Uint3II. Basic Listening Practice1.ScriptM: Amy, sit down, we need to talk. Y our mother and I are going to separate.W: What! Are you crazy? You can’t do that! What will my friends say? I just want to have a normal family.Q: What is the girl saying?2.ScriptM: Good evening, Mrs. Jones. The manager sent you these roses and his best wishes to you both for a happy anniversary.W:Thank you. We like the room and the service here, and we especially appreciate the manager’s consideration/Q: What can we learn from the conversation?3. ScriptW: While I’m scrambling the eggs, could you put the flour into the bowl?M: Y ou bet, darling. I’ll also turn the oven on so that it gets warmed up.Q: Where does this conversation probable take place?4. ScriptW: I have a very important meeting tonight, and I’m afraid I can’t miss it.M: But this evening is the parent s’meeting at school, and I was expecting you’d come to it. OK, I’ll phone Dad, maybe he and his girlfriend will come.Q: What can be inferred from the conversation?5. ScriptW1: So you’re still single? If you’d listen to me and used the Internet, you’d have a husband by now.W2: I did use the Internet. I posted an ad that read “Husband Wanted”. There were dozens of e-mail responses. But they all said pretty much the same thing: You can have mine.Q: What can we infer from the conversation?Keys: 1.C 2.A3.B 4.C 5.DIII. Listening InT ask1: Reasons for a DivorceScriptW: I’m divorcing my husband.M: How long have you been married?W: Thirteen years.M: Do you have children?W:Y es, and I have to protect them from any more harm from my husband’s irresponsibilityM: So, what are your grounds for divorce?W: Well, first of all, he keeps changing jobs. We’ve had moved four times in thirteen years!M: And, you believe that will be good grounds for divorce?W: I do have a right to stability for my children and myself, don’t I?M: Aren’t they his children, too?W: But my husband isn’t fulfilling his duties!M: Is he paying the bills?W: Well, yes, but we just live around the poverty line. Our kids are being teased by other kids at school because we can’t dress them in good clothes! We have to live in a small department and drive an old car!M: Does the car run?W: Yes, but it looks OLD!M: Do you yell at him and call him names?W: Well, he yells at me!M: So, those are the reasons to not honor your husband. Are you going to give him joint custody in this divorce?W: No, just visitation rights.M: Why?W: Because the law permits me to.M: And, what about the financial demands of this divorce?W: I’m demanding half of all we have, which isn’t much, and large support payments. After thirteen years marriage, the woman wants to divorce her husband, claiming he is irresponsible. When asked for the specific grounds for divorce, she gives these reasons: First, he keeps changing jobs, and the family has had to move four times in thirteen years, but she wants stability for her children and herself. Second, although he is paying the bills, they just live around the poverty line. Her children are being teased by other children for not dressing good clothes. Also, they had to live in a small apartment and drive an old car, though it still runs. Worse still, the husband yells ather, though she admits she also yell at him and calls him names. As for the divorce arrangements, the woman will give the husband only visitation rights instead of joint custody. Moreover, the woman will demand half of all they have and large support payments.T ask 2: What four-letter words?ScriptDorothy was the only child of her family, born when her parents were mid-aged. They spoiled her badly. At the age of 33 she still lived at home. Her mother and father treat her like a princess. She seemed perfectly content with that situation, so her friends were surprised when she announced she would soon get married. People who knew her well said the marriage wouldn’t last long. But for the present, she and her new husband approached happy.As soon as the newly couple returned from their honeymoon, the bride called her mother.“How does everything go?” her mother asked.“Oh, Mom,”she began, “the honeymoon was lovely! So romantic! We had a wonderful time. But on our back, Bob started using terrible language. Stuff I’d never heard before. Really awful four-letter words. Y ou’ve got to come get me and take me home. Please, Mom!” the new bride sobbed over the telephone.“But, honey,” the mother asked, “What four-letter words?”“I can’t tell you, Mom. They’re too awful! Come get me, please!”“Darling, you must tell me what has upset you so much. Tell me what four-letter words he used.”Still sobbing, the bride said, “Mom, words like dust, wash, iron, and cook.”Keys: FTFFTT ask3: A Woman Who Chose Not to RemarryScriptAfter 17 years of marriage, my husband left me for my best friend, Monica. What I had feared most became reality: I became the single parent of two young children. My daughter grew increasingly unhappy. Seven-year-old Joanna had anxiety attacks when ever she was left alone for more than a few minutes. Five-year-old Sophie would vomit every meal. Under the psychological pressure, I thought about remarriage. Myfriends arranged dinner with single men and invited me to parties to meet the latest “someone special”.But later I changed my mind. A colleague of mine said, “Second marriages usually end in divorce, and children are destroyed by it.”There is some truth in his words. Research published in 2004 showed that children in blended families were no more emotionally healthy than those in single-parent families.Not long ago, my now-teenage daughter and I went to lunch at our favorite Italian restaurant. While eating, we talked about a friend of ours who was divorcing her second husband. We were worried about how the break would harm her three childre n, two of whom were struggling to get free of drugs. Joanna put down her fork and looked at me. “Mom, I’m glad you didn’t remarry,”she said. “If you had divorced again, I might have tried drugs or even consider suicide.” At that moment, I realized, once again, that singleness was right choice for me.1.What was the speaker most afraid of?2.Which of the following is NOT true?3.What did the speaker’s colleague say?4.Which of the following is true?5.If the speaker had divorced again, what might her daughter, Joanna, have done?

