Are Families Demanding Too Much from
Their Children?
Most families demand
too much from their children. Usually parents will
hope their
children to become a
musician or a scientist or something else. The
children are asked to play
the piano
and do extra homework everyday.
But the
parents often ignore the interests of their
children, who could not do well because
they have to choose what they hate to
do. All parents love their children and try to
give
them their best love. They expect
a very successful child. But the problem is, most
of the
time, their love may be painful
for their children.
Each child is born
unique. Do not force them. Give them their own sky
and space, and
children have to be
themselves. Every child is different. Every child
has his/her own position
in the world.
It is the parents’ responsibility to give them the
best advice.

Understanding Conversations
Directions:
In this section, you will hear 8 short
conversations and 2 long conversations. At the end
of each conversation, one or more
questions will be asked about what was said. Both
the
conversations and the questions
will be spoken only once. After each question
there will
be a pause. During the
pause, you must read the four choices marked A, B,
C and D, and
decide which is the best
answer, then write the corresponding letter on the
Answer Sheet 2.
Short Conversations
11. W: When does the next bus leave for
New York?
M: Buses leave for New York
every two hours. You just missed the 9:30 bus by

minutes.
Q: What time is
it now?
12. M: Shall we go dancing
tonight to relax ourselves? You’ve been writing
your term paper
all these
days.
W: I still have to collect some
data, but maybe a break would do me good.
Q: What will the woman probably do?

W: Don’t waste
your time and money any more. It’s a very old
watch and is quite worn out.
Q: What does the woman mean?
14. M: Would you like to have dinner
with me tonight?
W: I’d like to, but I
have an appointment with my friend.
Q: What does the woman mean?
15. M: How much are these clothes?
W: They are on sale today, sir. 30
dollars for each jacket and 25 dollars for each
T-shirt.
Q: How much does one jacket
and two T-shirts cost?
16. M: How will
you spend your Saturday evening? Shall we go to
the movies?
W: That’s exactly what I
have been thinking about. Do you know what’s on
tonight?
Q: What does the
woman mean?
17. W: Yesterday’s play was
quite good. The part of the secretary was played
wonderfully,
but I think the
man who played the boss was too dramatic to be
realistic.

M: I couldn’t agree more.
Q: What does the man mean?

Q:
What do we learn from the conversation?
Long Conversations
Conversation One
M: Hello?
W: Hi, it’s
me.
M: Oh, hi! How was the job interview?
W: Well, he hired me.
M: You
got the job? The management job? Oh, that’s
great!
W: No, I didn’t say I
got the management job. He hired me for a job in
customer
service, selling
tours to Asia.
M: Just customer
service? But what about the management position?
You were perfect
for that job. You can
supervise people. You understand the business.
W: I know. I showed him my resume. I
told him that I worked in travel management
for five years back home, and that I
even got a degree in Business Management
here in the U.S.
M: Oh, I
can’t believe that. You’re perfectly qualified for
that management position.
W:
That’s what I thought. It’s not fair! Why did I
bother going to college here?
M: Wait, wait a minute. Did he know
that you were applying for the management
position?
W: Of course. But
he didn’t give me that job.
M: Why?
W: He said that
everyone really expects the manager to be someone
from the local
community. The person
they hired is from New York. And she’s a woman,
t
oo, so
it’s not because I
am a woman. So that means the problem is my
English. I’m not a
native
speaker, and I guess that’s what they want for the
management job.
M: Well, you
know, you spend a little time at the customer
service job and then you
can work your
way up to the management position.
Questions 19 to 22 are based on the
conversation you have just heard.

feeling well?
W: well, I’ve
been really worried. It’s my
car. It’s in the shop again.
M: Really? What’s wrong this
time?
W: I don’t know
exactly. Something’s wrong with the brakes, I
think.
M: Well, at least
that shouldn’t cost you much to fix. Parts are
cheaper for all the
American
cars like yours. Did the mechanic say how much it
would cost?
W: He said he would call me
with an estimate later on today.
M:
Watch out he doesn’t try to take advantage of
you.
W: What do you mean?
M: Well, some car mechanics, if they
think that someone doesn’t know much
about
cars, they might try
to overcharge that person.
W: Maybe so.
But I trust this guy. He was recommended by one of
my neighbors. He
has done some for me
in the past and his price seemed to be reasonable.
M: Oh, that’s good to know. Maybe I’ll
try using him in the f
uture. By the
way, do you
need a ride home after
class today?
W: Oh, I’d sure appreciate
it. It’s really tough getting around without a car
when you
live off campus.

hear a question, you must choose the
best answer from the four choices marked A, B, C
and D. Then write the corresponding

