Where have you been?W: Oh. Hi, Dan. I was just at the library. I have to hand in my biology paper tomorrow.M: Tomorrow? Oh, no! I thought it wasn't due till Monday.W: Oh. Don't worry. It is due Monday. But I'm going away for the weekend and won't be back till Monday night.M: Oh, where are you going?W:California. We're having a family reunion. It's my grandmother's ninetieth birthday,so all the cousins and aunts and uncles are going. She planned the whole thing herself.M: Wow. That's great. How many people will be there?W: Around sixty.

I'm doing it on bees and how they're able to recognize whether another bee is related to them.W: How can they tell?M: They use their sense of smell. The sweat bees guard their nest this way. If another bee approaches the nest, the guard determines if the new bee is familiar. If it is, it's allowed to enter.W: Interesting. Can other insects do this? Well, the paper wasps can. Each wasp nest has a special combination of plant fibers and so the wasps that live there have a unique smell. Those two are the only kinds I've read about so far.M: Well, you've still got time.

What are you doing?M: Oh. Hi,Linda. I'm working on a report on energy sources for my environmental science class. But I'm having trouble finding enough information.W: You know, we were talking about sources of fuel in my class today.M: Yeah?W: Prof Collins. He's an authority on energy sources. He was telling us about a new way of getting fuel oil from coal.M: I didn't know that was possible.W: He said something about coal being set on fire and blasted with a mixture of steam and oxygen. This process produces a gas made up of hydrogen and carbon, the ...hum, the basic elements of oil.M: And then they do something to change that gas to oil?W: Right. First, since coal contains fewer hydrogen atoms than oil, they have to add some extra hydrogen to the gas. Then impurities are washed out with methanol, I think, before this gas is sent on to reactors where it's changed into oil.M: Since coal is so plentiful I guess it won't be long till this new type of oil will be available all over the place, ah?W: I doubt it. Prof. Collins said something about the process not be economically enough to use in this country. At any rate, you really ought to talk to him. He'll be able to help you more than I can and he's got office hours all afternoon today.M: Thanks. He's over in Anderson Hall, right?W: Right.35.What are the students mainly discussing?(A) An alternative use of fuel oil.(B) A way to make fuel oil less polluting.(C) A new method for locating underground oil.(D) A new source of fuel oil.36.How did the woman learn about the process she describes?(A) She was doing research for a paper on it.(B) She read a newspaper article about it.(C) She was told about it by her roommate.(D) She heard about it in class.37.In the process described by the woman, why is the coal burned?(A) To produce a gas containing carbon and hydrogen.(C) To heat the reactors(D) To prevent dangerous gases from forming38.What does the woman mention as a disadvantage of the process she describes?(A) It hasn't been fully tested.(B) It's quite expensive.(D) The gas it produces is harmful to the environment.Questions 39- 42 Listen to part of a talk in a music class. The professor is discussing a musical theater production.It may seem strange that we're discussing music from a Broadway production in this class, "The Lion King" especially, since it's based on a popular Hollywood movie. I mean music performed for Broadway theater in the heart of New York City surely would seem to be in the western tradition of popular music and not have much in common with the music we've been studying in this course, such as gamelan music of Indonesia, or Zulu chants of South Africa–musicthat developed outside the western tradition of Europe and America. But in fact, musicians have a longstanding tradition of borrowing from one another's cultures. And this production's director intentionally included both western and non-western music. That way, some of the rhythms, instruments, harmonies typical of non-western music contrast with and complement popular music more familiar to audiences in North America and Europe, music like rock, jazz or Broadway style show tunes. So I want to