听力原文:AGENT: Good morning. Ace Accommodation; how can I help you?

SYLVIA: Good morning. I'd like to organize some short stay accommodation on the Gold Coast, please.

AGENT: Certainly. Who am I speaking to?

SYLVIA: Miss Mackinlay. Sylvia Mackinlay.

AGENT: Could you spell your family name for me please?

SYLVIA: It's M-A-C-K-I-N-L-A-Y.

Listen carefully and answer questions 1 to 5.

AGENT: Good morning. Ace Accommodation; how can I help you?

SYLVIA: Good morning. I'd like to organize some short stay accommodation on the Gold Coast, please.

AGENT: Certainly. Who am I speaking to?

SYLVIA: Miss Mackinlay. Sylvia Mackinlay.

AGENT: Could you spell your family name for me please?

SYLVIA: It's M-A-C-K-I-N-L-A-Y.

AGENT: Thank you. And your first name is Sylvia?

SYLVIA: Yes.

AGENT: Is that with an ' i' or a ' y' ?

SYLVIA: A 'y'—the old fashioned way. That's S-Y-L-V-I-A.

AGENT: Thank you, Miss Mackinlay. Now, just for our records, can you tell me what country you live in?

SYLVIA: Of course—it's England actually.

AGENF: I thought so. Now, when are you coming?

SYLVIA: Well, at the moment we're planning on arriving on July 26th.

AGENT: Ooh, the 25th, that's the last day of the public holiday and it might be difficult to find something available on that date.

SYLVIA: No, we're coming on the 26th of July.

AGENT: Oh, well that's fine then. We'll have lots of good places vacant by then although you wouldn't be able to move in until late afternoon because our cleaning crew will need time to get everything ready for you.

SYLVIA: That suits us—our flight won't get in until early evening anyway.

AGENT: How many of you will there be?

SYLVIA: Just my sister and myself.

AGENT: And how long do you intend to stay for?

SYLVIA: Oh, only a couple of weeks, we'd like to stay longer but we'll have to get back to work.

AGENT: So, you're not coming on business then?

SYLVIA: No, it's just a holiday. Why? What difference does that make?

AGENT: Oh, you'd be surprised. Business people have different needs you know, wireless internet, even fax machines and photocopiers.

SYLVIA: No, we won't need any of that stuff—we'll be coming to relax, and get away from all that kind of thing.

Now listen and answer questions 6 to 10.

AGENT: Good. Now, what exactly are you looking for? A house, a duplex or an apartment?

SYLVIA: What's a duplex?

AGENT: Oh, that's what you might call a townhouse or a unit--you know, two houses semi-detached on the same property.

SYLVIA: Oh, I see. I think an apartment will suit us just fine.

AGENT: And how many bedrooms? Two?

SYLVIA: One or two—it depends on the size. My sister and I don't mind sharing if it's a decent size bedroom with two beds.

AGENT: Well, that makes it easier.

AGENT: And car parking? Will you require a lock-up garage? They're a little harder to find with an apartment.

SYLVIA: We'll have a hire car and as far as I know there are no regulations concerning car parking. I think as long as it's not parked on the street and it's secure there shouldn't be any problems.

AGENT: Okay. Now, I'm assuming you want something by the beach?

SYLVIA: Yes, that's the idea. We want to enjoy the surf, sand and sunshine.

AGENT: Okay, but before we settle on an area and discuss your price range, I'll need to know about other necessities.

SYLVIA: What do you mean?

AGENT: Well, for example, do you want to be close to a shopping mall or the casino or the fun parks? Or do you want to be in a complex with or near a swimming pool?

SYLVIA: No, none of that really matters to us but we'd like to have reasonable access to the motorway so that we can drive up to Brisbane to visit friends there.

AGENT: Well, there are quite a few lovely small towns to choose from. There's Main Beach which is north of Surfers' Paradise or Mermaid Waters which is a bit further south or Palm Beach which is quite a bit further south?

SYLVIA: Mermaid Waters sounds delightful. Is it close to the motorway?

AGENT: Well, not really, the M 1 is actually closest to Palm Beach and prices are likely to be more reasonable there too.

SYLVIA: That's settled then, Palm Beach it is.

AGENT: Now, if you'll just give me your email address, I can send you information about the town and lots of photos.

SYLVIA: Well, my email is S-M-A-C 13 at hotmail dot com.

