Your store isn’t too easy to find.E: You can say that. They’ve moved us to the basement.S: Well, I made it anyway. Could I get some color copies of this flier?E: Sure, how many do you need?S: 500. It’s for a fundraiser I’m organizing, and I need enough copies for each faculty and staff member, also a few to put on bulletin boards.E: Really? What fundraiser?S: Oh, it’s to raise money for a new sandbox at the preschool on campus.E: Oh, do you work there? My wife and I looked into the preschool for our daughter, but we arrived on campus too late for her to enroll.I just started at the university this semester, so maybe we’ll get her in next year.S: No, not exactly. I’m majoring in early childhood education. For a research paper I’ve been spending time there observing the different ways they teach pre-reading skills. I was really surprised by all the learning tools and techniques that they use in the classroom and even on the playground.E: Yea? It’s interesting what they do with kids these days.S: Anyway, there’s another thing that surprised me. I had no idea how sparse their playground is—just a slide, some balls, and a couple of swings for about 45 children! The director told me she’d love to have a big sandbox too, which got me some thinking. I have to do 20 hours of community service to graduate, so I offered to organize a fundraiser to buy a sandbox, and the director really loved that idea. I figured that’ll take 20 hours, at least.E: So what’s your plan to raise the money?S: I got my advisor, Professor Campbell, to teach a parenting workshop there. He’s going to give tips on raising toddlers.E: Great idea. Toddlers can be a challenge. I know that from experience.S: Anyway, the workshop is just three weeks away, so I need to distribute the flyers as soon as possible. Could I get the color copies right now?E: Well, unfortunately our color copiers are undergoing routine maintenance right now, so it might take a day or two, but if you need them right away, you could use one of our black and white copiers. They’re all self-service.S: I guess that’ll be ok. Thanks!E: By the way, how much are you going to charge for that workshop?S: $50, but that registration fee also includes a copy of Professor Campbell’s new parenting book. He wrote this great book about toddlers that sells for $25.E: $50 seems a little high, but since you include the book too...S: Yea, the book has gotten some great reviews, too.E: Hmm... can I have one of your flyers after you make the copies?S: Sure! I’ll give you a few if you want to help me spread the word.1.Why does the student go to see the university employee?A.To get directions to the nearest copy centerB.To order photocopies of a documentC.To get permission to post a sign on a bulletin boardD.To solicit his help on a research project正确答案:B解析:目的主旨题。

In the United States, rent controls date back to at least World War II.In 1943 the federal government imposed rent controls to help solve the problem of housing shortages during wartime. The federal program ended after the war, but in some locations, including New York City, controls continued. Under New York's controls, a landlord generally cannot raise rents on apartments as long as the tenants continue to renew their leases. In places such as Santa Monica, California, rent controls are more recent. They were spurred by the inflation of the 1970's, which, combined with California's rapid population growth, pushed housing prices, as well as rents, to record levels. In 1979 Santa Monica's municipal government ordered landlords to roll back their rents to the levels charged in 1978. Future rents could only go up by two-thirds as much as any increase in the overall price level.In any housing market, rental prices perform three functions: (1) promoting the efficient maintenance of existing housing and stimulating the construction of new housing, (2) allocating existing scarce housing among competing claimants, and (3) rationing use of existing housing by potential renters.One result of rent control is a decrease in the construction of new rental units. Rent controls have artificially depressed the most important long-term determinant of profitability —rents. Consider some examples. In a recent year in Dallas, Texas, with a 16 percent rental vacancy rate but no rent control laws, 11,000 new housing units were built. In the same year, in San Francisco, California, only 2,000 units were built. The major difference? San Francisco has only a 1.6 percent vacancy rate but stringent rent control laws. In New York City, except for government-subsidized construction, the only rental units being built are luxury units, which are exempt from controls. In Santa Monica, California, new apartments are not being constructed. New office rental space and commercial developments are, however. They are exempt from rent controls.1. What does the passage mainly discuss?(A) The construction of apartments in the United States.(B) Causes and effects of rent control(C) The fluctuations of rental prices(D) The shortage of affordable housing in the United States.2. The word They in line 9 refers to(A) the tenants(B) their leases(C) places(D) rent controls.3.

