After they had been sitting there enjoying the sunshine for a few minutes, a young waiter, not much more than a boy, came to take their order. He spoke no English, but after a lot of laughter and pointing at the menu, they thought they had managed to make him understand that all they wanted was ice cream. There were several flavors*, lemon, chocolate, coffee, orange and vanilla* and they both chose coffee, "I love coffee ice cream," said Ana. After a little while the waiter returned. He was carrying a big tray, which he set down very carefully on the table in front of Edward and Ann. There were two cups of coffee and two plain ice creams on the tray. "We didn't order coffee," said Edward crossly*, "we ordered coffee ice cream. He ought to be able to understand simple English."

Every day after school they had gone down to the field behind the pub to see what was happening. First the men had put up tile big tent, and then moved in all the seats, and finally they had fixed the coloured lights round the outside of the tent.In another part of the field, the children watched as the animals were fed and exercised. Sometimes, to their delight, two young women stood on the horses' backs and galloped round and round. But the most exciting moment of all was when the trainer allowed them to watch him go into them lions' cage. The children were sure he would be attacked, but he came out again unhurt and smiling. At last the opening night came round. Then the most terrible thing happened; their mother forbade them to go because she said it was unkind to put animals in a circus. The children were unable to make her change her mind, and they had to sit at home while the music and lights in the field reminded them of what they were missing.

He thought he had reached a place called the Indies. In time, the terms American Indian and Indian became widely used. About 2,000,000 native Americans live in the United States today. Some Indians live on government lands called reservations*, or on tribal* lands. Others live in cities. Traditional culture remains strong in areas where large numbers of Indians live. But many native Americans worry that their cultural traditions will be lost as young people leave these areas for economic reasons. The economic situation of American Indians as a group is not good. About 50% of those who live on reservations have no jobs. Those who do have jobs earn less than other Americans. Most Indians hold low-paying unskilled jobs. Indians have many health problems and do not live as long as other Americans. But the situation is improving as more Indians are becoming educated. Today, most native Americans graduate from high school. At least 9% of all Indians 25 years old or older have finished college. The economic situation also has improved as native American tribes* create businesses on their lands. One example is the Pequot tribe of the northeast. The tribe owns and operates a hotel, gambling casino*, and a museum of its culture and history. Today, American Indians are trying to control their land without interference from the government. This includes control over hunting and fishingrights, and mining* operations. They are trying to protect their land from pollution. And they are taking legal action to regain lost lands or to receive payment for them. American Indians are trying to change their economic situation, improve their lives and honor* their culture.Exercise: Listen to the passage about the American Indians and choose the best answer to complete each of the following sentences. l.C 2.

You and seven million other tourists will fill Britain's capital city this season, jostling* each other along Oxford Street, getting lost on the Underground, staring at Buckingham Palace, and complaining about the food and the weather. What can you do when you're here? There are the obvious tourist attractions of royal London, the London of pageantry* and soldiers in fancy uniforms. There is historical London, with the ancient buildings and magnificent churches. A good introduction to all this can be found in the London Museum in the Barbican*. You can spend a lot of money, in shops from aristocratic* Knightsbridge* to democratic Marks and Spencer*, all of them anxious to receive travellers' cheques in almost any currency. There are many hotels at your service, and your chambermaid may Well be able to talk to you in your own language —though probably not in English, Restaurants are here by thehundred.

There's certainly no lack of entertainment. The British Theatre is world famous, and offers everything from Shakespeare to West End comedy*. There's a large numberof cinemas presenting films from all over the world. Every night of the week there are concerts. Classical or pop, take your choice.

When it rains (and it will rain) there are museums and art galleries to give you shelter— and they're free! When it's fine, take a boat trip along the River Thames, downstream to Greenwich* or upstream to Hampton Court*. You may be exhausted by London; you may be cheated in London; you may not be able to get a drink when you want one, thanks to the ridiculous licensing laws; you may get wet and catch a cold; but you're not likely to be bored.Exercise: Listen to the passage and choose the best answer to each of the following questions.I.C 7.

