One day he received an invitation to dinner at the ruler’s palace. Very pleased, he went to tell his colleagues. They laughed and told him the meaning of the invitation. They had all been invited and each person who was invited has to bring with him a certain number of silver and gold coins. The number of coins varied according to theperson’s position in the service of the government.My friend’s income was not high, so he did not have much to pay. Each person bound before the ruler, his gold went onto one hip, his silver went onto another hip, and in this way he paid his income tax for the year. This was a simple way of collecting income tax.The tax on property was also collected simply: The ruler gave a man the power to collect a tax from each owner of land or property in a certain area if this man promised to pay the ruler a certain amount of money. Of course the tax collector managed to collect more money than he paid to the ruler. The difference between the sum of money he collected and the sum of money he gave to the ruler was his profit.Questions 11 to 13 are based on the passage you have just heard.11. What do we know about the speaker’s friend?12. What was the real purpose of the ruler’s invitation?13. What does the passage say about the tax collectors?Passage TwoAround the year 1000A. D. , some people from Northwest India began to travel westwards. Nobody knows why. After leaving their homes, they did not settle down again but spent their lives moving from one place to another. Their later generations are called the Romany people or Gypsies. There are Gypsies all over the world. And many of them are still traveling with no fixed homes. There are about 8 million of them, including 3 million in Eastern Europe. Gypsies sometimes have a hard time in the countries where they travel, because they are different. People may be afraid of them, look down on them or think that they are criminals. The Nazis treated the Gypsies cruelly, like the Jews. And nobody knows how many of them died in Hitler’s death camps.Gypsies have their own language, Romany. They like music and dancing, and they often work in fairs and traveling shows.Traveling is very important to them and many Gypsies are unhappy if they have to stay in one place. Because of this, it is difficult for Gypsies children to go to school. And Gypsies are often unable to read and write. In some places, the education authorities try to arrange special traveling schools for Gypsy children so that they can get the same education as other children. Questions 14 to 16 are based on the passage you have just heard.14. Why did the ancestors of Gypsies leave their home?15. What is the attitude of some people towards Gypsies?16. What measure has been taken to help Gypsy children?Passage ThreeAs the car industry develops, traffic accidents have become as familiar as the common cold. Yet their cause and control remain a serious problem that is difficult to solve.Experts have long recognized that this discouraging problem has multiple causes. At the very least it is a problem that involves three factors: the driver, the vehicle and the roadway. If all drivers exercised good judgement at all time, there would be few accidents. But this is rather like saying that if all people were honest, there would be no crime. Improved design has helped to make highways much safer. But the title of accidents continues to rise because to human failure and an enormous increase in the number of automobiles on the road. Attention is now turning increasingly to the third factor of the accident are the car itself. Since people assume that the accidents are bound to occur, they want to know how cars can be built betterto protect the drivers.Questions 17 to 20 are based on the passage you have just heard.17. What does the speaker think are the causes of automobile accidents?18. What measure has been taken to reduce car accidents?19. What remains an important factor for the rising number of road accidents?20. What’s the focus of people’s attention today according to the passage?。

He was telling us about a new way of getting fuel oil from coal.M: I didn't know that was possible.W: He said something about coal being set on fire and blasted with a mixture of steam and oxygen. This process produces a gas made up of hydrogen and carbon, the ...hum, the basic elements of oil.M: And then they do something to change that gas to oil?W: Right. First, since coal contains fewer hydrogen atoms than oil, they have to add some extra hydrogen to the gas. Then impurities are washed out with methanol, I think, before this gas is sent on to reactors where it's changed into oil.M: Since coal is so plentiful I guess it won't be long till this new type of oil will be available all over the place, ah?W: I doubt it. Prof. Collins said something about the process not be economically enough to use in this country. At any rate, you really ought to talk to him.

