As the world has 17 , however, the word has expanded to 18 many different meanings. “Cool” can be used to express feelings of 19 in almost anything. When you see a brand-name car in the street, maybe you can’t help 20 , “It’s cool.” You might think, “He’s so cool,” when you see your 21 footballer. We all enlarge the meaning of “cool”.

On one student’s paper was just the one 25 , “It’s so cool.” 26 he thought it was 27 to describe 28 he saw and felt. 29 the story also proves the shortage of words and expressions. 30 “cool,” some people have no words to express the same meaning. So it is 31 to improve our word strength to maintain some 32 . As a popular word, “cool” stands for a kind of special 33 that people can accept easily.

公共英语二级考试听力The Public English Test System (PETS) Level 2 listening examination is a critical component of the certification process for non-native English speakers in China. It assesses the ability to understand spoken English in various contexts and is a requirement for many who wish to pursue higher education or professional opportunities where English proficiency is necessary.Listening comprehension is not merely about understanding words and phrases; it's about grasping the context, the speaker's intent, and the subtle nuances that are conveyed through tone, emphasis, and inflection. To excel in the PETS Level 2 listening exam, one must develop a keen ear for English, attuned not only to the language's rhythm and melody but also to its cultural underpinnings.The exam typically includes several types of listening tasks. These may range from short conversations and announcements to longer lectures or discussions. Test-takers are required to listen carefully and answer a series of questions that measure their understanding of the content, the speaker's attitude, and the implied meanings.One effective strategy for improving listening skills is to immerse oneself in the language. This can be achieved by listening to English-language media such as podcasts, news broadcasts, and movies. It's beneficial to choose material that covers a wide range of topics and includes different accents and dialects. Regular practice with such diverse resources can significantly enhance one's ability to understand spoken English in various contexts.Another key aspect of preparation is familiarizing oneself with the exam format. The PETS Level 2 listening section is known for its practical approach, often incorporating real-life scenarios that one might encounter in an English-speaking environment. Therefore, understanding the common themes and situations presented in the exam can give test-takers an advantage.During the exam, it's crucial to stay focused and manage one's time efficiently. Test-takers should carefully read the questions before listening to the audio clips, as this will help them identify the specific information they need to listen for. It's also important to note that the audio is only played once, so concentration is paramount.In conclusion, the PETS Level 2 listening exam is a comprehensive test of one's ability to understand spoken English. Success in this exam requires a combination of regular practice, strategic preparation, and focused attention during the test. By honing their listening skills and familiarizing themselves with the exam's structure, test-takers can increase their chances of achieving a high score, which can open doors to numerous academic and professional opportunities. With dedication and the right approach, mastering the PETS Level 2 listening exam is an attainable goal for all aspiring English speakers.。

One step is to make sure that the house seems a lived-in one. Living room curtains should be pulled down only half-way. Bedrooms that usually have the curtains pulled down at night should be left down . Another is to make sure that all outside locks are the dead-bolt type (双保险) . Still another is to leave several 100W lights burning and make sure that one is in the kitchen. Lights that turned on and off by themselves are the best. Then, too, it is a good idea to leave the radio turned on and setto a talking station. Any type of speaking makes a thief think twice before trying to enter. Finally, while away on holiday, make sure that nothing collects in front or in the house. Particularly, make certain that the newspaper is stopped and thata trusted neighbour has been asked to pick up the mail. Thieves are especially quick to notice piled-up newspapers and overpiled mail boxes.36. Why did the writer begin this piece with question?A. Because he wanted to catch the readers' attention.B. Because he wanted to have the readers guess the answer before reading.C. Because he wanted to sum up (概括) the topic of the piece.D. Because he wanted to make the readers understand him better.37. The word "live-in" in this passage means ______________.A. left emptyB. lively and cheerfulC. now being used by peopleD. laid inside38. What does the writer advise the people to do?A. Ask a neighbour to pick up the daily mailB. Make sure to have lights that turn on and off by themselves.C. Make sure the newspaper is handed over every day.D. Pull the living room curtains down.39. The most important room to leave a light burning in is the _________.A. bedroomB. kitchenC. living roomD. sitting-room( B )Mr Richards has worked in a small seaside town for about ten years and he and his wife have a comfortable house near the sea.During the winter they would be quite happy, but every summer a lot of their relatives used to spend holiday in their house , and it was much cheaper than staying in hotel . Finally one day in June Mr Richards complained to a clever friend of his who lived in the same place. "One of my wife's cousins is going to bring her husband and children and spend ten days with us next month again. How have you prevented all your relatives