section A
Conversation 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 that it’s probably cheaper to avoid climate change to avoid the risk than it has to deal with the likely consequences。
W: So what are we doing? What can we do about it?
M: Well I would argue that we need to develop the science specifically to understand the likely impacts of climate change in different contexts。
As I said we need to understand the best ways of avoiding climate change and this will involve a huge transition to low carbon energy systems and the transition is a tremendous priority。
And for this to happen, we may need action on a global scale from a political perspective。
We need to understand the terms on which major countries like China and the USA might sign up to a global agreement because at the moment we don‘t have that consensus。
W: Right。
M: And we also need to plan ahead so that we‘re in a position to deal with the likely levels of climate change which are already inevitable and even more so to for the levels that are likely if we don’t get those global agreements。
Q1. What does Professor H say about his main area of research?
A It tries to predict the possible trends of global climate change。
B It studies the impact of global climate change on people’s lives。
C It links the science of climate change to economic and policy issues。

答案 C
Q2. What does Professor H say about climate change?
A It will take a long time before a consensus is reached on its impact。
B It would be more costly to deal with its consequences than to avoid it。
C It is the most pressing issue confronting all countries。
D It is bound to cause endless disputes among nations。
答案 B
Q3. What does Professor H say is a top priority in combating climate change?
A The transition to low-carbon energy systems。
B The cooperation among world major powers。
C The signing of a global agreement。
D The raising of people’s awareness。
答案 A
Q4. What does Professor H advise us to do to better deal with climate change?
A Carry out more research on it。
B Cut down energy consumption。
C Plan well in advance。

Conversation 2
(成功的要素)
W: I have many business English students。 When I teach the classroom, we often end up talking about things like success and what leads to success。 And it‘s interesting that many of them mention the element of luck。
M: Right。
W: Luck is important to success。 But since you‘ve seen that fantastic video on the TED Talks website by Richard St。 John, he doesn’t mention luck at all。
M: Well, I‘m a firm believer that people can make their own luck。 I mean what people regard as luck, you can actually create, to a degree。
W: Sure。 I think a lot of what people consider luck is attributed to how you respond to the opportunities that come your way。
M: Yes。 Very good point。
W: Seizing the opportunities。 But was there any point in the video that you thought was particularly interesting?
M: Yes。 Actually there was。 Something very impressive to me as many people think that luck is important and that natural talent is something you must have in order to be successful。 And in the video we saw, the point about getting good at something is not about having some natural talent。 It‘s all about practice, practice, practice。
W: Definitely yeah。 Natural talent helps in some way but at the end of the day you really do need to work hard and get really really good at what you do。
M: Sure。
W: I thought one interesting thing in the video was the idea of passion being so important and that people who really love what they do。 Of course you‘re going to want to work harder and put the time and effort into it。 And the funny thing is that if you love what you do and are really passionate about it and work really hard, the money kind of comes automatically。
Q5. What are the speakers mainly talking about?
Q6. What is the woman’s view of luck?
Q7. What is the chief point the TED Talks video makes?
Q8. What does the woman think is the funny thing in the TED Talks video?
section B
Passage 1
(美国恶魔塔的形成原因以及关于它的印第安传说)
Devil’s Tower, the first national monument in America, could almost be mistaken for the stump of an enormous tree。 Its sheer rock sides sweep up from a broad base until they cut off abruptly at the flat summit。 Rising more than 1,000 feet in the middle of the gently rolling plains of Wyoming, the massive column of rock, looks as though it was dropped down into this location from a different time and place。
In a sense, it was, Devil’s Tower is a relic of the past。 When the melt rock of the earth’s core forced its way to the surface to form the throat of a volcano, as the centuries passed, the rock cooled and hardened, shrinking and cracking into long columns, born in fire and fury。 Devil’s Tower was then shaped by the slow, gentle work of wind and water。 The outer layers of the volcano were worn away until the hard core stood completely exposed。
It is small wonder that an Indian legend described Devil’s Tower as being formed by supernatural powers。 The legend says that when seven girls were attacked by bears, they took refuge on top of a small rock, and they appealed to the Rock God for help。 The God caused the rock to grow and to lift the girls far above the ground, while it sides were scored by the claws of the angry bears。 Even today, says the legend, the girls can be seen above the towering rock。 As seven shining stars in the night sky。
9. What does the Devil’s Tower look like?
10. What cause the volcano’s outer layers to wear away?
11. What does the Indian legend say about the Devil’s Tower?
12. How did the Rock God help the seven girl in the Indian legend?
Passage 2
(如何科学理财)
It’s no accident that most gas stations have convenience stores attached。 Few of us can fill up the tank without buying a few snacks, cigarettes,soft drinks or other items we can live without。 I deserve it。 That’s what hard working men and women say to justify their lavish vacations, big stereo systems or regular restaurant meals。 They do deserve such indulgences。 However, they also deserve a home of their own--a secure retirement and freedom from worrying about unpaid bills。 No one should have to live with what a Texas mother described as constant stress,tension, even fear about money。 Sadly the pleasure that comes from extravagances often disappears long before the bills do。 The video camera that one single mother bought for a special occasion, for example, is not much fun now。 She’s figured out that it will take her another three years to pay it off at $30 a month。 And the New Yorkers who spent a bundle on an outdoor hot tub now admit they rarely use it, because we can‘t afford to heat it in winter。 The solution set priorities add up the annual cost of each item。 Then consider what else you can buy with the same money。 That will help you decide which items are really worth it。 One Chicago woman, for example, discovered that daily lunches with coworkers cost her $ a year; she decided to take lunch to work instead。 “I now put $20 a week into my vacation fund and another 20 into retirement savings, she says, those mean more to me than lunch”。
Q13. What does the speaker say about drivers who stop at gas stations?
Q14. What does the speaker say about extravagances?
Q15. What does a speaker want to show by the example of the Chicago woman?

