Not many women went down with the ship,but Mrs.Straus was one of the few women who did not survive for one simple reason:She could not bear to leaveher husband .This is how Mabel Bird,Mrs.Straus's servant , who survived the disaster, told the story after she was saved."When the Titanic began to sink, frightened women and children were the first ones loaded into lifeboats.Mr.and Mrs.Straus were calmand comforting other passengers,and helped many of them into the boats.Then, Mr.Straus begged his wife to get into the life boat with her servant an others.

Great!There go my vegetables.M:I guess so. But think aboutAfrica.Questions 7-10Have you heard enough about rain yet? Once again, torrential downpours seem to be dominating the weather stories of the day, and here in the U.K. is no exception!First of all,let's have a quick sum-up of the storm situation.Bonnie and Charley are still dominating the scene in central America,Bonnie, a tropical storm, is moving through the Gulf of Mexico towards Florida, and hurricane are gusting to 105mph at the time when this forecasting was prepared.But even with these tropical systems aside, there's plenty of wet weather elsewhere too. Turkey has had a downpour of thunderstorms during the last day or so, with 64mm of rain being recorded in Golcuk in just 16 hours. This is more than double the amount usually seen here during the whole month of August.Northwest Spain hasn't escaped, and neither have many areas of France. In fact, many western European countries had a few inches of rain from the weather fronts that are now plaguing the U.K.The main fronral band of rain moved its way northwards through England and Wales last night, giving over 46mm of rain in south Wales by morning. Although it then headed intoNorthern Ireland, northern England and southern Scotland, there have also been plenty of big showers developing behind it. Torrential downpours prompted the Met Office to issue Flash Warnings of Severe Weather due to the intensity of some of these showers.（注：可编辑下载，若有不当之处，请指正，谢谢!）。

You may be right about business, but how many people have lost their jobs because of computers?Computers have changed our lives, but I don't want my lifechanged.Arthur Haines: Excuse me, Miss Anderson. We're talking about our lives, not your life. The computer will affect everyone in the world.Records can be kept of everything we do. Records will be keptof all our private lives. In my opinion, the computer is thegreatest disaster of the 20th century.Phyllis Archer: Could I interrupt? Arthur Haines says the computer is a disaster, but the computer is a machine. It was invented bypeople; it is used by people. If the computer is a disaster,then people are a disaster.Compere: Thank you, Phyllis Archer. Thank you, panel. And thank you, Mrs. Moore.Task 2【答案】A.1) It includes a 9-inch TV screen, a keyboard with 46 numbers and characters on it, a printer, and two disk drives.2) It's all contained right on the floppy disk.3) It’s much better than a typewriter in that one can move words or sentences from place to place or make corrections or changes right on the screen, and never have to erase on paper.4) It can help him make a monthly budget for his household with electronic spreadsheet software.B.1) loads your program into the machine2) typewriter, typewriter,3) turning the computer on and loading a program4) the different things the program can do【原文】Narrator: For Harvey Van Runkle, it was love at first sight, or should we say, love at first byte? Really, it is 64,000 bytes—that'sthe size of the memory on his new BANANA-3 personal computer.It all happened by accident. His wife, Charlotte, had sent himout to buy a new toaster, when he found himself standing in frontof a computer display at the BANANA Computer Store. Salesman: Yes, ladies and gentlemen, this little computer is going to change your lives. Just consider the hardware: You have a 9-inchTV screen. That’s your video display terminal. You have akeyboard with 46 numbers and characters on it. You have a printerthat will give you paper printouts of your work in three colors.You have two disk drives—one inside the computer terminal ando ne outside. This computer can do anything! Now let’s have alittle demonstration. Who would like to try the new BANANA-3computer? You, sir. You look interested. Step right up and trythe BANANA-3.Harvey: What's a d-disk drive?Salesman: That's the part of the computer that loads your program into the machine.Harvey: Oh. What's a program?Salesman: The program? That's your software. That's the instructions.It's all contained right on this floppy disk here. Theinstructions on this disk tell the computer what to do. Harvey: Oh, you mean like my wife. She always tells me what to do. Salesman: Exactly. Now what type of program would you like? I have word processing, I have electronic spreadsheet...Harvey: What's word processing?Salesman: Word processing is using the computer like a typewriter. Butit's much better than a typewriter. You can move words orsentences from place to place or make corrections or changesright on the screen. You never have to erase on paper. It's awonderful little program! Would you like to try it, Mr... Harvey: Van Runkle. Harvey Van Runkle. I've never used a computer before...Salesman: It's easy. First we start up the machine, and then boot up a program.Harvey: Boot up?Salesman: That's computer talk for turning the computer on and loadinga