It's a lot of fun.B: He talked about fish sticks?A: Not exactly. Bur he did talk about frozen fish. OK, this is back in 1912, right? It's20 degrees below zero. And this guy Clarence Birdseye's out ice-fishing.B: Where is this, Antarctica?A: No. Massachusetts I think. Anyway he catches a fish and drops it beside him on the ice and it freezes solid.B: So?A: So, later at home he thaws out(解冻)the fish in a bucket(桶)of water and it's alive.Of course Birdseye is amazed. But he eventually figures out that the fish froze so fast that no large ice crystals formed.B: What do you mean?A: Look, usually when a plant or animal cell freezes, large ice crystals form inside and eventually tear the cell walls. That's what kills the frozen plant or animal. And also what changes the taste of something that's been frozen. But if you freeze something quickly, only very small ice crystals form. So Birdseye invented the process of quick freezing food.B: And that was the beginning of the frozen foods?A: Right.35. Why does the woman tell the man the story?36. Why is it important to quick freeze fresh food?37. What was Clarence Birdseye surprised to learn?PART C38 - 41At the beginning of the century the railroads were used to haul(拖运)everything. Powerful railroad barons(巨头) made fortunes without having to be accountable to the public or considerate of the customers. But cars and trucks changed all of that. And by 1970, the rail industry was beset(困扰)with problems. Trucks were taking all the new business. And even so the rail industry remained indifferent to customers. Also many regulations keptthe rail industry from adjusting to shifting market. But in 1980s, the rail industry entered the modern era when a deregulation(反常)bill was passed that allowed railroad companies to make quick adjustments to fees(费用)and practices. Companies reduced their lines by 1/3 and used fewer employees. They also took steps to minimize damage to product. And to increase their shipping capacity by stacking(堆)freight containers on railroad cars. To accommodate these taller loads,underpasses(高架桥下通道)and tunnels were enlarged. The image of the rail industry has changed dramatically. Today companies are very responsive to customers and are gaining increasing market shares in the shipping industry. The railroad safety record is also strong. Freight trains have an accident rate that is only 1/3 that of the trucking industry. Trains also come out ahead of(领先) the trucks on environmental grounds because they give off only 1/10 to 1/3 the pollution that is emitted by trucks. And railroading(铁路建设)does not wear out(消磨) highways as trucks do.38. What does the speaker mainly discuss?39. What development caused a decline in the use of railroads?40. What is one reason why the railroad industry is gaining public support?41. According to the speaker, what expense does trucking public support?42 - 45This coffee can(铁罐)contains soil from my garden. And I prepared slide samples to show you that it is alive. This ordinary backyard dirt is crawling(表面涂布不均的)with microbes. “Microbes” is not a very specific term. There are hundreds of thousands of different species called microbes. What they have in common is that we can't see them with a naked eye. They are microscopic. Look at this slide. You should see some round cells. Those are yeasts(酵母). Yeasts are fermenters(发酵桶). And they are necessary for making bread, beer, yogurt and so forth. Now look for an irregular shape with hairs coming out of it. That's a mold. Molds are decomposers, and they are responsible for the decomposition of my mycoplastlees. You should also see some protozoa(原虫). Some protozoa, like the one causes malaria, are harmful to people.A microbe causes disease is called a pathogen(病原体). Finally you should see a lot of squiggly(弯弯曲曲的)lines. They are bacteria. The oldest form of life on earth. Like these other microbes, bacteria are single-cells, but they are even more simple structure, because their cells do not have nucleus. So I've got about a teaspoon(荼匙)of soil in my hand. In that teaspoon are about ten thousand protozoa, 200 thousand mold cells, a million yeasts, and probably a billion bacteria.42. What is the main purpose of the talk?43. Why did the speaker take a soil sample from his garden?44. What does the speaker imply about yeasts?45. What does the speaker ask the class to look at during the talk?46-50Ten years ago, the eccentric(古怪的) cyclist pedaling(蹬) furiously though the first snowstorm of the year was rare sight, often captured on film for the evening news. Today however, it estimated that 4-5% of cyclists bicycle year-round. The increase popularity of winter cycling can be attributed to the creation of mountain bike and its subsequent imitation. Outfitted(配备) with part more sturdy than those of yesterday, equipped with their more stable bicycle, nothing seem to stop the new breed of winter cyclist. We straight dry and clear on those winter days. Many winter cyclists wear running shoes and protect themselves form the cold by wearing down-hill-skiing clothes. On wet days, cyclists can wear special water-proof over their shoes, but for all of its popularity, there is downside(下降趋势) to winter cycling. Even mountain bike can withstand winter snow and rain without extensive upkeep(维修费) , but one bicycle store owner is in the final stages of developing a year-round bicycle with innovated complete chain cover, with bicycle chains covered, cyclists would need clean and oil their chains only once every six month instead of once a week. Despite her invention, however, she still advises cyclists to take a taxi or bus when it’s snowing heavily. Not because conditions are too arduous for bicycle, but because she believes bikers can’t have confident in the people who drive car on days of reduced visibility.(能见度低)。

