全新版大学英语第二版听说教程2（unit1~7）答案

全新版⼤学英语第⼆版听说教程2（unit1~7）答案Unit 1 SportsPart AListening StrategyIdentifying NumbersNumbers appear very often in every kind of listening material. The ability to catch the exact numbers spoken in English is an important but difficult skill for a Chinese learner. A good way is to practice over and over again the pronunciation of the numbers, particularly the different ways to say thirteen and thirty, fourteen and forty, etc. It also helps to practice writing down the numbers you hear quickly in numerical forms, without translating them into Chinese.You’re going to hear a passage about Michael Jordan, a retired American professional basketball player. Listen carefully and fill in the blanks with the missing numbers.Michael Jordan is the greatest basketball player of all time. He was born on Feb. 1) 17, 2) 1963, in Brooklyn, New York. He is 3) 1.98 meters tall and weighs 4) 216 pounds. Jordan joined the Chicago Bulls team for the 5) 1984 season. In the 6) 1986 season he shot 7) 3041 points, the 8) third highest score ever. He was named NBA Slam Dunk Champion (扣篮冠军) in 9) 1987 and won the Most Valuable Player Award in 10) 1988, an honor repeated 11) four times in the next 12) ten years to 13) 1998. Jordan guided his team to win 14) six NBA championships during the 15) 1990s, scoring 16) 45 points during the 17) sixth and last game of the 18) 1998 NBA finals. In 19) 1999, he was named the greatest North American athlete of the 20th century.Jordan left the NBA at the beginning of the 1993-1994 NBA season to pursue a career in baseball. Since his baseball game wasn’t quite as good as his basketball games, he finally gave it up to rejoin the Bulls in 1995. Yet, after playing for 20) five more years, he once again announced his retirement in 21) 1999. But he returned for two more NBA games in 22) 2001 as a member of the Washington Wizards.Part BPre-listening TaskQuestions for DiscussionYou are going to talk about sports. Read the following questions and discuss them with your partner.1. Do you like sports? What is your favorite sport?2. What sports do most young people go in for?3. What sports are suitable for old people?4. Do you like jogging? Why or why not?5. Why do people need to play sports?Demo:2. What sports do most young people go in for?Well, people in different parts of the world may prefer different kinds of sports. For example, many Chinese people play ping-pong or table tennis, and it is considered to be our national sport. Chinese ping-pong players have won numerous championships in world competitions, which boosts the enthusiasm for the game among young people in China. However, in North America, many young people like playing American football and basketball. Almost every teenager has his or her own idol in these games. For example, Michael Jordan has a lot of fans in theAdditional Question for DiscussionWhat do you know about the Olympic Games?Demo:The Olympic Games are one of the most important international events in the world today. The modern Olympic Games arenamed for athletic contests held in ancient Greece for almost 12 centuries. They were banned in AD 394 but were revived and made international in 1896. The Winter Games were added in 1924. World War I and World War II forced cancellation of the Olympics in 1916, 1940, and 1944, but they resumed in 1948 and are held every four years. After 1992 the Winter and Summer Games were no longer held within the same calendar year. Winter Games were scheduled for 1994, after only a two-year interval, and every four years thereafter. The Summer Games were scheduled for 1996, and every four years thereafter. Beijing successfully hosted the 2008 Olympics.Language FocusHere are some sentences and structures that you might find useful in discussing the above questions.●I like sports a lot / very much.●I enjoy / am keen on / am fond of playing sports.●I like swimming / jogging / fishing / tennis, etc.●My favorite sport is basketball / volleyball / football, etc.●Young people go in for such sports as running / playing basketball / tennis / football, etc.●Jogging / Walking / Fishing is good for old people.●Jogging is considered a healthy sport for both the young and the old / people of all ages.●Many people begin jogging because they believe it is a very good form of exercise / can make their heartsstronger / can help them lose weight.●Jogging against the cold wind is also a test of one’s will power.●Playing sports can help us to relax.●Sitting in a chair all day has made me very lazy.●I can get my figure back if I play a sport.●I can make new friends when I play sports.●People play sports because they want to keep fit / live an active life.●Playing a sport we like is an essential part of our life.Listening TasksWhy Don’t You Join Me at the Gym Sometime?Word Bankgym n. a special hall or room with equipment for doing physical exercise 体育馆head v. to go to 到……去cycle v. to ride a bicycle 骑⾃⾏车stay in shape to keep a good figure 保持体形work out to exercise to improve physical fitness 进⾏健⾝锻炼guest pass a card or permit giving authorization for the holder’s friend (a guest) to enter or have access to a place 贵宾卡Script:Peter: Hi Laura.

