"SECTION III: Reading ComprehensionPart ARead the following texts and answer the questions which accompany them by choosing A, B, C or D. Mark your answers on ANSWER SHEET 1.Text 1. In recent years, there has been a steady assault on salt from the doctors: salt is bad for you? regardless of your health. Politicians also got on board. "There is a direct relationship," US congressman Smith noted, "between the amount of sodium a person consumes and heart disease, circulatory disorders, stroke and even early death. "Frightening, if true! But many doctors and medical researchers are now beginning to feel the salt scare has gone too far. "All this hue and cry about eating salt is unnecessary," Dr. Dustan insists. "For most of us it probably doesn’t make much difference how much salt we eat. " Dustan’s most recent short-term study of 150 people showed that those with normal blood pressure experienced no change at all when placed on an extremely low-salt diet, or later when salt was reintroduced. Of the hypertensive subjects, however, half of those on the low-salt diet did experience a drop in blood pressure, which returned to its previous level when salt was reintroduced. "An adequate to somewhat excessive salt intake hasprobably saved many more lives than it has cost in the general population," notes Dr. John H. Laragh. "So a recommendation that the whole population should avoid salt makes no sense. "Medical experts agree that everyone should practice reasonable "moderation" in salt consumption. For the average person, a moderate amount might run from four to ten grams a day, or roughly 1/2 to 1/3 of a teaspoon. The equivalent of one to two grams of this salt allowance would come from the natural sodium in food. The rest would be added in processing, preparation or at the table. Those with kidney, liver or heart problems may have to limit dietary salt, if their doctor advises. But even the very vocal "low salt" exponent, Dr. Arthur Hull Hayes, Jr. admits that "we do not know whether increased sodium consumption causes hypertension. " In fact, there is growing scientific evidence that other factors may be involved: deficiencies in calcium, potassium, perhaps magnesium; obesity (much more dangerous than sodium); genetic predisposition; stress. "It is not your enemy," says Dr. Laragh. "Salt is the No. 1 natural component of all human tissue, and the idea that you don’t need it is wrong. Unless your doctor has proven that you have a salt-related health problem, there is no reason to give it up. "1. According to some doctors and politicians, the amount of salt consumed[A] exhibits as an aggravating factor to people in poor health.[B] cures diseases such as stroke and circulatory disorders.[C] correlates highly with some diseases.[D] is irrelevant to people suffering from heart disease.2. From Dr. Dustan’s study we can infer that[A] a low-salt diet may be prescribed for some people.[B] the amount of salt intake has n othing to do with one’s blood pressure.[C] the reduction of salt intake can cure a hypertensive patient.[D] an extremely low-salt diet makes no difference to anyone.3. In the third paragraph, Dr. Laragh implies that[A] people should not be afraid of taking excessive salt.[B] doctors should not advise people to avoid salt.[C] an adequate to excessive salt intake is recommended for people in disease.[D] excessive salt intake has claimed some victims in the general population.4. The phrase "vocal . . . exponent" (line 2, para. 4) most probably refers to[A] eloquent doctor. [B] articulate opponent. [C] loud speaker. [D] strong advocate.5. What is the main message of this text?[A] That the salt scare is not justified.[B] That the cause of hypertension is now understood.[C] That the moderate use of salt is recommended.[D] That salt consumption is to be promoted.Part BIn the following article some paragraphs have been removed. For Questions 1 - 5, choose the most suitable paragraph from the list A - F to fit into each of the numbered gaps. There is one paragraph which does not fit in any of the gaps. Mark your answers on ANSWER SHEET 1.From her vantage point she watched the main doors swing open and the first arrivals pour in. Those who had been at the head of the line paused momentarily on entry, looked around curiously, then quickly moved forward as others behind pressed in. Within moments the central public area of the big branch bank was filled with a chattering, noisy crowd. The building, relatively quiet less than a minute earlier, had become a Babel. Edwina saw a tall heavyset black man wave some dollar bills and declare loudly, "I want to put my money in the bank"1It seemed as if the report about everyone having come to open an account had been accurate after all.Edwina could see the big man leaning back expansively, still holding his dollar bills.His voice cut across the noise of other conversations and she heard him proclaim, "I’m in no hurry. There’s something I’d like you to explain. "Two other desks were quickly manned by other clerks. With equal speed, long wide lines of people formed in front of them. Normally, three members of staff were ample to handle new account business, but obviously were inadequate now.Edwina could see Tottenhoe on the far side of the bank and called him on the intercom. She instructed, "Use more desks for new accounts and take