program. There. Now we look at the menu.Harvey: Menu? But I just had lunch. I'm not hungry.Salesman: No, no. This is a program menu, not a restaurant menu. It shows the different things the program can do. For example, here wehave "file". If you select file, you can choose which of yourdocuments you want to work on. And here’s “edit”. This givesyou ways to correct your document.Harvey: Gee, this is great! There's only one problem.Salesman: What's that?Harvey: I don't have any documents. I'm a plumber.Salesman: But you have bills, don't you?Harvey: Yeah, but...Salesman: Well, with our electronic spreadsheet software, you can make a monthly budget for your household.Harvey: No. My wife, Charlotte, does that.Salesman: Well, now you can do it, Harvey.Harvey: I don't know...Salesman: And you have friends, don't you?Harvey: Yeah, well there's my brother-in-law Bob...Salesman: Great! You can write letters to Bob on your new BANANA-3 computer!Harvey: Okay. How much is it?Salesman: Never mind. Do you have a credit card?Harvey: Well, sure...Salesman: Great. Joe, get Harvey here signed up, will you? He wants a BANANA-3 with a printer and software. Okay, step right up, ladiesand gentlemen. This computer can do anything!Task 3【答案】A.1) They are important because they are able to measure quantities such as electricity and temperature.2) Digital computers.3) Only one person at a time can use them.4) It is because their owners do not spend enough time learning how to operate them efficiently.5) Each person who uses a minicomputer has a computer terminal that is connected to the minicomputer by interface wires. With the help of the operating system, the CPU is able to divide its time and perform for all the users.B.Similarities and Differences between Microcomputers andThere are two primary kinds of computers: analog computers and digital computers. Unless you are a scientist, you probably will not use analog computers. These computers are important because they are able to measure quantities such as electricity and temperature.In contrast, digital computers perform their tasks by counting. Some digital computers are built to help solve only a specific kind of problem. For example, digital computers that monitor airplanes flying in and out of airports are built only for that task. Most digital computers, though, can be used to help solve many kinds of problems. Among them, microcomputers and minicomputers are two kinds of common digital computers.Microcomputers, also called personal computers, are the newest computers. Many are about the size of a very small television set. Some, however, are so small and light that people can carry them easily on business trips. Because computer manufacturers produce an enormous amount of computer hardware, it is possible for anyone to own and use a microcomputer. Therefore, we now see these machines in many homes, schools, and businesses. There is one disadvantage to these computers, though. Only one person at a time can use them. Also, many people who buy microcomputers do not understand what these machines can and cannot do. Some experts say that almost half of all micro-computers are not used often because their owners do not spend enough time learning how to operate them efficiently. Like microcomputers, minicomputers are used in small businesses. However, they are larger than microcomputers and are used more frequently in large offices and businesses than in small businesses. Anotherdifference is that more than one person can use a minicomputer at the same time. We call this time-sharing. Some minicomputers can have more than a hundred people time-sharing them. Each person who uses a minicomputer has a computer terminal that is connected to the minicomputer by interface wires. But even though more than one person can use a minicomputer, the computer has only one CPU. With the help of the operating system, the CPU is able to divide its time and perform for all the users.Task 4【答案】A.1) It wasn't the typical low mechanical voice that sounded like a recordbeing played at too slow a speed. It sounded natural. It had charm to it.2) Lupa had once heard that even a sophisticated analog computer couldn't pick up certain subtleties in the English language, no matter how good the programming is.3) When Lupa stood up and walked around the room, it was evident to her that somewhere in the building, listening through an intercom was someone with a microphone.B.1) They're running a contest. The kids are supposed to name me. I'm dreading the whole thing, believe me.2) You know something; I thought you'd be different. Just once today I was hoping I'd get someone who wouldn't try to beat the program. 3) You wouldn't happen to know what day of the week September the fourteenth, 1321, fell on, would you?It was a Sunday; but how do you know whether I'm right? Thank you for visiting the computer exhibit.