In fact, they have been in use for centuries. 25 centuries ago, kites were well-known in China. These first kites were probably made of wood. They may even have been covered with silk, because silk were used a lot at that time. Early kites were built for certain uses. In ancient China, they will use tocarry ropes to cross rivers. Once across, the ropes were tear down and wooden bridges would hang for them. Legend tells of one General who flew musical kites ov er the enemies’ camp. The enemy fled, believing the sounds to be the warming voices of angels. By the 15th century, many people flew kites in Europe. Marco Polo may have brought the kite back from hisvisit to China. The kite has been linked to great names and events. For instance, Benjamin Franklin used kite to provethe lightening electricity. He flew the kite in the storm. He did this in order to draw lightening from the clouds. He tied a metal key and a strip of silk to the kite line. The silk ribbon would stop the lightening from passing through his body. Benjamin’s idea was first laughed at. But later on, it enlightened the invention of the lightening rod. With such grand history, kite flying is short remain an entertainingand popular sport.Question 16 to 18 are based on the passage you have just heard.Question 16: What does the speaker say about kite?Question 17: What did ancient Chinese use cats to do?Question 18: Why did BF flied a kite in the storm?短文2I have learnt many languages, but I’m not mastered them the way the professional interpreter or translator has. Still, they have open doors for me. They have allowed me the opportunity to seek jobs in international contexts and helpme get those jobs. Like many people who have lived overseasfor a while, I simply got crazy about it. I can’t imageliving my professional or social life without international interactions. Since 1977, I have spent much more time abroad than in the United States. I like going to new places, eating new foods and experiencing new cultures. If you can speak the language, it’s easier to get to know the country and its people. If I had the time and money. I would live for a yearin as many countries as possible. Beyond my career, myfacility with languages has given me a few rare opportunities. Once, just after I returned my year in Vienna. I was asked to translate for a German judge at Olympic level horse event and learned a lot about the sport.In Japan, once when I was in the studio audience of a TV cooking show, I was asked to go up on the stage and taste the beef dish that was being prepared and tell what I thought. They asked” Was it as good as American beef?” It was very exciting for me to be on Japanese TV, speaking in Japanese about how delicious the beef was.Questions 19 to 22 are based on the passage you’ve just heard.Question 19 What does the speaker say about herself?Question 20 What does the speaker say about many people who have lived overseas for a while?Question 21 How did the speaker experience of living in Vienna benefit her?Question 22 What was the speaker asked to do in the Japanese studio?短文3Dr. Ben Carsen grew up in a poor single parent house-hold in Detroit.

His mother convinced that he had to do something dramatic preventing leading a life of failure laid down some rules. He could notwatch television except for two programs a week, could not play with his friends after schooluntil he finished his homework. And had to read two books a week, and write book reports about them. His mother’s strategy worked. “Of course, I didn’t know she couldn’t read. So there I wassubmitting these reports.” he said. She would put check marks on them like she had been reading them. As I began to read about scientists,economists and philosophers. I started imaging myself in their shoes. As he got into the hobbit of hard work, his grade began to soar. Ultimately he received a scholarship to attending YaleUniversity, and later he was admitted to the University of Michigan Medical School.He is now a leading surgeon at Johns Hopkins Medical School and he is also the author of the three books.Questions 23 to 25 are based on the conversation you’ve just heard.Q23 What do we learn about Ben Carsen ?Q24 What did Ben Caren’s classmates and teachers think of him whenhe was first at school?Q25 What did Ben Carsen’s mother tell him to do when he was a school boy?Part 4 听写题When you look up at the night sky, what do you see? There are other heavenly bodies out there besides the moon and stars. One of the most fascinating of this is a comet. Comets were formed around the same the earth was formed. They are made up of ice and other frozen liquids and gasses. Now and then these dirty snow balls begin to orbit the sun just as the planets do. As a comet gets closer to the sun. Some gasses in it begin to unfreeze. They combine with dust particles from the comet to form a huge cloud. As the comet gets even nearer to the sun and solar wind blows the cloud behind the comet thus forming its tail. The tail and generally fuzzy atmosphere around the comet are characteristics that can help identify this phenomenon in the night sky. In any given year, about dozen known comets come close to the sun in their orbits. The average person can’t see them all of course. Usually there is only one or two a year bright enough to be seen with the naked eye. Comet Hale-Bopp discovered in 1995 was an unusually bright comet. Its orbit bought relatively to the earth within 122 million milesof it. But Hale-Bopp came a long way on its earthly visit. It won’t be back for another 4 thousand years or so.Part 2 长对话Conversion 1W: Hi Leo, why do you say English would become the world language?M:Well.

