第1题
Everyone has a moment in history, which belongs particularly to him. It is the moment when
his emotions achieve their most powerful sway over him; and afterward when you say to this person "the world today" or "life" or "reality", he will assume that you mean this moment, cyan if it is fifty years past. The world, through Ms unleashed emotions, imprinted itself upon him, and he carries the stamp of that passing moment forever.

For me, this moment—four years in a moment in history—was the war. The war was and is reality for me. I still instinctively live and think in its atmosphere. These are some of its characteristics: Franklin Delano Roosevelt is the president of the United States, and he always has been. The other two eternal world leaders are Winston Churchill and Joseph Stalin. America is not, never has been, and never will be what the songs and poems call it, a land of plenty. Nylon, meat, gasoline, and steel are rare. There are too many jobs and not enough workers. Money is very easy to earn but rather hard to spend, because there isn't very much to buy. Trains are always late and always crowded with "service men". The war will always be fought very far from America, and it will never end. Nothing in America stands still for very long, including the people who are always either leaving or on leave. People in America cry often. Sixteen is the key, crucial and natural age for a human being to be, and people of all other ages are ranged in an orderly manner ahead of and behind you as a harmonious setting for the sixteen-year-olds of the world. When you are sixteen, adults are slightly impressed and almost intimidated by you. This is a puzzle finally solved by the realization that they foresee your military future: fighting for them. You do not foresee it. To waste anything in America is immoral. String and tinfoil are treasures. Newspapers are always crowded with strange maps and names of towns, and every few months the earth seems to lurch(突然倾斜) from its path when you see something in the newspapers, such as the time Mussolini, who almost seemed one of the eternal leaders, is photographed hanging upside down on a meat hook.

Which statement best depicts the main idea of the first paragraph?

A.Reality is what you make of it.

B.Time is like a fiver.

C.Emotions are powerful.

D.Every person has a special moment.

听力原文:W: Welcome to our program, Tom.

M: Thank you.

W: Tom, how long have you been a police officer?

M: I've been a police officer for forty years.

W: Forty years. And you've had. different types of assignments on the police force, I guess.

M: Yeah, I've done everything from patrol to undercover work to detective work, and now I'm supervising investigations.

W: Tom I think most people would say that being a police officer is a very stressful job. Would you agree?

M: Yes, it's definitely a stressful assignment you can have.

W: So, what's probably the most stressful assignment you can have?

M: I'd say patrol is the most stressful assignment.

W: That's interesting! In what way?

M: Well, I guess the biggest part of the stress is the fear factor—the fear of the unknown.

W: What do you mean, Tom?

M: Well, in patrol work, you don't know from moment to moment who you are talking to or what their reaction is going to be to justify your presence. Let's say, for example, a patrol officer stops someone for a traffic violation. It seems as though that would be a very low-stress situation.

W: Yes, it is a very low-stress situation.

M: But the truth is, there are more police officers injured during a routine stop.

W: Really?

M: Really! That's why all police officers are taught from the very beginning to be aware of their surroundings. People back over policemen, people shoot policemen, and people jump out at policeman—different kinds of things. So that's probably the most stressful time.

W: I see. Let's take a break and then we'll move on to our next topic.

M: All right.

(20)

A.Friends.

B.A police officer and an investigator.

C.Two police officers.

D.A police officer and a program hostess.

Drivers on the Basingstoke by-pass used to have their attention diverted by a sign that re
ad-A MOMENT'S INATTENTION CAUSES ACCIDENTS. This self-defeating warning has now been removed but its message is still very much to the point. Almost anything can cause an accident. Apart from momentary inattention, it might be a minor miscalculation. Although human error plays its part, it is by no means the only cause of accidents. There must be some causes other than simple human error. Road construction also plays its part. It is on those roads where there arc subtle visual traps. Wherever there is a "black spot", it means that something is seriously wrong with the road.