I’m having a hectic time working on this report for tomorrow’s meeting.Amy: Well, you’re always pretty busy, and it’s been more five years, almost six, since we were married.Bill:Y es, time has gone so fast, but they’ve been good years.Amy: I know, but I want to have a baby—I want us to have a baby.Bill:I know you do. But remember, we said we’d wait until we could afford it. Amy: But five years is a long time to wait. Anyway, it’s long enough.Bill:I’m this close to getting a promotion.Amy:What has that got to do with it? We could wait forever if we wait for the “perfect” moment. Soon we’ll be too old to enjoying having a baby.Bill:Y ou know,you have a good point. This report can wait. I’ll do it tomorrow morning.

We’ll be busier in future.A: There is something in what you said. Four years is a long time to wait. But I really like my job. What’s more, I’m very close to getting promotion.B: But a baby borne by a woman in her 30s may be physically and intellectually less healthy. If we wanted to hold onto your job, we would wait forever. Soon we’ll be too old to enjoy a baby.A: Y ou really have a point. I’ll choose the baby over the job.B: Good, I’ll try harder to make both ends meetMODEL2 So many people in the United States get divorced! ScriptKim: Hi Amy.Amy: Hi! Look at this headline, Kim.Kim: Wow! So many people in the United States get divorced!Amy: But this is not uncommon in west. In some places, the divorce rate can be as high as 50 percent.Kim: It seems strange to me that Westerners fall head heels in love quickly,if not at first sight; but they also leave each other quickly.Amy:Is it the same in your country?Kim: I don’t think so. In my country, some marriages break up, but most couples stay together.Amy:Do people get married young?Kim: Not really. Not many people get married before the age of 20.Amy:Hmm.

Never thought I was good enough for you.Amy: Well, you’re not…But seriously, Mom’s not so sad.

It’s inconvenient for old people.A: Then we can invite four of them to a restaurant near them.B: Good, idea. On the next morning we can visit both our parents.A: And don’t forget to bring gifts.V. Let’s T alkScriptIf you want me to tell you why I remarried, that’s my story.Remarried is the last thing I’d consider for two years after my divorce. I had heard about the high rate of remarriage failure. More importantly, I wondered how remarrying would affect my 10-year-old son. My heart ached when I saw my son draw a picture of himself, my ex-wife and me holding hands, with sadness on our faces. Since my parents have married and divorce eight times altogether, I hope my son would not have to go through the same pain I had experienced. As a result, my primary focus after divorce was my relationship with my son John, not finding a wife. As time went by, my son gradually grew up, and he became of my loneliness and anxiety. One day he asked me to consider dating. The first timer he said this, I ignored him. The second time he brought it up, I reconsidered my reservations about dating. I began to date Maria. As our relationship developed over the following year, I was concerned about my son would actually respond to her. At first, John’s affection for Maria was lukewarm. For instance, he would hug her, but the act seemed mechanical. But after several times, he warmed up to her. Seeing that the time was ripe, I asked Maria to marry me. She accepted, so our family of two smoothly became a family of three. Thinking back, I believe my remarrying was the right choice.Some single-parents are still besitant about remarrying. Now that you’ve heard my story, I hope you won’t hesitate and let golden opportunities slip through your fingers.DebateSAMPLEA: On the whole I don’t support remarriage. Too many remarriages have turned out to be unsuccessful and end in divorce.B:If you say many remarriages have failed, that means other remarriages have survived, or even bloomed. We should not only look at the dark of the issue.A:But ther e’re too many factors contribute to the failure of a second marriage. For example, as you become older, you may find it increasingly difficult to adjust to a different pattern of life with a new mate. Once there’s a conflict neither is willingto give in.B: There’re conflicts everywhere, but you should not neglect that an adult has psychological and physical needs. Without a companion, one may feel lonely and anxious.A: In a new family the husband tends to compare his new wife’s weak point with his ex-wife’s strong point. And the wife does the same.B: I wish you’d seen the film The Sound of Music. The governess Maria blended so smoothly into the Captain’s family.A:It is not easy for children to accept the new mother or father. It is simply impossible for them to forget their birth-mother’s loving care and the happy moments in their childhood.B: But how happy are the Captain’s seven children with their adopted mother Maria! If the new mother shows genuine care for the kids, they will gradually warm to her. On the other hand, many children in a single-parent family are under psychological pressure and suffer from anxiety attack. So, the single life is not the right choice. VI. Further Listening and SpeakingT ask1: Early MarriageScriptAt the age of 12, Lisa has been married for three years to a young man she met just after finishing secondary school. He treated her well. She almost died during the birth of their first child, born a year after their marriage. The second child, born 18 months later, was also a girl. Lately she and her husband quarrel frequently. She wants to go to vocational school to learn skills to add to the family income, but his mother insists