all the staff you can spare to man them. "2Tottenhoe grumbled in reply, "You realize we can’t possibly process all these people today, and however many we do will tie us up completely. ""I’ve an idea," Edwina said, "that’s what someone has in mind. Just hurry the processing all you can. "3First, an application form called for details of residence, employment, social security, and family matters. A specimen signature was obtained. Then proof of identity was needed. After that, the new accounts clerk would take all documents to an officer of the bank for approval and initialing. Finally, a savings passbook was made out or a temporary checkbook issued. Therefore the most new accounts that any bank employee could open in an hour were five, so the three clerks presently working might handle? a total of ninety in one business day, if they kept going at top speed, which was unlikely.4Still the noise within the bank increased. It had become an uproar.A further problem was that the growing mass of arrivals in the central public area of the bank was preventing access to tellers’ counters by other customers. Edwina could see afew of them outside, regarding the milling scene with consternation. While she watched, several gave up and walked away. Inside the bank some of the newcomers were engaging tellers in conversation and the tellers,?having nothing else to do because of the melee, chatted back. Two assistant managers had gone to the central floor area and were trying to regulate the flood of people so as to clear some space at counters. They were having small success.5She decided it was time for her own intervention.Edwina left the platform and a railed-off staff area and, with difficulty, made her way through the milling crowd to the main front door.A. Yet she knew however much they hurried it would still take ten to fifteen minutes to open any single new account. It always did. The paperwork required that time.B. But still no hostility was evident. Everyone in the now jam-packed bank who was spoken to by members of the staff answered politely and with a smile. It seemed, Edwina thought, as if all who were here had been briefed to be on best behavior.C. A security guard directed him, "Over there for new accounts. " The guard pointed to a desk where a clerk?a young girl?sat waiting. She appeared nervous.The big man walked toward her, smiled reassuringly, and sat down.Immediately a press of others moved into a ragged line behind him, waiting for their turn.D. Even leaning close to the intercom, it was hard to hear above the noise.E. Even tripling the present complement of clerks would permit very few more than two hundred and fifty accounts to be opened in a day, yet already,?in the first few minutes of business, the bank was crammed with at least four hundred people,?with still more flooding in, and the line outside, which Edwina rose to check, appeared as long as ever.F. Obviously someone had alerted the press in advance, which explained the presence of the TV camera crew outside. Edwina wondered who had done it.Part CAnswer questions 1-10 by referring to the comments on 3 different cars in the following magazine article. Note: Answer each question by choosing A, B or C and mark it on ANSWER SHEET 1.SECTION IV: WritingYou have read an article in a magazine with the following statement in it. Write an article for the same magazine. You should use your own ideas, knowledge or experience to generate support for your argument and include an example. You should write about 250 words. Write your article on ANSWER SHEET 2."Economic development will inevitably generate industrial waste which in turn will cause pollution to the living environment. Economic prosperity and a clean environment can not coexist. You have to make a choice between the two. "To what extent do you agree with the statement?。

TapescriptFor those of you who are either already studying in the United States or plan to one day, it might be interesting to know something about the foreign student population in the United the academic year 1995/96 there was a total of approximately 344,000 foreign students studying in the United figure of 344,000 may seem like a very large number until you compare it with the total population of 241,000, foreign student population has been growing for a number of years and is still growing, but the rate of increase has dropped sharply during the the 1980s, the population grew quite example, between 1985 and 1990, the average yearly increase was %.However, the picture in the 1990s is quite rate of increase has declined quite fact, the rate of increase between 1994/95 and 1995/96 was only .5%, or one-half of one the overall rate of increase has dropped to only .5%, the number of students from some parts of the world is increasing while the number of students from other areas is example, during this same time period, that is between the academic years 94/95 and 95/96, there was a decrease in the number of students from the middle East, while the number of students from South and East Asia changes in the number of students coming from different parts of the world no doubt reflected changing economic and political ’m sure you are aware of many of these changes, and perhaps we can discuss them at our next today let’s confine our talk to first, a discussion of the origin of these