from coming to live with you in summer ?" "Oh,"the friend answered, "that is not difficult. I just borrow money from all the rich ones, and lend it to all the poor ones. After that,they seldom come again." Hearing this Mr Richards smiled.40. The relatives preferred to stay in Mr Richards' house because _____________.A. it was cool in summerB. they might spend less moneyC. they were more welcomeD. it was a comfortable place41. According to his friend's opinion, the poor relatives would stop going there so oftenbecause ________ .A. they were shy to borrow money againB. hey were afraid to be asked to pay off the debtsC. they had been ill-treatedD. it wasn't happy for the poor to meet the rich42. The best title for this passage is ___________.A. Such a Clever FriendB. Mr Richards and his FriendC. Money is ImportantD. Such Good Usage of Money43. After reading the passage we can infer _____________.A. Mr Richards still complains about the coming of his relatives in summerB. The friend of Mr Richards' hadn't as many relatives as RichardsC. Gradually Mr Richards succeeded in keeping his relatives out in summerD. sNone of Richards' relatives came to the seaside town for their holidays again( C )I wonder why American towns looks so much alike that I sometimes mix them up in my memory. The standard influence(影响)of massproduction whose agents(代理商)are the travellingsalesman, the mail-order house, the five-and-ten cent stores, the chain stores, the movies can hardly explain it. If you stay two days in Bologna and in Ferrare, or in Arles and in Avignon, you will never mix them up in all your life. But it may well happen that after you spend two days in St.Louis and in Kansas City the appearances of these two cities soon mix up. I think the reason for this is that these towns have not yet had time enough to develop their own characters. Similarly, children are much less different from each other than grown people.44. Which two of the following towns look so much alike?A. Bologna and FerrareB. Arles and AvignonC. St. Louis and Kansas CityD. Bologna and St. Louis45. In line 4 the word "it" refers to ____________.A. standard of townsB. similarity of townsC. people's memoryD. mass production46. American towns look very much alike because of ____________.A. the standard influence of mass productionB. their different appearancesC. not being fully developedD. having everything in common( D )Millions of stars are travelling about in space. A few form groups which journey together, but most of them travel alone.And they travel through a universe so large that one star seldom comes near to another. For the most part each star makes its journey in complete loneliness, like a ship on an empty ocean. The ship will be well over a million miles from its nearest neighbor. From this it is easy to understand why a star seldom finds another anywhere neat it.We believe, however, that some two thousand million years ago, another star wandering(漫游) through space, happened to comenear our sun, Just as the sun and the moon raise tides(潮汐)on the earth, so this star must have raised tides on the surface of the sun .But they were very different from the small tides that are raised in our oceans; a large tidal wavemust have travelled over the surface of the sun, at last forming a mountain so high that we cannot imagine it. As the cause of the disturbance(动荡) came nearer, so the mountain rose higher and higher. And before the star began to move away again,its tidal pull had become so powerful that this mountain was torn to pieces and threw off small parts of itself into space. These small pieces have been going round the sun ever since. They are the planets(⾏星).47. Millions of stars are _______________.A. following a regular path in spaceB. moving about without a fixed courseC. seldom wandering about in the universeD. always travelling together48. Some two thousand million years ago, the mountain on the sun was raised probably because__________.A. a large tidal wave of a star travelled over the surface of the sunB. another star happened to come near the sunC. the sun and the moon raised the tides on the earthD. the star moved away from the sun49. The article suggests that _____________ .A. our earth exists before the sunB. how space formedC. no one knows where the earth comes fromD. our earth used to be a high mountain on the sun50. The expression "the cause of the disturbance" refers to _________.A. the large tidal waveB. the powerful tidal pullC. the star coming near the sunD. one of the sun's planets51. In this article, the writer mainly wants to tell the readers __________.A. that the universe is so large that we cannot imagine itB. how the high mountains were formed on the sunC. why the tides over the surface of the sun were so powerfulD. where the planets in the universe came from( E )Contacts(交往) between Japan and the rest of the world have grown a great deal in the twentieth century. In the last thirty years, business contacts between Japan and the West have become very important. Many foreign companies now have offices inJapan and Japanese businessmen do business around the world.Differences between Japanese and Western ways of doing business, however, often bewilder the foreign businessman and makedoing business in Japan difficult for foreigners.The American businessman, for example , wants of start talking business immediately . He wants quick decisions. He does notwait. The Japanese, on the other hand , likes to arrive at decisions gradually after giving them a great deal of thought. Another thing foreign businessmen have difficulty in understanding is when a Japanese means "Yes" or "No". This is becauseof cultural difference for a J a p a n e s e t o s a y " N o " d i r e c t l y . b r > I n E n g l i s h , i t i s e a s y t o s a y " N o " t o s o m e t h i n g w e d o n o t w a n t t o d o .

