Keytomodeltest9专四模拟题答案Key to model test nineBritish WomenBritish women, in common with women in most Western countries, have been fighting for sexual equality with men for much of the last century. Their achievements have been considerable.First and foremost, discrimination against anyone on the grounds of their sex alone is illegal. For women, this means they are entitled to be given equal respect and status with men in all areas of life. Many British women expect to pursue careers for intellectual, financial and social reasons. They also expect equal pay with men for the same job. When they have family responsibilities, some women, depending on financial and other circumstances, choose not to work; others choose to take time off work while their children are young. In still other families, the father will give up work while the mother continues to pursue her career. In all thesecases, men and women are generally expected to share the domestic responsibilities at home with their partners.PART II1-5 CBBDC6-10 DBADB11-15 BACCD16-20 AADDA21-25 ABDAA26-30 BDDDCPART III31-35 CDBCA36-40 BAACA41-45 ABCAA46-50 BABCDPART IV51-55 CAAAB56-60 BAABA61-65 BDBCA66-70 AABBB71-75 BAAAB76-80 CAACBPART V81-85 BDADD86-90 BCCAC91-95 CDBAD96-100 DDABCPART VIThe Importance of Cooperation Nowadays cooperation turns out to be the mainstream of our life. And people are becoming increasingly aware of the significance of cooperation. In my opinion, cooperation is of prime importance for the individuals, companies and the whole society.I have several reasons to support my point of view.To start with, by cooperating with others we can achieve things that can't be donesingle-handed. For example, when playing basketball, every player must attach great importance to team work, otherwise he would lose the game. Secondly, cooperation conduces to the establishment of harmonious atmosphere among fellow workers. Although competition has been listed as a prominent feature in the workplace, cooperation should always come first becausecompanies that stress competition more than anything else characterize bad interpersonal relationships and oppressing circumstances. Thirdly, cooperation can benefit the whole society because unity is strength, as the saything goes.A case in point is the 2008 Olympic Games in Beijing. Were it not for the cooperation of millions of people, the Olympics would not be as successful as it was.On the whole, cooperation is quite important in our life. If we pay more attention to it, we will achieve more and contribute more to the society.Note-writingApril 21st Dear Mary,I've learnt that you have bought a new filling cabinet.

According to the speaker,what is the special thing about his dog Jack?27. Why did Jack come to sit in front of the visitor?28. According to the speaker,what is a Seeing Eye dog?Passage TwoAlthough the first computers were produced for use in government and industry, they have become common in other areas during the past 25 years.In business, computers perform many functions. They are used to perform the data processing operations of recording, classifying, sorting, computing, storing, reporting, reproducing and communicating information. They have the advantage of being able to complete these processes at very high speeds. Computers also can process data in a size invisible to the human eye, making storage of materials a simpler task than it once was.Universities utilize computers in several ways. Just as business stores statistical data, universities store statistics about students using computers. Registration also has been aided by the computer. By putting their programs ofstudies on the computer, students can find out immediately which classes are open for additional students and which already have the number that are allowed to register. Many professors use computers in their research, and experiments have been done on teaching by means of the computer.Computers have also been affecting our daily lives more and more. Most large departments and grocery stores now have computerized cash registers. Almost everyone is familiar with the computerized billing that is done on the large expressways. It is even possible today to buy your own computer and use it in your home. Questions 29 to 31 are based on the passage you have just heard.29. In what other areas were computers commonly used in the past 25 years?30. Which of the following is not mentioned as a way that computers are used inuniversities?31. How do computers affect our daily lives in the past 25 years?Passage ThreeTo get a driver’s license,you must take a series of tests.The first test is the vision test.This test checks your eyes to see if you have to wear glasses when you drive.The second test is a written test that checks your knowledge of highway and traffic regulations.You can prepare for this test by studying a booklet that you can get at the driver’s license office.After you pass the written test.you receive an instruction permit.This permit allows you to practise driving with an experienced driver.The last test you have to take is a road test.This checks your driving ability.If you pass it,you will receive your driver’s license.When you go to the driver’s license office to take the road test,you must provide your own vehicle.First,the license examiner checks the mechanical condition of your Car.Then.the examiner gets into the car with you and asks you to drive in regular traffic.While you are driving,the examiner tests you for such things as starting,stopping,turning,backing up,and parking.If you can’t control the car properly,or if you violate a traffic regulation while you are taking the test.you fail the examination.You will have to practice driving more until you take the road test again and pass it.Questions 32 to 35 are based on the passage you have just heard.32. What does the second test check?33. What does the instruction permit allow you to do?34. According to the passage,what can we learn about the road test?35. Who are the most probable readers of the passage?Section CWe find that bright children are (36) rarely held back by mixed-ability teaching.On the (37) contrary,both their knowledge and experience are (38) enriched.We feel that there are many disadvantages in streaming pupils.It does not take into account the fact that children develop at different rates.It can have a bad effect on both the bright and the not-so-bright child.After all,it can be quite discouraging to be at the (39) bottom of the top grade!Besides,it is rather unreal to grade people just according to their(40)intellectual ability.This is only one aspect of their total (41)personality.We are concerned to develop the abilities of all our pupils to the full,not just their (42) academic ability.We also value personal qualities and social skills,and we find that mixed-ability teaching (43) contributes to all these aspects of learning. In our classrooms,we work in various ways.The pupils often work in groups: this gives them the opportunity to learn to cooperate,to share,and to develop leadership skills.(44)They also learn how to cope with personal problems as well as learning how to think,to make decisions,to analyse and evaluate,and to communicate effectively.The pupils learn from each other as well as from the teacher. (45)Sometimes the pupils work in pairs;sometimes they work on individual tasks and assignments,and they can do this at their own speed.They also have some formal class teaching when this is appropriate.We encourage our pupils to use the library, and we teach them the skills they need in order to do this efficiently.An advanced pupil can do advanced work: it does not matter what age the child is.(46)We expect our pupils to do their best,not their least,and we give them every encouragement to attain this goal.答案分析Part ⅠWriting【参考范文】Telecommunication Brings Convenience to Modern LifeModern tire would be unimaginable without telecommunications. Telephone, fax and TV are already household words. New terms like pager, mobile phone and Email are entering our daily life at a rapid pace. Telecommunications have penetrated nearly every aspect of modern life and are fast changing the way we live.It is no exaggeration to say that telecommunications bring huge profits and great convenience to our daily life. For instance, the telephone makes it possible for people in different places to talk to one another. Pager and mobile phone enable us to make a phone call regardless of time and place. Compared with ordinary mail delivery, or even with express airmail delivery, electronic mail delivers mails much faster and at a surprisingly cheap price, no matter where the receiver is. Surfing the Internet is also a by-product of telecommunications, which provides us with easy access to wealth of information. Furthermore, thanks to the rapid growth of telecommunications, business corporations can manage business affairs far more efficiently through phone, fax, and on-line computer.However, there are disadvantages brought about by telecommunications, such as phone bills for unnecessary talks, the disturbance of unwanted or wrong calls, and the attraction of hot-line services, etc. Yet by and large, telecommunications bring more benefit than harm to our life. By shortening distance, telecommunicationsenhance efficiency in our commercial activities, save time and money in promoting interpersonal relations as well as in acquiring knowledge and accumulating information. Telecommunications have changed and will change our way of life.Part ⅡReading Comprehension (Skimming and Scanning)1. 【答案】D【分析】细节题。

Keys to Model T est TwoPart I WritingThe Pros and Cons of College Students’ T aking Part-time Jobs Nowadays many college students take part-time jobs in their spare time. As the proverb goes, every coin has its two sides. So does college Students’ taking part-time jobs.(引出话题) It is no doubt that taking a part-time job will directly bring much benefit to college students. Above all, part-time jobs provide students a valuable chance to put their knowledge into practice. And the experience they get from part-time jobs will prepare them for the future job market. Furthermore, students can earn some money to help unload the burden on their families. However, problems may also arise. For one thing, part-time jobs might affect students’normal study. For another, students may be cheated or hurt by their employers, just for lack of enough social experience. (分析利弊)Weighing the advantages and disadvantages, I think that we college students should step out of campus and take some part-time jobs. Undoubtedly, it will open a window for us to know the society. But it is worth noting that we should not neglect our study while taking part-time jobs. To conclude, if the school schedule permits, doing part-time jobs in spare time is a good choice for us college students. (表达看法)Part III Listening ComprehensionSection A11. A12. C 13. B 14. B 15.

They think about what kinds of problems they need to solve and how they can make driving safer, faster, or just way more fun. This is the CP, where the magical concept for a new car part is born!Stage 2: PD (Product Design)Once the idea is all sparkly and ready to go, it's time for the PD phase. This is where the engineers and designers get to work, using their mad skills and fancy computers to turn that concept into a detailed plan. They figure out every tiny detail, from the materials to use to the exact shape and size of the part. It's like they're creating a blueprint for an incredible invention!Stage 3: PP (Prototype Production)Now things start to get really exciting! In the PP stage, the engineers take their designs and actually build the very first version of the car part. This is called a prototype, and it's like a practice run before the real thing. They might make a few different prototypes to test out different ideas and make sure everything works perfectly.Stage 4: TV (Testing and Validation)Once the prototypes are ready, it's time for the TV stage. This is where the car part gets put through its paces to make sure it's as awesome as the engineers hoped. They might test it in super hot or super cold temperatures, or even try to break it (don't worry, that's on purpose!) to see how tough it is. If the part passes all the tests, it's ready for the final stage!Stage 5: LP (Launch Production)In the LP stage, the car part is finally ready to be made for real and sent out to all the amazing car factories around the world. The engineers and workers have to make sure they can produce lots and lots of the part quickly and efficiently. And then, before you know it, that brilliant idea from the CP stage has become a real, live car part that helps make vehicles safer, faster, or just way cooler!There you have it, kids – the 5 awesome adventures that every car part goes on before it can zoom into your favorite rides. From CP to LP, it's an incredible journey filled with creativity, hard work, and a whole lot of fun. Who knows, maybe one day you'll be the one dreaming up the next great car part idea!篇2The 5 Stages of Developing Car PartsHi there, my little friends! Today, I want to tell you all about the super cool process of developing car parts. Cars are made up of many different parts, and each part has to be carefully designed and created before it can be used in a car. Let's learn about the five stages of developing car parts together!Stage 1: Research and Planning (RP)Before anything else, the engineers and designers need to do a lot of research and planning. They ask questions like "What kind of part do we need?" and "How can we make it better than before?" They also look at what other companies are doing and try to come up with new and awesome ideas. This is called the Research and Planning stage, or RP for short.Stage 2: Design and Development (DD)Once the engineers and designers have a good idea of what they want to create, it's time to start designing and developing the car part. They use special computer programs to draw the part and make sure it will fit perfectly in the car. They also create prototypes, which are like test versions of the part. This stage is called Design and Development, or DD for short.Stage 3: Testing and Evaluation (TE)After the car part is designed and a prototype is made, it's time for testing and evaluation. This is when the engineers and designers check to see if the part works well and if it's safe to use. They test the part in all kinds of conditions, like extreme heat or cold, to make sure it won't break or cause any problems. They also evaluate how the part performs and if any improvements need to be made. Testing and Evaluation is the name of this stage, or TE for short.Stage 4: Production and Manufacturing (PM)Once the car part has been tested and approved, it's time to start making lots of them! This is called the Production and Manufacturing stage, or PM for short. The engineers and designers work with factories and machines to produce the parts on a large scale. They make sure the parts are made correctly and that they meet all the quality standards. It's a very important stage because without it, we wouldn't have enough parts to build cars!Stage 5: Assembly and Integration (AI)Finally, we come to the last stage of developing car parts, which is Assembly and Integration, or AI for short. In this stage, all the different parts of the car are put together to make the final product – the car itself! The car parts are carefully assembled by skilled workers who follow specific instructions. They make sure everything fits together perfectly and that the car is ready to hit the road.And there you have it, my little friends – the five stages of developing car parts: RP, DD, TE, PM, and AI! It's a fascinating process that involves a lot of hard work, creativity, and teamwork. Next time you see a car, remember all the effort that went into making each and every part. Who knows, maybe one day you'llbecome a car designer or engineer and help create amazing car parts yourself!篇3The Exciting Journey of Making Car Parts: A 5-Step Adventure!Have you ever wondered how the cool parts that make up your family's car are created? It's an amazing process that involves lots of hard work and creativity. Let me take you on a fun journey to explore the 5 stages of developing car parts, and we'll use some cool abbreviations along the way!Stage 1: CP (Concept Phase)This is where the adventure begins! Imagine a team of engineers and designers sitting together, dreaming up ideas for a brand-new car part. Maybe it's a sleek new headlight design or a fancy dashboard display. They sketch out their ideas on paper and discuss how the part should look, what materials to use, and how it will work.During the CP, the team also considers things like cost, safety, and environmental impact. They want to make sure the part is affordable, keeps people safe, and doesn't harm theplanet. It's like planning an exciting trip, but instead of deciding where to go, they're figuring out what amazing part to create!Stage 2: DP (Design Phase)Now that the team has a cool concept, it's time to turn those ideas into detailed plans. This is the DP, where engineers and designers get to work on their computers, creating 3D models and technical drawings of the part.Imagine them as architects, carefully planning out every nook and cranny of the part. They use special software to make sure everything fits together perfectly, just like putting together a complex puzzle. During this stage, they also run simulations to test how the part will perform in different situations, like extreme temperatures or crashes.Stage 3: PP (Prototype Phase)With the designs all set, it's time to bring the part to life! In the PP, the team builds a real-life version of the part called a prototype. This is like a practice run before making the final product.Using special machines and tools, they carefully craft the prototype from the same materials they plan to use for the actualpart. It's like sculpting a work of art, but instead of clay, they're working with metals, plastics, and other high-tech materials.Once the prototype is ready, the team puts it through rigorous testing to see how well it performs. They might simulate crashes, expose it to extreme temperatures, or put it through other tough challenges. If the prototype passes all the tests, it's time to move on to the next stage!Stage 4: VP (Validation Phase)In the VP, the team makes sure the part is ready for prime time. They build a small batch of the parts, just like they would in a real factory, and put them through even more intense testing.Imagine a team of engineers and technicians running the parts through all sorts of crazy tests, like simulating decades of wear and tear or driving them across rough terrain. They want to be absolutely certain that the part can handle anything the real world throws at it.If the parts pass all the tests with flying colors, it's time for the final stage!Stage 5: LP (Launch Phase)This is the moment everyone has been waiting for – the LP! After months or even years of hard work, the new car part is finally ready to be produced and installed in vehicles.The team works closely with the factory to set up the production line and make sure everything runs smoothly. Imagine massive machines stamping out parts, robots assembling them with precision, and workers carefully inspecting each one for quality.Finally, the new parts are shipped off to dealerships and repair shops, where they can be installed in cars and trucks all over the world. It's like the grand finale of a spectacular show, with the amazing new part taking center stage!And there you have it – the 5-stage adventure of developing a new car part, complete with cool abbreviations like CP, DP, PP, VP, and LP. Who knew making something as simple as a headlight or a dashboard display could be such an exciting journey? Next time you're in the car, take a look around and appreciate all the hard work and creativity that went into making those incredible parts a reality!篇4"The Awesome Journey of Making Car Parts!"Hi there, friends! Today, we're going to explore the exciting world of making car parts. Imagine all the different pieces that come together to create a magnificent vehicle – the wheels, the engine, the seats, and so much more! It's like a giant puzzle, and we're going to learn about the steps involved in putting it all together.First up, we have the CP stage, which stands for "Concept Phase." This is where the magic begins! Engineers and designers put their brilliant minds together to come up with ideas for new car parts. They think about what the part needs to do, how it should look, and what materials it should be made of. It's like when you're planning to build a super cool LEGO set – you have to figure out what pieces you'll need and how they'll fit together.Next, we move on to the DP stage, or "Design Phase." This is where the ideas from the CP stage come to life! Engineers use fancy computer programs to create 3D models of the car parts. They can spin the models around, zoom in and out, and make sure everything looks just right. It's like creating your own virtual LEGO model before building the real thing!Once the design is ready, it's time for the PP stage –"Prototype Phase." This is where the engineers build the first real-life version of the car part. They might use special machinesor 3D printers to create a prototype made of plastic or metal. It's like taking your virtual LEGO model and turning it into an actual physical model!After the prototype is made, the engineers test it to make sure it works properly. This is called the VP stage, or "Validation Phase." They might put the car part through different challenges, like extreme temperatures or bumpy roads, to see how it holds up. It's like putting your LEGO model through some tough challenges to make sure it's sturdy and won't fall apart.Finally, we have the MP stage, which stands for "Mass Production Phase." This is where the car part gets made in huge numbers, ready to be installed in all the new vehicles. Factories use big machines and assembly lines to create thousands or even millions of the same part. It's like having a massive LEGO factory that can build tons of your awesome model!And there you have it, friends! The five stages of making car parts: CP, DP, PP, VP, and MP. It's a long journey from an idea to a finished product, but with hard work and teamwork, engineers can create amazing things that help us get from place to place. Who knows, maybe one day you'll be the one designing and building the coolest car parts ever!篇5The Five Stages of Automotive Parts Development ProcessHey there, young automobile enthusiasts! Are you curious about how car parts are developed? Well, today we're going to learn about the five stages of the Automotive Parts Development Process. It's going to be super cool! Let's dive right in!Stage 1: Conceptualization (CON)The first stage is all about coming up with awesome ideas for new car parts. Engineers, designers, and dreamers gather together to brainstorm and think of innovative concepts. They imagine how these parts can improve the performance, safety, and design of future cars. It's like dreaming big!Stage 2: Design and Development (D&D)Once the ideas are finalized, it's time to bring them to life! In this stage, engineers and designers create detailed drawings, blueprints, and computer models of the parts. They analyze every tiny detail to ensure they work perfectly and fit into the overall car design. It's like solving a big puzzle!Stage 3: Prototyping and Testing (P&T)Now, it's time for some hands-on action! Engineers build prototypes, which are real-life samples of the parts. These prototypes are then tested rigorously to see how they perform under different conditions.篇6The 5 Stages of Developing Car PartsHi there, my young friends! Today, I want to tell you all about the process of developing car parts. Do you know that a car is made up of many different parts? Well, these parts go through a special process before they can be put together to make a car. Let's explore the 5 stages of developing car parts!Stage 1: Research and Planning (R&P)The first stage is all about doing research and making plans. Just like when you have a project at school, you need to gather information and come up with a plan. Car companies do the same thing! They study what kind of parts they need and what materials to use. They also think about safety, cost, and how the parts will work together. This stage is called R&P for short.Stage 2: Designing and Testing (D&T)Once the plans are ready, it's time to design the car parts. Engineers use computers to create detailed drawings of how the parts will look. They also make small models or prototypes to test them out. These prototypes are like mini versions of the real parts. Engineers check if they fit together correctly and if they work well. They might have to make changes and test again. This stage is called D&T for short.Stage 3: Manufacturing (M)After the designs have been approved, it's time to make the actual car parts. This is the manufacturing stage. Big machines and skilled workers make the parts using special tools and materials. They follow the designs very carefully to make sure the parts are just right. It's like when you follow a recipe to bake cookies – you need to measure everything correctly and follow the steps. The manufacturing stage is called M for short.Stage 4: Quality Control (QC)Once the parts are made, they go through a process called quality control. This stage is all about checking if the parts are good enough to be used in cars. Inspectors carefully examine each part to make sure it meets the high standards set by the car company. They look for any defects or problems and fix them if needed. This stage is called QC for short.Stage 5: Assembly (A)Finally, it's time to put all the car parts together! This is the assembly stage. Skilled workers in car factories use special tools and machines to assemble the parts and build the cars. They follow a specific order and make sure everything fits perfectly. It's like putting together a puzzle – each part has its special place. This stage is called A for short.And there you have it, my friends! The 5 stages of developing car parts: R&P, D&T, M, QC, and A. Remember, it takes a lot of hard work, planning, and testing to make the car parts we use every day. Next time you see a car, you'll know that each part went through this amazing process. Keep exploring and learning about the world around you!I hope you enjoyed learning about car parts with me. Have a great day!。
Key to Model T est onePart I Writing On Cross-specialty CoursesIn quite a lot of universities, there is a rule applying to all undergraduates that credits from cross-specialty courses in other majors are required for their graduation. Consequently, college students have the feeling that they are more involved in those cross-specialty optional courses than their compulsory courses.Recently, a voice of doubt arises, claiming that the higher education one gets, the more specific training he should obtain. If much energy and time is put into other courses instead of the courses which students should have focused on, it will be a great waste of the education resources.Personally, everyone has the right to choose whatever he likes. I am obsessed with the beauty of language while numbers and formulas have always been a headache to me. Everyone is born with his or her own strengths and weaknesses and there is no point in forcing one to endure the pressure of learning what he or she is not interested in.Part II.

M: Have you already landed your job?W: Yes, I do outdoor work for the people nearby, cutting grass, cleaning fallen leaves and removing weeds, things like that.Q: What does the woman do?12. W: I hear that you have a job at the supermarket. What do you do there?M: I work in the produce section. Sometimes when it's busy, I also stock shelves and offer a hand at the cash counter.Q: What does the man sometimes do at the supermarket?13. M: Prof. Green has lost his voice, so he couldn't give his class this afternoon.W: Does he want me to find someone else to replace him?Q: What does the woman mean?14. W: Twenty-four credit hours are required to get an MA—ten from the Education Departmentand ten from the Psychology Department, for the other four, you have to turn in a thesis.M: That seems a lot, but I think I can make it.Q: What are they talking about?15. W: Well, the lecture on wind energy is fascinating. But you don't seem interested. Don't youlike it?M: I have to admit that I couldn't concentrate on it since it is too difficult for me.Q: How does the man feel about the lecture?16. M: The trees on our campus are indeed nice.W: I agree. And they can lower our need for air conditioning, don't you think so?Q: What does the woman mean?17. W: I've decided the topic of my paper and I plan to focus on World War Ⅰ.M: Quite good, but you need to concentrate on one particular area. What about the events in the Pacific?Q: What does the man think of the woman's topic?18. M: I wonder if you'd like to come to the concert with me, or do you have to prepare for the testnext week?W: Honestly speaking, I still have much to prepare for the test, but maybe a break will bring me benefits.Q: What will the woman probably do?Now you will hear the two long conversations.Conversation OneW: Where are you going to spend Thanksgiving, at home or your mother's place?M: Mom and Dad want to have all the family back home this year, so that's where we'll be. How about you?W: (19)I plan to have everyone come over to my place this year. There is really a lot of work, butI love having my family all together and I like to entertain.M: You are such a good cook. I bet your family love coming to your place, too.W: I don't do all the cooking myself. I think everyone enjoys it a little more if they each bring something they have made.M: Do you have traditional dishes that you serve every year? I know our family does.W: Yes, we do. We always have turkey and dressing, mashed potatoes and gravy and, of course, sweet potatoes. I think those are traditional dishes for most families. There is a fruit salad that we have every year and everyone looks forward to my pumpkin pie.M: What do the men in your family do while the women are doing the cooking?W: It's the same every year—football. They watch one game after another on Thanksgiving. I tell them that they ought to go out and get some exercise, but they just can't get away from the tube. They're glued to it!M: A lot of men like that. (20) In my family, we go bowling together after dinner. It's a fun thing to do together as a family. After a couple of games, we go back home and eat the leftovers. W: (21)I like that about Thanksgiving. We cook so much food that we have leftovers to last for several meals and I don't have to cook.Questions 19 to 21 are based on the conversation you have just heard.19. Where will the woman spend Thanksgiving this year?20. What does the man's family usually do after dinner?21. What is the woman's attitude toward leftovers during Thanksgiving?Conversation TwoW: (22) Good evening. Welcome to our program, Jack.M: Thanks.W: How long have you been a police officer?M: Thirty years. I've done different types of assignments on the police force, from patrol to undercover work to detective work, and I'm supervising investigations now.W: Is being a police officer stressful?M: Yes, definitely. But it depends on your assignment.W: (23)Which assignment is most stressful in your opinion?M: (23)Patrol.W: Oh, really? But why?M: (24) Because the biggest part of the stress is the fear factor—the fear of the unknown.W: What do you mean by “the fear of the unknown”?M: Well, in patrol work, you don't know from moment to moment who you are talking to or what their reaction is going to be to justify your presence. For example, if a patrol officer stops someone for a traffic violation, the driver may try to escape or even back over the officer. So that's really a very dangerous job and full of risks.W: I see. It's a risky job and you have to protect yourself all the time.M: Thus all police officers are taught from the very beginning to be aware of their surroundings.People back over them, shoot them, or jump out at them—all kinds of things. That's full of pressure.W: I see. Well, Jack, thank you for coming to our program and sharing your work with us.M: You're welcome.Questions 22 to 25 are based on the conversation you have just heard.22. What's the relationship between the two speakers?23. What kind of assignment is most stressful according to Jack?24. Why is patrol considered most dangerous for the police?25. What can we infer about Jack?Section BPassage OneExtremely hot weather is common in many parts of the world. Hot weather does not only make people feel hot, it also causes serious medical problems, even death.Floods, storms and other natural events kill thousands of people every year. So does extreme heat. (26)Experts say heat may be nature's deadliest killer. For example, temperatures reached almost 50℃ in several Indian states, I and Indian officials blamed extreme heat for killing more than 200 people in late May.Several hot days that follow each other are considered a heat wave. (27) Experts say heat waves often become dangerous when the nighttime temperature does not drop much from the highest daytime temperature. This brings many problems to the human body. The most common health problem linked to hot weather is heat stress. The causes of heat stress include wearing heavy clothing, physical work or exercise, hot weather and high humidity, which means there is too much water in the air. If several of these conditions are present at the same time, a person's body temperature may rise above safe levels. However, doctors say people can do many things to protect themselves from the dangers of extreme heat. (28)Stay out of the sun if possible. Drink lots of cool water. Wear light colored clothing made of natural materials. Make sure the clothingis loose and permits enough space for movement. Also, learn the danger signs of the medical problems linked to heat.Questions 26 to 28 are based on the passage you have just heard.26. What may be nature's deadliest killer according to the experts?27. What could cause great stress on the human body?28. What should people do to protect themselves from extreme heat?Passage TwoCar crashes are the top killer of American teenagers. Most of the crashes result from distracted driving—not paying attention to the road.Ryan Didone was a 15-year-old passenger in a car that hit a tree. He was one of more than 30 thousand victims of traffic crashes in 2008. Nearly 4 000 deaths, about 12%,involved drivers aged 15 to 20. Ryan's father, Thomas Didone, is a police captain in Montgomery County, Maryland. “It was an inexperienced, immature driver who felt that he was excellent, driving at night with a carload of kids. (29)He was distracted, he was going too fast, and it ended up causing one death and some serious trag edy for the rest of the community.”Jim Jennings from the Allstate Insurance Company says the No. 1 factor that causes distracted-driving accidents is the mobile phone. He says talking on the phone or reaching for it is like driving after drinking four beers. (30)“If you're sending messages while driving, you are 23 times more likely to get into an accident than somebody who isn't. If you're reaching for a cell phone when it's falling off, you're 9 times more likely to get into an accident than normallydr iving.”(31)Government and private groups are using public service announcements and events to bring more attention to the problem. For example, the insurance industry recently held a safety event near Washington for teen drivers. At first, 19-year-old Kevin Schumann easily avoided large, inflatable dolls thrown in front of the car to represent children. He also avoided orange cones representing the edge of the road. Then, as part of the test, he started texting. He hit several cones and at least one doll.Questions 29 to 31 are based on the passage you have just heard.29. What was the cause of the accident in 2008?30. What is the most dangerous thing while driving according to Jim Jennings?31. How does the safety event near Washington influence teen drivers?Passage ThreeWriting a term paper, research paper or essay for a college class is a kind of academic writing.(32)Academic writing among professionals is a way to create new knowledge.A professor assigns students to write a paper. The students examine an issue, review what is already known, think about what they have learned and come to some conclusion. (33)This means that each student-writer must present information and also have their own standpoint. The student might support an idea, question it or even disprove it; or he could show how the subject may beunderstood better or in a different way from the way it has been. And he must support the position with evidence.Cultural differences may interfere when international students try to write this way. (34) Writing teachers say students in many countries have learned to write beautiful and descriptive sentences about something without ever stating the main idea. But American college students are more likely to state their main idea at the beginning of the paper. Another difference is about writing style. (34)Lots of descriptive words may be used in other cultures, but American Students value short, strong sentences.A graduate tutor says non-native English speakers generally have some trouble with English grammar. He says their sentences may be too long, or they incorrectly use articles such as “a”,“an” and “the”. He also says non-native speakers generally use too much emotional language and give too many details before getting to the main idea.(35) The associate director of a writing centre says international students should look online for materials that explain the kind of writing they will be required to do. They should also ask their professors for help.Questions 32 to 35 are based on the passage you have just heard.32. What is the function of academic writing?33. What is required when students write an academic writing?34. What is the trouble for international students in academic writing?35. What could help international students in writing?Section CNow listen to the passage.An American study has shown a link between activities on the surface of the sun and weather conditions on Earth. Small changes in the sun'sbrightness can produce effects on Earth, resembling two weather events in warm waters of the Pacific Ocean. The two events are commonly known as La Nina and El Nino. Reports say the study may lead to better predictions of temperatures, rainfall and the intensity of weather systems. Scientists measure solar activities by counting dark areas on the sun's surface. These sun spots produce bursts of energy. Other scientists have shown that sun spot activities can be measured in periods of time that last about 11 years. The total energy reaching Earth from the sun rises and falls by just one tenth of one percent across this solar cycle. In the new study, scientists cautiously examined more than 100 years of ocean temperature records. They also used computer programs designed to reproduce the world's climate. They found the highest levels of solar activities cause small, but far-reaching effects on weather systems around the world. These periods of high activity are known as solar maximums. A report says that at maximum activity, the small increase in sunshine over several years causes a small temperature increase in Earth's atmosphere. This is especially true in cloud-free areas of the Pacific. The extra heat is enough to cause ocean waters to evaporate into the air. This wet air is then carried by trade winds to the normally rainy areas of the western Pacific, near the Equator. This creates more rainfall.。
Model Test (2)Key to Model Test (2) Band ThreePart I. Writing (30minutes)Sample Writing:Making Friends OnlineWith the development of high technology, computers are playing a more andmore important role in our daily life. A lot of people, esp. young people prefer to make friends online rather than go out to meet friends in person. In their opinion, they can save time and energy by talking with other people through computers. What’s more, making friends online is considered a fashion and young people always want to keep up with the fashion.There is no doubt people can benefit a lot from making friends online. On the one hand, it can save time and money for people and give them more free time which is very precious in this highly competitive society. On the other hand, people can make more friends than they used to do because it is very convenient to make friends this way. However, just as each coin has two sides, making friends online sometimes maybring us problems. Since people don’t need to meet each other face to face, many give false information and cheat online, while, at the same time, they are being cheated, too.In addition, people spend all their free time sitting and chatting in front of their computers,which may cause health problems. Therefore, we must avoid the extremes andhave a proper attitude towards making friends online.Part II. Reading Comprehension (Skimming and Scanning)(15minutes)1.

Key to Model Test TwoPart I Writing【参考范文】To Be a Small Fish in a Big Pond or a Big Fish in a Small Pond?There are distinct differences between being a small fish in a big pond and a big fish in a small pond, so it is with working as a subordinate in a large enterprise and presiding in a small firm.With the former, you can derive a deep sense of satisfaction from being a member of a well-known organization such as General Motors, or the Bell. You have the opportunities of learning from experienced executives and knowing about the standard working process.With the latter, you have greater responsibilities and your decision may bring immediate effect. Normally you are exposed to various experiences and expected to do a great many things without much help or guidance, which will indeed improve your abilities.Personally I prefer to work in a small firm, where I have great prospect of promotion as long as I work hard. And I'm sure I'll become an important figure within my small pond.Part II Reading Comprehension (Skimming and Scanning)1. B2. B3. A4. D5. B6. C7.

Key to Model Test One1.WritingIs Offering Seats Compulsory for Young Bus Riders?These days, whether it should become compulsory for young bus riders to conduct good deeds on bus, like giving up seats to needy people, has become a topic for debate.Some people believe it is just basic good manners for young people to offer their seats to the elderly, the pregnant and the so-called “weak” groups. It is nothing but maintenance of high moral standards. On the contrary, other people say young people pay the same fare as other riders, and therefore have no obligation to give up their seats. It is in nature a moral rather than a legal issue.For my part, I think such good deeds as giving up seats to needy people is truly necessary, but the precondition is that one does this out of true willingness. Only when good deeds are based on good will are the good deeds meaningful.2.Skimming and Scanning1-7D, C, B, A, D, C, D8. seeing it on foot 9. warm green tea with lemon 10 cold viruses3.Listening Comprehension11-18 B, B, D, C, B, C, A, D 19-22 A, A, D, C 23-25 C, A, A26-28 B, D, B 29-31 B, B, C 32-35 D, C, D, A36 Private 37.

Worse still, this practice may well deprive such students of valuable future jobs and promotion opportunities, putting them in an even more difficult financial position. However, may others consider college graduates are supposed to thoroughly fulfill their obligations and take due responsibility, instead of adding the loan issue to their bad credit record.From my point of view, I don’t think blacklisting and exposing student loan defaulters is a very good way to tackle the related issues. Neither will it do good the students nor will banks benefit from it. Therefore, when education loan defaults occur, it is advisable to adopt more reasonable measures.2.Skimming and Scanning1-7D, C, B, D, B, C, C 8. you’re not getting lectures9. in-person attendance 10. course Web page3.

People from different backgrounds hold different attitudes towards the issue.Some people strongly approve of the ban. They argue that it is necessary and urgent to maintain the linguistic independence and purity of Chinese, because it is the source of Chinese culture. If too many English abbreviations are not stopped yet, not only will Chinese be gradually reduced from an independent expression system to a mixture of languages, but also the status of Chinese as an embodiment of Chinese culture will be shaken. However, many opponents to the ban argue that accepting English abbreviations reflects the Chinese language’s strong tolerance. Apartial or blanket ban on the abbreviations would limit the source of new words and the vitality of Chinese language. Meanwhile, English abbreviations have already become a part of Chinese language, so ban on these words would also have a negative effect on the expression of ideas.In my opinion, it’s significant to impose a ban on English abbreviations. For one thing, the ban contributes to protecting the purity of Chinese; for another, it prevents the flavor and inheritance of Chinese culture from being damaged.2.

Views on this issue vary from person to person.People who favor the system believe that the real name registration system will be helpful in a wide range of social issues, from tracking criminals to curbing message spasm. Furthermore, by knowing who their customers are, service providers will be able to provide better services and more efficient management of the business, ensuring the benefits and interests of customers. However, those opposed to the usage of the real name registration system argue against its effectiveness on curbing crimes and doubt the confidentiality of personal information of the clients.To my point of view, I believe the real name registration of cell phone users will be of great help to either operators or users in the long run. But to this end, a self-discipline telecom industry is firstly required. Meanwhile, it is requisite to strengthen related supervisions and mutual trust between customers and authorities.2.Skimming and Scanning1-7 B, C, D, D, C, B, D 8. shopping list9. encourages convenience 10, sales on specific items3.

WritingShould College Entrance Exam Results Be Made Public?The issue whether college entrance exam results should be made public has long been the focus among people. There are different opinions about it.Those who applaud making the results public believe that in the case of college entrance exam , students’scores can’t be regarded as private information, for millions of students are involved in this public activity. Most importantly, they doubt, to keep the results secret will affect the fairness and transparency of the college recruiting process. Others, however, insist college entrance exam results should be kept private. They say the practice shows respect for students, teachers and parents, either of whom can face the exam in a more relaxed environment and it will be easier to promote quality-oriented education.For my part, I think making the college entrance exam results a private matter is undoubtedly great progress and it is this kind of reform and innovation in the current system that will improve the quality of education. But an undeniable fact is that it’s still impractical for the time being.2.

WritingIs the Ban on Abusive Language Online Helpful?Recently, the topic whether the ban on abusive language on the Internet is helpful or not has aroused great attention and debate. Some people believe that it helpful while others doubt its effectiveness.Those in favor of this move state that imposing the ban on line abuse is counterattack against the deterioration of the communication method on the Internet. More significantly, it’s no doubt that the ban gives positive guidance to either netizens or the public and helps encourage higher morality. However, other people oppose that the ban, as a matter of fact, is unnecessary and difficult to practice, morality should be encourage people to be more polite.Personally speaking, I agree with the former opinion. Abusive language online, in most cases logical, is a desperate insult to suppress others’ideas. Thus, ban concerning this issue can offer helpful instructions to the netizens. In addition, it also contributes to promoting the moral standards of the whole society.2.

WritingShould Universities Charge More to Sponsor the Poor?Recently, whether or not universities should raise fees and offer more scholarships and loans to poor students ignited debates.Supporters contend that if universities charge more for higher education, poor students are capable of receiving more scholarships and aids, which would enable them to be relieved from heavy financial burdens and obtain rich support. Opponents to the proposal, however, argue that the so-called preferential mode of “high tuition fees, high scholarships and loans”won’t enhance assistant to poor students; instead, it will force more poor students to give up opportunities to receive higher education.Considering the pros and cons on the issue, I think the strategy of charging more to sponsor the poor is not operational in practice. As a matter of fact, it’s a public problem that cannot be solved by means of increasing tuition fees. Worse still, this form can really risk poor students’chances for admission.2.

WritingShould Online Business Be TaxedAS to whether online business should be taxed, there is a long running concern as well as controversial debate.Some people contend that online business are economic entities with the purpose of making profits, so it’s reasonable and obligatory for them to pay taxes. Taxing online businesses also demonstrate fairness to both physical retail businesses and their online counterparts. What’s more important, levying taxes online business is in line with the standard commercial model, from which they will benefit in the long run. But others disapprove the practice. They hold the view that despite the high ecommerce transaction volume, online businesses do not have a very high profit margin. Taxation may force many online businesses to quit because they cannot make money any longer. Besides, if online businesses are taxed, the increasing costs are likely to be shifted to consumers, unfavorable for their healthy development.As for my personal viewpoint. I support the former opinion. Now that online businesses are commercial activities, they have no excuse to be exempted from taxation. Furthermore, the tax-free model surely brings some benefits to online businesses in the short term, but it will become a great obstacle for the far reaching development of the whole trade.2.

Views on this issue vary from person to person.Many people claim that the media are obliged to apology if their reports are not accurate. As the communicant and supervisory power, the media should bear the responsibility of guaranteeing objectivity and authenticity the soul of the news reports. Otherwise, either the public are inclined to be misled or the interested party’s reputation and fame would be negatively affected. But others examine this issue from another angle. They hold the view that the objectivity and truth in news reports are not absolute. In this sense, as long as the intentions of the media are pure, any mistakes they make in reporting should be tolerated by the public.As far as I am concerned, I stand on the side of the former view. At the public eyes, the media are bound to respect and protect people’s rights to get the real story. In this case, if any inaccurate reporting occurs, the media have no reason to escape from admitting and apologizing for their mistakes.Part II Reading Comprehension(Skimming and Scanning)1.B)2. C)3.

Key to Model Test OnePart I Writing【参考范文一】What Is in the Way of Paying Back the LoansEver since colleges started to charge the students for the education they receive,there has always been a problem for some students,especially for those from remote rural regions,to get the money for it.So the government offers them an option of borrowing money from banks.Surveys show that the number of students financing his education in this way is increasing.However,some students,although not many,failed to pay back the loans as they had promised in the contract.The banks have a very hard time coping with this problem.And the government can do nothing effective to help the banks.I think there is more than one reason for this.Dishonesty may be one but not the major one.As is known, we are experiencing a particular phase of economic development where the supply of human resources is much bigger than the demand for it.So many students are not able to find a well-paid job.How can they pay the loans back? To solve this problem,I think the government should make efforts to get the whole economy go smoothly,creating more job opportunities.【参考范文二】What Is in the Way of Paying Back the LoansCollege education is a kind of service,which needs to be paid for.But in fact,many students in China cannot afford the fees.So they,encouraged by the government,apply for loans from the banks.However,the problem is not over yet..After four years,these students are faced with the task of paying back the loans.Surveys indicate that quite a number of students failed to pay back the loans or failed to do so in time.I think the reasons might be manifold.And the lack of relevant laws should be singled out.It seems that nothing effective can be done to deal with this.The banks and the government can do nothing effective to make the students do what they promised to d0.S0 1 think laws must be made immediately,stating clearly the rights and obligations of each party.And this can also help strengthen the students’ sense of responsibility as adults.Part II Reading Comprehension(Skimming and Scanning)本文是一片介绍保险的文章,有五个小标题构成,分别从什么是保险,从哪里买保险,保险的种类,保险金的制定标准,以及政府参与的保险等五个方面进行了介绍。

Nice to see you again. I heard you went to hospital for a few days to undergo surgery.I hope everything’s OK.W: Yes, fine. I had something wrong with my stomach. I won’t go into detail, but it wasn’t serious.M: I really dislike going to a doctor or to a hospital.W: I think most people are a little nervous about it. I was really very, very nervous just before I had the operation, but the anesthetist (麻醉医生) gave me an anesthetic (麻醉的,感觉缺失的) and the next thing I remember was waking up after the operation.M: It must have really hurt afterwards.W: Well, the nurse gave me plenty of painkillers, but it did feel uncomfortable. I wasn’t permitted to eat anything for 48 hours. That was the worst thing.M: I bet you were ready for a thick juicy steak when you got out of hospital.W: I certainly was! However, the doctor gave me a list of food I couldn’t eat for another 72 hours, and steak was on the list!M: Is there any pain now?W: Not at all. I stopped taking painkillers after a couple of days.M: Did they take good care of you in the hospital?W: Oh, yes. The nurses were very kind, though they were strict about what I could drink. In the end, I just drank water and nothing else. Every one was very professional and I actually enjoyed some aspect of my stay.Questions 4~6A: Sandy, can you help me contact these people?B: Sure, what do you want me to tell them?A: Well, I need to confirm the time of their classes.B: OK, where can I find their telephone numbers?A: They are all listed here on this sheet of paper.B: Is it their home, office or cell phone number?A: Unless it’s marked differently, it’s their home number.

B: Where can I find their E-mail addresses?A: They should have them listed on their resumes.B: And if there aren’t any E-mail addresses?A: Then send them a SMS on their cell phones.B: OK.

You know what the topics are going to be, so prepare what you would like to say in advance.W: I often do, but I’m worried about the responses from other people.M: You have to be realistic. Not everyone is going to agree with you, but people will respect your opinion and they will respect the fact that you have contributed something to the discussion.W: I’m worried that what I say will not make sense.M: We could chat about the topic before class. I could check that what you want to say is logical and it would also give you a chance to practice speaking.W: That’s a good idea. What should I do if I am in two minds about a topic?M: That’s easy. Express both possibilities. People will think that you are pretty smart to be able to look at the topic from more than one angle.W: I didn’t realize that speaking in class could be so easy.M: The most difficult thing is being able to predict what other people will say. They will reply to your statements, but you can’t be sure now.SECTION B PASSAGES【听力原文】Questions 11~13Leonardo Da Vinci was born in 1452 in Tuscany. As early as 1466, he was working in a workshop. Then, in 1482 he moved to Milan. After the plague had swept the city of Milan in 1484-85, he turned his attention to town planning and made several designs for churches and other buildings. He moved to Florence, another city in Italy in 1500 where he painted the famous Mona Lisa in 1503. Then he returned to Milan. Between 1510 and 1515, after he hadbeen working as an architect and engineer to the French King Louis XII, he devoted himself to painting again and produced two great works St. Anne Mane & Child and St. John the Baptist. In 1515, the King of France invited Leonardo to live in France. He moved to a castle there where he spent his last years, carrying out his own research. He died in 1519.Questions 14~17Good morning, everyone. And welcome to the English for Academic Purpose Center. I’d like to begin by briefly introducing the services we offer here at our center. First of all, we have a wide range of language courses. In the first semester, we run an 8-week conversation class for students of non-English speaking backgrounds. We wish to improve their fluency, grammar and pronunciation in English. The course is held on Tuesdays between 12:30 and 1:30. So, that’s one hour once a week. Please enroll with the secretary before Friday this week. For those of you who are interested in developing your writing skills, we have a 6-week course which runs for 2 hours between 4 and 6 on Wednesday afternoons, beginning in Week One. They concentrate on the writing skills needed for assignments in the departments of economics and social sciences. Students must be enrolled in either of these departments. You probably not think about taking examinations yet. But later on, towards the end of the term, you might like to enroll in our examination skills class. The course runs for 5 weeks, and two hours in a week. The course dealswith the skills you need, in both written tests and oral examinations. It is not necessary to enroll before the course starts. Just turn up for the first class.Questions 18~20Death Valley is a land of beautiful but dangerous extremes. There are mountains that reach more than three thousand meters into the sky. There is a place called Badwater that is the lowest area of land in the Western Hemisphere. If there were water there, it would be eighty-six meters below the level of the ocean.Death Valley can be dangerously cold during the winter months. Storms in the mountains can produce sudden flooding on the floor of the valley.The extreme heat in summer has killed people in the past. It will continue to kill those who do not honor this extreme climate. Death Valley does not forgive those who are not careful.It is a good example of the violence of nature. However, it would be wrong to think that nothing lives there. The Valley is full of life. Wild flowers grow very quickly after a little rain. Birds, snakes and other animals always enjoy their stay.SECTION C NEWS BROADCAST【听力原文】Questions 21~22Protests have interrupted the annual general meeting in London of the oil giant BP, the first since last year’s oil rig (钻探设备) blast (爆炸) and huge oil spill (漏油,浮油) in the Gulf of Mexico.

Special ceremonies and moments of silence paid tribute to (称赞,表示敬意) the morethan 13,000 people who were killed and the more than 14,000 others who are still missing. Just a short time later, Japan was hit by another earthquake. There have been hundreds of these aftershock s (余震) since the quake on March 11th. Yesterday’s had a magnitude (大小,震级) of 6.6.

The Danish government says it will ask the United States to carry out lethal injections to stop using a drug produced in the US by a Danish company.Questions 27~28One of Hollywood’s biggest stars, Elizabeth Taylor, has died of congestive (充血的) heart failure in Los Angeles.

From Abuja, here’s Caroline Duffield.Goodluck Jonathan received nearly 23 million votes in the presidential election, while his rival General Muhammadu Buhari got just over 12 million.
