Questions 1~5In some rural agricultural societies, the collection of available fuel such as firewood, dung cake, and agricultural waste can take 200 to 300 person-days per year. As well as being time consuming, the typical patterns of collection lead to deforestation, soil erosion, and ecological imbalances. In the future, experts predict that even if food supplies are adequate for rural populations, fuel supplies for domestic use may not be. In the light of such considerations, a team in India has developed a solar oven for home use. The oven is cheaply constructed, easily operated, and extremely energy efficient. The device consists of an inner and outer metal box, a top cover, and two panes of plain glass. The inner box is painted black to absorb maximum solar radiation. The space between the two boxes is filled with an insulating material, such as rice husks, which are easily available and which, because of their high silicon content, neither attract insects nor rot easily. Other easily available materials for insulation are ground nutshells or coconut shells. An adjustable mirror mounted on one side of the oven box reflects the sunlight into the interior, boosting the temperatures by 15-30 degrees Celsius. This is most useful during the winter when the sun is lower. Inside the oven, a temperature between 80 and 120 degrees Celsius above ambient temperature can be maintained. This is sufficient to cook food gradually but surely. Trials have shown that all typical food dishes can be prepared in this solar device without loss of taste or nutrition.1.This passage is mainly about .(A) deforestation in the rural agricultural societies(B) use of rice husks as an insulation material(C) design and use of a solar oven(D) maintenance of temperature in a solar oven2. All of the following are mentioned as sources of energy of rural agricultural societies EXCEPT .(A) firewood (B) dung cake(C) solar power (D) agricultural waste3.The word “domestic”(paragraph 1) is closest in meaning to .(A) industrial (B) agricultural(C) natural (D) household4. According to the passage, the use of an adjustable mirror increases the oven temperature by .(A) 80-120 degrees Celsius (B) at least 80 degrees Celsius(C) up to 30 degrees Celsius (D) up to 15 degrees Celsius5.According to the passage, the adjustable mirror is most useful .(A) at midday (B) when it is cold(C) When firewood is lacking (D) in improving taste and nutritionQuestions 6~10There must be few questions on which responsible opinion is so utterly divided as on that of how much sleep we ought to have. There are some who think we can leave body to regulate these matters for itself. “The answer is easy,” says Dr.. A. Burton. “With the right amount of sleep you should wake up fresh and alert five minutes before the alarm rings.” If he is right many people must be under sleeping, including myself. But we must remember that some people have a grater inertia than others. This is not meant rudely. They switch on slowly, and they are reluctant to switch off. They are alert at bedtime and sleepy when it is time to get up, and this many have nothing to do with how fatigued their bodies are, or how much sleep they must take to lose their fatigue.Other people feel sure that the present trend is towards too little sleep. To quoteone medical opinion, “Thousands of people drift through life suffering from the effects of too little sleep; the reason is not that can’t sleep. Like advancing colonists, we do seem to be grasping ever more of the land of sleep for our waking needs, pushing the boundary back and reaching, apparently, for a point in our evolution where we will sleep no more. This in itself, of course, need not be a bad thing. What could be disastrous, however, is that we should press to quickly towards this goal, sacrificing sleep only to gain more time in which to jeopardize our civilization by actions and decisions made weak by fatigue.”Then, to complete the picture, there are those who believe that more people are persuaded to sleep too much. Dr H. Roberts, writing in Every Man in, asserts: “It may safely be stated that, just as the majority eat too much, so the majority sleep too much.” One can see the point of this also. It would be a pity to retard our development by holding back those people who are gifted enough to work and play well less than the average amount of sleep, if indeed it does them no harm. If one of the trends of evolutions is that more of the life span is to be spent in gainful waking activity, then surely these people are in the van of this advance.6.The author seems to indicate that .