【原文】Lupa laughed. She liked the voice that had been selected for the computer. It wasn't the typical low mechanical voice that sounded like a record being played at too slow a speed. It sounded natural. It had charm to it."Do you have a name?" Lupa asked."Not yet," the computer answered. "They're running a contest. The kids are supposed to name me. I'm dreading the whole thing, believe me." Now Lupa thought this was clever, the way they had programmed the computer. She wondered if there was some way to screw up the program. She had once heard that even a sophisticated analog computer couldn't pick up certain subtleties in the English language, no matter how good the programming is, so she decided to give it a try."My paws give me pause," she said.The computer was silent."My paws give me pause," Lupa repeated. "It's a clause without claws."Lupa waited in silence for a response."You know something," the computer said. "I thought you'd be different. Just once today I was hoping I'd get someone who wouldn't try to beat the program."Lupa smiled. "This was marvelous," she thought to herself. "They'd thought of everything.""Sorry," she said. "Mi dispiace.""Ah, you speak Italian," the computer said with some sarcasm."Qui, d'accord," Lupa answered. "C'est vrai.""And French, too. Your French is better than your Italian. Though neither one is great. Now, if you'll excuse me, I have to shut down. It's closing time."Lupa stood up and walked around the room. It was evident to her that somewhere in the building, listening through an intercom was someone with a microphone. She thought about how to test for this."You wouldn't happen to know what day of the week September the fourteenth, 1321, fell on, would you?" Lupa asked."It was a Sunday," the computer answered, "but how do you know whether I'm right? Thank you for visiting the computer exhibit."Task 5【答案】A.1) b) 2) c)B.1) F 2) F 3) F 4) THello. I think we can begin now if you're ready. Um, today I want to talk to you about computers, about the impact of computers on how we talk, on the ways we talk. Now of course we all know that computers have changed our lives in many ways. Stop and think for a minute about how we use computers in our everyday life. It's hard to think of anything we do that hasn't been changed by computers. For example, computers allow us to get money directly from our bank accounts at cash machines. At hospitals, computers help doctors understand what is wrong with patients. We can usecomputers to help us decide which color to paint our houses, which hair styles to have, or which dresses or suits would look good on us--lots of professional and personal uses. Computers are simply a part of our lives, and, I think it is safe to say, they will continue to be. What I'd like to look at today is how the use of computers has had an impact on our language--how computers have changed the expressions we say, the words we use.First, let me give you some examples. These are examples from English that I'd like you to think about. The first example is this. Someone at an office says, "We'd like to have the project online by next Monday." In computer talk "online" means started or working. So this statement means that we'd like to have the project started and going by next Monday.The second example is from a discussion or seminar. Someone might say, "Let's take this discussion offline until tomorrow." To take a computer "offline" means to disconnect it or take it out of the system. What do you think it means to take a discussion offline? To take a discussion "offline" means to stop talking about it. This example means "let's stop discussing this now and talk about it tomorrow."The third example is: "I'll try to interface my plans with yours." To "interface", in computer talk, means to do something so that different computer parts or software can work together. So "I'll try to interface my plans with yours" means that "I'll try to change my plans to fit with yours." People still say, of course, "I'll try to change my plans to fit with yours." But now we might also start to hear people say, "I'll try to interface my plans with yours," or "Let's see if we can interface our schedules so that we can meet next week."Let’s try one more example. Our fourth example might take place at home. Someone says,” I just can’t access where I left my car keys.” In computer talk to “access” something m eans to make information a vailable. If I can’t access where I left my keys, I don’t have this information available for me to use. What would be another way to say this? Of course, we could also say, “I can’t remember where I put my keys.”Task 6【答案】1) Cyber ethics.2) It will focus on teaching educators how to teach their students cyber ethics.3) Because it’s not done verbally so that people can overhear it; they think it’s anonymous on the Internet.4) She was a former principal and an adjunct professor at MarymountUniversity, teaching curriculum development and technology in the classroom.5) Young computer users do not see hacking, threats, cyber talking,Intellectual Property Rights violations and virus distribution as crimes.6) She said that it is something that needs to be instructed as routine curriculum, and student should know that these behaviors are as unacceptable in cyberspace as in the physical realm.【原文】Although schools are doing a better job at teaching children how to use the Internet, they are not addressing cyber ethics. "Cyber Ethics: Teaching Responsible Use of Technology" will focus on teaching educators how to teach their students cyber ethics.When typical crimes are committed on the Internet, students do not see them as a crime, said Cherie Geide, the conference director."They don't see anything wrong with it because they see it as a prank. It's more unacceptable to do it verbally where people can overhear it. They think it's anonymous on the Internet," said Geide, a former principal and an adjunct professor at Marymount University, teaching curriculum development and technology in the classroom.Geide said young computer users do not see hacking, threats, cyber talking, Intellectual Property Rights violations, such as in software or music, and virus distribution as crimes."This is something that needs to be instructed as routine curriculum," she said, "that this behavior is as unacceptable in cyberspace as in the physical realm.Task 7【答案】A.1) It's Microsoft's SANTA that the kids can't resist; it's the ultimatesoftware with a traditional twist—recommended by no less than the jolly old elf, and on the package, a picture of Santa himself.2) Father did last-minute Internet shopping; Mum and I had just settled down for a long wint er’s nap.B.1) not a creature was stirring, except father's mouse.

