14、s a lot of traffic everywhere today because of the football game. Q: What do we learn about the woman from the conversation? 14. W: May I make a recommendation, sir? Our seafood with this special sauce is very good. M: Thank you, but I dont eat shellfish. Im allergic to it. Q: Where does this conver

18、out the speakers from the conversation? Long ConversationConversation One M: When I say I live in Sweden, people always want to know about the seasons. W: The seasons? M: Yeah, you know how cold it is in winter? What is it like when the days are so short? W: So what is it like? M: Well, it is cold ,
19、very cold in winter. Sometimes it is cold as 26 degrees below centigrade. And of course when you go out, youll wrap up warm. But inside in the houses its always very warm, much warmer than at home. Swedish people always complain that when they visit England, the houses are cold even in the good wint
20、er. W: And what about the darkness? M: Well, yeah, around Christmas time theres only one hour of daylight, so you really looks forward to the spring. It is sometimes a bit depressing. But you see the summers are amazing, from May to July in the North of Sweden the sun never sets. Its still light in
21、the midnight. You can walk in the mountains and read a newspaper. W: Oh, yeah, the land of the midnight sun. M: Yeah, thats right, but its wonderful. You wont stay up all night. And the Swedes makes most of it often they started work earlier in summer and then leave at about 2 or 3 in the afternoon,
22、 so that they can really enjoy the long summer evenings. Theyd like to work hard, but play hard, too. I think Londoners work longer hours, but Im not sure this is a good thing.

M: Thats a very good question. I dont think there is any,
24、 specifically. W: For example, in your case, what was your educational background? M: Well, I did a degree in French at Nottingham. After that, I did careers work in secondary schools like the careers guidance people. Here is in the university. Then I went into local government because I found I was
25、 more interested in the administrative side. Then progressed on to universities. So there wasnt any plan and there was no specific training. There are plenty of training courses in management techniques and committee work which you can attend now. W: But in the first place, you did a French degree.
26、M: In my time, there wasnt a degree you could do for administration. I think most of the administrators Ive come across have degrees and all sorts of things. W: Well, I know in my case, I did an English literature degree and I didnt really expect to end up doing what I am doing now. M: Quite. W: But

