The hidden reason behind this is not hard to analyze as there’s a growing awareness for the authorities regarding the urgency of popularization of culture, knowledge and history with every average person in our society. Only wi th free access to this live ‘database’, can most people fully enjoy what museums could offer to them.However, free admission to museums might lead to some social problems as well. The most obvious problem is that it might give museums a very heavy economic burden which directly impedes the sustainable development of these organizations. As a result, our government has to work out other ways to collect funds from different channels, which might be difficult to operate or control. On the other hand, free admission attracts too many visitors,some of which might not be well-purposed and do some conscious or unconscious damage to the valuable treasures which used to be well-preserved in the museums.As a university student, I am in favor of the free-admission conduct. Yet it is proposed that some measures should be taken to solve the potential problems caused by it. For example, museums can make some regulations to guide the behavior of visitors or set some ‘closed’ days for museums for regular maintenance. Only in this way can free-admission to museums become a long-lasting phenomenon and have sustainable development.改错参照答案：（Ⅰ）1. rest → remaining2. therefore → however3. and → but4. to → for5. companion → company6. times ∧ to → not7. that → which8. low → lower9. the →／10. to → /（Ⅱ）1．that→which2．danger→endanger 3．Although→Since4．hour→an hour5．with→without6．work→working7．can adjust→can not adjust 8．fill→filling9．by→for10．too→either（Ⅲ）1．lowly→low2．likely→alike3．writing→written4．of→from5．of→for6．They→It7．that→those8．contains→在contains前加it9．like→unlike10．if→unlessMan is the soul of the universe.人是万物之灵。

(Q1)The International Union for the Conservation of Nature (UICN) has raised concerns after the poisonous fish was spotted in the water around Turkey, Cyprus and the eastern Mediterranean. Native to the South Pacific and Indian Ocean, the potentially deadly fish has poisonous hooks and a painful sting capable of killing people. Although fatalities are rare, the stingscan cause extreme pain and stop people breathing. The fish, often known as Devil Firefish, is a highly invasive species.And environmentalists fear its arrival could endanger other types of marine life. (Q2)After being spotted in the Mediterranean, a marine scientist says, “The fish is spreading, and that’s a cause for concern.”Q1: What is reported in the news?Q2: What is the environmentalists’concern of the spread of Devil Firefish in the Mediterranean?文章主题：地中海遭遇外来生物入侵。

名师听说读写全解惑——听力篇1．CET的听力是英音，能听懂VOA SE，但听四六级还是听不懂，这个问题出在哪儿呢？陈老师：首先，CET的听力不是英音，而是一个人读英音一个人读美音，交替出现，从而考察考生对两大发音体系的综合听力理解能力。

其次，VOA SPECIAL是美音，所以自然和英音不能匹配，且VOA SPECIAL的语速比CET BAND4的语速略慢，因此自然会有差距。

再者，VOA听力从内容角度而言与CET考试听力的内容还是有一定差距的。

所以对于考前复习而言，更好的还是使用真题进行听力训练。

2．四六级词汇的书都背了，但做听力的时候还是反应不过来，怎么办？姜老师：做听力最关键的是把背过的词汇用耳朵听出来，否则背再多的单词也是没有用的。

所以建议在听的时候同时看文字答案，最好还大声的跟读，这样的效果是最好的。

3. 听力的句子好复杂，前听后忘，怎么办？刚明白过这句话，但后面已经过去好几句了，怎么办？徐老师：出现这样的听力问题，表面上看，也许是你的记忆力不够好。

但是，如果你回想一下自己在使用母语（中文）时的感受，你就会觉得：同样是要记住一个句子的意思（不是句子本身），中文的意思你就可以记住，但是英语的意思你就记不住。

因此，你的问题就不在于意思记不住，这其实体现出两方面可能的原因。

一方面，你的语音输入速度可能比较慢，也就是说，你哪怕是听个别单词，反应时间也相对来说比较长，这样的话，你听句子，尤其是长难句的时候，就会觉得自己的听力水平捉襟见肘，无法应对。