spend the rest of this class and most of the next one on the music from the show "The Lion King" as a way of summarizing some of the technical distinctions between typical western music and the non-western music thatwe've been studying. Now the African influence on the music is clear, the story takes place in Africa. So the director got a South African composer to write songs with a distinctly African sound. And the songs even include words from African languages. But we'll get back to the African influence later. First let's turn to the music that was written for the shadow puppet scenes in "The Lion King", music based on the Indonesian music used in the shadow puppet theater of that region.39.What is the talk mainly about?(A) The influence of European popular music on non-Western music.(B) The musical background of the director of the Broadway version of The Lion King(C) The types of music used in the Broadway version of The Lion King.King.40.What can be inferred about most of the music the students have studied in the course?(A) It was performed by the Zulu people of South Africa.(B) It developed outside the musical traditions of Europe.(D) The students heard it performed in New York City.41.Why were African words included in some songs for the Broadway version of "The Lion King"?(A) The director is of African ancestry.(B) The director wanted the songs in the Broadway version to be identical to the songs in the film.(C) The Broadway version was first performed in Africa.(D) The story takes place in Africa.42. What will the professor probably talk about next?(A) A type of music that originated in Indonesia.(C) The plot of The Lion King(D) Popular rock andjazz music performed in The Lion King.Questions 43-46 Listen to part of a talk in a class on the history of science.In ancient times, many people believed the earth was a flat disc. Well over 2,000 years ago, theancient Greek philosophers were able to put forward two good arguments proving that it was not.Direct observation of heavenly bodies was the basis of both these arguments. First, the Greeks knewthat during eclipses of the moon, the earth was between the sun and the moon, and they saw that duringthese eclipses, the earth's shadow on the moon was always round, they realized that this could be trueonly if the earth was spherical. If the earth were a flat disc, then its shadow during eclipses would notbe a perfect circle, it would be stretched out into a long ellipse. The second argument was based onwhat the Greeks saw during their travels. They noticed that the North Star, or Polaris, appeared lower inthe sky when they traveled south, in more northerly regions, the North Star appeared to them to bemuch higher in the sky. By the way, it was also from this difference in the apparent position of theNorth Star that the Greeks first calculated the approximate distance around the circumference of theearth, a figure recorded in ancient documents says 400,000 stadia, that's the plural of the word stadium.Today, it's not known exactly what length one stadium represents, but let's say it was about 200 meters,the length of many athletic stadiums. This would make the Greek's estimate about twice the figureaccepted today, a very good estimate for those writing so long before even the fast telescope wasinvented.43.What is the talk mainly about?(A) How ancient philosophers measured the distance between heavenly bodies.(B) How ancient philosophers explained the cause of an eclipse of the Moon.(C) Why ancient philosophers thought the Earth was a sphere.44.According to the professor, what were, the beliefs of the Greek philosophers based upon?(A) How the natural world was described in Greek mythology.(B) What they observed directly.(D) Measurements made with scientific instruments.45.What does the professor say about ancient Greeks who traveled south?(A) They noticed an apparent change in the position of the North Star.(C) They were the first to estimate the distance between heavenly bodies.(D) They wanted to prove that the Earth was flat.46.What does the professor say the term stadium refers to?(A) A place for making astronomical observations.(B) An instrument used for observing stars.(C) A unit of measurement.