(A) there are many controversial issues like the right amount of sleep(B) among many issues the right amount of sleep is the least controversial(C) the right amount of sleep is topic of much controversy among doctors(D) people are now moving towards solving many controversial issues concerning sleep7.According to the author, sleeping habits .(A) are related to the amount of sleep(B) are inherited from the parents(C) vary from person to person(D) would not change in one’s lifetime8.The world “jeopardize” (paragraph 2) is closest in meaning to .(A) endeavor (B) endanger(C) endorse (D) endow9. In the last paragraph the author points out that .(A) sleeping less is good for human health(B) people ought to be persuaded to sleep less than before(C) it is incorrect to say that people too little(D) those who can sleep less should be encouraged10. We learn from the passage that the author .(A) revises someone else’s opinion(B) explains an opinion of his own(C) favors one of the three opinions(D) comments on three different opinionsQuestions 11~15She looked in the pockets of the black leather jacket he had reluctantly worn the night before. Three of his suits, a pair of blue twill work pants, an old gray sweater with a hood and pockets lay thrown across the bed. The jacket leather was sleazy and damply clinging to her hands. She had bought it for him, as well as the three suits: one light blue with side vents, one gold with green specks, and one reddish that had a silver imitation-silk vest. The pockets of the jacket came softly outward from the lining like skinny milk toast rats. Empty. Slowly she sank down on the bed and began to knead, with blunt anxious fingers, all the pockets in all the clothes piled around her. First the blue suit, then the gold with green, then the reddish one that he said he didn’t like most of all, but which he would sometimes wear if she agreed to stay home, or if she promised not to touch anywhere at all while he was getting dressed.She was a big awkward woman, with big bones and hard rubbery flesh. Her short arms ended in ham hands, and her neck was a squat roll of fat that protruded behind her head as a big bump. Her skin was rough and puffy, with plump mole like freckles down her cheeks. Her eyes glowered from under the mountain of her brow and were circled with expensive mauve shadow. They were nervous and quick when she was flustered and darted about at nothing in particular while she was dressing hair or talking to people.Her troubles started noticeably when she fell in love with a studiously quiet schoolteacher, Mr. Jerome Franklin Washington III, who was ten years younger than her. She told herself that she shouldn’t want him, he was so little and cute and young, but when she took into account that he was a schoolteacher, well, she just couldn’t seem to get any rest until, as she put it, “I were Mr. And Mrs. Jerome Franklin Washington the third, and that’s the truth!”11. The word “sleazy” (paragraph 1) is closest in meaning to .(A) lacking moisture (B) lacking persistence(C) lacking substance (D) lacking confidence12. Jerome’s taste in clothing is probably .(A) worse than the woman’s (B) very loud and flashy(C) different from the woman’s (D) on agreement with the woman’s13. Apparently Jerome will occasionally wear the reddish suit if .(A) She is very good to him (B) she will leave him alone(C) she buys him more clothes (D) she gets a better education14. According to the passage, which of the following is NOT true about the woman?(A) She is married to a school teacher.(B) Her eyes move around a lot at times.(C) She is ten years older than Jerome.(D) She has found what she is looking for.15. According to the passage, which of the following can be concluded form the passage about this couple?(A) They will live happily ever after.(B) Their marriage is not harmonious.(C) The couple will adopt children.(D) They will become schoolteachers.Questions 16~20An anthropologist recorded the expenses for ceremonies he attended in a village in Thailand.