听力原文Section A短对话(11~18)11W: This is one of our best and least expensive two-bedroom listings. It’s located in a quiet building and it’s close to bus lines.M: That maybe true. But look at it,it’s awful, the paint has peeled off and carpet is worn and the stove is ancient.Q: What can we infer from the conversation?12M: The pictures we took at the botanical garden should be ready tomorrow.W:I can’t wait to see them,I’m wondering if the shots I took are as good as I thought.Q: What is the woman eager to know?13W: The handle of the suitcase is broken. Can you have it fixed by next Tuesday?M: Let me see,I need to find a handle that matches but that shouldn’t take too long.Q: What does the man mean?14M:This truck looks like what I need but I’m worried about maintenance. For us it’ll have to operate for long periods of time in very cold temperatures.W: We have several models that are especially adaptive for extreme conditions. Would you like to see them?Q: What do we learn about the man from the conversation?15M: I think your boss would be very upset when he gets your letter of resignation.W: That may be so. But in the letter, I just told him frankly I could no longer live with his poor management and stupid decisions.Q: What do we learn about the woman?16W I’d like to exchange the shirt. I’ve learned that the person bought it for allergic to wool.M Maybe we can find something in cotton or silk. Please come this way.Q;What does the women want to do?17M: Excuse me, Miss?Did anyone happen to turn in a new handbag? You know,it’s a birthday gift for my wife.W: Let me see. Oh,we’ve got quite a lot of women’s bags here. Can you give me more detailed information, such as the color, the size and the trademark?Q: Where does this conversation most probably take place?18M What are you going to do with the old house you are in heritage from your grandfather?W I once intended to sell it, but now,I’m thinking of turning it into a guest house,because it‘s still a solid structure.Q: What does the man plan to do with his old house?长对话(19~25)W: When you write a novel,do you know where you’re going, Dr. James?M: Yes, you must, really,if you’re writing the classical detective story, because it must be so carefully plotted and so carefully clued. I have schemes. I have charts. I have diagrams. It doesn’t mean to say that I always get it right, but I do plan before I begin writing. But what is so fascinating is how a book changes during the process of writing. It seems to me that creative writing is a process of revelation, really, rather than of creativity in the ordinary sense.W:When you’re planning the basic structure, do you like to go away to be sure that you’re by yourself?M: I need to be by myself certainly,absolutely. I can’t even bar e anybody else in the house. I don’t mind much where I am as long as I’ve got enough space to write, but I need to be completely alone.W: Is that very important to you?M: Oh,yes. I’ve never been lonely in all my life.W: How extraordinary! Never?M: No, never.W:You’re very lucky. Someone once said that there’s a bit of ice at the heart of every writer.M: Yes. I think this is true. The writer can stand aside from experience and look at it,watch it happening. There is this ‘detachment’ and I realize th at there are obviously experiences which would overwhelm everyone. But very often, a writer can appear to stand aside, and this detachment makes people feel there’s a bit of ice in the heart.Questions 19 to 21 are based on the conversation you have just heard.19. What is the key to write a good classical detective story according to the man?20. What does the man mainly need when working on a book?21. What does the man say about writers?W: There is an element there about competition then,isn’t there? Because British railways are a nationalized industry. There’s only one railway system in the country. If you don’t like a particular kind of big beans,you can go and buy another. But if you don’t like a particular railway,you can’t go and use another.M:Some people who write to me say this. They say that if you didn’t have monopoly,you wouldn’t be able to do the things you do. Well,I don’t think we do anything deliberately to upset our customers. We have particular problems. Since 1946, when the Transport Act came in, we were nationalized.W:Do you think that’s a good thing? Has it been a good thing for the railways, do you think, to be nationalized?M: Oh I think so, yes. Because in general,modes of transport are all around. Let’s face the fact. The car arrived. The car is here to stay. There is no question about that.W: So what are you saying then? Is it if the railways happen being nationalized, they would simply have disappeared?M: Oh,I think they would have. They’re disappearing fast in America. Er, the French railways lose 1 billion ponds a year. The German railways, 2 billion ponds a year. But you see,those governments are preparing to pour money into the transport system to keep it going.W: So in a sense, you cope between two extremes. On the one hand,you’re trying not to lose too much money. And on the other hand,you’ve got to provide the best service.M: Yes, you are right.Questions 22 to 25 are based on the conversation you have just heard.22. What does the woman say about British railways?23. What do some people who write to the man complain about?24. What does the man