Text 1

Sometime in the middle of the 15th century, a well-to-do

merchant from London buried more than 6,700 gold and silver coins on a

sloping, hillside in Surrey. He was fleeing the War of the Ro-ses and

planned to return during better times. But he never did. The coins lay

undisturbed until one September evening in 1990, when local resident

Roger Mintey chanced upon them with a metal de-tector, a device used to

determine the presence of metals. Mintey's find much of.which now sits

in the British Museum-earned him roughly $350,000, enough to quit his

job with a small manu- facturer and spend more time pursuing lost

treasure.

But digging up the past is controversial in Britain. In many

European countries, metal detecto- fists, or people using metal

detectors, face tough regulations. In the U. K., however, officials in-

troduced a scheme in 1997 encouraging hobbyists to report their

discoveries (except for those fall- ing under the definition of treasure,

like Mintey's find, which they are required to report)--but al- lowing

them to keep what they find, or receive a reward. Last year, a hidden

store was uncovered

in a field outside Birmingham. It consists of more than 1,500

gold and silver objects from the sev- enth century and was valued at

more than $4.5 million. While local museums hurry to raise enough money

to keep the find off the open market, it sits in limbo, owned by the

Crown but fa- cing claims by the landowner and the metal detectorist who

found it.

The find marks the latest battleground in the increasingly

heated conflict between the country's 10,000-20,000 metal detectorists and the museum workers determined to protect its precious old objects.

Supporters say the scheme stems the loss of valuable information about

precious old ob-jects, while opponents argue that metal detectorists

don't report everything.

The debate centers on the larger question of who owns the past.

"There's been a slow move over the centuries that precious old things

belong to us all," says Professor Christopher Chippindale of Cambridge

University. But in Britain at least, the temptation of buried treasure

could change all that.

46. According to the first paragraph, the coins in Surrey were

A. worth roughly $350,000

B. possessed by a local resident

C. unearthed about 500 years ago

D. left by a merchant during a war

47. What do we know about Roger Mintey?

A. He produces metal detectors.

B. He owns a manufacturing firm.

C. He works for the British Museum.

D. He seeks buried treasure as a hobby.

48. In the U. K., metal detectorists

A. are rewarded for whatever they find

B. are forced to obey tough regulations

C. may keep what they have discovered

D. should report whatever they discover

49. As for the find outside Birmingham, it is still unclear

A. how much it is worth B. how it was discovered

C. who is entitled to it

D. what it is made up of

50. According to Professor Christopher Chippindale, buried

treasure

A. is owned by the public

B. is debated in a heated way

C. remains a big temptation

D. turns precious over time

参考答案

Part A

Text 1

在15世纪中期,一位来自伦敦的富有商人将6700多枚金币和银币埋藏在萨里的一座倾斜的山坡里。他当时在躲避玫瑰战争,打算在战争结束时再返回,但是他却没能回来。这些金银币一直藏在地下,直到1990年九月的一个夜晚,当地的一位居民Roger Mintey偶然间用一种探测金属的仪器发现了它们。Mintey发现的金银币大约价值35万美金(大部分硬币现保存在大不列颠博物馆),这笔钱足够他辞去小工厂的工作并继续搜寻剩下的宝藏。

但是这种挖掘在当时的'英国是备受争议的。在许多欧洲国家,金属探测者或使用金属探测器的人都将面临严厉的法律制裁。然而,l997年

英国官方颁布了一项新制度,鼓励爱好者们上报他们的发现(除了那些属于宝藏范围内的物品,Mintey的发现就属于此范围,必须上报),但允许他们拥有发现的物品或上报赢得奖励。去年,在伯明翰郊外发现了一处隐秘的仓库。该仓库中藏有1500多件7世纪的金制品和银制品,价值高达450多万美元。正当当地的博物馆急着筹集资金去购买这些制品以免其流入市场时,它的归属权还在争论,其皇族拥有者遭到了土地拥有者及发现者的指责。

这些被发现的物品激发了英国l至2万金属探测者和博物馆力图保护文物的工作人员之间的白热化的战争。支持者认为此制度阻止了珍贵文物的流失,而反对者认为金属探测者们不会上报所有东西。这场争论的重点在于到底谁应该拥有历史遗产。剑桥大学的Chris—topherChippindale教授说道,“过去几个世纪以来,人们渐渐开始认为这些珍贵的文物属于我们所有人”。但是至少在英国,这些埋葬的宝藏诱惑着很多人,从而改变了一切。

46.D【精析】细节题。关于萨里的硬币,从文章第一段第一、二句“…awell—to—do merchant from London buried more than 6,700...He was

fleeing the War of the Roses…”可知,这些硬币是被一位商人在战争中留下的,D正确。由第一段最后一句“Mintey’s find--much ofwhich now sits in

the British Museum--eamed him roughly$350.000…spend more time pursuing

lost treasure.”可知Mintey发现的金银币大约值三十五万美元,但他并没有发现全部的,题干问的是埋在底下的全部金币的信息,所以A不正确;第一段没有提及归属权的问题,故8错误;由第一段开头可知,金币是在15世纪中期(大约l650年左右)埋藏的,l990年发现,中间大约340年左右,故C不正确。综上所述,故选D。

47.D【精析】推断题。由文章第一段可知,Mintey只是使用金属探测器发现了金币,并不是他发明了金属探测器,故A不正确。由第一段最后一句可知,Mintey是在一家工厂工作,并不是拥有一家工厂,故B、C不正确。从文章第一段最后两句可知,Roger Mintey是偶然间用金属探测器发现的并且他在一家小工厂工作,第二段第三句也提到政府鼓励爱好者上报他们的发现,并举了Mintey的例子,由此可推断Mintey只是将此作为爱好,故选D。

who act as if they were born here; the people who are here and wish to

be elsewhere; and the collection of virtual New Yorkers all over the

it' s a city of dreamers.