AGENT: And, one final thing, how much are you looking to spend per week on accommodation? Do you want something at the luxury end of the market—you know, newly redecorated, great views, all the mod cons ...

SYLVIA: Not necessarily. Could we get something clean, comfortable and reasonable for $1200 a week?

AGENT: Could you stretch that to 1500 a week? I've got a property in mind that you'll absolutely love but you'd have to go to 1500—1200 wouldn't cover it.

SYLVIA: Alright, then. But that's our top limit.

AGENT: Good. I'll get on to this straight away and there should be something in your inbox shortly.

听力原文: On June 17, 1744, the officials from Maryland and Virginia held a talk with the Indians of the Six Nations. The Indians were invited to send boys to William and Mary College. In a letter the next day they refused the offer as follows:

We know that you have a high opinion of the kind of learning taught in your colleges, and that the costs of living of our young men, while with you, would be very expensive to you. We are convinced that you mean to do us good by your proposal; and we thank you heartily. But you must know that different nations have different ways of looking at things, and you will therefore not be offended if our ideas of this kind of education happen not to be the same as yours. We have had some experience of it. Several of our young people were formerly brought up at the colleges of the northern provinces; they were taught all your sciences; but when they came back to us they were bad runners, ignorant of every means of living in the woods, they were totally good for nothing.

We are, however, not the less obliged by your kind offer, though we refuse to accept it, and to show our grateful sense of it. If the gentlemen of Virginia will send us a dozen of their sons, we will take care of their education, teach them in all we know and make men of them.

(33)

A.The educational values of the Indians.

B.The colleges of the northern provinces.

C.The talk between the Indians and the officials.

D.The problems of the Americans in the mid-eighteenth century.

听力原文:A house is the most expensive thing most people will ever buy. Very few people ha

听力原文: A house is the most expensive thing most people will ever buy. Very few people have enough money of their own to buy a home, so they have to borrow money from a bank. Borrowing money from a bank to buy a house is called taking a mortgage. The hank usually lends money or gives a mortgage for 25 years. This means that the person who borrows has 25 years to pay back the money. The bank lends this money with interest, and the borrower makes equal monthly payments to the hank until he has paid the mortgage. Houses are so expensive that many people nowadays have to borrow as much as $50,000. In other words, they will have a $50,000 mortgage.

How can you get a mortgage? When you find a house you like, you go to a bank, sometimes it is necessary to go to a few banks, before applying for a mortgage at once. The bank will investigate your financial history and decide if they think you axe a good risk. They will want to know what kind of job you have. In addition, the banks will require a down payment. Depending on which state you live in, the bank may require as much as 30% of the price of the house as a down payment. The bank will then lend you the rest of the money to buy the house. Many people are never able to buy a house because they cannot save enough money for the down payment.

(30)

A.It means to rent a house for 25 years.

B.It means to buy an old house at a low price.

C.It means to borrow money from a bank to buy a house.

D.It means to borrow money from a friend to buy a house.

听力原文:In public speaking, the watch word is preparation. Most of us tend to put things

听力原文: In public speaking, the watch word is preparation. Most of us tend to put things off, at least occasionally. It's so easy to put things off especially those things we do not look forward to doing. So if the speaking engagement is several weeks off, we may feel that we still have plenty of time. But as the day draws closer, we begin to panic. Don't let this happen to you. Start preparing as soon as you're given or accept the speaking assignment. You have much to do and to do it right will take time. How much better your speech will be and how much better you'll feel if you have taken the time to do it right! When you are prepared, you have gathered the needed data, determined what is appropriate to the listener's understanding and acceptance levels, organized the ideas so they flow logically, selected examples and other supports for your ideas and made them interesting to your listeners, developed a great opening that you know will capture the attention of even the daydreamers in your audience checked out the room where you'll be speaking and requested any feasible changes you wish in the set-up of the room If you are prepared, you are confident that you can best convey your message to your listeners. If you waited until a few days before your presentation to begin to prepare, or worse, yet, the day before, no doubt you'll be anxious and with good reason. And now there is not enough time to engage in more than a superficial attempt. Both you and the audience will feel uncomfortable, like retirement planning. It is never too early to start preparing for your presentation. So, start preparing right away.

(33)

A.Confidence.

B.Preparation.

C.Informativeness.