students, or, in other words, where they come from; second, the kinds of studies they pursue; and, finally, the academic levels they are found we have a little time left, we might quicklydiscuss in which geographic areas most of them go to school.Let’s discuss the origins of the foreign student population in the United States for the academic year 1995/’s discuss it in order from those areas sending th e most students to those areas sending the fewest we look at the figures provided by the annual census of foreign students in the United States for the year 1995/96, we see that most of the foreign students studying in the United States during this year were from South and East is a rather large geographical area which includes such countries as China, Korea, Pakistan, India, Malaysia, and total number of students from this area, South and East Asia was 156, other words, roughly 2 out of every 5 foreign students come from South and East 24,000 of this total were from was close behind with just a little over 23,000 ?next largest number of students came from the middle number of students from the middle East came to about one-third the number from South and East fourth largest number came from South came Europe, Africa, North America, and ’s recapitulate what we’ve largest number of students studying in the United States during the academic year 1995/96 were from South and East Asia, followed by the middle East, South America, Europe, Africa, North America, and Oceania.What fields are these large numbers of foreign students studying in? It probably won’t surprise you to learn that the largest number are in the field of fact, % of the total number are studying and management is close behind, however, with a total of %.The third most popular field was mathematics and computer sciences with %.As you can see, engineering with %, business and management with %, and mathematics and computer sciences with % comprise about one half of the total number of foreign students.Let’s talk about which academic levels these students can be found students canbe found studying at all levels of higher you might expect, the greatest number of them are studying at the undergraduate level?approximately 158, second largest group study at the graduate level and that number is just under 122, rest study at junior colleges or in non-degree is at the graduate level that foreign students have the most foreign students comprise only % of the total population, they account for % of all the graduate students studying at me give you those percentages again so you can get a better feel for the overall students make up only of the total population, but they make up % of the total graduate student population.Well, I see that’s all the time we have ’ll have to leave discussions of the geographic areas these students study in until another time.Now you are going to hear the talk a second time.REPEAT THE TEXTYou now have 3 minutes to check your answers to Questions 1 - 10.That is the end of Part now have 5 minutes to transfer all your answers from your test booklet to ANSWER SHEET 1.That is the end of Listening Comprehension.SECTION II: Use of EnglishRead the following text and fill each of the numbered spaces with ONE suitable your answers on ANSWER SHEET 1.Children who grip their pens too close to the writing point are likely to be at a disadvantage in examinations,(1) _____ to the first serious investigation into the way in which writing technique can dramatically affect educational survey of 643 children and adults, aged from pre-school to 40-plus, also suggests(2) _____ pen-holding techniques have deteriorated sharply over one generation,with teachers now paying far(3) ______ attention to correct pen grip and handwriting Thomas, a learning support teacher(4) ______ findings have been published, was inspired to investigate this area(5) _______ she noticed that those pupils who had the most trouble with spelling(6) ______ had a poor pen could not establish a significant statistical link(7) ______ pen-holding style and accuracy in spelling, she(8) ______ find huge differences in technique between the young children and the mature adults, and a definite(9) ________ between near-point gripping and slow, illegible who(10) ______ their pens at the writing point also show other characteristics(11) ______ inhibit learning,(12) _______ as poor posture, leaning too(13) ______ to the desk, using four fingers to grip the pen(14) ______ than three, and clumsy positioning of the thumb (which can obscure(15) ______ is being believes that the(16) ______ between older and younger writers is(17) ________ too dramatic to be accounted for simply by the possibility that people get better at writing as they grow(18) attributes it to a failure to teach the most effective methods, pointing out that the differences betweenSECTION III: Reading ComprehensionPart ARead the following texts and answer the questions which accompany them by choosing A, B, C or your answers on ANSWER SHEET 1.Text 1In recent years, there has been a steady assault on salt from the doctors: salt is bad for you? regardless of your also got on board."There is a direct relationship," US congressman Neal Smith noted, "between the amount of sodium a person consumes and heart disease, circulatory disorders, stroke and even early death."Frightening, if true!

