[00:04.29]Section A
[00:05.92]11. W: You still have to wait an hour, so relax.
[00:09.99]M: Relax? How can I when I'm so anxious about the interview.
[00:14.07]Q: What does the man mean?
[00:31.70]12. W: I thought Amy majored in mathematics in college,
[00:35.57]but now she has just found a job as an engineer in a building company.
[00:40.05]M: That's true, after studying mathematics for three years,
[00:43.57]she changed her major.
[00:45.56]Q: What's true of Amy?
[01:03.32]13. W: Why don't you try to leave your office at 6:15
[01:07.06]and I'll try to pick you up at 6:30.
[01:09.89]M: That may be a little late if we want to be sure of getting good seats.
[01:14.36]I think I'd rather leave here at 6:00.
[01:17.46]Q: When will the man probably meet the woman?
[01:35.98]14. W:I can't stand this class. It's so boring.
[01:40.89]M: Well, you might as well as get used to it.
[01:43.19]It's required, and you have to take it in order to graduate.
[01:46.77]Q: How does the woman feel about the class?
[02:08.44]Look after yourself while I'm away. Goodbye, darling.
[02:11.68]W: You'll write everything, won't you?
[02:33.20]16. W: I know the coat is a bit too large,
[02:36.72]but it was such a good buy.
[02:38.56]I'm going to keep it.
[02:39.82]M: Well, that doesn't make any sense to me.
[02:43.17]Q: Why did the woman want to keep the coat?
[03:01.77]17. M: Our teacher can speak English like an American,
[03:05.39]even though his native language is Spanish.
[03:08.95]W: Yes, and he speaks French and German, too.
[03:11.85]Q: What's the teacher's native language?
[03:30.79]18. M: How's Mary feeling today?
[03:33.91]W: She's still running a temperature.
[03:36.12]Q: What does the woman say about Mary?
[03:55.95]Now you'll hear two long conversations.
[03:59.44]Conversation One
[04:01.75]M: Mum!
[04:02.75]W: Yeah, Micky.
[04:04.25]M: Can I have a really good snack?
[04:06.68]W: Uh, I don't know. I think it's … uh …
[04:09.45]what time's it? I think it's going on dinner.
[04:12.58]M: Uh, it's three thirty.
[04:15.43]W: Three thirty. Uh … We'd better wait.
[04:18.40]M: Why, Mum?
[04:19.88]W: Well, what kind of snack do you want?
[04:21.80]M: Candy?
[04:28.66]Well, what else can you suggest?
[04:31.32]M: Candy.
[04:32.43]W: Candy. No, I don't think …
[04:34.80]I think you'd better wait.
[04:44.57]M: Uh, today.
[04:45.96]W: Well, what about a small sandwich?
[04:48.17]M: Okay.
[04:48.98]W: Okay, I'll in a minute.
[04:51.01]Play with your toys while you're waiting for it.
[04:53.80]Questions 19 to 22 are based on the conversation you have just heard.
[04:59.62]19. Why doesn't the mother give her son something to eat?
[05:19.45]20. What snack does the boy want at the beginning of the conversation?
[05:39.19]21. What snack does the boy want to eat at last?
[05:58.83]22. What does the mother ask the boy to do while she is preparing the snack?
[06:19.77]Conversation Two
[06:22.01]M: Uh, where am I?
[06:24.33]W: Excuse me. Do you need any help?
[06:26.72]M: Nah, I … I'm just looking … well …
[06:30.26]Uh, well, actually … yeah. Um …
[06:33.61]I want to go to the science museum,
[06:36.19]but I've been lost for the past few hours,
[06:38.94]and I can't use ticket machines.
[06:41.43]W: Ah, well, just press this button.
[06:44.06]And from here, it's a dollar fifty.
[06:47.38]M: Okay.
[06:48.49]W: Then, get on the train at number 4.
[06:51.44]M: Alright. Oh, and how often do the trains come around this time of day?
[06:56.36]W: Usually, they come about every six minutes.
[06:59.33]M: Okay. And where do I get off the train?
[07:02.63]W: Get off at State Street Station, three stops from here.
[07:07.32]M: Okay. I got it. Thanks for your help.
[07:09.76]W: No problem. Good luck.
[07:12.20]Questions 23 to 25 are based on the conversation you have just heard.
[07:17.85]23. Where does the man want to go?
[07:36.00]24. How often do the trains come?
[07:54.57]25. Where should the man get off the train?
[08:14.23]Section B
[08:16.16]Passage One
[08:17.88]It was not until one hundred and fifty years ago
[08:24.93]Thanks to an English doctor and his wife,
[08:27.34]the door was opened to this zoological study.