But recentlyI have failed to keep up with football.W: Now you’re busy with your golf games.Q: What do you know about the man from the conversation?Unit 2 Food and DrinksPart AListening StrategyListening “Between the Lines”People do not always say directly what they mean. Very often, we have to listen “between the lines”. The English language offers many ways for people to imply, rather than directly state, their meaning. To find out what a speaker really means, wecan rely on such things as the context, the meaning of an idiom, and the intonation used. For example, if someone says “I have an essay to write” in answer to an invitation to go somew here, we can infer from the context that he cannot accept the invitation. And if someone says “Andrew passed with flying colors” in reply to an inquiry about how Andrew did on a test, we can infer from the meaning of the idiom “to pass with flying colors” that Andrew did very well on the test. Often, intonation also helps to reveal the real meaning of a message. For example, “He is very clever” said with an ironic tone means just the opposite.You are going to hear eight short conversations between two speakers. Listen carefully and write down “Yes” or “No” to each of the following questions.1. Q: Does the woman enjoy the food in that restaurant? Yes2. Q: Is the man satisfied with the restaurant’s service? No3. Q: Do the children like the cake? Yes4. Q: Does the man like chicken best? No5. Q: Does the woman like the wine? Yes6. Q: Does John want a soda? No7. Q: Does the man like the fish? No8. Q: Will Sue eat out with the man tonight? NoScript:1. M: Have you ever been to that big restaurant opposite the school gate?W: Yes, many times. Whenever my friends come to visit me, I’ll take them there to eat.2. W: Is there something wrong, sir?M: My wife and I have been kept waiting for nearly an hour for our meal.3. W: Where is the cake I made this morning?M: We ate it, mom. Can you make another one for us?4. W: I hear you like chicken very much.M: Next to beef.5. M: Have you tried this wine before?W: No, never. It’s my first time, but it’s really to my taste.6. M: John, do you want a soda?W: Soda? I think it tastes like medicine.7. W: Why, the fish is left almost untouched.M: Well, it would be good if it were less salty.8. M: Hi, Sue, would you like to eat out tonight?W: Oh, I’d really like to, but m y sister may come to visit me this evening.Part BPre-listening TaskQuestions for DiscussionYou are going to talk about food and drinks. Read the following questions and discuss them with your partner.1. Where do you usually have your meals? What do you think of the food there?2. What do you usually have for breakfast, lunch and supper?3. Do you sometimes eat out? What kind of place do you like to go to?4. What is your favorite food / dish / drink?5. How do you like health food?Demo:4. What is your favorite food? (Why do you like it?)I am not picky about food and it is hard for me to decide which food I like most. Meat, bread, vegetables, fruit, fish …, I like them all. It can be said that my favorites change with the season. For example, in spring, my favorite food includes vegetables and fruit. I like them because they are tasty, nutritious and easy to digest.Additional Question for DiscussionAre there any differences or similarities between Chinese table manners and Western table manners?Demo:Chinese table manners are different from Western table manners in several aspects. One example is that, to show kindness and hospitality (好客), many Chinese would put food with their own chopsticks (筷⼦) onto their guests’ bowls or plates even though the guests indicate they do not want the food or so much of it. However, very few Westerners would do this. They would ask their guests to help themselves to the food they like.Language FocusHere are some sentences and structures that you might find useful in discussing the above questions.●I usually have meals at the school canteen. The food there is not expensive / good / delicious / not bad.●There is always a variety of things to choose from / little choice.●I sometimes eat out at a fast food restaurant / snack bar for a change.●Hamburgers and French fries are my favorites.●I don’t like fast food.