2023年12月英语六级听力原文及参考答案听力稿原文section AConversation 1气候变化和全球经济发展W: Professor Henderson could you give us a brief overview of what you do, where you work and your main area of research？M: Well the Center for Climate Research where I work links the science of climate change to issues around economics and policy。

Some of our research is to do with the likely impacts of climate change and all of the associated risks。

W: And how strong is the evidence that climate change is happening that it‘s really something we need to be worried about。

M: Well most of the science of climate change particularly that to do with global warming is simply fact。

But other aspects of the science are less certain or at least more disputed。

And so we‘re really talking about risk what the economics tells us is thatit’s probably cheaper to avoid climate change to avoid the risk than it has to deal with the likely consequences。

At last they found a dog care center which looked after dogs while their owners were away. The couple took Blackie there just before they left for their holiday, and sadly said goodbye to him. At the end of their holiday, they got back to England very late at night, and as they thought the center might be closed at that late hour, they decoded to wait until the next day before going to get Blackie. So the next morning Mr. Green got into his car and drove off happily to collect him. When he reached home with the dog, he said to his wife, “Do you know, dear, I don’t think Blackie can have enjoyed his time at the center very much. He barked all the way home in the car he wanted to tell me something.”as if h e wanted to tell me something.”Mrs. Green looked at the dog carefully and then answered,”You’re quite right, dear.

The other reason was that, although I was acquainted with a great number of new classmates, I feel uncomfortable communicating with them. Eventually I became silent. I seldom entered conversations with others. I was in low spirits. I didn’t truly know myself. At the end of the first semester I surprisingly found I did a poor job in the exams of almost all subjects. It was really a great shock to me. Then I decided to pluck up my courage and change my thinking, Now I spend several hours a day in the library to obtain new knowledge.

(10points) Everyone knows the value of money. If you have a lot of money, you can make yourself very comfortable by having a fine house to live in, fashionable clothes to wear and delicious food to eat. With money you can do whatever you like. Money is so important and so useful that people are naturally keen on possessing it. But money can also be a source of evil. For the sake of money, some do not care about their means of getting it. They will steal, gamble, cheat and even kill to get money, profiting at the expense of their victims. It is true that money can bring people happiness. With money the basic necessities can be provided for. With money the theatre and other places of entertainment can be enjoyed. But in my opinion the truly happy are those who make money through their work and live with their income. In short, money is important and useful but in itself it has little value if it does not give people real happiness. Part D Directions: You are going to hear three passages. Each will be read once.

He is studying at college because he is too intelligent for school. Nicholas has computer lessons at the West London Institute. He spoke well before he was one year old. At eighteen months he took telephone messages for his parents. At the age of two he began to learn French. The strange thing about Nicholas is that he taught himself to read before he could speak. His father said,“We knew immediately that he could read. When he could speak, he corrected my spelling.” When Nicholas went to school, his teachers just gave him pictures to color and toys to play with and didn’t have time to prepare special lessons for him. Nicholas tried two different schools, but he was bored and unhappy. Then his parents decided that he couldn’t stay at an ordinary school. But they had no idea what to do with him. Then the West London Institute offered to help. Nicholas spends some of his time there, and also studies at home. Now he reads newspapers every day, and he play the violin well. His father said, “Nicholas is our life. He is a clever child and we want to help him in every way.”Questions 26 to 29 are based on the passage you’ve just heard.26. Which adjective can best describe Nicholas? (b) 27. When did Nicholas learn to take telephone messages for his parents? (c) 28. What is Nicholas studying at college? (c) 29. Which of the following is true about Nicholas? (d) Passage 2Tom Johnson came to London from Scotland to start a new job as a hotel porter. He had rented a flat and was enjoying a simple but good life in London. However, it all ended suddenly when he because jobless and couldn’t pay the rent. Tom had to leave his rented home and found himself alone in a big city with no money or friends. After that, he had to beg for money in busy streets and sleep in parks. It was a sad and dangerous life indeed. Then one day his luck changed. He came across a man named Johnny Reid who opened a hotel and needed a porter. Johnny felt sorry for Tom and decided to give him a job as a porter and a room at his hotel. Tom was so excited. He said, “It’s nice to know that there are still kind people in the world. It is Johnny’s Kindness that saved me. Actually that’s a lesson for everyone. Some people think homeless people are lazy. W h y should we help them? Actually we don’t want to live on the streets, hy should we help them? Actually we don’t want to live on the streets, but we’re totally helpless. It’s so unpleasant especially when it’s cold and wet outside. So don’t be afraid to help someone in trouble. And please, don’t be rude or nasty to homeless people.”Questions 30 to 32 are based on the passage you’ve just heard.30. What happened when Tom lost his job? (c) 31. Who is Johnny Reid? (c) 32. What’s tom’s advice? (d) Passage 3There’s a lot of to learn about shopping. In my opinion not everyone is a good shopper. Some people spend a lot of time and money but bring back something not worth price they paid for it. Thus quarrels occur between husband and wives. So try to be a smart shopper. Here are some tips. First of all, before you go shopping, make a list of things that you are going to buy. It saves you time and keeps you from forgetting something. Secondly, try to locate where you can buy these things and find our prices. To do this, you can buy a local newspaper and read th e “sale” section in the classified advertisements. Once in the classified advertisements. Once you’ve found something that you want, call t he store immediately and make sure that’s still the store immediately and make sure that’s still there. Cheap things and things of value usually sell very quickly. So try to be the first one to reach the seller. Thirdly, compare the prices of the same product in different stores, either by telephoning or visiting them. Lastly, it’s Lastly, it’s generally cheaper to shop in chain stores and supermarkets, Shops that remain generally cheaper to shop in chain stores and supermarkets, Shops that remain open until quite late may charge rather higher prices in return for their longer hours for service. Questions 33 to 35 are based on the passage you’ve just heard.33.What does the passage mainly tell us?(b) 34.What does the speaker say we should do first before shopping?(d) 35.Where can we buy things cheap according to the passage?(c) 。