say threatens the existence of railways?25. What does the man say about railways in other countries?Section BPassage OneAmong global warming’s most frightening thr eats is the prediction is that the polar ice-caps will melt, raising sea level so much that coastal cities from New York to Los Angles to Shanghai will be flooded. Scientists agree that key player in this scenario is the West Antarctic ice sheet,a Brazil-size mass of frozen water that is much as 7000 feet thick. Unlike floating ice shelves which have little impact on sea level when they break up, the ice sheet is anchored to bedrock will blow the sea surface. Surrounded by open ocean, it is also vulnerable, but Antarctic experts disagree strongly on just how unstable it is. Now, new evidence reveals that all or most of the Antarctic ice sheet collapsed at least once during the past 1.3 million years, a period when global temperatures probably were not significantly higher than they are today. And the ice sheet was assumed to have been stable. In geological time, a million years is recent history. The proof, which was published last week in Science, comes from a team of scientists from Uppsala University in Sweden and California Institute of Technology who drew deep holes near the edge of ice sheet. Within samples collected from the solid substances lying beneath the ice. They found fossils of microscopic marine plants which suggest that the region was once open ocean not solid ice. As Herman Engleheart, a co-author from the California Institute of Technology says,‘the West Antarctic ice sheet disappear once and can disappear again.’26. What is one of the most frightening threats of global warming according to the passage?27. What did scientists disagree on?28. What is the latest information revealed about the West Antarctic ice sheet?29. What the scientists’ latest findings suggest?Passage TwoIt‘s always fun to write about research that you can actually try out for yourself.Try this: Take a photo and upload it to Facebook, then after a day or so, note what the URL link to the picture is and then delete it. Come back a month later and see if the link works. Chances are: It will.Facebook isn’t alone here. Researchers at Cambridge University have found that nearly half of the social networking sites don‘t immediately delete pictures when a user requests they be removed. In general, photo-centric websites like Flickr were found to be better at quickly removing deleted photos upon request.Why do “deleted” photos stick around so long? The problem relates to the way data is stored on large websites: While your personal computer only keeps one copy of a file, large-scale services like Facebook rely on what are called content delivery networks to manage data and distribution. It’s a complex system wherein data is copied to multiple intermediate devices,usually to speed up access to files when millions of people are trying to access the service at the same time. B ut because changes aren‘t reflected across the content delivery networks immediately, ghost copies of files tend to linger for days or weeks.In the case of Facebook, the company says data may hang around until the URL in question is reused, which is usual ly “after a short period of time”, though obviously that time can vary considerably.30. What does the speaker ask us to try out?31. What accounts for the failure of some websites to remove photos immediately?32. When will the unwanted data eventually disappear from Facebook according to the company?Passage ThreeEnjoying an iced coffee? Better skip dinner or hit the gym afterwards, with a cancer charity warning that some iced coffees contain as many calories as a hot dinner.The World Cancer Research Fund (WCRF) conducted a survey of iced coffees sold by some popular chains in Britain including Starbucks, Caffe Nero and Costa Coffee to gauge the calories as studies increasingly link obesity with cancer.The worst offender - a coffee from Starbucks -- had 561 calories. Other iced coffees contained more than 450 calories and the majority had an excess of 200.Health experts advise that the average woman should consume about 2,000 calories a day and a man about 2,500 calories to maintain a healthy weight. Dieters aim for 1,000 to 1,500 calories a day.“The fact that there is an iced coffee on the market with over a quarter of a woman’s daily calories allowance is alarming,” Dr Rachel Thompson, science programme manager at London-based WCRF, said in a widely-reported statement.“This is the amount of calories you might expect to have in an evening meal, not in a drink.”The WCRF has estimated that 19,000 cancers a year in Britain could be prevented if people lost their excess weight with growing evidence that excess body fat increases the risk of various cancers.