In fact, there is growing scientific evidence that other factors may be involved: deficiencies in calcium, potassium, perhaps magnesium;obesity (much more dangerous than sodium); genetic predisposition; stress."It is not your enemy," says ."Salt is the natural component of all human tissue, and the idea that you don’t need it is your doctor has proven that you have a salt-related health problem, there is no reason to give it up."to some doctors and politicians, the amount of salt consumed[A] exhibits as an aggravating factor to people in poor health.[B] cures diseases such as stroke and circulatory disorders.[C] correlates highly with some diseases.[D] is irrelevant to people suffering from heart disease.’s study we can infer that[A] a low-salt diet may be prescribed for some people.[B] the amount of salt intake has nothing to do with one’s blood pressure.[C] the reduction of salt intake can cure a hypertensive patient.[D] an extremely low-salt diet makes no difference to anyone.the third paragraph, implies that[A] people should not be afraid of taking excessive salt.[B] doctors should not advise people to avoid salt.[C] an adequate to excessive salt intake is recommended for people in disease.[D] excessive salt intake has claimed some victims in the general population.phrase "vocal ...exponent" (line 2, most probably refers to[A] eloquent doctor.[B] articulate opponent.[C] loud speaker.[D] strong advocate.is the main message of this text?[A] That the salt scare is not justified.[B] That the cause of hypertension is now understood.[C] That the moderate use of salt is recommended.[D] That salt consumption is to be promoted.Part BIn the following article some paragraphs have been Questions 1 - 5, choose the most suitable paragraph from the list A - F to fit into each of the numbered is oneparagraph which does not fit in any of the your answers on ANSWER SHEET 1.From her vantage point she watched the main doors swing open and the first arrivals pour who had been at the head of the line paused momentarily on entry, looked around curiously, then quickly moved forward as others behind pressed moments the central public area of the big branch bank was filled with a chattering, noisy building, relatively quiet less than a minute earlier, had become a saw a tall heavyset black man wave some dollar bills and declare loudly, "I want to put my money in the bank"1It seemed as if the report about everyone having come to open an account had been accurate after all.Edwina could see the big man leaning back expansively, still holding his dollar bills.His voice cut across the noise of other conversations and she heard him proclaim, "I’m in no ’s something I’d like you to explain."Two other desks were quickly manned by other equal speed, long wide lines of people formed in front of them.Normally, three members of staff were ample to handle new account business, but obviously were inadequate now.Edwina could see Tottenhoe on the far side of the bank and called him on the instructed, "Use more desks for new accounts and take all the staff you can spare to man them."2Tottenhoe grumbled in reply, "You realize we can’t possibly process all these people today, and however many we do will tie us up completely.""I’ve an idea," Edwina said, "that’s what someone has in hurry the processing all youcan."3First, an application form called for details of residence, employment, social security, and family specimen signature was proof of identity was that, the new accounts clerk would take all documents to an officer of the bank for approval and , a savings passbook was made out or a temporary checkbook the most new accounts that any bank employee could open in an hour were five, so the three clerks presently working might handle?