How have you been?Peter: Oh, OK, I guess. And you?Kate: Not too bad. We haven’t seen each other for a while, have we?Peter: No, we haven’t. So that makes me ask. Do you have any plan for this Saturday?Kate: No, not yet, I don’t think so. Why?Peter: What do you think about getting together and going out to dinner this weekend?Kate: That would be great. Do you have any particular place in mind?Peter: Well, I think I’d like to eat something that’s not too heavy. I’ve been eating a little too much lately. Kate: Me too. Peter: I love Italian food, but maybe we should skip that this time. They always seem to serve so much food in Italian restaurants, and you end up eating more than you wanted to.Kate: Chinese food would be good.Peter: Yes, or maybe some Japanese sushi. That style uses a lot of natural flavors, and not much oil or cream or heavy sauces.Kate: Yes, either of those choices would be good. Let’s just meet on Saturday night, and decide then where to eat. Peter: That’s fine by me.Language and Culture Notes1. Background informationIn large cities such as New York and London, you can always find different styles of cuisine. And you have a variety of choices as to what to eat, from French food, Italian food, Chinese food, Japanese food, and Mexican food, to Malaysian or Thai food. Italian cuisine uses a lot of tomato sauce, cheese, and cream, and its food is more on the heavy side. Pizza and pasta (for example, spaghetti and macaroni) are popular with diners. Our own Chinese cuisine is noted for its combination of color, flavor and smell, and Sichuan-style spicy food and Chinese snacks are much favored by foreigners for their delicious taste. Japanese cuisine lays great emphasis on artistic presentation of its dishes. Compared to Italian and Chinese cuisine, the Japanese style of cooking is probably lighter. It uses a lot of raw food, especially raw fish, all kinds of seafood, and soy sauce with less oil and fat.2. for a whilefor quite some time3. Do you have any particular place in mind?Do you want to go to any particular restaurant to eat? “Do you have any pa rticular … in mind?” can be used for various situations.

What counts as important details depends on the kind of information we want. Generally speaking, if we are listening to the narration of an event, we need to sharpen our ears not only for what happened, but also when and where, how and why it happened. In listening to a weather report, on the other hand, the important details we should watch out for are the current weather conditions, temperature, and weather outlook.You’re going to hear two short passages about weather. While listening, pay attention to such details as the weather conditions, temperature, weather outlook, damage caused by bad weather and so on, and write them down in note form. Then complete the exercises in your book.1. a. General weather conditions for today:Fine and pleasant.b. Temperature:High: 18 °C (64 °F)c. Weather outlook:Mostly cloudy with heavy showers moving in from the west.2. a. When did the storm start and how long did it last?It started around 8 p.m. and lasted for about three hours.b. How damaging was the storm?It caused four deaths and serious damage including a widespread power failure.Script:1. The weather today: a fine day is in store nearly everywhere, with the best of the sunshine in southern and central areas of Britain. A pleasant day, then, with long sunny periods developing. There will be light winds with a maximum temperature of 18 degrees Celsius, 64 degrees Fahrenheit.Look at the outlook for the next few days: it will become mostly cloudy with heavy showers moving in from the west.2. A storm in Changchun, capital of Northeast China’s Jilin Province, claimed four lives on Sunday. The storm lasted about three hours from around 8 p.m. The winds reached speeds of over a hundred miles an hour, causing serious damage and a widespread power failure.Part BPre-listening TaskQuestions for DiscussionYou are going to talk about weather and weather forecasts. Read the following questions and discuss them with your partner.1. What’s the weather like now?2. What’s the weather forecast for today?3. How do you get weather information?4. What kind of climate do you like or dislike?5. Which season do you like best? Why?Demo:4. What kind of climate do you like or dislike?I like the climate of Shenyang City in the northern part of China. In spring it’s neither too hot nor too cold, with the temperaturebetween 40-50 degrees Fahrenheit. The summer there is cool and pleasant. In the fall the leaves change colors with the temperature around 60-70 degrees Fahrenheit. Perhaps the winter there is the best time, for the scenery is gorgeous. The snow is like powder covering the ground everywhere and that makes it an amazing place for skiing and snowboarding.Additional Question for DiscussionDo you think it is possible or impossible to give accurate weather forecasts?Demo:I think it is too much to ask for accurate weather forecasts at present. There are still quite a few things about the weather that we just don’t understand. We have to further develop meteorological (⽓象的) science and related technologies. There is a long way to go before we can hope to have very accurate weather forecasts.Language FocusHere are some sentences and structures that you might find useful in discussing the above questions.●It’s fine / sunny / warm / rainy / cloudy / snowy / windy / freezing / foggy / dry / chilly today.●The air is close / oppressive.● A storm is coming up / building up / in the making.●It’s raining off and on / cats and dogs.●The rain / snow has stopped / let up.●It’s going to cloud over.●It’s going to be a cold day with damaging northwesterly winds / hot and humid day with a high of 36 degreesCentigrade.●It seems to be clearing up.●The weather forecast says it’s going to be clear and sunny / muggy and humid / cold and wet.●The high will be … and the low will be …●The temperature will reach a h igh of ... in the afternoon / drop to a low of … at night.●I often tune in to the radio or TV / read newspapers /go online to check on weather conditions.●I like mild / warm / cool / dry climate.●I dislike / cannot stand hot / humid / wet / very dry / bitterly cold climate.●I like spring best. In spring the weather is mild and pleasant, and nature is at its loveliest.●Summer is my favorite season because I like swimming / enjoy watching the glorious sunrise and sunset on asummer day.●I like autumn very much because I love watching the change of color in leaves / the weather is just right,neither cold nor hot / it is the season of harvest.●Winter is the season of snow and ice. In snowy weather I can go skiing in the mountains / like to play throwingsnowballs with my friends.Listening TasksDid You Hear the Weather Forecast?Word Bankannual a. once a year 年度的。