“If you are having these types of coffee regularly then they will increase the chances of you becoming overweight, which in turn increases your risk of developing cancer, as well as other diseases such as heart disease.” she added.33. What warning did some health experts give?34. What does the author suggest people do after they have an iced coffee?35. What could British people expect if they maintain a normal body weight according to the WCRF?Section CPsychologists are finding that hope plays a surprisingly vital role in giving people a measurable advantage in rounds as diverse as academic achievement, bearing up in tough jobs, and coping with tragic illness. And, by contrast, the loss of hope, is turning out to be a stronger sign that a person may commit suicide than other factors long thought to be more likely risks. ‘Hope has proven a powerful predictor of outcome in every study we‘ve done so far,’ said Doctor Charles R. Snyder, a psychologist, who has devised a scale to assess how much hope a person has. For example, in research with 3920 college students, Doctor Snyder and his colleagues found that the level of hope among freshmen at the beginning of their first semester was a more accurate predictor of their college grades, than were their SAT scores or their grade point averages in high school, the two measures most commonly used to predict college performance. ‘Students with high hope set themselves higher goals and know how to work to attain them,’ Doctor Snyder said. ‘When you compare students of equivalent intelligence and past academic achievements,what sets them apart is hope.’ In devising a way to assess hope scientifically, Doctor Snyder went beyond the simple notion that hope is merely the sense that everything will turn out all right. ‘That notion is not concrete enough and it blurs two key components of hope,’ Doctor Snyder said,‘Having hope means believing you have both the will and the way to accomplish your goals, whatever they may be.’。

I will try it.Q: What does the man say about the dish?长对话:Conversation 1W:Good evening, and welcome to this week’s Business World, the program for and about business people. Tonight, we have Mr. Steven Kayne, who has just taken over and established bicycle shop. Tell us, Mr. Kayne, what made you want to run your own store?M: Well, I always loved racing bikes and fixing them. When I was working full-time as a salesman fora big company, I seldom had time to enjoy my hobby. I knew then that as soon as I had enough money to get my own business going, I’ll do it. I had my heart set on it and I didn’t let anything stand in my way. When I went down to the bank and got a business loan, I knew I’d love being my own boss. Now my time is my own. I open the store when I want and leave when I want.W: You mean you don’t keep regular hours?M: Well, the sign on my store says the hours are ten to six, but if business is slower than usual, I can just lock up and take off early.W: Have you hired any employees to work with you yet?M: Yeah, a couple of friends of mine who love biking as much as I do. They help me out a few days a week. It’s great because we play cards or just sit around and talk when there are no customers.W: Thank you, Mr. Kayne. We wish you success in your new business.Question 19-22 are based on the conversation you have just heard.19.What is the woman doing?20.What did Mr. Kayne do before he took over the bicycle shop?21.Why did the man take over a bicycle shop?22.What do we learn about the people working in the shop?Conversation 2W: Well, the main activities in the region were historically steel and paper processing, I think.M: Yes, but I’m not quite sure about the status of those industries now. Could you tell us something about that?W: Yes, of course. In fact, they are less significant, but steel-related manufacturing still accounts for 44% of industrial activity. So it’s still very important. In fact, 80% of Spain’s machine tools are from the Basque Country. As for paper processing, there’s still a little. But it’s no longer what it once was in the region. So, is that clear?M: Yes, thanks.W: Now, to get back to what I was saying, there’s a lot of unemployment as well as geographical problems in the region.M: Sorry, Victoria. What do you mean by geographical problems?W: Well, what I mean is the area is very hilly, mountainous in parts. So there used to be transport problems, now though there are new train links and better roads, but it may be that some smaller towns inland remain not very well connected, is that OK? Does that make sense? When we talk about specific location suggestions for the factory, we’ll see this in more detail, so we’ll come back to this question, OK?M: OK, right.W: So I was about to say something about the work force in the region and the level of training and education. In general, it’s very good and improving.Question 23-25 are based on the conversation you have just heard.23. What does the woman say about thesteel-related manufacturing in the region?24. What problem hinders the region’s development?25. What will the speakers discuss later?分页标题#e#短文:Passage 1I first met Joe Ganz when we were both nine years old, which is probably the only reason he’s one of my best friends. If I had first met Joe as a freshman in high school we wouldn’t even have had the chance to get to know each other. Joe is a day student, but I am a boarding student. We haven’t been in same classes, sports or extra-curricular activities. Nonetheless, I spend nearly every weekend at his house and we talk on the phone every night. This is not to say that we would not have been compatible if we had first met in our freshman year. Rather, we would not have been likely to spend enough time getting to know each other due to the lack of immediately visible mutual interests. In fact, to be honest, I struggle even now to think of things we have in common. But maybe that’s what makes us enjoy