she stay home and produce a son.This example is by no means exceptional. Early marriage is common in many parts of the world. Early marriage leads to early motherhood. In some developing countries, 20 percent or over half of the women give birth to their first child before the age of 18.Expectations from parents, in-laws and society are to produce a child as soon as possible. Many young wives feel pressure to bear son. This typically results in early and frequent pregnancies.In developing countries, more than half a million women die every year from causes related to pregnancy. There are four important reasons for these deaths. Birth are either “too soon, too close, too many, or to late”. According to statistics, it is young women who most die during pregnancy.1.At what age did Lisa give birth to her first child?2.What does Lisa want?3.Why do women in some developing countries have babies early?4.What are the reasons women die from childbirth?5.What is the main idea of the passage?Keys: 1.B 2.D3.A 4.D 5.CT ask 2: Nuclear Family Living PatternsScriptA nuclear family is typical in high-industrialized societies. Beginning in the early 20th century, the two-parent family known as the nuclear family was the predominant American family type. Generally children live with their parents until they go away to a college or university, or until they acquir e their own jobs and move into their own apartment or home.In the early mid-20th century, the family typically was the sole wage earner, and the mother was the children’s principle care giver. Today, often both parents hold jobs. Dual-earner families are the predominant type for families with children in the United States.Increasingly, one of the parents has a non-standard shift; that is, a shift that does not start in the morning and end in later afternoon. In these families, one of the parents manages the children while the other works.Prior to school, adequate day care of children is necessary for dual-earner families. In recent years, many private companies and home-based day care centers have sprung up fulfill this need. Increasingly, a company’s arrangement of day care as well as government assistance to parents requiring day care is occurring.T ask3: They are coming for Christmas,ScriptA man in Phoenix calls his son in New Y ork the day before Christmas and says, “I hate to ruin your day, but I have to tell you that your mom and I are divorcing, Forty-five years of misery is enough..”“Dad, what are you talking about?” the son screams.“We can’t stand the sight of each other any longer,”the father says. “We’re sick of each other, and I’m sick of talking about this, so you call your sister in Chicago and tell her.”Frantic, the son calls his sister, who explodes on the phone.“Oh, heck, they’re getting divorced,”she shouts. “I’ll take care of this.”Losing no time, she call her father and screams at him, “Y ou are not getting divorced. Don’t do a single thing until I get there. I’m calling my brother back, and we’ll both be there tomorrow. Until then, don’t do anything! DO YOU HEAR ME?”Then she quickly hangs up.The old man hangs up his phone and heaves a sigh of relief. He turns to his wife and says merrily, “Okay, they are coming back for Christmas and paying their own way.”For Reference:1. He and the boy’s mother are divorcing.2. Forty-five years of misery is enough. They can’t stand the sight of each other any longer. They’re sick of each other.3. He gets frantic and calls his sister.4. They will come back home and stop the parents from divorcing.5. He is happy, for his son and daughter will come back for Christmas and pave their own way.News ReportPrince More Precious Than the DiamondScriptPeople have long known the saying ’s best friend.” But this may be changing. There’s a new stone market, tanzanite, and it is giving diamonds some serious competition.Tanzanite was one of a number of gems discovered in East Africa in the 1960s. The new colors and varieties changed the gem market. But the real gem among these stones was tanzanite, discovered in 1967 in Tanzania. The stone was named after its country of origin by New Y ork’s Tiffany and Co. which introduced it to the world. It draws one’s attention quickly with its color—blue, purple or bronze, depending on the direction it is viewed from.More important for its value, though, is its rarity. Tanzanite has been found in only one small area, near Mount Kilimanjaro, in Tanzania. And its supply will probably befully mined in the next two decades.As one mining official puts it, “It should never have really occurred in the first place. It did occur. And only this one deposit on this entire planet that is known…makes it more than a thousand times rarer than diamonds. And certainly within the next 15 to 20 years, there will be no more tanzanite to be mined.”The current value of the tanzanite market, at U.S. $10 billion, is equivalent to that of diamonds. And so another saying “Diamonds are forever”may lose some of its meaning.。

3 As a young girl during the Nazi occupation of her native Holland, Audrey Hepburn was aware of the brutality, death, and destruction of war. She was hungry and malnourished, as her family was bankrupted as a result of the invasion. Audrey's father abandoned the family, and two of her uncles were taken captive and killed. Audrey was grabbed off the street by Nazis and placed in line to be sent to a work camp. When the guards glanced away she darted off, barely escaping, and huddled in a cold, foul basement full of rats.作为一名在纳粹占领下的祖国荷兰生活的小女孩，奥黛丽·赫本清楚战争所带来的野蛮、死亡和破坏。

