Part I Writing
As is shown in the picture, a boy is telling a girl his experience in making friends.He, like many of modern people, tends to use social networking websites to meet new friends.They love the time they spend with their new acquaintances on the Internet.In my opinion, it?s total madness for people to do that.The use of social networking websites in cultivating friendship influences our life in a bad way.Firstly, the use of social networking websites may undermine our interpersonal skills in dealing with people in our real life.Secondly, interacting with new friends online may estrange us instead of drawing us closer, though often such communication does offer some fun.Lastly, friendship got by means of those websites may not last long, which may render us a feeling of great loss afterwards.In my opinion, it?s time we took action to cultivate real friendship for our own benefit.For one thing, we should adopt a correct attitude towards friendship, which involves substantial help with our study or work in daily life, not in the virtual world.For another, we should step aside from the shining pictures, video clips, or voice messages passed to and fro via the websites, and actually meet new friends in person to have a chance to savor the sweetness friends can bring us.Part II Listening Comprehension
Section A Directions: In this section, you will hear two long conversations.At the end of each conversation, you will hear some questions.Both the conversation 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 mark the corresponding letter on Answer Sheet 1with a single line through the centre.Conversation One
W: Hello, Professor Smith.M: Yes, Lily, any problem with the writing assignment? W: Yes.I?m about to write my research paper summary.I?m confused about the difference between a research paper and a research paper summary.M: I have a questions, have you finished writing your research paper? W: Not yet, I?m in the middle of it.M: Then, it?s advisable for you to wait after you finish your report.W: Why can?t I do these two at the same time? M: No, you can?t.To write a summary, you should first of all need to finish your report.Then, review your main ideas, and condense them into a short document.W: I see.The best way to begin writing the research summary is by reviewing my report.M: Yes.That?s right.W: It seems I?d better write my report at a faster speed.M: Ok.And, as you said just now, you don?t know the difference between the report and the summary, right? W: Yes, I do.As I understand, they both write about the same thing.The difference is their length, one is longer and the other is a little bit shorter.M: Yes, you can say that again.Let?s talk about their differences in class at a later time.But, in structure, they?re similar.W: Similar? I know, for a research paper, it has a beginning, a middle and an end.M: Yes, so has the report summary.The beginning should introduce the topic and how you plan to address it.The middle of the summary will provide the main points you use to support your argument.The end of the document should summarize the conclusions your paper reaches.W: It seems to be so complex and so hard.M: You?ll be better off if you keep two things in mind.One is to be concise, and the other is not to use too complicated terms.Questions 1 to 4 are based on the conversation you have just heard.1.When is the right time to write a report summary? 2.How?s Lily?s research paper going for now? 3.What does the middle of a research paper summary write about? 4.What does the professor suggest Lily do at the end of the conversation?

Conversation Two
W: This is Lucy Bowen.I?m talking with Professor Jimmy Whitworth, from the London School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine.Welcome, Professor!M: It?s my honor to be here, and talk about a topic which may make the audience a little bit comfortable or horrible.That is, Ebola, which is spreading mostly in African countries.But, according to the news, more than 17,000 people in West Africa have survived Ebola infection.Sadly, doctors from the US National Institute of Health said, most of them will have long-lasting health problems.W: They have survived Ebola.That?s very lucky.But, again, they have to feel its potential challenges.M: Yes, you can say that again.The related study shows that survivors in Liberia had developed body weakness, memory loss and depressive symptoms in 6 months after leaving hospital.W: So, in a way, Ebola hasn?t gone away from these people.M: Yes.When people had memory loss, it tended to affect their daily living, for example, they couldn?t return to school or normal jobs, and some people may have terrible sleeping problems, regular headaches, and even some patients are “actively suicidal”.W: Is there any available ways to cure these problems? M: Well, we?re only trying to figure out what some of these problems are physical or mental.However, there?s still much to learn about Ebola?s other potential consequences, and there will be a long way to go before effective ways are found to cure them.Questions 5 to 8 are based on the conversation you have just heard.5.What were the speakers talking about?
