Then what is global warming? 1Global warming is a mix of rising temperatures on our planet, and irregula

20、r climate change. Global warming is happening because of several key factors, 2the first one is greenhouse gases like carbon dioxide, water vapor, and methane. These greenhouse gases trap heat and also light in the atmosphere, this causes the temperature to rise. 3The next important cause of global

21、warming is deforestation. Humans use forests as fuel, for building, furniture, and other uses such as for paper. Forests remove carbon dioxide from the atmosphere and they store it, when we cut down trees we release a lot of the carbon that forests store. 4Another important cause of global warming t

22、hat is sometimes overlooked is the use of chemical fertilizers on crops. Global warming is also caused by 5solar radiation in the form of light waves, that pass through the earths atmosphere. Most of this radiation is observed by the earth and warms it. We have looked at the causes of global warming

23、, now lets have a look at the effects of global warming on our planet. 6One of the effects of global warming is the destruction of many important physical and biological systems. There will be effects to land, water, and life. 7Another important effect that global warming will bring is the loss and

24、endangerment of many species. Did you know that 30 percent of all plant and animal species alive in the world today are at risk of extinction by the year 2050 if average temperatures rise more than 2 to 11.5 degrees Fahrenheit. 8One very disappointing effect of global warming is war and conflicts. W

25、ith a decline in the amounts of quality food, water, and land, it could bring an increase in global security threats, and war. There is a lot of evidence pointing to the fact that humans are causing global warming by creating greenhouse gases, so what can we do about it to slow down or stop global w

26、arming? It is clear that, on the one hand, we need to reduce the amounts of gases that we put into our atmosphere. 9One of the most important changes would be to be more energy efficient. We will need an increase in the use of wind and solar power, and natural gas. On the other hand, we can also inc

27、rease the amount of greenhouse gases that we take out of the atmosphere. We can take greenhouse gases out of the atmosphere by planting trees. 10We will also need to make changes to the way of farming. So if we work hard and concentrate our efforts we will succeed in coping with global warming and s

28、low down or eventually stop the continuing warming of our planet. OK, thats the end of the talk today.

36、Well, 1I was not paying attention when I was looking for a parking spot and I hit another car. But fortunately I just have a small headache, and other than that Im fine. W: Did you hit it head on or on the side? M: Neither, 1I ran into the other cars back bumper as it was backing out of a parking sp

37、ace. I shouldnt be that careless. W: Were you doing something else at the time? M: Well, I really regret that. 2I was sending a voice message to my friend. W: Oh, thats not a good habit. Was the other driver hurt at all? M: No, thankfully it only jostled that old lady a little bit, but she was very

38、angry about it. W: Yeah, I know. And you may have to pay for the damages since you are accountable for it. Do you have the car insurance? M: Yes, now Im really thankful that I pay a little extra every month for full coverage. W: What is the difference between full coverage and liability only? M: 3Fu

39、ll coverage costs more, but it will pay more to have your own car fixed if you get into an accident. W: So you wont have to pay for the damages to your car from the accident today, right? M: 3Well, I have to pay a small deductible, but it is still a lot less than what I would have to pay to fix the

40、car myself. W: Then what would liability cover? M: Liability would only take care of the damages to someone elses car, but not mine. W: So does that mean your insurance covers both the damage to your car and the damage to the other car? M: Usually it would, but the other driver did not have any insu

41、rance. W: What do you mean by that? M: Well, 4if the other driver does not have insurance, then I am not responsible for the damages to her car, because she is not supposed to drive at all unless she gets the insurance. W: Did you receive a ticket for the accident? M: Of course, 5the police officer

42、gave me a small ticket because it was my fault. W: Did the other driver receive a ticket too? M: Yes, 5her ticket was much higher because she did not have insurance while driving.

44、y the police officer? 12 【正确答案】 A 【试题解析】 对话开头，女士看到男士脸色不好，问他发生什么事情。他说今天发生了一个小车祸。他在找车位的时候不小心撞到了另外一辆车。接着他补充道在另一辆车倒车出停车位的时候，他撞到了它的后保险杠。由此可见， A项为正确答案。 女士问是正面碰撞还是撞到了侧面，男士的回答是两种都不是。故B和 C都不对。 D“撞到一个年老 的女司机 ”与录音内容不符。 【知识模块】 听力 13 【正确答案】 D 【试题解析】 选项都是描述 He在过去某个时段正在做某事的动作，听音时注意相关信息。 在男士描述意外发生的过程之后，女士问男士当时是不是在做

45、别的事情。男士说他当时在给朋友发语音信息。由此可见， D项为正确答案。 【知识模块】 听力 14 【正确答案】 D 【试题解析】 选项都是关于 Full coverage的说明，听音时请注意相关信息。 对话中，女士问有了 full coverage是不是意味着不用自己花钱 修车 ?男士说还是得先支付一小部分免赔额，但那已经比自己花钱修车要少很多钱了。因此， D项“全险仍旧要求支付一小部分的免赔额 ”符合对话内容，为正确答案。 男士说通常情况下全险会保双方车辆的损害，而责任保险只保对另一方车辆造成的损失，所以 B也不对。女士问全险和责任保险有什么区别，男士说全险的费用更高，由此可见 C刚好相反。

46、 A“全险限制车辆损害的赔偿金额 ”在原文没有相关信息。 【知识模块】 听力 15 【正确答案】 B 【试题解析】 选项都以 Because开头，可预测本题问某事的原因。 对话中女士问 男士他的保险是不是可以赔付自己的车以及另外一辆车的车损费用，男士的回答是通常情况下是这样的，但另外一位司机没有买保险。他就不需要承担对另一辆车造成的损失。因此， B项 “另外一名司机没有买保险 ”为正确答案。 【知识模块】 听力 16 【正确答案】 A 【试题解析】 选项中多次提到 ticket“交通罚单 ”的情况，听音时多注意相关信息。 在对话的最后，女士问男士是否有收到交通违章的罚单，男士回答说因为自己有过

47、错，交警给了一张小罚单 (即金额较少 )。接着女士又问男士另外一位司机是否也收到了罚单。男士回 答说她的罚单金额高很多，因为她没有买保险。由此可见。 A项 “没有买汽车保险的罚款数额很高 ”为正确答案。 【知识模块】 听力 17 【听力原文】 W: Good morning Sir, how may I help you today? M: I would like to apply for a loan please. W: Very good, and what kind of loan are you looking for? M: I want a loan to buy a new
