听力原文： There is a popular belief among parents that schools are no longer interested in

spelling. No school I have taught in has ever ignored spelling or considered it unimportant as a basic skill. (26)There are, however, vastly different ideas about how to teach it, or how much priority it must be given over general language development and writing ability. The problem is how to encourage a child to express himself freely and confidently in writing without holding him back with the complexities of spelling.

If spelling becomes the only focal point of his teacher's interest, clearly a bright child will be likely to "play it safe". He will tend to write only words within his spelling range, choosing to avoid adventurous language. (27) That's why teachers time and again encourage the early use of dictionaries and pay attention to content rather than technical ability.

I was once shocked to read on the bottom of a sensitive piece of writing about a personal experience: "This work is terrible! There are far too many spelling errors and your writing is illegible". It may have been a (28)sharp criticism of the pupil's technical abilities in writing, but it was also a sad reflection on the teacher who had omitted mention of the child's deep feelings. The teacher was not wrong to draw attention to the errors, (29)but if his priorities had centered on the child's ideas, an expression of his encouragement in the pupil's free presentation would have given him more motivation to seek improvement.

(33)

A．The difficulties in teaching spelling.

B．The role of spelling in general language development.

C．The complexities of the basic writing skills.

D．The necessity of teaching spelling.

听力原文：Good evening. You are listening to Pop World of BCD International. I'm Susan Welc

听力原文： Good evening. You are listening to Pop World of BCD International. I'm Susan Welch. Today, we are going to hear several current hits of the world's most popular artists.

Well, first, I would like to say a few words to my dear listeners who are not very familiar with this program.

Since many people want to listen to and understand pop songs, radio producers at BCD International have made hundreds of programs over the years. We not only have access to the stars of the music world, but we also have a vast library of golden oldie" classics, as well as the "latest releases".

For those of you who like a bit of background with your favorite music--there's The History of Pop or The Road to Music. These two series bring you the language of pop music and information about the periods and the artists.

If you want to hear from the artists themselves, there's a new series called About the Big Hits. This is based on interviews with popular singers and songwriters. They talk to us about the meaning and ideas behind their songs.

If you want to understand the words to the big music hits, Pop Words is the program for you. After all, it's hard enough for native English speakers to understand most pop songs, so if English isn't your first language, you shouldn't be surprised if the words to many songs leave you in the dark. It was to address exactly this problem that BCD International started broadcasting Pop Words just over 23 years ago.

(30)

A．Interviews with radio producers

B．A variety of classic and pop songs

C．Latest news of the music library

D．Stories about the good old days

听力原文：The entertainment profession, or" show business", attracts many young people. Unf

听力原文： The entertainment profession, or" show business", attracts many young people. Unfortunately, only very few can hope to become famous and prosperous. (32) Talent is not enough, because show business is as competitive as any other business. (32) (33) Without a good manager, a performer can never hope to succeed. This is true for actors, dancers and comedians, but perhaps most of all for singers.

"Pop" stands for" popular", and (32) (34) a pop singer has to work very hard to become popular. He must either give the public what they already want, or he must find a new way of singing that will attract their attention. (34) Even when he has succeeded and his records are sold everywhere, he cannot relax.

The life of a successful pop singer is not at all easy. He can only relax when he is alone, (35) because everything he does is watched and reported in the special newspaper written for the" fans". The fans are the most important people in the world for a singer. They buy his records, they go to his concert, and make him rich and famous. But they can be very annoying, too. Sometimes their enthusiasm gets so hysterical that they do anything to get a" souvenir". They steal handkerchiefs, they tear off buttons, and they even cut off pieces of the unfortunate singer's hair. Many singers have been forced to hide. A pop singer has to spend a lot of money on clothes, because he must always look smart, or, at any rate, different. He must have a luxurious car. And-most important-he must always keep smiling for the benefit of his public.

(33)

A．Diligence and luck.

B．A good manager and luck.

C．Diligence and money.

D．A good manager and diligence.

听力原文： A few months ago, [32]a team of interviewers were sent to schools to find out why children are prejudiced against science. Their answer provided this surprising picture of a typical scientist: they thought [33]a scientist is a rather dull person who spends all day working in a laboratory, wearing a white coat and making things that smell bad. They thought that scientists usually aren't very interesting and don't talk about anything but science. They don't play games well and they aren't attractive to the opposite sex. They also did not realize that women are as capable of becoming scientists as men.

On the other hand, [34]an art graduate is seen as a much livelier person. Arts graduates are thought to have a better sense of humor, to be interested in sports and pop music and to be considered attractive. When you understand these misconceptions which children have, it is only logical that most of them want to study arts rather than science.

(33)

A．Scientists.

B．Art graduates.

C．Children.

D．Women.

听力原文：The first reality TV show in the world was called Expedition Robinson and it was

听力原文： The first reality TV show in the world was called Expedition Robinson and it was shown in Sweden in 1997. Half the population of the country watched the final event and a new kind of TV program was born. Two years later in Holland, the first series of Big Brother was filmed. Again, it was a great success and the final program was watched by 15 million people. Now more than 20 countries around the world have Big Brother or Expedition Robinson on their TV screens. The ordinary people who take part in the programs are known by millions of people in their own countries and reality TV has become big, big business.