处理语音信息的时间一长，无论是中文的意思还是英文的意思你都是记不住的，毕竟人的记忆力都是有限的。

另外一方面，你的阅读速度也可能比较慢，也就是说，当你有了语音输入以后，将已经输入的语音信息转化为文字信息或者是文章信息的处理速度比较慢，那么这样的话，当你遇到比较大量的已经输入的语音信息需要处理时，就会出现文字理解滞后的现象。

如果是第一种可能性，那么我的建议是你可以跟读一些听力材料，这样来建立起你的听觉和视觉的联系，也就是说，你可以马上把“听到的”信息转化为“看到的”信息。

【参考范文】Overreliance on One’s Mobile PhoneThe picture vividly illustrates a funny dialogue between a boy student and his math teacher. The boy is required to come up with the result of the equation on the blackboard. Instead of working it out on his own, he chooses to turn to the relative math app on his mobile phone.It’s widely acknowledged that students’ overreliance on mobile phones does much harm to their study. Firstly, it takes the place of students’ brainpower, undermining students’ thinking ability. Secondly, it corrupts students’ interest in the process of working out a problem by himself, leading them to the point that they show little enthusiasm in acquiring new knowledge. Finally, it makes students lose their competitiveness in the real world, unable to compete with students who really learn many skills by thinking, reasoning and most importantly by interacting with their teachers and peers.No doubt, overusing mobile phones should be limited in particular in the process teaching and learning in classroom. Only by systematic training of their brain and constant practice by themselves can they accomplish maturity and obtain skills necessary for success in their future life.第二部分听力理解【答案速查】【1-5】 D C A B C【6-10】 D C A D A【11-12】 C C B A C【16-20】 A B C C D【21-25】 C C A A B【26】vital 【27】battle 【28】divert 【29】usage 【30】devices【31】phenomenon 【32】community 【33】electronic 【34】similarly 【35】be beneficial for【听力原文】Section A【1】M: Father’s Day is around the corner and I’m thinking of buying a present for my dad. Any idea? I heard could get wonderful things by visiting online shopping websites.W: Yes, that’s true. If you check on some websites, there’ll be a top ten list of popular products. Then you’ll find one gift for your father.Q: What does the woman want the man to do?【2】M: What would you like for dinner? I think I’ll have rice and some vegetables. What about you?W: Don’t care about me. Just go ahead. I’m not hungry for the time being. I need to have a rest after so exhausting a busy day at work.Q: What will the woman most probably do?【3】M: The young man must have stolen something from that grocery store. See, he’s detained and being questioned by the security guard.W: Not really. He was buying something present in the store when the robbing happened.Q: What do we learn about the young man?【4】W: My head aches after staring at the computer screen for so long. I just can’t keep going with my term paper.
M: Do have a rest before continuing with your work. Otherwise, you may have problems with your health before you finish your assignments.
Q: What do we learn about the woman from the conversation?【5】M: How about going to a meal tonight with me, Janet? Then we can discuss how to get money for a new car.W: Ok, no problem. Our car is beyond repair. Let’s get one as soon as possible.Q: What did Janet mean?【6】W: We have to admit that social media is of much necessity. But there’re some problems with its use among the average people.
M: Of course. People are just busy using those social media websites. They haven’t realized that they’ve already wasted much time on them.Q: What does the man mean?【7】W: Hi, Mr. Pond, I am so sorry that I fail to finish typing your business letter on time. I mess up your appointment with our business partners. M: Never mind. The appointment has been postponed to the next week. You have plenty of time to get it done. I’m just about to tell you the news. Q: What’s the relationship between the two speakers?【8】W: Mark has been taking six courses this term, but it seems he couldn’t handle them well. He failed four of them in midterm exams.
M: Really? He deserves it. He would fare well if he hadn’t spent so much time playing online games.
Q: What does the man mean?Conversation OneM: You know, I’m always a fan of pop music, and I enjoy singing. The best travel experience in my life is also related to music and singing.W: Tell me fast. What’s it all about?M: That’s two years ago when I made a trip down to New York to participate in one of music competition.W: Wow, that sounds interesting. As a student in college, it’ll be a brilliant chapter in your life.M: I know, but it took much for me to make it there. In fact, I borrowed money from my friend to buy a plane ticket to get there. I felt uncomfortable with borrowing money from others.