The professor is discussing a musical theater production.It may seem strange that we're discussing music from a Broadway production in this class, "The Lion King" especially, since it's based on a popular Hollywood movie. I mean music performed for Broadway theater in the heart of New York City surely would seem to be in the western tradition of popular music and not have much in common with the music we've been studying in this course, such as gamelan music of Indonesia, or Zulu chants of South Africa–musicthat developed outside the western tradition of Europe and America. But in fact, musicians have a longstanding tradition of borrowing from one another's cultures. And this production's director intentionally included both western and non-western music. That way, some of the rhythms, instruments, harmonies typical of non-western music contrast with and complement popular music more familiar to audiences in North America and Europe, music like rock, jazz or Broadway style show tunes. So I want to spend the rest of this class and most of the next one on the music from the show "The Lion King" as a way of summarizing some of the technical distinctions between typical western music and the non-western music thatwe've been studying. Now the African influence on the music is clear, the story takes place in Africa. So the director got a South African composer to write songs with a distinctly African sound. And the songs even include words from African languages. But we'll get back to the African influence later. First let's turn to the music that was written for the shadow puppet scenes in "The Lion King", music based on the Indonesian music used in the shadow puppet theater of that region.39.What is the talk mainly about?(A) The influence of European popular music on non-Western music.(B) The musical background of the director of the Broadway version of The Lion King(C) The types of music used in the Broadway version of The Lion King.King.40.What can be inferred about most of the music the students have studied in the course?(A) It was performed by the Zulu people of South Africa.(B) It developed outside the musical traditions of Europe.(D) The students heard it performed in New York City.41.Why were African words included in some songs for the Broadway version of "The Lion King"?(A) The director is of African ancestry.(B) The director wanted the songs in the Broadway version to be identical to the songs in the film.(C) The Broadway version was first performed in Africa.(D) The story takes place in Africa.42. What will the professor probably talk about next?(A) A type of music that originated in Indonesia.(C) The plot of The Lion King(D) Popular rock andjazz music performed in The Lion King.Questions 43-46 Listen to part of a talk in a class on the history of science.In ancient times, many people believed the earth was a flat disc. Well over 2,000 years ago, theancient Greek philosophers were able to put forward two good arguments proving that it was not.Direct observation of heavenly bodies was the basis of both these arguments. First, the Greeks knewthat during eclipses of the moon, the earth was between the sun and the moon, and they saw that duringthese eclipses, the earth's shadow on the moon was always round, they realized that this could be trueonly if the earth was spherical. If the earth were a flat disc, then its shadow during eclipses would notbe a perfect circle, it would be stretched out into a long ellipse. The second argument was based onwhat the Greeks saw during their travels. They noticed that the North Star, or Polaris, appeared lower inthe sky when they traveled south, in more northerly regions, the North Star appeared to them to bemuch higher in the sky. By the way, it was also from this difference in the apparent position of theNorth Star that the Greeks first calculated the approximate distance around the circumference of theearth, a figure recorded in ancient documents says 400,000 stadia, that's the plural of the word stadium.Today, it's not known exactly what length one stadium represents, but let's say it was about 200 meters,the length of many athletic stadiums. This would make the Greek's estimate about twice the figureaccepted today, a very good estimate for those writing so long before even the fast telescope wasinvented.43.What is the talk mainly about?(A) How ancient philosophers measured the distance between heavenly bodies.(B) How ancient philosophers explained the cause of an eclipse of the Moon.(C) Why ancient philosophers thought the Earth was a sphere.44.According to the professor, what were, the beliefs of the Greek philosophers based upon?(A) How the natural world was described in Greek mythology.(B) What they observed directly.(D) Measurements made with scientific instruments.45.What does the professor say about ancient Greeks who traveled south?(A) They noticed an apparent change in the position of the North Star.(C) They were the first to estimate the distance between heavenly bodies.(D) They wanted to prove that the Earth was flat.46.What does the professor say the term stadium refers to?(A) A place for making astronomical observations.(B) An instrument used for observing stars.(C) A unit of measurement.(D) The North Star.Questions 47-50. Listen to the beginning of a lecture given by a history professor.Good morning, class. Before we begin today, I would like to address an issue that one of you reminded me of after the last lecture. As you may recall, last time I mentioned that Robert E. Peary was the first person to reach the North Pole. Umm, what I neglected to mention was the controversy around Peary's pioneering accomplishment. In 1910, a committee of the national geographical society examined Commodore Peary's claim to have reached the North Pole on April 6th1909 and found no reason to doubt him. This judgment was actually confirmed by a committee of the US Congress in 1911. Nevertheless, Peary's claim was surrounded by controversy. This was largely due to the competing claim of Doctor Frederic Cook who told the world he had reached the Pole a four-year earlier. Over the decades Peary was given the benefit of the doubt, but critics persisted in raising questions about his navigation and the distances he claimed to have covered. So the Navigation Foundation spent an additional 12 months of exhaustive examination of documents relating to Peary's polar expedition. The documents supported Peary's claims about the distances he covered. After also conducting an extensive computer analysis of photos taken by Peary at the pole, they concluded that Pierre and his companions did in fact reach the near vicinity of the North Pole on April 6th, 1909. OK, today we're going to talk about exploration of the opposite end of the world. I assume you all read chapter 3 in our text and are now familiar with the names: Emerson and Scott.47.Why did the professor mention the controversy surrounding Peary?(A) One of the students asked him about it in the previous class.(C) He had just read Dr. Frederick Cock's travel log.(D) The students were required to read about it for that day's class.48.What did Doctor Cook maintain?(A) That Peary had announced his success prematurely.(B) That the investigation of Peary's expedition wasn't thorough.(C) That Peary wasn't an experienced explorer.(D) That he had reached the pole before Peary did.49.How did the experts determine that Peary reached the North Pole?(A) They talked to one of Peary's companions.(B) They interviewed Peary.(C) They conducted a computer analysis of photographs.(D) They examined Peary's navigation tools.50.Which topic will most probably be included in the continuation of today's lecture?(A) Dr. Cook's expedition.(B) The conclusions of the Navigation Foundation.(C) Exploration of the Equator.(D) Exploration of the South Pole.。