6.How many patients survive Ebola infection in West Africa? 7.What symptoms did survivors in Liberia develop after leaving hospital? 8.What problems does memory loss cause for Ebola survivors?

Section B Directions: In this section, you will hear two passages.At the end of each passage, you will hear some questions.Both the passage 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 mark the corresponding letter on Answer Sheet 1 with a single line through the centre.Passage One
Sports enthusiasts at every level are clearly aware that the ?mental? part of performance can be just as important as the physical.Good performance in gymnastics is often said to 90% mental and 10% physical.Other sports see ?hidden? factors, such as confidence and a ?cool? head under pressure, make up more than 50% of success.Many will talk about ?being in the zone? when they perform at their peak.Olympic 100-metre gold medalist Linford Christie described his focus on the starting line as being like looking down a long, straight tune.His ability to blank out other competitors, the roar of the crowd, gave him those extra advantages over his rivals.In sport, psychology matters—and at every level.If you go onto the tennis court telling yourself that you?ve never beaten Joe before and that you?re not going to beat him today, then the result is very predictable.So, optimism boosts sporting performance, both at team and individual levels.Research into baseball and basketball teams in the USA revealed that teams have their own styles.The style used by teams after a defeat or when under pressure in the last few minutes of a game will determine future performance, regardless of the quality of the team.Those who are optimistic in the face of defeat are more likely to be successful in their next game;those who explain failures negatively will perform more poorly.Research into swimmers revealed that the same trend holds for individual athletes.Quite simply, when under pressure optimistic sportsmen and women try harder—and they recover from defeat more quickly.Questions 9 to 11 are based on the passage you have just heard.9.How much will confidence account for in gymnasts? success? 10.How did Linford Christie gain extra advantages over his rivals? 11.How can optimism help boost performance in sports?

Passage Two
Today, let?s learn something about Gettysburg National Military Park, which was built in memory of the Battle of Gettysburg.Fought over the first three days of July 1863, the Battle of Gettysburg was one of the most crucial battles of the Civil War.The battle brought disaster to the residents of Gettysburg.Every farm field or garden was a graveyard.Churches, public buildings and even private homes were hospitals, filled with wounded soldiers.By January 1864, the last patients were gone as were the surgeons, guards, nurses, tents and cookhouses.Only a temporary cemetery on the hillside remained as a testament to the courageous battle to save lives that took place at Camp Letterman.Prominent Gettysburg residents became concerned with the poor condition of soldiers? graves scattered over the battlefield and at hospital sites, and pleaded with Pennsylvania Governor Andrew Curtin for state support to purchase a portion of the battlefield to be set aside as a final resting place for the defenders of the Union cause.In 1864, a group of concerned citizens established the Gettysburg Battlefield Memorial Association whose purpose was to preserve portions of the battlefield as a memorial to the Union Army that fought here.A Federally-appointed commission of Civil War veterans oversaw the park?s development as a memorial to both armies by identifying and marking the lines of battle.Administration of the park was transferred to the Department of the Interior, National Park Service in 1933, which continues in its mission to protect, preserve and interpret the Battle of Gettysburg and the Gettysburg Address to park visitors.Questions 12 to 15 are based on the passage you have just heard.12.What did the Civil War bring to the local people in Gettysburg? 13.Who started the campaign for the protection of soldier graves? 14.When was the Gettysburg Battlefield Memorial Association established? 15.What was the responsibility of the veteran commission in building the park?