There are numerousfallacies, however, in this conception of sharks. First, there are about 350 species of shark, andnot all of them are large. They range in size from the dwarf shark, which can be only 6 inches(0.5 feet) long and can be held in the palm of the hand, to the whale shark, which can be morethan 55 feet long.A second fallacy concerns the number and type of teeth, which canvary tremendouslyamong the different species of shark. A shark can have from one to seven sets of teeth at sametime, and some types of shark can have several hundred teeth in each jaw. It is true that the fierceand predatory species do possess extremely sharp and brutal teeth used to rip their prey apart;many other types of shark, however, have teeth more adapted to grabbing and holding than tocutting and slashing.Finally, not all sharks are predatory animals ready to strike out at humans on the leastwhim. In fact, only 12 of the 350 species of shark have been known to attack humans, and sharkneeds to be provoked in order to attack. The types of shard that have the worst record withhumans are the tiger shark, the bull shark, and the great white shark. However, for most speciesof shark, even some of the largest types, there are no known instances of attacks on humans.1.The author's main purpose in the passage is to.A. categorize the different kinds of sharks throughout the worldB. warn humans of the dangers posed by sharksC. describe the characteristics of shark teethD. clear up misconceptions about sharks2. The longest shark is probably the.shark D. tiger sharkA. whale sharkC. bull sharkB. great white3. Which of the following is NOT true about a shark's teeth?A. All sharks have teeth.B. A shark can have six rows of teeth.C. A shark can have hundreds of teeth.D. All sharks have extremely sharp teeth.4. A “jaw” (parag raph 3) isA. a part of the shark's tailC. a backbone5. The passage indicates that a shark attacks a person.A. for no reason6 B. a part of the stomach D. a bone in the mouth B. every time it sees oneC. only if it is botheredD. only at night6. It can be inferred from the passage that a person should probably be the least afraid of.A. a dwarf shark C. a bull sharkB. a tiger sharkD. a great white sharkQuestions 7~11Quite different from storm surges are the giant sea waves called tsunamis, which derivetheir name from the Japanese expression for “high water in a harbor”. These waves are alsoreferred to by the general public as tidal waves, although they have relatively little to do withtides. Scientists often refer to them as seismic sea waves, far more appropriate in that they doresult from undersea seismic activity.Tsunamis are caused when the sea bottom suddenly moves, during an underwaterearthquake or volcano for example, and the water above the moving earth is suddenly displaced.This sudden shift of water sets off a series of waves. These waves can travel great distances atspeeds close to 700 kilometers per hour. In the open ocean, tsunamis have little noticeableamplitude, often no more than one or two meters. It is when they hit the shallow waters near thecoast that they increase in height, possibly up to 40 meters.Tsunamis often occur in the Pacific because the pacific is an area of heavy seismic activity.Two areas of the Pacific well accustomed to the threat of tsunamis are Japan and Hawaii.Because the seismic activity that causes tsunamis in Japan often occurs on the ocean bottomquite close to the islands, the tsunamis that hit Japan often come with little warning and cantherefore prove disastrous. Most of the tsunamis that hit the Hawaiian Islands, however,originate thousands of miles away near the coast of Alaska, so these tsunamis have a muchgreater distance to travel and the inbabitants of hawaii generally have time for warning of theirimminent arrival.Tsunamis are certainly not limited to Japan and Hawaii. In 1755,Europe experienced acalamitous tsunami, when movement along the fault lines near the Azores caused a massivetsunami to sweep onto the Portuguese coast and flood the heavily populated area around Lisbon.The greatest tsunami on record on the other side of the world in 1883 when the krakatoa volcanounderwent a massive explosion, sending waves more than 30 meters high onto nearbyIndonesian islands; the tsunami from this volcano actually traveled around the world and waswitnessed as far away as the English Channel.7. The paragraph preceding this passage most probably discusses.A. tidal waves C. storm surgesB. tidesD. underwater earthquakes8. According to the passage, all of the following are true about tidal waves EXCEPT that.A. they are the same as tsunamisB. they are caused by sudden changes in highand low tidesC. this terminology is not used by the scientific communityD. they refer to the same phenomenon as seismic sea waves9. It can be inferred from the passage that tsunamis.A. cause severe damage in the middle of the oceanB. generally reach heights greater than 40 metersC. are far more dangerous on the coast than in the open oceanD. are often identified by ships on the ocean10. A. main difference between tsunamis in Japan and in Hawaii is that tsunamis in Japan aremore likely to.A. arrive without warning C. be less of a problemB. come from greater distances D. originate in Alaska11. The passage suggests that the tsunami resulting from the Krakatoa volcano.A. caused volcanic explosions in the English ChannelB. was far more destructive close to the source than far awayC. was unobserved outside of the Indonesian islandsD. resulted in little damage.Questions 12~16FIRE InstructionsTHE PERSON DLSCOVERING A FIRE WILL:1.