Passage
One
A university professor recently
made several experiments with different animals to
find out which was the most
intelligent. He found out that monkeys were more
intelligent
than other animals.
In one experiment the professor put a
monkey in a room where there were several
small boxes. Some boxes were inside
other boxes. One small box had some food inside
of it. The professor wanted to watch
the monkey and to find out how long it would take
the monkey to find the food. The
professor left the room. He waited a few minutes
outside
the door. Then he knelt down
and put his eye to the keyhole. What did he see?
To
his surprise he found himself
looking directly into the eye of the monkey. The
monkey
was looking at the professor
through the keyhole on the other side of the door.
Questions 26 to 28 are based on the
passage you have just heard.

was the purpose of the professor’s

Passage Two
There are many
different kinds of cars in this world. My cousin
thinks this is because
cars are like
their drivers. He says, “Rich people have
expensive cars, big people
have large cars, and old people drive
old cars.” But I don’t agree with him. My
ne
ighbor,
Mrs. Hill, is 82
years old. She drives only on Tuesdays, and then
she drives only to the
bank. She never
drives more than 30 kilometers an hour. Do you
think Mrs. Hill has a very
old and
small car? No! Her car is new. It’s very large and
it can go
200 kilometers per hour!
My friend, Mike, is an artist. He
paints beautiful pictures with lots of colors. But
his car is black! Mrs. Bates has a very
old car. It often has engine trouble. Does she
drive
that kind of car because she is
poor? NO, she has four restaurants and two million
dollars in the bank. My uncle Joe has a
very small car. Every Sunday, he drives to the
country with his wife, his three
children, his mother and their dog.
Questions 29 to 32 are based on the

Passage Three
I flew to San
Francisco to take care of some business with Mr.
Jordan. But as soon
as I arrived, I got
sick and couldn’t meet with him. I had to call our
appointment off.
Then when I
felt better, I thought about visiting him at his
home, but he lived too far
away. I
tried to telephone him during office hours but he
was busy. The receptionist
said that
Mr. Jordan would call me back. But he didn’t. I
gave up trying to make a new
appointment because it would take more
time and effort than I wanted to spend. A few
days later, I saw a man on the street
who looked like Mr. Jordan and I called out to
him.
It was someone else. When I
returned to my hotel that day, I found a message
which
said that Mr. Jordan had gone out
of town on some sudden unexpected business. I was
sorry I had missed seeing him, but I
really enjoyed my sightseeing.
Questions 33 to 35 are based on the
passage you have just heard.
33. How
did the speaker go to San Francisco?
34. Why couldn’t the speaker meet Mr.
Jordan when he got to San Francisco?
35. Why did the speaker give up making
a new appointment?
Band Two 161
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
your own words. Finally, when the passage is read
for the third time, you should check
what you have written.
When
my interest (36) shifted from space to the sea, I
never (37) expected it would cause
such
(38) confusion among my friends, yet I can
understand their feelings. As I have been
writing and talking about space flight
for the best part of 20 years, a sudden (39)
switch of
interest to the depth of the
sea do
es seem peculiar. To explain, I’d
like to share my reasons behind
this (40) unusual change of mind. The
first excuse I give is an (41) economic one.
Underwater
(42) exploration is so much
cheaper than space flight. The first round-trip
ticket to the
moon is going to cost at
least 10 billion dollars if you include research
and (43) development.
By the end of
this century, the cost will be down to a few
million. (44) On the other hand,
the
diving suit and a set of basic tools needed for
skin-diving can be bought for 20 dollars. My
second argument is more philosophical.
(45) The ocean, surprisingly enough, has many
things
in common with space. In their
different ways, both sea and space are equally
hostile. (46) If we
wish to survive in
either for any length of time, we need to have
mechanical aids. The diving
suit helped
the design of the space suit. The feelings and the
emotions of a man beneath the
sea will
be much like those of a man beyond the atmosphere.

Keys to Model Test 2
Part I. Writing
My View on
the Reform of CET-4
As we all know, the
reform of CET-4 is being carried out in some areas
now. This
phenomenon has aroused a
heated argument. Different people have different
views on
“Should
CET
-
4 be reformed?”. Some
people think that it is nec
essary and
it can benefit
students because they
believe it can improve students’ English level,
especially in today’s society.
While others argue that the reform of
CET-4 is not necessary and it can have negative
effect on
students. They think the
reform of CET-4 can bring students more stress.
As far as I am concerned, I’m in favor
of the reform of CET
-4. For one thing,
the new
type of CET-4 is more difficult
than the previous one, so it can make students
learn English

word
文档
harder.
For another, it trains studen
ts’
comprehensive ability to apply English,
especially
their hearing
ability, which makes them be able to use English
easily to carry on the
oral
communication. Moreover, the reform of CET-4 is
not just a reform of examination,
but a
reform of university English education on the
nation-wide scale.
Taking all these
factors into consideration, we may safely come to
the conclusion that
it is wise to
reform the CET-4, and it is a good thing. Only if
we make our efforts can we
succeed in
CET-4.