As the industry developed so did the horse ridding contests that we called rodeos. Rodeos weren't always the big entertainment shows that we see nowadays. The first ones were small contests started as an informal competition among people historically referred to the cowboys. Although they didn't include both men and women. One duty of the cowboys was to guide the cattle from grass rangers into town along the railroad lines where the cows were loaded on to trains. The cowboys would gather near these cattle towns to compete for the unofficial title "best horse rider". They were demonstrated the riding skills that they had learned as a matter of survival. And the audience was composed mainly of other cowboys who watch the competitor critically since they knew what the events were all about. Rodeos contest took a different turn in the 1890's, when organizers began to hold cowboys sports during yearly agriculture affairs. What was different with the audience? It consist mostly people who were unfamiliar with the life on the range. They were amazed by the skills of riders and intelligence of horses. The rodeos at agricultural affairs became so popular that ranchers and business people began to organize rodeos as independent events separate from fairs. The organizers built large arenas(竞技场, and earn money by requiring spectators to pay for admission. More and more notable rodeos held annually in Wyoming. It's called frontier days. While "frontier days" is not the first independent rodeo, it is the oldest annual show taking place each year since 1897. 40. What is the topic mainly about? 41. What can be inferred about the early radio? 42. What is the significant about the frontier days. 45-46 We've been looking at fear from biological perspective. And someone asked whether the tendency to be fearful is genetic. While some study done with mice indicate that mammals do inherit fearfulness to some degree. In one study for instance, a group of mice were placed in the bright lit open boxes with no hiding places. Some of the micewondered around the box and didn't appear to be bothered about being so exposed. But other mice didn't move. They stayed up against one wall, which indicate that they were afraid. Well, when fearful mice or you might say anxious mice like ones who stayed in one place. When mice like this were bred with one another repeatedly, after about 12 or so generations, then all of the offspring show similar signs of fearfulness. And even when the new born mouse from this generation was raised by a mother and with other mice who were not fearful, that mice still tend to be fearful as the result. Now, why is this? Well, it's thought that the specific gene in animal body haveinfluenced on the anxious behavior. These genes that are associated with particular nerve cell receptors in brain. And the degree of overall fearfulness in the mammal seemto depend in the large part on the presence or absence of these nerve cell receptors. And this appears to apply to humans as well by the way. But while the tendency towards anxiety and fear may well be an inherited trait, but the specific form that the fear takes has more to do individual environment. So a particular fear like the fear of snakes or the fear of spider, say, is not genetic. But the overall tendency to have fearful responses is. 43. What is the talk mainly about? 44. How did some of the mice in the study demonstrated that they were afraid? 45. According to the professor, what contribute to a mammal tendency to be fearful? 46. Why does the prof. mentions snakes and spiders? 47-50 One type of natural spring geographer is interested in is artesian spring. Hiking through the woods some of you are surprised to see water flowing from the opening in the ground. That will no more ever. That may be artesian spring. To help you understand why water might flow like this from underground, I'd like to explain two basic conditions that necessary for their formation. The first condition is that water must be contained in an aquifer(含水土层. An aquifer is an underground layer of rock sediment that has pores or holes in it. And this pores rock allows water to flow through it freely. The aquifer must be inclined so that the over the surface of the ground. Rain water enter this through exposed and traveled downward to the lower portion of the aquifer. The second condition is that above and below the aquifer there must be layer of pores or clay. Either calledaquicludes(含水土层, and they block or hinder the flow of water. Aquicludes prevent water from drilling out of aquifers. So, let us go back to our artesian spring. There usually located above the ground near the lower and wind …… aquifer. A artesian spring are those places some hole crack stand from the ground surface, down through the Aquicludes and into the aquifer. Now the rain water that had drilled into the aquifer makes expose up end created pressure at the low end, so if there is crack in the rock, a crack that run from the aquifer to the surface, then the pressure pushes the water up through it. and water trickling out of the artesian spring. 47. What is the topic mainly about? 48. Why are the aquicludes important to the development of the artesianspring? 49. According to the prof., how does water in the aquifer reach the ground surface? 50. What does the prof. Say about the pressure?。