I’ve always wanted to spend sometime o ut Wyoming.Wait till you hear what the project is. She’s working with the buffalo population.The herds have been increasing in size latterly which is good in theory.Yeah. But I though they were in endanger of becoming extinct.Well, apparently, because of all the winter tourists, paths are created in the snow.More buffalo survived in the harsh winters because the paths made it easier for the buffalo to move around and find food. But it turns out that some of the herds are infected with the bacteria. Oh, yeah. I heard about that. A blue…A blue seller aborders.Right. It’s been around for quite a while.Yes, it has. And because the buffalo population is increasing, they’ve been roaming more than usual. And the disease’s begun to spread to the cattle ranch es that border the park.That’s bad news. Isn’t that the disease that causes animal to abort their young?Yes. And it’s caused a lot of controversy. Some of the ranchers even want to destroyed the buffalo herds.That’s awful! Have they made much progress w ith the research?So far, they’ve been collecting tissue samples from dead buffalo to see if the bacteria is present. I’ll really be interested in working on this. You know I’ve been researching diseased animal population.That’s why I thought of you. I to ok the liberty of mentioning your name to my friend.She’s hoping you’ll be able to spend the whole summer out there.Well, I was going to work on my thesis a lot in July. But I’m sure my adviser wouldn’t want meto pass up this opportunity.35. What did the professor want to talk to Ann about?36. According to the professor, why is the buffalo population increasing?37. Why does the professor think Ann would be interested in going to Yellow Stone?38. How will Ann probably spend the summer?Part CQuestions 39-41 Listen to a talk given by a tour guide.Welcome to Everglade’s National Park. The Everglade is a watery plain covered with saw grass that’s the home to numerous species of plants and wild life. And one and half million acre is too big to see it all today. But this tour will offer you a good sampling. Our tour bus will stop first at Tailor Slue. This is a good place to start because it’s home to many of the plants and animals typically associated with the everglade. You’ll see many exotic birds and of course a world famous alligators. Don’t worry. There’s a boardwalk that goes across the marsh, so you can look down at the animals in the water from a safe distance. The boardwalk is high enough to give you a great view of the saw grass prairie. From th ere we’ll head at some other marshy and even jungle-like areas that feature wonderful tropical plant life. For those of you who’d like a close view of the saw grass prairie, you might consider running a canoe sometime during your visit here. However, don’t do this unless you have a very good sense of direction and can negotiate your way through tall grass. We hate to have to come looking for you. You have a good fortune of being here in the winter, the best time of the year to visit. During the spring and summer the mosquitoes will just about to eat you alive. Right now, they are not so bothersome, but you’ll soon want to use an insect repellent.39. What is the main purpose of the tour?40. What does the speaker imply about pedaling across the water in a canoe?41. Why is it good to visit the everglades in the winter?Questions 42-46 Listen to a talk given by an astronaut.Thank you. It’s great to see so many of you interested in this series on survival in outer space. Please excuse the cameras. We are being radio taped for the local TV stations. Tonight I’m going to talk about the most basic aspect of survival—the space suit. When most of you imagine an astronaut, that’s probably the first thing that comes to mind, right? Well, without space suits, it would not be possible for us to survive in space. For example, outer space is a vacuum. There’s not gravity or air pressure. Without protection, a body would explode. What’s more, we’d cook in the sun or freeze in the shade with temperature’s ranging from a toasty 300 degrees above to a cool 300 degrees below zero Fahrenheit. The space suit that NASA has developed is truly a marvel. This photo enlargement here is a left side’s image of an actual space suit worn by astronauts on the last space shuttle mission. This part is the torso. It’s made of seven extremely durable layers. This thick insulationprotects against temperature extremes and radiation. Next is what they call a bladder of oxygen. That’s inflatable sack filled with oxygen to simulate atmospheric pressure. This bladder presses against the body with the same force as the earth atmospheric sea level. The innermost layers provide liquid cooling and ventilation. Despite all the layers, the suit is flexible allowing free movement, so we can walk. Another really sophisticated part of the space suit is the helmet. I brought one along to show you. Can I have a volunteer come and demonstrate?42. What is the speaker’s main purpose?43. What will cause an unprotected human body to explode in outer space?44. Where is the bladder of oxygen located?45. What does the speaker show the audience as she describes the main part of the space suit?46. What will probably happen next?Questions 47-50 Listen to a talk about a program sponsored by a student organization.Goo d evening. My name is Pam Jones and on behalf of the modern dance club, I’dlike to welcome you to tonight’s program. The club is pleased to present the TV version of the Catherine Wheel, Twyla Tharp’s rock ballet. This video version of the ballet has been even more successful with audiences than the original theater production. It includes some animation, slow motion and stop action phrases that really help the audience understand the dance. The title of the piece refers to Saint Catherine, who died on a Wheel in 307 AD. Nowadays, a Catherine wheal is also a kind of firework that looks something like a pinwheel. Any way, the dance is certainly full of fireworks. You’ll see how Twyla Tharp explores one family’s attempt to confront the violence in modern life. The central symbol of the work is a pineapple. But exactly what it represents has always created a lot of controversy. As you watch, see if you can figure it out.The music for this piece is full of the rhythmic energy of rock music. It was composed by David Burn of the rock band Talking Heads. And the lead dancer in this version was Sara Radnor who is perfectly suited to Tharp’s adventurous choreography. Following the video, dance teacher Mary Parker will lead the discussion about the symbolism Mr. Tharp used. We hope you can stay for that. So, enjoy tonight’s video and thank you for your support.47. What is the purpose of the talk?48. Why was the video version of the dance more successful than the theater production?49. What kind of music is the dance performed to?50. What will probably be included in the discussion after the program?。