To get something done—a signature on a document. or a quickdecision—it helps to know someone “on the inside”. At least, this is the widespread belief.It is a comforting belief too. If your boss strikes you asincompetent, it is tempting tobelieve that he only got the job because his father pulled some strings If someone else gets thejob which you should have had, well, the “old boy network” must be operating. And yet, if wecan get what we want by “having a word” with so-and-so, or by getting so-and-so to put in agood word for us, which of us would not take advantage of the opportunity?Often it is quite harmless. For instance, when Miguel went with Julia to visit Michelle inhospital, he bumped into someone he knew, a doctor who had been at medical school with hisfather. As a result of this chance meeting, Miguel was able to find out a great deal aboutMichelle's condition. Julia was not only grateful to him for making use of his connection, butdelighted that she was able to learn so much by this means which she of his connection, butdelighted that she was able to learn so much by this means which she might never have foundout otherwise.At the other extreme it can be very destructive. I once met a brilliant young engineer whoworked in a chemical plant. Because of her knowledge and experience, she should have beenpromoted to Production Manager. Instead, the job went to a man who was totally unsuited for thepost. Everyone knew that he only got it because he was politicallyacceptable to his superiors.This injustice demoralized the young engineer and many of her colleagues. It also meant that thefactory was much less efficient than it could have been.All the same, we should not be pessimistic. More and more, the modem world depends onhaving people who are in the job because they are good enough, not just because heir face fits.There is a story of a factory owner who sent for an engineer to see to a machine which would notgo. He examined it, then took out a hammer and tapped it, once. The machine started upimmediately. When he presented his bill, the owner protested, “This can't be fight! 100 poundsjust for tapping a machine with a hammer?” The engineer wrote out a new bill: “For tapping amachi ne, 1 pound; for knowing where to tap it, 99 pounds.”Maybe it is what you know that really counts, after all. 17. It is believed that people have succeeded in life because_________.A. they are influential C. they are from rich familiesB. they feel superior to others D. they have some special advantage18. Which of the following is the best definition of the expression “old boy network” (para. 2)?A. People who were at school together helpeach other to get good jobs.B. Older people help younger people,especially if they are the children offriends.C. People of the same family background helpeach other to get ton in life.D. The best jobs often go to people who havethe right political connections.19. Miguel took advantage of the fact that he knew the doctor in order to get more informationabout Michelle's condition. According to the writer, Miguel's action is.A. an example of how badly everybody behavesin using such opportunitiesB. an example of how some people have anunfair advantage over othersC. an example of the way we can use suchopportunities without hurting anyone elseD. a good example of how to get somethingdone by knowing someone “on the inside”.20. The engineer at the chemical plant was not promoted because.A. it is very difficult for a woman to geta promotion to a managerial positionB. her bosses did not think she had the rightqualifications for the jobC. the man who got the promotion was moreexperienced than she wasD. her bosses did not approve of herpolitical opinions21. The engineer who repaired the machine was right to charge 100 pounds becauseA. he was the only person who could find outwhat was wring with itB. he was charging for his knowledge andexpertiseC. the factory owner could not have repairedit himselfD. he hit the machine to get it stared again Questions 22~26In the immediate post-war years, the city of Birmingham scheduled some 50,00 small working class cottages as slums due for demolition. Today that process is nearly complete. Yet itis clear that, quite apart from any question of race, an environmental problem remains. The expectation built into the planning policies of 1945 was that in the foreseeable future thecitywould be a better place to live in. But now that slum clearance has run its course there seems to be universal agreement that the total environment where the slums once stood is more depressing than ever.For thepast tenyears theslumclearanceareas havelooked likebomb sites.Thebuildings and places which survive do so on islands in a sea of rubble and ash. When the slums were therethey supported an organic community life and each building, each activity, fitted in as part of thewhole. But now that they have been destroyed, nothing meaningful appears to remain, or ratherthose activities which do go on do not seem to have any meaningful relation to the place. Theyhappen there because it is an empty stage which no-one is using any more.Typical of the inner-city in this sense is the Birmingham City Football Ground.Standing inun-splendid isolation on what is now wasteland on the edge of Small Heath, it brings into the area a stage army on twenty of so Saturdays a year who come and cheer and then go away again with little concern any more for the place where