18、lk only once.（分数：30.00）(1).If overseas students get trouble at college, they can turn to the Welfare Office and the overseas students societies and organizations.（分数：3.00）A.正确 B.错误解析：听力原文 S=Sally A=Adam S: In recent years, more and more foreign students have come to the UK to study. But when they fi

19、rst arrive, many students are not sure of the formalities they have to follow and where to go for help. So we have Adam McLean from the British Council today to give some advice. Adam, first of all, where do overseas students get help when they come across problems at college? A: The Welfare Office

20、of the Student Union could provide students with advice and information on all aspects of college life and living in the UK. The college also has a counselor for overseas students who would look after the interest of foreign students specifically. They could also put you in contact with overseas stu

21、dents societies and organizations which are usually run by overseas students. So theres quiet an extensive support service for the students, and new students shouldnt feel they have to tackle problems alone. S: So what formalities should overseas students complete upon first arriving? A: One importa

22、nt thing is to register with the police. The stamp which will be put in the students passport by the immigration officer shows whether or not they are required to intend to stay in the UK for less than six months, you should not register with the police. S: So not all students coming from abroad hav

23、e to register with the police, but if you are not from an EEC or Common Wealth country, probably you must register. A: Thats right. If you are required to register with the police, you must do so within seven days of your arrival. You must also inform the police when you change your address while yo

24、u are in the United Kingdom. S: Well, what do you have to bring for registration? A: You should take you passport and two passport-sized photos of yourself. If you live in London, you should go to 10 Lambs Conduit Street, London WCI. It opens at 9 a.m. to 5 p.m., Monday till Friday. If you live in o

25、ther parts of the country, you should go to the nearest police station for advice on where to register. There will be a charge of 25 pounds for registration. S: All right. So, the passport, two passport-sized photos and 25 pounds. A: Well, another important thing is that holders of student visas are

26、nt usually entitled to claim state benefit or to work. Attempting to do so might influence your fight to stay in UK. You may be prosecuted and fined 500 pounds, it will say whether you are entitled to get a job in the UK or not on your visa. S: So thats something non-resident students should know. W

27、orking without permission in Britain is a criminal offence. But if they are qualified to get a job in the UK, how do they find one? A: If you are allowed to work, you need to get forms OW1 and OW5. These can be picked up at any Job Center, where work permits for students coming from abroad could be

28、issued. The OW1 form is filled out by the prospective employer and returned to the Job Center together with your passport and a letter from your college showing the employment will not interfere with your studies. If you look for work experience of practical learning, you must get forms OW21 and OW2

29、2 from the Work Experience Section of the Department of Employment. You will be asked for proof of the purpose and the length to stay here and that you are going to return to your native country.

You will hear the recording only once.（分数：9.00）(1).When a consumer finds that his purchase has a fault in it,

34、 what is the first thing he should do? A. Complain personally to the manager. B. Threaten to take the matter to court. C. Write a firm letter of complaint to the store of purchase. D. Show some written proof of the purchase to the store.（分数：3.00）A.B.C.D. 解析：听力原文 When a consumer finds that an item sh

35、e or he bought is broken or in some other way does not reach the standard of the manufacturers claim for it, the first step is to present the warranty, or any other records which might help, at the store of purchase. In most cases, this action will produce results. However, if it does not, there are

36、 various means the consumer may use to gain satisfaction. A simple and common method used by many consumers is to complain directly to the store manager. In general, the “higher up“ the consumer takes his or her complaint, the faster he or she can expect it to be tackled. In such a case, it is usual

37、ly settled in the consumers favor, assuming he or she has a just claim. Consumers should complain in person whenever possible, but if they cannot get to the place of purchase, it is acceptable to phone or write the complaint in a letter. Complaining is usually most effective when it is done politely

38、 but firmly, and especially when the consumer can demonstrate what is wrong with the item in question, If this cannot be done, the consumer will succeed best by presenting specific information as to what is wrong, rather than by making general statements. For example, “The left speaker does not work

39、 at all and the sound coming out of the right one is unclear“ is better than “this stereo does not work“. The store manager may advise the consumer to write to the manufacturer, ff so, the consumer should do this, stating the complaint as politely and as firmly as possible. But if a polite complaint

40、 does not achieve the desired result, the consumer can go a step further. She or be can threaten to take the seller to court or report the seller to a private or public organization responsible for protecting consumers rights.(2).If a consumer wants a quick settlement of the problem, whom is it bett

41、er to complain to? A. A shop assistant. B. The store manager. C. The manufacturer. D. A public organization.（分数：3.00）A.B. C.D.解析：(3).How can the most effective complaint be made? A.

D.解析：听力原文 Today its my turn to give the weekly oral presentation, and the topic that Professor May had assigned to me

43、 is “the life of the poetEmily Dickinson“. Compared with Walt Whitman whom we discussed last week, I found Emily Dickinson strikingly different. She seemed in fact to be the complete opposite of Whitman in her life and in her work. I would like to share briefly with the class some of the essential f

44、acts of her biography. Emily Dickinson was born in 1830 in Amherst, Mass, barely a decade after Whitman. In her early 20s for reasons which still remain a mystery she began to withdraw from her ordinary contact with the world. For the remaining 30 years of her life she was seldom seen outside her ho

45、me. In this respect she was quite unlike Whitman who loved the great outdoors. Emily Dickinson spent her solitary days corresponding with her friends and writing hundreds of remarkable poems, notably “I heard a fly buzz“ and the poem we have read for today “Im nobody“. Although she showed none of he

46、r poems to her family and sent some of her letters to friends, only four were published in her life time. Most of them, almost 1,200 poems were discovered in her room after she died in 1886 at the age of 56. These poems have established her as a major poet, and several modern critics consider her th

47、e greatest woman poet in the English language. Eh, thats about all I have. Is there any question? ff not, we should probably begin talking about Dickinsons “Im nobody“, the poem Professor May assigned for this weeks class discussion.(2).What was the discussion topic of the previous class meeting? A.

48、 New England mystery stories. B. Eighteenth-century English criticism. C. A comparison of poems of Dickinson and Whitman. D. The poems of Walt Whitman.（分数：3.00）A.B.C.D. 解析：(3).How did Emily Dickinson differ from Walt Whitman? A. She published poems frequently. B. She seldom left home. C. She lived in an earlier era. D.
