　　原文：
　　11.M: Today is a bad day for me; I fell off a step
　　and twisted my ankle.
　　W: Don't
　　worry, usually ankle injuries heal quickly if you stop regular
　　activity for a
　　while.
　　Q: What does
　　the woman suggest the man do?
　　12. W: May I see your ticket please? I think you
　　are sitting in my seat.
　　M: Oh, you
　　are right. My seat is in the balcony. I'm terribly sorry.
　　Q: Where
　　does the conversation most probably take place?
　　13. W: Did you hear Mr. Smith died in his sleep
　　last night?
　　M: Yes, it's
　　very sad. Please let everybody know that whoever wants to, may
　　attend
　　the funeral.
　　Q: What are
　　the speakers talking about?
　　14. M: Have you taken Professor Young's exam
　　before? I'm kind of nervous.
　　W: Yes, just
　　concentrate on the important ideas she's talked about in class and
　　ignore the details.
　　Q: How does
　　the woman suggest the man prepare for Professor Young's exam?
　　15. W: I'm so sorry sir, and you'll let me pay to
　　have your jacket cleaned, won't you?
　　M: That's
　　all right, it could happen to anyone. And I'm sure that coffee
　　doesn't leave lasting marks on clothing.
　　Q: What can
　　we infer from the conversation?
　　16. W: Have you seen the movie the departed? The
　　plot was so complicated that I really got lost.
　　M: Yeah, I
　　felt the same, but after I saw it a second time, I could put all
　　the pieces together.
　　Q: How did
　　the two speakers find the movie?
　　17. M: I'm really surprised you got an "A" on the
　　test. You didn't seem to have done a lot of reading.
　　W: Now you
　　know why I never missed a lecture.
　　Q: What
　　contributes to the woman's high score?
　　18. W: Have you heard about a new digital
　　television system? It lets people get about 500 channels.
　　M: Yeah, but
　　I doubt they'll have anything different from what
　　we watch now.
　　Q: What does
　　the man mean?
　　Conversation One
　　W: Gosh! Have you seen this Richard?
　　M: Seeing what?
　　W: In the paper, it says there's a man going round
　　pretending he's from the electricity board. He's been calling at
　　people's homes, saying he's come to check that all their appliances
　　are safe. Then he gets around them to make him a cup of tea and
　　while they are out of the room, he steals their money, handbag,
　　whatever and makes off with it.
　　M: But you know Jane, it's partly their own fault.
　　You should never let anyone like that in unless you are expecting
　　them.
　　W: It's all very well to say that, but someone
　　comes to the door and says electricity or gas, and you
　　automatically think they are ok, especially if they flash a card to
　　you.
　　M: Does this man have an I. D. then?
　　W: Yes, that's just it! It seems he used to work
　　for the electricity board at one time. According to the paper, the
　　police are warning people, especially pensioners not to admit
　　anyone unless they have an appointment. It's a bit sad. One old
　　lady told them she'd just been to the post office to draw her
　　pension when he called. She said he must have followed her home. He
　　stole the whole lot.
　　M: But what does he look like? Surely they must
　　have a description.
　　W: Oh, yes, they have. Let's see. In his thirties,
　　tall, bushy dark hair, slight northern accent, sounds a bit like
　　you actually.
　　Q19. What does the woman want the man to read in
　　the newspaper? (A theft case)
　　Q20. How did the man mentioned in the newspaper try
　　to win further trust from the victims?
　　(Flashing his I.D. to them)
　　Q21. What is the warning from the police?( not to
　　admit anyone unless they have an appointment)
　　Q22. What does the woman speaker tell us about the
　　old lady?(Her pension has been stolen by the man)
　　Conversation Two
　　M: Miss Jones, could you tell me more about your
　　first job with hotel marketing concepts?
　　W: Yes certainly. I was a marketing consultant,
　　responsible for marketing ten UK hotels. They were all luxury
　　hotels in the leisure sector, all of a very high
　　standard.
　　M: Which markets were you responsible
　　for?
　　W: For Europe and Japan.
　　M: I see from your resume that you speak Japanese.
　　Have you ever been to Japan?
　　W: Yes, I have. I spent a month in Japan in 2006. I
　　met all the key people in the tourist industry, the big tour
　　operators and tourist organizations. As I speak Japanese, I had a
　　very big advantage.
　　M: Yes, of course. Have you had any contact with
　　Japan in your present job?
　　W: Yes, I've had a lot. The truth is I have become
　　very popular with the Japanese, both for holidays and for business
　　conferences. In fact, the market for all types of luxury holidays
　　for the Japanese has increased a lot
　　recently.
　　M: Really, I'm interested to hear more about that,
　　but first, tell me, have you ever traveled on a luxury train? The
　　Orient Express, for example.
　　W: No I haven't, but I have traveled on a glacier
　　express to Switzerland and I traveled across China by train about 8
　　years ago. I love train travel. That's why I'm very interested in
　　this job.
　　Q23. What did the woman do in her first
　　job?(marketing consultant)
　　Q24. What gave the woman an advantage during her
　　business trip in Japan?(She can speak
　　Japanese)
　　Q25. Why is the woman applying for the new job?
　　(She loves train travel.)