Passage Two
Lions prefer to eat without having to do much work.When resting in the shade, they are also watchingthe sky. And if they see birds fly down, theyimmediately sense that something must behappening. Even in the heat of the day. They willcertainly arise and run a mile across the plains to find out what is going on. If another animalhas made a kill, they will drive it off and take the dead animal for themselves. A grown lion caneasily consume 60 pounds of meat at a single feeding. Often, they eat until it seems painful forthem to lie down. The female lions are leaner and swifter, and as a result, are better huntersthan the males. Most kills are made at night or just before dawn. The kill is the most excitingmoment in the day-to-day existence of the lion, since these great beasts spend most of theirtime - about 20 hours a day - sleeping and resting. Lions are also social cats. And during thesetimes of leisure, they love to romp against each other, and the young lions are always playingamong themselves and with their parents.
Questions 14 to 16 are based on the passage you have just heard.

Conversation One
M: So how long have you been a Market Research Consultant?
W: Well, I started straight after finishing university.
M: Did you study market research?
W: Yeah, and it really helped me to get into the industry, but I have to say that it's more important to get experience in different types of market research to find out exactly what you're interested in.
M: So what are you interested in?
W: Well, at the moment, I specialize in quantitative advertising research, which means that I do two types of projects. Trackers, which are ongoing projects that look at trends or customer satisfaction over a long period of time. The only problem with trackers is that it takes up a lot of your time. But you do build up a good relationship with the client. I also do a couple of ad-hoc jobs which are much shorter projects.
M: What exactly do you mean by ad-hoc jobs?
W: It's basically when companies need quick answers to their questions about their consumers' habits. They just ask for one questionnaire to be sent out for example, so the time you spend on an ad-hoc project tends to be fairly short.
M: Which do you prefer, trackers or ad-hoc?
W: I like doing both and in fact I need to do both at the same time to keep me from going crazy. I need the variety.
M: Can you just explain what process you go through with a new client?
W: Well, together we decide on the methodology and the objectives of the research. I then design a questionnaire. Once the interviewers have been briefed, I send the client a schedule and then they get back to me with deadlines. Once the final charts and tables are ready, I have to check them and organize a presentation.
M: Hmm, one last question, what do you like and dislike about your job?
W: As I said, variety is important and as for what I don't like, it has to be the checking of charts and tables.
Questions 1 to 4 are based on the conversation you have just heard.
Q1: What position does the woman hold in the company?
Q2: What does the woman specialize in at the moment?
Q3: What does the woman say about trackers?
Q4: What does the woman dislike about her job?
Conversation Two
W: Hello, I'm here with Frederick. Now Fred, you went to university in Canada?
M: Yeah, that's right.
W: OK, and you have very strong views about universities in Canada. Could you please explain?
M: Well, we don't have private universities in Canada. They’re all public. All the universities are owned by the government, so there is the Ministry of Education in charge of creating the curriculum for the universities and so there is not much room for flexibility. Since it's a government operated institution, things don't move very fast. If you want something to be done, then their staff do not have so much incentive to help you because he's a worker for the government. So I don't think it's very efficient. However, there are certain advantages of public universities, such as the fees being free. You don't have to pay for your education. But the system isn't efficient, and it does not work that well.
W: Yeah, I can see your point, but in the United States we have many private universities, and I think they are large bureaucracies also. Maybe people don't act that much differently, because it’s the same thing working for a private university. They get paid for their job. I don’t know if they're that much more motivated to help people. Also, we have a problem in the United States that usually only wealthy kids go to the best schools and it's kind of a problem actually.
M: I agree with you. I think it's a problem because you're not giving equal access to education to everybody. It’s not easy, but having only public universities also might not be the best solution. Perhaps we can learn from Japan where they have a system of private and public universities. Now, in Japan, public universities are considered to be the best.
W: Right. It's the exact opposite in the United States.
M: So, as you see, it's very hard to say which one is better.
W: Right, a good point.
Questions 5 to 8 are based on the conversation you have just heard.
Q5: What does the woman want Frederick to talk about?
Q6: What does the man say about the curriculum in Canadian universities?
Q7: On what point do the speakers agree?
Q8: What point does the man make at the end of the conversation?
