2019年年6⽉英语六级听⼒原⽂第⼀套完整版Part III Listening ComprehensionSection A 短对话Directions: In this section, you will hear 8 short conversations and 2 long conversations. At the end of each conversation, one or more questions will be asked about what was said. Both the conversation and the questions will be spoken only once. After each question there will be a pause. During the pause, you must read the four choices marked A), B), C) and D), and decide which is the best answer. Then mark the corresponding letter on Answer Sheet 2 with a single line through the centre.11.W: What's wrong with your phone, Gary? I tried to call you all night yesterday.M: I'm sorry. No one's able to get through yesterday. My telephone was disconnected by the phone company.Q: What does the woman ask the man about?12.W: I finally found a really nice apartment that's within my price range.M: Congratulations! Affordable housing is rare in this city. I've been looking for a suitable place since I got here six months ago.Q: What does the man mean?13.M: I got this in my mailbox today, but I don't know what it is. Do you have any idea?W: Oh, that's your number for the new photocopier. It acquires an access code. Everyone got one.Q: What do we learn from the conversation?14.W: Jane told me that you'll be leaving at soon. Is it true?M: Yeah, my wife's maternity leave is close to an end. And since she wants to go back to work, I've decided to take a year off to raise the baby.Q: What does the man mean?15M: We'll never find a parking space here. What about dropping you at thesouth gate and I'll find parking somewhere else. W: Well, OK. It looks like everyone in town came to the mall today.Q: What does the woman mean?16W: When will the computers be back online?M: Probably not until tomorrow. The problem is more complicated than I thought.Q: What does the man mean?17M: Did you catch Professor Smith on TV last night?W: I almost missed it, but my mother just happened to be watching at home and gave me a call.Q: What does the woman imply?18M: May I get this prescription refilled?W: I'm sorry, sir, but we can't give you a refill on that. You'll have to get a new prescription.Q: What can we infer from the conversation?W: Well, it’s the South Theater Company. They want to know if we’d be interested in spo nsoring a tour they want to make to East Asia.M: East Asia? uhh… and how much are they hoping to get from us?W: Well, the letter mentions 20,000 pounds, but I don’t know if they might settle for us.M: Do they say what they would cover? Have they anything specific in mind?W: No, I think they are just asking all the firms in tongue for as much money as they think they’ll give.M: And we are worth 20, 000 pounds, right?W: It seems so.M: Very flattering. But I am not awfully happy with the idea. What we get out of it?W: Oh, good publicity I suppose. So what I suggest is not that we just give them a sum of money, but that we offer to pay for something specific like travel or something, and that in return, we ask for our name to be printed prominently in the program, and that they give us free advertising space in it.M: But the travel bill would be enormous, and we could never manage that.W: I know. But why don’t we offer to pay for the printing of the programs ourselves on condition that on the front cove r there's something like This program is presented with the compliments of Norland Electronics, and free advertising of course.M: Good idea. Well, let’s get back to them and ask what the program they want will cost. Then we can see if we are interested or not.Questions 19-21 are based on the conversation you have just heard.19. What do we learn about the South Theater Company?20. What benefit does the woman say their firm can get by sponsoring the Theater Company?21. What does the woman suggest they do instead of paying the South Theater Company’s travel expenses? Conversation TwoW: Rock stars now face a new hazard --- voice abuse. After last week's announcement that Phil Collins might give up touring because live concerts are ruining his voice, doctors are counseling stars about the dos and don'ts of voice care. Here in the studio today, we have Mr. Paul Phillips, an expert from the High Field Hospital. Paul, what advice would you give to singers facing voice problems?M: If pop singers have got voice problems, they really need to be more selective about where they work. They shouldn't work in smoky atmospheres. They also need to think about resting their voices after a show. Something else they need to be careful about is medicines. Aspirin, for example, singers should avoid aspirin. It thins the blood. And if a singer coughs, this can result in the bruising of the vocal cords.W: And is it true that some singers use drugs before concerts to boost their voices when they have voice problems? M: Yes, this does happen on occasion. They are easily-available on the continent and they are useful if a singer has problems with his vocal cords and has to sing that night. But if they are taken regularly, they cause a thinning of the voice muscle. Most pop singers suffer from three things: lack of training, overuse and abuse of the voice, especially when they are young. They have difficult lives. When they go on tour, they do a vast number of concerts, singing in smoky places.W: So, what would you advise the singers to do?M: Warm you voice up before a show and warm it down after.Questions 22-25 are based on the conversation you have just heard.22. What does last week's announcement say about rock star, Phil Collins?23. What does Paul Philips say about aspirin?24. What does Paul Philips say about young pop singers?25. What are the speakers mainly talking about?Would you trust a robot to park your car? The question will confront New Yorkers in February as the city's first robotic parking opens in Chinatown.The technology has been successfully applied overseas, but the only other public robotic garage in the United States has been troublesome, dropping vehicles and trapping cars because of technical problems.Nonetheless, the developers of the Chinatown garage are confident with the technology and are counting on it to squeeze 67 cars in an apartment-building basement that would otherwise fit only 24, accomplished by removing a maneuver space normally required.A human-shaped robot won't be stepping into your car to drive it. Rather, the garage itself does the parking. The driver stops the car on a flat platform and gets out. The platform is lowered into the garage, and it is then transported to a vacant parking space by a computer-controlled device similar to an elevator that also runs sideways.There is no human supervision, but an attendant will be on hand to accept cash and explain the system to newly users. Parking rates will be attracted about $400 monthly or $25 per day, according to Ari Milstein, the director of planning for Automation Parking Systems, which is the U.S. subsidiary of a German company. This company has built automated garages in several countries overseas and in the United States for residents of a Washington, D.C. apartment building.Questions 26 to 29 are based on the passage you have just heard.26. What do we learn about the robot parking in the U.S. so far?27. What advantage does robotic parking have according to the developers?28. What does the attendant do in the automated garage?29. What does the company say about the parking rate?Passage 2A recent study shows that meat consumption is one of the main ways that human can damage the environment, second only to the use of motor vehicles. So how can eating meat have a negative