The show was an instan‎t hit, and runs in severa‎l countr‎i es. The housem‎a tes often become‎stars as a result‎of the show, and appear‎in nation‎a l newspa‎p ers and on other shows. Anothe‎r very popula‎r show is I’m a Celebr‎i ty — Get Me Out Of Here! In this show, 10 celebr‎i ties are taken to the Austra‎l ian jungle‎.

新理念综合教程B O O k4单元测试1本页仅作为文档封面，使用时可以删除This document is for reference only-rar21year.MarchThe soaring number of gender-bending chemicals in the environment has disturbing fertility implications for humans and wildlife, scientists are warning. They say wild animals are being "feminised" by a host of common man-made pollutants which mimic the female sex hormone oestrogen and escape into seas, rivers, the earth and air when waste is disposed of. The chemicals--found in food packaging, cleaning products, plastics, sewage and paint--cause genital deformities, reduce sperm count and even turn males into females. Dozens of species--including polar bears, fish, whales and otters--are suffering, according to the environmental group ChemTrust. Fish have been badly hit by man-made gender-bending chemicals. In one study, half the male fish in British lowland rivers had signs of being feminised. But all vertebrates--or creatures with backbones--have similar sex hormone receptors in their bodies. "Therefore, observations in one species may serve to highlight pollution issues of concern for other vertebrates, including humans," the report says.Its author, Gywnne Lyons, a former government adviser on chemical-pollution, said: "some Urgent action is needed to control gender-bending chemicals and more resources are needed for monitoring wildlife." "If wildlife populations crash, it will be toolate. Unless enough males contribute to the next generation there is areal threat to animal populations in the long term." Some studies have shown that sperm counts in the West have fallen over the past 30 years. Others have shown a rise in boys born with genital deformities. Communities heavily polluted with hormone-disrupting chemicals in Russia, Canada and Italy have produced twice as many girls as boys.Passage TwoBiological diversity has become widely recognized as a critical conservation issue only since the past two decades. The rapid destruction of the tropical rain forests which are the ecosystems with the highest known species diversity on Earth has awakened people to the importance and fragility of biological diversity. The high rate of species extinctions in these environments is jolting, but it is important to recognize the significance of biological diversity in all ecosystems. As the human population continues to expand, it will negatively affect one after another of Earth's ecosystems. In terrestrial ecosystems and in fringe marine ecosystems (such as wetlands), the most common problem is habitat destruction. Inmost situations, the result is irreversible. Now humans are beginning todestroy marine ecosystems through other types of activities, such as the disposal and runoff of poisonous waste; in less than two centuries, by significantly reducing the variety of species on Earth, they have unraveled cons of evolution and irrevocably redirected its course.Certainly, there have been periods in Earth's history when mass extinctions have occurred. The extinction of the dinosaurs was caused by some physical event, either climatic or cosmic. There have also been less dramatic extinctions, as when natural competition between species reached an extreme conclusion. Only percent of the species that have lived on Earth have survived to the present, and it was largely chance that determined which species survived and which died out.However, nothing has ever equaled the magnitude and speed with which the human species is altering the physical and chemical world and demolishing the environment. In fact, there is wide agreement that it is the rate of change humans are inflicting, even more than the changes themselves, that will lead to biological devastation. Life on Earth has continually been in flux as slow physical and chemical changes have occurred on Earth, but lifeneeds time to adapt — time for migration and genetic adaptation within existing species and time for the proliferation of new geneticmaterial and new species that may be able to survive in new environments.26. Which is the best title of the passageA. The Variety of SpeciesB. The Rapid Destruction of the Tropical Rain ForestC. Species' Adaptation to New EnvironmentD. The Impact of Human Activities on Earth's Ecosystems正正确答案：D得分：2分27. According to the passage, how do humans destroy marine ecosystemsA. Through shipping a lot of goods.B. Through disposal and runoff poisonous waste.C. Through destroying Earth's ecosystem.D. Through hunting fish.正确答案：B得分：2分28. What determines which species survived and which died outA. Slow chemical changes.B. Impact of human activities.C. Chance.D. Some physical event.正确答案：C得分：2分29. What will lead to biological devastationA. Climatic or cosmic event.B. Chemical change.C. The rate of change humans are inflicting.D. Physical change.