D2. B3. D4. A5. B6. C7. C8. DTapescript:This year I decided to do something to regain my reputation as a kindly uncle. My nephew, Tony, had never forgiven me for the dictionary I had bought him as a birthday present last year. His parents had no reason to be grateful to me either ?because theyear before, I had presented their dear son with a pot of paste* and some funnypictures .Instead of sticking* them into a book, Tony had naturally covered every wall inthe house with them. This year, therefore, I decided to let him choose for himself.We went into a big toy shop but Tony was highly critical of everything he saw. Invain* did I show him toy after toy; he was not to be tempted*. Then I saw his eyeslight up: he had discovered something he really did approve of: a large tin drum. Iwas quite pleased, too, until I thought what Tony's mother would say when she saw it.Nobody would get any sleep for weeks. I led Tony away quickly, saying that the drumwas too expensive. If that was how I felt, Tony replied jokingly, then I could buy himthe big model railway in the shop window. Now that was really expensive, so I quicklychanged the subject.Tony asked for permission to go off on his ownand I made the most of my opportunity to sit down and rest my aching feet. Fifteen minutes passed but therewas still no sign of Tony. I began to get worried and got up to look for him, I asked ayoung lady if she had seen a little boy in a grey suit. She looked about her helplesslyand pointed out that there were so many littleboys in grey suits. I was just beginningto despair*, when I saw a strange figure dressed in peculiar purple* clothes. Thefigure was wearing a false beard and a cave man's* axe* in one hand, and a spacegun in the other. It was, of course, Tony, who informed me at once that he was thefirst cave man to fly into space.Part 2 Oral WorkIn a recent broadcast, I heard a woman say that she felt guilty because she spent------￡20 at an auction sale. She was afraid her husband might accuse her of being extravagant. I find this attitude difficult to understand, for, obviously a married womanhas as much right to spend 20 as ￡her husband. Sometimes both husband and wifego out to work. But, in a case where the womanstays at home to look after thechildren, it is still unfair that she should feel guilty about spending a small sum ofmoney on herself.Exercise: Listen to the passage and then give your opinion on the following topic.Do you agree with the speaker that the woman's attitude is wrong?Part 3 Video Mars Rover: “A Mars Scientist's Dream Machine”1.What's the name of the Mars rover that was launched by the Americanspace agency in November 2011?.Curiosity”It is known as “2. Where is it supposed to land?It is supposed to land at the foot of a mountain within a deep, 150-kilometer-wide hole called Gale Crater.3.What energy is used to support the Mars rover's many activities and howlong will the power last?The nuclear reactor supports the Mars rover's many activities and it canmaintain the operation of the rover for about two Earth years/one Martian year.4. What are the tasks of the Mars rover?They are: 1) collecting sample rocks and soil on Mars; 2) measuring the chemical make-up of rocks and soil; 3) looking for any organic material thatmight be present and the habitable environment for microorganisms.5. Give a brief description of the new rover.The new rover is a car-sized vehicle—much larger than the early ones. Itcontains a plutonium-fueled nuclear reactor that will provide plenty of power forscientific activities. The vehicle also has 17 cameras, a laser and a big six-footrobotic arm. Inside the rover, there are two very capable scientific laboratories.Tapescript:The American space agency launched its MarsScience Laboratory, also knownas “Curiosity, in ”November of 2011. Thecar-sized vehicle is supposed to land onMars in August 2012. This computer model shows what scientists expect will happenwhen the spacecraft carrying Curiosity reaches the red planet. Curiosity ”is------supposed to land at the foot of a mountain within a deep, 150-kilometer-wide hole calledGale Crater. Deputy project scientist Ashwin Vasavada tells about“Curiosity. ”“This is a Mars scientist 's dream machine. We're so excited to have this rovergoing to Mars this year. It'sgoing to be the virtual presence for over 200 scientists aroundthe world to explore Mars and Gale Crater that we'll talk about. This rover isnot only the most technically capable rover eversent to another planet, but it 'sactually the most capable scientific explorer we' ve ever sent out.”