71. D.
语篇理解题。前面是说父母的言行会强烈地影响

B. through

都不合题意。
73. A.
固定搭配题。上一句说
“
父母影响孩子形成自我形象
”
,故能导致
“

,
“
以

是固定搭配,
应为
“in ... way”

A
。
74. C.
语篇理解题。有上句
who see mainly
positive qualities ... in a positive way,
及本句后
部分的
have difficulty ...
positive

可看出上下两句是语义相反的对比句,故
可推测出此处要选
positive
的
反义词
negative
,故答案为
C
。
75. D.
< br>固定搭配题。由于空格处是一名词短语,故此处需填动词或介词,由已知选项可
知应是动词;而空前又是
have
difficulty
,故很容易想到
have
difficulty (in) doing

这一
固定短语,故选
D
。
76. A.
语篇题。由
howev
er
可看出这句话的意思是对前面
“
子女的自我形象受到父母的
言行影响

的转折,故空格处应是与
“

”
语义相反的词。四个选项中只有
A.
modify
符合题意,其它三项都不合题意。
77. C.
语篇理解题。由题意可知,此空格处需一副词,
修饰谓语
influenced
,由上下文可
< br>
推断出,该句想要表达
“
越来越多地受同龄人的影响
”
p>
之意。四个选项中只有
C
符
合题意,故选
C. increasingly“<
/p>
越来越多地
”
。
78. C.
语篇题。本题应从下文中的有关内容找
isolated
events “
孤立事件
”
和
dramatic ones
“
戏剧性事件
”
之间的关系。而
C
项用来加强语气,意为
< br>
“

,说明
dramatic
events
是一个更深程度的事件。
79. D.
固定搭配题。上段
A parent’s actions ... affect the
self

和本句都是在解释家
长对孩子的影响
这一观点,故两者在语义上应是连贯的,本句很明显是考查固定短
语,空上需一介词,该介词可与
have effect
...
形成固定词组,故正确答案为
D
。
80. B.
语篇理解题。根据后一句
...
if children feel unloved, they may interpret such
events
... a sign of rejection or
punishment
可知,前后两句在意思上是相对立的,既然后句
讲
“
觉得自己不被父母所爱的孩子
...”
,那么前一句就应说
“
知道自己被父母所爱的孩
子
??”
,故正确答案为
B
,其它三项都不合题意。
81.
B.
语篇题。
Children who know
they are loved can accept ...
是对前句
...

their established
attitudes and previous training
的解释,很显然
是举例说明,故选
B
。
82. A.
语篇题。根据对上下文的理解可知,本句与上句
之间应是转折关系,故正确答案
为
A.
。
83. A.
固定搭配题。此空是考查和
interpret
搭配的介词,
interpret
... as ...
这一固定搭配
意为
“??
理解为

,故选
A
。
84. C.
语篇题。
由第一句可判断此句是和上段内容相连的,即由于孩子固有的性情或早

work, but aren’t as
busy as they once were.
Q:
What do you learn from this conversation?
14. W: Can you help me? I haven’t done
this before.
M: It’s easy.
All you do is put the worm on the hook, loosen the

M: Pubs in England are friendly
and warm places where you can have a drink and
usually a simple meal.
W:
What kind of drinks do people get?
M:
You can get wine in most pubs. Many also serve
coffee. You go to the counter to
order
and pay for your drink.
W: When do
people go to the pubs?
M: Pubs are not
open all day. They can decide when to open. Most
open for 3 or 4

from 11:00am-11:00pm. Are there pubs in China?
W: Yes. Most of the goers are young
people. They like to stay with their friends after
work and have a fun time.
M:
It is against the law in England to go into a pub
if you are under the age of 14. So,
many pubs provide a special room for
children.

Section B Understanding Passages
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 write the
corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet 2.
Passage One
Strikes are very
common in Britain. They are extremely harmful to
its industry. In
fact, there are other
countries in Western Europe that lose more working
days through
strikes every year than
Britain. The trouble with strikes in Britain is
that they occur in
essential
industries. There are 495 unions in Britain. Some
unions are very small. Over
20 have
more than 100 000 members. Unions do not exist
only to demand higher
wages, they also
educate their members. They provide benefits for
the sick and have
tried to improve
working conditions in the last hundred years. It
is now against the law
for union
members to go on strike without the support of
their union. This kind of
strike is
called an unofficial strike and these were common
until recently. Employers feel
that
unofficial strikers are the most harmful because
they can not be predicted. However,
these still occur from time to time and
some unions have also refused to cooperate
with the law. As a result, the general
picture of the relations between workers and
employers in Britain has gone from bad
to worse.
Questions 26 to 29 are based
on the passage you have just heard.
26.
How many unions are there that have less than 100
000 members in Britain?