正确答案：C得分：2分30. The natural evolutionary change is different from change caused by humans in that it ____.A. is irreversibleB. affects the ecosystemC. occurs at a faster rateD. occurs at a much slower rate正确答案：D得分：2分Vocabulary and StructureDirections: Each of the following sentences is provided with four choices. ChooseThe destruction of our natural resources and contamination of our food supply continue occur, largely because of the extreme difficulty in affixing (把…固定) legal responsibility on those who continue to treat our environment with reckless abandon (放任). Attempts to prevent pollution by legislation, economic incentives and friendly persuasion have been net by lawsuits, personal and industrial denial and long delays—not only in accepting responsibility, but more importantly, in doing something about it.It seems that only when government decides it can afford tax incentives or production sacrifices is there any initiative for change. Where is industry’s and our recognition that protecting mankind’sgreat treasure is the single most important responsibility If ever there will be time for environmental health professionals to come to the frontlines and provide leadership to solve environmental problems, that time is now.We are being asked, and, in fact, the public is demanding that we take positive action. It is our responsibility as professionals in environmental health to make the difference. Yes, the ecologists, the environmental activists and the conservationists serve to communicate, stimulate thinking and promote behavioral change. However, it is those of us who are paid to make the decisions to develop, improve and enforce environmental standards, I submit, who must lead the charge.We must recognize that environmental health issues do not stop at city limits, county lines, state or even federal boundaries. We can no longer afford to be tunnel-visioned in our approach. We must visualize issues from every perspective to make the objective decisions. We must express our views clearly to prevent media distortion and public confusion.I believe we have a three-part mission for the present. First, we must continue to press for improvements in the quality of lifethat people can make for themselves. Second, we must investigate andunderstand the link between environment and health. Third, we must be able to communicate technical information in a form that citizens can understand. If we can accomplish these three goals in this decade, maybe we can finally stop environmental degradation, and not merely hold it back. We will then be able to spend pollution dollars truly on prevention rather than on bandages.1. We can infer from the first two paragraphs that the industrialists disregard environmental protection chiefly because________.A) they are unaware of the consequences of what they are doingB) they are reluctant to sacrifice their own economic interestsC) time has not yet come for them to put due emphasis on itD) it is difficult for them to take effective measures2. The main task now facing ecologists, environmental activists and conservationists is ________.A) to prevent pollution by legislation, economic incentives and persuasionB) to arouse public awareness of the importance of environmental protectionC) to take radical measures to control environmental pollutionD) to improve the quality of life by enforcing environmental standards3. The word “tunnel-visioned (Line 2, Para. 4) most probably means “________”.A) narrow-mindedB) blind to the factsC) short-sightedD) able to see only one aspect4. Which of the following, according to the author, should play the leading role in the solution of environmental problemsA) Legislation and government intervention.B) The industry’s understanding a nd support.C) The efforts of environmental health professionals.D) The cooperation of ecologists, environmental activists and conservationists.5. Which of the following is true according to the last paragraphA) Efforts should be exerted on pollution prevention instead of on remedial measures.B) More money should be spent in order to stop pollution.C) Ordinary citizens have no access to technical information on pollution.D) Environmental degradation will be stopped by the end of this decade.参考答案：1The word nature is derived from the Latin word natura, meaning "essential quality," "origin," "innate disposition",2Natura originally related to the intrinsic characteristics that plants, animals, and other features of the world develop of their own accord.[1][2] The concept of nature as a whole, the physical universe, is one of several expansions of the original notion; 3Within the various uses of the word today, "nature" may refer to the general realm of various types of living plants and animals,4and in some cases to the processes associated with inanimate5objects–the way that particular types of things exist and change6of their own accord, such as the weather and geology of the the matter and energy of which all these things are composed.7 It is not often taken to mean the "natural environment" or wilderness–wild animals, rocks, forest, beaches, and in general those things that8 have not been substantially altered by human intervention, or which persist despite human intervention. For, example, manufactured objects and human interaction generally are not considered part of nature, unless qualified as, for example, "human nature" or "the whole of nature."9This more traditional concept of natural things, which can still be found today, implies a distinction between the natural and the artificial,10with the artificial being understood as that which has been brought into being by a human consciousness or a human mind.。

