19、 Around Alone Race in May 2003. As you listen, answer Questions 1 to 10 by circling TRUE or FALSE. You will hear the interview only once.（分数：30.00）(1).Emma grew up in a family with a sailing tradition.（分数：3.00）A.正确 B.错误解析：听力原文 M: What first sparked your interest in sailing? W: It wasnt really a cons

20、cious decision. It all just kind of happened. Im the youngest of the four in my family and I started sailing with my brothers and my parents. I began racing when I was ten or eleven with my brother. Then we moved up into bigger boats and started whelming, which was very exciting. M: What do you love

21、 about it? W: Everything, really. I love being outdoors and I love the freedom of just being able to jump in a boat and sail. But there are so many different parts of sailing. You have to concentrate on the tides and currents and weather. Just by sailing under a cloud, you will get more wind. There

22、is a lot to learn about aerial dynamics. M: Where is your favorite place to sail? W: The west coast of Scotland where I grew up. I guess home is always your love, but its definitely the most beautiful sailing Ive ever done. It can also be the most dangerous because its so tidal and the weather hits

23、the coast there pretty badly. Second is New Zealand, particularly the North Island. Ive sailed and cruised around there. Thats beautiful. M: What was it like sailing on your own? Did you get lonely? W: Yes, I did sometimes. But its quite funny because you are so busy all the time that days just disa

24、ppear. You try to feed in as much as you can in daylight, and at night, you have to make everything secure. But if you get really lonely, you can always pick up the phone and speak to someone. M: What was the worst moment on the Around Alone race? W: Having to climb the mast on the second leg. I bro

25、ke the main hauling yard, which is the rope that hauls the main sail at the top of the mast. Its snapped right at the top, so I had to go up and replace it. As you can imagine, at the top of the mast, the yachts motion is really exaggerated. Its very dangerous and you dont want to go up there too of

26、ten. M: Was there a time during the race when you thought you might not get back? W: A couple of times I thought: Why am I doing this? But there was never a time when I thought thats itIm fish food, having said that. There are so many moments when you get up a bit slack about fitting the safety harn

27、ess because its a real pain to keep moving alone. If you trip or follow over board, thats it. You are going to watch the boat sail off into the distance on autopilot. You either stay on the boat or you die. M: Do you ever get enough sleep sailing alone? W: You go into a state of exhaustion, so you s

28、leep in bursts never more than 20 to 30 minutes at a time. In really rough weather, you just try to lie down for 10 minutes. You rarely sleep but your body somehow gets some energy back, because your life revolves around sailing, keeping the boat fast, navigating, eating, sleeping and its a constant

29、 routine. You only spend a few minutes doing anything at a time. M: Would you do the Around Alone race again? W: No, Ive done it once and I have proved to myself that I can. The problem is that its a big chunk of your life and therere so many other things I want to do, although Im very lucky to be o

30、nly 29 and have done the equivalent of a few around the world.(2).Emma enjoys the sense of being free on the sea.（分数：3.00）A.正确 B.错误解析：(3).Sailing on the west coast of Scotland is a peaceful experience because Emma has a good knowledge of the area.（分数：3.00）A.正确B.错误 解析：(4).Emmas second cruise around N

34、happening in Australias agricultural industry? A. Many people are disqualified. B. Few senior positions are offered. C. Aging staff is posing a threat to its future. D. Senior staff leave for overseas employment.（分数：3.00）A.B.C. D.解析：听力原文 As scientists predict the dawn of a new agricultural revolutio

35、n, up to 50% of the industrys professionals are approaching retirement age. Employers say they are already losing some of their most senior staff, and in some cases have been forced to bring in staff from overseas to address the skills shortage. Professor Jim Gordan, the secretary of the Australian

36、Council of Deans of. Agriculture, says, coupled with declining university enrollments, the loss of senior agriculture professionals means Australia is seeing a brain drain when it is needed most. He also comments that a generation is coming to the end of their working life and there is a bit of a ga

37、p there in terms of their successors. That gap is pretty wide in terms of the availability replacements. For example, a number of universities have been trying to employ lecturers in agricultural economy and its really, really hard to find people who are suitable. Earlier this month in a speech to i

38、nternational conference, the former Primary Industrys Minister John Kerin highlighted an urgent need to address this very alarming situation. He points out that government agricultural agencies are being cut down. Agricultural research development is lessening. Agricultural education is slimming dow

39、n quite rapidly at tertiary level and physical infrastructure is being underinvested. This is at a time when we are facing unprecedented agricultural production and environmental challenges. The state and federal agricultural agencies agree that a mass of losses of senior professionals is potential

40、scenario for the industry. When contacted by the media, the federal department for agriculture, fishery and forestry and several state agencies said they were aware of the projection and had funding grands and graduate programs and place to address the situation.(2).What is Professor Gordans concern

41、? A. Lack of interest in agriculture. B. Shortage of agricultural talents. C. Existence of the generation gap. D. Reluctance to teach agricultural economy.（分数：3.00）A.B.C. D.解析：(3).What problem does Mr. Kerin point out? A. Environmental pollution caused by agriculture. B. Insufficient investment in h

42、igher education. C. Diminishing number of agricultural institutions. D. Imbalance between research and production.（分数：3.00）A.B.C. D.解析：（分数：9.00）(1).What is the problem with consultants? A. They do not have a middleman. B. They do not have sufficient capital. C. They are too humble to their clients.

43、D. They focus on a six-figure salary.（分数：3.00）A.B.C. D.解析：听力原文 W: What big mistakes do consultants make? M: They charge by the hour. As a solo consultant you should only “bill on value“ and you should only deal with an economic buyersomebody who can write a check for you. Dont deal with a middle-man

44、. I used to think that most consultants were undercapitalized and that was their big problem. What I know now is that the main problem is self-esteem. It doesnt matter what their age, gender, or culture is. Most consultants do not see themselves as their clients peers, but as subordinates. They are

45、submissive and they come to the job hand in hand. If you want to make six figures, you cant have that mentality. W: What is the challenge through the self-employed? M: Becoming self-employed as a consultant aggravates the problem most people have. When you work in a company, someone else can be the

46、front man and you can hide and just poke your hand out when you have something you feel strong about it. When you ride on your own, the poor self-esteem issues rise to the surface and one third of people dont have good support systems among their spouses and friends. Instead of encouraging them, the

47、se people are saying: Go back to work. You are never going to make it on your own. W: What do you mean by “bill on value“? M: Get an agreement with the buyer on objectives and metrics. If you are going to help save the company a million dollars or improve their market position by 2.5 million dollars

48、, you can get a 10% or better return, so you can make 100,000 or 250,000 dollars for those jobs. When you are talking to the right buyers, they dont blink these figures. Dont deal with a trainer or a HR person. Deal with the person who was authorized to spend that money.(2).What does Weiss say about self-esteem? A. Self-esteem matters a lot when one works in a company. B. Self-esteem enables people to confront someone superior. C. Self-esteem is built u