　　Passage one
　　Time
　　I think a lot about time and not just because it's
　　the name of the news organization I work for. Like most working
　　people, I find time or the lack of it, are never ending frustration
　　and an unwinable battle. My every day is a race against the clock
　　that I never ever seem to win. This is hardly a lonesome complaint,
　　according to the families and work institutes, national study of
　　the changing work force, 55% of the employees say they don't have
　　enough time for themselves, 63% don't have enough time for their
　　spouses or partners, and 67% don't have enough time for their
　　children. It's also not a new complaint. I bet our ancestors
　　returned home from hunting wild animals and gathering nuts, and
　　complained about how little time they had to paint battle scenes on
　　their cave walls. The difference is that the boss of the animal
　　hunting and the head of nut gathering probably told them to "Shut
　　up!" or "No survival for you!" Today's workers are still demanding
　　control over their time, the difference is: today's bosses are
　　listening. I've been reading a report issued today called When Work
　　Works, produced jointly by 3 organizations. They set out to find
　　and award the employers who employ the most creative and most
　　effective ways to give their workers flexibility. I found this
　　report worth reading and suggest every boss should read it for
　　ideas.
　　Questions 26 to 28 are based on the passage
　　you have just heard.
　　26. What is the speaker complaining about?
　　27. What does the speaker say about our
　　ancestors?
　　28. Why does the speaker suggest all bosses read
　　the report by the 3 organizations?
　　Passage 2
　　Loving a child is a circular business. The more you
　　give, the more you get. The more you want to give, Penalapy Leach
　　once said. What she said proves to be true of my blended family. I
　　was born in 1931as the youngest of 6 children, I learn to share my
　　parents' love. Raising 6 children during the difficult times of the
　　Great Depression took its toll on my parents' relationship and
　　resulted in their divorce when I was 18 years old. Daddy never had
　　very close relationships with his children and drifted even farther
　　away from us after the divorce. Several years later, a wonderful
　　woman came into his life, and they were married. She had 2 sons.
　　One of them is still at home. Under her influence we became a
　　blended family and a good relationship developed between the 2
　　families. She always treated us as if we were her own children. It
　　was because of our other mother, daddy's second wife, that he
　　became closer to his own children. They shared over 25 years
　　together before our father passed away. At the time of his death,
　　the question came up of my mother, daddy's first wife, attending
　　his funeral. I will never forget the unconditional love shown by my
　　stepmother, when I asked her if she would object to mother
　　attending daddy's funeral. Without giving it a second thought, she
　　immediately replied, "of course not, honey, she is the mother of my
　　children."
　　Questions 29 to 31 are based on the passage you've
　　just heard.
　　29. According to the speaker, what contributed to
　　her parents' divorce?
　　30. What brought his father closer to his
　　children?
　　31. What message does the speaker want to convey in
　　this talk?
　　Passage
　　three
　　In February last year, my wife lost her job. Just
　　as suddenly, the owner of the greenhouse where I worked as manager
　　died of a heart attack. His family announced that they were going
　　to close the business because no one in the family wanted to run
　　it. Things looked pretty gloomy. My wife and I read the want-ads
　　each day. Then one morning, as I was hanging out "Going out of
　　Business" sign at the greenhouse, the door opened and in walked a
　　customer. She was an office manager whose company has just moved
　　into the new office park on the edge of town. She was looking for
　　petite plants to place in the reception areas and offices. "I don't
　　know anything about plants," she said. "I'm sure in a few weeks
　　they'll all be dead." Why was I helping her select her purchases?
　　My mind was racing. Perhaps as many as a dozen firms have recently
　　opened offices in the new office park, and there were several
　　hundred more acres with construction under way. That afternoon, I
　　drove out to the office park. By six o'clock that evening I had
　　signed contracts with seven companies to rent plants from me and
　　pay me a fee to maintain them. Within a week, I had worked out an
　　agreement to lease the greenhouse from the owner's family. Business
　　is now increasing rapidly.
　　And one day, we hope to be the proud owners of the
　　greenhouse.
　　32．What do we learn about the greenhouse?
　　33. What was the speaker doing
　　when the customer walked in one morning?
　　34 What did the
　　speaker think of when serving the office manager?
　　35. What was the speaker's hope for the future?
　　Compound dictation
　　We're now witnessing the emergence of the advanced
　　economy based on information and knowledge. Physical labor, raw
　　materials and capital are no longer the key ingredients in the
　　creation of wealth. Now the vital raw material in our economy is
　　knowledge. Tomorrow's wealth depends on the development and
　　exchange of knowledge. And individuals entering the work force
　　offer their knowledge, not their muscles. Knowledge workers get
　　paid for their education and their ability to learn. Knowledge
　　workers engage in mind work. They deal with symbols, words,
　　figures, and data.
　　What does all this mean for
　　you?
　　As a future knowledge worker, you can expect to be
　　generating, processing as well as exchanging information.
　　Currently, three out of four jobs involve some form of mind work.
　　And that number will increase sharply in the future. Management and
　　employees alike will be making decisions in such areas as product
　　development, quality control, and customer satisfaction.
　　In the new world of work, you can look forward to
　　being in constant training to acquire new skills that will help you
　　keep up with improved technologies and procedures.
　　You can also expect to be taking greater control of
　　your career. Gone are the nine to five jobs, lifetime security,
　　predictable promotions, and even the conventional workplace as
　　you're familiar with. Don't expect the companies will provide you
　　with a clearly defined career path, and don't wait for some one to
　　empower you. You have to empower yourself.