Before we get started, I'd like to thank everyone for coming down to the lake today to help with the cleaning up project. As you probably know, we're going to be cleaning up all of the garbage here at the lake area. We'll begin by dividing into two ten-person teams, one team will pick up litter in the picnic are and jogging trail, and one will dig out garbage found in the shallow waters of the lake itself. We'll be putting the litter in these plastic trash bags. Toss any aluminum cans you find into these boxes, and we'll take them to the recycling center later.

What will David do this evening?Today, I'll be talking about the invention of the camera and photography. The camera if often thought to be a modern invention. But as early as 1727, a German physicist discovered that light darkened silver salt, a chemical compound. Using as a camera, a big box with a small hole to let the light in, he made temporary images on the salt. Silver salt is still the base of film today. Then a French scientist made the first permanent picture by using a special piece of metal sensitized with silver salt. A photography he made in 1826 still exists. The painter Dagera improved on the process by placing common. Salt, the kind we eat, on the metal. This was in 1839, the official date of the beginning of photography. But the problem was the printing of the photographs. And it wasn't until other scientists developed the kind of paper we now use that good printing was possible and photography became truly modern. In 1860's, Matthew Brady was able to take his famous pictures of the American Civil War, thus making portrait poses very popular. In the 20th century, George Eastman of the United States simplified film developing, and Edwards Land invented the so-called instant camera with self-developing film. If we say that the photography came into existence in 1839, it follows that it has taken more than one hundred years for the camera to reach its present condition of technical refinement.46. What discovery was the basis of photography?47. How was the first prominent picture made?48. What does the speaker regard as the official date of the beginning of photography?49. According to the speaker, why was Matthew Brady remembered today?50. What did Doctor Edwards Land invent?。

We’ll be seeing much of his work today. Wood was born in 1881 in Iowa farm country, and became interested in art very early in life. Although he studied art in both Minneapolis and at the Art Institute of Chicago, the strongest influences on his art were European. He spent time in both Germany and France and his study there helped shape his own stylized form of realism. When he returned to Iowa, Wood applied the stylistic realism he had learned in Europe to the rural life he saw around him and that he remembered from his childhood around the turn of the century. His portraits of farm families imitate the static formalism of photographs of early settlers posed in front of their homes. His paintings of farmers at work, and of their tools and animals, demonstrate a serious respect for the life of the Midwestern United States. By the 1930's, Wood was a leading figure of the school of art called "American regionalism." In an effort to sustain a strong Midwestern artistic movement, Wood established an institute of Midwestern art in his home state. Although the institute failed, the paintings you are about to see preserve Wood's vision of pioneer farmers....以上就是整理的“老托福听力93篇下载(文本+翻译)”,希望通过这些听力真题的练习,能够帮助大家更好的来备考托福考试 !相关字搜索:老托福听力93篇。