effect on the environment? For a start, all animals, such as cows, pigs and sheep, always gas limed methane, which is the second most common green house gas after carbon dioxide. Many environmental experts now believe that methane is more responsible for global warming than carbon dioxide. It is estimated that 25% of all methane that released into the atmosphere coming from farm animals. Another way in which meat production affects the environment is through the use of water and land. 2,500 gallons of water are needed to produce one pound of beef. While 20 gallons of water are need to produce one pound of wheat. One acre of farmland use to for raising cows can produce 250 pounds of beef. One acre of farmland use to for crop production can produce 1,500 pounds of tomatoes. Many people now say the benefits of switching to vegetarian diet which excludes meat and fish. Not just for health reasons, but also because it plays a vital role in protecting theenvironment. However, some nutritionists advise against switching to a totally strict vegetarian diet. They believe such a diet which includes no products from animal sources can be deficient in many of the necessary vitamins and minerals our bodies need. Today many people have come to realize that help the environment and for the human race to survive, more of us will need to become vegetarian.Questions 30 to 32 are based on the passage you've just heard.30. What does the recent study show?31. What do some nutritionists say about the strict vegetarian diet?32. What does the speaker think more people need to do?Passage 3Alcoholism is a serious disease. Nearly nine million Americans alone suffer from the illness. Many scientists disagree about what the differences are between the alcohol addict and social drinker. The difference occurs when someone needs to drink.And this need gets in the way of his health or behavior. Alcohol causes a loss of judgment and alertness. After a long period, alcoholism can deteriorate the liver, the brain and other parts of the body. The illness is dangerous, because it is involved in half of all automobile accidents. Another problem is that the victim often denies being an alcohol addict and won’t get help. Solutions do exist. Many hospitals and centers help patients cope. Without the assist ance, the victim can destroy his life. He would detach himself from the routines of life. He may lose his employment, home or loved ones.All the causes of the sickness are not discovered yet. There is no standard for a person with alcoholism. Victims range in age, race, sex and background. Some groups of people are more vulnerable to the illness. People from broken homes and North American Indians are two examples. People from broken homes often lack stable lives. Indians likewise had the traditional life taken from them by white settlers who often encourage them to consume alcohol to prevent them from fighting back. The problem has now been passed on. Alcoholism is clearly present in society today. People have started to get help and information. With proper assistance, victims can put their lives together one day.Question 33 to 35 are based on the passage you have just heard.Q33. What is the problem of the victims about alcoholism according to the speaker?Q34. Why did white settlers introduce alcohol to Indians?Q35. What does the speaker seem to believe about those affected by alcoholism?Self-image is the picture you have of yourself, the sort of person you believe you are. Included in your self-image are the categories in which you place yourself, the roles you play and other similar descriptors you use to identify yourself. If you tell an acquaintance you are a grandfather who recently lost his wife and who does volunteer work on weekends, several elements of your self-image are bought to light — the roles of grandparent, widower and conscientious citizen.But self-image is more than how you picture yourself; it also involves how others see you. Three types of feedback from others are indicative of how they see us: conformation, rejection, and disconfirmation. Conformation occurs when others treat you in a manner consistent with who you believe you are.You believe you have leadership abilities and your boss put you in charge of a new work team. On the other hand, rejection occurs when others treat you in a manner that is inconsistent with yourself definition. Pierre Salinger was appointed senator from California but subsequently lost his first election. He thought he was a good public official, but the voters obviously thought otherwise— Their vote was inconsistent with his self-concept. The third type of feedback is disconfirmation, which occurs when others fail torespond to your notion of self by responding neutrally. A student writes what he thinks is an excellent composition, but the teacher writes no encouraging remarks. Rather than relying on how others classify you, consider how you identify yourself. The way in which you identify yourself is the best refection of yourself-image.附:参考答案11. Why she could not get through to him12. He has difficulty finding affordable housing13. A code number is necessary to run the copy machine14. He will stop work to take care of the baby15. The shopping center is flooded with people16.

2019大学英语六级口语考试范文朗读一

2019大学英语六级口语考试范文朗读一The Language of MusicA painter hangs his or her finished pictures on a wall, and everyone can see it. A composer writes a work, but no one can hear it until it is performed. Professional singers and players have great responsibilities, for the composer is utterly dependent on them. A student of music needs as long and as arduous a training to become a performer as a medical student needs to become a doctor. Most training is concerned with technique, for musicians have to have the muscular proficiency of an athlete or a ballet dancer. Singers practice breathing every day, as their vocal chords would be inadequate without controlled muscular support. String players practice moving the fingers of the left hand up and down, while drawing the bow to and fro with the right arm—two entirely different movements.Singers and instruments have to be able to get every note perfectly in tune. Pianists are spared this particular anxiety, for the notes are already there, waiting for them, and it is the piano tuner’s responsibility to tune the instrument for them. But they have their own difficulties; the hammers that hit the string have to be coaxed not to sound like percussion, and each overlapping tone has to sound clear.This problem of getting clear texture is one that confronts student conductors: they have to learn to know every note of the music and how it should sound, and theyhave to aim at controlling these sound with fanatical but selfless authority.Technique is of no use unless it is combined with musical knowledge and understanding. Great artists are those who are so thoroughly at home in the language of music that they can enjoy performing works written in any century.02 Schooling and EducationIt is commonly believed in United States that school is where people go to get an education. Nevertheless, it has been said that today children interrupt their education to go to school. The distinction between schooling and education implied by this remark is important.Education is much more open-ended and all-inclusive than schooling. Education knows no bounds. It can take place anywhere, whether in the shower or in the job, whether in a kitchen or on a tractor. It includes both the formal learning that takes place in schools and the whole universe of informal