11、ns or talks and you must answer the questions by choosing A, B, C or D. You will hear the recording ONLY ONCE. 1 【听力原文】 The family is changing. In the past, grandparents, parents, and children used to live together; in other words, they had an “extended family“. Sometimes two or more brothers with t

12、heir wives and children were part of this large family group. But family structure is changing throughout the world. The “nuclear family“ consists of only one father, one mother, and children; it is becoming the main family structure everywhere. The nuclear family offers married women some advantage

13、s: they have freedom from their relatives, and the husband does not have all the power of the family. Family structure in most parts of the world is still “patriarchal“; that is, the father is the head of the family and makes most of the important decisions. Studies show, however, that in nuclear fa

14、milies, men and women usually make an equal number of decisions about family life. Also, well-educated husbands and wives often prefer to share the power. But wives usually have to “pay“ for the benefits of freedom and power. When women lived in extended families, sisters, grandmothers, and aunts he

15、lped one another with housework and childcare. In addition, older women in a large family group had important positions. Wives in nuclear families do not often enjoy this benefit, and they have another disadvantage, too: women generally live longer than their husbands, so older women from nuclear fa

16、milies often have to live alone. Studies show that women are generally less satisfied with marriage than men are. In the past, men worked outside the home and women worked inside. Housework and childcare were a full-time job, and there was no time for anything else. Of course, this situation is chan

17、ging. Women now work outside the home and have more freedom than they did in the past. Why are some women still discontent? In most parts of the world today, women work because the family needs more money. However, their outside jobs often give them less freedom, not more, because they still have to

18、 do most of the housework. The women actually have two full-time jobs, one outside home and another inside, and not much free time. The nuclear family will probably continue to be the main family form of the future. Change, however, usually brings disadvantages along with benefits, and the family fo

19、rms of the past had many advantages. 1 【正确答案】 B 【试题解析】 本题为推断题。从 “and they have another disadvantage ， too: women generally live longer than their husbands， so older women from nuclear families often have to live alone” 一句中可知，妇女通常比他们的丈夫活得长，所以有许多的老年妇女不得不独自一人生活， 因此答案选 B。 【知识模块】 听力理解 2 【正确答案】 C 【试题解析】 本

21、【听力原文】 The system of bank credit cards operates in much the same way as a store credit account except that the holder is not restricted to making purchases in one place. Cards can be presented at any place where the bank card sign is displayed, and that could be at a shop, a service station, a hotel

22、, a restaurant or in fact at all kinds of businesses. The sales assistant imprints the card details on to a sales voucher which the customer signs, and the card is then returned to the customer. Each month the bank sends the holder a credit card statement setting out where purchases were made and to

23、taling what is owing. A payment has to be made within 25 days of the date of the statement, but not necessarily the full amount. If the customer pays in full within this time the use of the card does not cost anything. But if he decides to pay only the minimum repayment shown on the statement $5 or

24、5% of the outstanding balance, whichever is the greater he automatically chooses to use the systems extended repayment facility. The remaining balance is then carried forward and attracts interest at the rate of 2.25% per month. Bank credit cards are more versatile than store credit accounts in that

25、 they also enable people to obtain cash. Any bank displaying the bank card sign will arrange a cash advance for a card holder, whether or not he is one of their own customers. For money drawn in this way the bank makes a charge at the rate of 2.25% a month, calculated daily from the day the advance

26、is obtained. Details of cash advances appear on the monthly bank card statement. The bank credit card system operates entirely separately from cheque accounts, but nevertheless it is a customers previous relationship with his bank that is used as a guide to the amount of credit he will be extended.

27、When a card is issued a personal credit limit is imposed indicating the maximum that can be owing at any one time. This is confidential between customer and bank and does not appear on the card. 4 【正确答案】 B 【试题解析】 本题为推断题。从句子 “The system of bank credit cards operates in much the same way as a store cr

31、 can be starved and damaged? Judging from the experiment of Frederick in the thirteenth century it may be. Hoping to discover what language a child would speak if he heard no mother tongue, he told the nurses to keep silent. All the infants died before the first year. Today no such drastic deprivati

32、on exists. Nevertheless, some children are still backward in speaking. Most often the reason is that the mother is insensitive to the signals of the infant.

33、 and they might never be learned so easily again. Linguists suggest that speech milestone is reached in a fixed sequence and at a constant age. At twelve weeks a baby smiles and utters vowel-like sounds; at twelve months he can speak simple words and understand simple commands; at eighteen months he

34、 has a vocabulary of three to fifty words. At three he knows about 1,000 words which he can put into sentences, and at four his language differs from that of his parents in style rather than grammar. Recent evidence suggests that an infant is born with the capacity to speak. What is special about ma

35、ns brain is the complex system which enables a child to connect the sight and feel. And even more incredible is the young brains to pick out an order in language from the hubbub of sound around him, to analyze, to combine and recombine the parts of a language in novels. But speech has to be triggere

36、d, and this depends on interaction between the mother and child. Insensitivity of the mother dulls the interaction because the child gets discouraged and sends out only the obvious signals. Sensitivity to the childs non-verbal cues is essential to the growth and development of language. 7 【正确答案】 C 【