Why doesn't the man accept the woman's offer?Part CQuestions 40-42 Listen to part of a talk in an architecture class.Today, we are going to take a look at the development of the skyscraper. We'll start with some buildings in Chicago. One of the circumstances that led Chicago to become home to some of the buildings now considered the prototypes for later skyscrapers was this: In 1871, there was a great fire that destroyed much of the city. It was that tragic fire that cleared the way for a new kind of city that used the new building techniques and new materials developed during the early 1800s.One of these new structures was the Home Insurance Building, completed in 1885. It was ten storeys high. Now granted, that's no higher than some of the early skyscrapers in New York City. What made Chicago's Home Insurance Building important is that it had true skyscraper instruction with an internal metal skeleton that carried the weight of the brickexterior. This metal-support system along with the earlier development of the elevator were the two innovations that made the later very tall industrial buildings possible.Chicago's Reliance Building was another important building in the development of the skyscraper. It showed the architects' understanding of the possibilities of mental frame construction by eliminating walls and opening up the sides as a glass box. It was the first expression of the skyscraper as the glass shelf framed in the metal grid.40. Why does the professor mention the fire of 1871?41. What was important about the Home Insurance Building?42. What point does the professor make about the Reliance Building?Questions 43-46 Listen to a lecture given in a mass communications class.It was an Italian inventor who created the first wireless device for setting out radio signalsin 1895. But not until the American inventor Lee De Forest built the first amplifying vacuumtube in 1906 did we get the first radio as we know it. And the first actual radio broadcast wasmade on Christmas Eve of 1906. That's when someone working from anexperimentalstation in Brand Rock, Massachusetts, arranged the program with two short musicalselections of poem and brief holiday greeting. The broadcast was heard by wirelessoperators on ships with a radio through several hundreds miles. The following year, DeForest began regular radio broadcasts in New York. These programs were similar to muchwhat we hear on radio today. In that, De Forest played only music. But because there werestill no home radio receivers, De Forest's audiences consisted only of wireless operators onships in New York Harbor. There is no doubt that radio broadcasting was quite a novelty inthose days, but it took a while to catch on commercially. Why? Hmm, for the simple factthat only a few people, in fact, only those who tinkered with wireless telegraphs as a hobbyowned receivers. It wasn't until the 1920s that someone envisioned mass appeal for radio.This was radio pioneer David Sarnoff who predicted that one day there would be a radioreceiver in every home.43. What is the talk mainly about?44. Why were early radio broadcasts heard by such a small audience?45. According to the talk, who owned the receivers in the early days of radio?46. According to the talk, what did David Sarnoff predict about radios?Questions 47-50 Listen to part of a talk in an astronomy classThe origin of Earth's moon, the largest moon in the solar system, is still something of amystery. There are some theories about its origin however. Now, keep in mind that a theoryof the moon's origin has to be consistent with two important facts. The first fact is that theEarth contains a lot of iron, most of it has an iron core. But the moon contains practically noiron. The second fact is that other than the difference in iron content, the moon and Earth arecomposed of accentually the same minerals, a similarity not shared with any other planet ormoon in our solar system.One of the earliest theories of the moon's origin, I called it the Capture Theory, proposes that the moon was somehow captured by Earth's gravitational force. This theory is improbable, however, because it assumes that the moon and Earth formed