For the TV producers, reality TV is a dream which come true because many of the programs cost nothing to make. At some point, the television viewers are asked to telephone the program to vote or to apply to take part in the show. It is the cost of these telephone calls that pays for the shows. One of the most popular shows is Pop Idol. In the show a group of attractive young people are made into pop stars. TV viewers vote for their favorite person on the show. The winner makes a record and millions of copies of the record are sold. His or her pictures are published on the covers of magazines or on the front pages of newspapers, and then, they are quickly forgotten.

But not everyone is happy about reality TV. In Portugal, two TV channels got into trouble because they showed too much of the personal lives of the people in the shows. In France, reality TV is called "rubbish TV" and the TV studios of Big Brother were attacked three times in one week. In Greece, Big Brother was described as "against human rights and civilization".

(30)

A．Common people.

B．Pop TV stars.

C．Attractive people.

D．Famous film stars.

听力原文：M: What's Neil going to do when he leaves school？

W: Until a few months ago he was going to go to university, but he's changed his mind. Now he reckons he's going to make it in the pop world.

M: And how do you parents feel about that？

W: We think he's making an enormous mistake.

M: But surely he can go back to his studies if his music career fails.

W: That's true, but once he gets a taste of freedom, he'll find it more difficult to go back to college. I just think it's such a waste m in three years' time, he'll have got his degree and he'll still be young enough to try out the music business. At least if it doesn't work out he'll have a qualification behind him.

M: Have you discussed this with him？

W: Of course, but he's made up his mind. We're just hoping that he'll get out of his system and then come to his sense and go back to his studies. When I left school I didn't go on to university, and I've regretted it ever since. I just don't want him to make the same mistake as I did.

M: Will you support him while he's trying to be a pop singer？

W: You mean financially？ No. He won't be living at home, and we can't afford to pay for him to live in London, so it's up to him to make it work.

(20)

A．Go to university.

B．Go t6 a music school.

C．Start his music career as a pop singer.

D．Start a business in the music world.

听力原文：The podcast revolution is erupting all over the world—and seemingly all at once.

听力原文： The podcast revolution is erupting all over the world—and seemingly all at once. (29) Why is it getting so popular？ The technology is simple to master and podcasting software is inexpensive, sometimes even free. Two Chinese students are receiving international fame as millions of people around the world watch them podcast from their dormitory. They are called the Back Dormitory Boys, and they specialize in mouthing Backstreet Boys' songs. Although most people in China don't have iPods, podcasting is sweeping the country. (30) The Back Dormitory Boys are among the thousands of Chinese who are putting their own homemade audio and video up on the Internet for all to enjoy. "You just gotta love two guys making a fool of themselves, and gaining international attention," said "Good Morning America" technology expert Becky Worley. The Internet is becoming more and more popular with China's youth; (31) about 60 percent of the 100 million Chinese who use the Internet are under the age of 24. "This generation grew up with values that are very, very similar to their peers in the United States," said Huang Hung, publisher of Time Out Beijing. "You're going to see a complete change in the cultural landscape of China." Already, podcasting has taken off in the United States. Earlier this year, 19-year-old Gary Brolsma skyrocketed to Internet fame with what he calls his "Numa Numa" dance—a lip sync to a Romanian pop song.

29. Why is podcasting sweeping the world？

30.What does podcasting mean according to the speaker？

31.Why does the speaker hold that the Internet is very popular among young people in China？

(4)

A．Because it is related with pop songs.

B．Because it is both simple and inexpensive.

C．Because you don't need a master to teach you.

D．Because it is initiated by two Chinese students.

听力原文：Music which is original is individual and personal. That is to say, it can be ide

听力原文： Music which is original is individual and personal. That is to say, it can be identified as belonging to a particular composer. It has particular qualities, or a style, which are not copied from another. If you can recognize the style. of a composer, you will probably be able to tell that a certain composition belongs to him or her even though you have never heard it before. A basket-maker has the skill of weaving his materials to create colorful patterns, and an expert carpenter has the, skill of joining together different shapes and sizes of wood to make a beautiful piece of furniture. These skills may be referred to as "workmanship". Similarly, in music a composer organizes his melodies and rhythms and combines sounds to create harmony. A composer may be capable of thinking up very good and original tunes, yet if tunes are poorly organized the final result will not be standard. Good music expresses feelings in a way that is suitable to those feelings. There may be joy, sorrow, fear, love, anger, or whatever. Bad music, on the other hand, may confuse unrelated feelings, it may not express any important feelings at all, or it may exaggerate some feelings and make them vulgar. Good music will stand the test of time. It will gain a kind of permanent status while bad music will disappear and be forgotten quickly. In pop music, where the general rule seems to be "the newer the better", the test of time is the hardest test of all to pass.

(33)

A．It has a personal style.

B．It sounds very familiar to our ears.

C．It is one whose style. you cannot recognize.

D．It does not belong to any composer.