Finding the Sequence of Events in a Narrative When we listen to a narrative, it is important to follow the sequence of events so that we do not lose track of how a story or an event begins, develops and ends. A useful way is to pay attention to time expressions, such as “at first”, “in the beginning”, “by that time”, “by then”, “later”, “after a few years”, “after a while”, “soon”, and “in the end”. We should also listen for specific periods of time and dates or years like “in the 20th century”, “in 2009”, “on May 20th”, etc. If we put together the information that follows such time expressions we can usually follow the sequence of events in a narrative.

Very often, we have to listen “between the lines”. The English language offers many ways for pe ople to imply, rather than directly state, their meaning. To find out what a speaker really means, we can rely on such things as the context, the meaning of an idiom, and the intonation used. For example, if someone says “I have an essay to write” in answer to an invitation to go somew here, we can infer from the context that he cannot accept the invitation. And if someone says “Andrew passed with flying colors” in reply to an inquiry about how Andrew did on a test, we can infer from the meaning of the idiom “to pass with flying colors” that Andrew did very well on the test. Often, intonation also helps to reveal the real meaning of a message. For example, “He is very clever” said with an ironic tone means just the opposite.You are going to hear eight short conversations between two speakers. Listen carefully and write down “Yes” or “No” to each of the following questions.1. Q: Does the woman enjoy the food in that restaurant? Yes2. Q: Is the man satisfied with the restaurant’s service? No3. Q: Do the children like the cake? Yes4. Q: Does the man like chicken best? No5. Q: Does the woman like the wine? Yes6. Q: Does John want a soda? No7. Q: Does the man like the fish? No8. Q: Will Sue eat out with the m an tonight? NoScript:1. M: Have you ever been to that big restaurant opposite the school gate?W: Yes, many times. Whenever my friends come to visit me, I’ll take them there to eat.2. W: Is there something wrong, sir?M: My wife and I have been kept waiting for nearly an hour for our meal.3. W: Where is the cake I made this morning?M: We ate it, mom. Can you make another one for us?4. W: I hear you like chicken very much.M: Next to beef.5. M: Have you tried this wine before?W: No, never. It’s my first time, but it’s really to my taste.6. M: John, do you want a soda?W: Soda? I think it tastes like medicine.7. W: Why, the fish is left almost untouched.M: Well, it would be good if it were less salty.8. M: Hi, Sue, would you like to eat out tonight?W: Oh, I’d really like to, but m y sister may come to visit me this evening.Part BPre-listening TaskQuestions for DiscussionYou are going to talk about food and drinks. Read the following questions and discuss them with your partner.1. Where do you usually have your meals? What do you think of the food there?2. What do you usually have for breakfast, lunch and supper?3. Do you sometimes eat out? What kind of place do you like to go to?4. What is your favorite food / dish / drink?5. How do you like health food?Demo:4. What is your favorite food? (Why do you like it?)I am not picky about food and it is hard for me to decide which food I like most. Meat, bread, vegetables, fruit, fish …, I like them all. It can be said that my favorites change with the season. For example, in spring, my favorite food includes vegetables and fruit. I like them because they are tasty, nutritious and easy to digest.Additional Question for DiscussionAre there any differences or similarities between Chinese table manners and Western table manners?Demo:Chinese table manners are different from Western table m anners in several aspects. One example is that, to show kindness and hospitality (好客), many Chinese would put food with their own chopsticks (筷子) onto their guests’ bowls or plates ev en though the guests indicate they do not want the food or so much of it. However, very few Westerners would do this. They would ask their guests to help themselves to the food they like.Language FocusHere are some sentences and structures that you might find useful in discussing the above questions.●I usually have meals at the school canteen.