文档
27. In what way are strikes in Britain
different from those in other European countries?
28. What can be inferred about British
unions from the passage?
29. What
conclusion can be drawn from the passage?
Passage Two
Alfred Nobel,
the great Swedish inventor and industrialist, was
a man of many
contrasts. He was the son
of bankrupt parents but became a millionaire, a
scientist with
a love of literature, an
industrialist who managed to remain an idealist.
He made a
fortune but lived a simple
life. A lover of mankind, he never had a wife or
family to love
him; a patriotic son of
his native land, he died alone on foreign soil. He
invented a new
explosive dynamite to
improve the peacetime industries of mining and
road building, but
170 Model Test 2
saw it used as a weapon of war to kill
and injure his fellow men. During his useful life
he
often felt he was useless: “Alfred
Nobel, ” he once wrote to himself, “ought to have
been
put to death by a kind
doctor as soon as, with a cry, he entered life.”
World
-famous for
his works,
he was never personally well known, for throughout
his life he avoided
publicity. “I do
not see,” he once said, “I have deserved any fame
and I have no taste for
it.”
But since his death, his name has brought fame and
glory to others.
Questions
30 to 32 are based on the passage you have just
heard.
30. Where was Alfred Nobel born?
31. Why was he not well-known in his
lifetime?
32. Which of the following is
TRUE?
Passage Three
Life on
earth depends on the sun. Day after day we see its
light and feel its
warmth, but we do
not often consider its origin. Yet there are many
remarkable things
about the sun. One is
its distance from the earth. That is, about 93
million miles. A
journey of this
distance, even if it could be made, would take
several hundred years even
in the
fastest rocket.
The sun makes us feel
hot, even at a distance of 93 million miles. This
is not
surprising. The temperature on
the sun is about ten thousand degrees Fahrenheit.
But
we receive only a small part of
this heat. The total heat of the sun could melt a
column
of ice two and a quarter miles
thick and 93 million miles high in one second.
The brightness of the sun is equally
astonishing. As we said earlier, we receive
only a very small part of the sun’s
heat. We also receive only a very small part of
its light.
This is
sufficient for the growth of trees and plants, and
for the existence of living
creatures
on earth. Too much heat and light would destroy
the balance of life. The heat
and light
from the sun come in just the right quantities for
life on earth.
Questions 33 to 35 are
based on the passage you have just heard.
33. What is the size of the column of
ice that the total heat of the sun could melt
in one second?
34. What is
the temperature of the sun?
35. Which
of the following is TRUE according to the passage?
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 45
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 your own words.
Finally, when the passage is read
for
the third time, you should check what you have
written.
Band Two 171
The
great ship, Titanic, sailed for New York from
Southampton on April
10th, 1912. She
was carrying 1 316 (36) passengers and a crew of
(37) 891. Even
by modern standards, the
46 000 ton Titanic was a colossal (38) ship. At
that time,
however, she was not only
the largest ship that had ever been built, but was
(39) regarded as unsinkable, for she
had sixteen watertight compartments. Even if
two of these were flooded, she would
still be able to float. The (40) tragic sinking

< br>
of this great liner
will always be remembered, for she went down on
her first (41)
voyage with heavy loss
of life.
Four days after (42) setting
out, while the Titanic was sailing across the icy
waters of the North Atlantic, a huge
iceberg was suddenly spotted by a lookout.
After the alarm had been given, the
great ship turned (43) sharply to avoid a
direct collision. The Titanic turned
just in time, narrowly missing the immense
wall of ice which rose over 100 feet
out of the water beside her. Suddenly, there
was a slight trembling sound from
below, and the captain went down to see what
had happened. (44) The noise had been
so faint that no one thought that the
ship had been damaged. Below, the
captain realized to his horror that the Titanic
was sinking rapidly, for five of her
sixteen watertight compartments had already
been flooded! (45) The order to abandon
ship was given and hundreds of people
plunged into the icy water. As there
were not enough lifeboats for everybody, 1
500 lives were lost.