After buying some magazines to read on the journey, I made my way to the luggage office to collect the heavy suitcase I had leftthere three days before. There were only a few people waiting, and 1 took out my wallet to find the receipt for my case. The receipt did not seem to be where I had left it. I emptied the contents of the wallet, and railway tickets, money, scraps* of paper, and photographs tumbled* out of it; but no matter how hard 1 searched, the receipt was nowhere to be found.When my turn came, I explained the situation sorrowfully to the assistant. The man looked at me suspiciously as if to say that he had heard this type of story many times and asked me to describe the case. I told him that it was an old, brown-looking object no different from the many cases I could see on the shelves.The assistant then gave me a form and told me to make a list of the chief contents of the case. If they were correct, he said, I could take the case away. I tried to remember all the articles I had hurriedly packed and wrote them down as they came to me. After I had done this, I went to look among the shelves. There were hundreds of cases there and for one dreadful moment, it occurred to me that if someone had picked the receipt up, he could have easily claimed* the case already. This had not happened fortunately, for after a time, I found the case lying on its side high up in a corner. After examining the articles inside, the assistant was soon satisfied that it was mine and told me I could take the case away. Again I took out my wallet: this time to pay. 1 pulled out a ten-shilling note and the "lost" receipt slipped out with it. I could not help blushing*and glanced up at the assistant. He was nodding his head knowingly, as if to say that he had often seen this happen before, too!Exercise: Listen to the passage and choose the best answer to each of the following questions.l.C 2.

I had just taken my place in class, when I noticed a small shining coin a few feet away from my desk.I am sure it was not the desire for gain which prompted me to stoop and pick it up, for the coin was a farthing and almost completely worthless. But its newness attracted me, and the fact that I could not spend a coin of such small value made me want to keep it forever. As the teacher was talking to us, I pretended to drop a pencil and bent over. From that moment, the coin was mine.The farthing and I remained firm friends for years. Trousers wore out, but the coin survived. It lived to see short trousers become long ones; it accompanied me in my youth and early manhood. It joined the army with me during the war, and later came to the office every day when I became a civilian again.Every night when I emptied my pockets and placed their contents on my bedside table, the coin made its appearance. Sometimes, it would play hide-and-seek with me and make me dig deeply into my pockets. But sure enough, it was always there, trapped inside larger items, like a pen-knife, or sleeping in the folds of my handkerchief. It certainly kept strange company. When I was a boy, it would attach itself to sticky sweets, or get caught in pieces of wire. When I grew up, it took its place proudly beside the silver coins that jingled in my pocket. It had reason to be proud, for I am sure it knew that I would rather have lost every single silver coin I had than part with the precious little farthing. It did not shine any more, but at nighttime it would unfailingly arrive, last but smiling, and look up at me from my bedside table. One night, however, the coin was missing. I searched everywhere, but weeks passed and I did not find it. This time I realized sadly that it had gone for good and could only hope that it had found some nicer pocket to live in.Exercise: Listen to the passage and choose the best answer to each of the following questions.l.