The computer was humming; the icons were hopping, as father did last-minute Internet shopping.The stockings were hung next to the modem with care in the hope that Santa would bring new software. The children were nestled all snug in their beds, with visions of computer games filling their leads.The letters to Santa had been sent out by Mum, to santatoyshop.northpole., which now had been re-routed to Washington State where Santa's workshop had been moved by Bill Gates. All the elves and the reindeer had had to skedaddle to flashy new quarters in suburban Seattle.Alter living a life that was simple and spare, Santa now finds he's a new billionaire; with a shiny red Porsche in place of his sleigh, and a house on Lake Washington just down the way from where Bill has his mansion. The old fellow preens in black Gucci boots and red Calvin Klein jeans.No more dolls or tin soldiers or little toy drams will be under the tree, only compact disk ROMs with the Microsoft label. So spin up your drive from now on, Christmas runs only on Windows 95.It's Microsoft's SANTA that the kids can't resist; it's the ultimate software with a traditional twist—recommended by no less than the jolly old elf, and on the package, a picture of Santa himself."Get 'em young, keep 'em long" is Microsoft's theme; and a merger with Santa is a marketer's dream. "To the top of the NASDAQ! To the top of the Dow! Now dash away! Dash away! Dash away—wow!"And Mum in her handkerchief and me in my cap, had just settled down for a long winter's nap. When out on the lawn there arose such a clatter, the whirr and the hum of our satellite platter. As it turned toward that new Christmas star in the sky, the SANTALITE owned by the Microsoft guy. As I sprang from my bed and was turning around, my computer turned on with a Jingle-Bells sound.And there on the screen was a smiling Bill Gates next to jolly old Santa, two arm-in-arm mates. And I heard them exclaim in voices so bright, have a Microsoft Christmas, and to all a good night!Task 8【答案】A.1) You would need a computer because of its "memory" and speed; a computer can consider more factors than a person can.2) The reservation clerk uses a machine to record information about where you want to go and the flight number of the plane that will take youto your destination.3) The computer not only determines what seats are available at what prices, but it also prints the tickets at the same time.B.1) there is a limit to the number of considerations the human mind can2) analyzing this factor in relation to information about the business that has already been programmed3) in which computers are being4) whether or not there is space for youC. See the last paragraph but one in the script.【原文】Suppose you are a manufacturer of bicycles. You are trying to decide whether or not to build a larger factory or to buy more machines. You could just say to yourself, "Business has been good. We've sold a lot of bicycles recently, so I think we ought to expand our plant."Or you could consider such questions as the following: How much would the changes cost? Can the bicycle-riding population be expected to increase or decrease? Many such questions would have to be answered, but there is a limit to the number of considerations the human mind can take into account.In a situation like this, you would need a computer. Because of its "memory" and speed, a computer can consider more factors than a person can. Does the bicycle manufacturer wonder how the weather will affect bicycle sales? The computer can tell him by analyzing this factor in relation to information about the business that has already been programmed into the computer.This is just one of many situations in which computers are being used today. This new servant of man is only about twenty-five years old, but it has already changed the lives of more than 200 million Americans. Wherever the citizen turns, he finds a computer working.Computers are used when one reserves space on an airplane. Walk into any airline office. Before selling you a ticket, the reservation clerk uses a machine that looks like a typewriter to record information about where you want to go and the flight number of the plane that will take you to your destination. This information is sent instantly to a central computer that may be many kilometers away from the airline office. Within seconds, the computer informs the clerk whether or not there is space for you on that plane.Such reservation systems are now in increasing use. They are also employed by hotels, by -panics that rent cars, and by offices that selltickets to theaters and sports events. The computer not only