Section C Directions: In this section, you will hear recordings of lectures or talks followed by some questions.The recordings will be played only once.After you hear a question, you must choose the best answer from the four choices marked A), B), C)and D).Then mark the corresponding letter on Answer Sheet 1 with a single line through the centre.Now listen to the following recording and answer questions 16 to 19.Since the Industrial Revolution, natural habitats have been destroyed, and environments have been polluted, causing great harm to human beings, such as diseases in both humans and many other species of animals.In today?s lesson, I will talk about land pollution, the sources of the pollution, its consequences and a few things we can do to prevent further pollution and protect our environment.To begin with, let?s expand a little bit on the question, what is land pollution? Land pollution is the destruction of the earth?s land surfaces, often directly or indirectly as a result of man?s activities and their misuse of land resources.It occurs when waste is not dealt with properly, or can occur when humans throw chemicals onto the soil.Mining activities have also contributed to the worsening of the earth?s surface.Human actions have caused many large areas of land to lose or reduce their capacity to support life forms.This is known as land degradation.Note that land degradation can result from many factors, and land pollution is only one of them.With regard to different sources of land pollution, many publications group them differently.Let us see these four main sources: Firstly, solid waste is the first source of land pollution.Solid waste includes all the various kinds of rubbish we make at home, school, hospitals, markets and workplaces.Things like paper, plastic containers, bottles, cans, food and even used cars and broken electronic goods, broken furniture and hospital waste are all examples of solid waste.Some of these can be easily coped with or decay into organic matter.Examples include food droppings, paper products as well as plants like grass and tree branches.However, others are not environment friendly, and they include plastics, metals and aluminum cans, broken computer and car parts.Because these do not easily decay, they pile up in places where all the city?s rubbish are sent and stored, where they stay for thousands of years.These bring great harm to the land and people around it.The second source is the use of pesticides and fertilizers.Many farming activities engage in the application of fertilizers, pesticides and insecticides for higher crop yield.This is good because we get more food, but can you think of what happens to the chemicals that end up on the crops and soils? Sometimes, insects and small animals are killed and bigger animals that eat tiny animals(as in food chains)are also harmed.Finally, the chemicals may be washed down as it rains and over time, they end up in the water, causing water pollution.The third source is……
16.In the eyes of the speaker, who should be responsible for land pollution? 17.Why does the speaker mention “broken electronic goods”? 18.Why do people use fertilizers in farming activities? 19.What will the speaker probably talk about immediately after the passage?
16.A 17.B 18.C 19.B
Now listen to the following recording and answer questions 20 to 22.Almost 70 million children across the world are prevented from going to school each day, a study published today reveals.Those living in north-eastern Africa are the least likely to receive a good education—or any education at all, an umbrella body of charities and teaching unions known as the Global Campaign for Education has found.Somalia ranks the world?s poorest countries according to their education systems.It has the least functional system in the world with just 10% of children going to primary school, while Eritrea is second worst.Haiti, Comoros and Ethiopia are in the similar situation.The report?s authors, from charities including Plan and ActionAid, measured the likelihood of children attending primary school, a country?s political will to improve its education system, and the quality of its schools to create the rankings.The study—Back to School? The Worst Places in the World—warns that attempts to ensure all children can attend school are under severe threat.By 2015, there will be more children out of school than there are today, unless the richest countries dramatically increase the aid they give to the poorest nations, the authors argue.“Poor countries are facing a worsening situation, as severe and deepening pressure from the economic downturn caused by the crisis of the rich world?s banking system bites on their budgets,” David Archer, one of the authors from ActionAid says.Some £2.9bn is expected to be lost to education budgets in sub-Saharan Africa because of the economic crisis, he warns.Kenya, which is rated in the 50 worst countries for education, delayed plans to provide a free primary school education to 8.3 million children in September.The global economic crisis was one reason given for this.Girls are far less likely to attend school than boys in many of the world?s poorest countries, the authors have found.In Malawi, of those that enroll, 22.3% of boys complete primary compared to 13.8% of girls.In rural Burkina Faso, 61% of girls are married by the age of 18 and over 85% never get to see the inside of a secondary school.Most rich countries have failed to keep their promises to help poor countries improve their education systems, according to the study.While the UK is active in aiding those countries, along with the Netherlands, Norway and Switzerland and Ireland, others—such as Greece, Austria, Italy and Germany—are not giving nearly as much as they should.20.What is said about Somalia? 21.What should be done to prevent more children dropping out of school by 2015? 22.What does the study say about girls in the world?s poorest countries?