"Frightening,if true!But many doctors and medical researchers are now beginning to feel the salt scare has gone too far."All this hue and cry about eating salt is unnecessary,"Dr. Dustan insists."For most of us it probably doesn’t make much difference how much salt we eat."Dustan’s most recent short-term study of150people showed that those with normal blood pressure experienced no change at all when placed on an extremely low-salt diet,or later when salt was reintroduced.Of the hypertensive subjects,however,half of those on the low-salt diet did experience a drop in blood pressure,which returned to its previous level when salt was reintroduced."An adequate to somewhat excessive salt intake hasprobably saved many more lives than it has cost in the general population,"notes Dr.John ragh."So a recommendation that the whole population should avoid salt makes no sense."Medical experts agree that everyone should practice reasonable"moderation"in salt consumption.For the average person,a moderate amount might run from four to ten grams a day,or roughly1/2to1/3of a teaspoon.The equivalent of one to two grams of this salt allowance would come from the natural sodium in food.The rest would be added in processing,preparation or at the table.Those with kidney,liver or heart problems may have to limit dietary salt,if their doctor advises.But even the very vocal"low salt" exponent,Dr.Arthur Hull Hayes,Jr.admits that"we do not know whether increased sodium consumption causes hypertension."In fact,there is growing scientific evidence that other factors may be involved:deficiencies in calcium,potassium,perhaps magnesium;obesity(much more dangerous than sodium);genetic predisposition;stress. "It is not your enemy,"says ragh."Salt is the No.1natural component of all human tissue,and the idea that you don’t need it is.Unless your doctor has proven that you ga salt-related health problem,there is no reason to give it up."1.According to some doctors and politicians,the amount of salt consumed[A]exhibits as an aggravating factor to people in poor health.[B]cures diseases such as stroke and circulatory disorders.[C]correlates highly with some diseases.[D]is irrelevant to people suffering from heart disease.2.From Dr.Dustan’s study we can infer that[A]a low-salt diet may be prescribed for some people.[B]the amount of salt intake has n othing to do with one’s blood pressure.[C]the reduction of salt intake can cure a hypertensive patient.[D]an extremely low-salt diet makes no difference to anyone.3.In the third paragraph,ragh implies that[A]people should not be afraid of taking excessive salt.[B]doctors should not advise people to avoid salt.[C]an adequate to excessive salt intake is recommended for people in disease.[D]excessive salt intake has claimed some victims in the general population.4.The phrase"vocal...exponent"(line2,para.4)most probably refers to[A]eloquent doctor.[B]articulate opponent.[C]loud speaker.[D]strong advocate.5.What is the main message of this text?[A]That the salt scare is not justified.[B]That the cause of hypertension is now understood.[C]That the moderate use of salt is recommended.[D]That salt consumption is to be promoted.Part BIn the following article some paragraphs have been removed.For Questions1-5,choose the most suitable paragraph from the list A-F to fit into each of the numbered gaps.Thereis one paragraph which does not fit in any of the gaps.Mark your answers on ANSWER SHEET 1.From her vantage point she watched the main doors swing open and the first arrivals pour in.Those who had been at the head of the line paused momentarily on entry,looked around curiously,then quickly moved forward as others behind pressed in.Within moments the central public area of the big branch bank was filled with a chattering,noisy crowd.The building,relatively quiet less than a minute earlier,had become a Babel. Edwina saw a tall heavyset black man wave some dollar bills and declare loudly,"I want to put my money in the bank"1It seemed as if the report about everyone having come to open an account had been accurate after all.Edwina could see the big man leaning back expansively,still holding his dollar bills.His voice cut across the noise of other conversations and she heard him proclaim,"I’m in no hurry.There’s something I’d like you to explain."Two other desks were quickly manned by other clerks.With equal speed,long wide lines of people formed in front of them. Normally,three members of staff were ample to handle new account business,but obviously were inadequate now.Edwina could see Tottenhoe on the far side of the bank and called him on the intercom. She instructed, "Use more desks for new accounts and take all the staff you can spare to man them."2Tottenhoe grumbled in reply,"You realize we can’t possibly process all these people