determines what seats are available at what prices, but it also prints the tickets at the same time.When computers are used in the way just described, some part of the system can actually be seen. Usually what one sees is a machine that looks like a typewriter; it is called a computer terminal. But computers are also used in unseen ways. For example, they determine how much time there should be between traffic signals to prevent traffic problems and to keep millions of cars moving in an orderly flow. When you buy an automobile, a factory process that is controlled by a computer enables you to obtain a car with your own choice of colours and special features in just a few weeks' time. In medical laboratories, computers have reduced the errors in testing, and they have saved doctors countless hours of work. Before long, medical histories of all Americans will be kept in computer "banks". If a person becomes ill far from his home, local doctors will be able to get his medical record immediately. In science, the computer has performed in minutes experiments which would have required thousands of hours of work by human hands and minds.The United States is not the only country affected by the "computer revolution". All the major countries of the world have computers, and the developing countries are increasingly aware that computers play a big part in their economic advancement.Task 9【答案】A. 1) a) 2) b) 3) c)B. 1) T 2) F 3) FC.1) potential criminals: Computer crime2) using less obvious and less easily remembered passwords that allow access to3) limit the user's access to information as well as the operations the userD.Courts are being tougher and computer security is improving.

They are punishing computer criminals more severely. They are trying to send a strong message to potential criminals: Computer crime is serious. If you're caught doing it, you'll be punished. This is seen as a way of preventing hacking.Computer security is getting more sophisticated. It's being improved by using less obvious and less easily remembered passwords that allow access to systems. These passwords should be given to the minimum number of people.Access-control software is becoming more common. This software limits the user's access to information as well as the operations the user can perform. So, for example, access control software might only let users read certain files or programs, but not let them input data, and may keep them out of other files entirely.Then there are "dial back" systems that ask the user or caller for a password. The system then checks the password in a directory and calls the user back at his or her telephone number. This stops hackers who are calling from another number from gaining access to the system.Scrambling devices are also being developed by computer engineers. These devices scramble messages so that hackers can't understand them. Data can be unscrambled and used only if the scrambling key is known by the user. Scrambling is a very effective way of protecting information.Audit trail software is also now available. Audit trails monitor the use of a computer and alert owners to any attempt to enter their computer system. It is usually possible to identify any user who gained access to the system and when the access occurred, making it possible to trace the hacker.Well, those are some of the major things that are happening at the present time in order to decrease computer crime. None of them is completely satisfactory, but together they are certainly helping. These changes, as well as the improvements that are certain to come, should influence people to stop hacking by making it less profitable and more risky.Task 10【原文】"The astronauts are returning to earth at exactly 5:24. Splashdown will be in the Pacific, 427ciles west of Hawaii."You have often heard announcements like this on television. Scientists can tell us exactly when pace-capsule will arrive on the moon, for instance, and exactly when it will return. They can calculate things like this to the nearest second. How do they do it? Well, of course, they use mathematics. We can all do simple sums on paper, but we must use computers for extremely difficult calculations. Perhaps you have seen mechanical calculating machines in banks and offices. Computers aren't mechanical. They don't have wheels and gears in them. Instead, they work on electrical circuits and can do difficult calculations at tremendous speed. They can work 100 million times faster than the human mind!。

In ancient times they did not travel for pleasure but to find new places where their herds could feed, or to escape from hostile neighbors, or to find more favorable climates. They traveled on foot. Their journeys were long, tiring, and often dangerous. They protected themselves with simple weapons, such as wooden sticks or stone clubs, and by lighting fires at night and, above all, by keeping together.Being intelligent and creative, they soon discovered easier ways of travel- ling. They rode on the backs of their domesticated animals, they hollowed outtree trunks and, by using wooden paddles, were able to travel across water.Now we travel, not from necessity, but for the joy and excitement of seeing and experiencing new things. This is still the main reason why we travel today.16. What was the purpose of men's traveling in ancient times? (B)17. According to the passage, which of these statements is not true? (D)18.