What was the mans major at university?Q: 24: What was the mans job in secondary schools?Q: 25: What attracted the man to Nottingham University? Section B Passage One While Gail Obcamp, an American artist wa
29、s giving a speech on the art of Japanese brush painting to an audience that included visitors from Japan, she was confused to see that many of her Japanese listeners have their eyes closed. Were they tuned off because an American had the nerve to instruct Japanese in their own art form or they delib
30、erately tried to signal their rejection of her? Obcamp later found out that her listeners were not being disrespectful. Japanese listeners sometimes closed their eyes to enhance concentration. Her listeners were showing their respect for her by chewing on her words. Some day you may be either a spea
31、ker or a listener in a situation involving people from other countries or members of minority group in North America. Learning how different cultures signal respect can help you avoid misunderstandings. Here are some examples. In the deaf culture of North America, many listeners show applause not by
32、 clapping their hands but by waving them in the air. In some cultures, both overseas and in some minority groups in North America, listeners are considered disrespectful if they look directly at the speaker. Respect is shown by looking in the general direction but avoiding direct eye contact. In som
33、e countries, whistling by listeners is a sign of approval while in other courtiers it is a form of insult.Questions: 26, What did Obcamps speech focus on?27, Why do Japanese listeners sometimes close their eyes while listening to a speech?28, What does the speaker try to explain? Passage Two Chris i
34、s in charge of purchasing and maintaining equipment in his Division at Taxlong Company. He is soon going to have an evaluation interview with his supervisor and the personnel director to discuss the work he has done in the past year. Salary, promotion and plans for the coming year will also be discu
35、ssed at the meeting. Chris has made several changes for his Division in the past year. First, he bought new equipment for one of the departments. He has been particularly happy about the new equipment because many of the employees have told him how much it has helped them. Along with improving the e
36、quipment, Chris began a program to train employees to use equipment better and do simple maintenance themselves. The training saved time for the employees and money for the company. Unfortunately, one serious problem developed during the year. Two employees the Chris hired were stealing, and he had
37、to fire them. Chris knows that a new job for a purchasing and maintenance manager for the whole company will be open in a few months, and he would like to be promoted to the job. Chris knows, however, that someone else wants that new job, too. Kim is in charge of purchasing and maintenance in anothe
38、r Division of the company. She has also made several changes over the year. Chris knows that his boss likes Kims work, and he expects that his work will be compared with hers. Questions 29 to 32 are based on the passage you have just heard.29. What is Chriss main responsibility at Taxlong Company?30
39、. What problem did Chris encounter in his Division?31. What does Chris hope for in the near future?32. What do we learn about Kim from the passage?Passage Three Proverbs, sometimes called sayings, are examples of folk wisdom. They are little lessons which older people of a culture pass down to the y
40、ounger people to teach them about life. Many proverbs remind people of the values that are important in the culture. Values teach people how to act, what is right, and what is wrong. Because the values of each culture are different, understanding the values of another culture helps explain how peopl
41、e think and act. Understanding your own culture values is important too. If you can accept that people from other cultures act according to their values, not yours, getting along with them will be much easier. Many proverbs are very old. So some of the values they teach may not be as important in th
42、e culture as they once were. For example, Americans today do not pay much attention to the proverb “Haste makes waste”, because patience is not important to them. But if you know about past values, it helps you to understand the present and many of the older values are still strong today. Benjamin F
43、ranklin, a famous American diplomat, writer and scientist, died in 1790, but his proverb “Time is money” is taken more seriously by Americans of today than ever before. A study of proverbs from around the world shows that some values are shared by many cultures. In many cases though, the same idea i
44、s expressed differently. Questions 33- 35 are based on the passage you have just heard.33. Why are proverbs so important?34. According to the speaker what happens to some proverbs with the passage of time?35. What do we learn from the study of proverbs from around the world? Section CCompound Dictat
45、ion Our lives are woven together. As much as I enjoy my own company, I no longer imagine I can get through a single day much less all my life completely on my own. Even if I am on vacation in the mountains, I am eating food someone else has grown, living in a house someone else has built, wearing cl
46、othes someone else has sewn from cloth woven by others, using electricity someone else is distributing to my house. Evidence of interdependence is everywhere; we are on this journey together. As I was growing up, I remember being carefully taught that independence not interdependence was everything.
47、 “Make your own way”,” Stand on your own two feet” or my mothers favorite remark when I was face-to-face with consequences of some action: Now that youve made your bed, lie on it. Total independence is a dominant thing in our culture. I imagine that what my parents were trying to teach me was to tak
48、e responsibilities for my actions and my choices. But the teaching was shaped by our cultural imagines. And instead, I grew up believing that I was supposed to be totally independent and consequently became very reluctant to ask for help. I would do almost anything not to be a burden, and not requir
49、e any help from anybody.作文范文Nothing Succeeds Without a Strong WillThere is an old saying: where there is a will, there is a way. It tells us that a strong will is the most essential quality that anyone who wants to achieve success. It can contribute a lot to ones success. Although “All roads lead to
50、 Rome”, none of them is completely smooth. Our life is filled with obstacles which may make us feel so hopeless that we may choose to give up. At the crucial moment, strong will helps a lot. As a matter of fact, the ability to work through difficult situation and unfortunate events with strong will
51、can make one stronger and more capable. In other words, if we want to realize lifes goal, we must keep forging ahead with strong consciousness.From what has been discussed above, we can see that the establishment of tough determination is of great importance to everyone. With a strong will, includin
52、g our knowledge, we will be able to deal with any situation in our life. Whatever we do, as long as we stick to and do not give up easily, we will realize the goal at last.Nothing Succeeds Without a Strong WillNo great work can be performed without will. We envy famous men and imagine that fame was
53、due to some trock of luck. But when we know their histories, we find that it is long years of will and constant effort that have brought about their success. Just as we cant reach the top of a mountain without climbing, we cant achieve success without will.The modern society provides people with mor
54、e opportunities than before, and there are stories which tell us the possibility of becoming successful overnight. Actually that is not the case. Before these people become successful, a lot of hard work has been done, unnoticed mostly. What we usually see is the result, but what we ignore is a long
55、 process of struggling forward and wrestling with internal or external obstacles. Take quitting smoking for example, which is , to most people , a difficult task, so people always give up the idea for they dont have the strong will.In a nutshell, strong will is an important condition or role of the
56、success the individual should desire to maintain forever. There is no instant success in this world. Strong will is the best policy to make your life distinct and your dreams come true.Nothing Succeeds Without a Strong Will As we have read from above, quitting-smoking seems easy, but in reality it i
57、s rarely achieved. There is something provoking and interesting in this paradox, just because sword does not wear the stone as dripping water does. The ability to do something over and over again in a short time may imply its easiness, but in a long run, a lifetime maybe, things turn out to be quite
58、 the opposite. Also, as is often the case, one may have obtained all the tools and opportunities to achieve something, but in the end they still fail due to the will shortage. So how could we avoid the dilemma? Here is the prime condition of success: will and perseverance. Concentrate your energy, thought and mind exclusively on the business in which you are engaged, hang on in there and be patient, for, as Emerson put it, no one can cheat you out of your ultimate success but yourself. 26