each other’s company so much. When I look at my friendship with Joe, I wonder how many people I’ve known whom I never disliked, but simply didn’t take the time to get to know. Thanks to Joe, I have realized how little basis there is for the social divisions thatexist in every community. Since this realization, I have begun to make an even more determined effort to find friends in unexpected people and places.Q:26: Why does the speaker say Joe Ganz became one of his best friends?27: Where does the speaker spend most of his weekends?28: What has the speaker learned from his friendship with Joe?Passage 2It was a bad night for Lewis. His research in the neighboring town has taken longer than he expected. It was late and he was very tired when he drove home. He turned into his building’s parking lot, but all the spaces were full. He drove back out onto the street, looking for a parking space. The first block was full. The next block was almost empty. Lewis didn’t see a “no parking” sign, but he has expected that his parking were allowed there. Most the spaces would be filled. Then he saw a small parking lot with two free spaces. He was so glad to see them that he didn’t eventhink to read the sign by the entrance. He drove in, parked and hurried home to go to bed. The next morning he went back to the lot to get his car. It was gone. He ran home and telephoned the city police to say that his car had been stolen. It took the police only a minute to tell him what had happened: his car had been on a private lot. It had been taken away by the police. Lewis had to take a taxi to visit the city garage far from the city center. He had to pay a fee of 40 dollars to get his car back. In addition, he got a parking ticket, his first one ever in Greenville.Q:29: Where did Lewis intend to park his car when he came back from work one night?30: What did Lewis think had happened to his car the next morning?31: Where did Lewis finally get his car back?Passage 3Well, to pick up where we left off last time, I believe we agreed that creativity is a mysterious idea. It was those things we all recognize when we see it, but we don’t really understand what it is. We seem tofeel that some people are naturally creative, but we don’t know how they got that way. Is creativity a natural gift like good looks, or is it something that can be acquired like knowledge? Perhaps if we analyze the creative process carefully, we might get some insight into what it is and how it might work in our lives. The creative process has always been accepted as the source of all important work in the arts, but we should not think the creativity plays a role only in the arts. Every major scientific discovery began with someone imagining the world to look differently from the way others saw it. And this is what creativity is all about -- imagining the world in a new way. And despite what you may believe about the limits of your own creative imaginations, we all have the potential to imagine the world in an absolutely new way. In fact, you are born with it. It is your birth right as a human being. And what’s more, you use it every day, almost every moment of your life. Your creative imagination is what you use to make sense of your experiences. It’s your creative mind that gets meaning from chaos of experiences and brings order to your world.32. What did the speaker most probably discuss last time?33. What is the widely accepted idea about the creative process?34. What leads to major scientific discoveries according to the speaker?35. What does the speaker imply about the creative process?复合式听写:Students have been complaining more and more about stolen property. Radios, cell phones, bicycles, pocket calculators and books have all been reported stolen. Are there enough campus police to do the job? There are twenty officers in the campus security division. Their job is to handle crime, accidents, lost-and-found items and traffic problem。

心之所向,所向披靡【短对话】1.W: What a wonderful performance! Your rock band has never sounded better.M: Many thanks. I guess all those hours of practice in the past month are finally paying off.Q:What does the man mean?2.M: I can't decide what to do for my summer vacation. I either want to go on a bike tour of Europe or go diving in Mexico.W: Well, we're offering an all-inclusive two-week trip to Mexico for only 300 dollars.Q:What does the woman suggest the man do for his vacation?3. W: How long do you think this project might take?M: I'd say about three months, but it could take longer if something unexpected happened. Maybe we'd better allow an extra month, so we won’t have to worry about being late. Q: Why does the man say extra time should be allowed for the project?4. M: I'm thinking about becoming a member here, and I'd like some information.W: Sure. A three-month membership costs 150 dollars, and that includes use of the wait-room, sauna and pool. I'll give you a free path so that you can try out the facilities before you decide.Q: What do we learn from the conversation?5.W: I'm sorry to hear that you failed the Physics course, Ted. M: Let's face it. I'm just not cut out to be a scientist.Q: What does the man mean?6.M: Gary insisted on buying the food for the picnic.W: That's pretty generous of him. But shouldn't we at least offer to share the expenses? He has a big family to support. Q: What does the woman suggest they do?7.W: Did you see the headlines in the paper this morning? M: Year. Apparently the bus company will be laying off its employees if they can't reach an agreement on wages by midnight.Q: What did the man read about?8.W: Have we received payment for the overseas order we delivered last month?M: Yes. The cheque came in yesterday afternoon. I'll be depositing it when I go the bank today.Q: What is the woman concerned about?