“Curiosity ”is much larger than earlier rovers. It has a plutoni-fueledm nuclearreactor that will provide plenty of power for “Curiosity 'manys”activities. Thevehicle also has 17 cameras, and a laser that can examine the chemical make-up ofrocks.“What really dominates the design of this rover is the fact that it has this abilityto sample rocks and soils on Mars for the first time, and so it has a big six-foot [1.8meter] robotic arm. And the rover is partly that big because it holds two very capablescientific laboratories inside the rover.”One instrument measures the minerals in rocks and soil. Another looks for chemicals and any organic material that might be present. The goal of theexperiment is to learn if Mars ever had environmental conditions that could have supported microorganisms.“This mission is really about looking for those habitable environments, and notdetecting life itself.”Gale Crater will provide plentyVasavada says the mountain within ofinformation about the development of Mars. That is because each layer of rockcontains new clues.“Ithas some geologic evidence that water was around. We hope, in fact, tosearch for organics with this mission. That's another requirement for life as weknow it. ”The nuclear reactor on “Curiosity ”has enough power to operate on the surface of Mars for about two Earth years, which is the same as one Martian year.补充阅读：职业访谈与工作面试是一回事吗说起职业访谈（Informational Interview ），很多人都不清楚是什么意思。

A 3. D 4. D 5. B 6. C 7. A 8. BPart 3 NewsNew research says 35% of all child deaths worldwide are caused by under-nutrition---hunger. The Lancet,the British medical magazine, just published a series of five studies. The answer, they suggest, is greaterinvestment in nutritional services and improvements to health system.The research involved poor to middle-income countries in Africa, Asia and Latin America.Robert Black from the Bloomberg School of Public Health at Johns Hopkins University in Maryland was the lead author of the series. He says more than 3.5million mothers and children under 5die in poor countries each year because of under-nutrition.News Item 2Last week, Bill Gates retired from full-time work at the world’s biggest computer software company, Microsoft. He will remain chairman of the company he established with Paul Allen in 1975.Mr. Gates left Microsoft at a time of change in the computing industry. Early on, Microsoft understood the importance of the “network effect”. That is, software is the kind of product that increases in value as more people buy and use it.At 52 years old, Bill Gates is currently the third richest man in the world. He is worth about 58 billion dollars. Mr. Gates will now spend most of his time working at his charity organization, the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation. The foundation is the world’s largest charity with over 37 billion dollars. It providesmoney for health, education and other projects, mostly in developing countries.News Item 3The competition between Microsoft and Google took a new turn on February first. Microsoft made a public offer to buy the Internet company Y ahoo. Microsoft says the combined companies would be in a better position to compete against Google in the online services market.This week, Y ahoo rejected the offer. Its board of directors said the price undervalued the company. The offer was worth almost 45 billion dollars in cash and stock, or 31 dollars per Y ahoo share. Y ahoo is said to want 40 dollars a share.Microsoft says it offered a full and fair price. It says moving forward quickly with the deal would be in the best interest of shareholders. Y et since February first, the value of Mi crosoft’s offer has fallen to 29 dollars a share because of a drop in its stock.Microsoft thinks it could better compete against Google with Y ahoo’s expert knowledge. Microsoft could attempt a hostile takeover. But that is not the way it normally does business, and there is risk of angering Y ahoo’s employees.Section Three Oral WorkMan: Are you ready to order?Woman: Er, yes, please.

