She informed us just now that she could not complete this task. W: Well, didnt you ta

17、lk with her about what she should do at the beginning? M: Not really. 2 She was recommended by Sampson and from what he told me, she sounded to be pretty qualified to do the job. Im not asking for a terrific web design but to build up a structure with all the basic elements of web design. W: Did you

18、 ask her why she wasnt frank with you in the beginning if she couldnt do the BBS? M: I did. 3 But she said it was a communication problem. W: So now what do you plan to do since she got the job half done? M: On one side, I will not pay her full fees since she wasnt honest with me in the beginning. O

19、n the other side, I have to search around for another guy to complete the job. W: I agree. That should also teach her a lesson. For us, 4 I think we had better turn to our Part-time Job Center for help. There, we can get a professional to work at it. Questions 1 to 4 are based on the conversation yo

22、, or, constraints imposed on it. W: What do you mean? Like rhyming in a poem? M: Well, thatll be an idea. 6-2 But what we write has to be prose, like prose poetry. Just to make rhyme in a poem is too easy, I guess. I think Prof. Eliot really wants to challenge us, to put our creativity to the test.

23、W: Well, did she give any hints about what she has in mind? M: Not really, 7 but I may have an idea of the kind of thing shes looking for. I just finished a really strange book by some French guy.

M: I know, but that translator manages it. I got the book at home if you want to check out for yourself.

25、8 Whats really amazing to me is that leaving e in French is no easy job and doing it in English is gonna involve a complete different group of words. Its a real work of mind. W: Sometime you have to show me that book. But right now Id better get going on the writing for next week. Questions 5 to 8 a

28、d 9 now, The Good, The Bad and The Queen. Damon was born and brought up in London and while at college he started playing music with a group who were later to become Blur. 10 Their first big commercial success was in 1994 with this track, Parklife. Damon became one of the musicians most associated w

29、ith the mid-nineties music scene known as Brit Pop. Brit Pop was the revival of guitar-based rock pop, and for a few years there was fierce competition between Blur and fellow Brit Pop act Oasis. Oasis were the rough working class rockers and Blur were seen as the intelligent art school band. The ba

30、ttle of the Brit Pop bands was on and the number one spot was taken by Blur. Damons next commercial venture was the Gorillaz. 11-1 The band members were represented by four cartoon characters who all had their own distinctive characters and life stories which can be found on their website.

34、onsumers, a fact not lost on marketers and advertisers. Green advertising started in the mid-1980s when issues of the environment muscled their way to the forefront of marketing. Advertisers saw the consumer desire for environmentally safe products and tried to meet the demand as quickly as possible

35、. 13 Not surprisingly, this first wave suffered from rough and poorly conceived marketing efforts. Many advertisers embraced a genuine concern for the environment. 14 But consumers realized that some companies made false claims and exploited the movement, using such nebulous terms as “environmentall

36、y friendly” and “green”. Consumers grew wary of environmental appeals, and advertisers reacted by reducing its emphasis. 15 Two legal guidelines paved the road to a second wave. In 1992 the Federal Trade Commission established guidelines for green marketing, followed shortly by state governments. Ca

37、lifornia passed particularly stringent laws, setting definitions for terms like “ozone friendly”, “biodegradable” and “recycled”. According to the states court, “California seeks to guard against potentially specious claims or ecological puffery about products with minimal environmental attributes.”

38、 Texas, Massachusetts, Minnesota, Tennessee, Connecticut, and Washington soon followed the Golden States lead. The rigid regulations have left a number of advertisers confused and frustrated, although some feel that environmental claims have already peaked and are on their way out. Some believe that

39、 weve now entered green advertisings third wave, where environmental concerns are now part of the mainstream. Questions 13 to 15 are based on the conversation you have just heard. 1.What were some early problems with the first wave of Green advertisements? 2.What do we know about consumers from the

41、 which have been built to accommodate our cars. People can display their wealth by driving a car which may cost as much as another persons home. 17-1 Sadly the car has become a disadvantage as well as a boon. The car pollutes the atmosphere, may be involved in serious accidents, and by its very numb

42、ers blocks roads. 17-2 How can we reduce its use? The car is only desirable if we can use it easily, so we might begin by reducing access to parking spaces in the cities and simultaneously increasing the quality and availability of public transport. Cars could be banned from certain parts of the cit

43、y, thus forcing people to walk or to use public transport. The expense of buying and running a car can be raised. 18 If the motorist is faced with a high purchase price, high road tax, high insurance premiums and substantial fines he or she may reconsider the purchase. A corresponding reduction in t

44、he price of public transport would help this financial argument against car ownership. Neither of these arguments will sway the super rich who can afford the status cars, but it would perhaps encourage them to look at other ways of demonstrating their wealth. 19 However we do it,reducing the number

45、of cars on the road will reduce the problems of pollution and the congestion which can bring cities to a standstill. 1.Which one is not the convenience private motor vehicle may bring? 2.What does the speaker focus on? 3.What factor might hinder most peoples consideration of purchasing private cars?

47、tes. Whats considered typical or proper social conduct in one country may be regarded as odd, improper or even rude in the other. For example, 20 people from some East Asian countries may begin a conversation with a stranger by asking personal questions about family, home or work. Such questions are

48、 thought to be friendly whereas they might be considered offensive in the United States. On the other hand, people in most Asian cultures are far more guarded about expressing their feelings publicly than most Americans are. 21 Openly displaying annoyance or anger, yelling, arguing loudly and so for

49、th is considered ill-mannered in countries such as Japan. Many East Asians prefer to hold their emotions in check and instead express themselves with great politeness. They try not to be blunt and avoid making direct criticisms. In fact, they often keep their differences of opinion to themselves and merely smile and remain silent rather than engage in a confrontation. By comparison, Americans are often frank about displaying both positive and negative emotions on the street and in other public places.