If you have been involved in an accident and have been stopped, you must give your name, address, and registration number to anyone who has a good reason for requesting it; this means anyone affected by the accidents. If somebody is injured, the driver must produce his insurance certificate on request. If these formalities are complied with it is not necessary to wait for the arrival of the police. It is, however, often wise to do so. The police are expert at drawing plans, taking measurements and photographs and gathering other evidence. In your absence the police could be given a biased story against you; and you yourself might want to point out certain features of the accident to the police.

A MOMENT'S INATTENTION CAUSES ACCIDENTS is a self-defeating warning because______.

A.it is not tree

B.it will distract the driver's attention

C.it is too difficult to understand

D.it is too long to be read while driving a car

听力原文:M: Good morning.

W: Good morning. Please come in and have a seat.

M: Thank you.

W: I have been looking through your application. You seem to have many of the. qualifications needed for this position. That's one of the reasons why you've been short-listed.

M: Thank you. As a matter of fact, I have been in computer programming for three years.

W: Yes, I see. Were you satisfied with your last position?

M: Generally, yes. But to be honest, not entirely. I was with a small, family-owned company, and chances for advancement were very limited.

W: The letter of reference from the president praises your work highly.

M: Mr. Brown gave me a lot of responsibility and I learned a great deal about company operations.

W: Well, we ask for loyalty and hard work from our employees. But we pay well, and opportunities for promotion depend on merit, not just age or seniority.

M: I am very interested in working for your firm.

W: I see. Well, have you got any questions?

M: Yes, well, I wonder if you could tell me what the salary would be.

W: Of course. We'd be offering a starting salary of $ 600 a week, that's for 40 hours.

M: Do you mean that it might be increased at a later time?

W: Yes, we usually give our staff a month's trial and then, if everything is satisfactory, we raise the salary by 20 percent. Any more questions?

M: No. I think that's all.

W: Well, thank you very much for coming in. I have a few more short-listed candidates to interview today for this position. But at the moment, your chances look very good. We will be in touch with you soon.

M: Thank you very much for your time.

(20)

A.He was looking for a job.

B.He seemed to have many needed qualifications.

C.He handed in his application earlier than others.

M: Sir, my wife and I arrived home last night after a holiday arranged brochure as a comfortable, medium-sized hotel with a magnificent view of the sea, offering courteous, old-fashioned service

M: Yes, that's good. The food was strictly beef burgers and chips or fish and chips. Wine was available, but at exorbitant prices, and for the courteous, old-fashioned service, the majority of the staff were foreign and virtually incapable of speaking or under- standing the English language.

W: Yes, that's quite true.

M: In addition to this, we were most unhappy with the arrangements for our journey home. We were instructed to catch the 11:00 a.m. ferry...

W: Wasn't it 12:00?

M: No, 11:00...but this was apparently delayed and we did not get away fill 6 o'clock in the evening. Now that our holiday is over. it seems fairly pointless writing this letter, but I should like you to know that we were most disappointed with the hotel travel arrangements and shall certainly not be booking any future holidays through Happy Tours.

听力原文:In this century, photographs have been really important for teaching art history.

听力原文: In this century, photographs have been really important for teaching art history. I will show what I mean in a moment with some photographs taken by Peter and Paul Julie. The work of these two photographers has been a very useful source for studying the art produced in the United States from 1896 to the present. Peter and Paul Julie were not artists, but they were a regular part of New York art scene. They took over a hundred thousand photographs which document the life and work of thousands of artists. Peter Julie is known as pioneer in this field of art photography. George Orkieve and other famous artists sought him out to take pictures of their work. His specialty was photographing painting. His son Paul photographs sculptures. Some of their most important photos are the ones of works of art that have since been destroyed. One example is a photo that we'll look at today. Would someone get the light please? Thanks. This slide is from a photograph of painting by Edvord Harbor called Com Belt City. The painting was exhibited only two or three times before it was destroyed in the fire. Without the Julies photograph, no visual record of the work would exist. Although the Julies mostly photographed the works of painters and sculptors, they also occasionally photographed architectural subjects. They did quite a few photos of the buildings by John Muisopope. And we're going to look at one of those next.

(33)

A.A painter and a sculptor.

B.Paintings inspired by photographs.

C.Early photographic techniques.

D.The work of two photographers.