Part I. Writing
Computer Games on Campus
Today, college students like playing
computer games. Maybe playing computer games
can be beneficial to
studen
ts to some extent. It brings fun
and trains one’s reactivity,
determination,
and
attention.
However, too many college
students are absorbed in playing computer games,
which
brings some negative effects.
First, it is very time-consuming to play computer
games. The
game fans have sacrificed
almost all their time thus they have no time to
attend class, to
take exercises, or
even to date. Second, those who play computer
games excessively would
easily fall
victim to various illnesses. For example, game
fans always fix their eyes on the
screen; therefore they are likely to be
near-sighted.
In my opinion, as
students we should devote ourselves to our study
instead of spending
too much time
playing computer games, so that we will not regret
that they have wasted
the precious
college time on nothing upon graduation.

the world that I would ever do.
Q: What
does the woman mean?
13. M: I don’t
understand how you got a ticket. You are such a
careful driver.
W: I usually
am, but this time I thought I could get through
the intersection before the
light
turned.
Q: What do we learn from the
conversation?
14. W: The lecture given
by Professor Smith was too complicated to
understand.
M: Well. I think he could
have made himself understood better if he hadn’t
spoken so fast.
Q: What does
the man imply?
15. M: Hello.
I’d
like to speak to Dr. Black.
W: Dr. Black isn’t available now. Could
you please leave a message?

Conversations
Conversation One
W: I’m thinking about going to Costa
Rica.
M: Great. I went to
Costa Rica once, but I had a terrible time getting
there.
W: Oh, yeah? What happened?
M: Well, when I got to the airport, I
realized I didn’t have my passport. So I
called
a friend. He broke
into my house, got my passport and brought it to
me. But I
missed that flight so I had
to stay overnight in San Francisco.
W:
Oh, that’s too bad.
M: Yeah.
So I got the flight the next day. On the way we
had engine trouble, so we had
to stop
in Mexico City. I was stuck there for another 22
hours.
W: Oh, my gosh.
M:
And I mean stuck. They wouldn’t
even
let us out of the airport.
W: You are
kidding.
M: I’m telling you. Finally we
get to Costa Rica two days late and…
W: And don’t tell me, your luggage
isn’t there.
M: You guessed

M: Well ... come to think of it, it did

W:
Are you sure you entered the correct number?
M: Hmm, I think so, but maybe I made a
mistake.
W: I see. Well, you probably
entered the wrong number. When a machine receives
a
wrong number three times it
automatically keeps the card.
M: Oh, I
didn’t know that. So how do I get another

That’s

Section B Understanding Passages
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 write the
corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet 2.
Passage One
Mr. Smith was a
wealthy industrialist, but he was not satisfied
with his life. He didn’
t
sleep well and his food did not agree with him.
This situation lasted for some time.
Finally, he decided to consult his
doctor. The doctor advised a change of
surroundings.
“Go abroad,” he said.
“But I’m not good at foreign language,” said Mr.
Smith. “It doesn’
t matter,”
said the doctor, “Go on a voyage. Take plenty of
exercise. Try to reduce your
weight. ”
Mr.
Smith went to Switzerland. He did not know French
or German, and had to
communicate
through gestures. He attended a physical training
course. To strengthen
his muscles, he
had to lie on the ground and raise his right and
left legs alternately. After
a time, he
refreshed and forgot the troublesome problems of
his factory. He even began
to notice
individual trees and individual birds.
Questions 26 to 28 are based on the
passage you have just heard.
26. Who
was Mr. Smith?
27. What was wrong with
Mr. Smith?
28. How did Mr. Smith solve
his problem?
Passage Two
In
the United States and in many other countries
around the world, there are four
main
ways for people to be informed about developments
in the news: newspapers,
magazines,
radio and television news broadcasts. A person may
use one, or all, of these
sources for
information. Each source is useful in its own way.
Newspapers and magazines can give much
information about a particular event.

They may provide some
history of the event, the reason for it being
told, some of its
effects, or perhaps
give an opinion or point of view on a particular
development. Radio
and television can
help a person to be well-informed about what is
happening each day.
It is also possible
to listen to radio or watch TV and do something
else at the same time.
Many people can
listen to the news on their car radio while
driving somewhere.