"We slept in our car for about a week," she said, "but then it was sold. "As she moved from one friend' s house to another, Carr began working toward a high-school-equivalence diploma(高中同等学历证书), listening to self-help tapes and making cheesecakes.After developing some new methods which she thought were pretty good, she offered her cakes to a restaurant. They sold out in a matter of hours.The following year, she met a man at a church service and before long, they married. Carr began selling the cheesecakes out of their home. Later she opened a cheesecake company. As business became better and better, Carr didn't forget where she came from.All the women she hires are mothers or high-school dropouts(退学者)--workers most other employers wouldn' t like to hire. Her dozen workers make 100 to 150 cakes a week and Carr owes her success to her employees. She says, "We're going to have a learning center and a day-care center in the company. Part of the workday will be spent studying for high-school-equivalence diplomas. "Recently, a 33-year-old woman with three children to raise was referred to Cart. She hired her at once. “It has been a real blessing (恩赐), ” the woman said.56. The text suggests that Lynn Carr[ A ] had to sell her car for a new one[ B ] had few friends to turn to for help[ C ] was once a school dropout herself[ D ] didn't work hard enough to keep her job57. Which of the following can be learned from the text?[ A ] People like Lynn Carr' s cheesecakes very much.[ B ] Lynn Carr' s cheesecakes are sold to high school dropouts.[ C ] Lynn Cart learned to make cheesecakes by taking courses.[ D ] Without finishing high school, one cannot even make good cakes.58. "Carr didn' t forget where she came from" (line 3, paragraph 3 ) means that Carr_______[ A ] remembered what she used to be[ B ] kept in mind her friends who had once helped her[ C ] would not forget where her hometown was[ D ] remembered all the places she had been to59. According to the last two paragraphs, Lynn Carr is trying[ A ] to turn her home into a learning center[ B ] to hire more moms and high school dropouts[ C ] to develop more new methods to make better cakes[ D ]1 to help people who have the familiar background as she did BThe banana "tree" is actually not a real tree. This is because there is no wood in the stem(树干) rising above the ground. The stem is made up of leaves growing very close together, one in-side the other. The leaves spread out at the top of the stem and rise in the air, Banana plants need a lot of care and attention. They must be provided with water if the normal rainfall doesn't supply enough. The area around the plants must be kept free of weeds(杂草) and grass.About nine or ten months after planting, a flower appears on the banana plant. This flower is at the end of a long stalk(茎), which grows from the base up through the center of the stem and turns downward when it comes out from the top. Small bananas form on this flower stalk as it grows downward. Bananas really grow upside down. As the small bananas form on the stalk, they point downward, but as they grow they turn and point upward.Bananas are harvested while they are still green, Even when they are to be eaten where they are grown, they are not allowed to ripen on the plant. A banana that turns yellow on the plant loses its taste."60. The first paragraph in the text mainly discusses_______________.[ A ] why the stem of the tree is wood[ B ] how the banana grows on the stem[ C ] why the banana tree is not a tree[ D ] how the leaves grow out of the stem61. The underlined word "it" ( line 3, paragraph 3) in the third paragraph refers to__________.[ A ] the leaf [ B ] the stalk [ C ] the stem [ D ]the plant62. According to the text, where do bananas actually grow ?[ A ] On the stem.[ B ] On the leaves.[ C ] On the flower stalk.[ D ] On the base of the stem.63. From the text we know when bananas are harvested, they are_____________.