperature to rise.The consequences of global warming are far-reaching and severe. Rising temperatures lead to the melting of glaciers and ice caps, causing sea levels to rise. This poses a threat to coastal communities and low-lying areas, leading to flooding and the loss of habitat for many species.Global warming also disrupts ecosystems and threatens biodiversity. Changes in temperature and precipitation patterns canlead to the extinction of certain species and the spread of invasive species. This can have a ripple effect on the food chain and ultimately impact human survival.In addition, global warming can result in extreme weather events such as heatwaves, hurricanes, and droughts. These events can cause loss of life and widespread damage to infrastructure and crops, leading to economic losses and social unrest.To combat global warming, it is important for countries to reduce their greenhouse gas emissions. This can be achieved through the use of renewable energy sources such as solar and wind power, as well as improving energy efficiency in industries and households. In conclusion, global warming is a serious issue that requires immediate action. It not only threatens the environment and biodiversity, but also has significant social and economic implications. It is crucial for individuals, governments, and businesses to work together to mitigate the effects of global warming and ensure a sustainable future for generations to come.。

The World Health Organization, or WHO, estimates that more than 300,000 women die every year during pregnancy or childbirth. Each year, about 2.6 million babies are stillborn and another 2.7 million babies die during the first 28 days of life, it said.世界卫生组织估计每年有超过30万女性在妊娠或分娩期间死亡。

该组织称每年大约有260万婴儿死产，还有270万婴儿在出生28天内死亡。

Most of the deaths are taking place in South Asia and in Africa, south of the Sahara Desert. Many of the deaths could have been avoided with quality health care, WHO officials said.这些死亡案例大部分发生在南亚和撒哈拉以南非洲。

世界卫生组织__表示，其中多数死亡原本可以通过优质医疗服务来避免。

Another problem is that nearly all babies who are stillborn and half of all newborn deaths are never documented. Those deaths are not reportedto or investigated by government health agencies.另一个问题是，几乎所有死产婴儿以及半数的新生儿死亡从来没有登记。

Children were responsible for the vast majority of cases. 95% of objects removed from noses, and 85% from ears. Every year, an average of 1,218 nose，and 2,479 ear removals took place between 2010 and 2016. ( 17 ) According to England's hospital episodes statistics, children aged 1 to 4 were the most likely to need help from doctors for a foreign object in their nose. 5 to 9 -year-olds come to the hospital with something in their ears the most.Jewelry items accounted for up to 40% of cases in both the ears and noses of children. Paper and plastic toys for the items removed next most from noses. Cotton buds, and pencils were also found in years.( 18 ) According to the study, the occurrence of foreign objects in children is generally attributed to curiosity. Children have an impulse to explore their noses and ears. This results in the accidental entry of foreign objects. Any ear, nose and throat surgeon has many weird stories about wonderful objects found in the noses and ears of children and adults. Batteries can pose a particular danger. In all cases, prevention is better than cure. This is why many toys contain warnings about small parts. Recognizing problems early and seeking medical attention is important.Question16 What does England spend an annual￡3 million on?A ) Providing routine care for small childrenB ) Paying hospital bills for emergency cases.C ) Doing research on ear, nose and throat diseases.D ) Removing objects from patients’ noses and ears.Question17 What do we learn from England's hospital episodes statistics?A ) Many children like to smell things they find or play with.B ) Many children like to put foreign objects in their mouth.C ) Five-to nine-year-olds are the most likely to put things in their ears.D ) Children aged one to four are often more curious than older children.Question18 What is generally believed to account for children putting things in their ears or noses?A ) They tend to act out of impulse.B ) They want to attract attentions.C ) They are unaware of the potential risks.D ) They are curious about these body parts.Passage 2( 21 ) Good morning. Today, I would like to talk to you about my charity Re-bicycle.But before that, let me introduce someone. This is Layla Rahimi. She was so scared when she first moved to new Zealand. Does she struggled to leave the house? I would spend days working up the courage to walk to the supermarket for basic supplies. ( 19 ) After a few months of being quite down and unhappy, she was invited to join a local bike club. At this time, Re-bicycle got involved and gave Layla a second-hand bicycle. Within weeks, her depression had begun to ease as she cycled. The bicycle totally changed her life, giving her hope and a true feeling of freedom. ( 20 ) To date, Re-bicycle has donated more than 200 bikes to those in need and is now expanding bike-riding lessons as a demand source. With a bike, new comers here can travel farther but for almost no cost. The 3 hours a day they used to spend walking to and from English language lessons has been reduced to just 1hour.( 21 ) Our bike riding lessons are so successful that we are urgently looking for more volunteers, learning to ride a bike is almost always more difficult for an adult. And this can take days and weeks rather than hours. So if any of you have some free time during the weekend, please come join us at Re-bicycle and make a difference in someone’s life.Question 19. What did Re-bicycle do to help Layla Rahimi?A ) It paid for her English lessons.B ) It gave her a used bicycle.C ) It delivered her daily necessities.D ) It provided her with physical therapy.Question 20.