At the end of each passage, you will hear some questions. All the recordings will be played once only. After you hear a question, please choose the best answer from the four choices marked A), B), C) and D).Passage OnePeople from different cultures have very different feelings about hugging and touching. Some Americans may touch the arm of the person they are talking to while they are speaking. A man may gently slap another man on the back when greeting him. Many Americans hug their family members and good friends when they greet them or say goodbye. However, some Americans do not enjoying being hugged in public. There is a great variety of feelings about hugging strangers. Some people will warmly hug a new person they are introduced to. Others may take a long time before they give a friend a hug when they say hello or goodbye. People from South America or southern Europe frequently touch the person they are speaking to. They touch on the arm, hand, or shoulder. People from Japan seldom touch at all when speaking to others. In China, boys may put their arms around other boys, and girls may walk arm-in-arm or even holding hands. However, in America, boys do not put their arms around other boys. If you do, people will consider you odd. In a social group, American women often sit with their ankles crossed, or sometimes their legs crossed at the knee. Men often sit with one leg crossing the other, with the ankle resting on the knee. However, in China, if you sit in this way, you are considered to be rude or impolite. Chinese people are asked to sit with two legs at the same level, and with your feet on the ground. In the United States, where being casual and friendly is valued, people often fall into chairs when they sit. In many countries, such as Germany, and Sweden, where lifestyles tend to be more formal, slouching is considered a sign of rudeness and poor manners.Questions 12 to 14 are based on the passage you have just heard.What will American men do when they meet?They may touch the arm of the person they are talking to.They may slap another man on the back.They may kiss a lady on the cheek.They may touch the shoulders.Which of the following parts of body is not frequently touched by people from South America or southern Europe when they are speaking to someone?The arm.The hand.The shoulder.The back.In China, how should a person sit?With the legs crossed at the knee.With the ankles crossed.With both legs at the same level and feet on the ground.Fall into chairs and slouch.Passage TwoForeigners are not expected to know all of these things the minute they step off the plane and will be given great latitude, however your knowledge of what is not acceptable can make your transition to life in China much smoother. If you want someone to come to you, don't wave them over with an upturned finger. This is impolite. Wave them over with your fingers turned down, as if they were sweeping something toward you. The same motion is used when hailing a cab. When using a toothpick in public, cover your mouth with your hand. When eating with a group, if there is a dish everyone is sharing (which is customary), do not use your chopsticks or the spoon you are eating with to dish your food. Use the serving spoon to dish into your bowl or plate and then use your spoon or chopsticks to eat. If someone gives you a present, it's best not to open it in front of them. When someone gives a business card to you, do not stick it in your hip pocket. Also, don't stick it in your wallet and then put your wallet in your hip pocket. You would be symbolically stating that you want to sit on them! Putting a business card in your wallet and then placing the wallet in a front pocket is no problem. Questions 15 to 17 are based on the passage you have just heard.What should a person do when he or she wants someone to come?Wave with an upturned finger.Wave with fingers turned down.Wave from side to side.Wave on top of your head.What should one use when there is a dish everyone is sharing?Use one's own spoon.Use other people's spoon.Use the serving spoon.Use one's own chopsticks.When someone gives a business card, what should you do?Stick it in the hip pocket.Stick it in the wallet and then put the wallet in hip pocket.Stick it in the wallet and then put the wallet in a front pocket.Stick it to the box.Passage ThreeIn the United States, it's important to be on time for appointments, classes, meetings, etc. This isn't true in all countries, however. An American professor discovered this difference while teaching a class in a Brazilian university. The two-hour class was scheduled to begin at 10 a.m. and end at noon. On the first day, when the professor arrived on time, there was no one in the classroom. Many students came after 10 a.m.; several arrived after 10:30 a.m. Two students came after 11 a.m. Although all the students greeted the professor as they arrived, few apologized for their lateness. Were these students being rude? He decided to study the students' behavior. The professor talked to American and Brazilian students about lateness in both informal and formal situations; lunch with a friend and a university class. He gave them an example and asked them how they would react. If they had a lunch appointment with a friend, the average American students defined lateness as 19 minutes after the agreed time. On the other hand, the Brazilian student felt the friend was late after 33 minutes.Questions 18 to 20 are based on the passage you have just heard.What is important in the United States?To be polite.To be modest.To be competitive.To be punctual.What happened to an American professor in a Brazilian university?A lot of students did not show up.A lot of students were early.A lot of students were more than 30 minutes late.A lot of students apologized for being late.What did the professor do as a study?He talked to American students about lateness for a lunch with a friend.He talked to both American and Brazilian students about lateness for both formal and informal occasions.He talked to Brazilian students about lateness for a university class.He talked to American and Brazilian students about being late for informal situations.Directions: In this section, you will hear a passage three times.