How have you been?Peter: Oh, OK, I guess. And you?Kate: Not too bad. We haven’t seen each other for a while, have we?Peter: No, we haven’t. So that makes me ask.

That style uses a lot of natural flavors, and not much oil or cream or heavy sauces.Kate: Yes, either of those choices would be good. Let’s just meet on Saturday night, and decide then where to eat.Peter: That’s fine by me.Language and Culture Notes1. Background informationIn large cities such as New York and London, you can always find different styles of cuisine. And you have a variety of choices as to what to eat, from French food, Italian food, Chinese food, Japanese food, and Mexican food, to Malaysian or Thai food. Italian cuisine uses a lot of tomato sauce, cheese, and cream, and its food is more on the heavy side. Pizza and pasta (for example, spaghetti and macaroni) are popular with diners. Our own Chinese cuisine is noted for its combination of color, flavor and smell, and Sichuan-style spicy food and Chinese snacks are much favored by foreigners for their delicious taste. Japanese cuisine lays great emphasis on artistic presentation of its dishes. Compared to Italian and Chinese cuisine, the Japanese style of cooking is probably lighter. It uses a lot of raw food, especially raw fish, all kinds of seafood, and soy sauce with less oil and fat.2. for a whilefor quite some time3. Do you have any particular place in mind?Do you want to go to any particular restaurant to eat? “Do you have any pa rticular … in mind?” can be used for various situations.

What counts as important details depends on the kind of information we want. Generally speaking, if we are listening to the narration of an event, we need to sharpen our ears not only for what happened, but also when and where, how and why it happened. In listening to a weather report, on the other hand, the important details we should watch out for are the current weather conditions, temperature, and weather outlook.You’re going to hear two short passages about weather. While listening, pay attention to such details as the weather conditions, temperature, weather outlook, damage caused by bad weather and so on, and write them down in note form. Then complete the exercises in your book.1. a. General weather conditions for today:Fine and pleasant.b. Temperature:High: 18 °C (64 °F)c. Weather outlook:Mostly cloudy with heavy showers moving in from the west.2. a. When did the storm start and how long did it last?It started around 8 p.m. and lasted for about three hours.b. How damaging was the storm?It caused four deaths and serious damage including a widespread power failure.Script:1. The weather today: a fine day is in store nearly ev erywhere, with the best of the sunshine in southern and central areas of Britain. A pleasant day, then, with long sunny periods developing. There will be li ght winds with a maximum temperature of 18 degrees Celsius, 64 degrees Fahrenheit.Look at the outlook for the next few days: it will become mostly cloudy with heavy showers moving in from the west.2. A storm in Changchun, capital of Northeast China’s Jilin Province, claimed four lives on Sunday. The storm lasted about three hours from around 8 p.m. The winds reached speeds of over a hundred miles an hour, causing serious damage and a widespread power failure.Part BPre-listening TaskQuestions for DiscussionYou are going to talk about weather and weather forecasts. Read the following questions and discuss them with your partner.1. What’s the weather like now?2. What’s the weather forecast for today?3. How do you get weather information?4. What kind of climate do you like or dislike?5. Which season do you like best? Why?Demo:4. What kind of climate do you like or dislike?I like the clim ate of Shenyang City in the northern part of China. In spring it’s neither too hot nor too cold, with the temperature between 40-50 degrees Fahrenheit. The summer there is cool and pleasant. In the fall the leav es change colors with the temperature around 60-70 degrees Fahrenheit. Perhaps the winter there is the best time, for the scenery is gorgeous. The snow is like powder covering the ground everywhere and that makes it an amazing place for skiing and snowboarding.Additional Question for DiscussionDo you think it is possible or impossible to give accurate weather forecasts?Demo:I think it is too much to ask for accurate weather forecasts at present. There are still quite a few things about the weather that we just don’t understand. We have to further develop meteorological (气象的) science and related technologies. There is a long way to go before we can hope to have very accurate weather forecasts.Language FocusHere are some sentences and structures that you might find useful in discussing the above questions.。