learning. The agents of education can range from a revered grandparent to the people debating politics on the radio, from a child to a distinguished scientist. Whereas schooling has a certain predictability, education quite often produces surprises. A chance conversation with a stranger may lead a person to discover how little is known of other religions. People are engaged in education from infancy on. Education, then, is a very broad, inclusive term. It is a lifelong process, a process that starts long before the start of school, and one that should be an integral part of one’s entire life.Schooling, on the other hand, is a specific, formalized process, whose general pattern varies little from one setting to the next. Throughout a country, children arrive at school at approximately the same time, take assigned seats, are taught by an adult, use similar textbooks, do homework, take exams, and so on. The slices of reality that are to be learned, whether they are the alphabet or an understanding of the working of government, have usually been limited by the boundaries of the subject being taught. For example, high school students know that there not likely to find out in their classes the truth about political problems in their communities or what the newest filmmakers are experimenting with. There are definite conditions surrounding the formalized process of schooling.。

You may choose a paragraph more than once.Each paragraph is marked with a letter.Answer the questions byThe Best Retailers Combine Bricks and ClicksA)Retail profits are falling sharply.Stores are closing.Malls are emptying.The depressing stories just keep coming.Reading the earnings announcements of large retail stores like Macy’s,Nordstorm,and Target is about as uplifting as a tour of an intensive care unit.The interact is apparently taking do wn yet another industry.Brick and mortar stores(实体店)seem to be going the way of the yellow pages.Sure enough,the Census Bureau just released data showing that online retail sales surged15.2percent between the first quarter of2015and the first quarter of2016.B)But before you dump all of your retail stocks,there are more facts you should consider.Looking only at that15.2percent"surge"would be misleading.It was an increase that was on a small base of6.9percent.Even when a tiny number grows by a large percentage terms,it is often still tiny.C)More than20years after the internet was opened to commerce,the Census Bureau tells us that brick and mortar sales accounted for92.3percent of retail sales in the first quarter of2016.Their data show that only0.8percent of retail sales shifted from offline to online between the beginning of2015and2016.D)So,despite all the talk about drone(无人机)deliveries to your doorstep,all the retail executives expressing anxiety over consumers going online,and even a Presidential candidate exclaiming that Amazon has a"huge antitrust problem,"the Census data suggest that physical retail is thriving.Of course,the closed stores, depressed executives,and sinking stocks suggest otherwise.What's the real story?E)Many firms operating brick and mortar stores are in trouble.The retail industry is getting“reinvented,”as we describe in our new book.Matchmakers.It’s standing in the path of what Schumpeter called a gale(大风)of creative destruction.That storm has been brewing for some time,and as it has reached gale force,most large retailers are searching for a response.As the CFO of Macy’s put it recently,“We’re frankly scratching our heads.”F)But it’s not happening as experts predicted.In the peak of the bubble,brick and mortar retail was one of those industries the internet was going to kill—and quickly.The dot.corn bust discredited most predictions of that sort and in the years that followed,conventional retailers’confidence in the future increased as Census continued to report weak online sales.And then the gale hit.G)It is becoming increasingly clear that retail reinvention isn’t a simple battle to the death between bricks and clicks.It is about devising retail models that work for people who are making increasing use of a growing array of internet-connected tools to change how they search,shop,and buy.Creative retailers are using the new technologies to innovate just about everything stores do from managing inventory,to marketing,to getting paid.H)More than drones dropping a new supply of underwear on your doorstep,Apple’s massively successful brick-and-mortar-and-glass retail stores and Amazon’s small steps in the same direction are what should keep old-fashioned retailers awake at night.Not to mention the large number of creative new retailers,like Bonobos, that are blending online and offline experiences in creative ways.I)Retail reinvention is not a simple process,and it’s also not happening on what used to be called"Internet Time." Some internet-driven changes have happened quickly,of course.Craigslist quickly overtook newspaper classified ads and turned newspaper economics upside down.But many widely anticipated changes weren’t quick,and some haven’t really started.With the benefit of hindsight(后见之明),it looks like the interact will transform the economy at something like the pace of other great inventions like electricity.B2B commerce,for example,didn’t move mainly online by2005as many had predicted in2000,nor even by2016,but that doesn’t mean it won’t do so over the next few decades.J)But the gale is still blowing.The sudden decline in foot traffic in recent years,even though it hasn’t been accompanied by a massive decline in physical sales,is a critical warning.People can shop more efficiently online and therefore don’t need to go to as many stores to find what they want.There’s a surplus of physical shopping space for the crowds,which is one reason why stores are downsizing and closing.Even five years ago most people faced a choice.Sit at your computer,probably at home or at the office,search and browse,and buy.Or head out to the mall,or Main Street,look and shop,and buy.Now,just about everyone has a smartphone,connected to the internet almost everywhere almost all the time.Even when a retailer gets a customer to walk in the store,she can easily see if there’s a better deal online or at another store nearby.L)So far,the main thing many large retailers have done in response to all this is to open online stores,so people will come to them directly rather than to Amazon and its smaller online rivals.Many are having the same problem that newspapers have.Even if they get online traffic,they struggle to make enough money online to compensate for what they are losing offline.M)A few seem to be making this work.Among large traditional retailers,Walmart recently reported the best results,leading its stock price to surge,while Macy’s,Target,and Nordstrom’s dropped.Yet Walmart’s year-over-year online sales only grew7percent,leading its CEO to lament(哀叹),“Growth here is too slow.”Part of the problem is that almost two decades after Amazon filed the one.click patent,the online retail shopping and buying experience is filled with frictions.A recent study graded more than600internet retailers on how easy it was for consumers to shop,buy,and pay.Almost half of the sites didn’t get a passing grade and only18percent got an A or B.N)The turmoil on the ground in physical retail is hard to square with the Census data.Unfortunately,part of the explanation is that the Census retail data are unreliable.Our deep100k into those data and their preparation revealed serious problems.It seems likely that Census simply misclassifies a large chunk of online sales.It is certain