The results are both interesting and humorous. The scientists first sent some mice and especially designed cage to the international space station.The cage allowed them to study the behavior of the mice remotely from earth, via video.As you’ll notice in the video, ( 23 ) the mice definitely seem uncomfortable at the beginning of the experiment.They move around clumsily, drifting within the small confines of the cage and do their best to figure out which way is up, but without success. However, it’s not long before the mice begin to catch on.They adapt remarkably well to their new environment, and even use the lack of gravity to their advantage as they push themselves around the cage. That’s when things really get wild. ( 24 ) The 11th day of the experiment shows the mice are not just dealing with the gravity change, but actually seem to be enjoying it. Several of the mice are observed running around the cage walls. The scientists wanted to see whether the mice would continue doing the same kinds of activities they were observed doing on earth.( 25 ) The study showed that the mice kept much of the routines intact, including cleaning themselves and eating when hungry.Question 22 : What do NASA scientists want to learn about?A ) How mice imitate human behavior in space.B ) How low gravity affects the human body.C ) How mice interact in a new environment.D ) How animals deal with lack of gravity.Question 23: What does the passage say about the mice at the beginning of the experiment?A ) They were not used to the low-gravity environment.B ) They found it difficult to figure out where they were.C )They found the space in the cage too small to stay in.D ) They were not sensitive to the changed environment.Question 24: What was observed about the mice on the 11th day of the experiment?A ) They tried everything possible to escape from the cage.B ) They continued to behave as they did in the beginning.C ) They already felt at home in the new environment.D ) They had found a lot more activities to engage in.Question 25: What did the scientists find about the mice from the experiment?A ) They repeated their activities every day.B ) They behaved as if they were on Earth.C ) They begin to eat less after some time.D ) They changed their routines in space.答案1-7 ACBABDC8-15 ACDADBCB16-25 DCDBABDDCB。

You need only say, "Do you have a business card?" or "May I have your business card?" When you want to present your own card, you can say, "Here's my card. Please feel free to call me if you have any suggestions." If you wish to offer your card to a long-timeassociate, you can say, "Did I ever give you my card?" or "I mean to give you my card." [26]It's not polite to directly refuse a request from someone for your business card. Instead, you can say, "Sorry, but I'm afraid I'm all out at the moment." or "I neglected to bring them with me." Giving someone your card, of course, does not obligate you to continue contact, nor does accepting someone else's card. [27]When you do receive a card, say "Thank you." and e某amine it briefly before putting it away. [28]You can use a business card that you received to refresh your memory about someone's name and title before your ne某t meeting. You can also record notes about the meeting on the back of the card, or place it in your card file.Questions 26 to 28 are based on the passage you have just heard.26. Which of the following is an impolite behavior according to the passage?正确答案：D解析：短文提到，“直接拒绝别人索要名片的要求是不礼貌的。
