听力原文：At lunch time, and sometimes at other times in the day, people in the UK often eat a ‘sandwich’. This consists of two pieces of bread and a filling. However, there are literally hundreds of different types of sandwiches, and each variation has its own flavour. Some of the most popular and famous sandwiches in the UK are: BLT, Ploughman’s, Tuna, and Egg sandwiches. Sandwiches of all varieties are extremely popular, and quick and easy to eat. In fact, British people eat 2.8 billion each year—not bad for a population of only 60 million people!In 1762 the first written record of the word ‘sandwich’appeared in the diary of the English author Edward Gibbons, who remembered seeing the wealthiest elite in the country eating ‘a bit of cold meat’between pieces of bread. Gibbons did not think this was very appropriate behaviour for such men! The snack was named after the Fourth Earl of Sandwich. Sandwich was a frequent gambler, and was so addicted to gambling that he would often refuse to stop even to eat meals. To avoid having to stop gambling, the Earl of Sandwich asked the cooks at his gambling club to prepare him a meal
consisting of beef between two slices of bread, so that he always had one hand free to play cards and gamble, and his hands wouldn’t become dirty from the meat. When other men saw what he was eating, they began to order ‘the same as Sandwich!’, and so the sandwich was born —beginning as a snack for some of the wealthiest men in England! It quickly became popular and widespread as a quick and easy food to eat.Questions 26 to 28 are based on the passage you have just heard.26. What is the passage mainly about?27. How many sandwiches do British people eat each year?28. What can we learn about the sandwich?

听力原文：Yale University announced on Monday that it was planning to create a liberal arts college in Singapore that would be financed entirely by the government there and could, in time, establish a new model for higher education in Asia. While Yale has many international programs, it has not put its name on an overseas project the way it envisions doing at the National University of Singapore. The new institution, to be called Yale-N.U.S. College, would seek to import Yale’s signature residential college concept —in which students live, study and take classes in an intimate setting —as well as a curriculum that encourages critical thinking and inquiry in the humanities and sciences. But the diplomas would lack the cachet of a full Yale degree; they would be issued by the National University of Singapore. By contrast, New York University’s ambitious new college in Abu Dhabi, also underwritten by the government there, awards N.Y.U. diplomas. Still, Yale would be largely responsible for hiring 100 professors to teach about 1,000 students at the college, which is scheduled to open in 2013. If Yale decides to move forward with a full partnership with the Singapore University, it would control half of the seats on the college’s governing board and would jointly plan the curriculum and admissions strategy. The college is envisioned as a highly elite school within an already prestigious, yet huge and career-focused university. Yale officials said it would draw top students from across Asia, where liberal arts programs are rare, and attract even more qualified Asian applicants to the New Haven campus of Yale by raising the university’s profile. Questions 29 to 31 are based on the passage you have just heard.29. Who will finance Yale-N.U.S. College according to the passage?30. Which of the following statements is true?31. When is Yale-N.U.S. College scheduled to open?

A．The U.S. government.
B．Yale University.
C．The Singapore government.
D．The National University of Singapore.
正确答案：C

听力原文：Each Facebook user has on average 130 friends and shares 70 bits of personal information —including home movies and family photos —every month. With 500 million users detailing their moods and passions online, Facebook is more than a social networking site. It’s a global phenomenon that’s shaping the way people communicate. Facebook has half a billion users. That’s huge for a planet of less than 7 billion people. What grew as the pet project of Mark Zuckerberg, when he was a student at Harvard, has exploded —gaining eight new users ever second for the past 15 months. Facebook has changed the way many people communicate —letting its millions of users share personal thoughts and images with their network of friends. Zuckerberg, Facebook’s CEO, said, “People have really gotten connected, not only sharing more information and different kinds but being more open and with more people, and that social norm is just something that’s changed over time. ”And people share a lot. Whole lives play out on Facebook. Births, graduations, marriage, even divorce. Some experts say that sharing too much information can have downsides —including affecting the way prospective employers may evaluate a job candidate. Yet, people share personal information on the site 70 times per month on average. Information can easily go viral with the click of a mouse, says Nelson. “Now we have this technology for this one community to talk to another community, and all these different conversations happen at the same time. Almost effortlessly”, he said. He says the future of social media is mobile. More phones will be able to support Facebook giving even more people access to their online communities from the palm of their hand. Questions 32 to 35 are based on the passage you have just heard.32. What is Facebook?33. How many Facebook users are there all over the world?34.