that the Census procedures,which lump the online sales of major traditional retailers like Walmart with“non-store retailers"1ike food trucks.can mask major changes in individual retail categories.The bureau could easily present their data in more useful ways.but they have chosen not to.O)Despite the turmoil,brick and mortar won’t disappear any time soon.The big questions are which,if any,of the large traditional retailers will still be on the scene in a decade or two because they have successfully reinvented themselves,which new players will operate busy stores on Main Streets and maybe even in shopping malls,and how the shopping and buying experience will have changed in each retail category.Investors shouldn’t write off brick and mortar.Whether they should bet on the traditional players who run those stores now is another matter36.Although online retailing has existed for some twenty years,nearly half of the internet retailers still fail to receive satisfactory feedback from consumers,according to a recent survey.37.Innovative retailers integrate internet technologies with conventional retailing to create new retail models.38.Despite what the Census data suggest,the value of physical retail’s stocks has been dropping.39.Innovative-driven changes in the retail industry didn’t take place as quickly as widely anticipated.40.Statistics indicate that brick and mortar sales still made up the lion’s share of the retail business.panies that successfully combine online and offline business models may prove to be a big concern for traditional retailers.42.Brick and mortar retailers’faith in their business was strengthened when the dot com bubble burst.43.Despite the tremendous challenges from online retailing,traditional retailing will be here to stay for quite some time.44.With the rise of online commerce,physical retail stores are likely to suffer the same fate as i the yellow pages.45.The wide use of smartphones has made it more complex for traditional retailers to reinvent their business. Section CDirections:There are2passages in this section.Each passage is followed by some questions or unfinished statements.For each of them there are four choices marked A),B),C)and D).You should decide on the best choice and mark the corresponding letter on Answer Sheet2with a single line through the centre.Passage OneProfessor Stephen Hawking has warned that the creation of powerful artifcial intelligence(AI)will be“either the best,or the worst thing,ever to happen to humanity”,and praised the creation of an academic institute dedicated to researching the future of intelligence as“crucial to the future of our civilisation and our species”.Hawking was speaking at the opening of the Leverhulme Centre for the Future of Intelligence(LCFI)at Cambridge University,a multi-disciplinary institute that will attempt to tackle some of the open-ended questions raised by the rapid pace of development in AI research.“We spend a great deal of time studying history,”Hawking said,“which,let’s face it,is mostly the history of stupidity.So it’s a welcome change that people are studying instead the future of intelligence.”While the world-renowned physicist has often been cautious about AI,raising concerns that humanity could be the architect of its own destruction if it creates a super-intelligence with a will of its own,he was also quick to highlight the positives that AI research can bring.“The potential benefits of creating intelligence are huge,”he said.“We cannot predict what we might achieve when our own minds are amplified by AI.Perhaps with the tools of this new technological revolution,we will be able to undo some of the damage done to the natural world by the last one—industrialisation.And surely we will aim to finally eradicate disease and poverty.And every aspect of our lives will be transformed.In short,success in creating AI could be the biggest event in the history of our civilisation.”Huw Price,the centre’s academic director and the Bertrand Russell professor of philosophy at Cambridge University,where Hawking is also an academic,said that the centre came about partially as a result of the university’s Centre for Existential Risk.That institute examined a wider range of potential problems for humanity, while the LCFI has a narrow focus.AI pioneer Margaret Boden,professor of cognitive science at the University of Sussex,praised the progress of such discussions.As recently as2009,she said,the topic wasn’t taken seriously,even among AI researchers.“AI is hugely exciting,”she said,“but it has limitations,which present grave dangers given uncritical use.”The academic community is not alone in warning about the potential dangers of AI as well as the potential benefits.A number of pioneers from the technology industry,most famously the entrepreneur Elon Musk,have also expressed their concerns about the damage that a super-intelligent AI could do to humanity.46.What did Stephen Hawking think of artificial intelligence?A)It would be vital to the progress of human civilisation.B)It might be a blessing or a disaster in the making.C)It might present challenges as well as opportunities.D)It would be a significant expansion of human intelligence.47.What did Hawking say about the creation of the LCFI?A)It would accelerate the progress of AI research.B)It would mark a step forward in the AI industry.C)It was extremely important to the destiny of humankind.D)It was an achievement of multi-disciplinary collaboration.48.What did Hawking say was a welcome change in AI research?A)The shift of research focus from the past to the future.B)The shift of research from theory to implementation.C)The greater emphasis on the negative impact of AI.D)The increasing awareness of mankind’s past stupidity.49.What concerns did Hawking raise about AI?A)It may exceed human intelligence sooner or later.B)It may ultimately over-amplify the human mind.C)Super-intelligence may cause its own destruction.50.What do we learn about some entrepreneurs from the technology industry?A)They are much influenced by the academic community.B)They are most likely to benefit from AI development.C)They share the same concerns about AI as academics.D)They believe they can keep AI under human control.Passage TwoQuestions51to55are based on the following passage.The market for products designed specifically for older adults could reach$30billion by next year,and startups(初创公司)want in on the action.What they sometimes lack is feedback from the people who they hope will use their products.So Brookdale,the country’s largest owner of retirement communities,has been inviting a few select entrepreneurs just to move in for a few days,show off their products and hear what the residents have to say.That’s what brought Dayle Rodriguez,28,all the way from England to the dining room of Brookdale South Bay in Torrance,California.Rodriguez is the community and marketing manager for a company called Sentab. The startup’s product,SentabTV,enables older adults who may not be comfortable with computers to access email, video chat and social media using just their televisions and a remote control.“It’s nothing new,it’s nothing too complicated and it’s natural because lots of people have TV remotes,”says Rodriguez.But none of that is the topic of conversation in the Brookdale dining room.Instead,Rodriguez solicits residents’advice on what he should get on his cheeseburger and how he should spend the afternoon.Playing cards was on the agenda,as well as learning to play mahjong(麻将).Rodriguez says it’s important that residents here don’t feel like he’s selling them something.