2001年托福听力讲座文本翻译

01.141-42牧场畜牧业开始于19世纪末期的新美国西部。

当畜牧业发展时,被称为骑术表演的骑马术也在发展。

骑术表演并不总是我们今天看到的大型娱乐表演展示。

最初的骑术表演是一种小型的竞赛,开始的形式是在历史上被称为是牛仔的人们之间的一种竞争,尽管牛仔包括男士和女士。

牛仔的一个任务是把牛群从草场地引入铁路沿线的城镇,在那里牛群被装上火车。

牛仔们将演示他们所学到的骑术,作为生存的方式。

观众主要由其他的牛仔组成,他们安静地观看比赛,因为他们知道即将发生的所有事情。

骑术表演在19世纪90年代有所不同,那时组织者开始在年度农业集市…期间举办牛仔运动。

他们被骑马人的技术和马的智力所震惊。

在农村集市上的骑术表演变得如此受欢迎,以至于农场主和商人开始于集市分开,单独举办骑术表演。

组织者建造大片区域,通过要求观看者付入场费赚钱。

这种骑术表演最著名的一种仍是在怀俄明州举办的每年度的骑术表演。

它被称为FD。

然而FD不是第一个独立的骑术表演。

它是最早的年度表演,1897年以来每年举办一次。

ranch牧场经营rodeo牧人马术表演;43-46我们从生物的角度看看恐惧,并且有人问是否感觉担心是遗传的。

在老鼠身上做的实验表明在某种程度上哺乳动物确实遗传担心。

在一次研究中,例如,一群老鼠被放置在一个没有藏身地方的光照充足的敞口的盒子中。

一些老鼠绕着盒子到处走,并且显出不在乎暴露在外的样子。

但是其他的老鼠不动弹。

它们靠者一面墙不动,表明它们十分害怕。

当担心的老鼠,或你可以称它们焦虑的老鼠就像那些喜欢呆在一个地方的人一样。

当这样的老鼠不断地饲养在一起,12代左右,所有的后代就显示出相似的担心的迹象。

甚至当这一代新生的老鼠被不具有担忧特点的老鼠妈妈和其他老鼠喂养,那个老鼠张大后依然是焦虑型的。

为什么是这样呢?人们认为在动物体内的一种特殊基因会影响焦虑行为。

这些基因是于大脑中的神经细胞接收器相关联的,并且哺乳动物的整体焦虑程度很大程度上取决于是否有神经细胞接收器。

Bob Johnson.You know mean the bob Johnson who directed the quite performance last weekend?That‟s right.But she is so famous. How to get to meet her?Well, you know have a programming hind the printedI thought I made a mistakes, you know , type the graphical.Wait a minute, you were actually reading the word?Well, I will so caught up a performance that I never even look the program.I‟d like to follow the test what I listening.

