19、at the annual International Summer School. After a shorter introductory meeting on the Saturday night when Bridget Stevens, Summer School Director greeted all the new students attending a wide variety of courses. And the courses began in earnest with a two-hour session the following morning. Then fo

20、llowed full days, 9:30 a.m. 3:30 p.m., with the examination taking place on the fifth day(Friday). In order to give the students a change from my voice in this very concentrated week, Irene Randine, a very experienced lecturer, was invited to give two sessions, first on “Voice“ and later on “Reading

21、 Aloud“, both of which were a success. The group was from a variety of countries. We have required that only fluent English speakers would be accepted and all were competent communicators. To my mind the first session is always the most important, for it is at that point we take stock of each other,

22、 students and lecturer. During the next four days the pressure is intense as we cover the various situations in which speakers might find themselves.

Task 2 Directions: This

27、task is the same as Task 1. The 5 questions or unfinished statements are numbered 41 through 45. 41 As civilization proceeds in the direction of technology, it passes the point of supplying all the basic essentials of life-food, shelter, clothes, and warmth. Then we are faced with a choice between u

28、sing technology to provide and fulfill needs which have been regarded as unnecessary or, on the other hand, using technology to reduce the number of hours of work which man must do in order to earn a given standard of living. In other words we either raise our standard of living above that necessary

29、 for comfort and happiness or we leave it at this level and work shorter hours. I shall take it for granted that mankind has, by that time, chosen the latter alternative. Men will be working shorter and shorter hours in their paid employment. It follows that the housewife will also expect to be able

30、 to have more leisure in her life without lowering her standard of living. It also follows that human domestic servants will have completely ceased to exist. Yet the great majority of the housewives will wish to be relived completely from the routine operations of the home such as vacuuming the floo

31、rs, or washing the clothes, or making beds. By far the most logical step to relieve the housewife of routine, is to provide a robot slave which can be trained to the requirements of a particular home and can be programmed to carry out half a dozen or more standard operations, when so switched by the

32、 housewife. 41 In this passage, the author states that_. （ A） technology is no linger regarded as important as it used to be （ B） it is always reasonable to make a man work fulltime for a good salary （ C） modem civilization provides people with more than daily necessities （ D） it is salary, not the

33、number of working hours that worries people most 42 It can be inferred from the passage that_. （ A） the only purpose of developing technology is to fulfill the needs of daily life （ B） the better choice is to reducing working hours by making use of technology （ C） men will be less paid due to the de

34、crease in the number of working hours （ D） men have to work longer if they want to enjoy more in their lives 43 According to this passage, housewives _. （ A） are not satisfied with present standard living （ B） think that domestic servants are very helpful （ C） will prefer to live a life with more fr

35、ee time （ D） hope that husbands will be better paid by the employers 44 The words “routine operations“ (Para. 1) in this passage refer to_. （ A） daily necessities （ B） domestic servants （ C） medical operations （ D） daily housework 45 The purpose of the last paragraph is to_. （ A） describe the steps