“I’ve had more feedback in a passive approach,”he says.“Playing pool,playing cards,having dinner,having lunch,”all work better“than going through a survey of questions.When they get to know me and to trust me,knowing for sure I’m not selling them something—there’ll be more honest feedback from them.”Rodriguez is just the seventh entrepreneur to move into one of Brookdale’s1,100senior living communities. Other new products in the program have included a kind of full-body blow dryer and specially designed clothing that allows people with disabilities to dress and undress themselves.Mary Lou Busch,93,agreed to try the Sentab system.She tells Rodriguez that it might be good for someone, but not for her.“I have the computer and FaceTime,which I talk with my family on,”she explains.She also has an iPad and a smartphone.“So I do pretty much everything I need to do.”To be fair,if Rodriguez had wanted feedback from some more technophobic(害怕技术的)seniors,he might have ended up in the wrong Brookdale community.This one is located in the heart of Southern California’s aerospace corridor.Many residents have backgrounds in engineering,business and academic circles.But Rodriguez says he's still learning something important by moving into this Brookdale community:“People are more tech-proficient than we thought.”And besides,where else would he learn to play mahjong?51.What does the passage say about the startups?A)They never lose time in upgrading products for seniors.B)They want to have a share of the seniors’goods market.C)They invite seniors to their companies to try their products.D)They try to profit from promoting digital products to seniors.52.Some entrepreneurs have been invited to Brookdale to______.A)have an interview with potential customersC)collect residents’feedback on their productsD)show senior residents how to use IT products53.What do we know about SentabTV?A)It is a TV program catering to the interest of the elderly.B)It is a digital TV which enjoys popularity among seniors.C)It is a TV specially designed for seniors to view programs.D)It is a communication system via TV instead of a computer.54.What does Rodriguez say is important in promoting products?A)Winning trust from prospective customers.B)Knowing the likes and dislikes of customers.C)Demonstrating their superiority on the spot.D)Responding promptly to customer feedback.55.What do we learn about the seniors in the Brookdale community?A)Most of them are interested in using the Sentab.B)They are quite at ease with high-tech products.C)They have much in common with seniors elsewhere.D)Most of them enjoy a longer life than average people.PartⅣTranslation(30minutes) Directions:For this part,you are allowed30minutes to translate a passage from Chinese into English.You should write your answer on Answer Sheet2.中国幅员辽阔,人口众多,很多地方人们都说自己的方言。

During the pause, you must read the four choices marked A), B), C) and D), and decide which is the best answer. Then mark the corresponding letter on Answer Sheet 2 with a single line through the centre.11.W: What's wrong with your phone, Gary? I tried to call you all night yesterday.M: I'm sorry. No one's able to get through yesterday. My telephone was disconnected by the phone company.Q: What does the woman ask the man about?12.W: I finally found a really nice apartment that's within my price range.M: Congratulations! Affordable housing is rare in this city. I've been looking for a suitable place since I got here six months ago.Q: What does the man mean?13.M: I got this in my mailbox today, but I don't know what it is. Do you have any idea?W: Oh, that's your number for the new photocopier. It acquires an access code. Everyone got one.Q: What do we learn from the conversation?14.W: Jane told me that you'll be leaving at soon. Is it true?M: Yeah, my wife's maternity leave is close to an end. And since she wants to go back to work, I've decided to take a year off to raise the baby.Q: What does the man mean?15M: We'll never find a parking space here. What about dropping you at thesouth gate and I'll find parking somewhere else. W: Well, OK. It looks like everyone in town came to the mall today.Q: What does the woman mean?16W: When will the computers be back online?M: Probably not until tomorrow. The problem is more complicated than I thought.Q: What does the man mean?17M: Did you catch Professor Smith on TV last night?W: I almost missed it, but my mother just happened to be watching at home and gave me a call.Q: What does the woman imply?18M: May I get this prescription refilled?W: I'm sorry, sir, but we can't give you a refill on that. You'll have to get a new prescription.Q: What can we infer from the conversation?W: Well, it’s the South Theater Company. They want to know if we’d be interested in sponsoring a tour they want to make to East Asia.M: East Asia? uhh… and how much are they hoping to get from us?W: Well, the letter mentions 20,000 pounds, but I don’t know if they might settle for us.M: Do they say what they would cover? Have they anything specific in mind?W: No, I think they are just asking all the firms in tongue for as much money as they think they’ll give.M: And we are worth 20, 000 pounds, right?W: It seems so.M: Very flattering. But I am not awfully happy with the idea. What we get out of it?W: Oh, good publicity I suppose. So what I suggest is not that we just give them a sum of money, but that we offer to pay for something specific like travel or something, and that in return, we ask for our name to be printed prominently in the program, and that they give us free advertising space in it.M: But the travel bill would be enormous, and we could never manage that.W: I know. But why don’t we offer to pay for the printing of the programs ourselves on condition t hat on the front cover there's something like This program is presented with the compliments of Norland Electronics, and free advertising of course.M: Good idea. Well, let’s get back to them and ask what the program they want will cost. Then we can see if we are interested or not.Questions 19-21 are based on the conversation you have just heard.19. What do we learn about the South Theater Company?20. What benefit does the woman say their firm can get by sponsoring the Theater Company?21. What does the woman suggest they do instead of paying the South Theater Company’s travel expenses?Conversation TwoW: Rock stars now face a new hazard --- voice abuse. After last week's announcement that Phil Collins might give up touring because live concerts are ruining his voice, doctors are counseling stars about the dos and don'ts of voice care. Here in the studio today, we have Mr. Paul Phillips, an expert from the High Field Hospital. Paul, what advice would you give to singers facing voice problems?M: If pop singers have got voice problems, they really need to be more selective about where they work. They shouldn't work in smoky atmospheres. They also need to think about resting their voices after a show. Something else they need to be careful about is medicines. Aspirin, for example, singers should avoid aspirin. It thins the blood. And if a singer coughs, this can result in the bruising of the vocal cords.W: And is it true that some singers use drugs before concerts to boost their voices when they have voice problems? M: Yes, this does happen on occasion. They are easily-available on the continent and they are useful if a singer has problems with his vocal cords and has to sing that night. But if they are taken regularly, they cause a thinning of the voice muscle. Most pop singers suffer from three things: lack of training, overuse and