Part I Writing

1. For this part, you are allowed 30 minutes to write a letter to express your

thanks to one of your friends who helped you most when you were in difficulty. You

should write at least 120 words but no more than 180 words.

正确答案:Dear Li Ming, I’m writing this letter to express my deep thanks

to you for helping me out when I failed in my first College Entrance Exam. It is

no exaggeration that it was the worst time in my life when I completely lost faith and

began to abandon myself. Then you came to encourage me not to give up. It was

you who convinced me that the failure of College Entrance Exam should not be the

end of my efforts but the beginning, and that I should pull myself together and give

myself a second chance: otherwise, I would become a real loser. Thanks to such a

frank friend as you, I regained my confidence, and finally fulfilled my college dream.

Thanks again, from the bottom of my heart, my dear friend. Best wishes!

Yours sincerely, Mary

Part II Listening Comprehension

Section A

听力原文: You probably think college students are experts at

sleeping,(1-1)but parties, preparations for tests, personal problems and general stress

can rack a student’s sleep habits, which can be bad for the body and the mind. Texas

Tech University is even offering a class called Improving Your Sleep

Habits.(1-2)People suffering from sleep-loss are at an increased risk from obesity,

psychological problems and car crashes. Students who don’t get enough sleep have

poorer attendance and lower grades. On top of all that,(2)a new study published in the

journal Learning and Memory finds you are probably better off sleeping than making

last-minute preparations for a test. Two hundred college kids were taught to play some

unfamiliar video games. Subjects who learned the games in the morning lost some

skills when they played again 12 hours later, but they did much better after getting a

good night’s sleep. So if you really want to do your job well, don’t forget to get some

sleep.Questions 1 and 2 are based on the news report you have just heard.1. What is

the news report mainly about?2. What is the finding of the new study published in the

become almost as much a topic for conversation in Britain as the traditional

complaining about the weather. Meanwhile, there are complaints that poor service at

London’s major airports is discouraging foreigners from doing business in Britain.

major airports, including the three main ones serving London.(3)The Competition

Commission is now to investigate whether the British Airports Authority needs to sell

off some of its assets. The idea is the competition between rival operators will lead to

better service at airports.(4)The British Airports Authority, recently bought by a

Spanish company, says the root cause of the problem is not the ownership structure,

but a lack of runway and terminal capacity, which is addressing through a program of

heavy investment.Questions 3 and 4 are based on the news report you have just