The British Theatreis world famous, and offers everything from Shakespeare to West End comedy*. There's a large number of cinemas presenting films from all over the world. Every night of the week there are concerts. Classical or pop, take your choice. And of course night clubs will be happy to take large quantifies of cash from you in return for the illusion* of being sophisticated* and perhaps slightly wicked*. When it rains (and it will rain) there are museums and art galleries to give you shelter-- and they're free! When it's fine, take a boat trip along the River Thames, downstream to Greenwich* or upstream to Hampton Court*.Y ou may be exhausted by London; you may be cheated in London; you may not be able to get a drink when you want one, thanks to the ridiculous licensing laws; you may get wet and catch a cold; but you're not likely to be bored.Exercise: Listen to the passage and choose the best answer to each of the following questions.I.C 2. A 3. D 4. B 5. D6. C7. B8. DPassage 2Health InsuranceMost full-time students at American universities must have health insurance, 12qis is because health costs in the United States are high. Colleges are not able to pay the costs if students suffer serious accidents or sickness,Many American colleges have health centers where doctors and nurses treat students' medical problems. This service may be included in the cost of attending college. Health insurance is usually needed for extra services.Students may already be protected under their parents' health insurance policies*. If not, many colleges offer their own insurance plans. For example, students at the University of Michigan in Ann Arbor are treated without charge the minor medical problems at the university health center. But the university suggests that students buy its health insurance plan. It costs about 800 dollars a year. The insurance pays [or hospital services, emergency room care and visits to doctors. It also pays for laboratory tests and x rays. And it pays ninety percent of the cost of drugs prescribed by a doctor. The plan does not pay for birth control, care of the teeth or eyeglasses. And it does not pay for preventive care such as injections* that prevent disease.Students at Boston College in Massachusetts are required to have their own health insurance plan or lo buy the college accident and sickness insurance. The college plan costs about 500 dollars a year. It pays for any medical care needed within a/line period. It does not pay for eye glasses, hearing aids*, or dental* treatment.Students can also buy independent insurance policies from insurance companies. The details of such policies are different, depending on where the student lives. Usually, these policies pay for doctor visits, treatment of injuries and hospital costs. Sometimes foreign students do not understand the need for health insurance, especially if they do net need such insurance in their own countries. However, people in the United States are responsible for their own medical costs. These can be extremely high in cases of serious illness or accidents. The purpose of health insurance is to make sure that these costs will be paid for.Exercise A: Listen to the report and complete the following sentences. 1. Students at American universities must have healthinsurance, because health costs in the United States are high.2. Many American colleges have health centers where minor medical problems can be treated.3. The University of Michigan in Ann Arbor offers its health insurance plan that costs about $800 a year.4. Boston College in Massachusetts suggests the students buy the college accident and sickness insurance that costs about $500 a year.Exercise B: Listen to the report again and put a tick beside the item that the insurance pays for and put a cross beside the one that the insurance doesn't pay for.hospital services √ birth control Xlabora tory tests √ x-rays √drugs prescribed by a doctor √ hearing aids Xeyeglasses X emergency room care √dental treatment X doctor visits √PART 2 Oral WorkFrances Whithread lived in children's homes until she was 13 because hermother was unable to look after her.When Frances was 12 she took part in a game of netball. The referee, whose name was Margaret Whitbread, noticed the young girl because she argued with so many of her decisions. A few weeks later they met again at a local sports ground. Frances asked Margaret to show her how to throw the javelin and Margaret soon discovered that although Frances was a difficult child, she was a very promising young athlete.When Frances was 13, the Whitbreads adopted her. Family life suited Frances and as she became bigger and stronger, her javelin throwing improved until she became one of Britain's topathletes.Exercise: Listen to the passage and then give your opinion on the following topics.1. What difference would it have made if Frances had not met the Whitbreads?2. Do you agree that sometimes it pays to argue?。