After you hear a question, please choose the best answer from the four choices marked A), B), C) and D).Passage OneA Gallup survey released on Friday, July 12, 2011 found a total of 59 percent of Americans support a ban on smoking in all public places. The July 7-10 survey among 1,016 national adults showed a change in the public's attitude toward public smoking ban. In 2001, when Gallup first asked about a ban on public smoking, 39 percent were in favor, an attitude that stayed roughly the same through 2007. At the same time, the poll also found that fewer than two in 10 people supported the idea of making smoking totally illegal. According to the American Lung Association, 27 states plus the District of Columbia have passed comprehensive smoke-free laws. A New York City law bans smoking in virtually all public places, including outdoor plazas and beaches.Questions 12 to 14 are based on the passage you have just heard.When was the survey about the ban on smoking released?On Saturday.On Wednesday.On Thursday.On Friday.How many days did the survey last?July 7-11.3 days.July 8-10.4 days.What is the change in the public's attitude towards public smoking ban?More people were in support of the ban in 2007.Less people were in favor of the ban in 2007.More people are against smoking in public places in 2011.Fewer people are against smoking in public places in 2011.Passage TwoA recent online poll indicated 59.5% of netizens think negative of the county's neo-wealthy who shoot to fame on the annual rich lists, the China YouthDaily reported.

Despite of the public discontent over those billionaires, it's a general trend that the group of new-rich will continue to grow during economic booming times, Wu Bi, a financial writer said. The increasing dissatisfaction may derive from the impression that the growth room for the general public has declined and it's harder to get rich now than before, Wu said.Questions 15 to 17 are based on the passage you have just heard.What does the recent online poll indicate about netizens' attitude towards the country's neo-wealthy?59.5% of netizens think negative of them.69.5% of netizens think negative of them.59.5% of netizens think positive of them.69.5% of netizens think positive of them.Among all the reasons behind the business success, which is the least believed by the netizens?Government connections.Economic reform.Loose policy.Business strategy and personal struggle.What may be the cause of the increasing dissatisfaction of the general public? The dissatisfaction may derive from the impression that the growth room for the rich has increased.The dissatisfaction may derive from the impression that it is more difficult for the general public to get rich.The dissatisfaction may be caused by the jealousy of the general public.The dissatisfaction may be caused by the increasingly less room for employment. Passage ThreeA World Book Day poll today reveals the top ten contemporary novels with genuine word-of-mouth appeal in a search to find the best book to talk about. Since the campaign was launched last November, over 3,000 book lovers have discussed and debated online the "talkability" merits of a list of 100 titles, including several hidden gems. World Book Day's shortlist — which includes seven first novels —shows the qualities of what really makes a discussion-worthy book in contemporary Britain: serious issues, character-led drama, and often a splash of humour. Judging by the books featured on the "Books to Talk About" shortlist, readers relish hard-hitting themes and challenging plots. Moreover, the strong showing of the independent publishing sector on the list confirms that it is currently in excellent health. The shortlist compiled by World Book Day() includes novels set during South Africa, wartime England and the Partition of India and Pakistan, revealing an appetite for powerful stories told against the background of the drama of recent history. Featuring subjects that include racially-motivated murder, mental breakdown, terminal illness, juvenile delinquency and the Moors murderer Myra Hindley, the shortlist of Books to Talk About indicates that readers relish emotional subjects, and enjoy talking about the social and personal issues that arise from a good story. Gods in Alabama, Joshilyn Jackson's gothic coming-of-age novel, emerged as the book clubs' favourite novel. 35 per cent of its votes came from members of reading groups. The most popular book amongst female readers was Jenny Downham's moving portrait of a 16-year-old battling leukaemia, Before IDie. Seven of the ten titles are first novels, proving that tough ideas and ambitious, evocative settings are alive and well in today's fictional debuts. Questions 18 to 20 are based on the passage you have just heard.How many book lovers have discussed and debated online the talkability merits of the books?Fewer than 2,000.More than 3,000.More than 4,000.More than 5,000.According to the results, what are the qualities of discussion-worthy books in Britain now?Scientific issues and fiction.Serious issues, character-led drama and often a sense of humor.Funny stories and romantic plots.Detective stories and science fiction.Which organization compiled the shortlist of the Books to Talk About?World Book Day.The readers themselves.The British Council.The BBC program.Directions: In this section, you will hear a passage three times.