Instead, he smiled, moved closer and said,”I know you will go to Discount Dan to look at the price tags. That’s perfectly understandable. I do the same. In fact, they sell the same stuff as we do. But if you buy things there, there is something you will not get, and that is me. I come with everything I sell. I’ve been in the business for thirty years and in a few year s’ time I’m going to give my store to my daughter and son-in-law. I hope they will carry on the family business.

He made his mark with his article on the rough working conditions endured by the people inside the Mickey and Minnie costumes at Walt Disney World. Later he became a staff writer for the Wall Street Journal.In 1998, when the famous advice columnist, Ann Landers, quit her job at the Chicago Sun-Times, the paper launched a nationwide contest to find her replacement, Jeffrey Zaslow applied. Among the 12,000 contestants, women outnumbered men nine to one, and most of them had seen a lot more of life than Zaslow, who was 28 and not married. When he reached the semifinals his editors at the Journal ran a headline:”why he’ll never make it”. But Jeffrey did make it in the finals.Today, thirteen years later, his column, “all that Zazz”, is read by thousands of readers in the Chicago area, his years in the advice business left him with deep appreciation for people and their problems. He is also greatly moved by the generosity, sincerity and good nature of his readers,” wonderful people,” he says,” do outnumber terrible people in this world. I have much more faith in my fellow men than I hand before, and I’ve read plenty of letters to back that up.”Questions:1.When did Zaslow start writing stories?2.How old was Zaslow when his column became popular with readers in Chicago?3.What is the major benefit Zaslow has got from his years in the advice business?4.What can be inferred from the passage?Unit 10Part a1.Earthquake 3 years ago turkey 10,000 34,0002.Explosion early this morning 108 38 11Part bE11.Three months ago2.In the middle of a jungle3.

All of a sudden the building shook and the elevator stopped and began to swing to and fro. Although the men were not aware of it m they had only 100 minutes to get out of the damage tower before it would crumble to dust.Soon smoke began coming into the elevator. The men realized that something was wrong. They forced the doors open only to find a wall in front of them! The wall had the number 50 on it and they knew they were at the 50th floor. But their elevator normally did not stop there, so there was no opening for them to escape. Jan decided that they would have to make their own.Soon smoke began coming into the elevator. The men realized that something was wrong; they forced the doors open only to find a wall in front of them! The wall had the number 50 on it and they knew they were at the 50th floor. But their elevator normally did not stop there, so there was no opening for them to escape. Jan decided that they would have to make their own.Knowing the wall was made of a material that could be cut through, Jan grabbed his 18-inch squeegee, and began chopping away at the wall. When he felt tired, others helped.Starting with one small hole, they cut through the three-inch deep wall and then widened it. Then they kicked the wall, two at the same time. The wall cracked apart. They saw before them a 2-by-4 inch metal beam and a tile wall! Refusing to give up, the desperate men bent the beam, knocked a hole through the tiled, and then made the opening big enough to squeeze through. Astonished, firefighters took them to the nearest staircase and they ran down flight after flight.

I was doing a lot of e-mail and I got started through that really.W: So there’s a difference between the Internet and e-mail?M: Yeah, e-mail is just like having a mailbox in your computer and the Internet is like the biggest research library in the world, but there’s more than that.W: Well, tell me a bit more about that.M: Ok. Basically there are three things you can use the Internet for: finding information, joining in news groups, and chatting online, like on a telephone, only you type your messages rather than say them.W: And you use it for all three?M: Not really. I use it mostly for finding information, you know, looking through university libraries, things like that.W: Uh huh.M: And I chat online with my brother in New York.W: Why don’t you just call him?M: Well it’s a lot cheaper.W: How often do you go online?M: Let me see.