【六级听力长对话原文1】W: OK, that's it. Now we have to make a decision. We might as well do that now, don't you think?M: Sure, let's see. First we saw Frank Brisenski. What did you think of him?W: Well, he's certainly a very polite young man.M: And very relaxed, too.W: But his appearance…M: En… He wasn't well dressed. He wasn't even wearing a tie.W: But he did have a nice voice. He sounded good on the telephone.M: True. And I thought he seemed very intelligent. He answered Dona's questions very well.W: That's true, but dressing well is important. Well, let's think about the others. Now what about Barbara Jones? Shehad a nice voice, too. She sounded good on the telephone, and she was well dressed, too.M: En… She did look very neat, very nicely dressed, but…W: But so shy. She wouldn't be very good at talking to people at the front desk.M: En…OK. Now who was the next? Ar…Yes, David Wallace.I thought he was very good, had a lot of potential. What do you think?W: En… He seemed like a very bright guy. He dressed very nicely, too. And he had a really nice appearance.M: He seemed relaxed to me, the type of person people feel comfortable with right away.W: He was polite, but also very friendly and relaxed as you say. I think he'll be good with the guests at the front desk. M: He had a very pleasant voice, too.W: That's right. OK, good! I guess we have our receptionist then, don't you?M: Yes, I think so. We'll just offer the job to…Question 9: What are the speakers looking for?Question 10: What is Frank Brisenski's weakness? Question 11: What do the speakers decide to do?【六级听力长对话原文2】W: Hello.M: Hello. Is that the reference library?W: Yes, can I help you?M: I hope so. I ran earlier and asked for some information about Dennis Hutton, the scientist. You asked me to ring back.W: Oh, yes. I have found something.M: Good. I've got a pencil and paper. Perhaps you could read out what it says.W: Certainly. Hutton Dennis, born Darlington, 1836, died New York, 1920.M: Yes, got that.W: Inventer and physicist, the son of a farmworker. He was admitted to the University of London at the age of 15. M: Yes.W: He graduated at 17 with the first class degree in physics and mathematics. All right?M: Yes, all right.W: He made his first notable achievement at the age of 18. It was a method of refrigeration which rolls from his work in low temperature physics. He became professor of mathematics at the University of Manchester at 24, wherehe remained for twelve years. During that time, he married one of his students, Natasha WilloughbyM: Yes, go on.W: Later working together in London, they laid the foundations of modern physics by showing that normal laws of cause and effect do not apply at the level of subatomic particles. For this he and his wife received the Nobel Prize for physics in 1910, and did so again in 1912 for their work on very high frequency radio waves. In his lifetime, Hutton patented 244 inventions. Do you want any more?M: Yes, when did he go to America?W: Let me see. In 1920 he went to teach in New York and died there suddenly after only three weeks. Still he was a good age.M: Yes, I suppose so. Well, thanks.Question 12: What do we learn about Dennis Hutton when he was 15?Question 13: What did Dennis Hutton do at the age of 24? Question 14: For what were Dennis Hutton and his wife awarded the Nobel Prize a second time?Question 15: Why did Dennis Hutton go to New York?六级短文1原文In America, white tailed deer are more numerous than ever before, so abundant in fact that they've become a suburban nuisance and a health hazard.Why can't the herd be thinned the old-fashioned way? The small community of North Haven on Long Island is home to some six hundred to seven hundred deer. The department of Environmental Conservation estimates the optimum population at 60. The town has been browsed bare of vegetation except where gardens and shrubs are protected by high fences.Drivers routinely collide with deer and there are so many dead bodies left by the side of the road that the town has made it a deal with a local pet cemetery to collect and dispose of the bodies. Some people in the town have become ill from deer transmitted diseases. On the occasions when hunting has been tried, local animal rights people have worked to secure court orders against the hunts. And when that is failed, they stop the hunters, banging on pots and pans to alert the deer. Town meetings called to discuss the problem inevitably dissolved into confrontations.The activists believe simply that the deer are not the problem. Some communities have even discussed thepossibility of bringing wolves back into the ecological mix. That means wolves in the suburbs of New York. It is almost too wonderful not to try it. The wolves would kill deer of course. They would also terrorize and kill dogs and cats which is not what the suburban dwellers have in mind. Questions 16 to 18 are based on the passage you have just heardQ16. What do we learn about white-tailed deer in North Haven?Q17. Why do local animal rights people bang on pots and pans?Q18. What would happen if wolves were brought back into the ecological mix?