You know I was born in Lausanne*, Switzerland; myfather was Swiss-French Swiss and my mother was American,so, of course, we spoke both languages at home and I grew upbilingual. Then, of course, I learnt German at school - inSwitzerland that's normal. And because I was already fluent inEnglish, my second language at school was Italian. So I had areal head start (有利的开端)!Interviewer: So that's ... one, two, three, four - you had learnt four languages by the time you left school? How fluent were you? Suzanne: Urn, I was native speaker standard in French and English, butI'd become a bit rusty* in German and my Italian was onlyschool standard. I decided the best option was to study in theUK, and I did Hispanic Studies at university, studying Spanishand Portuguese, with some Italian, and living in Manchester.Then I went to live in Brazil for two years, teaching English. Interviewer: So by this time you must have been fluent in six languages? Suzanne: Nearly. My Italian wasn't perfect, but I had a boyfriend from Uruguay* while I was there, so my Spanish also became prettygood!Interviewer: And then what did you do?Suzanne: When I was 25 I came back to Switzerland, went to aninterpreters' school and then got a job in the United Nationswhen I was 28.Interviewer: And you've been there ever since?Suzanne: Not quite. In the first few months I met Jan, a Czech interpreter, who became my husband. We went to live in Prague in 1987and that was where I learnt Czech.Interviewer: And the eighth language?Suzanne: Well, unfortunately the marriage didn't last; I was very upset and I decided to take a long break. I went to Japan on holiday,got a job and stayed for two years, which was when I learntJapanese.Interviewer: That's amazing! And now you're back at the United Nations? Suzanne: Yes. Well, I never really left. I carried on doing work for them when I was in Prague - some in Prague, some in Austria andSwitzerland, and I took a "sabbatical*" to work in Japan. Theyneed people who can understand Japanese. But, yes, I've beenback with them full-time for two years now.Interviewer: And your plans for the future?Suzanne: I'm going to learn more Oriental languages. It was such a challenge learning Japanese - it's so different from all the others.So I'll spend another two or three years here with the UNfull-time, during which time I hope to get a substantialpromotion, then I think I'll go back and learn Korean, orperhaps Chinese, and Thai - I'd love to learn Thai. And then,perhaps an Indian language.

FPart 2 PassageThe Clyde RiverRunning through one of Britain's biggest manufacturing centers, Glasgow, the Clyde River* was poisoned for more than a century bythe fetid* byproducts of industry.The waterway bore the brunt of(首当其冲)Glasgow's economic success during the Industrial Revolution and beyond, as pollution and chemicals destroyed its fish and wildlife populations and brewed smells whose memory still makes residents wince*. Now, with heavy industry gone and Glasgow reconceived as a center for culture and tourism, the Clyde is coming back to life.For the first time since the late 1800s, its native salmon have returned in sizable numbers, reflecting the new cleanliness of a riverthat was once one of Britain's filthiest.The Clyde River Foundation surveyed fish populations last autumnat 69 sites in the Clyde and its tributaries, and found salmon in sevenof the nine major tributaries.The migratory fish, which vanished from the Clyde around 1880 after a long decline, first reappeared in the 1980s, but last year's survey was the first to show they've come back in healthy numbers.Although commercial salmon fishing was never widespread on the Clyde, the fish's return is symbolically important for Glasgow, where salmon were once so important to the city's identity that two are picturedon its official coat of arms.The salmon's comeback is also a sign of big improvements to water quality. Like sea trout, which have also reappeared in the Clyde system in recent years, salmon are very sensitive to environmental conditions and require cool, well-oxygenated* water to thrive.The decline of Glasgow's main industries helped boost the fortunes of a river that was essentially fishless for decades during the worst periods of pollution.The closure of factories that had poured toxins* and other pollutants into the river boosted water quality significantly. Environmental regulators also lightened dumping rules, and modern sewage processing plants helped eliminate some of the foul* smells that once tainted* the air.With worries rising about the environmental impact of enormous fish farms elsewhere in Scotland and severely depleted fish stocks in the North Sea and North Atlantic, the Clyde comeback is a rare bit of good news for Scotland's fish lovers.Since the area that is now Glasgow was first settled around the year 550, the Clyde has been central to its history.The river's depth and navigability helped make Glasgow an important center for importing tobacco, sugar and cotton from the Americas starting in the 1600s. Later, during the Industrial Revolution that began in the late1700s, Glasgow became a center of British shipbuilding and one of the country's great manufacturing centers.The mills and factories that lined the Clyde made steel, textiles and chemicals, tanned leather and even produced candy and brewed alcohol.When the factories began to close in the second half of the 20th century, working-class Glasgow, Scotland's largest city, gained a reputation for social deprivation and rough streets. More recently, its art museums and nightlife have helped drive an economic comeback that has turned the city into a popular tourist destination.Exercise A Pre-listening QuestionRivers are important to humans because they supply fresh drinking water, serve as home for important fishes, and provide transportation routes.Exercise B Sentence DictationDirections: Listen to some sentences and write them down.