[ A ] green and pointing upward[ B ] yellow and pointing downward[ C ] green and pointing downward[ D ] yellow and pointing upwardCEveryone wants the best for a baby. A mother wants her baby to have the best in the way of food, toys, clothing and equipment. Her value judgements on prices may go wrong when it comes to buying for a baby, particularly the first one. Factory producers and advertisers(广告商) recognize this, and exploit it to the full. Far more is spent in buying push-chairs, special milk, and special powders for small babies than is necessary.The child himself watches television, a particularly strong influence ( 影响) on Small children. Looking at them as they watch television, and then watching them react to products afterwards, suggests that young children accept the television advertisements as well as the guidance offered by children' s programmes , and find both equally attractive. The child comes early in life to the feeling widespread in this country that if something is said on television it must be true.For this reason much Christmas gift advertising, and advertising for sweets, food and washing powders, is specially designed for children because of the effect their repeated nagging can have on their mothers. By exercising in this way they become consumers (消费者) at an early ageand as a result, with present-day pressures, choosing and buying goods and services will remain an important part of their future lives64. According to the writer, a mother spends more than necessary on___________.[ A ] Christmas advertising[ B ] special powders[ C ] television[ D ] sweets65. The underlined word "nagging" most probably means____________.[ A ] repeated demands[ B ] baby powders[ C ] TV services[ D ] children' s programmes66. Which of the following statements is best supported by the text?[ A ] Children like both TV advertisements and children' s programmes.[ B ] TV programmes often advertise the best products for children.[ C ] Mothers encourage children to buy products advertised on TV.[ D ] TV advertisements provide the best advice to choose gifts.67. The best title for the text could be____________.[ A ] Mothers and babies[ B ] Children as consumers[ C ] Giving the best to babies[ D ] Choosing goods for childrenDThe number of people in the world is growing. By the year 2,000 world population is expected to grow to 6.2 billion. The fastest growth is in developing countries, where there is already a shortage(短缺) of food, housing, and jobs. Africa is the fastest-growing part of the world. In Kenya, for example, the population will increase 10 times in the next 80 years.In Asia, a few countries have begun to reduce their population growth slowly, china still makes up about 21% of the world's population, butit has greatly slowed down its rate(速度) of growth. It is now growing at a rate of only 0.8% per year. In India, however, the population continues to grow, and it is expected to be even larger than the Chinese population by the year 2040.The population in India is growing three times faster than in Australia, Japan, and the developed countries in Europe. In fact, European people are more worried about population decrease(减少)than increase. Eastern European countries are growing at a rate of only about 1%.The best news is that, in general, population growth has slowed down from 2.08% in 1970 to 1.6% in 1985. At the present rate, the earliest that the world could reach zero population growth is 2040. At that time, there will probably be about 8 billion people in the world. It is possible, though, that the population might not really stop growing until much later. With people living longer, the number of elderly will have grown by 15% by that time. Nearly half of the world' s population will be living in cities. This is a situation that could cause a long list of other problems including pollution and a lack of food, water, housing, and jobs.68. Which of the following is the best title for the text?[ A ] Decrease of World Population[ B ] Population Growth Has Stopped[ C ] World Population?DA Look Into the Future[ D ] China' s Population?DOne Fifth of the World Population69. Among all the countries mentioned in the text, the one with the highest growth rate is_______.[ A ] India[ B ] China[ C ] Japan[ D ] Kenya70. People in European countries are more concerned about the fact that__________.[ A ] they do not have enough jobs for people[ B ] many people from the countryside come to live in the cities [ C ] the population in developing countries is not decreasing[ D ] their populations are falling71. Which of the following facts is best supported by the text?[ A ] There will be a number of problems in cities in the future.[ B ] The world population will stop growing in 2040.[ C ] 15 percent of the world population will be elderly people.[ D ] Kenya will have the biggest population in the world.EFILM PREVIEWSIn the Line of FireAfter his Oscar success as an aging cowboy in Unforgotten, Clint Eastwood plays an aging secret-service man in this action movie.