Pepys and his wife had asked some friends to dinner on Sunday, September 2nd, 1666. The servants (女仆) were up very late on the Saturday evening, getting everything ready for the next day, and while they were busy they saw the glow of a fire start in the sky. By 3 o’clock on the Sunday morning, the gl ow had become so bright that one of the servants, Jane, woke her master to see it.Pepys went to the window to watch it. It seemed fairly far away, so after a time he went back to bed. When he got up in the morning, it looked as though the fire was dying down, though he could still see some flames. So he set to work to tidy (整理) his room and put his things back where he wanted them after the servants had cleaned everything. While he was doing this, Jane came in to say that she had heard that the fire was a bad one: three hundred houses had been burned down in the night and the fire was still burning. Pepys went out to see for himself. He went to the Tower of London and climbed up on a high part of the building so that he could see what was happening. From there, Pepys could see that it was, indeed, a bad fire and that even the houses on London Bridge were burning. Someone told him that the fire had started in a baker’s house in Pudding Lane, and then the flames had quickly spread to the other houses in the narrow lane. So began the Great Fire of London, a fire that lasted nearly five days, destroyed most of the old city and ended, so it is said, at Pie Corner.1.The servants were up very late because __________.A. they were chattingB. they were having a partyC. they were preparing for a dinnerD. they were watching a fire2.Pepys went back to bed because __________.A. he was not interested in chatting about a fireB. he did not think the fire was anything specialC. the fire was far awayD. the fire had died down3.When Pepys was tidying his room and things, Jane came inand told him that __________.A. the fire was dying downB. the fire had been put outC. the fire was a bad oneD. no flame could be seen4.The fire started ____________.A. on London BridgeB. in a baker's houseC. because the lane was too narrow to allow people to cometo helpD. because people could not get enough water to put it out5.Pie Corner was ______________.A. the site of the Tower of LondonB. the site of the Great Fire of LondonC. the place where the fire endedD. the place where Pepys livedQuestions 6 to 10 are based on the same passage or dialog.In the United States 84 colleges now accept just women. Most of them were established in the 19th century; they were designed to offer women the education they could not receive anywhere else. At that time major universities and colleges accepted only men. In the past 20 years many young women have chosen to study at colleges that accept both men and women. As a result somewomen's colleges decided to accept men students too. Others, however, refused to change. Now these schools are popular again. The president of Trinity College in Washington, D.C. said that by the end of the 1980s women began to recognize that studying at the same school with men did not mean women were having an equal chance to learn. The president of Smith College in Massachusetts says a women's college permits women to choose classes and activities freely. For example, she says that in a women's college a higher percentage of students studies mathematics than in a college with both men and women. Educational experts say men students in the United States usually speak in class more than women students do. In a women's college, women feel freer to say what they think. Women's schools also bring out leadership capabilities in many women. Women are represented everywhere. For example, at a women's college every governing office is held by a woman. Recent studies reportedly show that this leadership continues after college. The studies show American women who went to women's colleges are more likely to hold successful jobs later in life.6.Women's college were established to ________________.A. give women the same right of education that men enjoyB. make changes to traditional educational systemC. defy men s privilege in the societyD. train women in particular fields7.Studying at the same school with men does not mean______________.A. women can do the same thing as menB. that women are given the same chance as menC. women are allowed more latitudes to develop themselvesD. the present educational system does not allow otherchoices8.According to the passage, in women's schools_______________.A. women are much freer than if they study at the sameschool with menB. women could do anything they wantC. they teach things peculiar to womenD. men are hated widely9.Which one of the following statements is not true aboutwomen's college?A.

TranslationInk and wash painting, one of the unique traditional art forms of China, is representative of Chinese painting. It began around the time of the Tang Dynasty, and then prospered in the Song and Y uan dynasties. With a history of over one thousand years, it ahs experienced constant development, improvement and perfection. The tools and materials used to create ink and wash painting, i.e. brushes, rice paper, and ink, are characteristic of Chinese culture and closely related to the features of the paintings. For example, the mixing of water and ink creates different shades of dryness, wetness, thickness and thinness. The integration and infiltration of water, ink, and rice paper enables such paintings to convey rich images, and hence to achieve unique aesthetic effects. Ink and wash painting holds a high status in the history of Chinese painting, and it is even regarded as the criterion to evaluate the artistic level of Oriental paintings.Unit Four Let’s go3.

