There is no clear date of foundation, but teaching existed at Oxford in some form in 1096 and developed rapidly from 1167, when Henry II banned English students from attending the University of Paris.Nearly 1,000 years old, Oxford University has a history as impressive as its schoolfellows, who also include writers such as William Golding, Graham Greene, and John Fowles. Tony Blair also studied here.Oxford lies about 57 miles (90 km) northwest of London. A medium-sized city with a total population of some 140,000, including over 30,000 students, Oxford has a lively atmosphere, with a wealth of cultural, entertainment and sports facilities.As an internationally renowned centre for teaching and research, Oxford attracts students and scholars from across the globe, with almost a quarter of our students from overseas. More than 130 nationalities are represented among a student population of over 18,000.IV. Directions: Listen to the passage and decide whether the following statements are true (T) or false (F). (10 points)Beijing began to approve the foundation of private schools in September 1992. Now it has 49 private high schools and primary schools. There are about 20,000 students in these schools, accounting for 1% of all school-aged children.When Huijia Private School, one of the private schools in Beijing, started in September 1993, it enrolled only 39 students. Today it has nearly 1,600 students, from primary to high school level. Most of the students are children of successful business people, famous stars, best-selling writers, and some journalists, according to WangJun, a teacher at the school.The huge population base of China creates the largest education industry in the world. In 1999 it had a total of 320 million, accounting for about 30% of the world's student population. Limited financial resources severely restricted educational development in China. Private schools revived after the 1985 policy in response to the large demand.Education officials said that to a cultural center like Beijing, it is proper to have 5% to 10% of the school-aged children attending private schools. Private education needs to develop at a faster rate. The Ministry of Education has made it a national policy to encourage the development of private education.听说单元测试——Level 1 Unit 11、12Listening ComprehensionI.

Directions: Listen to the passage, and fill in the form below with no more than three words for each blank.(20 points)Different from western countries, a Chinese dinner table is set with chopsticks instead of knives and forks, but that’s only superficial. Besides, in decent restaurants, you can always ask for a pair of knife and fork, if you find the chopsticks not helpful enough. The real difference is that in the West, you have your own plate of food, while in China the dishes are placed on the table and everyone shares. If you are being treated to a formal dinner and particularly if the host thinks you’re in the country for the first time, he will do the best to give you a taste of many different types of dishes.Perhaps one of the things that surprise a Western visitor most is that some of the Chinese hosts like to put food into the plates of their guests. In formal dinners, there are always “public” chopsticks and spoons for this purpose, but some hosts may usetheir own chopsticks. This is a sign of genuine friendship and politeness. It is always polite to eat the food. If you do not eat it, just leave the food in the plate.People in China tend to over-order food, for they will find it embarrassing if all the food is consumed. When you have had enough, just say so. Or you will always overeat!

Dialogue 1
Main ideas
1. This is not a naturally-occuring conversation; this is a conversation in a movie written by a film writer.
2. The conversation most probably takes place in Ruth's home. The two speakers are friends. The first
speaker's name is Barbara and the second speaker's name is Ruth. The conversation is about work related
issues. Ruth doesn't like her job and is thinking of looking for another job.
3. Barbara feels terrible about her job while Ruth likes her job.
4. Barbara's attitude towards her job is not quite right. For her, meeting the public was tiresome and
unpleasant because her attitude was cold and uncooperative, sometimes even antagonistic.
5. Narrator: It was as simple as that. For Ruth, meeting the public was pleasant because she enjoyed people
and greeted them with a smile. For Barbara, meeting the public was tiresome and unpleasant because her
attitude was cold and uncooperative, sometimes even antagonistic.

the lines are blurring.
2. The second speaker's name is Maggie Jackson. Her new book is called Balancing Work, Life and Refuge in the Information Age. She states that "[B]ecause of technology, we are able to have our bodies at home, but our minds in a different place... You are doing work that separates you mentally from the home." She thinks that we're making the boundaries more flexible ;boundary-
making is important, but we don't make enough boundaries In that sense, we are facing all kinds of problems and dilemmas while working at home
Details and Inferences
1. Maggie says, "For me, I was writing about the world of the workplace, the work/life balance,
and noticing that the lines were blurring and also, at the same time at home, I was gaining the technology to be more Ilexible in my work. I could come home for dinner, put the kids to bed, finish a story or interview people in California-and I'm on the East fhme, I felt as though my work was seeping and leaking and bleeding into the rest of my house."}} JQ`llcIt supports Maggie's point of view that the kind of experience of home is being lost if we work at homebecause the lines, the boundaries between the work and life at home are becoming blurring.
