From the conversation, we know that the two were talking about some work they had to finish in the evening. This conversation is most likely to have taken place at the office, therefore A at the office is the best answer. You should choose A on the answer sheet and mark it with a single line through the center.

Section B Directions In this section you will hear three short passages. At the end of each passage you will hear some questions. Both the passages and the questions will be spoken only once. After you hear a question you must choose the best answer from the four choices marked A, B, C, and D. Then mark the corresponding letter on the answer sheet with a single line through the center.
Passage One
Do you remember a time when people were a little nicer and gentler with each other? I certainly do. And I feel that much of the world has somehow gotten away from that. Too often I see people r
ushing into elevators without giving those inside a chance to get off first, or never saying thank you, when others hold a door open for them. We get lazy and in our laziness we think that something like a simple thank you doesn’t really matter. But it can matter very much. The fact is that no matter how nicely we dress or how beautifully we decorate our homes, we can’t be truly elegant unless we have good manners, because elegance and good manners go always hand in hand. In fact I think of good manners as a sort of hidden beauty secret. Haven’t you noticed that the kindest most generous people seem to keep getting prettier? It’s funny how that happens, but it does. Take the long lost art of saying thank you. Like wearing a little makeup, or making sure your hair neat. Getting into the habit of saying thank you can make you feel better about yourself. Good manners add to your image, while an angry face makes the best dressed person look ugly.
Questions 11 to 13 are based on the passage you have just heard.

12. What does the speaker say about people of the past?
13. According to the speaker how can we best improve our image?
Passage Two
“Go to the playground and have fun,” parents will often say to their kids. But they should remember playgrounds can be dangerous. Each year about 200,000 children end up in hospital emergency rooms with playground injuries. Many injuries involve falls from too high equipment onto too hard surfaces. Nearly 70 percent of the injuries happen on public playgrounds. Recent studies show they may be badly designed, their protective surfaces are inadequate, and their equipment is poorly maintained. Parents should make sure that the equipment in the playground is safe and that children are playing safely. Last year, the national program for playground safety gave the nation’s playgrounds a grade of C for safety after visiting more than 3000 playgrounds nation
wide. Parents should watch closely. They should always be within shouting and running distance of their children. Young children don’t understand cause and effect. So they may run in front of moving swings. They’re also better at climbing up than at getting down. So they may panic at the top of a ladder. It’s important for children to know you’re watching them. Once they feel that sense of security, that’s when they can be creative.
Questions 14 to 16 are based on the passage you have just heard.
14. What is the cause of playground injuries?
15.What should parents do to prevent playground injuries?
16. What does the speaker say about young children?
Passage Three
For twenty-five years I was a full time thief, specializing in picking pockets. Where I come form in southeast London that’s an honorable profession. Anyone can break in a house and steal things, but picking somebody’s pocket takes skill. My sister and I were among the most successful pickpocket teams in London. We worked hotel and theatre lobbies, airports, shopping centers and restaurants. Now we don’t steal anymore, but this crime is worldwide. Here’s how to protect yourself. Profession pickpockets do not see victims, only handbags, jewels and money. Mothers with babies, the elderly, and the disabled are all fair game. My preferred target was the lone female, handbag at her side, the right side to be exact. So if I’m next to her, I can reach it cautiously with my right hand across my body. Only about one woman in a thousand carries her bag on the left, and I tended to steer clear of them. Women whose bags are hanging in front of them are tricky for the pickpocket as there isn’t a blind side. If you want to make it even harder, use a bag with handles rather than a strap. For men one of the best places to keep a wallet is in the back pocket of tight trousers. You’ll feel a[1] [2] 下一页 |