He was not a good student, and had he not been from a famous family, he probably would have been removed from the school for deviating from the rules. Thankfully, he did finish at Harrow and his errors there did not preclude him from going on to the university. He eventually had a premier army career whereby he was later elected prime minister. He achieved fame for his wit, wisdom, civic duty, and abundant courage in his refusal to surrender during the miserable dark days of World War II. His amazing determination helped motivate his entire nation and was an inspiration worldwide.Toward the end of his period as prime minister, he was invited to address the patriotic young boys at his old school, Harrow. The headmaster said, "Young gentlemen, the greatest speaker of our time, will be here in a few days to address you, and you should obey whatever sound advice he may give you." The great day arrived. Sir Winston stood up, all five feet, five inches and 107 kilos of him, and gave this short, clear-cut speech: "Young men, never give up. Never give up! Never give up! Never, never, never, never!"英国的伟大首相温斯顿·丘吉尔爵士，小时候在哈罗公学上学。

(C)UNDERSTANDING PASSAGESPassage 1 High Schools in the United StatesEducation has a very honored place in American society and, with some exceptions among the wealthy, parents of every kind of background and of all income groups send their children to the local high schools. It is an article of faith in the American Dream that a good education will enable a child to achieve a higher standard of living than his or her parents.High schools are public schools in the proper sense of the word 'public', notto be confused with English 'public schools', which are private and expensive.People have a high opinion of American high school. This is because the high schools take their responsibilities very seriously -- and not only in the classroom. They have guidance advisers to whom children can go privately if they have any special problems, especially about their future careers. Parents are encouraged to sharein the school life of their children. In some lower grade classes they actually go into the class during a lesson and help the teachers with plays and class reading, and most schools have highly successful Parent-Teacher Organizations. Teachers and parents get together and discuss their children's problems.For example, John has made no progress at all during the lastterm, because, the teacher suspects, he is in love with a gift in the same class who has rejected him, while Gail seems to be just lazy.Between them, parents and the teacher then work out a plan of action.Questions 1 to 5 are based on the passage you have just heard.1. Which of the following statements is true according to the passage?2. Why do people have a high opinion of American high schools?3. Whom do students turn to for help when they have personal problems?4. What are the parents encouraged to do?5. What do teachers and parents get together for?Passage 2 Self-imageDo you have a self-image that can help you succeed or one that can make you fail? Let's discover what self-image is all about. Get a picture in your mind of two empty chairs. In these two chairs let's picture two visitors. In the first chair let's seat a young man who is deaf. In the second chair let's seat a young boy who was born with part of one foot missing.The young man we picked for the first chair was a musician. He was a great artist. Hecomposed many great songs. When he was still a young man he lost his hearing. Itis generally believed that a person cannot be a professional musician or compose music without heating, but t his man had a special driving force that enabled him to write some of the most beautiful music ever written. This man was Beethoven.The visitor in the second chair was a young boy who wasborn with part of one foot missing. This young boy loved sports, especially football. As a young boy and later as a young man he had always dreamed of playing football with a major league football team. He had a thirst that could not be quenched. Finally, he made it into the New Orleans Saints football team and one day on the football field in New Orleans he kicked the longest field goal in football history.His name is Tom Dempsey.If you try to find the special strength that turns an ordinary person into a hero it only exists in the heart or soul of man. It is called a positive self-image.A positive self-image is a great belief in yourself and your ideas.Questions 6 to 10 are based on the passage you have just heard.6. Why does the speaker talk about two empty chairs at the beginning of the passage?7. What can be inferred about self-image?8. What is generally believed about a deaf person?9. What was the most exciting thing that Tom Dempsey did?10. What is the main idea of this passage?Passage 3 Sports in American High SchoolsAmerican learn sports as part of their education. They learn two or more ball games, such as football or basketball. At high school, they choose groups of boys or girls to make teams.They choose those who are best at that sport. These teams compete against teams from other schools. In many schools students learn wrestling, running, tennis, golf and swimming. They have teams for some of these sports, too. The games between schools are often very exciting. Other students, the ones not on the team,love to watch them. They let everyone know this by shouting and cheering when their team plays well.There is a special club of girls and boys, mostly girls, who jump up and down and shout for their football team. They call themselves cheerleaders, because they lead everyone in shouts and cheers. They wear clothes of a special color -- the color of their school's team. The football players wear that color, too. Each school has a team color and a team name. Cheerleaders call out the team name in their cheers. They practice many hours to learn the special jumping and cheering moves. Cheerleading is almost a sport itself.Every classroom has an American flag in it. From elementary to high school, students start each day by standing up and showing respect to the flag. They put their hands over their hearts and say the "Pledge of Allegiance". This is a promise to the country, which