in different parts of the solar system. If this was true you would expect the moon's composition to be much different from Earth's composition, just as all the other planets in the solar system are so different from Earth.A second theory of the moon's origin is morepromising. It is sometimes referred to as the Mars Theory, because according to this theory, when Earth was still molten, it was struck by a planet about the size of Mars. The impact caused the cores of the two planets to melt together and chunks of Earth's crust to be thrown out into space. These chunks came together to form the moon. Now, remember, Earth's crust is low in iron, because the iron is in Earth's core, but high in various other minerals. This then accounts for why there is little iron but lots of other minerals on the moon.47. What is the talk mainly about?48. According to the professor, what characteristic of Earth's moon should a theory of its origin be able to explain?49. Why is the second theory sometimes referred to as the Mars Theory?50. According to the Mars Theory, why does the moon contain little iron?。

Questions 39-42, listen to a talk given to students about recycling trash.
Thank you all for coming today to hear about the new recycling program on campus. Right now all recycling is voluntary, but in the near future it will be most likely mandatory. The recycling we've planned is really a 3-part program: sorting, collecting and distributing. The first part, sorting, is the hardest to get people to do. Most people don't like to take the time to separate their trash. And this is usually where most recycling programs fail. However, we are determined to make ours work. Instead of seeing the usual brown trash cans all over the campus, from now on you'll see four different colors of trash cans. Pink thrash cans are for paper, green cans are for glass, maroon ones are for metal and white ones are for other wastes. Just remember, pink: paper; green: glass; maroon: metal; white: waste. After the trash is sorted, they need to be collected and them distributed to the correct recycling facilities. That's where all of you come in. Since this program's still a volunteer program, we're asking our students to give a little of their time to the project, probably no more than 6 hours per person each week. And again, your job is to collect the sorted trash and take it to different centers for each type of trash. If you are willing to help us with the program by giving 6 hours a week, please write your name and phone number on this note pad.

I assume everyone here is a sophomore, since this is the Nursing Department second-year physiology course. If you are first-year nursing students, please see me after class about transferring into introductory course. Okay, I'd like to begin my first lecture by introducing two important terms, vitalism versus mechanism. How many of you have heard of these terms? Oh, I see some of you have. Well, vitalism and mechanism are two completelyopposite approaches to human physiology. According to the vitalist, the laws of physics and chemistry alone can not explain the processes of life. To the vitalist, there is a so-called vital force, and this vital force is totally separate from that of energy. As you may have guessed, vitalism is a kind of philosophical approach. Mechanism, on the other hand, is the view that all life phenomena, no matter how complex, can be explained according to chemical and physical laws. Since we can support mechanism through scientific experimentation, the modern scientist tends to be a mechanist. But vitalism is not totally dismissed, especially in fields such as brain physiology, where terms such as human consciousness haven't been defined yet in physic-chemical terms.I recently read an interesting article dealt with this very question. Is the mind separate from brain, or is the mind only the chemical and physiological workings of the brain? I'd like to continue with this next time, so that we can speak in more detail. I have some copies of that article. And I want you to take it with you and read it for next week.36. For whom is the lecture intended?37. When is this lecture given?38.