As the industry developed so did the horse ridding contests that we called rodeos. Rodeos weren‟t always big entertainment shows that we see nowadays. The first ones were small contests started as an informal competition among people …..referred to the cowboys. Although they didn‟t include both man and woman. One do the cowboys was to guide the cattle from grass rangers in town along the railroad lines where the cows were load on the trains. The cowboys would gather near the cattle towns to compete for cattle house writer. They were Demonstrated to riding skills that they had learned as a matter of survival. And the audiences who were composed mainly of other cowboys who watch the competitive since they knew what‟s eventual all about. Rodeos contest took a different turn in the 1890‟s . when organizers began to hold a cowboys sports during yearly every agriculture affairs. What was different with the audience it consist mostly people who were unfamiliar with the life on the range. They were amazed by the skills of riders and intelligence of horses. The rodeos atevery cultural affairs became so popular that the racher and business people begin to organize rodeos as independent events separate from affairs. The organizers builtlarge …and earn money by requiring spectators to pay for the admition. More and more notable rodeos held annually in wem. It called frontier days. While “frontier days” is not the first independent rodeos, it is the oldest annually show taking for it each year since 1897.40. What is the topic mainly about?41. What can be infer about the early radio?42. what is the significant about the frontier daysbiological classWe‟ve been looking at fear from biological perspective. And someone asked whether the dependence to be fearful is genetic. Some study done with mice indicate that mammals do inherit fearfulness to some degree. In one study for instance, a group of mice were placed in the bright lit open boxes with no hiding places. Some of the mice wondered around the bars and didn‟t appear to be bothered about being so exposed. But other mice didn‟t move. They sit…against one wall, which indicate they were afraid. Well, fearful mice or you might say anxious mice like ones who stayed in one place. When mice like this were bred with one another repeatedly, after about 12 or so generation, then all of the offspring show similar signs for fearfulness. And even when the new born mouse from this generation was raised by a mother and with other mice were not fearful, that mice still tend to be fearful as the result. Now, why is this? Well, it‟s thought that the specific gene in animal body have influenced on the anxious behavior. These genes that are associated with particular nerve cell receptors in brain. And the degree of overall fearful mice in the mammal seem to depend in the large parton the presence or absence of these nerve cell receptors. And this appears to apply to humans as well by the way. But while the tendency towards anxiety and fear may well be an inherited trait, but the specific form that the fear takes has more to do individual environment. So a particular fear like the fearful of snakes or the fearful of spiders is not genetic. But overall the dependence to have fearful response is.43. what is the talk mainly about?44. how did some of the mice in the study demstrated that they were afraid?45. according to the professor, what contribute to a mammal tendency to befearful?46. why does the prof. mentions snakes and spiders?Listen to a part of talk in the geology class.One type of natural spring geography is interested in artesian spring. Hikingthrough the woods some of you are surprised to see water flowing from the opening ground. That will no more ever. That may be artesian spring. To help you understand whywater might flow like this from underground, I …d like to explain two basiccondition necessary for their formation. The first condition is the water…..be contained in an aquifer. An aquifer is an underground layer of rock sediment thathas pores or holes in it. And this pores rock allows water to flow through itfreely. The aquifer must be inclined so that the over the surface of theground. Rain water enter this through exposed and traveled downward to thelower portion of the aquifer. The second condition is that above and belowthe aquifer there must be layer of pores or clay. Either called aquicludes,and they block or hinder the flow of water. Aquicludes prevent water fromdrilling out of aquifer. So, let us go back to our tension spring. Thereusually located above the ground near the lower and wind …… aquifer. Aartesian spring there places some hole crack stand from the ground surface,down through the Aquicludes and into the aquifer. Now the rain water thathad drilled into the aquifer makes expose up …..created pressure at thelow …...so if there is crack in the rock, a crack that run from theaquifer to the surface, then the pressure pushes the water up through it.and water….. out of the c spring.47. What is the topic mainly about?48. Why are the aquicludes important to the development of the artesian spring?49. According to the prof., how does water in the aquifer reach the ground surface?50. What does the prof. Say about the pressure?。