they have done their cheering. Even they,however, have revolted recently. “Th e ground” says the leader of the revolt, “is a slum”, thusputting his finger on the fact that the demolition of houses creates rather than solves problems ofthe inner city.element has now come upon the scene in the inner-city in the form of the over block. Somehow it doesn't seem to be what Le Corbusier and the planners who wrote those post war Pelicans intended. The public spaces either haven't yet been developed or are more meanly conceived, and the corridors and lifts are places of horror. In fact these places were alwayssuspect. They had no legitimacy in the minds of the public as suburban family housing had, andthose who were placed there felt that they had been cheated. Along with the decaying elements, therefore, that which had been conceived as part of the brave new world was part of the problem.22. The past few decades in Birmingham have proved that slum clearance____ _______.A. takeslonger timethanexpectedB. createsas manyproblems asit solvesC. oftenraisesracialissuesD. hasachievedits aims 23. According to the passage now that the slum dwellings havegone_________ ,A. no onedoesanythings at all in those areasB. urban theatrical life has gone, tooC. rebuilding can start almost immediatelyD. the area is extremely unattractive24. According to the author, a number of Birmingham City football fans_________.A. express their dissatisfaction about theslum clearanceB. are as rebellious as any other club'ssupportersC. get necessary release from watching theirteam playD. are concerned about the future of thatpart of Birmingham25. What did people think about tower bocks when thy were first built?A. Town planners thought they were badlyconceived.B. The public compared them with ruralhousing.C. The man in the street didn't like them atall.D. People thought them an improvement onsuburban housing.26. This passage is most probably taken from__________.A. an official local planning reportB. a novel set in BirminghamC. a history of the Industrial RevolutionD. a sociology textbookQuestions 27~30MILESTONES IN ENGLISH The inspectors suggest that the pupilsshould have achieved the following at each stage oftheir school career:By the age of 7Listening: Carry out simple, heard instructions; understand simple oral information; keeplistening attentively for reasonably lengthy periods; follow and remember an uncomplicated story; respond to poetic rhythm.

上外中级口译第三版听力教程原文及讲解--Unit 1

中级口译听力教程第三版1AAn intermediate course of English listening Third editionUnit one. Part one. Shopping over the internet.3. Exercises.1. Listen to a passage about a new mode of shopping, and then choose the correct answer to each question you hear.In 2005 consumers could purchase virtually anything over the internet, books, compact discs, and even stocks were available from World Wide Web sites that seem to spring up almost daily. A few years earlier some people had predicted that consumers accustomed to shopping in stores would be reluctant to buy things that they could not see or touch in person. For growing number of time starved consumers however, shopping from their home computer was proving to be a convenient alternative to driving to the store. A research estimated that in 2008 US consumers would purchase 7.3 billion dollars of goods over the internet, double the 2006 total. Finding a bargain was getting easier owing to the rise of online auctions, and websites that did comparison shopping on the internet for the best deal. For all the consumer interest, retailing in cyber space was still a largely unprofitable business however. Internet pioneer which began selling books in 1995 and later branched into recorded music and videos posted revenue of 153.7 million dollars, in the third quarter of this year, up from 37.9 million dollars in the same period of 2002. Overall howe ver, the company’s loss widened to 45.2 million dollars from 9.6 million dollars. An analyst did not expect the company to turn a profit until 2006. Despite the great loss, has a stock market value of many billions, reflecting investors’ optimism of other future industry. Internet retailing appeal to investors because it provided an efficient means of reaching millions of consumers without having the cost of operating conventional stores with their armies of sales people. Selling online carries its own risks however. With so many companies competing for consumers’ attention price competition was intense and profit margins thin or non-existent. One video retailer sold the hit movie Titanic for 9 dollars and 99 cents. Under cutting the 19 dollars and 99 cents suggest it retail price and losing about 6 dollars on each copy sold. With internet retailing still in its initial stage companies seem willing to absorb such losses in an attempt to establish a dominate market position.Questions.1). The passage gives examples to show that almost anything could be purchased on the internet. Which of the following is not one of those examples?2). What had some people predicted a few years earlier customers would like to do?3). How much worth of goods would US consumers buy in 2008 according to a research estimate?4). Which of the following statements is true about retailing in cyberspace?5). Which of the following factors explains the risks of selling online?2. Listen again and then supply the missing information in the following passage. Part 2. Statements. 2. Exercises.