六级短文2原文And now, if you'll walk this way, ladies and gentlemen, the next room we're going to see is the room in which the family used to hold their formal dinner parties and even occasionally entertain heads of state and royalty. However, they managed to keep this room friendly and intimate. And I think you'll agree. It has a very informal atmosphere, quite unlike some grand houses you visit. The curtains were never drawn, even at night, so guests got a view of the lakeand fountains outside which were lit up at night – a very attractive sight. As you can see, ladies and gentlemen, the guests were seated very informally around this oval table, which would add to the relaxed atmosphere. The table dates from the 18th century and is made from Spanish oak. It's rather remarkable for the fact that although it's extremely big, it's supported by just six rather slim legs. However, it seems to have survived like that for 200 years. So it's probably going to last a bit longer. The chairs which go with the table are not a complete set. There were originally six of them. They are interesting for the fact that they are very plain and undecorated for the time, with only one plain central panel at the back and no armrests. I myself find them rather uncomfortable to sit in for very long, but people were used to more discomfort in the past. And now, ladies a nd gentlemen, if you'd like to follow me into the great hall…Q19. What do we learn about the speaker?Q20. What does the speaker say about the room they are visiting?Q21. What is said about the oval table in the room?Q22. What does the speaker say about the chairs?六级短文3原文Janet James was 22 years old when she was diagnosed with MS—a disease that attacks the body's nerves. She has just graduated from college and got a job at an advertising agency when she began to sense that something strange was going on inside her body.When James realized how severe her illness was, she knew she had better hurry up and live life. MS is the biggest cripplerof young adults. And although she didn't have many symptoms, she knew it was just a matter of time. First on her agenda was to pursue her dream of hosting a pop music programme. She worked at a radio station for a year, always aware that her body was degenerating. Then her best friend moved away. And one night James began screaming, "I got to go! I got to go!" Two weeks later, she arrived at Alaska, thousands of miles from her friends, her family and her past. "Everything fell into a place", she recalls. A 23-year-old girl with an incurable disease can fly to Alaska and everything can work out. The MS attacks came and went. And most of the time they hardly slowed her down. James hiked, fished, learnt to sail and experimented with hot air ballooning. "I lived for adventure", she says. "Nobody ever had a better time or did more exotic strange things than I did in an 80-year period."Inevitably however, the day came when she was so weakened that she had to return to Pittsburgh, her home town. There she began relieving her adventures by writing a book about them. Her book was published in 1993. Questions 23 to 25 are based on the passage you have just heard.Questions 23What does the speaker say about MS?Questions 24What did Janet James decide to do after her disease was diagnosed?Questions 25What's sort of person can we infer Janet James is?the ecological mix?听力填空原文It’s difficult to estimate the number of youngsters involved in home schooling where children are not sent to school and receive their formal education from one or both parents. Legislation and court decisions have made it legally possible in most states for parents to educate their children at home and each year more people take advantage of that opportunity.Some states require parents or a home tutor to meet teacher certification standards, and many require parents to complete legal forms to verify that their children are receiving instruction in state approved curriculum. Supporters of home education claim that it is less expensive and far more efficient than mass public education. Moreover they site several advantages: alleviation of school overcrowding, strengthen family relationships, lower dropout rates, the facts that students are allowed to learn at their own rate, increased motivation, higher standardized test scores, and reduced discipline problems.Critics of the home schooling movement content that it creates as many problems as it solves. They acknowledge that, in a few cases, home schooling offers educational opportunities superior to those found in most public schools, but few parents can provide such educational advantages. Some parents who withdraw their children from the schools in favor of home schooling have an inadequate educational background and insufficient formal training to provide a satisfactory education for their children. Typically, parents have fewer technological resources at their disposal than do schools. However, the relatively inexpensive computertechnology that is readily available today is causing some to challenge the notion that home schooling is in any way inferior to more highly structured classroom education.评论,观念,各有不同做好自己那份就好。