It is about 2,200 meters above sea level.The mountains receive an average of seven-and-one-half meters of snow each winter.The Utah Olympic Park extends over 150 hectares of land. The Park has five areas for ski jump competitions. In warm weather, skiers train on special man-made jumps.An Olympic size track has been built for bobsleigh* and luge* competitions. It is one of only three such tracks in North America. The track is close to the ground and has fifteen turns. Its path is similar in shape to the land.The Utah Olympic Park will hold four major events during the 2002 Winter Games. They are the Nordic skiing*, bobsleigh, luge, and skeleton competitions. The skeleton event has not been seen at the Olympics since 1948. Officials expect it to be extremely popular next year. Athletes competing in the skeleton slide down the track on a luge sled. But they lie on their stomachs instead of their backs.The Utah Olympic Park can hold about 20,000 people to watch the ski jumping event. It can hold about 15,000 people to see the other events. The Utah Olympic Park already is used for national and international competitions. It also operates as a training center for the competitors. And, young people who wish to join the United States national teams train there.The Utah Olympic Park is open to the public during the summer andwinter months. Everyone is welcome to watch the athletes train and compete against each other. Visitors also can try some of the Olympic sports. This includes going down one of the ski jumps or riding on the bobsleigh or luge track.Exercise: Listen to the passage and choose the best answer to each of the following questions.l. B 2. C 3. B 4.

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.1.T hey are possibly boyfriend and girlfriend.2.In a restaurant.3."It doesn't really matter, does it?

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 slightlylarger 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 stolenstatuettes 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." Exercise A Pre-listening QuestionEvery 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.Exercise B Sentence DictationDirections: Listening to some sentences and write them down.

This guy is a dictator and so we have to seewhat he says." The president says the Iraqi leader has a choice to make: disarm peacefully or be disarmed by force: "If Saddam Hussein does not comply to the detail of the resolution, we will lead a coalition to disarm him. It is over. We are through with negotiations. There is no more time. The man must disarm. He said he would disarm. He now must disarm." Mr. Bush spoke with reporters while touring the Washington D.C. police department, a tour designed to highlight his plan to create a cabinet level Department of Homeland Security.

If Saddam Hussein agrees to disarm Iraq of all chemical, or biological or nuclear weapons programs and capability, then conflict would be avoided, and his duty is to cooperate fully with the inspectors to tell them exactly what material he has, to cooperate and comply with them in the eradication of that material."The prime minister said he wanted to speak directly to the Iraqi people to try to dispel* what he called myths that have arisen between Christians and Muslims.

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 courseof events in the region. He says they will visit suspected sites, conduct interviews with Iraqi scientists, ferret* out information and report back to the Security Council for its members to decide.As for US and British intelligence reports, which the Bush administration says proves that Iraq has banned weapons, Mr. Blix says he is not going into Iraq with pre-conceived ideas of what is there.The next test for Iraq will be December 8th, the deadline for Iraq to present a full accounting of its weapons programs. If Iraq presents, in effect, a blank sheet, Mr. Blix says, he would expect the United States to put its evidence on the table, so it can be verified.Iraq has persistently maintained it does not have the banned weapons. The latest such assertion came in a letter to the UN this week, in which Baghdad accepted the latest Security Council resolution setting out the parameters* for what experts say will be the most intrusive inspections in Iraq, so far.After the preliminary technical work starting Monday, Mr. Blix says, he expects the first wave of inspections to start November 27th. Two months later, he is required to report to the Security Council on Iraq's performance.Exercise ADirections: Listening to the news report and complete the summary.This news report is about Mr. Blix's weapons inspections in Iraq.Exercise BDirections: Listen to the news again and fill in the blanks with the missing words.Mr. Blix emphasizes that his inspectors will not determine the course of events in the region.
