11.M: I don’t know what to do. I have to drive to Chicago next Friday for my cousin’s wedding, but I have got a Psychology
test to prepare for.
W: Why don’t you record your notes so you can study on the way?
Q: What does the woman suggest the man do?
12.M: Professor Wright, you may have to find another student to play this role, the lines are so long and I simply can’t
remember them all.
W: Look, Tony. It is still a long time before the first show. I don’t expect you to know all the lines yet. Just keep
practicing.
Q: What do we learn from the conversation?
13.M: Hello, this is Dr. Martin from the Emergency Department. I have a male patient with a fractured ankle.
W: Oh, we have one bed available in ward 3, send him here and I will take care of him.
Q: What are the speakers talking about?
14.W: Since Simon will graduate this May, the school paper needs a new editor. So if you are interested, I will be happy to
nominate you.
M: Thanks for considering me. But the baseball team is starting up a new season. And I’m afraid I have a lot on my hands.
Q: What does the man mean?
15.W: Have you heard the news that Jame Smeil has resigned his post as prime minister?
M: Well, I got it from the headlines this morning. It’s reported that he made public at this decision at the last cabinet
meeting.
Q: what do we learn about Jame Smeil?
16.W: The morning paper says the space shuttle is taking off at 10 a.m. tomorrow.
M: Yeah, it ’s just another one of this year’s routine missions. The first mission was undertaken a decade ago and broadcast
live then worldwide.
Q: what can we infer from this conversation?
17. M: We do a lot of camping in the mountains. What would you recommend for two people?

used.
Q: Where does the conversation most probably take place?
18.W: I hear you did some serious shopping this past weekend.
M: Yeah, the speakers of my old stereo finally gave out and there was no way to repair them.

W: Now, could you tell me where the idea for the business first came from?
M: Well, the original shop was opened by a retired printer by the name of Gruby. Mr Gruby being left-handed himself,
thought of the idea to try to promote a few products for left-handers.
W:And how did he then go about actually setting up the business?
M: Well, he looked for any left-handed products that might already be on the market which were very few. And then
第 2 页 共 20 页
contacted the manufactures with the idea of having products produced for him, mainly in the scissors range to start with.
W: Right. So you do commission some part of your stock.
M: Yes, very much so.About 75 percent of our stock is specially made for us.
W:And the rest of it?
M: Hmm, the rest of it now, some 25, 30 years after Mr. Gruby’s initial efforts, there are more left-handed product
actually on the market.Manufactures are now beginning to see that there is a market for left-handed products.
W:And what’s the range of your stock?
M: The range consists of a variety of scissors from children scissors to scissors for tailors, hairdressers etc. We also have
a large range of kitchen ware.
W: What’s the competition like? Do you have quite a lot of competition?
M: There are other people in the business now in specialists, but only as mail-order outlets. But we have a shop here in
central London plus a mail-order outlet. And we are without any doubt the largest supplier of the left-handed items.
Q19: What kind of business does the man engaged in?
Q20: What does the man say about his stock of products?
Q21: What does the man say about other people in his line of business?

M: Can we make you an offer?We would like to run the campaign for four extra weeks.
W: well, can we summarize the problem from my point of view? First of all, the campaign was late. It missed two
important trade affairs. The ads also did not appear into key magazines. As a result, the campaign failed. Do you accept that
summary of what happened?
M: well, the delay wasn’t entirely our fault. You did in fact make late changes to the specifications of the advertisements.
W: Uh, actually, you were late with the initial proposals so you have very little time and in fact, we only asked for small
changes.
M: Well whatever, can we repeat our offer to run the campaign for 4 extra weeks?
W: That’s not really the point. The campaign missed two key trade affairs. Because of this, we are asking you either to
repeat the campaign next year for free, or we only pay 50% of the fee for this year.
M: Could we suggest a 20% reduction to the fee together with the four week sustention to the campaign.
W: We are not happy. We lost business.
M: I think we both made mistakes. The responsibility is on both sides.
W: Ok, let’s suggest a new solution. How about a 40% cut in fee, or a free repeat campaign?
M: Well, let ’s take a break; we’re not getting very far. Perhaps we should think about this.
Q22: What do we learn about the man’s company?
Q23: Why was the campaign delayed according to the man?
Q24: What does the woman propose as a solution to the problem?
Q25: What does the man suggest they do at the end of the conversation?

