　　2   Listen carefully to the conversations and short passages

[00:06.79]and choose the best answer to each of the questions.

[00:11.23]1.M:Have you found an apartment yet?

[00:15.88]W: No.We need such a large amount of space

[00:20.61]that all the apartments we've seen are too expensive.

[00:25.94]Q:Why are the people having trouble finding an apartment?

[00:32.10]2.M:Don't you have to drive far to work every day?

[00:40.36]W:Yes,about 20 miles.

[00:43.83]I don't mind the distance as long as I can live in the country,

[00:49.29]and have my vegetable garden and lots of trees.

[00:53.94]Q:What must the woman do to have a house in the country?

[00:59.79]3.W:These tomatoes are huge!You must have watered them a lot! M:Yes,I did.

[01:08.57]They ought to be ripe enough to pick by next Friday when we have our picnic.

[01:14.53]Q:Where did this conversation most probably take place?

[01:20.88]4.W:I'm looking for a textbook for my sociology 1 course.

[01:30.38] It's called American Society at the crossroads. Do you have it?

[01:36.73]M:Yes,we do.You'll find it in Section 24,on the top shelf.

[01:42.66]Q:What is the woman's occupation?

[01:47.62]5.M:I've been having annoyance 2 calls for two weeks.

[01:55.88]When I answer the phone,the other party hangs up without saying anything.

[02:02.15]I've tried everything including blowing a whistle into the receiver.

[02:08.08]W: Beginning today,we want you to keep a record of the time each call occurs.

[02:15.73]From this chart,we can get information to help us trace the calls.

[02:22.11]If necessary,the telephone company can contact the police.

[02:27.85]Q:What does the woman suggest that the man do?

[02:33.73]6.W:Did you know that Paul had a bad accident and is in the hospital?

[02:41.67]M:That's what I heard from Betty;

[02:44.83]only she made a mistake at first and said it was his brother Peter who was hurt.

[02:51.08]Q: How did the man first learn about the accident?

[02:57.61]7. M:This is a very expensive watch,

[03:05.57]but I've had trouble with it ever since I bought it.

[03:09.94]I insist on seeing the manager.

[03:13.18]W:Actually,there is no need for that,sir,

[03:17.43]I'll give you another watch just like this one.

[03:22.00]Q: Where did this conversation most probably take place?

[03:28.17]8.M:According to your resume 3

[03:32.32]you don't have much experience in advertising 4,Miss Montag.

[03:37.05]W: That's not quite true.

[03:40.29]My father was an advertising consultant 5

[03:44.24]and he gave me a fairly thorough 6 introduction to the business.

[03:49.69]Q: What does Miss Montag say about her resume?

[03:55.15]9.M:Where do you usually eat breakfast?

[04:00.12]W:In the kitchen,I fix myself some orange juice,an egg,

[04:05.76]a slice of unbuttered toast and some coffee.

[04:10.02]But once in a while I have breakfast in the school cafeteria.

[04:15.58]That's when I get a ride and leave the house early.

[04:20.02]Q: Where does the woman have breakfast?

[04:24.25]10.M:These silver earrings 7 are only sixteen dollars this week.

[04:31.02]The gold ones are twenty-four.

[04:34.47]W:I'll take the silver ones,then;

[04:38.02]or,on second thought,give me the gold ones.

[04:42.98]I have a gold necklace that would look very nice with them.

[04:48.05]Q:What did the woman decide to buy?

[04:52.78]PASSAGEⅠ

[04:58.63]English people traditionally like to live in small houses,

[05:04.09]not apartments which they call flats.

[05:07.85]The usual building material is red brick.

[05:12.42]Houses built before 1910

[05:16.37]were very often arranged in long uniform rows or terraces 9,

[05:22.72]with no gap between the houses,

[05:26.06]and with each house containing a front room above the entrance hall.

[05:32.59]In the central areas of towns, some bigger houses had more floors,

[05:39.67]but even a house with four floors was usually on the same basic pattern,

[05:46.83]with a basement for servants and the top rooms for the children.

[05:52.57]Houses standing 10 alone in their own grounds were normally very large

[05:59.55]and,until 1850,a very pleasing design.

[06:05.90]Another fairly widespread arrangement was semi-detached.