Listen to the conversation which takes place in a store and then choose the correct answer to each question you hear.M: May I help you?W: Yes. I want to buy some shoes to replace the ones I am wearing.M: What’s wrong with them?W: They are too old and shabby.M: I can see they have simply been worn out. Would you like the same color more or less?W: Yes, and something a little less casual.M: How about this light brown pair. They are similar to what you have, but a little bit dressier.W: Yes, I was thinking of something along that line. I will try them on.M: They certainly look charming.W: The trouble is they feel uncomfortable.M: Then try on this other pair in a similar style but by a different manufacturer. W: These are much better. Do you have them in red?M: Yes. Would you like both pairs?W: Yes, if they won’t cost too much.M: Oh, no, they won’t. The second pair is of half price. Shall I put them both in a box for you?W: Just the red and the old ones. I will wear the new brown pair home. Questions:1). What was the woman shopping for?2). Why did the woman’s shoes look shabby?3). What was wrong with the first pair of shoes the woman tried on?4). How many pairs of shoes did the woman buy?5). Which shoes did the woman wear home?2. The design of shopping malls.Listen to the following passage about the shopping malls. And then supply the missing information in the spaces provided.The shopping mall has designed for only one thing, encouraging people to buy, buy, buy. How do they do this? Well, it is something of an art, an art that has been brought to perfection in the 50 years since malls first started appearing in America. Every aspect of mall design is carefully calculated to appeal to the customers’ psychological needs. This starts with the over all environment. Tests have shown that people feel most relaxed and comfortable at a temperature of 24 to 26 degrees. So this is the air temperature of most malls. If it is any hotter, people may become too lazy to walk, any cooler, they may rush around and leave before they have spent enough money. The choice of color is also very important. Dark colors like orange or purple can make people feel irritable or unhappy.With such feelings they are not likely to do much shopping. Therefore very dark colors are almost never used in malls. Instead walls are usually painted in light colors which make customers feel relaxed and give the mall a spacious feeling. The arrangement of space in the mall is also done with great care. Research shows that most people are unwilling to walk more than 200 meters to shop. In one of the new giant malls this could be a problem. There are 2 ways to deal with the problem. The walk ways in malls can be made curved or angled to hide their true length, or they can be broken up by fountains, up displace, or any of those other things that you thought were just there to entertain you. The arrangement of the stores in the mall is relatively easy. The big department stores are the major attractions that encourage people to come to the mall. These should be kept well apart. Stores selling the same items should also be kept far apart, so that anyone who is comparing prices has to go passed as many other stores as possible. After all up to 60 percent of all items bought in malls are purchased on impulse.3. SOHO, small offices, home offices.Listen to the following passage about SOHO. And then supply the missing information in the passage.Today researchers and marketers have identified a segment that is now labeled SOHO. It means small offices home offices, whether they are high-tech startups or women selling Marry Cay. But they drive America’s economic growth and have created most of the new jobs in the last 20 years. Three percent of companies accounted for 6 million of the 7.7 million jobs that were added to the economy between 2001 and 2005. Small businesses represent over 90 percent of all businesses in the US, within economic output greater than Germany or France or the UK. Reportedly home based workers earn more money. The 46 million home based workers in the United States including a large number of women working at home in an attempt to better balance work in family earn 28 percent more than the average office worker, and spend less time making their pay. Of course this could be due in part to the fact that more experienced and aggressive workers tend to start their own businesses. Remember going into business on your own or from a home office may mean making due with less. But it can also mean achieving more, more independence, more challenges, more results. In the long run, it may mean more money for you and your family. In a word doing it on your own means freedom to grow, experiment, and learn. If you are successful you won’t have to go ask for raise or accept what you are given, or worry about being turned out to passed year when a younger version of yourself comes along. You will have the freedom to enjoy the profits of your own work and the continuing growth in profit which comes from owning your business.Part 4. Listening and translation.3. Exercises.1.