was written by people who came to the US over 200 years ago. By standing and showing respect to the flag people think about the United States and its freedoms.Q uestions 11 to 15 are based on the passage you have just heard.11. According to the passage, which sport is not learned at high schools?12. Why are the games between schools exciting?13. What can be learned about cheerleaders?14. How do students start each day in elementary and high school?15. When people stand showing respect to the American flag, what do they usually think about?Passage 4 Setting GoalsWhy is setting goals important? Because goals can help youdo, be, and experience everything you want in life. Instead of just letting life happen to you, goals allow you to make your life happen.Successful and happy people have a vision of how their life should be and they set lots of goals, both short-term and long-range, to help them reach their vision. By setting goals you are taking control of your life. It's like having a map to show you where you want to go.Winners in life set goals and follow through on them. Winners decide what they want in life and then get there by making plans and setting goals. Unsuccessful people just let life happen by accident. Goals aren't difficult to set -- and they aren't difficult to reach. It's up to you to find out what your goals, ideals and visions really are. You are the one who must decide what to go after and in what direction to aim your life.Research tells us that when we write a goal down we are more likely to achieve it. Written goals can be reviewed regularly, and have more power. Like an agreement with yourself, they are harder to neglect or forget. Also when you write your goals in a particular fashion you are able to stimulate your subconscious to be continuously aware of situations that will further your goal.Questions 16 to 20 are based on the passage you have just heard.16. What does the significance of setting goals lie in?17. In what way do successful people differ from unsuccessful ones?18. According to the speaker, what is the most important thing in the whole process of realizing one's goals?19. What are people suggested to do if they want to realize their goals without failure?20. What is the speaker mainly discussing?Passage 5 Tests, Marks and Report CardsDo you think that tests are only for students? You're wrong. The tests that students take als o test their teachers and schools.In the United States, students take many tests each year. Teachers use tests to see how well pupils are learning at school. If students pass these tests, they go on to the next grade where the work is harder. In this way, it is the students who are tested.But these tests also show if teachers are doing their job. Teachers have to give their pupils a lot of information in each grade. If they don't, their students may not learn enough. So the tests are also for teachers.There is another special test that pupils take each year in all the schools across the country.It is a different test for each grade, but the same for all students in the same grade. It shows what they have learned that year. It shows which schools are teaching well. So tests are also for testing schools.Most American schools give the following marks: A = 91-100 per cent, B = 81-90 per cent,C = 71-80 per cent, D = 65-70 per cent, E = 50-64 per cent, and F = below 50 per cent. In high schools it is possible to take some classes without marks. Then the student gets a "P" for "pass"and an "F" for "fail".Teachers keep lists of students' test and homework marks. They give students marks for how well they work. Then they list the students' marks on their report card. Students get report cards four times a year. One copy is sent to the parents and the school keeps a copy.Seventy-one percent of American students graduate from high school. And 40 percent of high school students go on to college.Questions 21 to 25 are based on the passage you have just heard.21. Why do teachers use tests?22. Why are the tests for students also for teachers?23. What does the special test taken by pupils in all the schools across the country show?24. How many times do students get report cards a year?25. About what percentage of high school students go on to college?Passage 6Once upon a time there was a wise man that used to go to the ocean to do his writing. He had a habit of walking on the beach before he began his work.One day he was walking along the shore. As he looked down on the beach, he saw a human figure moving like a dancer. He smiled to himself at the thought of someone who would dance on the beach. So he began to walk faster to catch up.As he got closer, he saw that it was a young man and the young man wasn't dancing, but instead he was reaching down to the shore, picking up something and very gently throwing it into the ocean.As he got closer he called out, "Good morning! What are you doing?"The young man paused, looked up and replied, "Throwing starfish in the ocean." "I guess I should have asked, why are you throwing starfish in the ocean?""The sun is up and the tide is going out. And if I don't throw them in they'll die.""But, young man, don't you realize that there are miles and miles of beach and starfish all along it. You can't possibly make adifference !"The young man listened politely. Then he bent down, picked another starfish and threw it into the sea, past the breaking waves and said, "It made a difference for that one."There is something very special in each and every one of us. We have all been gifted with the ability to make a difference. And if we can become aware of that gift, we will gain through the strength of our visions the power to shape the future. We must each find our starfish. And if we throw our starfish wisely and well, the world will become better.Questions 26 to 30 are based on the passage you have just heard.26. What would the wise man do before he began writing?27. What was the young man doing on the beach?28. Which of the following statements is true according to the passage?29. What does the speaker mean by saying "There is something very special in each and every one of us"?30. What can be inferred from the passage?Key:Passage 1: 1. (D) 2. (B) 3. (A) 4. (C) 5.