What makes New York special? New Yorkers are convinced of its

speciainess--but Toronto is more diverse, London is larger, Washington

2021年全国英语等级考试(PETS)三级听力技巧

2021年全国英语等级考试(PETS)三级听力技巧

2021年全国英语等级考试(PETS)三级听力技巧

(2021最新版)

作者:______

编写日期:2021年__月__日

技巧尽在多听多练中

对于听力,大家要注意,听懂与听不懂最关键的,可能就在于一个句子中的单词不认识。因为在句子当中,可能会出现连读、失爆、吞音等状态。平常在听的时候要注意模仿,背诵一些有用的句型。如果短期内提高听力有难度,平常要多注意认真去听带子,模仿带子,听任何东西都是要先听,再去看,先培养听的感觉,打开看一下,跟你听的有什么差异,再合上书去练,反复去练。读句子中的连读、失爆、吞音等要注意简单的语音知识。考生可以一个题型一个题型进行练习。短对话、长对话以及篇章等等。

大家在听的过程中一定要先做题,看看哪个地方没听懂,反复听,看能不能听会。注意在听的过程中,什么影响你作选项了。听力中,也有解题技巧和方式。听长对话时,可能会出现but,如果前面没听懂或没听清楚,突然听到but出现,可能这个后面的句子就是某道题选择的答案句。大家在技巧和方法方面一定要多听多熟悉。

说话不多不少最合适

首先要熟悉各个级别的口语考试程序,一般情况是跟老师简单打招呼,老师会根据你的情况提出两到三个问题。第二项,可能会给个表格,让你根据图片答题或提问。这是两个过程,一个是给你图片的时候让你答,一个是给你图片的时候让你问。不管跟你一起考试的伴儿跟你配合得如何,千万不能因为他影响你的正常发挥。PETS二级以上开始有随机性的问题,根据所答篇目,每个步骤每个级别有严格的时间限制,一个问题没有答出来,千万不要影响其他五个问题的发挥。

做口语过程当中希望大家注意到一点,说话不能特别少,如果说话特少的话,你就处于比较被动的状态,老师可能评分比较难一些。对你能不能过这个考试就成了个问号。第二个,说话过多也不是一件很好的事。如果说话过多的话,会暴露组织语言的用词、语法等等问题。大家在做PETS口试时,建议大家还是要在口语老师的指点之下,多背一些经典的模板,不会的时候可以让他去重复,用英语去说都可以。切忌冷场什么都不说。口语考试非常有模式,老师口语考官问学生问题的时候是绝对不能超出这个模式的,严格按照所给的指令进行提问,希望大家在考试之前要多做口语考试练习,多背一些客套话,在辩论的时候应该怎么样去找切入点去提出你的问题,回答时怎样用有用句转换话题,把包袱扔给对方,这些技巧希望大家多注意一些。

全国英语等级考试(pets)三级口语考试技巧

PETS口试试题的设计与评分标准,重点是看考生的交际能力的强弱,辅以词汇量的大小、语法知识的掌握,以及语言传递的流畅程度。想要在PETS口语考试中脱颖而出还需要一些有针对性的训练和技巧。

PETS中无论哪一个等级的口语考试,其考查的核心都是互动技能与有效交流。互动技能是指口试主考官与考生以及考生之间交替进行产出与接受的轮回语言活动。通过双方合作性的交流,共同构建对话,并从中获取各自所需的信息,达到交流的目的。尤为值得一提的是,PETS口试试题的设计与评分标准,重点是看考生的交际能力的强弱,辅以词汇量的大小、语法知识的掌握,以及语言传递的流畅程度。倘若考生对考生之间互提问题时的问题研究甚少、知之不多,大可不必为自己缺乏此种信息而紧张。

考生可以这么说

“I’m sorry, I don’t know much about this. So I cannot answer

your question. But I guess, it might be like this…”或者这么说:”I’m

afraid that this question is beyond me. You know, actually I’ve never

had such kind of experience. Maybe you could offer me some

information about this?”

怎样利用语言这一交流工具进行有效交流,巧妙地回避矛盾、解决难题、达到目的,在很大程度上反映考生对语言的驾驭能力,因为这是口语考试的核心精神之所在。 所以,口试教师对考生进行口试评分时,主要切题点是观察语言的应用能力和处事应变能力,而非考核考生在某个方面知识掌握程度的深浅或发表意见或观点本身的正确与错误。这是考查考生的语言应用能力及语言的组织能力。

Dialogues /monologues:

1、Geography has been integrating many different subjects in its approach.

has been integrating:现在完成进行时

现在完成进行时与现在完成时皆可表示动作对现在产生的结果,但前者所表示的结果是直接的,而后者所表示的则是最后结果。如:

A句表示约翰刚刚把门刷漆过,现在油漆还末干,所以得小心。

B句则无此含义,油漆可能已经干了。

2、Many schools have eliminated geography in favor of more math and science

courses.

In favor of:
