After you hear a question, you must choose the best answer from the four choices marked A), B), C) and D).Passage OneQuestions 6 to 10 are based on the passage you have just heard.Script:Passage OneMany people have concerns about taking their cars on long trips, especially if their cars are getting on in years or mileage. The truth is, long trips are actually easier on your car than day-to-day driving, but a breakdown far from home can really destroy the fun. A few simple checks will help you to avoid many common problems.Two to four weeks before you go, get any major repairs done. If your car needs major repair or maintenance, do it at least one month before you go. That will allow plenty of time for any problems related to the repair to appear.Before you pack, give your car a good wash. Clean cars always seem to run better. Besides, who wants to travel in a dirty car? Make sure your tires are inflated to the proper pressure. Low pressure can be a problem. Follow the instructions for checking tire pressure in your owner's manual. You should also check the spare tire. Make sure it is fully inflated and that other important spare parts are in the trunk.Before you go, open your suitcases and take one last look. Ask yourself, do you really need all that stuff? If there's anything you can do without, leave it home. If you're carrying lots of heavy objects, position them forward in the trunk and divide the weight evenly side to side. Cars don't have unlimited carrying capacity, so don't overload.There is no guarantee that unexpected things cannot happen. But if you've followed these guidelines, you've avoided a lot of potential problems. Relax and enjoy your trip!6.People have concerns about driving on long trips ____ .A) if their cars are newly boughtB) if they have never driven on long trips beforeC) if their cars are quite oldD) if they haven't bought insurance for their carsScript: People have concerns about driving on long trips ____ .正确答案： C 学生答案：A得分：0 分7.When does one have to repair his car if it needs major repair?A) One to two weeks before one goes.B) Two to four weeks before one goes.C) At least one month before one goes.D) At least two months before one goes.Script: When does one have to repair his car if it needs major repair? 正确答案： C学生答案：C得分： 2 分8.Before you pack, what should you check the tires for?A) Hardness.B) Newness.C) Leaks.D) Pressure.Script: Before you pack, what should you check the tires for? 正确答案： D学生答案：D得分： 2 分9.How should you position the heavy objects in the trunk?A) Make them take as little space as possible.B) Divide the weight evenly.C) Separate them from side to side.D) Group them according to their types.Script: How should you position the heavy objects in the trunk? 正确答案： B学生答案：D得分：0 分10.If one has followed all these guidelines, ____ .A) a lot of problems will be prevented from happeningB) there will be no problem on the tripC) a lot of money has to be paidD) many useful things have to be left at homeScript: If one has followed all these guidelines, ____ .正确答案： A 学生答案：A得分： 2 分Passage Two Questions 11 to 15 are based on the passage you have just heard.Script:Before you fly to China, you should know that the national airline is Air China.

Here are some tips to help you pack your bags.1. Pre-trip planning: • Make a packing list to help you remember everything. Review it about a week before your trip. • Plan a time to go shopping for things you need for your trip. • Don’t pack the night before you travel. You will forget things when you’re in a hurry.2. Tagging luggage: • Before packing, put name tags on valuable items like cameras and cell phones. • Make sure that each piece of luggage, including carry-ons, has a luggage tag on it. • If you know your hote l’s address and phone number, put it on your luggage tags.3. Saving space: • Pack small items (socks, belts, etc.) inside your shoes. It uses the empty space and helps the shoes to hold their shape. • Pack your clothes in plastic bags. • If you are travel ing with a friend, plan your packing together. Share your alarm clock, toothpaste, or first aid kit.4. Your carry-on bag: • The most important items for your trip (passport, plane tickets, traveler’s checks, credit cards, keys, etc.) should go in your carry-on bag. Always keep them with you. • Keep your carryon bag small and light. Put bulky, heavy items in your check-in luggage. • Use soft bags, such as backpacks or shoulder bags, for carry-ons. They fit easily under the airplane seat, or into small overhead compartments.5. Other ideas: • Bring an empty bag for souvenirs from the trip. • Remember to pack a few rubber bands, safety pins and plastic bags. They can be very useful. • Bring some snacks such as nuts, cookies or dried fruit. You can eat them if you don’t have time for a meal. Sharing food is a great way to meet other travelers.Audio Track 3-1-10/Audio Track 3-1-11/Audio Track 3-1-12Going solo is the way to go!How do you usually travel? Do you go with a close friend or a group of friends? Do you join a tour group? Do you travel with your family?Have you ever imagined “going solo”? In the mid 1990s, it was estimated that 9 million Americans were planning a summer vacation alone. Since then, the number of solo travelers has increased. You may think that traveling alone would be scary or boring. Well, according to people who do it, that’s not exactly true. Solo travelers often have positive experiences: they make new friends, get to know themselves better, and can make their own schedule.There are many different things you can do on a vacation alone. Some solo travelers use the timeto learn or practice a sport such as golf, mountain climbing, or scuba diving. Others go and stay on a ranch and learn how to ride a horse. You can pretend to be a cowboy or a cowgirl for a day!You may not believe this, but some travelers like to study on their vacation. They even go to “vacation college” at a university or join a research team as a volunteer worker. It’s hard but satisfying work. You can “play scientist” for a week or two while you help someone with their project.For solo travelers of different ages and genders, there are many travel options. There are tours for women only and for people over the age of 60. And, of course, there are trips for singles who are looking for romance. One company offers trips that focus on fine dining —there is time for sightseeing during the day and for sharing a delicious meal with new friends at night.The next time you take a trip somewhere, why don’t you consider goin g solo?Bon voyage!Speaking & CommunicationAudio Track 3-1-131.

We’ll take the tent for shelter. We all agree a tent is ideal for camping in the forest.Two. We’ll also take some bottled water as we cannot be sure if the water in the forest is safe to drink.Three. We think it is very useful to bring a lighter. We can make a fire for barbecuing food and to keep us warm.Four. We all think a map is a must. We will need it to plan our route in and out of the forest. Five. We think it best to take a compass as it will help us navigate which way we are walking. We don’t want to get lost.Last and most important of all, we agree we’d better take a cell phone. We would use it to call someone if we encountered an emergency —it’s better to be safe than sorry.Video CourseVideo Track 3-1-1Dave: Before going on a trip I pay the bills, I empty the trash, and I give a house key to a friend.

They lost my luggage and I didn’t speak a word of English. I had t o use my hands to explain myself. People understood what I meant and they helped me out.Catherine: My recent trip to Africa was one of the most amazing trips of my life. This was my second trip to Tanzania, Africa. We visited a lot of villages, some very remote that we had to travel by helicopter. In Tanzania, it’s very different from America so there are no maps. So, even traveling in a helicopter, we didn’t really know where we were going to go. We didn’t really know the village names, so we just kind of had no destination and we got in the helicopter and just flew around. And if we saw some animals or some rooftops of hut houses, we said, “Let’s go there” and we just kind of landed.Dennis: I have a lot of funny experiences on the airline as a flight attendant. But one of the funniest I could recall was, there was this passenger who had a toupee and one of my flight attendants was serving … I think … she was serving food … and she had this tray.

While Sun-hee was talking to Mike on the phone, Claudia and Tara had some trouble preparing for the trip. First, Tara couldn’t find her bag and then Claudia didn’t know where her ticket was. Things got worse when Claudia couldn’t find her money and cell phone. But Sun-hee helped them out. She seemed to be totally relaxed because she had already finished getting ready. Sun-hee told Mike about all the errands she had done earlier that day. She had confirmed her flight, got traveler’s checks, changed her voicemail message, and paid the bills. Finally, Tara and Claudia were ready to go and Sun-hee checked to be sure they had everything. However, after they left, Sun-hee soon came running back in. Why? She had forgotten to take her ticket and passport!。

Script:Passage OneMany people have concerns about taking their cars on long trips, especially if their cars are getting on in years or mileage. The truth is, long trips are actually easier on your car than day-to-day driving, but a breakdown far from home can really destroy the fun. A few simple checks will help you to avoid many common problems.Two to four weeks before you go, get any major repairs done. If your car needs major repair or maintenance, do it at least one month before you go. That will allow plenty of time for any problems related to the repair to appear.Before you pack, give your car a good wash. Clean cars always seem to run better. Besides, who wants to travel in a dirty car Make sure your tires are inflated to the proper pressure. Low pressure can be a problem. Follow theinstructions for checking tire pressure in your owner's manual. You should also check the spare tire. Make sure it is fully inflated and that other important spare parts are in the trunk. Before you go, open your suitcases and take one last look. Ask yourself, do you really need all that stuff Ifthere's anything you can do without, leave it home. If you're carrying lots of heavy objects, position them forward in the trunk and divide the weight evenly side to side. Cars don't have unlimited carrying capacity, so don't overload.There is no guarantee that unexpected things cannot happen. But if you've followed these guidelines, you've avoideda lot of potential problems.

Script:Before you fly to China, you should know that the national airline is Air China. As is true of any flight, travelers should confirm their return flight reservations; otherwise they would have problems. Also, be prepared for along flight. A nonstop from New York to Beijing lasts 14 hours while a flight to Shanghai lasts up to 18 hours.There are four airport hubs within China: Beijing, Guangzhou Baiyun International, Shanghai Hongqiao and Shanghai Pudong. Each airport includes taxis, public and shuttle buses, duty free shops, banks, post offices, business and Internet facilities and bars and restaurants. Important to note is the departure tax, which is paid in Chinese currency, or RMB, only. Once you are in China, you can take many kinds of transportation like rail, sea and automobile. Railways are the major means of transportation throughout China. The trains are inexpensive, safe and well maintained operating between major cities. There are three types of trains, the Express option being the best of the three. There are four varieties of fare: hard seat, soft seat, hard sleeper and soft sleeper. Children under 3 feet tall travel free and those under 4 feet pay a quarter of the fare. Train travel is often a comfortable experience although it takes much time, due to the distance between major cities. National plane travel saves your time. Flights from Shanghai to Beijing, Hong Kong to Shanghai and Guangzhou to Shanghai are about 2 hours; however, the roundtrip travel costs 350 dollars. Although express train travel betweenthese cities ranges from 12 to 18 hours, the prices are much lower, between 15 to 30 dollars.11.It takes _____ to travel from New York to Shanghai by air.A) 14 hoursB) 18 hoursC) 24 hoursD) 40 hoursScript: It takes _____ to travel from New York to Shanghai by air.正确答案：B学生答案：B得分：2分12.Which one is NOT an airport hub within ChinaA) Beijing.B) Shanghai HongqiaoC) Shenzhen.D) Shanghai Pudong.Script: Which one is NOT an airport hub within China正确答案：C学生答案：C得分：2分13._____ types of fare are available if one travels in China by train.A) ThreeB) FourC) FiveD) SixScript: _____ types of fare are available if one travels in China by train.正确答案：B学生答案：C得分：0分14.How much does a child between 3 and 4 feet tall pay for atrain tripA) Nothing.B) A quarter of the fare.C) A third of the fare.D) Half of the fare.Script: How much does a child between 3 and 4 feet tall pay for a train trip学生答案：B得分：2分15.How much does a round trip from Hong Kong to Shanghai costA) About 200 dollars.B) About 250 dollars.C) About 300 dollars.D) About 350 dollars.Script: How much does a round trip from Hong Kong to Shanghai cost正确答案：D学生答案：D得分：2分Part II Oral Tasks ( 3 minutes )Section ADirections: In this section, you will hear several conversations.

He always looks so scared.Steve: And this time, let’s remember to empty the trash before we leave.Jenna: And we’ll give aw ay all the fresh food. Last year, there were black tomatoes and green meat in the refrigerator after our vacation.Steve: I made a note to myself: unplug the computer!Jenna: And I promise to turn off all the lights. The electric bill was terrible last time.Steve: Maybe we should write a list. Then we can use it again on our next vacation.Audio Track 3-1-8/Audio Track 3-1-9Tips for better packingAre you planning to travel for a weekend or several months, around the country or overseas? Here are some tips to help you pack your bags.1. Pre-trip planning: • Make a packing list to help you remember everything. Review it about a week before your trip. • Plan a time to go shopping for things you need for your trip. • Don’t pack the night before you travel. You will forget things when you’re in a hurry.2. Tagging luggage: • Before packing, put name tags on valuable items like cameras and cell phones. • Make sure that each piece of luggage, including carry-ons, has a luggage tag on it. • If you know your hote l’s address and phone number, put it on your luggage tags.3. Saving space: • Pack small items (socks, belts, etc.) inside your shoes. It uses the empty space and helps the shoes to hold their shape. • Pack your clothes in plastic bags. • If you are travel ing with a friend, plan your packing together. Share your alarm clock, toothpaste, or first aid kit.4. Your carry-on bag: • The most important items for your trip (passport, plane tickets, traveler’s checks, credit cards, keys, etc.) should go in your carry-on bag. Always keep them with you. • Keep your carryon bag small and light. Put bulky, heavy items in your check-in luggage. • Use soft bags, such as backpacks or shoulder bags, for carry-ons. They fit easily under the airplane seat, or into small overhead compartments.5. Other ideas: • Bring an empty bag for souvenirs from the trip. • Remember to pack a few rubber bands, safety pins and plastic bags. They can be very useful. • Bring some snacks such as nuts, cookies or dried fruit. You can eat them if you don’t have time for a meal. Sharing food is a great way to meet other travelers.Audio Track 3-1-10/Audio Track 3-1-11/Audio Track 3-1-12Going solo is the way to go!How do you usually travel? Do you go with a close friend or a group of friends? Do you join a tour group? Do you travel with your family?Have you ever imagined “going solo”? In the mid 1990s, it was estimated that 9 million Americans were planning a summer vacation alone. Since then, the number of solo travelers has increased. You may think that traveling alone would be scary or boring. Well, according to people who do it, that’s not exactly true. Solo travelers often have positive experiences: they make new friends, get to know themselves better, and can make their own schedule.There are many different things you can do on a vacation alone. Some solo travelers use the timeto learn or practice a sport such as golf, mountain climbing, or scuba diving. Others go and stay on a ranch and learn how to ride a horse. You can pretend to be a cowboy or a cowgirl for a day!You may not believe this, but some travelers like to study on their vacation. They even go to “vacation college” at a university or join a research team as a volunteer worker. It’s hard but satisfying work. You can “play scientist” for a week or two while you help someone with their project.For solo travelers of different ages and genders, there are many travel options. There are tours for women only and for people over the age of 60. And, of course, there are trips for singles who are looking for romance. One company offers trips that focus on fine dining —there is time for sightseeing during the day and for sharing a delicious meal with new friends at night.The next time you take a trip somewhere, why don’t you consider goin g solo?Bon voyage!Speaking & CommunicationAudio Track 3-1-131.

Let’s go.Audio Track 3-1-17We’ve decided to take these six items: the tent, some bottled water, the lighter, a map, a compass and a cell phone. The reasons are as follows.One. We’ll take the tent for shelter. We all agree a tent is ideal for camping in the forest.Two. We’ll also take some bottled water as we cannot be sure if the water in the forest is safe to drink.Three. We think it is very useful to bring a lighter. We can make a fire for barbecuing food and to keep us warm.Four. We all think a map is a must. We will need it to plan our route in and out of the forest. Five. We think it best to take a compass as it will help us navigate which way we are walking. We don’t want to get lost.Last and most important of all, we agree we’d better take a cell phone. We would use it to call someone if we encountered an emergency —it’s better to be safe than sorry.Video CourseVideo Track 3-1-1Dave: Before going on a trip I pay the bills, I empty the trash, and I give a house key to a friend.

They lost my luggage and I didn’t speak a word of English. I had t o use my hands to explain myself. People understood what I meant and they helped me out.Catherine: My recent trip to Africa was one of the most amazing trips of my life. This was my second trip to Tanzania, Africa. We visited a lot of villages, some very remote that we had to travel by helicopter. In Tanzania, it’s very different from America so there are no maps. So, even traveling in a helicopter, we didn’t really know where we were going to go. We didn’t really know the village names, so we just kind of had no destination and we got in the helicopter and just flew around. And if we saw some animals or some rooftops of hut houses, we said, “Let’s go there” and we just kind of landed.Dennis: I have a lot of funny experiences on the airline as a flight attendant. But one of the funniest I could recall was, there was this passenger who had a toupee and one of my flight attendants was serving … I think … she was serving food … and she had this tray. And suddenly turbulence happened, and she lost her balance …and her hand landed on the guy’s head, who had a toupee. When she caught her balance again, the toupee kind of shifted, so his sideburns were onhis forehead. And I had to control my laughter because you’re not allowed to laugh …Video Track 3-1-3Dennis: I have a lot of funny experiences on the airline as a flight attendant.

While Sun-hee was talking to Mike on the phone, Claudia and Tara had some trouble preparing for the trip. First, Tara couldn’t find her bag and then Claudia didn’t know where her ticket was. Things got worse when Claudia couldn’t find her money and cell phone. But Sun-hee helped them out. She seemed to be totally relaxed because she had already finished getting ready. Sun-hee told Mike about all the errands she had done earlier that day. She had confirmed her flight, got traveler’s checks, changed her voicemail message, and paid the bills. Finally, Tara and Claudia were ready to go and Sun-hee checked to be sure they had everything. However, after they left, Sun-hee soon came running back in. Why? She had forgotten to take her ticket and passport!。