20.A 21.C 22.D
Now listen to the following recording and answer questions 23 to 25.Probably the best known nutrition fact about iron is that meats—particularly red meats—are rich in iron.While this is true, it is also true that a number of plant foods are also rich in iron.It may come as a surprise that researchers have found that people eating plant-based diets eat as much or more iron as people who regularly rely on animal foods.And, you?ll see that the recommended list of excellent iron sources is largely dominated by plant foods.Without question, more human health problems worldwide are caused by iron deficiency than by lack of any other nutrient.Less well known is the fact that excessive iron stores are also responsible for a large burden of illness worldwide.As such, iron is a very important nutrient to understand not only for researchers and nutritionists but everyone, since we need to be aware of finding the right iron balance from our foods.But, iron really plays a big role in health support.All of the tissues in our body need a near constant supply of oxygen to maintain life.We maintain this oxygen delivery by the red cells in our blood.These have an iron-containing protein called hemoglobin, which is a perfect transporter for oxygen, in that it both picks up and releases oxygen in an exact and targeted way.The average man has about 2 grams of iron in his blood cells at any given time while women have about 1.6 grams.If the dietary iron intake falls below daily needs and this storage amount goes down, the ability to tolerate bursts of exercise will deteriorate.The reduction in blood count related to having low iron stores is called anemia.In addition to the key role iron plays in transporting oxygen to tissues, it also is necessary to support proper metabolism for muscles and other active organs.Almost all of the cells in our body burn dietary calories to create energy through a process that requires iron.When iron stores get low, this process gets compromised, and generalized fatigue can occur.What does the speaker say about iron and health? 24.Why is iron important in health support? 25.What is the speaker mainly talking about in the passage?

Part IV Translation
China is rapidly getting older.Three decades ago, only 5 percent of the population was over 65;today, 123 million people, or 9 percent of the population, are over this age.By 2050 China?s older population will likely swell to 330 million and younger generations face an unprecedented burden of care.In the late 1970s and early 1980s, the government advocated a “l(fā)ater, longer, fewer” lifestyle, encouraging people to marry later, have wide gaps between children and fewer children overall.It also set the controversial one-child policy.These were attempts to curb population growth in a bid to help modernise the economy.However, the population control policy resulted in an extremely low fertility rate, further increasing the proportion of the older population.

2017年12月大學(xué)英語六級聽力真題解析
2017.12月份的六級考試已經(jīng)落下帷幕,以下是對聽力部分考題的一個解析,希望對同學(xué)們有所幫助.Conversation One
M: And now, for the latter side of the news, Europe is setting an example for the rest of the world when it comes to food waste.W: That’s right, John.This week, the Italian government passed legislation that aims to dramatically reduce the amount of food waste in the country.Q1:New laws have been put into place that will make it easier for farms and supermarkets to donate and sell foods to those who are in need.M: Yes, in an addition to this, businesses will now be rewarded for successful efforts to cut food waste.W: Italy is not the only country to focus on reducing food waste.Just earlier this year, Q2:the European parliament voted in favor of legislation that would stop grocery giants from unfair trading practices that result in overproduction, thus creating waste.M: In France, Q3:the government has banned supermarkets from throwing away edible foods and imposed harsh penalties on businesses that fail to comply with the regulations.W: While there is still much progress to be made, other countries could learn a thing or two from the example set by France and Italy.In the United Sates, up to 40% of all food goes uneaten.Despite the fact that one in seven American households lacks regular access to good food, Q4:one major cause of this problem is the confusion over food expiration labels, which are currently not regulated by the government.M: All this could change soon.This wave of new laws in Europe will definitely put more pressure on law makers to reduce food waste here.We turn now to a spokesperson from Harvard University’s Food Law and Policy Clinic for more on the story.And now, let’s welcome professor Edward Baker to speak to us.從選項中不難看出,第一篇長對話的話題與食物浪費相關(guān),我們來看一下4道題目