I'm thinking of taking your course in acrylic painting, and I'm calling to find more about it.W: Have you ever worked with acrylic paints?M: I've done very little painting at all. I'm a chemistry major, but I enjoy drawing and the course description says that any student can sign up. I assume that means that experience inpainting isn't necessary.W: Yes, that's right. We'll be using acrylic paints instead of oils because they are easier to handle and dry more quickly. Also, beginning students can get a good feel for what they can do with textures by working with acrylic paints.M: My roommate is also a chemistry major but he has painted quite a bit. If he signed up for the course, would he find it too easy?W: No, he could work on using techniques he already knows and applying them to principles of composition, color and design. There's something for everyone in this course.M: One more question: Do we need to bring our own brushes and paints to class?W: Yes, you can buy them at the bookstore. I'll provide drawing board and any other supplies that's necessary. I hope you decide to join us.M: It sounds interesting, I'll definitely register today.W: Fine.

The research project will count for 20%, and the mid-tern 30%. I'll be in my office almost all day on Tuesday next week. If you run into any problems, please fell free to stop in. Good luck with your studying, and I'll see you on Thursday.46. When will the exam take place?47. What should the students bring with them to the exam?48. What will be format of the exam?49.

Two scientists working for a firm in Annahine, California developed a new method to eliminate insects without using dangerous chemicals. The new poison: hot air. The basic idea is that insect pests cannot adjust to temperatures much above normal. In laboratory experiments, cockroaches and termites can't survive much more than a quarter of an hour at 100 degrees. Ferenhite or about fifty degrees Certigrade. The new method involves covering a house with a huge tent, and filling it with air heated to around 65 degrees Certigrade. Hot air is forced in with fans and the tent keeps the heat inside the house. Since termites must be continued for four to six hours. But when it's all over and the insects are dead, there is no toxic residues to endanger humans or pets, and no funny smells. Scientists claim that there's no danger of fire either. Since very few household materials will burn at 65 degrees Certigrade. In fact, wood is prepared for construction use by drying in the ovens at 80 degrees Certigrade, which is substancially hotter.43. What is the program about?44. What makes the new system better than other treatments?45. Why are the houses covered with tents?46. Why does the announcer mention that construction wood is dried by heat?Question 47-50M: Math Department, Doctor Webster speaking.W: Hello, Prof. Webster, this is Janet Hill calling, I'm living two doors down from your teaching assistant, Don Williams.

Is there anything I can do for him?W: Well, he has a class this afternoon from two-thirty to four and he won't be able to teach it, but he doesn't want to cancel it either.M: Want me to try to find somebody else to teach the class?W: No, not exactly. What he wants to do is to get someone go in for him, just to pass back the mid-term exams. He's already marked tem and they are on the desk in his office. The whole thing wouldn't take more than ten minutes.M: His classes are two-thirty, eh? Well I'm afraid at that time I was going to be on campus anyway; so I could do it for him. What room is his class in?W: Cader Hall, room two-fourteen. Will you need his office key to get the exams? He's given it to me and I could bring it to you.M: Actually, that won't be necessary. We have a master key in the maths department. So I can get into his office.W: Thank you very much, Prof. Webster. Don doesn't have another class to teach until Thursday, and hopefully, he will be able to talk by then. He'll call you as soon as he can. Oh, yes, I almost forgot. Could you put the next assignment on the board, too. It's all the problems on page forty-five, and they are due at the next class.47. What is Don's problem?48.