Two years of drought had killed their cattle and left the tribe with nothing to eat. Christina wanted to help them.For fun, she taught the children how to paint and the children came up with amazing drawings of animals. Christina decided to turn the paintings into cards and sell them back home. She paid the children $200 of her own money for the pictures,” that fed them for two and a half weeks,” she said.It was then that she got the idea of paying the tribe people for their crafts, which she’d sell in local stores. Her goal was to raise enough money to buy a cow for each family and to dam the nearby springs so the tribe would never be troubled by droughts again. Obtaining a loan from her parents, she started the Samburu project.Now the men and women there are making beaded bracelets and other ornaments. And the children are painting giraffes and zebras.Christina sets aside every penny of profit for the tribe. Sales during last year’s Christmas season yielded $10,000 in profit. She was able to collect enough money to buy the cows, build the dam and even pay the medical bills of a girl who had a brain tumor and boy badly burned in a fire. Christina’s enthusiasm is catching. When her friends learned about this, they also wanted to buy a cow. That gave her another idea: people could donate $50 to purchase a cow for the Samburu people. By now 67 people have done so.Christina adds what she can to the kitty. “I take the money I would spend on CDs or a soda and throw it into a jar for the Samburu.”Questions:1.Which of the following is true of Christina?2.What did Christina do to help the Samburu tribe people?3.What did she do with the profit money from sales during the last Christmas season?4.What can we learn from the story?Unit 14Part aTimes: 1893 1924 1930sEvents: kindergarten teacher’s students title goodChildren to greet their teacher book of music added writer unknown Appeared movies radio shows permission won the copyrightHappy birthday to you different lyrics publicly gets paidPart bE11.Parking space grocery cart in line2.Phone-in drive-through market3.Drive-through convenience banks fast food catalog shopping4.Save time5.Goods ordered good quality €1.50 each otherE2In the item numbers of the goods you orderMakes a print-out of your listThe goods on your list in a warehouseDrive up to the market, and punch your code into a terminalWrite a checkPart c BCCDTape scriptIn America there is a native notion that children grow up and leave home when they’re 18, but the truth is far from that. Today 59% of men and 47% of women between 18 and 24 depend on their parents for housing. Most college students now live at home. Also, 14% of men and 8% of women aged 25 to 34 are dependent on their parents for housing. “This is part of a major shift in the middle class. “Declares a sociologist at northwestern university.Analysts cite a variety of reasons for this return to the nest. First, the marriage age is rising. Second, a high divorce rate and a declining remarriage rate are sending economically pressed and emotionally battered survivors back to parental shelters. What’s more, for some, the expense of an away-from-home college education has become so high that many students now attend local schools. Even after graduation, young people tend to stay home because of rising housing costs. Sallie, 26, moved back to her parents’ home to save enough money to buy a car. Her job as a teacher provided only enough money to cover car payments and an additional loan she had taken out. Once the loan was paid off, she decided to start a modeling career. Living at home, says Sallie, continues to give her security and moral support.Lucille returned home with her two daughters after a divorce. That was 12 years ago. She is 37 now, and she her daughters still live with Lucille’s mother, who has welcomed having three generations in the same house.Just how long should adult children live with their parents before moving on? Most psychologists feel lengthy homecomings are a mistake, offspring, struggling to establish separate identities, can feel a sense of defeat and failure. And aging parents, who should be enjoying some financial and personal freedom, find themselves burdened with responsibilities.Questions:1.What does the passage mainly discuss?2.What do you know about Sallie?3.What can you learn from the passage?4.What is one of the reasons why most psychologists disapprove of lengthy homecomings?Test1Part a BCBCB CABPart b DBDC CBDPart cStocks exhibition techniques activities research modemSoftware delivery time for e-mail from Europe to the USA is about 10 secondsWhat’s really extraordinary about the internet is the amount and variety of information available Services are also available that allow you to do your banking, reserve airline tickets, and evenshop for a Mother’s Day gift.Part d CDC CCAD BCATest2Part a DCDCD BCAPart b DDA BCBCPart cForecast unusual fortunately extreme rarely global rush People enjoy discussing the snow, complaining about the coldContrary to popular opinion, it does not rain all the timeThanks to the rain, Britain has a rich countryside, which is famous for its deep green color Part d ADB BAC CADB。
