Lung cancer is the leading cause of death due to cancer in Canada, representing 30% of the cancer deaths in males and 25% of the cancer deaths in females.Smoking is the single most important cause of lung cancer. A comprehensive approach to tobacco control has been adopted all over the country. Measures such as educating the public about the harmful effects of smoking have contributed to significant decreases in smoking over the past several decades.The annual results from the official departments show that between February and December 2007, 19% of the Canadian population aged 15 years and older were current smokers. Slightly more males than females were smoking. But the difference between the male and female smoking rate has narrowed from 6% in 2005 to only 2% in 2007.14% of Canadian households reported at least one person who smoked inside the home every day or almost every day. Among the remaining homes where someone did not smoke every day or almost every day, 12% of homes still allowed smoking inside. It was also reported that 7% of children under the age of 12 were regularly exposed to second-hand smoke at home. There are no differences between 2007 and 2006 in these respects.All this shows we have a long battle to fight. World No Tobacco Day is held every year on May 31 to encourage countries and governments to work towards strict regulation of tobacco products. The theme of 2008, "Tobacco-Free Youth", aims to educate the general public and particularly the young people about the dangers of smoking.6.____ is the leading cause of death due to cancer in Canada.A) Liver cancerB) Lung cancerC) Stomach cancerD) Bone cancerScript: ____ is the leading cause of death due to cancer in Canada.正确答案：B学生答案：B得分：2分7.What percent of the Canadian population aged 15 years and older were current smokers?A) 15%.B) 17%.C) 19%.D) 21%.Script: What percent of the Canadian population aged 15 years and older were current smokers? 正确答案：C学生答案：C得分：2分8.In 2005, _____ were smokers.A) 6% more men than womenB) 6% more women than menC) 2% more men than womenD) 2% more women than menScript: In 2005, _____ were smokers.正确答案：A学生答案：A得分：2分9.What was TRUE about the Canadian households where no one smoked every day?A) No kids were allowed to smoke.B) Some allowed smoking inside.C) All family members smoked.D) People lived longer.Script: What was TRUE about the Canadian households where no one smoked every day?正确答案：B学生答案：D得分：0分What is the theme of World No Tobacco Day 2008?A) Tobacco and Health.B) A World without Tobacco.C) Tobacco and Poverty.D) Tobacco-Free Youth.Script: What is the theme of World No Tobacco Day 2008?正确答案：D学生答案：D得分：2分Passage TwoQuestions 11 to 15 are based on the passage you have just heard.Script:Medical research has contributed much to our understanding of depression. However, scientists do not know the exact cause of depressive illness. Probably no single cause gives rise to the illness.In the past, doctors believed that depression was the result of thoughts or emotions that were troubling for a person. More recently, experts realize that several factors can work together to make a person become depressed. The three most important of these are biological, genetic, and environmental factors.Biological causes are due to changes in the chemistry of the brain, such as changes in the levels of important chemicals.Genetic causes are the result of what you get from your parents. If one or both of your parents have experienced depression, it can be passed on to you. Scientists believe genetic factors play a role in some depressions. Recent genetic research also finds that if one twin suffers from depression, the other twin has a 70 percent chance of also having the illness.Environmental factors, also called emotional factors, result from stressful emotional situations, such as a lack of loving parents or the death of a parent during childhood. To make it even more complicated, depression can also occur as a result of the three factors joined together.Depression can also develop due to a physical illness, or a reaction to some medicine that you are taking. In these cases, when the cause is successfully treated, the depression will end. Researchers now are continuing their work to better understand how genes and environment can work together, and what exactly is got from our parents.Today scientists _____ the exact cause of depression.A) can tellB) do not knowC) do not agree with each other onD) pay less attention toScript: Today scientists _____ the exact cause of depression.正确答案：B学生答案：B得分：2分12.What is not a factor for depressive illness?A) Biological factors.B) Emotional factors.C) Genetic factors.D) Personal factors.Script: What is not a factor for depressive illness?正确答案：D学生答案：D得分：2分13.Research finds that if one of the twins has depression, the other has a _____ chance of also having the illness.A) 50%B) 60%C) 70%D) 80%Script: Research finds that if one of the twins has depression, the other has a _____ chance of also having the illness.正确答案：C学生答案：A得分：0分14._____ is an example of stressful emotional situation.A) Losing one's parent during childhoodB) Being a poor student at schoolC) Suffering from the death of one's dogD) Being looked down upon by colleaguesScript: _____ is an example of stressful emotional situation.正确答案：A学生答案：D得分：0分15.Depression due to _____ will end once the cause is treated.A) emotional problemsB) personal reasonsC) physical illnessD) lack of energyScript: Depression due to _____ will end once the cause is treated.正确答案：C学生答案：C得分：2分Part II Oral Tasks ( 3 minutes )Section ADirections: In this section, you will hear several conversations.