1: What does the woman say about the new laws in Italy? 第一題四個選項主語一致,重點需要聽動賓搭配。文章當(dāng)中提到New laws have been put into place that will make it easier for farms and supermarkets to donate and sell foods to those who are in need.原文當(dāng)中的make it easier替換了選項當(dāng)中核心動詞facilitate,donate和選項當(dāng)中的donation進行了詞性替換,因此正確答案為C)They facilitate the donation of unsold foods to the needy.2: What did the European parliament do to reduce food waste? 第二題四個選項主語是it,聽音重心仍然放在后方的動賓搭配上,文中提到the European parliament voted in favor of legislation that would stop grocery giants from unfair trading practices that result in overproduction, thus creating waste.原文中干擾信息較多,只需抓住重點動詞stop和名詞overproduction,因此正確答案為B)It passed a law aiming to stop overproduction.3: What has the French government done recently? 第三題的正確答案為 D)It has banned supermarkets from dumping edible foods.原文中的throw away替換選項中的dump,其余部分均為原詞讀到。
4: What is the major cause of food waste in the United States? 對話結(jié)尾處聽到desipte,major,problem等表示強調(diào)的關(guān)鍵詞,需要特別關(guān)注后面播讀的內(nèi)容,后方讀到the confusion over food expiration labels,視聽一致選擇選項A
下面我們來看一下短文(passage)題目
Passage 1
Barbie dolls have a particular look to them.Q9:They are thin, tall, long legged and virtually unlike any real human being.Although, over the years, barbies had more than 180 different careers, including football coach, sign language teacher, ambassador, president and astronaut.Her body shape hasn’t changed much.Last year, MATEL, the company that makes Barbie dolls, added some barbies to its line to have a different skin tones and hair textures.There are now barbies 17 skin tones, 22 eye colours and 24 hair styles that choose from.Last year, MATEL also gave barbie a flat foot rather than 4 fingers to be in heels all the time like original barbie is.Now, they are introducing new barbies with 3 slightly different body shapes.On the original, tall and thin barbies would continue to be sold.In the statement on its website, the company says, it wants barbies to look more like a real people and to give girls everywhere, infinitely more ways that spark their imagination and play out the stories.Although many people say the new barbies are stepping in the right direction.Some people say they don’t go far enough.Q10:They say the new Barbie shapes could be even more different from the original tall-thin barbies.Sales of Barbie dolls has been falling every years since 2005 according to CBC news.The toys aren’t in stores yet, Q11:but they will be sold online at the Barbie website starting this week for 9 dollars and 99 cents.9.What do we know about the original Barbie dolls? 短文題型依據(jù)首尾原則,第一題一定要抓住文章的開頭,開頭部分讀到They are thin, tall, long legged and virtually unlike any real human being.視聽一致即可選出答案A
10.Why do some people feel unsatisfied with new Barbie dolls? 第十題是觀點處出題,文章出現(xiàn)了一些人的不同觀點They say the new Barbie shapes could be even more different from the original tall-thin barbies.可以看出Barbie并沒有做出足夠多的身體形狀上的改變,故答案為D
11.Where will the new Barbie dolls be sold first? 最后一題轉(zhuǎn)折處(but)出題,原文online at the Barbie website替換On the Internet,因此正確答案為C
最后我們來看最后一個題型講座和講話
講座和講話這個題型篇幅較長,每篇大約在400個單詞左右,所以更加需要同學(xué)們對于文章中關(guān)鍵詞的準確把握。首先講座開頭要注意主題的考察,特別要留意一些表達主題的句型,比如:Today, I‘d like to talk about/discuss···,The purpose of today's lecture is···等等
文章中間除了需要注意大家都比較熟悉的轉(zhuǎn)折因果類的邏輯關(guān)系詞之外,還要注意一些表示話題轉(zhuǎn)換的詞匯,比如now,next,another.另外就是文章中出現(xiàn)的一些設(shè)問句,以及觀點對比處等,下面我們以第一篇為例來看一下
Recording One
You dream about being a movie star.You live in a big house in Hollywood, go to the Oscars every year, and win.You will be rich and famous.Wait a minute.You also hate having your photos taken and you are very shy.So how could you ever become a movie star? Choosing a right career can be hard.Q16:Many people graduate from school or college not knowing what they want to do with their lives and get a job without really thinking about it.For some, things work out fine.But others often find themselves stuck in a job they hate.Your working life lasts in average 40 years, so it’s important to find a job you like and feel enthusiastic about.Luckily, there are many ways you can get help to do this.The Australian website www.tmdps.cn, compares choosing a career with going to the movies.Before you see a movie, you find out what films are showing.Q17:The site suggests you should do the same with your career.Find out what jobs are available and what your options are.Next, decide which movie you like best.If you are not a romantic person, you won’t want to see a love story.In other words, with your career, you should decide which job will suit your personality.Finally, decide how to get movie tickets and find out where the theater is before you go.With your career, you need to find information about where you can work and how to get a job in that profession.Q18:So, how do you start? Begin by asking yourself some questions, certain life experiences.Have you travelled overseas? Do you have any extra certificates at your degree? Such as the first aid license, for example.Your physical state and build can also affect which jobs you can do.A person, for example, who is allergic to cats will probably never become an animal doctor.Flight attendants, firefighters and police officers have to be over a certain height and be physically fit.Your personality matters too.Are you outgoing or shy? If you like working alone, a job that requires lots of team work might not suit you.Choosing a career can take time and a lot of thought.However, when you know you can look forward to working in your dream job, you will be glad you thought it through.16.What does the speaker say about many college graduates? 