[06:12.09]Usually still on the same basic arrangement

[06:16.74]but with houses built in pairs and some space left between the pairs.

[06:24.00]This type is now more usual than the uninterrupted terrace 8.

[06:30.56]Questions 11 to 13 are based on the passage you have just heard.

[06:36.72]11.At the end of the last century what kind of house could you most often see?

[06:45.19]12.Which of the following statements is correct?

[06:50.46]13.What is more usual now?

[06:55.32]PASSAGE Ⅱ

[06:58.27]Alaska is known for its cold snowy weather.

[07:02.92]For many years dog sleds were the only means of transportation.

[07:08.98]Some Alaskans combine fun and hard work in an annual dog sled race.

[07:15.75]The trail race is the longest dog sled race in the world.

[07:21.21]It lasts from two to three weeks and covers almost 17 hundred km.

[07:28.86]The race goes across Alaska from Anchorage to Nome.

[07:34.30]It follows the trails that were once used by the people

[07:39.55]who looked for gold in Alaska’s wilderness 11.

[07:43.91]The race also follows the route of several brave Alaskans

[07:50.18]who brought medicine from Anchorage to Nome in the winter of 1925.

[07:57.31]They carried the badly needed medicine

[08:00.94]through a bad storm and helped save many lives.

[08:05.64]The race from Anchorage to Nome,which is held in March,

[08:10.81]is very hard for the drivers and sled dogs.

[08:15.57]Each day the dogs run for about four hours and then rest for four hours.

[08:23.12]They run day and night,

[08:26.17]and sometimes travel as much as one hundred and ten km a day.

[08:32.94]The drivers must feed and take care of the dogs at race periods.

[08:38.79]Sometimes they only sleep for about two hours each day.

[08:44.15]Because the race is so hard many drivers do not expect to win.

[08:50.63]For most of them just being able to finish is a victory.

[08:55.88]Questions 14 to 16 are based on the passage you have just heard.

[09:02.85]14.What is this talk about?

[09:07.60]15.When is the race held?

[09:11.97]16.Which is considered a victory for most of the drivers?

[09:19.05] PASSAGE Ⅲ

[09:21.97]Your assignments this term will be to write two major research papers.

[09:28.74]One of the most important things about writing a research paper

[09:34.20]is giving proper credit for your sources of information.

[09:39.94]Failure to do this is called plagiarism 12,

[09:44.52]which is a form of intellectual dishonesty.

[09:48.96]Plagiarism is a kind of stealing

[09:53.03]or at least an unauthorized borrowing of someone else's ideas.

[09:59.48]Sometimes inexperienced students will plagiarize 13 unintentionally,

[10:06.64]and then be surprised when the teacher won't accept their papers.

[10:12.70]Or gives them a failing grade.

[10:16.46]The best way to avoid an unintentional plagiarizing 14

[10:21.22]is to be very careful in gathering 15 your information.

[10:26.39]As you take notes on books and magazine articles about the topic you've selected,

[10:33.16]first try to assimilate 16 the information thoroughly 17.

[10:38.20]Secondly,write it down in your own words.

[10:43.06]This is called paraphrasing 18.

[10:46.53]If you do a good job of paraphrasing,

[10:50.47]you'll capture the main idea from your source

[10:54.92]without actually using any phrases from it.

[10:59.46]Most of your notes should probably be paraphrases 19.

[11:04.74]However,occasionally you may find something you wish to quote directly in your research paper.

[11:13.59]In this case,be sure that you copy the quotation 20 precisely 21 in your notes

[11:20.86]and enclose it in quotation marks.

[11:24.62]That way when you're finalizing 22 your research paper,

[11:29.89]you'll be able to remember which of your notes are direct quotes

[11:35.82]and which are your own summaries of the material.

[11:40.47]You can incorporate 23 them appropriately

[11:44.63]and give the original author proper credit.

[11:49.17]Questions 17 to 20 are based on the passage you have just heard.

[11:55.42]17.What kind of assignment does the speaker discuss with the students?

[12:02.26] 18.What does the speaker warn the students against doing?

[12:08.42]19.According to the speaker how should most of the notes be taken?

[12:15.19] 20.How does the speaker say a direct quotation should be used?