新视野大学英语3读写教程(第二版)Unit3SectionA课文和翻译各位读友大家好，此文档由网络收集而来，欢迎您下载，谢谢篇一：新视野大学英语读写教程第二版第三册课文翻译Unit 1 sectionA我哥哥吉米出生时遇上难产，因为缺氧导致大脑受损。
两年后，我出生了。
从此以后，我的生活便围绕我哥哥转。
伴随我成长的，是“到外面去玩，把你哥哥也带上。
”不带上他，我是哪里也去不了的。
因此，我怂恿邻居的孩子到我家来，尽情地玩孩子们玩的游戏。
我母亲教吉米学习日常自理，比如刷牙或系皮带什么的。
我父亲宅心仁厚，他的耐心和理解使一家人心贴着心。
我则负责外面的事，找到那些欺负我哥哥的孩子们的父母，告他们的状，为我哥哥讨回公道。
父亲和吉米形影不离。
他们一道吃早饭，平时每天早上一道开车去海军航运中心，他们都在那里工作，吉米在那搬卸标有彩色代号的箱子。
晚饭后，他们一道交谈，玩游戏，直到深夜。
他们甚至用口哨吹相同的曲调。
所以，父亲1991年因心脏病去世时，吉米几乎崩溃了，尽管他尽量不表现出来。
他就是不能相信父亲去世这一事实。
通常，他是一个令人愉快的人，现在却一言不发，无论说多少话都不能透过他木然的脸部表情了解他的心事。
我雇了一个人和他住在一起，开车送他去上班。
然而，不管我怎么努力地维持原状，吉米还是认为他熟悉的世界已经消失了。
有一天，我问他：“你是不是想念爸爸？”他的嘴唇颤抖了几下，然后问我：“你怎么看，玛格丽特？他是我最好的朋友。
” 接着，我俩都流下了眼泪。
六个月后，母亲因肺癌去世，剩下我一人来照顾吉米。
吉米不能马上适应去上班时没有父亲陪着，因此搬来纽约和我一起住了一段时间。
我走到哪里他就跟到哪里，他好像适应得很好。
但吉米依然想住在我父母的房子里，继续干他原来的工作。
我答应把他送回去。
此事最后做成了。
如今，他在那里生活了11年，在许多人的照料下，同时依靠自己生活得有声有色。
他已成了邻里间不可或缺的人物。
如果你有邮件要收，或有狗要遛，他就是你所要的人。

31 Unit 3 Part Ⅰ Listening Comprehension A．答案与详解 Section A 1. 【答案与详解】D。场景判断题。听到make a reservation时几个选项都有可能入选，但eating out是排除干扰项的关键信息，只要听清这个短语，即知道答案是D。另外overseas students也有助于答案的确定。 2. 【答案与详解】A。行为活动题。对话中并未直接提到要邀请女士吃晚饭，但由“I wonder if you can drop by. I’d like you to meet them”，以及女士的回答“Sure, I’d love to”这些信息足以推断出答案是A。选项C是强干扰项，若听到I’ve heard，即可排除。 3. 【答案与详解】D。事实状况题。男士说“he didn’t speak slowly enough”，由此可以很快得出答案。B是强干扰项，但首先complicated是女士对教授presentation的观点，其次，男士说教授说得太快了，根本记不下来笔记。 4. 【答案与详解】D。事实状况题。本题的关键在于听懂男士的答语“it was a real bargain”(真便宜)，D是其同义转述。B是一个强干扰项，意思是“公寓提供一些旧家具”，与“I bought some used furniture”不符。 5. 【答案与详解】A。行为活动题。从男士的第一句话即可知谈话的主题。二人的谈话只提到了男人的妻子Mary对这份工作的见解，始终未提男士的观点，所以运用排除法，选项B、C、D均不符合对话内容，属过度推断。 6. 【答案与详解】C。行为活动题。女士说“There’s no hurry”，然后解释了考试分数至少在8周之后通知，由此可推知现在男士应该耐心等待。选项A、B、D均为错误理解。 7. 【答案与详解】A。事实状况题。女士说“I didn’t read it straight through the way you read a novel”，由此可排除B、D。她又说“I just covered a few chapters that interested me most.”，可见女士是挑着看这本书的，选项A是其同义转述。至于读得快慢，对话未提，不能妄下论断，可排除C。选项D中的“finish at a stretch”意为“一口气读完”，而对话中说只读了感兴趣的文章，故排除。 8. 【答案与详解】B。事实状况题。男士说自己出了车祸，但接着就说“only some minor injuries, though”，可知他只是轻微受伤；A、C显然不可能；D项毫无根据。对话中luck seemed to go against me 是“不走运”的意思。 9. 【答案与详解】C。行为活动题。文中一开始就提到了taxi，但是taxi在等他们，不是他们在等taxi。可迅速排除选项A。接着女士提到了“take some food with us”，即可排除B选项。显然他们正要去乘火车，选项C是正确推断。选项D纯属臆断。 10.【答案与详解】C。观点态度题。本题中as hard as和even worse是关键词，只要听清即知正确答案。A与原文相反；B没有根据，二人并未对学生之间的差别进行比较；D属过度推断。本题的关键在于对英语中几种表示“比较”的结构的理解。 Section B Passage One 【短文大意】本文主要介绍了“我”和父亲的一次劳动经历及此事对“我”所产生的重要影响。 《新视野大学英语综合技能训练》 Teachers’ Book Unit 3, Book 3