第一題根據(jù)慣常的主題考法定位在講座的開頭,再根據(jù)視聽一致的原則選出D答案.17.What does the Australia website suggest you do first to find a suitable job? 第二題四個選項全部都是動詞原形開頭,重點去聽動賓搭配,并且預(yù)測有可能是聽文章中表示建議的內(nèi)容,文章提到 The site suggests you should do the same with your career.Find out what jobs are available and what your options are.直接根據(jù)視聽一致選出B選項.18.What should you think about when you look for the right job according to the Australian website? 最后一題以結(jié)尾不斷出現(xiàn)的問句作為提示,而且問句后方的答案全部屬于qualifications,因此答案為A.

All my memories gathered ?round her Miner?s lady, stranger to blue water Dark and dusty, painted on the sky Misty taste of moonshine Teardrops in my eye
Country Roads, take me home To the place I belong West Virginia, mountain momma Take me home, country roads
I hear her voice In the morning hour she calls me The radio reminds me of my home far away And driving down the road I get a feeling That I should have been home yesterday, yesterday

11.A)They often take place in her major industries.B)British trade unions are more powerful.C)There are more trade union members in Britain.D)Britain loses more working days through strikes every year.12.A)Such strikes are against the British law.B)Such strikes are unpredictable.C)Such strikes involve workers from different trades.D)Such strikes occur frequently these days.13.A)Trade unions in Britain are becoming more popular.B)Most strikes in Britain are against the British law.C)Unofficial strikes in Britain are easier to deal with now.D)Employer-worker relations in Britain have become tenser.Strikes are very common in Britain.They are extremely harmful to its industries.In fact, there are other countries in Western Europe that lose more working days through strikes every year than Britain.The trouble with the strikes in Britain is that they occur in essential industries.There are over 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 try to improve working conditions.Trade unioners say that we must thank the unions for the great improvement in 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 the unofficial strike and was common until recently.Employers feel that unofficial strikes were most harmful because they would not be predicted.However, these unofficial strikes 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 11 to 13 are based on the passage you have just heard.11.In what way are strikes in Britain different from those in other European countries?(開頭)
12.Why are British employers so afraid of unofficial strikes?(most, because)13.What conclusion can be drawn from this passage?(結(jié)尾As a result)

I didn't spend 3 hours repairing your vacuum cleaner so that it could sit in the closet.I didn't teach because it's easy.[P49-Two] 15.A)How to handle spiders.B)Spiders in the United States.C)People' s fear of spiders.D)A special kind of spider.16.A)Most spiders will not bite even when handled.B)Most spiders are poisonous and dangerous.C)Most spiders are likely to attack people.D)Most spiders have sharp eyes.17.A)Because she cannot find a husband for herself.B)Because the female spider is larger than the male one.C)Because the female spider often eats her husband.D)Because she is a black female spider.You should not fear spiders because of their poison.Of all the spiders in North America, only one kind is really dangerous and most would not bite even if they were handled.They much prefer to run away or to drop to the ground on a thread of silk.Even so, when a spider runs directly toward a person, it gives the impression that it is about to attack.Actually, it cannot see the person in its way.The spider is too short-sighted to see things at a distance.It only wants to go where it will not be disturbed.In the United States one kind of spider is responsible for the frightening reputation of the rest.It is the Black Widow.So called becausethe female, which is larger than the male, often eats her husband after making love.The Black Widow is found in all states but is most common in the south and the west.She constructs a loose, irregular web under a pile of rowans or near the foundations of buildings where she is seldom disturbed.She is not an attacking spider and many people have proven this by letting her crawl over their hands.When she bites, it is usually in self-defence.In spite of the stories you may have heard, it is rare for a person to be bitten by a Black Widow and even more unusual for the bite to prove fatal.But remember that her poison is powerful and even though she is shy, she should be respected.Questions 15 to 17 are based on the passage you have just heard.15.What is this passage mainly about?