abuse of the voice, especially when they are young. They have difficult lives. When they go on tour, they do a vast number of concerts, singing in smoky places.W: So, what would you advise the singers to do?M: Warm you voice up before a show and warm it down after.Questions 22-25 are based on the conversation you have just heard.22. What does last week's announcement say about rock star, Phil Collins?23. What does Paul Philips say about aspirin?24. What does Paul Philips say about young pop singers?25. What are the speakers mainly talking about?Would you trust a robot to park your car? The question will confront New Yorkers in February as the city's first robotic parking opens in Chinatown.The technology has been successfully applied overseas, but the only other public robotic garage in the United States has been troublesome, dropping vehicles and trapping cars because of technical problems.Nonetheless, the developers of the Chinatown garage are confident with the technology and are counting on it to squeeze 67 cars in an apartment-building basement that would otherwise fit only 24, accomplished by removing a maneuver space normally required.A human-shaped robot won't be stepping into your car to drive it. Rather, the garage itself does the parking. The driver stops the car on a flat platform and gets out. The platform is lowered into the garage, and it is then transported to a vacant parking space by a computer-controlled device similar to an elevator that also runs sideways.There is no human supervision, but an attendant will be on hand to accept cash and explain the system to newly users. Parking rates will be attracted about $400 monthly or $25 per day, according to Ari Milstein, the director of planning for Automation Parking Systems, which is the U.S. subsidiary of a German company. This company has built automated garages in several countries overseas and in the United States for residents of a Washington, D.C. apartment building.Questions 26 to 29 are based on the passage you have just heard.26. What do we learn about the robot parking in the U.S. so far?27. What advantage does robotic parking have according to the developers?28. What does the attendant do in the automated garage?29. What does the company say about the parking rate?Passage 2A recent study shows that meat consumption is one of the main ways that human can damage the environment, second only to the use of motor vehicles. So how can eating meat have a negative effect on the environment? For a start, all animals, such as cows, pigs and sheep, always gas limed methane, which is the second most common green house gas after carbon dioxide. Many environmental experts now believe that methane is more responsible for global warming than carbon dioxide. It is estimated that 25% of all methane that released into the atmosphere coming from farm animals. Another way in which meat production affects the environment is through the use of water and land. 2,500 gallons of water are needed to produce one pound of beef. While 20 gallons of water are need to produce one pound of wheat. One acre of farmland use to for raising cows can produce 250 pounds of beef. One acre of farmland use to for crop production can produce 1,500 pounds of tomatoes. Many people now say the benefits of switching to vegetarian diet which excludes meat and fish. Not just for health reasons, but also because it plays a vital role in protecting theenvironment. However, some nutritionists advise against switching to a totally strict vegetarian diet. They believe such a diet which includes no products from animal sources can be deficient in many of the necessary vitamins and minerals our bodies need. Today many people have come to realize that help the environment and for the human race to survive, more of us will need to become vegetarian.Questions 30 to 32 are based on the passage you've just heard.30. What does the recent study show?31. What do some nutritionists say about the strict vegetarian diet?32. What does the speaker think more people need to do?Passage 3Alcoholism is a serious disease. Nearly nine million Americans alone suffer from the illness. Many scientists disagree about what the differences are between the alcohol addict and social drinker. The difference occurs when someone needs to drink. And this need gets in the way of his health or behavior. Alcohol causes a loss of judgment and alertness. After a long period, alcoholism can deteriorate the liver, the brain and other parts of the body. The illness is dangerous, because it is involved in half of all automobile accidents. Another problem is that the victim often denies being an alcohol addict and won’t get help. Solutions do exist. Many hospitals and centers help patients cop e. Without the assistance, the victim can destroy his life. He would detach himself from the routines of life. He may lose his employment, home or loved ones.All the causes of the sickness are not discovered yet. There is no standard for a person with alcoholism. Victims range in age, race, sex and background. Some groups of people are more vulnerable to the illness. People from broken homes and North American Indians are two examples. People from broken homes often lack stable lives. Indians likewise had the traditional life taken from them by white settlers who often encourage them to consume alcohol to prevent them from fighting back. The problem has now been passed on. Alcoholism is clearly present in society today. People have started to get help and information. With proper assistance, victims can put their lives together one day.Question 33 to 35 are based on the passage you have just heard.Q33. What is the problem of the victims about alcoholism according to the speaker?Q34. Why did white settlers introduce alcohol to Indians?Q35. What does the speaker seem to believe about those affected by alcoholism?Self-image is the picture you have of yourself, the sort of person you believe you are. Included in your self-image are the categories in which you place yourself, the roles you play and other similar descriptors you use to identify yourself. If you tell an acquaintance you are a grandfather who recently lost his wife and who does volunteer work on weekends, several elements of your self-image are bought to light — the roles of grandparent, widower and conscientious citizen.But self-image is more than how you picture yourself; it also involves how others see you. Three types of feedback from others are indicative of how they see us: conformation, rejection, and disconfirmation. Conformation occurs when others treat you in a manner consistent with who you believe you are.You believe you have leadership abilities and your boss put you in charge of a new work team. On the other hand, rejection occurs when others treat you in a manner that is inconsistent with yourself definition. Pierre Salinger was appointed senator from California but subsequently lost his first election. He thought he was a good public official, but the voters obviously thought otherwise— Their vote was inconsistent with his self-concept. The third type of feedback is disconfirmation, which occurs when others fail torespond to your notion of self by responding neutrally. A student writes what he thinks is an excellent composition, but the teacher writes no encouraging remarks. Rather than relying on how others classify you, consider how you identify yourself. The way in which you identify yourself is the best refection of yourself-image.附:参考答案11. Why she could not get through to him12. He has difficulty finding affordable housing13.