(D) The North Star.Questions 47-50. Listen to the beginning of a lecture given by a history professor.Good morning, class. Before we begin today, I would like to address an issue that one of you reminded me of after the last lecture. As you may recall, last time I mentioned that Robert E. Peary was the first person to reach the North Pole. Umm, what I neglected to mention was the controversy around Peary's pioneering accomplishment. In 1910, a committee of the national geographical society examined Commodore Peary's claim to have reached the North Pole on April 6th1909 and found no reason to doubt him. This judgment was actually confirmed by a committee of the US Congress in 1911. Nevertheless, Peary's claim was surrounded by controversy. This was largely due to the competing claim of Doctor Frederic Cook who told the world he had reached the Pole a four-year earlier. Over the decades Peary was given the benefit of the doubt, but critics persisted in raising questions about his navigation and the distances he claimed to have covered. So the Navigation Foundation spent an additional 12 months of exhaustive examination of documents relating to Peary's polar expedition. The documents supported Peary's claims about the distances he covered. After also conducting an extensive computer analysis of photos taken by Peary at the pole, they concluded that Pierre and his companions did in fact reach the near vicinity of the North Pole on April 6th, 1909. OK, today we're going to talk about exploration of the opposite end of the world. I assume you all read chapter 3 in our text and are now familiar with the names: Emerson and Scott.47.Why did the professor mention the controversy surrounding Peary?(A) One of the students asked him about it in the previous class.(C) He had just read Dr. Frederick Cock's travel log.(D) The students were required to read about it for that day's class.48.What did Doctor Cook maintain?(A) That Peary had announced his success prematurely.(B) That the investigation of Peary's expedition wasn't thorough.(C) That Peary wasn't an experienced explorer.(D) That he had reached the pole before Peary did.49.How did the experts determine that Peary reached the North Pole?(A) They talked to one of Peary's companions.(B) They interviewed Peary.(C) They conducted a computer analysis of photographs.(D) They examined Peary's navigation tools.50.Which topic will most probably be included in the continuation of today's lecture?(A) Dr. Cook's expedition.(B) The conclusions of the Navigation Foundation.(C) Exploration of the Equator.(D) Exploration of the South Pole.。

1月7日托福听力真题
免费试听：【四科联报】托福听说读写临考预测班(针对1月考)
Conversation1：学生和教授
学生去找教授，寒暄了一会儿。
教授说，你之前的paper我搞丢了，你再发我下。
学生说，好的。
然后就开始问教授，她接下去要去做实践教学，她想用一种叫做consensus的教学方法。
具体就是，让一个学生扮演老师，读一段其他学生写的文章。
学生们可以提出质疑，如果意见不和，就相互摆事实讲道理。
直到解决这个问题。
文章剩下的内容就让全班分小组按这种模式讨论。
教授说，你掌握了这种方法的精髓，但是在实施之前要和那个班的老师讨论好。
这也是实践教学的必要环节。
Lecture1：集会营销
教授说，同学们，你们注意过吗？球赛的时候，会有好多小摊贩卖东西。
这种现在早几个世纪前就有了。
当时有一个叫H的民族，他们有很多球场，在这些球场发现了很多陶罐，这些陶罐来自于5个不同地区且功能都不同。
这就很奇怪了，因为这个民族的生产是去中心化的，但是他们的产品却能够相互协调补充。
而且这种去中心化的市场理论上应该是很不可靠的，因为你不能指望你需要的都能买到。
但是H民族的市场却很可靠。
而且，他们在集会时候卖陶罐，可以让那些住在人口稀少地区的人也可以趁球赛来买，此外，他们的销售量会增大。
有意思的事，一段时间后，H民族的球场骤然减少，随之减少的还有某种陶罐。
Lecture2：青蛙的减少
教授说，世界上有好多两栖动物。
青蛙之是其中一种。
他们的数量在减少。
学生A问，为什么？我看到过可能是因为环境原因。
教授说，是的，还有一种可能是人类活动。
人类活动使得地域都分割开了，干燥区域和潮湿区域分开了。
这让青蛙难以生存。
因为，蛙卵在水里，而成年青蛙活在陆地。
人类的房子和道路就把干湿分割开了。
巴西一个地区正在做相关研究，该地区青蛙种类多，而土地分割又很厉害。
在那里发现，湿地的幼年蛙多余干地，说明分割给他们移动带来了困难。
学生B问，这就是青蛙减少的根本原因吗？教授说，现在还不能确定，需要更多的研究。
Conversation2：学生和图书管理员
学生来找管理员，问哪里可以看到教授reserve的要求他们阅读的文章？管理员指明方向？学生问，我可以看多久？管理员说，两小时。
闭馆之后你可以再来，把文章带回家？但是明早10点之前还回来。
学生说，我明早的课10点30结束，晚点还会怎样？管理员说，每小时罚款30美分。
学生说，那还行。
并问，自己没带电脑怎么办？管理员说，你可以借图书馆的电脑。
不过记得准时还，可借5小时，超过一小时罚款10美刀。
之前就有个学生，闭馆5分钟才赶过来，但是闭馆了还不成。
电脑不像图书，没有自动还书箱。
结果那个学生只能隔天还，罚了100刀。
学生表示，图书馆太不近人情了。
Lecture3：仿生学与机器人制造
教授说，为了制造机器人，专家们专门研究了动物和人类的行走方式。
但是这些机器人能够行走的路面是有限的，只能在坚硬的地面行走。
沙地水面就不行。
后来，专家们观察到一种可以在水面行走的蜥蜴，就拿来观察他们的行动。
专家在水面上放上用于记录蜥蜴行动的玻璃珠，其实就是微型摄像机。
发现这种蜥蜴的水上行走过程，首先，足底放射气囊。
然后，登水。
最后，恢复原状。
专家们现在造出了可以水上行走的机器人，尽管外形和蜥蜴差很多，但是行走原理是一样的。
Lecture4：蝴蝶夫人的演变
教授说，你们知道很多我们现在始认为是经典的音乐一开始可能被认为是个failure吗？比如一些歌剧，要搞懂这个问题，首先得搞清楚过去歌剧迷们是如何看待歌剧的，学生A，你说下。
学生A说，歌剧迷就像现在的球迷，有自己最爱的编曲者和表演者？教授继续说，是的。
拿普契尼的蝴蝶夫人来说。
刚开始大家不喜欢，因为，首先，普直到初演前还在修改谱子，导致大家排练不熟悉，且初演前的排练是保密的，乐评人就很不乐意，觉得被拒绝了。
其次，由于乐评人做了负面宣传，人们去听之前就抱有成见。
第三，蝴蝶只有2幕，传统歌剧有3幕，大家不接受。
后来，歌剧改成了3幕，大家排练多了，初演之后不用保密，大家就开始接受了。