today, and however many we do will tie us up completely. ""I’ve an idea," Edwina said, "that’s what someone has in mind.Just hurry the processing all you can."3First,an application form called for details of residence,employment,social security,and family matters.A specimen signature was obtained.Then proof of identity was needed. After that,the new accounts clerk would take all documents to an officer of the bank for approval and initialing.Finally,a savings passbook was made out or a temporary checkbook issued.Therefore the most new accounts that any bank employee could open in an hour were five, so the three clerks presently working might handle? a total of ninety in one business day,if they kept going at top speed,which was unlikely.4Still the noise within the bank increased.It had become an uproar.A further problem was that the growing mass of arrivals in the central public area of the bank was preventing access to tellers’counters by other customers.Edwina could see afew of them outside,regarding the milling scene with consternation.While she watched, several gave up and walked away.Inside the bank some of the newcomers were engaging tellers in conversation and the tellers,?having nothing else to do because of the melee, chatted back.Two assistant managers had gone to the central floor area and were trying to regulate the flood of people so as to clear some space at counters.They were having small success.5She decided it was time for her own intervention.Edwina left the platform and a railed-off staff area and,with difficulty,made her way through the milling crowd to the main front door.A.Yet she knew however much they hurried it would still take ten to fifteen minutes to open any single new account.

Write an article for the same magazine.You should use your own ideas,knowledge or experience to generate support for your argument and include an example.You should write about250 words.Write your article on ANSWER SHEET2."Economic development will inevitably generate industrial waste which in turn will cause pollution to the living environment.Economic prosperity and a clean environment can not coexist.You have to make a choice between the two."To what extent do you agree with the statement?。

Could I have your mark sheets t please? Thankyou. My name is Jiao Tong, and this is my colleague Xu Fan. She is not going to ask you any questions, but she is just going to be listening to us. So your name is Wang Kai and you are Gao Feng? Thank you. First of all we ' d like to know something about you, so 11 mgoing to ask you some questions about yourselves. Wang Kai, where are you from?Wang： 11 m from Fushun. But 11 m now living and working in Shenyang.Interlocutor：How long did you live there?Wang： 25 years, until I came to the Northeast University in Shenyang to work.Interlocutor：What is it like living there?Wang：Well, very convenient I should say. Fushun is an industrial city. Not very big, but it is easy for you to go to work, to visit your friends or go shopping. The only thing I don11 like is its weather.Interlocutor：How does your hometown compare with Shenyang?Wang： To say it frankly, I like Shenyang better. It is big and modern. There are many more opportunities for education and jobs.Interlocutor：All right. Gao Feng, where are you from?Gao： 11 m from Shenyang. 11 ve been living here all my life.Interlocutor：How do you like Shenyang?Gao：It1s a nice place to live in, as the center of culture^ politics and economy of the province. The traffic is highly developed.Interlocutor：Are there anything you dislike?Gao： Yes. It1 s a bit crowded with over 7 million people. And it is very windy in spring. When there is a sandstorm, you can hardly move against the wind.Interlocutor：Is there any other place that you would like to live in very much?Gao： Yes. It is clean and quiet, with a very beautiful environment.Part B: Collaboration2^ Gao： 11 m not a rich man. But with the rising living standard and the healthier development of real estate, it seems quite possible that I will be able to buy a house soon. Well, for me, the most important thing is comfort. Is it big enough? Is it well-structured? Is it supported by good community service? What about you? Wang： I am a little different from you. I will first of all consider cost. Ifunusual evident develop it will I cannot afford it, it is meaningless however comfortable it is. And location —I want to buy a house near my office downtown. Isn 11 that important to you? Gao ： 1 am afraid not- If I can buy a house away from the town at a lower price, I will usethe money saved to buy a car and drive to work. It is a wonderful way to enjoy life. So. I think location is the least important.Wang ： But I think the least important thing is social status. I don 11 care whether I am living in u the noble community”. As