In the mid-eighteenth century, painters had been willing to assume such artisan-related tasks as varnishing, gilding teaching, keeping shops, and painting wheel carriages, houses, and signs. The terminology by which artists were described at the time suggests their status: limner was usually applied to the anonymous portrait painter up to the 1760's; painter characterized anyone who could paint a flat surface. By the second half of the century, colonial artists who were trained in England or educated in the classics rejected the status of laborer and thought of themselves as artists. Some colonial urban portraitists, such as John Singleton Copley, Benjamin West, and Charles Wilson Peale, consorted with affluent patrons. Although subject to fluctuations in their economic status, all three enjoyed sufficient patronage to allow them to maintain an image of themselves as professional artists, an image indicated by their custom of signing their paintings. A few art collectors James Bowdoin III of Boston, William Byrd of Virginian, and the Aliens andHamiltons of Philadelphia introduced European art traditions to those colonists privileged to visit their galleries, especially aspiring artists, and established in their respective communities the idea of the value of art and the need for institutions devoted to its encouragement.Although the colonists tended to favor portraits, they also accepted landscapes, historical works, and political engravings as appropriate artistic subjects. With the coming of independence from the British Crown, a sufficient number of artists and their works were available to serve nationalistic purposes. The achievements of the colonial artists, particularly those of Copley, West, and Peale, lent credence to the boast that the new nation was capable of encouraging genius and that political liberty was congenial to the development of taste — a necessary step before art could assume an important role in the new republic.1. What does the passage mainly discuss?(A) European influence on colonial American painting(B) The importance of patronage to artist(C) The changing status of artists in the American colonies in the eighteenth century(D) Subjects preferred by artists in the American colonies in theeighteenth century.2. The word outbreak in line 5 is closest in meaning to(A) cause(B) beginning(C) position(D) explanation3. The word undergone in line 6 is closest in meaning to(A) led to(B) transformed(C) preferred(D) experienced4. According to the passage , before the American Revolution the main task of limners was to(A) paint wheel carriages(B) paint portraits(C) varnish furniture(D) paint flat surfaces5. I t can be inferred from the passage that artists who were trained in England(A) considered artists to be superior to painters(B) barely painted portraitists(C) were often very wealthy(D) imitated English painters6. The word consorted in line 14 is closest in meaning to(A) made decisions(B) studies(C) agreed(D) associated7. The word sufficient in line 16 is closest in meaning to(A) adequate(B) temporary(C) friendly(D) expensive8. According to the passage , artists such as Copley, West and Peal signed their paintings(A) increased the monetary value of the paintings(B) made it more difficult for other artists to copy the paintings(C) supported the artists' image of professionalism(D) distinguished colonial American artists from European artists9.

Psychologists who study optimization compare the actual decisions made by people to theoretical ideal decisions to see how similar they are. Proponents of the worksheet procedure believe that it will yield optimal, that is, the best decisions. Although there are several variations on the exact format that worksheets can take, they are all similar in their essential aspects. Worksheets require defining the problem in a clear and concise way and then listing all possible solutions to the problem. Next, the pertinent considerations that will be affected by each decision are listed, and the relative importance of each consideration or consequence is determined. Each consideration is assigned a numerical value to reflect its relative importance. A decision is mathematically calculated by adding these values together. The alternative with the highest number of points emerges as the best decision.Since most important problems are multifaceted, there are several alternatives to choose from, each with unique advantages and disadvantages. One of the benefits of a pencil and paper decision-making procedure is that it permits people to deal with more variables than their minds can generally comprehend and remember.On the average, people can keep about seven ideas in their minds at once. A worksheet can be especially useful when the decision involves a large number of variables with complex relationships. A realistic example for many college students is the question What will I do after graduation? A graduate might seek a position that offers specialized training, pursue an advanced degree, or travel abroad for a year.A decision-making worksheet begins with a succinct statement of the problem that will also help to narrow it. It is important to be clear about the distinction between long-range and immediate goals because long-range goals often involve a different decision than short-range ones. Focusing on long- range goals, a graduating student might revise the question above to What will I do after graduation that will lead to successful career?1. What does the passage mainly discuss?(A) A tool to assist in making complex decisions.