When a madman, played by John Malkovich , says that he will kill the present President. Horrigan is given the chance to redeem himself.Sleepless in SeattleA very interesting film from Nora Ephron , the writer-director of When Harry Met Sally.

In one box, she came across a magazine of June 2, 1986.There's a reason Christine had saved the magazine for 20 years. In its pages, she was one of more than a dozen women reported in an article discussing the "cruel reality" of their poor marriage prospects (前景). At the time Christine was living in Chicago and greatly annoyed by the fact that her social life didn't seem to beprogressing toward a trip down the aisle. "I had a lot of girlfriends in the same boat," she says.But a funny thing happened. At age 40, she married; a few weeks ago she and her husband celebrated their 10th anniversary (周年纪念). Today she' s the happy mom to two children from her husband's first marriage. Looking back on her single days, she remembers her unhappiness. "I had the same feeling that many women have, which is that you're not considered a whole person unless you're married with children," she says. "But as I reached my 40s, I realized that was totally wrong ... I could still have a very fulfilling life. " It was only after she' d come to peace with the fact that she might never marry that she met her future husband while shopping in a supermarket.To mark the 20th anniversary of this story, reporters sought out as many of the women in the story as they could find. Out of 14 single women in the article, 11 were found. Among them, 吨ht ended up marrying, and three remain single. Several had children. None divorced(离婚) . For her part, Christine isn't surprised. "I've watched a lot of people, married while young, get divorced," she says. "I think that if you do wait until Mr. Right comes along, you have a much better chance. "36. How old was Christine 20 years ago?A 20B 30C 40D 5037. We learn from the text that twenty years ago, ChristineA started her hobby by collecting magazinesB had a lot of girlfriends visiting herC was worried about her marriageD was in an unhappy marriage38. Why had Christine saved the magazine for so many years?A An article about her was printed in iB It described her social life in ChicagC An article written by her was published in iD It helped women like her to find their MRigh39. The underlined phrase "a trip down the aisle" (line 5, Para. 2) probably means___.A getting marriedB becoming famousC travelling by planeD going on a honeymoon40. What was Christine's idea about marriage and life when she was going on 40?A One cannot be a whole person without marriage and childreB One can live a happy life whether married or unmarrieC She might meet her future husband in a supermarkeD She will never think of divorce once marrieBArt Without LimitArt should not be limited to a museum. "Art and creative elements (创造性元素) can be mixed into daily life," said Professor Cheng of the Fine Arts Department.Public art can be seen as a realization of Professor Cheng's words above. It is simply artwork presented in the public space, where one could walk by any day. Connie Yu, a businesswoman, likes the idea of public art. "I like the idea of bringing art to people, rather than people to art. " However, the idea of public art is not very well developed in Hong Kong. A walk through the central area only presents one with a limited number of public art pieces. Most of them seem to be more for the purpose of decoration (装饰) than presenting art to the public. Also, people do not pay much attention to them.Alex Chan, a 34-year-old Hong Kong artist, said, "Public art is a great way to express yourself as an artist, to give something to people who don't normally go to the museums, and to give them a break from their daily life. It is just a shame that it’s not so common in Hong Kong. "41. What is "public art" according to the text?A Fine art pieces in museumB Art exhibitions for the artist.C Artwork by ordinary peoplD Art pieces in public place42. Which of the-following best explains Connie Yu's words?A Art piece should be sold at low priceB Art pieces should be brought to peoplC People should be persuaded to come to the museumD More artwork about ordinary people should be produce43. According to the author, public art in Hong KongA is warmly received by artistsB has attracted the museum-goersC has much room for improvementD is strongly supported by the governmentCIf you could give anything in the world to your child, you might want to give a love of words. Young children who can express their feelings don't have as many temper tantrums (发脾气). They also learn to control themselves using words. A two -year -old child reaches toward the oven (烤箱) door, then stops, tells herself, "Hot, hot," and turns