W: I can imagine, owing a debt is not a good thing. But, anyway, you finally get to New York.M: Definitely. The competition was wonderful. All the participants enjoyed the competition. All the judges chose only the good comments on the performance of each singer.W: You must have got much encouragement from them to go on with your singing in the future.M: Absolutely. The judges are very encouraging. But the most enjoyable and exciting part of my trip there is that I made a lot of new friends who share the same hobby of singing with me.W: That’s really an unforgettable experience for you.Questions 9 to 11 are based on the conversation you have just heard.【9】Why did the man leave for New York two years ago?【10】How did the judges respond to the performance of the participants?【11】What impressed the man most during his experience in New York?Conversation TwoW: Here we have Professor Charles Binley with us today. He’s an expert on recruiting and hiring. My first question, Prof. Binley, what is the most frequent error job applicants make during a job interview?M: I’ve been in this field for many years. And I know deep in my heart that job interviews are very stressful to every applicant. However, the first error they tend to make is that they easily get too personal during a job interview.W: Too personal? You mean, they have wrong understanding of the dress code for a job interview?M: No. That means that they talk too much about their personal life stories. You know what, that’ll make the interviewers worry about whether they can keep job-related information in secret in their future job. So, my advice is that, they should avoid voluntarily offering too much personal information, just focusing on job-related topics.W: Good advice. Focus on job-related topics. Other common errors, Professor?M: The second common error is that many interviewees fail to research the company beforehand. Maybe, they’re busy taking part in one job interview after another. There’s no time for them to get enough information about the desired posts. The result is, they don’t know even the basic information about the company. I doubt that any employer prefer someone who knows nothing about what the company is all about.W: Actually, it’s easy for one to do this in this Internet age. One can get tons of information on the web. Isn’t it?M: Yes, it’s simple. But, for every applicant, it’s on the top of a must-to-do list. The last common error I want to expand on is that some applicants are passive in responding to the interviewers’ questions. That’ll make a negative impression on the interviewers. In the deep of their mind, you’ll be regarded as a passive employee in future.Questions 12 to 15 are based on the conversation you have just heard.【12】What’s the first common error made by job interviewees?【13】When you find your intended post in a company, what’re you expected to do?【14】What’s the result of being passive in responding to questions during a job interview?【15】What is mainly talked about by the two speakers?Section BPassage OneMy native land, Denmark, is a poetical land, full of popular traditions, old songs, and an eventful history, which has become bound up with that of Sweden and Norway. The Danish islands are possessed of beautiful woods, and corn fields: they resemble gardens on a great scale. Upon one of these green islands, Funen, stands Odense, the place of my birth. Odense is called after the pagan god Odin, who, as tradition states, lived here: this place is the capital of the province, and lies twenty-two Danish miles from Copenhagen.In the year 1805 there lived here, in a small mean room, a young married couple, who were extremely attached to each other; he was a shoemaker, scarcely twenty-two years old, a man of a richly gifted and truly poetical mind. His wife was ignorant of life and of the world, but possessed a heart full of love.On the second of April, 1805, a living and weeping child was born, and that was me myself, Hans Christian Andersen. During the first day of my existence my father is said to have sat by the bed, but I cried all the time. “Will you go to sleep, or lie there quietly?” it is reported that my father asked in joke. But, I still cried on. And even in the church, when I was taken to be baptized, I cried so loudly that the preacher, who was a passionate man, said, “The young one screams like a cat!” which words my mother never forgot.Questions 16 to 18 are based on the passage you have just heard.