a matter of fact, I don 11 want my child to rub shoulders with those children from the rich families. That 1 s why I think environment is also important to me.Gao ： You mean cultural environment or natural environment?Wang ： Cultural environment.Gao ： I see, like Mengzi 1 s mother, who moved three times just because of the neighbors who were not decent and well-educated. I think people living in the neighborhood are more and more diversified.Wang ： I cannot agree more. But 11 m sure there are places where there are more educated people.Part C:Presentation3、 Interlocutor ： All right. Now, Wang Kai would you like to begin first by telling us which topic you have selected and give the presentation, please?Wang ： 11 d love to. I would like to say something about smoking, that is, whether university students should be allowed to smoke- In my opinion, university students should not be allowed to smoke on campus.The reasons are as follows ： In the first place, university students are around 19 to 23 years old, still not fully mature either physically or psychologically- Smoking may affect the healthy growth of their young bodies and leave a lot of regrets. Secondly, smoking on campus pollutes the environment. Though all the universities have strict rules and non-smoking classrooms and offices, it is still not to smell the smoke or to spot cigarette butts. This is particularly in winter when windows are often closed- Finally, smoking may help bad manners sub-consciously- Once one becomes addicted to smoking, be difficult for him or her to choose the time and place to smoke. To those non-smoking students andteachers, it is extremely impolite and offensive. All in all, smoking can result in a lot of problems in universities. Therefore^ students should not be allowed to smoke.Interlocutor ： Thank you. Now, Gao Feng, would you like to ask some questions? Gao ： OK. 11 m not a smoker myself. But many friends of mine started smoking in universities. Do you think people can also benefit from smoking?Wang ： I used to smoke, though not heavily. I think the benefit is that it can help you relax. It is said that smoking can stimulate your thinking and bring up your creativity- 11 m afraid I have never had that sort of experience. Gao ： So when and why did you give up smoking?Wang ： 5 years ago. I gave up smoking because of my dauther. She started to learn to play the piano at that time. And my wife was very busy. My dauther disliked the smoky smell. She insisted that if I did not quit smoking, she would quit piano. Well, I thought it was better if I quitted in that case. Gao ： That is a good reason to quit.Interlocutor ： All right. Now, Gao Feng, would you like to begin by telling us thetopic you have chosen and give the presentation, please?Gao：OK. I 1 d like to talk about u How do you adapt yourself to a new environment ?,z With the rapid development of society, it is becoming increasingly important to adapt yourself to the new environment. To achieve this goal- 1need first of all to keep myself well informed. Because of the development of modem science and technology, a great deal of new information comes into being almost every day. If I stay away from books or mass media for a single day. I 111 find a lot of terms and events strange. Therefore, in order to avoid being out of date, it is necessary to read, surf on the Internet and communicate withpeople. A second way to adapt myself to the society is to master at least one foreign language, for example, English. After China has become a member nation of WTO, cross-cultural communication is getting more and more frequent. Not being able to use a foreign language can possibly hinder one from contacting people from other cultures. This is particularly important if he or she is involved in an international cooperation. The last thing to be done is to familiarize myself withmodem information technology. It is said that the inability to use a computer is more or less the same as being unable to read or write. With the help of computer,work will become more convenient, more efficient, and more enjoyable. Anyway, it is very important to adapt oneself to the new environment. Otherwise, you will be left far behind.Interlocutor：Thank you. Now, Wang Kai, would you like to ask some questions? Wang： OK. Do you think it necessary to change your present lifestyle to cater to the new environment?Gao： I don 11 think so. A wiser way is to integrate the changes with the existing way of life so that you will have a richer life.Wang： But what if you are a traditional person and do not welcome changes? Gao： It is really a problem. I have met a lot of people like this. Because of reluctance to accept new things, they find themselves uneasy in the changed, modern society. Life is spoiled by complaints sometimes.。