He says the nine chemicals that have joined the list of Persistent Organic Pollutants, or POPS, are extremely harmful to the environment and to health.The newly targeted chemicals include products that are widely used in pesticides and flame-retardants, and in a number of other commercial uses, such as a treatment for head lice.These nine toxic chemicals will join the Stockholm Convention's original list of 12 Persistent Organic Pollutants, referred to as the "dirty dozen."The pollutants are especially dangerous because they cross boundaries and travel long distances, from the Equator to the Arctic. They persist inthe atmosphere and take many years, often decades, to degrade into less dangerous forms.They pose great risks to the environment and human health, especially to young people, farmers, pregnant women and the unborn.Exercise ADirections: Listen to the news item and complete the summary.This news item is about a ban of nine of the world’s most hazardous chemicals.Exercise BDirections: Listen to the news again and complete the following passage.UN environment Program Executive welcomed the agreement to ban the production of nine of the world’s most hazardous chemicals that are extremely harmful to the environment and to health.

A major conference in Copenhagen at the end of the year will focus on ways to mitigate the worst affects of global warming.WMO Secretary-General Michel Jarraud (世界气象组织秘书长贾侯)says countries must have the tools to adapt to a changing climate. They must be able to respond to a world that is likely to experience more extreme weather events, such as floods and hurricanes.Jarraud notes farmers in certain parts of the world will have to adapt to a dryer climate. He says they might have to modify irrigation systems or consider growing crops that do not require much rain.He says global warming is likely to increase the intensity and frequency of extreme weather events. Therefore, better and more timely information on these phenomena are essential to make decisions onclimate variability and change. To do this, he says, weather observation networks must be strengthened.The WMO chief says climate change is a global problem. And, everyone needs everyone else to solve this problem. He says even the biggest, richest countries cannot do it alone. He says the developed world needs reliable weather information from developing countries andvice-versa.Exercise ADirections: Listen to the news item and complete the summary.This news item is about an appeal for global cooperation to deal with climate change.Exercise BDirections: Listen to the news again and answer the following questions.1)Scientists predict the world will get hotter over the coming decades.2)A major conference in Copenhagen at the end of the year will focuson ways to mitigate the worst affects of global warming.3)Countries must have the tools to adapt to a changing climate.4)Jarraud notes farmers in certain parts of the world will have to adaptto a dryer climate.

An unexpected discovery at the southern end of the reef has provided some rare good news for researchers.Researchers found that coral in the Keppel Islands off Queensland, which was damaged by bleaching in 2006 and then smothered by seaweed that overgrew the reef, has managed to repair itself.Experts say to see reefs bounce back from mass coral bleaching in less than a decade is highly unusual.Like other coral systems, the Great Barrier Reef is facing a range ofenvironmental threats. Scientists say their capacity to recovery from damage inflicted by warmer waters, for example, will be critical to its future health.The Great Barrier Reef is one of Australia's premier tourist attractions. It covers an area bigger than Britain and is the largest living structure on earth and the only one visible from space.Exercise ADirections: Listen to the news item and complete the summary.This news item is about the Great Barrier Reef.Exercise BDirections: Listen to the news again and decide whether the following statements are true (T) or false (F).l.