Human beings have the ability to express their actions, feelings and ideas through words. They can also write words down in order to communicate past events and to send messages to people far away.Even though some birds have learned to repeat words, they do not understand the meaning of the words, and therefore they cannot use them to communicate ideas.How did man first learn to speak? Perhaps we shall never know. However,we do know that as man's knowledge increased he needed to use more sounds in order to express a greater number of feelings and ideas. It became necessary for him to communicate about a greater number of things. He began to make more and more different sounds, and gradually he put these sounds together to form, first, words, then groups of words, and then sentences. In different parts of the world, people developed their own systems of sounds and words. Today, we call these systems "languages".There are now about five thousand different languages and dialects in the world, and each of them contains many thousands of words.16. Why can't some birds use words to communicate ideas though they have learned to repeat them? (A)17. How did human beings first learn languages? (A)18.

Some of (21) the greatest men in history have thought about the problem. One of these, for example, was (22) the great Italian artist, Leonardo da Vinci. In the sixteenth century he (23) made designs for machines that would fly. Among these designs (24) there was actually one for a helicopter. But these things (25) were never built.Throughout history other less famous men (26) have wanted to fly. A typical example was a man (27) in England 800 years ago. He made a pair of wings from chicken feathers. Then he (28) fixed them to his shoulders and jumped into the air (29) from a tall building. He did not fly very far. Instead, he fell to the ground and (30) broke every bone in his body.Unit 5Part A1. M.I think this history course is interesting, but it's very difficult.

If they didn't pass, they would have to take them again in September. There were usually a few who failed, but Rosy was determined not to be one of them. She had worked hard all year, but just before the exams she was working so hard that her sister Betty was worried about her. She was staying up too late. The night before the first exam, Betty insisted that Rosy should have an early night and take a sleeping pill. She promised to wake her in the morning.As she was falling asleep, Rosy was worried that she might oversleep. Her mind kept jumping from subject to subject. At last, with the help of the pill, she fell asleep. In no time at all, she was sitting in the examination hall, looking at the paper. She couldn't answer any of the questions. Everyone round her was writing pages and pages. However hard she thought, she couldn't find anything to write about. She kept looking at her watch. Time was running out. There was only an hour left. She started one question, wrote two sentences, gave up and tried another one. With only half an hour left she wrote another two sentences. By this time she was so worried that she started crying. Her whole body shook. It shook so much that it woke her up. She was still in bed and it had oil been a terrible dream. A minute later, Betty called her name.16.

When he died in 1931, Americans wanted to (22) show their greatest respect for him. One suggestion was that the nation (23) take a minute or two of total blackout. All electric power (24) would be cut off in homes, streets and factories. Perhaps this suggested plan (25) made Americans realize fully what Edison and his inventions meant to them. (26) Electric power was too important to the country. Cutting it off for even a short time (27) would have led to complete confusion. A blackout was (28) out of the question. On the day of Edison's funeral, many people (29) silently dimmed their lights. In this way they remembered the man who had done (30) more than anyone else.Unit 6Part A1.

