Section A Directions: In Section A, you will hear ten short conversations between two speakers. At the end of each conversation, a question will be asked about what was said. The conversations and the questions will be spoken only once. After you hear a conversation and the question about it, read the four possible answers on your paper, and decide which one is the best answer to the question you have heard. 1. W: Here’s 15 dollars. Give me three tickets for tonight’s show please. M: Sure. Three tickets and here is $1.50 change. Q: How much does one ticket cost? 2. M: Hello. This is Tom Davis, I have an appointment with Mrs. Jones for 9 o’clock, but I’m afraid I’ll have to be about fifteen minutes late. W: That’s all right, Mr. Davis. She doesn’t have another appointment until 10 o’clock. Q: When will Mrs. Jones most probably meet Mr. Davis? 3. M: Do you have any books on running? W: Of course. Are you an experienced runner or a beginner? Q: Where does this conversation most likely take place? 4. M: I can’t stand living in this place anymore. W: Well, why don’t you move then? Q: What does the woman suggest the man do? 5. M: What do you think I should name this kitten I found? W: If I were you I’d find it a new home; you know the dorm rules. Q: What does the woman mean? 6. W: How long will it take this package to get to Shanghai? M: Well, it depends on how you want to send it. Q: What most probably is the man’s occupation? 7. W: If your tooth is hurting you so much, perhaps you should see your dentist right away. M: I don’t really want to, but I guess I don’t have much choice. Q: What will the man probably do next? 8. M: Do you think we should put an ad in the newspaper for the lost dog? W: By all means. Q: What does the woman say about placing an ad in the newspaper? 9. M: That was a difficult passage to translate. W: I’ll say. Even Frank had trouble with this one. Q: What does the woman imply about Frank? 10. M: Did you see the notice from the landlord? W: Yes, and I could hardly believe my eyes! Q: What does the woman say about the notice? Section B Directions: In Section B, you will hear two short passages, and you will be asked three questions on each of the passages. The passages will be read twice, but the questions will be spoken only once. When you hear a question, read the four possible answers on your paper and decide which one would be the best answer to the question you have heard. Questions 11 through 13 are based on the following passage. Next time you visit the Chimpanzees at your local zoo, be careful! It has been discovered that chimpanzees can plan attacks. A male chimpanzee in a Swedish zoo planned hundreds of stone-throwing attacks at visitors. Keepers at the zoo found that their 31-year-old chimp, Santino, was calmly collecting rocks each morning that he would later throw at zoo visitors in anger. This has proven that apes can plan ahead just like humans, a Swedish study said on March 9. What has surprised researchers most about Santino’s behavior is that he was collecting stones in the morning knowing that he would want to use them later when he was angry. He is the first animal researchers have recorded anticipating a future mental state. It is an ability that has been difficult to prove in animals, according to a scientist from Lund University in Sweden and author of the research. Questions: 11. What is the passage mainly about? 12. Where did the stone-throwing attacks from Santino happen? 13. Why are the researchers surprised at the news? Questions 14 through 16 are based on the following news. The US military has announced that 12,000 American and 4,000 British troops will leave Iraq by September. General David Perkins says that will reduce US combat power from 14 brigades to 12 brigades. He also said that the US is turning over more facilities to the Iraqi military as part of the pullout. There are currently about 135,000 US troops in Iraq. Star hurdler Liu Xiang, 25, has returned to Shanghai to train and plan his comeback, after spending three months in the US recovering from foot surgery. When Liu returns to competing will depend on how he recovers. China’s coastal cities are handing out tourism coupons worth tens of millions of dollars. The local governments hope to urge people to spend during the economic slowdown. The coupons can be used for package tours at travel agencies or as tickets to certain scenic spots. Some economists believe coupons are effective tools to boost demand during a slow economy. But some economists said coupons can only be effective for a short time. Questions: 14. How many US troops are there in Iraq now? 15. What’s the purpose of the use of tourism coupons issued by some coastal cities in China? 16. Which of the statement is NOT true according to the news? Section C Directions: In Section C, you will hear two longer conversations. The conversations will be read twice. After you hear each conversation, you are required to fill in the numbered blanks with the information you have heard. Write your answers on your answer sheet. Blanks 17 through 20 are based on the following conversation. W: Uh, what does it say I should do next? M: Excuse me. Do you need some help? W: Well-yeah-I guess so. I’m trying to get to the university, but I’m afraid I can’t make heads or tails of this ticket machine. M: Just push the green button that says “University and put in two dollars and seventy-five cents. W: Okay. Like this? M: Yes, that’ right. The train you want will leave from platform 2 at 9:15, which is half an hour from now. W: Thank you. Oh, and could you tell me how often the trains come? M: They come every fifty minutes in the evening. W: Okay. And do you know which station I should get off at? M: University Avenue; that’s five stops from here. W: Okay, I think I’ve got it. Thanks again. M: Sure. Good luck. Blanks 21 through 24 are based on the following conversation. W: Oh, I’m on my way home from work. M: I didn’t know you had a job. W: Yeah, I work part-time at a supermarket. M: What do you do there? W: I work in the produce section, wrapping fresh fruit and vegetables. I also put goods on shelves. Sometimes when it really gets busy, I work at the check-out counter. Have you got a job, Phil? M: Yeah, I do garden work for people. You know, cutting grass, watering, raking leaves, pulling weeds, things like that. W: I’d like to do that. It must be nice to work outdoors. M: Sometimes it is, except when it rains or snows or gets too hot or too cold or- W: Ha, ha, I guess every job has its drawbacks. There are times when I get pretty tired of carrying things around at my job. But a job is a job. You’ve got to earn money for school. M: Me too. Tuition sure is high, isn’t it? Well, I’d better get going. I’ve got to plant some trees for my neighbors this afternoon. W: Well, don’t work too hard. Take it easy! 查看更多