31. What is TRUE about radio or TV
news?
Passage Three
In the
local newspaper of my community recently there was
a story about a man
named Virgle
Spears. He lived in a small town about 40 miles
from my home. He had
served five years
in a New York prison for robbing a restaurant.
When he returned to
his family, Mr.
Spears couldn’t find a job. Everyone knew he had
been in pr
ison and
nobody
trusted him. Finally in desperation, he calmly
walked into a local barbershop
where he
was well-known, pulled out a gun and took all the
money the barber had. Up
to this point
it had been a fairly routine crime. But then
something unusual happened.
Mr. Spears
didn’t try to get away. He got into his car, drove
slowly out of his town and
waited for the police. When they called
him, he made only one request. He turned to
the arresting policemen and said,
“Would you please ask the court to put
m
y family on
welfare just as
soon as possible?”
Questions
32 to 35 are based on the passage you have just
heard.
32. Where was the story told?
33. Why couldn’t Virgle Spears find a
job?
34. Why did Virgle
Spears rob the local barbershop?
35.
What did Mr. Spears do after he robbed the
barbershop?
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 your own words. Finally, when the
passage is read
for the third time, you
should check what you have written.
Sport is one of the world’s largest
(36) industries, and most athletes are
profession
als
who are paid
for their (37) efforts. Because an athlete (38)
succeeds by achievement
only
—
not by (39) economic
background or family connections
—
sports can be a fast
route to (40) wealth, and many athletes
play more for money than for love.
This
has not always been true. In the (41) ancient
Olympics the winner got only
a wreath
of olive leaves (
橄榄叶花环
).
Even though the winners became (42) national
heroes, the games (43) remained amateur
for centuries. Athletes won fame, not money.
As time passed, however, (44) the
contests became increasingly less amateur and
cities
Band Two 179
began to
hire athletes to represent them. By the fourth
century A.D., (45) the Olympics
were
ruined, and were ended soon after that. In 1896,
the Olympic games were revived
(
使再度兴起
) with the
same goal of pure amateur competition. But later
many countries
paid their athletes to
train year-round. (46) Now Olympic athletes are
eager to sell their
names to companies
that make everything from ski equipment to fast
food. Even the
games themselves have
become a huge business. Countries fight to hold
the Olympics
not only for honor, but
also for money.

Is Frustration a Bad Thing?
Frustration, according to The New
Oxford Dictionary of English , means the feeling
of being upset or annoyed, especially
because of inability to change or achieve
something.
It seems to prompt a
negative effect, so some people may regard it a
bad thing. They think
that frequent
frustration may give rise to serious mental
diseases. People who suffer from
such
mental illness would have a tendency to do some
violence or commit crimes. That
would
be a big threat to people’s life. Hence, they
regard frustration a bad thing.
But, just like a coin has two sides,
others do
n’t think it is a bad thing.
They believe
that it is very
beneficial to people. It always accompanies
success. It can make people have
press
and motivation to deal with all kinds of
difficulties and reach their final success. To
some extent, people with this thought
even hold the view that there is no success
without
frustration.
In my
opinion, frustration itself can not be regarded as
good or bad. What matters a
lot is
people’s attitude toward it. Undoubtedly,
frustration is everywhere in our life. If
we
are slaves to it, we are
easy to be pessimistic about everything and our
life would be in a
mess. But if we
overcome it and take it as our valuable source of
life experience, we may
finally enjoy
the happiness of success.

M: Frankly,
Sandra, I’m not very pleased with you. I don’t
know —
it’s
something
about the way you
approach your work, your attitude to it, that
worries me.
W: Oh really? How do you
mean?
M: Well, you don’t seem to
respond to me very well. In fact I find that
you’re not easy
to work
with. Yes, really Sandra, I find you rather
difficult.
W: I’m sorry you think that
way.
M: The point is
—
and I think I
should be truthful with you, I can’t honestly
recommend
somebody for
promotion who doesn’t take an acti
ve
interest in their work.
You can see
that, can’t you?
W: Er...
yes, I can and I’m sorry. I thought I was doing my
best.
M: Maybe, but you
don’t seem to enjoy your work. I mean, are you
happy at LTV?
Perhaps you
need a change. Have you ever thought about working
somewhere
else? You know, a different
sort of job.
W: Well, no. It’s not
that. I like it here. I like working for LTV. I
think television is exciting.
It’s just that my job, what I do, seems
so boring, so repetitive. I don’t feel
as
if I’m getting
anywhere.
M: I see. Yes, I
think I understand how you feel. I’m glad you told
me. But you’ve got
to
realize, Sandra, that we can’t all do exciting
work all the time.
W: Yes, I
know that.
M: Look, this is what I
think we’d better do. Bill Fletcher who

M: Yes, but
think of the cost! Going abroad is very expensive.
W: Oh, it isn’t, Steve. Not these

Juliet. The best thing about having a holiday here
in Britain is that
it’s cheaper. And
another thing, the traveling would be easier. No
boats, planes or
anything.