(B) A comparison of actual decisions and ideal decisions(C) Research on how people make decisions(D) Differences between long-range and short-range decision making2. The word essential in line 7 is closest in meaning to(A) introductory(B) changeable(C) beneficial(D) fundamental3. The word pertinent in line 9 is closest in meaning to(A) relevant(B) preceding(C) insightful(D) responsive4. Of the following steps, which occurs before the others in making a decision worksheet?(A) Listing the consequences of each solution(B) Calculating a numerical summary of each solution(C) Deciding which consequences are most important(D) Writing down all possible solutions5. According to decision-worksheet theory, an optimal decision is defined as one that(A) has the fewest variables to consider(B) uses the most decision worksheets(C) has the most points assigned to it(D) is agreed to by the greatest number of people6. The author develops the discussion in paragraph 1 bymeans of(A) describing a process(B) classifying types of worksheets(C) providing historical background(D) explaining a theory7. The author states that On the average, people can keep about seven ideas in their minds atonce (lines 17-18) to explain that(A) most decisions involve seven steps(B) human mental capacity has limitations(C) some people have difficulty making minor as well as major decisions(D) people can learn to keep more than seven ideas in their minds with practice8. The word succinct in line 24 is closest in meaning to(A) creative(B) satisfactory(C) personal(D) concise9. Which of the following terms is defined in the passage(A) Proponents (line 5)(B) Optimal (line 5)(C) Variables (line 17)(D) Long-range goals (line 25)10. The word it in line 24 refers to(A) worksheet(B) problem(C) distinction(D) decision11. The word revise in line 26 is closest in meaning to。

Listening ComprehensionSection One:Listening Comprehension听力原文:Listen to a conversation between a student (S) and the supervisor of employees (E) at the university library. The student is a part-time employee at the library.E: Hi, Melissa! How was your economics exam?S: It was actually pretty challenging. Thanks for letting me take time off from here to study for it.E: Well, like we said, when we hired you, your schoolwork is always a priority as long as you give us sufficient notice as to when you need off. When you were out though, we had a staff meeting explaining a couple of things. We’ll be dividing work in a new way, and we’ll also be using a new procedure for employees to keep track of what work they do.S: You mean instead of keeping track of how many hours we work per week?E: No, you’ll still need to keep track of your total hours, so you can get paid each week. The new procedure I’m talking about will be extra.S: And you said the work will be divided differently?E: Yes. You work at the circulation desk, right?S: Right.E: So, right now you check out books for students, log the returned books, and sort them by category so the stock team can put them back on the shelves. Anything else?S: No, that’s about it.E: Ok. Well, we’re expanding that job to have you do some other tasks too, so going forward you will also help students locate books on the shelves and put returned books in their proper places on the shelves.S: Oh, that’ll be good. There are times when I sit at the desk just waiting for students to come by to check out or return books.E: Ok, and now for the tracking procedure. We’re asking employees to keep track of the specific tasks they do and for how long. For example, when you’re at the circulation desk, how much time do you spend checking in returned books and separating them, or how much time do you spend checking out books for students to borrow?S: Wow, and this seems very specific. I’m just wondering why do we have to be so detailed?E: Well, the university wants a written job description for each role, so we’re putting together a summary of student jobs at the library with specific details about each job, what specific tasks it entails and how much of the job is spent on each task. It won’t be as complicated as it sounds. You’ll have a piece of paper listing all the tasks you do, and you’ll just need to write on it how many minutes you spend on each task. You’ll submit it with your weekly timesheet.S: I also wanted to ask for a few days off again. I have a project due for my world history class at the end of the month.E: That’s fine. Please email me the details. For now, go meet with Ms. Stanton in the reference section. She’ll show you how to help students who are looking for specific books.1.What is the conversation mainly about?A.Additional tasks the student will be expected to carry outB.The student’s interest in switching jobs at the libraryC.Procedures the student should use to request time of her workD.An evaluation of the student’s performance at her library job正确答案:A解析:内容主旨题。

托福(听力)历年真题试卷汇编1(题后含答案及解析)
托福(听力)历年真题试卷汇编1(题后含答案及解析) 题型有:1. Listening ComprehensionSection One:Listening Comprehension听力原文:Listen to a conversation between a student (S) and her architecture professor (P).S: Yesterday I happened to be flicking through one of my roommate’s magazines when a striking digital image of an urban building caught my attention. The unusual form of the building, specifically the way its roof was shaped into several steep, sharp points, it was really unique. Kind of futuristic, you know? When I stopped and actually read the article describing it, I was even more intrigued! The team that’s proposing the design calls it an “iceberg.”P: Yes, I’ve heard about that. The iceberg design is a fascinating concept. Are you considering using that for your model project?S: Yes, that’s exactly what I mean! It’s really cutting-edge.P: It is. What you’re working with, essentially, is a building that really boils down to two components: a steel skeleton and also