18、h, I know, I must have left it in Jimmies office after yesterdays meeting. You couldnt get it and then ring me back, could you? Sorry to be a nuisance. 1 【正确答案】 A 2 【听力原文】 Man: Eggs are delicious food and parents have to make sure they are laid in spots well hidden from hungry thieves. One such care

19、ful parent braves the rushing waters of the Iguacu Waterfalls in South America to lay its eggs in a damp crack in the rock face behind the falling water. Accidents are frequent, but evidently the risk is considered worthwhile. In any case, there are no eggs on the menu in this particular part of Sou

20、th America, which is bad news for some! 2 【正确答案】 A 3 【听 力原文】 Customer: Theres something wrong with my watch. Its running slow. Woman: Oh, a Texor. Its a common problem with the older Texor watches. The latest ones are much better! Customer: Thats no help to me. Woman: No, I suppose not. Anyway, its

21、not easy to get them fixed, either. Not many people are up to it. Customer: Right. So .? Woman: And the problem is that by the time youve got it to pieces and put in the new parts and reassembled it, you might as well have replaced it. Its always the same, and its just as likely to go wrong again in

22、 a couple of months. 3 【正确答案】 B 4 【听力原文】 Woman: I must say it surprised me when I saw how many there were in the family. I dont see how theyre all going to fit in that small house. And theyre obviously quite well-off- you should have seen the amounts of electronic equipment that was carried in, and

23、theyve got three large cars between them - so why would a wealthy family like that want to live here? It makes you wonder how they earn their living. Not that Ive got anything to complain about - theyve been perfectly pleasant whenever Ive spoken to any of them, though so far they havent found time

24、to come in for a coffee. 4 【正确答案】 C 5 【听力原文】 Man: I love deep-sea diving. I go at least once every summer. The deeper you go,the quieter everything becomes, until finally all you can hear is the sound of your own heartbeat. Its my way of getting away from it all, finding some peace for once. I spent

25、 my honeymoon diving, although my wifes not so keen, and its not something we always do together. I dont need company necessarily, and Im not looking for some incredible adventure.

26、they die. That sounds like me back home. 5 【正确答案】 B 6 【听力原文】 Interviewer: Its difficult to talk about the beauty of a sound, but our great musicians today still clearly feel that these sixteenth-century Italian violins are the best.

Be careful though, the majority of interactive CDs turn out to be

29、 a let down. Many publishers convert printed material to digital format, add a few flashy linkages, and expect the buying public to be impressed. I wasnt. In this context, Wilsons multimedia package is a refreshing contrast. Its got all the information, readily accessed from a single-page pictorial

30、index covering states, cities, wildlife, famous people, etc., and the data is accompanied by good still pictures and 92 video clips. 7 【正确答案】 A 8 【听力原文】 Woman: If you have to deal with a customer who keeps ringing your office about a problem you think youve already dealt with, its important to be fo

33、riods of time exploring underground caves for pleasure. And Mikes here to tell us all about this fascinating hobby and how to get started on it. So Mike, why caves? Mike: Well, cavers actually explore any space thats underground whether its caves, old mines or tunnels. Interviewer: Oh right. So hew

34、big are these underground spaces? Mike: Oh - anything up to 80 kilometres long . which means that, in some cases, in order to reach the end youve got to sleep, to set up camp, inside the cave at some point- usually where both space and fresh air are available. Interviewer: No good ill youre afraid o

35、f the dark. Mike: No. Interviewer: So, where do you find the best caves? Mike: In terms of countries, the best places are, for example, Ireland, Australia and the Philippines. Here in the UK, various areas have the right sort of geology. My favorite is Wales, but you can find plenty of caves in nort

36、hern England and in Scotland too. Interviewer: Caving involves a lot of physical exercise, doesnt it? Mike: Thats right . in terms of physical activity, its very similar to climbing except they go up and we go down. The conditions can be very different though . we often find ourselves facing very sm

37、all gaps in the rock which we have to crawl through on our hands and knees. Interviewer: So the right equipment is obviously very important. If I wanted to start out on a hobby like this, what would I need? Mike: Well, youd need a hard hat, and its important to get one that fits properly, so that it

38、 doesnt keep falling over your eyes or feel too tight, and these can cost anything from five to twenty pounds. Interviewer: Umm . that doesnt sound too much for starters.

39、ut it doesnt come with the hat and it can cost anything up to fifty pounds to get a suitable one. Interviewer: I guess warm clothes are a must too? Mike: Youll need to spend thirty to forty pounds on a waterproof suit because the caves can be pretty wet and cold inside and you can get iii if youre n

40、ot protected. Then, of course, the thing that you really need to spend money on is something for your feet that keeps the water out. Strong boots are essential for this, also because without them you could be slipping on wet surfaces and doing yourself an injury. Cheap ones are just not as safe, Im

41、afraid. Interviewer: It sounds pretty tough. I mean is it really only a sport for the young and fit? Mike: Thats quite interesting because people tend to think that, but in fact cavers come from all ages and backgrounds - students and professionals alike. You even find eighty-year-olds whove been do

42、ing it for years. Interviewer: What exactly is it that people find so attractive? Mike: Its excitement . the pleasure you get in finding something new - a passage that nobody knew about before or a piece of rock thats just lovely to look at. Interviewer: And I understand that conservation has become

43、 a key issue as well? Mike: Yes. Forty-eight caves in Britain are now known as places of special interest because of what they contain and this is the same in other countries too. Interviewer: So, do cavers enjoy competing, like in other sports? Mike: No. We want to enjoy a safe sport and, in order

44、to ensure that, there are no competitions in caving. We try to organize a range of events, but the emphasis is on co-operation and the enjoyment of the sport for what it can offer the individual. Interviewer: Well, it sounds like something Ill have to try one day. Mike, thank you very much for comin

45、g in and sharing . 9 【正确答案】 tunnels 10 【正确答案】 space (and) fresh air 11 【正确答案】 Wales 12 【正确答案】 climbing 13 【正确答案】 hat 14 【正确答案】 lamp 15 【正确答案】 boots 16 【正确答案】 all ages 17 【正确答案】 special interest 18 【正确答案】 competitions 三、 Part 3 For questions 19-23, choose from the list (A-F) which of the opinions eac

But most teachers, when their class was over, tha

47、t was it, they were gone. You see, a teacher may know a lot, the thing is, its usually after class that you need their help, often as an individual, if you know what I mean. They think if they just turn up and de the job, thats good enough. 1 remember one teacher, she was new, said drop in any time.

48、 I liked that, I really did . 19 【正确答案】 D 20 【听力原文】 Boy: I was always good at maths, and I think it was because I had this excellent teacher, I was lucky really. 1 didnt like doing my homework, and hed say, these are the rules, take it or leave it, you do this for tomorrow or youre out of my class.

49、You see, a teacher may be there for you whenever you need his advice, but if he doesnt force you to do your best, itll all be wasted, wont it? This teacher had been in the school for many many years, and I know some of the younger teachers didnt like his methods. 20 【正确答案】 C 21 【听力原文】 Girl: I think it takes some time for a teacher to become really good. Sometimes a teacher whos just starting, well, they can be so demanding