Moreover, mutual respect, support and encouragement in a team helps foster a sense of belonging, maintain harmony in the workplace and thus improve job satisfaction. Consider the tech giant Alibaba, whose huge success, as its CEO Jack Ma acknowledges,benefits considerably from joint efforts and efficient coordination among both clerks and departments, driving the corporation to handle arduous tasks, confront tough challenges and even pull through severe crises.In short, team spirit and effective communication are conducive to employee and business performance alike.

Each statement contains information given in one of the paragraphs. Identify the paragraph from which the information is derived. You maychoose a paragraph more than once. Each paragraph is marked with a letter. Answer the questions by marking the corresponding letter on Answer Sheet 2.The Best Retailers Combine Bricks and Clicks[A] Retail profits are falling sharply. Stores are closing. Malls are emptying. The depressing stories just keep coming. Reading the earnings announcements of large retail stores like Macy's, Nordstrom, and Target is about as uplifting as a tourof an intensive care unit. The Internet is apparently taking down yet another industry. Brick and mortar stores (实体店)seem to be going the way of the yellow pages. Sure enough, the Census Bureau just released data showing that online retail sales surged 15.2 percent between the first quarter of 2015 and the first quarter of 2016.[B] But before you dump all of your retail stocks, there are more facts you should consider. Looking only at that 15.2 percent “surge” would be misleading. It was an increase that was on a small base of 6.9 percent. Even when a tiny number grows by a large percentage terms, it is often still tiny.[C] More than 20 years after the Internet was opened to commerce, the Census Bureau tells us that brick and mortar sales accounted for 92.3 percent of retail sales in the first quarter of 2016. Their data show that only 0.8 percent of retail sales shifted from offline to online between the beginning of 2015 and 2016.[D] So, despite all the talk about drone(无人机)deliveries to your doorstep, all the retail executives expressing anxiety over consumers going online, and even a Presidential candidate exclaiming that Amazon has a “huge antitrust problem,”the Census data suggest that physical retail is thriving. Of course, the closed stores, depressed executives, and sinking stocks suggest otherwise. What’s the real story?[E] Many firms operating brick and mortar stores are in trouble. The retail industry is getting reinvented, as we describe in our new book Matchmakers. It’s standing in the path of what Schumpeter called a gale(大风)of creative destruction. That storm has been brewing for some time, and as it has reached gale force, most large retailers are searchingfor a response. As the CFO of Macy’s put it recently, “We’re frankly scratching our heads.”[F] But it’s not happening as experts predicted. In the peak of the bubble, brick-and-mortar retail was one of those industries the Internet was going to kill-and quickly. The bust discredited most predictions of that sort. And in the years that followed, conventional retailers’ confidence in the future increased as Census continued to report weak online sales. And then the gale hit.[G] It is becoming increasingly clear that retail reinvention isn’t a simple battle to the death between bricks and clicks. It is about devising retail models that work for people who are making increasing use of a growing array ofInternet-connected tools to change how they search, shop, and buy. Creative retailers are using the new technologies to innovate just about everything stores do from managing inventory, to marketing, to getting paid.[H] More than drones dropping a new supply of underwear on your doorstep, Apple’s massively successfulbrick-and-mortar-and-glass retail stores and Amazon’s small steps in the same direction are what should keepold-fashioned retailers awake at night. Not to mention the large number of creative new retailers, like Bonobos, that are blending online and offline experiences in creative ways.[I] Retail reinvention is not a simple process, and it’s also not happening on what used to be called “Internet Time.” Some Internet-driven changes have happened quickly, of course. Craigslist quickly overtook newspaper classified ads and turned newspaper economics upside down. But many widely anticipated changes weren’t quick, and some haven’t really started. With the benefit of hindsight (后见之明),it looks like the Internet will transform the economy at something like the pace of other great inventions like electricity. B2B commerce, for example, didn’t move mainly online by 2005 as many had predicted in 2000, nor even by 2016, but that doesn't mean it won’t do so over the next few decades.[J] But the gale is still blowing. The sudden decline in foot traffic in recent years, even though it hasn’t been accompanied by a massive decline in physical sales, is a criticalwarning. People can shop more efficiently online and therefore don’t need to go to as many stores to find what they want. There’s a surplus of physical shopping space for the crowds, which is one reason why stores are downsizing and closing.[K] The rise of the mobile phone has recently added a new level of complexity to the process of retail reinvention. Even five years ago most people faced a choice. Sit at your computer, probably at home or at the office, search and browse, and buy. Or head out to the mall, or Main Street, look and shop, and buy. Now, just about everyone has a smartphone, connected to the Internet almost everywhere almost all the time. Even when a retailer gets a customer to walk in the store, she can easily see if there’s a better de al online or at another store nearby.[L] So far, the main thing many large retailers have done in response to all this is to open online stores, so people will come to them directly rather than to Amazon and its smaller online rivals. Many are having the same problem that newspapers have had. Even if they get online traffic, theystruggle to make enough money online to compensate for what they are losing offline.[M] A few seem to be making this work. Among large traditional retailers, Walmart recently reported the best results, leading its stock price to surge, while Macy’s, Target, and Nordstrom’s dropped. Yet Walmart’s year-over-year online sales only grew 7 percent, leading its CEO to lament (哀叹),“Growth here is too slow.”Part of the problem is that almost two decades after Amazon filed the one-click patent, the online retail shopping and buying experience is filled with frictions. A recent study graded more than 600 Internet retailers on how easy it was for consumers to shop, buy, and pay. Almost ha lf of the sites didn’t get a passing grade and only 18 percent got an A or B.[N] The turmoil on the ground in physical retail is hard to square with the Census data. Unfortunately, part of the explanation is that the Census retail data are unreliable. Our deep look into those data and their preparation revealed serious problems. It seems likely that Census simply misclassifies a large chunk of online sales. It is certain that theCensus procedures, which lump the online sales of major traditional retailer s like Walmart in with “non-store retailers” like food trucks, can mask major changes in individual retail categories. The bureau could easily present their data in more useful ways, but they have chosen not to.[O] Despite the turmoil, brick and mortar w on’t disappear any time soon. The big questions are which, if any, of the large traditional retailers will still be on the scene in a decade or two because they have successfully reinvented themselves, which new players will operate busy stores on Main Streets and maybe even in shopping malls, and how the shopping and buying experience will have changed in each retail category. Investors shouldn't write off brick and mortar. Whether they should bet on the traditional players who run those stores now is another matter.36. Although online retailing has existed for some twenty years, nearly half of the Internet retailers still fail to receive satisfactory feedback from consumers, according to a recent survey.【答案】M37. Innovative retailers integrate Internet technologies with conventional retailing to create new retail models.【答案】G38. Despite what the Census data suggest, the value of physical retail’s stocks has been dropping.【答案】D39. Internet-driven changes in the retail industry didn't take place as quickly as widely anticipated.【答案】I40.