a flexible high-tech plastic fabric that encases the steel skeleton.S: Yeah! I remember reading that. It’s supposed to function pretty much like a tent, right?P: That’s correct! It uses hardly any building materials as a result. Fewer materials mean that it’s more environmentally friendly. Now, do you know why the iceberg was proposed?S:No.P: Well, it was the designer’s mission to create buildings that could be very quickly assembled to provide attractive retail space.S: Hmm..., interesting.P: You see, undeveloped city sites need to be effectively used; otherwise they might become a huge financial burden to the property owner. The owner has to continue to pay taxes on the land, even when it’s nothing more than an empty lot. So with their vision, they thought of putting up an iceberg. The property owner would rent out the space and that would help generate income for the owner.S: Awesome! I’m pretty sure that the iceberg concept would be ideal for the project now.P: Seems so. And you read about air beams in the magazine article, right?S: Actually, I saw the term used a couple of times, but I didn’t quite understand the details.P: Well, one reason that this type of building is able to morph into such unusual shapes and lean its walls at such extreme angles is that empty sections of plastic are sewn in, and these sections are then inflated with air. These inflated air beams make it possible to have different types of extensions on each building, like the pointed sections of the roof you mentioned. And they’re sturdy, solid, and still very light weight.S: Ahh...I guess this is why they’re nicknamed “inflatable buildings.”P: That’s right, so they’re a feature critical to get right, ok?S: Got it. I’ll make sure to get up to speed on that then.P: Great! Oh, by the way, before you head off, are you going to be able to join the group for the field trip to the Frank Lloyd Wright house? I have to submit the names to the dean. It’s on the 20th, remember?S: Oh, yes, the 20th. It’s on the syllabus, but you said that it was voluntary, right?1.Why does the student speak with the professor?A.To discuss an architectural concept she would like to work with.B.To review her work on a project she recently submitted.C.To ask for assistance coming up with an idea for her assignment.D.To go over an article the professor had assigned.正确答案:A解析:目的主旨题。

Sophisticated technology and machinery were virtually nonexistent. People who lived in the cities and were not directly involved in trade often participated in small cottage industries making handcrafted goods. Others cured meats, silversmiths, candle5) or otherwise produced needed goods and commodities. Blacksmiths, silversmiths, candle makers, and other artisans worked in their homes or barns, relying on help of family Perhaps no single phenomenon brought more widespread and lasting change to the United States society than the rise of industrialization. Industrial growth hinged on several10) economic factors. First, industry requires an abundance of natural resources, especially coal, iron ore, water, petroleum, and timber-all readily available on the North American continent. Second, factories demand a large labor supply. Between the 1870's and the First World War (1914-1918), approximately 23 million immigrants streamed to the United States, settled in cities, and went to work in factories and mines. They also helped15)build the vast network of canals and railroads that crisscrossed the continent and linked important trade centers essential to industrial growth. Factories also offered a reprieve from the backbreaking work and financial unpredictability associated with farming. Many adults, poor and disillusioned with farm life, were lured to the cities by promises of steady employment, regular paychecks,20) increased access to goods and services, and expanded social opportunities. Others were pushed there when new technologies made their labor cheap or expendable; inventions such as steel plows and mechanized harvesters allowed one farmhand to perform work that previously had required several, thus making farming capital-intensive rather than labor-intensive.25) The United States economy underwent a massive transition and the nature of work was permanently altered. Whereas cottage industries relied on a few highly skilled craft workers who slowly and carefully converted raw materials into finished products from start to finish, factories relied on specialization. While factory work was less creative and more monotonous, it was also moreefficient and allowed mass production of goods at less expense.1.What aspect of life in the United States does the passage mainly discuss?(A) The transition from an agricultural to an industrial economy(B) The inventions that transformed life in the nineteenth century(C) The problems associated with the earliest factories(D) The difficulty of farm life in the nineteenth century2. Blacksmiths, silversmiths, and candle makers are mentioned in lines 5-6 as examples of artisans who(A) maintained their businesses at home(B) were eventually able to use sophisticated technology(C) produced unusual goods and commodities(D) would employ only family members3. The phrase "hinged on" in line 9 is closest in meaning to(A) recovered from(B) depended on(C) started on(D) contributed to4. Which of the following is mentioned in the passage as a reason for the industrial growth that occurred in the United States before 1914?(A)The availability of natural resources found only in the United States(B) The decrease in number of farms resulting from technological advances(C) The replacement of canals and railroads by other forms of transportation(D) The availability of a large immigrant work force5.

