35、 based on the passage you have just heard. （分数：16.00）A.Ask questions frequently.B.Speak very loudly.C.Limit the speech to 15 minutes.D.Vary tone, volume, and speed of speech. 解析：听力原文 There are three main elements that combine to create either a positive or negative experience for listeners. They can
36、 result in a voice that is pleasing to listen to and can be used effectively. Or they can create a voice that doesn“t hold attention, or even worse, causes an adverse reaction. The three elements are volume, pitch, and pace. When evaluating volume, keep in mind that a good speaker will adjust to the
37、 size of both the room and the audience. Of course, with an amplifying device like a microphone, the speaker can use a natural tone. But speakers should not be dependent on microphones; a good speaker can speak loudly without shouting. The second element, pitch, is related to the highness or lowness
38、 of the sounds. High pitches are, for most people, more difficult to listen to, so in general speakers should use the lower registers of their voice. During a presentation, it“s important to vary pitch to some extent in order to maintain interest. The third element, pace, that is how fast or slow wo
39、rds and sounds are articulated, should also be varied. A slower pace can be used to emphasize important points. Note that the time spent not speaking can be meaningful, too. Pauses ought to be used to signal transitions or create anticipation. Because a pause gives the listeners time to think about
40、what was just said or even to predict what might come next, it can be very effective when moving from one topic to another. I“d like you to watch and listen to a video tape and use the forms I gave you to rate the speaking voices you hear. Then tonight I want you to go home and read a passage into a
41、 tape-recorder and evaluate your own voice. What are the three elements that work together to create experience for listeners? 解析 短义开头部分提到，三个主要的因素结合在一起决定听众正面或负面的体验，随后说话者指出，音量、音调和语速就是这三个要素，故选 D。A.Depend on microphones.B.Avoid shouting. C.Choose small rooms.D.Keep volume stable.解析：听力原文 What is recomme
42、nded by the speaker in terms of volume? 解析 说话者谈论音量时提到：一个好的演讲者会根据房间的大小和听众的多少调节音量；演讲者不应该依赖麦克风，好的演讲者可以大声说话，而不是喊叫。可知只有选项 B“避免喊叫”符合教授关于音量问题的建议，故选 B。A.Make a pause. B.Lower register.C.Vary pitch.D.Slower pace.解析：听力原文 What should a speaker do to indicate that the topic is about to change? 解析 说话者提到语速问题的时候说，
43、停顿可以用来表示过渡或者制造预期，因为停顿可以给予听众思考说话人刚刚说过的内容或者预测下面会接着讲什么。短文中的 signal transitions 与问题中的indicate that the topic is about to change 同义，故选 A。A.To practice speaking slowly.B.To learn to adjust their tones.C.To evaluate their own voices. D.To record their voices for the speaker to evaluate.解析：听力原文 Why did the
44、speaker ask the listeners to read a passage into a taperecorder? 解析 短文最后一们提到了磁带录音机，该句中说话者希望听众回家录一段朗读文章并评估一下自己的声音。选项 C 与原文相符，故选 C。五、Passage Two(总题数：1，分数：12.00)Questions 13 to 15 are based on the passage you have just heard. （分数：12.00）A.He was working at a bakery.B.He was standing beside his car.

A group was protesting airplane noise, and Schum, who had kicked off his shoes, got o
46、ut of the car. Within seconds, though, Schum saw something astonishing: A small plane dived and crashed into the woods about 100 yards from the runway. “I don“t remember making the decision that I should go help out,“ he recalls. “I just started running.“ Schum sprinted across the street barefoot, s
47、caled a six-foot-high chain-link fence, and dashed about 100 yards toward the woods. When he got there, he discovered 51-year-old pilot Stephen Bochterhis head bleedingbeside the burning plane. Bochter“s passenger, his fiance, Kim Brillo, was on the ground, unconscious. “She had blood all over her,“
48、 says Schum. “I thought she was dead.“ Jack Gleeson, 17, a high school student working a summer job at the airport, caught up to Schum and, with Bochter“s help, hoisted the chainlink fence and brought Brillo underneath it. Moments later, the entire plane exploded. After the paramedics arrived, Bocht
49、er and Brillo, 34, were airlifted to a nearby hospital and treated for cuts and bruises and Brillo“s broken arm. Bochter, an experienced pilot, later said that the plane“s electrical system had failed shortly after takeoff. He had been attempting to land at the East Hampton Airport when the plane began to nosedive. He managed to level the wings before crashing into the woods. “Everything was on fire, and Schum came out of nowhere to save us,“ says Bochter. “We“re blessed to have lived through it.“ What was Schum probably doing
