1Part A Reading aloud (模仿朗读)

It was the beginning of a totally new way of life. But there was another very important difference between these hunter-gatherers and any of their predecessors. They were settling down. A huge shift, which would help spark Europe-wide revolution. Communities settled down and populations expanded. This could have driven the need to start producing food. And as farming spread, the landscape was transformed. Forests were cleared and villages, then towns, then cities would grow, founded by descendants of the small groups of pioneers who first entered Europe around 45, 000 years ago. Those early Europeans were people just like you and me.

A Misunderstanding

Tom paid regular visits to his grandma who lived by herself. Last month, he bought her a smart TV and tried to teach her how to use it. But the old lady was a slow learner. Tom felt he was going to lose his patience. One day, grandma told him that he didn’t need to teach her any more, because she had got a helper. Grandma said a young man just became her neighbor. He was quite warm-hearted. Tom didn’t

if she had given him some money. “No.”Grandma said. But she was going to buy the young man a nice car, because he had been so kind to her. Tom thought the man was a cheater. Knowing that the man would meet grandma at nine o’clock the next morning, Tom managed to get there at nine, too. When he entered the living room, he saw a little boy playing with a red toy car. The boy looked seven years old. Grandma introduced the boy to Tom, calling him “young man”. Tom felt ashamed. He had misunderstood everything.

Test B

1 Part A Reading aloud (模仿朗读)

Back then, most of Arabia was brutal desert. Is it really possible that a handful of Stone Age people could’ve trekked through hundreds of miles of this and gone on to populate the whole world? There is no way they could’ve done it without more widespread sources of fresh water. So, around 70, 000 years ago, the Arabian coastline was very different to today. Freshwater springs bubbled up all the way along it. If our ancestors attempted this route, they would’ve found a lifeline. And it’s perhaps no wonder that there seems to have been just one successful attempt in our ancestors’journey.

Tom was a successful writer. He had written a play and this play was going to be performed on stage. Not surprisingly, he was invited to give his advice on the scenery, the lighting and all the other things that helped to make the play successful. But Tom was a man very difficult to please, as he had his own ideas of how each thing should look like. In one of the scenes in the play, the young lovers watch the sunset together before singing love songs. So it was necessary to produce the effect of a wonderful sunset. Lighting engineers of the theatre worked very hard to produce the sunset effect. They tried out all kinds of arrangements and combinations of lights—red lights, orange lights, yellow lights, blue lights, lights from above, lights from behind. Yet nothing satisfied Tom. One afternoon in the theatre, when he was feeling sleepy, all of a sudden, he saw the exact effect that he had been dreaming of. Tom was very excited. “That’s it!”he shouted to the lighting engineers working behind the stage. But the chief engineer said he couldn’t keep it like that. In fact, lighting the theatre was on fire.

1 Part A Reading aloud (模仿朗读)

In 1905, sitting alone on a city bus, Einstein looks back at the clock tower and what he sees is astonishing. In his imagination, as he reaches the speed of light, the hands of the clock appear frozen in time. Einstein knows that back at the clock tower, time is passing normally. But on Einstein’s light-speed bus, the light from the clock can no longer catch up to him. The faster he races through space, the slower he moves through time. This sparks the birth of Einstein’s “Special Theory of Relativity”, which says that space and time are deeply connected.

A Green T-shirt

Tom had a twin brother who went lost at the age of five. Tom did not have much memory of his brother. He only remembered vaguely that they were both in green T-shirt the day his twin brother was missing. One day, when he was walking along the street, a green T-shirt in the store window attracted his attention. He went in and reached out for the T-shirt. Just then, he heard a gentle voice behind him saying, “It’s a nice T-shirt. I really like it.”The voice sounded like his own. Tom looked back and saw a young man. The young man’s face surprised him. And the young man was also astonished when he saw Tom’s face. It was as if they were looking into a mirror. The two looked just the same. They immediately talked to each other. In their conversation, the young man told Tom that he was adopted and couldn’t only remember much about his biological family. He remembered that he was in a green T-shirt when he got on the wrong bus and left his family from then on. On hearing this, Tom got very excited and burst into tears, “I am your brother.”

Two tasks at one time

Tom is a student of a boarding school. He goes home by school bus every Friday afternoon. He usually gets his bag packed before Friday, as the school bus leaves soon after the Friday afternoon class. But last week, he was too busy to do so. When Tom was about to pack before the class started, he suddenly remembered that he hadn’t prepared a How To Do Something speech for the afternoon class. Little time was left for him to do the packing and prepare the speech. Then he thought of a way to finish both tasks at the same time. He quickly threw everything he needed into his bag and took it to the class. When it was his turn to give the speech, Tom carried his bag to the front of the class. He put it on the table and let the whole class see what a mess it was in the bag. Then Tom said this was not a way to pack a bag. In a lively manner, Tom showed his classmates how to pack clothing and books neatly. When his speech was finished, his bag was well packed. He successfully completed two tasks at one time.

A Slow Dog

One day when Tom was walking down the street, he saw a lady with several little dogs following her. All the dogs looked lovely. Tom counted and found there were eight dogs in total. One dog caught Tom’s attention. It seemed much smaller and slower than the other dogs. Tom felt curious. Just when he was going to ask the lady about the slow dog, she went into a pet shop. Tom saw a sign on the door of the shop that read, “DOGS FOR SALE”. Tom went into the shop and found that the lady was the owner of the shop. He asked her what was wrong with the slow dog. The lady explained that the poor dog was born like that. It could not walk as fast as the other dogs. Tom asked to have a look at the dog again and then said he wanted to buy it. The lady thought Tom was very kind-hearted, so she said that he could have the dog for free. Yet Tom insisted on paying for it. His old grandpa couldn’t walk fast, so Tom believed that the slow dog would be the right companion for his grandpa.