【16】How does the speaker’s hometown get its name?【17】What’s the speaker’s father’s profession?【18】What happened when Hans Anderson was baptized in the church?Passage TwoIn the 1960’s, women engaged 41 hours per week in total unpaid work, such as housework, childcare, family, and other duties, while men did 11 hours per week of total unpaid work. For women, 32 hours of this was dedicated solely to in-home work, while men contributed 4 hours a week solely to in-home work. By the year 2000, women had decreased their housework to 19 hours a week, while men increased their housework to 10 hours a week.However, women still logged 42 hours a week in unpaid labor compared to men’s 21 hours per week of unpaid labor. Interestingly, women may not resent this imbalance when they enjoy the work, and when they and their husbands feel they are especially competent at it. Some researchers do cite past research indicating that this imbalance is likely to be seen as acceptable, but much more of an imbalance is likely to be seen by one of the partners as unfair. After all, the woman performs more than 66% or the man performs more than 36%.The imbalance may be in part “real,” but also in part the result of rating differences. While men and women agree that the man does less housework in their home, wives rate their husbands as contributing 33% to the total housework, while husbands rate themselves as contributing 42%. Differences in ratings depend on who reports the housework, husband for both, wife for both, or husband and wife individually report their own housework, and what home activities are considered “housework”.Questions 19 to 21 are based on the passage you have just heard.【19】In the 1960s, how many hours did a woman spend on household chores?【20】Why does some woman love doing more housework than men?【21】What results in the differences in rating men’s and women’s share in doing housework?Passage ThreeA 31-year-old financial analyst from Queens fainted in front of an oncoming subway train. She survived but woke up to a whole new reality. “I opened my eyes and it was dark. And I thought I got home and I was waking up from a dream or something,” said Teena Katz, a subway accident victim.It wasn’t a dream. Teena Katz wasn’t home. And somehow, she wasn’t in pain. She was awake, alert, and crushed beneath a No. 7 subway train that broke both her legs.“I looked down and I saw that there was a big cut in my leg and an opening. And immediately I told whoever was speaking to me that I saw it but I wasn’t going to stare at it because I didn’t want to go into shock,” Katz said. That person was a doctor who was shocked to hear the 31-year-old financial analyst apologizing for delaying the train. Katz arrived back home Tuesday after a dozen surgeries and more than two-months in the hospital.Before the accident, her life was filled with activities like softball games, jogging, badminton. Now she faces a future of physical therapy, and necessary medical treatment. Even the mental hurdles are equally difficult to overcome.“I was also very independent. To now need help from someone for everything, is very hard for me,” Katz said. Questions 22 to 25 are based on the passage you have just heard.【22】What happened to Teena Katz?【23】What was Teena’s reaction to her wound in her leg?【24】What did Teena say to the doctor who was tending her?【25】How’s Teena’s life now?Section CThe whole world is accepting and adopting the ways towards the advancement of mobile technology. The youth is playing a 26. vital role in this. Our youth is concentrating on some bad choices and are not able to 27. battle the crisis of mobile phone abuse. Our youth are attracted to 28. divert their attention towards the internet and they are influenced and changed a lot by the 29. usage of internet. A few of them tend to use the internet or mobile 30. devices for knowledge, information, awareness and exposure but the majority of them appear to have misused the internet or mobile phones.The using of the mobile phones by young people has been a global 31. phenomenon in recent years. It is now a key part of young peoples’ daily lives, and on student 32. community it is more than a mobile phone alone. And a mobile phone is for the majority, the most popular form of 33. electronic communication. In fact, the mobile phone has turned from a technological tool to a social tool.Young people use the mobile phone in positive ways to organise and maintain their social networks.