16.What do we learn about spiders from the passage?(only, most)
17.Why is the spider you just heard about called the Black Widow?(because)注:You should not fear spiders because of their poison.否定轉(zhuǎn)移 段子題:

student who doesn' t want to do any of these activities can go for a walk in the desert.Deep Springs is far from the world of restaurants and cinemas.There is not even a television set on campus.Questions 17 to 20 are based on the passage you have just heard.17.What is the total number of students at Deep Springs College? 18.What is true of the campus of Deep Springs College? 19.Which of the following is mentioned in the passage? 20.What can students at Deep Springs do in their spare time? 注:選項短,細節(jié)題,邊聽邊看選項。

11.A)The color of the dog.B)The price of the dog.C)Whether the dog will fit the environment.D)Whether the dog will get along with the other pets in the house.12.A)It must be trained so it won't bite.B)It needs more love and care.C)It demands more food and space.D)It must be looked after carefully.13.A)They are less likely to run away.B)It's easier for their masters to train them.C)They are less likely to be shy with human beings.D)It's easier for them to form a relationship with their masters.Most people have had a dog or wanted one as their companion at some time in their lives.If you are thinking of buying a dog, however, you should first decide what sort of companion you need and whether the dog is likely to be happy in the surroundings you can provide.Specialist advice is available to help you choose the most suitable breed of dog.But in part, the decision depends on common sense.Most breeds were originally developed to perform specific tasks.So, if you want a dog to protect you or your house, for example, you should choose a breed that has the right size and characteristics.You must also be ready to devote a good deal of time to train the dog when it is young and give it the exercise it needs throughout its life, unless you live in the country and can let it run freely.Dogs are demanding pets.Whereas cats identify with the house and so are content if their place there is secure, a dog identifies with its master and consequently wants him to show proof of his affection.The best time to buy a baby-dog is when it is between 6 and 8 weeks old so that it can transfer its affection from its mother to its master.If baby dogs have not established a relationship with the human being until they are over three months old, their stronger relationship will always be with dogs.They are likely to be too shy when they are brought out into the world to become good pets.Questions 11 to 13 are based on the passage you have just heard.11.What' s mentioned as a consideration in buying a dog?
12.Why does the speaker say a dog is a more demanding pet than a cat? 13.Why is it advised to buy baby dogs under three months old? 注:1.demanding 苛求的

Probably you cannot answer that question quickly.In 1900 the world's use of paper was about one kilogram for each person a year.Now some countries use as much as 50 kilograms of paper for each person a year.Countries like the United States, England and Sweden use more paper than other countries.Paper, like many other things that we use today, was first made in China.In Egypt and the West, paper was not very commonly used before the year 1400.The Egyptians wrote on a kind of material made of a water plant.Europeans used parchment for many hundreds of years.Parchment was very strong;it was made from
the skin of certain young animals.We have learnt of the most important facts of European history from records that were kept on parchment.Questions 17 to 20 are based on the passage you have just heard.17.Which of the following is not mentioned about the invention of paper? 18.When did the Egyptians begin to use paper widely?
19.Which of the following countries uses most paper for each person a year? 20.What is the main idea of this short talk?