away. Researchers call this " self -directed speech". It' s one of the ways children learn to do what' s right and not to do what's wrong.With each new word, a child gains a broader view of the world. Early on, all four -legged animals are dogs or maybe cats. But new words change them into horses, cows, elephants, and zebras. Children who have a wealth of words have a wealth of ideas.By age four, the number of words a child understands tells us how easily that a child will learn to read in school. It even tells us how well she'll be able tounderstand what she reads, and to express her ideas in writing later on.So, how do you give your child this wonderful gift? First of all, talk a lot. Talk when you're feeding or preparing a bottle; talk when you're doing the dishes or walking down the street. Second, do a lot of listening. Even before your child can speak clearly, ask questions and listen for answers. Assume(设想) that your child has ideas, and try to figure out what they are. Researchers have found a direct connection between the number of words a child knows and the number of words he hears, and especially the number of questions he is invited to answer.Third, read aloud every day. There are many reasons for reading aloud, but maybe the best is that books contain words; lots of new, different, interestil1g words. Here's an exciting thing that happens when you read aloud every day: You begin to hear "book words" in your child's speech. You're walking down the street, and you see a pretty flower. "Look," you say, "a pretty flower. " "Actually," your child corrects, "it's beautiful." Actually? Beautiful? That's when you know you've truly given your child a love of words.44. A two-year-old child uses the word" Hot, hot" (line 4-5, Para.I)A to prevent herself from being hurtB to learn a new wordC to warn her parents of the dangerD to show her large collection of words45. In the author's opinion, who should do a lot of listening?A The book writersB The researchersC The parentsD The child46. What is the main subject discussed in the text?A Value of reading aloud ωchildrenB Power of words in children's growthC Mind development of young childrenD Ways to develop a love of reading in children47. When the child uses "beautiful" to respond to the mother, it shows thatA the child loves certain words better than othersB the word "beautiful" is used more by childrenC reading has improved the child's languageD the child has the ability to correct parents 来源:考题大-公共英语考题DThey first arrived on British ships almost 200 years ago, with the aim of cutting back a rapid growth of rat (鼠) population. Then the cats themselves became the problem. After dealing with the rats", they turned to birds-and now hundreds of them have been killed in a move to protect rare (稀有) birds. Even cat lovers have been persuaded to back the move, after being told that there was no other choice.When British sailors took control of Ascension Island in 1815, they found nobody living on it but that it was overrun with rats which had escaped from sinking ships. They introduced cats to kill the rats-and were soon overrun by cats. By 1820 theywere sending back to England for dogs to kill the cats, but that didn' t work. Ever since the wild cat population has been attacking the birds.Man introduced these cats, and it has disturbed the balance. Ascension Island is a most important seabird gathering place. We have to undo man' s mistake in bringing cats here. Action has been taken to kill off wild cats for the protection of birds. Only cats raised as pets are allowed. Since they are micro-chipped (加电子芯片的), if they get caught they can be sent back to their owner. The action can be considered rather successful. The cat population is down to the last few-they're the most difficult ones to catch.48. The best title for the text would be _______.A Killing Cats to Save RatsB Problems with Shipping CatsC Fighting between Cats and RatsD Keeping the Rat Population Down49. Which of the following fust came to the island?A The catsB The ratsC The sailorsD The birds50. People on the island have been taking action to ________.A forbid having cats as petsB stop the killing of birdsC catch and kill all the catsD send all cats back to England51. What does the author mean by saying, "We have to undo man' s mistake in bringing cats here" (Paragraph 3 ) ?A Friendly animals such as dogs should have been introduceB Men should remove the bad effect caused by catC Man should have a better understanding of catD Cats are not as valuable as other rare animalEThe Petronas Twin Towers in Kuala Lumpur in Malaysia were completed in 1998.

However, experts expect the tower to have 162 floors and go up to 808 meters high. Its lifts will be the fastest in the world, traveling at 18 meters per second.