Ban Ki-moon has said it was the biggest climate change demonstration ever attempted. Mr. Ban urged people everywhere to pressure their governments to take decisive action to cut carbon pollution.Organizers are hoping that up to a billion people from small villages in Namibia to sprawling cities in Asia will participate in an international effort to cut greenhouse gas emissions, which many scientists blame for a warming climate.One of the architects of Earth Hour, Andy Ridley from the conservation group World Wildlife Fund (WWF), says the current financial meltdown should not be used as an excuse to delay environmental reforms."The global economic crisis has proved that we are a global community, so when America goes bad, we all go bad and climate change is going to be on a scale that is way, way beyond our global economic crisis at the moment and we need to put in place the measures to a) slow that down and ideally halt it, b) be ready for economies that will have to change. So, the longer we procrastinate the more we pay the penalty so we need to move quickly," he said.Earth Hour was started by environmentalists in Sydney in 2007. It encourages households, businesses and governments to switch off all non-essential lights for 60 minutes in a show of unified concern for thehealth and future of the planet.In two years, the event has become a large global movement and its aim is to create an enormous wave of public pressure that will influence delegates at a meeting in Copenhagen later this year, which hopes to establish a new U.N. climate treaty.However, critics of Earth Hour have insisted it is simply a symbolic gesture that will not affect significant environmental change.The event will officially begin on the international dateline in the remote Chatham Islands southeast of New Zealand and will conclude in Hawaii.Exercise A: Directions: Listen to the news report and complete the summary.This news report is about a global event known as Earth Hour.Exercise BDirections: Listen to the news again and complete the following sentences.1.Scotland's Edinburgh Castle, the Bird's Nest stadium in Beijing andthe pyramids in Egypt will join the Sydney Opera House in d imming their lights as part of Earth Hour.2.Ban Ki-moon has said it was the biggest climate changedemonstration ever attempted.anizers are hoping that up to a billion people will participate in aninternational effort to cut greenhouse gas emissions, which many scientists blame for a warming climate.4.Andy Ridley, One of the architects of Earth Hour, says the currentfinancial meltdown should not be used as an excuse to delay environmental reforms.5.In two years, the event has become a large global movement and itsaim is to create an enormous wave of public pressure that will influence delegates at a meeting in Copenhagen later this year.Part 2 PassageLab produces shape-shifting fruits and vegetables Many fruits and vegetables we know almost as much by their shape as by their color or taste. Bananas are long and curved. Onions are round. But what if you could alter the familiar shape? Would a square tomato still be a tomato?Scientists are learning how to change the shape of fruits and vegetables so they can be harvested or processed more efficiently, or maybe just to reduce waste in the kitchen. It can be done to some extent with traditional hybrid techniques. And as we hear from reporter Julie Grant, it can also be done by flipping a genetic switch.Ester van der Knaap steps gingerly around the greenhouse. We're at the Ohio State Agricultural Research and Development Center in Wooster.Van Der Knaap points out short, round tomatoes - and some odd-looking long, thin ones.V AN DER KNAAP: "That's one gene. One gene can make that difference."Van der Knaap's team discovered that gene and isolated it. They call it the SUN gene. And they've been able to clone it in tomatoes.Van der Knaap's research could lead to square-shapes - something she thinks the tomato industry might like. Square tomatoes fit into packages better. And, overall, square tomatoes might be easier to work with than the common round tomatoes.So far money for her research has come from the National Science Foundation - not big ag.Designer fruit shapes are gaining popularity.People have been cross-breeding tomatoes to make the shapes they want for a long time. But this is not the same thing.Dick Alford is a chef and professor of hospitality management at the University of Akron [Ohio].The difference between what his brother and lots of other folks have been doing and what van der Knaap is doing is the difference between cross-breeding and locating a specific gene that affects the shape of tomatoes.Chef Alford watches students as they cut yellow crookneck squashand carrots.They're trying to make uniform, symmetrical shapes out of curvy and pointed vegetables. There's a lot of waste. Chef Alford hates to see so much get thrown away. So he's got a request of Dr. van der Knaap.ALFORD: "If we could get square carrots, it would be great. If you could get a tomato as long as a cucumber, where you could get 20 or 30 slices out of them, it would be great."In a country that loves hamburgers, Van der Knaap has heard that request before. But the long, thin tomato hasn't worked out just yet. She says there's more genetics to be studied.“Once we know all the genes responsible for making different shapes in tomatoes”, Van der Knaap says, “ we'll have a better idea of what controls the shape of other crops, such peppers, cucumbers and gourds. And maybe then we'll get those square carrots.”Exercise A Pre-listening Question(open)Exercise B Sentence DictationDirections: Listen to some sentences and write them down.