32 “我”对父亲分派的任务感到骄傲与兴奋，经过一天疲惫不堪的努力，自我感觉不错，可父亲指出毛病让“我”重做。故事实际上就是告诉人们做事要认真。 11.【答案与详解】B。细节题。文中明确提到了“I felt proud and excited”，是一个小男孩在被父亲委以重任时的心情。选项D有一定的干扰性，但程度过重，不符合小男孩的年龄和心情，故B为答案。 12.【答案与详解】C。细节题。从他父亲的话“Cut that section again”即知正确答案为C，其他三项均与事实不符。 13.【答案与详解】C。主旨题。原文的故事实际上就是告诉人们做事要认真。说话人在后面也说到“Today I stress the importance of doing a job right the first time.”。选项A尽管没有原则性的错误，但不是本文真正要说的主旨。B、D与原文无关。 Passage Two 【短文大意】本文主要介绍了工作重压对作者生活产生的负面影响以及生活方式转变后带来的快乐。作者本人曾经从事压力很大的广告工作，由于行业竞争激烈，没有时间感受生活，去做生活中真正有意义的事情，导致酗酒和吸烟，妻子也离开他。由于生活方式转变，作者享受到了生活的真正乐趣所在。 14.【答案与详解】C。细节题。原文并未直接提及说话人过去从事的工作，但在自述中他提到了“The advertising world is very competitive.”，说明他是在广告界工作，选项中只有C与广告有关，A是他现在从事的工作；B、D与原文毫无联系。 15.【答案与详解】A。细节题。“I used to have a really stressful job”这一句就点出了说话人过去工作的压力，后面又谈到pressure of the job导致他酗酒、抽烟，甚至妻子离开他，进一步说明了工作压力对他的负面影响。C和D可以用来描述他现在的生活；B则与文章无关。 16.【答案与详解】B。细节题。在谈了很多过去的生活后，“The crisis came when my wife left me.”点出他的生活出现了危机，妻子抱怨总见不到他，他没有给家庭生活留出时间，故B为答案。其他三项都不是使说话人改变生活方式的真正原因。 Passage Three 【短文大意】本文主要介绍了剑桥大学的一些基本情况。剑桥大学没有校园，拥有31个自主管理的独立学院，学院可以在录取分数线上自主招生。剑桥大学有1万多名本科生，3,500名研究生，教学与科研同等重要，20世纪以来，有60多名剑桥学生获诺贝尔奖。 17.【答案与详解】D。细节题。原文一开头就说“no one could point them in any one direction be- cause there is no campus”，然后又说整个university 是由31个自主管理的colleges组成的，并且“it has lecture halls, libraries, laboratories, museums and offices throughout the city”，由此可知，事实上剑桥大学的特点就是没有一个圈定的校园，而是分散在城市的各个地方。 18.【答案与详解】B。细节题。只要听到“individual colleges choose their own students”即可选出正确答案。根据后面的“Examinations are set and degrees are awarded by the university”可排除A和C；D也可从“Lectures, laboratory and practical work are organized by the university”这些信息加以排除。 19.【答案与详解】B。细节题。原文在说到剑桥的图书馆时说“it has more than 60 specialized sub- ject libraries as well as the university library.”，说明选项B是正确的。A、C选项可能是事实，但未在原文中提及，不选；D选项中的they 和问题中的the libraries指的是the specialized 《新视野大学英语综合技能训练》 Teachers’ Book Unit 3, Book 3
33 subject libraries，而原文说的是“the university library…is entitled to a copy of every book published in Britain.”，应排除。 20.【答案与详解】B。细节题。最后一句话“it was not until 1948 that they were awarded degrees”是答案的依据。A未提及；C与原文所说About 40% of them are women不符；原文所提到的时间只是allowed women to take the university exams的时间，至于是否能够公平对待无从论断，排除D。 B.