Y our symptoms seem to point to migraine. As you probably know, there’s no direct or permanent cure for it but we can relieve the pain while you are having the attacks. For instance, I can arrange for you to have an injection when you get the headaches. In the meantime I can give you some painkillers which should help. Anyway, see how you get on with these and if they don’t seem to help, come back and see me again.Questions 23 to 25 are based on the conversation you have just heard.23. What does the patient mainly complain about?24. What does the doctor say about the illness?25. What would the patient do to deal with her illness?Section B:Directions:In this section, you will hear 3 short passages. At the end of each passage, you will hear some questions. Both the passages and the questions will be spoken only once. After you hear a question, you must choose the best answer from the four choices marked A ), B ), C) and D ). Then mark the corresponding letter on Answer sheet 2 with a single line through the centre.Passage One:Among all the malignancies, lung cancer is the biggest killer: more than 100,000 Americans a year die of the disease. Giving up smoking is one of the obvious ways to reduce the risk, but another answer may lie in the kitchen. According to a new report, even heavy smokers may be protected from developing lung cancer by a simple dietary measure: a daily portion of carrots, spinach or any other vegetable or fruit containing a form of vitamin A called carotene.Since 1957, a team of American researchers has monitored the dietary habits and medical histories of 2,000 middle-aged men. Other studies of animals and humans have suggested that vitamin A offers some protection against lung cancer. The correlation seemed logical, since Vitamin A is essential for the growth of the tissue that lines the airways of the lungs.Questions 26 to 28 are based on the passage you have just heard.26. How many Americans die of lung cancer each year?27. What is carotene?28. What can you infer from the passage?Passage Two:The oldest stone buildings in the world are the pyramids. They have stood for nearly 5000 years, and it seems likely that they will continue to stand for thousands of years yet. There are over eighty of them scattered along the banks of the Nile, some of which are different in shape from the true pyramids. The most famous of these are the ‘Step’ pyramid and the ‘Bent’ pyramid Some of the pyramids still look much as they must have been done when they were built thousands of years ago. Most of the damage suffered by the others has been at the hands of men who were looking for treasure or, more often, for stone to use in modern buildings. The dry climate of Egypt has helped to preserve the pyramids, and their very shape has made them less likely to fall into ruin. These are good reasons why they can still be seen today, but perhaps the most important is that they were planned to last forever.Questions 29 to 31 are based on the passage you have just heard.29. How old are the pyramids?30. What is true about some of the pyramids?31. Why do the pyramids remain well preserved?Passage Three:Now and again I have had horrible dreams, but not enough of them to make me lose my delight in dreams. To begin with, I like the idea of dreaming, of going to bed and lying still and then, by some queer magic, wandering into another kind of existence. As a child I could never understand why grown-ups took dreaming so calmly when they could make such a fuss about any holiday. This still puzzles me. I am puzzled by people who say they never dream and appear to have no interest in the subject. It is much more astonishing than if they said they never went out for a walk. Most people--or at least more Western Europeans----do not seem to accept dreaming as part of their lives. They appear to see it as an irritating little habit, like sneezing or yawning. I have never understood this. My dream life does not seem as important as my waking life, if only because there is far less of it, but to me it is important.Questions 32 to 35 are based on the passage you have just heard.32. What is the speaker’s attitude to dreams?33. What does the speaker feel when people say that they do not dream?34. According to the speaker, what is most Western Europeans’ attitude todreams?35. How does the speaker compare his dream life and waking life?Section C: Compound Dictation:Directions:In this section, you will hear a passage three times. When the passage is read for the first time, you should listen carefully for its general idea. When the passage is read for the second time, you are required to fill in the blanks numbered from 36 to 43 with the exact words you have just heard. For blanks numbered from 44 to 46 you are required to fill in the missing information. For these blanks, you can either use the exact words you have just heard or write down the main points in you own words. Finally, when the passage is read for the third time, you should check what you have written.The most common form of (36) entertainment in the U.S. is television. Nearly everyone watches television at some (37) regular time in their daily lives, (38) whether in the morning, at night or on (39) weekends. Most (40)families have color televisions and many have more than one set.Since its (41) beginning, the television industry in the U.S. has been (42) controlled by three companies. Those companies have formed networks of television stations in cities across the country. The three national (43) networks are ABC, American Broadcasting Company, CBS, Columbia Broadcasting System and NBC, National Broadcasting Company. (44) Each network has news features, .dramatic presentations, comedies and sports events. Each network competes for a larger percentage of the television audience by trying to present programs with wide popular appeal. The programs are financed by advertising. Companies pay the television networks to display their products on television.(45) The more popular a program, the higher the network can charge a company for commercials during the program. There is also a public television network. It has no commercials. Instead it receives financial support from the government, some private corporations and individual donations.Recently, a new type of television network has been gaining popularity. These networks are called cable television. (46) Cable television companies sell television programming directly to the public. The viewer pays a monthly fee to the company. The company installs a special line to his television set to receive the programs which he has paid the company to watch.。
