TEST 2 Listen carefully to the conversations and short passages
[00:06.79]and choose the best answer to each of the questions.
[00:11.23]1.M:Have you found an apartment yet?
[00:15.88]W: No.We need such a large amount of space
[00:20.61]that all the apartments we've seen are too expensive.
[00:25.94]Q:Why are the people having trouble finding an apartment?
[00:32.10]2.M:Don't you have to drive far to work every day?
[00:40.36]W:Yes,about 20 miles.
[00:43.83]I don't mind the distance as long as I can live in the country,
[00:49.29]and have my vegetable garden and lots of trees.
[00:53.94]Q:What must the woman do to have a house in the country?
[00:59.79]3.W:These tomatoes are huge!You must have watered them a lot! M:Yes,I did.
[01:08.57]They ought to be ripe enough to pick by next Friday when we have our picnic.
[01:14.53]Q:Where did this conversation most probably take place?
[01:20.88]4.W:I'm looking for a textbook for my sociology1 course.
[01:30.38] It's called American Society at the crossroads. Do you have it?
[01:36.73]M:Yes,we do.You'll find it in Section 24,on the top shelf.
[01:42.66]Q:What is the woman's occupation?
[01:47.62]5.M:I've been having annoyance2 calls for two weeks.
[01:55.88]When I answer the phone,the other party hangs up without saying anything.
[02:02.15]I've tried everything including blowing a whistle into the receiver.
[02:08.08]W: Beginning today,we want you to keep a record of the time each call occurs.
[02:15.73]From this chart,we can get information to help us trace the calls.
[02:22.11]If necessary,the telephone company can contact the police.
[02:27.85]Q:What does the woman suggest that the man do?
[02:33.73]6.W:Did you know that Paul had a bad accident and is in the hospital?
[02:41.67]M:That's what I heard from Betty;
[02:44.83]only she made a mistake at first and said it was his brother Peter who was hurt.
[02:51.08]Q: How did the man first learn about the accident?
[02:57.61]7. M:This is a very expensive watch,
[03:05.57]but I've had trouble with it ever since I bought it.
[03:09.94]I insist on seeing the manager.
[03:13.18]W:Actually,there is no need for that,sir,
[03:17.43]I'll give you another watch just like this one.
[03:22.00]Q: Where did this conversation most probably take place?
[03:28.17]8.M:According to your resume3
[03:32.32]you don't have much experience in advertising4,Miss Montag.
[03:37.05]W: That's not quite true.
[03:40.29]My father was an advertising consultant5
[03:44.24]and he gave me a fairly thorough6 introduction to the business.
[03:49.69]Q: What does Miss Montag say about her resume?
[03:55.15]9.M:Where do you usually eat breakfast?
[04:00.12]W:In the kitchen,I fix myself some orange juice,an egg,
[04:05.76]a slice of unbuttered toast and some coffee.
[04:10.02]But once in a while I have breakfast in the school cafeteria.
[04:15.58]That's when I get a ride and leave the house early.
[04:20.02]Q: Where does the woman have breakfast?
[04:24.25]10.M:These silver earrings7 are only sixteen dollars this week.
[04:31.02]The gold ones are twenty-four.
[04:34.47]W:I'll take the silver ones,then;
[04:38.02]or,on second thought,give me the gold ones.
[04:42.98]I have a gold necklace that would look very nice with them.
[04:48.05]Q:What did the woman decide to buy?
[04:52.78]PASSAGEⅠ
[04:58.63]English people traditionally like to live in small houses,
[05:04.09]not apartments which they call flats.
[05:07.85]The usual building material is red brick.
[05:12.42]Houses built before 1910
[05:16.37]were very often arranged in long uniform rows or terraces9,
[05:22.72]with no gap between the houses,
[05:26.06]and with each house containing a front room above the entrance hall.
[05:32.59]In the central areas of towns, some bigger houses had more floors,
[05:39.67]but even a house with four floors was usually on the same basic pattern,
[05:46.83]with a basement for servants and the top rooms for the children.
[05:52.57]Houses standing10 alone in their own grounds were normally very large
[05:59.55]and,until 1850,a very pleasing design.
[06:05.90]Another fairly widespread arrangement was semi-detached.