PassagePassagePassagePassageOneOneOneOne
The University of Tennessee’s Walters Life Sciences building, is a model animal facility, spotlessly clean, careful in
obtaining prior approval for experiments from an animal care committee. Of the 15,000 mice house there in a typical year,
most give their lives for humanity. These are good mice and as such won the protection of the animal care committee. At any
given time however some mice escape and run free. These mice are pests. They can disrupt experiments with the bacteria
organisms they carry. They are bad mice and must be captured and destroyed. Usually, this is accomplished by means of
sticky traps, a kind of fly paper on which they become increasingly stuck. But the real point of the cautionary tale, says
animal behaviorist Herzau, is that the labels we put on things can affect our moral responses to them. Using stick traps or the
more deadly snap traps would be deemed unacceptable for good mice. Yet the killing of bad mice requires no prior approval.
Once the research animal hits the floor and becomes an escapee, says Herza, its moral standard is instantly diminished. In
Herzau’s own home, there was more ironic example when his young son’s pet mouseWilly died recently, it was accorded a
第 3 页 共 20 页
tearful ceremonial burial in garden. Yet even as they mourned Willy, says Herzau, he and his wife were setting snap traps to
kill the pest mice in their kitchen with the bare change in labels from pet to pest, the kitchen mice obtained totally different
moral standards
Q26.What does the passage say about most of the mice used for experiments?
Q27. Why did the so-called bad mice have to be captured and destroyed?
Q28. When are mice killed without prior approval?
Q29. Why does the speaker say what the Herzau’s did at home is ironical?
PassagePassagePassagePassage TwoTwoTwoTwo
There are roughly three New Yorks. There is, first, the New York of the man or woman who was born here, who takes the
city for granted and accepts its size and its turbulence as natural and inevitable. Second, there is the New York of the
commuter — the city that is swallowed up by locusts each day and spat out each night. Third, there is the New York of the
person who was born somewhere else and came to New York in quest of something. Of these three trembling cities the
greatest is the last, the city of final destination, the city that has a goal. It is this third city that accounts for New York's
high-strung disposition, its poetical deportment, its dedication to the arts, and its incomparable achievements. Commuters
give the city its tidal restlessness; natives give it solidity and continuity; but the settlers give it passion. And whether it is a
farmer arriving from Italy to set up a small grocery store in a slum, or a young girl arriving from a small town in Mississippi
to escape the indignity of being observed by her neighbors, or a boy arriving from the Corn Belt with a manuscript in his
suitcase and a pain in his heart, it makes no difference: each embraces New York with the intense excitement of first love,
each absorbs New York with the fresh eyes of an adventurer, each generates heat and light to dwarf the Consolidated Edison
Company.
Questions 30 to 32 are based on the passage you have just heard.
Q30. What does the speaker say about the natives of New York?
Q31. What does the speaker say commuters give to New York?
Q32. What do we learn about the settlers of New York?

“If you asked me television is unhealthy”, I said to my roommateWalter, as I walked into the living room.“While you
are sitting passively in front of the TV set, your muscles are turning to fat, your complexion is fading, and your eyesight is
being ruined.”
“Shh~”Walter put his finger to his lips, “This is an intriguing murder mystery.”
“Really?” I replied.
“But you know, the brain is destroyed by TV viewing. Creativity is killed by that box. And people are kept from
communicating with one another. From my point of view, TV is the cause of the declining interest in school and the failure
of our entire educational system.”
“Ah ha, I can’t see your point.” Walter said softly. “But see? The woman on the witness stand in this story is being
questioned about the murder that was committed one hundred years ago.”
Ignoring his enthusiastic description of the plot, I went on with my argument.
“As I see it,” I explained, “not only are most TV programs badly written and produced, but viewers are also
manipulated by the mass media. As far as I am concerned, TV watchers are cut off from reality from nature, from the other
people, from life itself! I was confident in my ability to persuade.
After a short silence, my roommate said, “Anyway, I’ve been planning to watch the football game. I am going to change
the channel.”
“Don’t touch that dial!” I shouted, “I wanted to find out how the mystery turns out!”
I am not sure I got my point to cross.
Questions 33- 35 are based on the passage you have just heard.
Q33. As the speaker walked into the living room, what was being shown on TV?
Q34. What does the speaker say about watching television?
Q35. What can we say about the speaker?

In the past, one of the biggest disadvantages of machines has been their inability to work on a micro scale. For
example, doctors did not have devices allowing them to go inside the human body to(36) detect health problems or to
perform (36) delicate surgery. Repair crews did not have a way of(37) identifying broken pipes located deep within a
high-rise(38) apartment building. However, that’s about to change. Advances in computers and biophysics have started a
micro miniature (39) revolution that allows scientists to envision and in some cases actually build microscopic machines.
These devices promise to (40) dramatically change the way we live and work.
Micro-machines already are making an impact. At Case Western Reserve University in Cleveland, Ohio, research
scientists have designed a 4-inch silicon chip that holds 700 tiny(41) primitive motors. At Lucas Nova Sensor in Fremont,
California, scientists have perfected the world’s first microscopic blood-pressure(42) sensor. Threaded through a person’s
blood (43) vessels, the sensor can provide blood pressure readings at the valve of the heart itself.
(44)Although simple versions of miniature devices have had an impact, advanced versions are still several years away.
Auto manufacturers, for example, are trying to use tiny devices that can sense when to release an airbag and how to
keep engines and breaks operating efficiently. Some futurists envision nanotechnology also being used to explore the deep
sea in small submarine, or even to launch finger-sized rockets packed with micro miniature instruments.
“There is an explosion of new ideas and applications,” So, (46) when scientists now think about future machines
doing large and complex tasks, they’re thinking smaller than ever before.

Questions 19 to 22 are based on the conversation you have just heard.
W: You know I've often wondered why people laugh at the picture of a big belly businessman slipping on a banana skin
and falling on his bottom.We are to feel sorry for them.
M: Actually, Laura, I think we laugh because we are glad it didn't happen to us. But of course there is also a kind of
humorous satisfaction in seeing somebody self-important making a fool of themselves.
W: Yes, and there are a lot of jokes about people who are too fat or physically handicapped, you know, deaf, or
short-sighted things like that. After all, it's not really funny to be like that.
M: Oh, I think that's because we're embarrassed. We don't know how to cope with the situation. Perhaps we are even a
bit frightened we may get like that, so we laugh.
M: What about the custard pie routine?
W:What do you mean 'custard pie routine'?
M: You know, all those old films where someone gets so outraged with his boss, He picks up a custard pie and plasters
it all over the other person's face.
W: That never makes me laugh much, because you can guess what's going to happen. But a lot of people still find it
laughable. It must because of the sort of the thing we'd all love to do once in a while and never quiet have the courage to.
M: I had an old aunt who used to throw cups of tea at people when she was particularly irritated. She said it relieved
her feelings.
W: It must have come a bit expensive.
M: Not really. She took care never to throw her best china.

searched. It was part of the airport security check.