Each passage is followed by some questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A) , B) , C) and D). You should decide on the best choice and mark the corresponding letter on Answer Sheet 2 with a single line through the centre.Passage OneQuestions 46 to 50 are based on the following passage.Professor Stephen Hawking has warned that the creation of powerful artificial intelligence (AI) wi ll be “either the best, or the worst thing, ever to happen to humanity”, and praised the creation of an academic institute dedicated to researching the future of intelligence as “crucial to the future of ourcivilization and our species".Hawking was speaking at the opening of the Leverhulme Centre for the Future of Intelligence (LCFI) at Cambridge University, a multi-disciplinary institute that will attempt to tackle some of the open-ended questions raised by the rapid pace of development in AI research. “We spend a great deal of time studying history," Hawking said, ''which, let’s face it, is mostly the history of stupidity. So it’s a welcome change that people are studying instead the future of intelligence."While the world-renowned physicist has often been cautious about AI, raising concerns that humanity could be the architect of its own destruction if it creates asuper-intelligence with a will of its own, he was also quick to highlight the positives that AI research can bring. “ The potential benefi ts of creating intelligence are huge,” he said. “We cannot predict what we might achieve when our own minds are amplified by AI. Perhaps with the tools of this new technological revolution, we will be able to undo some of the damage done to the natural world by the last one—industrialisation. And surely we will aim to finallyeradicate disease and poverty. And every aspect of our lives will be transformed. In short, success in creating AI could be the biggest event in the history of our civilisation."Huw Price, the centre’s academic director and the Bertrand Russell professor of philosophy at Cambridge University, where Hawking is also an academic, said that the centre came about partially as a result of the university’s Centre for Existential Risk. That institute examined a wider range of potential problems for humanity, while the LCFI has a narrow focus.AI pioneer Margaret Boden, professor of cognitive science at the University of Sussex, praised the progress of such discussions. As recently as 2009, sh e said, the topic wasn’t taken seriously, even among AI researchers. “AI is hugely exciting," she said, ''but it has limitations, which present grave dangers given uncritical use.”The academic community is not alone in warning about the potential dangers of AI as well as the potential benefits. A number of pioneers from the technology industry, mostfamously the entrepreneur Elon Musk, have also expressed their concerns about the damage that a super-intelligent AI could do to humanity.46. What did Stephen Hawking think of artificial intelligence?A) It would be vital to the progress of human civilisation.B) It might be a blessing or a disaster in the making.C) It might present challenges as well as opportunities.D) It would be a significant expansion of human intelligence.【答案】B47. What did Hawking say about the creation of the LCFI?A) It would accelerate the progress of AI research.B) It would mark a step forward in the AI industry.C) It was extremely important to the destiny of humankind.D) It was an achievement of multi-disciplinary collaboration.【答案】C48. What did Hawking say was a welcome change in AI research?A) The shift of research focus from the past to the future.B) The shift of research from theory to implementation.C) The greater emphasis on the negative impact of AI.D) The increasing awareness of mankind’s past stupidity.【答案】A49. What concerns did Hawking raise about AI?A) It may exceed human intelligence sooner or later.B) It may ultimately over-amplify the human mind.C) Super-intelligence may cause its own destruction.D) Super-intelligence may eventually ruin mankind.【答案】D50. What do we learn about some entrepreneurs from the technology industry?A) They are much influenced by the academic community.B) They are most likely to benefit from AI development.C) They share the same concerns about AI as academics.D) They believe they can keep AI under human control.【答案】CPassage TwoQuestions 51 to 55 are based on the following passage.The market for products designed specifically for older adults could reach $ 30 billion by next year, and startups (初创公司)want in on the action. What they sometimes lack is feedback from the people who they hope will use their products. So Brookdale, the co untry’s largest owner of retirement communities, has been inviting a few select entrepreneursjust to move in for a few days, show off their products andhear what the residents have to say.That’s what brought Dayle Rodriguez, 28, all the way f rom England to the dining room of Brookdale South Bay in Torrance, California. Rodriguez is the community and marketing manager for a company called Sentab. The startup’s product, SentabTV, enables older adults who may not be comfortable with computers to access email, video chat and social media using just their televisions and a remote control.“It’s nothing new, it’s nothing too complicated and it’snatural because lots of people have TV remotes,” says Rodriguez.But none of that is the topic of conversation in the Brookdale dining room. Instead, Rodriguez solicits residents’ advice on what he should get on his cheeseburger and how he should spend the afternoon. Playing cards was on the agenda, as well as learning to play mahjong (麻将).Rodriguez says i t’s important that residents here don’t feel like he’s selling them something. “I’ve had more feedback in a passive approach,” he says. “Playing pool, playing cards, having dinner, having lunch,” all work better “than going through a survey of questions. When they get to know me and to trust me, knowing for sure I’m not selling them something—there’ll be more honest feedback from them.”Rodriguez is just the seventh entrepreneur to move into one of Brookdale’s 1,100 senior living communities. Other new products in the program have included a kind of full-body blow dryer and specially designed clothing that allows people with disabilities to dress and undress themselves.。