[06:12.09]Usually still on the same basic arrangement
[06:16.74]but with houses built in pairs and some space left between the pairs.
[06:24.00]This type is now more usual than the uninterrupted terrace8.
[06:30.56]Questions 11 to 13 are based on the passage you have just heard.
[06:36.72]11.At the end of the last century what kind of house could you most often see?
[06:45.19]12.Which of the following statements is correct?
[06:50.46]13.What is more usual now?
[06:55.32]PASSAGE Ⅱ
[06:58.27]Alaska is known for its cold snowy weather.
[07:02.92]For many years dog sleds were the only means of transportation.
[07:08.98]Some Alaskans combine fun and hard work in an annual dog sled race.
[07:15.75]The trail race is the longest dog sled race in the world.
[07:21.21]It lasts from two to three weeks and covers almost 17 hundred km.
[07:28.86]The race goes across Alaska from Anchorage to Nome.
[07:34.30]It follows the trails that were once used by the people
[07:39.55]who looked for gold in Alaska’s wilderness11.
[07:43.91]The race also follows the route of several brave Alaskans
[07:50.18]who brought medicine from Anchorage to Nome in the winter of 1925.
[07:57.31]They carried the badly needed medicine
[08:00.94]through a bad storm and helped save many lives.
[08:05.64]The race from Anchorage to Nome,which is held in March,
[08:10.81]is very hard for the drivers and sled dogs.
[08:15.57]Each day the dogs run for about four hours and then rest for four hours.
[08:23.12]They run day and night,
[08:26.17]and sometimes travel as much as one hundred and ten km a day.
[08:32.94]The drivers must feed and take care of the dogs at race periods.
[08:38.79]Sometimes they only sleep for about two hours each day.
[08:44.15]Because the race is so hard many drivers do not expect to win.
[08:50.63]For most of them just being able to finish is a victory.
[08:55.88]Questions 14 to 16 are based on the passage you have just heard.
[09:02.85]14.What is this talk about?
[09:07.60]15.When is the race held?
[09:11.97]16.Which is considered a victory for most of the drivers?
[09:19.05] PASSAGE Ⅲ
[09:21.97]Your assignments this term will be to write two major research papers.
[09:28.74]One of the most important things about writing a research paper
[09:34.20]is giving proper credit for your sources of information.
[09:39.94]Failure to do this is called plagiarism12,
[09:44.52]which is a form of intellectual dishonesty.
[09:48.96]Plagiarism is a kind of stealing
[09:53.03]or at least an unauthorized borrowing of someone else's ideas.
[09:59.48]Sometimes inexperienced students will plagiarize13 unintentionally,
[10:06.64]and then be surprised when the teacher won't accept their papers.
[10:12.70]Or gives them a failing grade.
[10:16.46]The best way to avoid an unintentional plagiarizing14
[10:21.22]is to be very careful in gathering15 your information.
[10:26.39]As you take notes on books and magazine articles about the topic you've selected,
[10:33.16]first try to assimilate16 the information thoroughly17.
[10:38.20]Secondly,write it down in your own words.
[10:43.06]This is called paraphrasing18.
[10:46.53]If you do a good job of paraphrasing,
[10:50.47]you'll capture the main idea from your source
[10:54.92]without actually using any phrases from it.
[10:59.46]Most of your notes should probably be paraphrases19.
[11:04.74]However,occasionally you may find something you wish to quote directly in your research paper.
[11:13.59]In this case,be sure that you copy the quotation20 precisely21 in your notes
[11:20.86]and enclose it in quotation marks.
[11:24.62]That way when you're finalizing22 your research paper,
[11:29.89]you'll be able to remember which of your notes are direct quotes
[11:35.82]and which are your own summaries of the material.
[11:40.47]You can incorporate23 them appropriately
[11:44.63]and give the original author proper credit.
[11:49.17]Questions 17 to 20 are based on the passage you have just heard.
[11:55.42]17.What kind of assignment does the speaker discuss with the students?
[12:02.26] 18.What does the speaker warn the students against doing?
[12:08.42]19.According to the speaker how should most of the notes be taken?
[12:15.19] 20.How does the speaker say a direct quotation should be used?