D.Select appropriate materials.

听力原文:Edgar Poe, an American writer, was born in 1809. His parents were actors. Edgar w

听力原文: Edgar Poe, an American writer, was born in 1809. His parents were actors. Edgar was a baby when his father left the family. He was two years old when his mother died. He was taken into the home of a wealthy business man named John Allen. He then received his new name, Edgar Allen Poe. As a young man, Poe attended the University of Virginia. He was a good student, but he liked to drink alcohol and play card games for money. As an unskilled game player, he often lost money. Since he couldn't pay his gambling losses, he left the university and began working for magazines. He worked hard, yet he was not well paid, or well known. At the age of 27, he got married. For a time it seemed that Poe would find happiness, but his wife was sick for most of their marriage, and died in 1847.

Through all his crises, Poe produced many stories and poems which appeared in different publications, yet he didn't become famous until 1845, when his poem, The Raven, was published. There is a question, however, about Poe's importance in American Literature. Some critics say Poe was one of America's best writers, and even had a great influence on many French writers. But others disagree. They my Poe's work is difficult to understand and most of his writing de scribes very unpleasant situations and events. Edgar Allen Poe died in 1849 when he was 40 years old. It is said that he was found dead after days of heavy drinking.

(33)

A.His father caught a serious disease.

B.His mother passed away.

C.His mother left him to marry a rich businessman.

D.His father took to drinking.

听力原文:M: Mary, (19)you want to talk about your second essay, right?W: Yes, Dr. Richards

听力原文:M: Mary, (19)you want to talk about your second essay, right?

W: Yes, Dr. Richardson. I just need your comments on what I'm planning to do. (19)I'm doing the essay on the differences between TV news programs at different hours of the day.

M: How many times slots are you planning to consider?

W: Well, I think I'd look at all of them. That'd be five slots. The breakfast news, midmorning news. midday news. mid-afternoon news and evening news.

M: That's rather a lot. And you'd have too much to consider. (20)Why don't you just do two. Say the midmorning and then evening news. That should give you two contrasting approaches with two main audience compositions.

W: OK, just two then.

M: Yes, I think that would be much better. Now how many actual programs do you plan to work with?

W: What do you think of analyzing a whole week's news programs?

M: Well, that depends on how much of each program, if you concentrate on one particular type of news item, say the sports news or local items, it might be alright.

W: Yes. that would be a good idea. (21)I won't make a decision before I collect a sample of programs over a whole week. I'll look at them and see what items appear throughout the week.

M: Yes, that's a sound approach. (22)Now we’re getting close to the deadline. Can you finish it in time?

W: Yes, I think so. I've completed the reading and I know what my basic approach is, so it's really just a matter of pulling it all together now.

M: Fine, Mary. I'll look forward to reading it.

(23)

A.To discuss the second essay.

B.To get the comments on TV news.

C.To plan to join TV news programs.

D.To tell the difference of TV news.

听力原文:W: Hi, Mike.

M: Hi. I'm surprised to see you on the city bus. Why not drive your car?

W: (23)I've been thinking about the environment lately. If we all use public transportation when we could, the air will be much cleaner.

M: Right. But the bus isn't exactly pollution free.

W: True. But they'll be running a lot cleaner soon, We were just talking about that in my environmental engineering class.

M: What's the city going to do? Install pollution filters of some sort on their buses?

W: They could, but those filters make the engines work harder and really cut down on fuel efficiency. Instead they found a way to make their engines more efficient.

M: How?

W: Well, (24)there is a material called the coniine oxide. It's a really good insulator. And a thick coat of it gets sprayed on the certain part of the engine.

M: An insulator?

W: Yes. (25)It reflects back the heat of burning fuel. So the fuel will burn much hotter and burn up more completely.

M: So a lot less unburned fuel comes out to pollute the air, right?

W: Yeah, and the bus will need less fuel. So with the savings on fuel cost, they say this will all pay for itself in just six months.

M: Sounds like people should all go out and get this stuff to spray their car engines.

W: Well, not really that easy. To melt the materials before you can spray a coat of it on the engine parts, you first have to heat it over 10,000 degrees. It's not something we are able to do ourselves.

(20)

A.Something is wrong with her car.

B.The cost of the fuel is high.

C.It's cheap to take bus.

D.She thinks public transportation is environmental friendly.