❖UNIT 1Section One Houses in the Future❖Well, I think houses in the future will probably be (1) quite small but I should think they'll be (2) well-insulated so that you don't need so much (3) heating and (4) cooling as you do now, so perhaps very economical (5) to run. Perhaps they will use (6) solar heating, although I don't know, in this country, perhaps we (7) won't be able to do that so much. Yes, I think they'll be full of (8) electronic gadgets: things like very advanced televisions, videos, perhaps videos which take up ... the screen (9) takes up the whole wall. I should think. Yes, you'll have things like (10) garage doors which open automatically when you (11) drive up, perhaps electronic (12) sensors which will (13) recognize you when you, when you come to the front door even. Perhaps (14) architects and designers will be a bit more (15) imaginative about how houses are designed and perhaps with the (16) shortage of space people will think of putting gardens (17) on the roof and, and maybe rooms can be (18) expanded and, and (19) contracted* depending on what you use them for, so perhaps there'll be a bit more (20) flexibility about that.❖Part 2❖A: Tuesday two fifteen.

No hard evidence exists to support that tale, but in any case, by the sixth Awards Presentation in 1934, a Hollywood columnist used the name in his column.❖ 3. Walt Disney was honored with one full-size and seven miniature statuettes on behalf of his animated feature Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs.❖ 4. If the statuettes don't meet strict quality control standards, they are immediately cut in half and melted down.❖ 5.The large boxes are shipped to the Academy offices via air express, with no identifiable markings.❖The Oscar statuette, designed by MGM's* chief art director Cedric Gibbons, depicts* a knight holding a crusader's* sword, standing on a reel of film with five spokes, signifying the original branches of the Academy: Actors, Writers, Directors, Producers, and Technicians.❖Born in 1928, years would pass before the Academy Award of Merit was officially named "Oscar". Industry insiders and members of the press called the award "the Academy statuette", "the golden trophy" or "the statue of merit". The entertainment trade paper,Weekly Variety, even attempted to popularize "the iron man". The term never stuck.❖ A popular story has been that an Academy librarian and eventual executive director, Margaret Herrick, thought the statuette resembled her uncle Oscar and said so, and that as a result the Academy staff began referring to it as Oscar.❖No hard evidence exists to support that tale, but in any case, by the sixth Awards Presentation in 1934, Hollywood columnist Sidney Skolsky used the name in his column in reference to Katharine Hepburn's first Best Actress win. The Academy itself didn't use the nickname officially until 1939.❖Since its conception, the Oscar statuette has met exacting uniform standards - with a few notable exceptions. In the 1930s, juvenile players received miniature replicas* of the statuette; a ventriloquist* Edgar Bergen was presented with a wooden statuette with a moveable mouth; and Walt Disney was honored with one full-size and seven miniature statuettes on behalf of his animated feature Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs. Between 1942 and 1944, in support of the war effort, Oscars were made of plaster. After the War, winners turned in the temporary awards for golden Oscar statuettes.❖The traditional Oscar statuette, however, hasn't changed since the 1940s, when the base was made higher. In 1945, the base was changed from marble to metal and in 1949, Academy Award statuettes began to be numbered, starting with No. 501.❖Approximately 50 Oscars are made each year in Chicago by the manufacturer, R. S. Owens. If they don't meet strict quality control standards, the statuettes are immediately cut in half and melted down.❖Each award is individually packed into a Styrofoam* container slightly larger than a shoebox.❖Eight of these are then packed into a larger cardboard box, and the large boxes are shipped to the Academy offices in Beverly Hills via air express, with no identifiable markings.❖On March 10, 2000, 55 Academy Awards mysteriously vanished en route from the Windy City* to the City of Angels. Nine days later, 52 of stolen statuettes were discovered next to a Dumpster* in the Koreatown section of Los Angeles by Willie Fulgear, who was later invited by the Academy to attend the Oscar 2000 ceremonies as a special guest.❖For eight decades, the Oscars have survived war, weathered earthquakes, and even managed to escape unscathed* from common thieves. Since 1995, however, R. S. Owens has repaired more than 160 statuettes. "Maybe somebody used chemicals on them to polish them and the chemicals rubbed right through the lacquer* and into the gold," explains the company president. "Or maybe people stored them someplace where they corroded." Although he stresses that the statuette is made to endure, Siegel offers this sage advice to all Oscar winners: "If it gets dusty, simply wipe it with a soft dry cloth."❖ A. Pre-listening Question❖Every January, the attention of the entertainment community and of film fans around the world turns to the upcoming Academy Awards, the highest honor in filmmaking. The annual presentation of the Oscars has become the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences' most famous activity. The Oscar Statuette is a knight holding a crusader's sword, standing on a reel of film with five spokes.❖ B.. Sentence Dictation❖Directions: Listening to some sentences and write them down.

