[00:44.43]M:I almost missed it!But my mother just happened to be watching at home and gave me a call.


[00:51.07]Q:What do we know about the man?


[00:56.29]4.M:I hear you are thinking about moving back into the dorm next semester 3.


[01:02.54]W:Who told you that?I'd never give up my apartment.


[01:07.66]Q:Where does the woman live now?


[01:12.88]5.W:I'd really like to go to the concert tonight,but I don't know if I can spare the time.


[01:21.97]M:Music always relaxes me.It might be worth it in the long run.


[01:28.16]Q:What does the man suggest the woman do?


[01:33.34]6.M:I don't know what to do with Jimmy.


[01:39.58]This morning I found orange juice spilled all over the kitchen floor.

[01:49.87]Q:What does the woman mean?

[02:15.76]8.W:I'm amazed 4 that you are still driving that old car of yours.

[02:32.35]Q:What does the man mean?


[02:36.45]9.W:Tom,could I bother you for a moment?I need someone to return this book to the library for me.


[02:46.66]W:That's not bother at all.I'm on my way there now.


[02:50.71]Q:What will the man probably do next?


[02:56.90]10.M:Last Monday when I was at Dr.Smith's office,I spent over an hour in the waiting room.


[03:04.97]W:Really?Something must have come up that day.


[03:09.18]Q:What do we know about Dr.Smith?


[03:14.40]Passage One


[03:17.59]Books are for reading,but man must bring to his reading a desire to learn and a power to absorb.


[03:25.66]Reading should be active,not passive 5.


[03:29.92]When students first go to a library,they may be at a loss about what to read with all the different subjects available.


[03:38.62]Bacon tells you to"look at weak places in your armour",and shows you how to fill the blanks in your knowledge.


[03:47.81]On the other hand,it is no good just trying to fill your mind with knowledge.


[03:54.03]Knowledge in itself is often useless.


[03:58.18]A mind filled with too much knowledge is like a room too full of furniture;


[04:04.32]a man cannot walk about freely 6 in it,or look out the windows.


[04:09.50]It is much better to concentrate on a few subjects which interest you and to deal lightly with the others than to march heavily through the whole range of learning 7.


[04:20.62]like a silly tourist going through a museum and not missing 8 a single object.


[04:27.78]If you try to master every subject you may become very wise,but you will be very lonely and you will probably lose all your friends.


[04:37.86]So you must learn to pick and choose,and you must also learn to look here and there in a library like a camel eating grass on the grassland 9.


[04:48.08]If you watch him eating,you will see that although he is supposed to be one of the most stupid animals in the world,


[04:55.39]he has at least one of the qualities of the cultured man,the power to pick and choose.


[05:02.50]A student looking for mental food in the library should use the camel as his model.


[05:09.71]Questions 11 to 13 are based on the passage you have just heard.


[05:14.93]11.What's the writer's attitude towards reading?


[05:22.09]12.What's the similarity between a camel and a cultured man?


[05:29.35]13.Which of the following is true according to the passage?


[05:35.54]Passage Two


[05:37.71]Scientists have discovered a lake in southwest Florida that is thousands of years old.


[05:44.87]Discoveries made there have led scientists to believe this is one of the most important areas for studies of ancient man,animals,and climate in North America.


[05:56.08]At the bottom of the lake,they have found bones of now extinct 10 animals that were killed and cooked for food by humans over 12,000 years ago.


[06:05.79]A hunting device 11 was discovered___one of the oldest ever found.


[06:11.46]This great quantity of human remains 12 and plant and animal fossils 13 gives the scientists a rare chance to study combinations 14 of climate,


[06:20.55]and ecology that prepared the way for human survival 15 in America.


[06:25.93]The lake is at least 240 feet deep at one point.


[06:30.09]It is rich in minerals and contains very little oxygen.


[06:34.74]This has helped to preserve specimens 16 in the lake that would usually have been destroyed.


[06:40.95]Because several types of animals were found that are now extinct,it raises several questions among scientists..


[06:48.27]Did these animals die of natural causes,or were they hunted into extinction 17 by human beings?


[06:55.84]Questions 14 to 16 are based on the passage you have just heard.


[07:01.98]14.Which of the following was not discovered at the bottom of the lake?


[07:09.14]15.Why were the specimens preserved so well in the lake?


[07:16.25]16.What does the question at the end of the passage imply?


[07:23.45]Passage Three


[07:25.57]When I was walking down the street the other day,I happened to notice a small brown leather wallet lying on the sidewalk.


[07:33.75]I picked it up and opened it to see if I could find out the owner's name.


[07:38.92]There was nothing inside it except some change and an old photograph


[07:44.54]a picture of a woman and a young girl about twelve years old,who looked like the woman's daughter.


[07:51.69]I put the photograph back and took the wallet to the police station.


[07:56.87]That evening I went to have dinner with my aunt and uncle.


[08:01.18]They had also invited a young woman so that there would be four people at the table.


[08:06.35]Her face was familiar.I was quite sure that we had not met before,but I couldn't remember where I had seen her.


[08:15.96]In the course of conversation,however,the young woman happened to mention that she had lost her wallet that afternoon.


[08:24.19]All at once I realized where I had seen her.


[08:27.98]She was the young girl in the photograph,although she was now much older.


[08:34.22]She was very surprised,of course,when I was able to describe her wallet to her.


[08:40.31]Then I explained that I had recognized her from the photograph I had found in the wallet.


[08:46.99]My uncle insisted on going to the police station immediately to claim the wallet.


[08:53.13]As the police sergeant 18 handed it over,he said that is was amazing that I had not only found the wallet,


[09:00.29]but also the person who had lost it.


[09:04.50]Questions 17 to 20 are based on the passage you have just heard.


[09:09.67]17.Why did the speaker open the wallet?


[09:15.76]18.What did the speaker do with the wallet?


[09:21.95]19.When did the speaker find the owner of the wallet?


[09:29.10]20.Who was the owner of the wallet?