But while some pay as much as 20,000 yuan ($2,980) a month for international schools or show concern about Chinese-language-only instruction in local schools, more expat parents, like American Julie Johnson, are now turning to a third alternative, homeschooling. Johnson started teaching her 11-year-old daughter Kaylen Hou in Taiwan before the family moved to Beijing three years ago. Following an online curriculum from the US, Johnson, who holds a master’s degree in Chinese literature, teaches her daughter everything from mathematics to geography.“Foreigners who are blessed with expat package may not think too much about their schooling options,” Johnson told the Global Times. “But as more families move here who do not have tuition covered, they want to explore other options.”Homeschooling does not mean sitting at home. Besides three hours of study, Hou’s schedule is fully packed with yoga, swimming, music and dance classes. Johnson also takes her daughter on field trips around China, which she believes is abetter and more interesting way to learn about a foreign country. Along with other local parents, Johnson founded the Beijing Homeschoolers Network, a community for families to share resources and organize group activities. According to Johnson, head of Beijing Homeschoolers, its membership has grown from only a few to more than 100 in three years, and Johnson believes there are more out there.Questions 12 to 14 are based on the passage you have just heard.How much does an international school cost?20,000 yuan a year.10,000 dollars a year.20,000 yuan a month.10,000 dollars a month.What is the Beijing Homeschoolers Network?A network on the Internet.A community for families to share resources and organize group activities.A parent organization.An education assessment organization.What is not included in Hou’s schedule of homeschooling?Sitting at home.Yoga.Music.Dance classes.Passage TwoA new school year has begun in America. But some children do not go to school. Instead, they learn at home, usually with their parents as teachers. Educational companies, libraries, school systems and the Internet provide families with teaching materials. Homeschooling is increasingly popular. Homeschooling groups estimate that 2 million children, around two percent, learn at home. The last government estimate was 850,000 in 1999. Current numbers are not expected until next year. Some parents choose homeschooling because of their religious beliefs. Others say it provides more time for the family to be together. Many parents also believe homeschooling avoids problems of a lot of traditional schools. One problem is classes with too many students. Critics, though, say children need to attend school with other children to help them learn things like social skills. They also say that some homeschooled children do not get a very good education. All fifty states and the District of Columbia permit homeschooling. Some, however, require more preparation by parents or testing of children than others do.Questions 15 to 17 are based on the passage you have just heard.Which of the following is not mentioned by the speaker as a source of teaching materials for parents?Educational companies.Libraries.School systems.TV programs.How many children learn at home according to the speaker?850,000.2 million.950,000.1 million.What kind of problems can homeschooling avoid?A large size of class.Variety of classes.Socializing.Learning of history.Passage ThreeHomeschooling is as old as the country. In farm areas, people often lived far from a school. Then, in 1852, the state of Massachusetts passed the first law to require children to attend school. The public education system grew. By the 1960s and ‘70s, however, some Americans believed that traditional education was not helping their children. So a number of parents began homeschooling. Homeschool expert Linda Dobson says some parents began to teach their children at home when some religious schools closed. This happened after changes in tax laws in the 1980s. Since then, she says, more people have joined the movement — rich and poor, and people from many races, religions and political beliefs. There is even a National Home School Honor Society. Membership is based in part on the same tests that students take in school. Homeschooled children go to college and have also won top competitions. These include this year’s National Geographic Bee. Fourteen-year-old James Williams knew that the Indian state of Goa is a former colony of Portugal.Questions 18 to 20 are based on the passage you have just heard.When did the state of Massachusetts pass the first law to require children to attend school?In 1842.In 1853.In 1852.In 1952.What happened by the 1960s and ‘70s?Some Americans believed that traditional education was not helping their children.Some educators established a National Home School Honor Society.A lot of parents started to teach their children themselves because of political reasons.A lot of Americans believed that the public education was growing fast.What is the membership of the National Home School Honor Society based on?