The Security Council gave Iraq this last opportunity to disarm or face serious consequences, a euphemism* for possible war. The United States says it will make sure Iraq disarms, one way or another.❖But Mr. Blix* emphasizes that his inspectors will not determine the course of events in the region.

The Nile River was a kind friend but occasionally a hard taskmaster of the people who lived along its banks.❖ 2. In due course of time, one man who grew more powerful than most of his neighbors became their King.❖ 3. Provided he was not obliged to pay more taxes to his King than he thought just, he accepted the rule of pharaoh as accepted the rule of Mighty Osiris.❖ 4. It was different however when a foreign invader came and robbed him of his possessions.❖ 5. Egypt regained a semblance of independence when one of Alexander's generals set himself up as king of a new Egyptian state.❖The Nile River* was a kind friend but occasionally it was a hard taskmaster*. It taught the people who lived along its banks the noble art of "teamwork". They depended upon each other to build their irrigation trenches and keep their dikes in repair. In this way they learned how to get along with their neighbors and their mutual-benefit-association quite easily developed into an organized state.❖Then one man grew more powerful than most of his neighbors and he became the leader of the community and their commander-in-chief when the envious neighbors of western Asia invaded the prosperous valley. In due course of time he became their King and ruled all the land from the Mediterranean to the mountains of the west.❖But these political adventures of the old pharaohs* (the word meant "the Man who lived in the Big House") rarely interested the patient and toiling peasant of the grain fields. Provided he was not obliged to pay more taxes to his King than he thought lust, he accepted the rule of pharaoh as accepted the rule of Mighty Osiris *.❖It was different however when a foreign invader came and robbed him of his possessions.❖After twenty centuries of independent life, a savage Arab tribe of shepherds, called the Hyksos*, attacked Egypt and for five hundred years they were the masters of the valley of the Nile. They were highly unpopular and great hate was also felt for the Hebrews who came to the land of Goshen* to find a shelter after their long wandering through the desert and who helped the foreign usurper* by acting as his tax-gatherers and his civil servants.❖But shortly after the year 1700 B.C., the people of Thebes* began a revolution and after a long struggle the Hyksos were driven out of the country and Egypt was free once more.❖ A thousand years later, when Assyria* conquered all of western Asia, Egypt became part of the empire of Sardanapalus*. In the seventh century B.C., it became once more an independent state❖ A. Pre-listening Question❖,It is the Great Pyramid of Giza probably. The great pyramid is believed to have been built over a 20-year period. The site was first prepared, and blocks of stone were transported and placed. An outer casing (which disappeared over the years) was then used to smooth the surface. Although it is not known how the blocks were put in place, several theories have been proposed. One theory involves the construction of a straight or spiral ramp that was raised as the construction proceeded. This ramp, coated with mud and water, eased the displacement of the blocks which were pushed (or pulled) into place. A second theory suggests that the blocks were placed using long levers with a short angled foot.❖ B.. Sentence Dictation❖ 1. B..

One of the first men to produce designs for aircraft wasLeonardo da Vinci, an Italian artist who lived in the fifteenth century. However, it was not until the eighteenth century that people began to fly, or perhaps it would be better to say float, across the countryside in balloons. The first hot-air balloon was made in April 1783 by the Montgolfier brothers in France.❖In the following years many flights were made by balloon. Some of the flights were for pleasure and others were for delivering mail and for military purposes, such as observation and even bombing. However, in the late nineteenth century, airships superseded balloons as a form of transport.❖Airships came after balloons. The first powered and manned flight was made by a Frenchman, Giffard, in September 1852. His airship, powered by steam, traveled twenty-seven kilometers from Paris to Trappes at a speed of eight kilometers per hour. However the days of the airship were numbered as the aero plane became increasingly safe and popular.❖Exercise❖Directions: Listen to the passage and write down the gist and the key words that help you decide.❖ 1.