W: Even so,
we’ve been to most of the interesting places in
Britain already. What’s the
point in seeing them again? Anyway, we
can travel round Britain whenever we like.
There’s no point in wasting our summer
holiday here.
M: Mm, I
suppose you’re right. Nevertheless, what I can’t
stand is all the bother with
foreign currency, changing money and
all that when we go abroad. I hate all that.
And it’s so confusing.
W: Oh, don’t be silly,
Steve.
M: And what’s more, I
can’t speak any of the languages —
you know that. It’s all
right
for you. You can speak
foreign languages.
W: Exactly. You see,
what I’d really like to do is practice my French
and Spanish. It
would help
me a lot at work.
M: Mm, but that’s no

W: But just think
of the new places we’d see, the people we’d

Passage One
Probably
every town in the United States has a post office.
Some are very small,
and you may also
find them in the corner of a shop. Others are
large buildings. They are
open five
days a week and Saturday morning. From Monday to
Friday they are usually
open from 8:30
a.m. to 4:30 p.m.
If you know how much
the postage is for your letter, you can buy stamps
at any
window. In some post offices you
can buy stamps from machines. Stamps are sold at
many different prices, from one cent to

Passage Two
Computers are causing a new revolution
on university campuses today. At this
moment, students throughout North
America are editing term papers on computers.
They are calculating statistics. They
are writing reports. They are designing new
products
—
all on
personal computers.
Today’s computer
revolution is a major force on campus. In fact,
students
who

don’t own computers often feel that
they are at a disadvantage. In many cases, they
have
to borrow one or pay
for time at a computer center. Personal computers
are very common,
and throughout North
America certain colleges and universities are now
requiring
students to buy their own.
Some educators don’t like today’s
emphasis on computers. They recognize
the importance of computer literacy,
but they don’t believe in doing everything
by
computer. Most students
prefer the computer, however. As psychology
student Kevin
McFarley says, “Right
now, I’m completing a project for a statistics
class. I don’t mind
calculating statistics manually.
Without the computer, though, this project would
take
weeks to finish. At this moment,
the computer is doing some calculations that would
take me two weeks to figure. How can a
human being compete with that!”
Questions 29 to 31 are based on the
passage you have just heard.
29. Which
of the following can show us that computers are
causing a new revolution
on our
university campus today?
30. What’s the
attitude of student Kevin McFarley toward computer
calculation?
31. What could
the best title for the passage be?
Passage Three
In all
economic systems today, most businesses of any
size rely on one system of
organization: the division of labor.
This means that the workers are specialized. Each
worker has a particular duty to perform
as one part of the whole operation.
A
good example of the division of labor is an
assembly line in an automobile factory.
One worker may install a door while
another installs the hood. The others add lights,
windshield wipers, and so on. Normally,
workers stay in one place, and a convey-or belt
moves the product to them. If one
worker had the responsibility of producing an
entire
car, he or she might be able to
complete one each. By comparison, factories with
assembly
lines may produce an average
of about 35 cars a year per worker.
The
division of labor permits mass production, but it
does have some disadvantages.
For one
thing, few people know or understand all aspects
of an operation. In addition,
mass
production may be more efficient, but many workers
complain that they get little
job
satisfaction from working on one small duty, day
after day. To them, there is much
more
satisfaction in doing a job from start to finish.
Band Two 187
Questions 32 to
35 are based on the passage you have just heard.
32. How many cars would one worker
produce in a year with assembly lines?
33. What is the disadvantage of the
division of labor according to the passage?
34. According to the passage, why do
many workers complain about the division
of labor?
35. What could the
best title for the passage be?
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 42 with the
exact
words you have just heard. For
blanks numbered from 43 to 45 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 your own words. Finally, when the
passage is read
for the third time, you
should check what you have written.
Some Americans who travel to foreign
countries for the first time are (36) shocked
at the differences that they find. Here
are (37) two that might surprise them.
One difference between the U.S. and
other countries is in how people (38) stand
in l
ine. Most Americans
don’t think about how they stand in line; they
(39) assume that
everyone
stands in line in the same way. People do not
stand in line in the same way, of
course. In some countries they stand
far (40) apart, in other countries they stand
close
together. In some countries they
stand quietly, in other countries they (41) push
and
shove.
Another
difference might shock Americans who travel. In
the United States, many
Americans have
(42) pets. Americans like animals, especially dogs
and cats. They (43)

take good care of their pets. They give
them special pet food and they make special beds
for them. If the pets get sick,
Americans take them to the
vet(
兽医
). In many countries,
however, animals do not live in
people’s houses. (44) They do not get
s
pecial food or
special
treatment. They live in the streets and take care
of themselves. If they get sick
and
hungry, they often die. (45) Americans do not
understand this attitude toward
Animals.