Notwithstanding preening and constant care, the marvelously intricate structure of a bird's Feather inevitably wears out. All adult birds molt their feathers at least once a year, and upon close observation, one can recognize the frayed, ragged appearance of feathers that5) are nearing the end of their useful life. Two distinct processes are involved in molting. The first step is when the old, worn feather is dropped, or shed. The second is when a new feather grows in its place. When each feather has been shed and replaced, then the molt can be said to be complete. This, however, is anabstraction that often does not happen: incomplete, overlapping, and arrested molts are quite common.10) Molt requires that a bird find and process enough protein to rebuild approximately one-third of its body weight. It is not surprising that a bird in heavy molt often seems listless and unwell. But far from being random, molt is controlled by strong evolutionary forces that have established an optimal time and duration. Generally, molt occurs at the time of least stress on the bird. Many songbirds, for instance, molt in late summer, when15) the hard work of breeding is done but the weather is still warm and food still plentiful. This is why the woods in late summer often seem so quiet, when compared with the Exuberant choruses of spring.Molt of the flight feathers is the most highly organized part of the process. Some species, for example, begin by dropping the outermost primary feathers on each side (to retain20) balance in the air) and wait until the replacement feathers are about one-third grown before shedding the next outermost, and so on. Others always start with the innermost primary feathers and work outward. Yet other species begin in the middle and work outward on both weeks while the replacement feathers grow.11.The passage mainly discusses how(A) birds prepare for breeding(B) bird feathers differ from species(C) birds shed and replace their feathers(D) birds are affected by seasonal changes12.The word "Notwithstanding" in line 2 is closestin meaning to(A) despite(B) because of(C) instead of(D) regarding13.The word "intricate" in line 2 is closest in meaning to(A) regular(B) complex(C) interesting(D) important14.The word "random" in line 12 is closest in meaning to(A) unfortunate(B) unusual(C) unobservable(D) unpredictable15.The word "optimal" in line 13 is closest in meaning to(A) slow(B) frequent(C) best(D) early16.Which of the following is NOT mentioned as a reason that songbirds molt in the late summer?(A) Fewer predators are in the woods.(B) The weathers is still warm.(C) The songbirds have finished breeding.(D) Food is still available.17. Some birds that are molting maintain balance during flight by(A) constantly preening and caring for their remaining feathers(B) dropping flight feathers on both sides at the same time(C) adjusting the angle of their flight to compensate for lost feathers(D) only losing one-third of their feathers18.The word "Others" in line 21 refers to(A) ducks(B) sides(C) species(D) flight feathers19.The author discusses ducks in order to provide an example of birds that(A) grow replacement feathers that are very long(B) shed all their wing feathers at one time(C) keep their innermost feathers(D) shed their outermost feathers first20.

The philosophy of the movement combined realism, ethnicconsciousness, and Americanism. Encouraged by the example of certain Americans5) of European descent such as Thomas Eakins, Robert Henri, and George Luks, who had included persons of African descent in their pa上一页[1] [2] [3] [4] [5] [6] [7] [8] [9] [10] ... 下一页>>上一页[1] [2] [3] [4] [5] [6] [7] [8] [9] [10] ... 下一页>>真题库:托福考试真题测试intings as serious studies rather than as trivial or sentimental stereotypes, African American artists of this period set about creating a new portrayal of themselves and their lives in the United States. As they began to strive for social and cultural independence. Their attitudes toward themselves changed,10) and, to some extent, other segments of American society began to change their attitudes toward them. Thus, thought the Harlem Renaissance was a short-lived movement, its impact on American art and culture continues to the present.The district in New York City know as Harlem was the capital of the movement. In 1925 an issue of Survey Graphic magazine devoted exclusively to Harlem and edited15) by philosopher Alain Locke became the manifesto of the African American artistic movement. Locke strongly suggested that individuals, while accepting their Americanism, take pride in their African ancestral arts and urged artists to look to Africa for substance and inspiration. Far from advocating a withdrawal from American culture, as did some of his contemporaries, Locke recommended a cultural pluralism through which artists could20) enrich the culture of America. African Americans were urged by Locke to be collaborators and participators with other Americans in art, literature, and music; and at the same time to preserve, enhance, and promote their own cultural heritage.Artists and intellectuals from many parts of the United States and the Caribbean had Been attracted to Harlem by the pulse and beat of its unique and dynamic culture. From25) this unity created by the convergence of artists from various social and geographical backgrounds came a new spirit, which, particularly in densely populated Harlem, was to result in greater group awareness and self-determination. African American graphic artists took their place beside the poets and writers of the Harlem Renaissance and carried on efforts to increase and promote the visual arts.21.What does the passage mainly discuss?(A) African American paintings in the 1920's(B) An arts movement of the 1920's(C) The influence of Alain Locke on African American art(D) Some ways in which African culture inspired American literature, art and music22.