Part I. Writing
Overseas Study at an Early Age
Nowadays more and more parents are
eager to send their children to study abroad
before they finish high school by
whatever means and at whatever cost. It is quite
understandable for parents to send
their children to study overseas because they
place
high expectations on their
children. They are encouraged by the success
stories of those
who have completed
their overseas study. With the development of
economy, companies
and institutions at
home are giving more and more emphasis on overseas
experiences, too.
Consequently,
pursuing overseas study became a kind of short cut
in gaining a better
future. Moreover,
there is still one underlying reason for this
rush-economic reason. The
rapid
economic progress in the past few years in China
has enabled more and more
parents to
afford the huge cost for their children’s overseas
study.
As for our college
students, overseas study is surely a helpful way
to get both
advanced knowledge and
necessary experiences, but overseas study at an
early age is neither
necessary nor
beneficial. The students may be too young to
either tend themselves or
think for
themselves. I do think that overseas study can
contribute to one’s self
-improvement,
but it’s better to be pursued after one
has finished his college stud
y at home,
when
he is more capable of learning and
living on his own.

文章的第四段对

,因此,
D

only once. After you
hear a question,
you must choose the best answer from the four
choices marked A, B, C and
D. Then
write the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet
2.
Passage One
Experts say
some farming activities are seriously damaging
Earth’s environment.
Bad
farming methods can damage soil, forests and water
supplies. They also have caused
some
plants and animals to disappear.
Two
groups now say that bad farming methods are
threatening the ability of farmers
to
produce enough food to feed the world population
in the future.
The groups used
satellite images, maps and modern equipment to
study the effect
of agriculture on the
environment. The study found that the destruction
of soil is widespread.
Important
organic nutrients are being removed from farmland.
Agriculture uses seventy percent of the
freshwater in the world each year. The
study found that many farmers are
wasting water supplies. In addition, chemicals
designed to protect crops may pollute
waterways.
The report also says as much
as thirty percent of the world’s forests have been
cut
down so the land could
be used for agriculture. This has led to a severe
loss of wildlife
and their
environments.

Questions 26 to 28 are based on the
passage you have just heard.
26. What
are the aspects that farming activities are
damaging according to the
passage?
27. How can the group carry out their
studies?
28. According to this passage,
why does wildlife suffer severe loss?
Passage Two
If you are like
most people, your intelligence varies from season
to season. You are
probably a lot
sharper in the spring than you are at any other
time of year. A noted
scientist,
E
llsworth Huntington, concluded from
other men’s work and his own, that
different climate and temperature have
a definite effect on our mental abilities.
He found that cool weather is much more
favorable for creative thinking than is
summer heat. This does not mean that
all people are less intelligent in summer than
they are during the rest of the year.
It does mean, however, that the mental abilities
of
large numbers of people tend to be
lowest in the summer.
Spring appears to
be the best period of the year for thinking. One
reason may
be that in the spring a
man’s mental abilities are affected by the same
factors that bring
about
great changes in all of nature.
Fall is
the next best season, then winter. As for summer,
it seems to be a good time
to take a
long vacation from thinking.

30. Why is
summer the worst season for thinking according to
the passage?
31. Which of the following
statements is not true according to the passage?
Passage Three
For good or
bad, computers are now part of our daily lives.
With the price of a
small home computer
now being lower, experts predict that before long,
all schools and
businesses and most
families in the rich parts of the world will own a
computer of some
kind. Among the
general public, computers arouse strong feelings
—
people either love
them or hate them.
The
computer lovers talk about how useful computers
can be in business, in
education and in
their home
—
apart from all
the games, you can do your accounting
on them, use them to control your
central heating, and in some places even do your
shopping with them. Computers, they
say, will also bring some leisure, as more and
more unpleasant jobs are taken over by
computerized robots.
The haters, on the
other hand, argue that computers bring not leisure
but unemployment.
They worry, too, that
people who spend all their time talking to
computers
will forget how to talk to
each other. And anyway, they ask, what’s wrong
with
going
shopping and
learning languages in the classroom with real
teachers? But their biggest
fear is
that computers may eventually take over human
beings altogether.
Band Two 197

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 your own words. Finally, when the
passage is read
for the third time, you
should check what you have written.
Lack of persistence is the reason most
people fail in attaining their goals. Many
organizational analysts and (36) career
consultants consider persistence to be the (37)
key to
success at both the
organizational and the (38) personal level.
Success (39) seldom comes
easily on the
first try. What (40) separates the successful from
the unsuccessful is (41)
persistence.
Successful people also fail (42)
occasionally but they do not let their failures
(43) defeat
their spirit. Successful
people (44) learn from defeats, revise their
strategy as needed
and try again. And
again. And again until they succeed. Unsuccessful
people try something
one or two times
and when it fails they give up, usually passing
the blame on to
someone or something
else, (45) and learning nothing from their
experience. Successful
people expect
periodic defeats, learn what went wrong and why,
don’t waste time looking
for
someone to blame, make necessary adjustments, and
try again. (46) If you are
persistent,
you will almost inevitably succeed. If you are not
persistent, you will almost
certainly
fail.