[08:30.80]Reasoning that these animals' tremendous9 size
[08:34.23]must have made them terrible creatures,
[08:36.84]scientists combined two Greek words,
[08:46.24]After many years of study,
[08:55.50]Unbelievable as it may seem,
[08:57.63]not all dinosaurs were carnivorous, that is, meat eating.
[09:00.73]Many were herbivorous, or vegetarians14.
[09:03.52]By reassembling the bones found at digging sites,
[09:10.70]and learn great deal about the dinosaur's living conditions.
[09:18.26]but also the water and sky.
[09:21.44]Questions 26 to 29 are based on the passage you have just heard.
[09:27.92]26. By what name did scientists call these creatures?
[09:47.82]27. When do scientists believe that the last of the dinosaurs disappeared?
[10:08.48]28. How have scientists been able to learn of the living conditions of these animals?
[10:29.54]29. Which of the following is not true of these animals?
[10:49.96]Passage Two
[10:51.67]Robert Edwards became blind in an car accident nine years ago.
[11:01.13]Last week, he was taking a walk near his home
[11:04.28]when a thunderstorm approached.
[11:06.81]He hid under a tree and was struck by lightning.
[11:10.34]He was knocked to the ground and woke up some twenty minutes later,
[11:14.31]lying face down in bed.
[11:16.84]A short time later, he awoke;
[11:18.99]his legs were unfeeling and he was trembling,
[11:22.52]but, when he opened his eyes,
[11:24.28]he could see the clock across the room fading in and out in front of him.
[11:29.62]When his wife entered,
[11:30.89]he saw her for the first time in nine years.
[11:34.61]Doctors confirm the flash of lightning,
[11:37.32]but they are unable to explain the occurrence18.
[11:40.72]The only possible explanation offered by one doctor was that,
[11:44.67]since Edwards lost his sight as a result of injury in a terrible accident,
[11:55.85]Questions 30 to 32 are based on the passage you have just heard.
[12:01.56]30. What was the first thing that he saw after being struck by lightning?
[12:21.84]31. Which of the statements is not true?
[12:40.60]32. What was the reason given by one doctor that Edwards could see again?
[13:01.92]Passage Three
[13:07.48]"do it yourself" is a way of life.
[13:09.81]Many people repair their own cars,
[13:12.07]build their own garages,
[13:13.43]and even rebuild their own houses.
[13:15.66]Soon many of them will also be writing their own books.
[13:19.15]In Hollywood there is a company that publishes children's book
[13:22.95]with the help of computers.
[13:24.86]Although other book companies also publish that way,
[13:28.09]this company is not like the others.
[13:30.03]It allows the reader to become the leading character in the stories
[13:34.17]with the help of computers.
[13:36.25]Here is how they do it.
[13:38.09]Let us suppose the child is named Henry.
[13:41.20]He lives in New York, and has a god named Jody.
[13:44.62]The computer uses this information to make up a story with pictures.
[13:48.86]The story is then printed up.
[13:50.69]A child who receives such a book might say,
[13:53.96]"This book is about me." So the company calls itself
[13:57.40]the "Me Books Publishing Company".
[13:59.91]Children like the Me Books because they like to see
[14:03.46]in print their own names an the names of their friends and their pets.
[14:07.73]But more important, in this way,
[14:09.54]readers are much more interested in reading the stories.
[14:16.97]Questions 33 to 35 are based on the passage you have just heard.
[14:23.52]33. Why do Americans do most things themselves?
[14:42.69]34. What distinguishes22 this company from the others?
[15:01.57]35. What are the "Me Books"?
[15:13.53]Section C
[15:15.17]Many people who are rich are also well known.
[15:23.12]His family moved to San Francisco from Los Angeles
[15:26.77]when he was one month old.
[15:29.26]That's where he grew up.
[15:31.04]At the age of seventeen,
[15:32.60]he was hit by a train.
[15:34.77]Although he was not seriously hurt,
[15:41.18]Instead of going to college,
[15:42.76]he bought a small store.
[15:44.73]Six months later,
[15:45.86]the government bought his land to build a new highway.
[15:49.34]He sold it for $95,000.
[15:52.91]With this money he moved to Detroit.
[15:55.71]He started a small company that made parts for the car manufacturers25.
[16:01.20]It was very successful and by the time he was 23 he was a millionaire.
[16:07.78]When he was 24 he got married.
[16:10.38]He and his wife had three daughters in the next five years.
[16:15.08]By the time he was 30 he had over ten million dollars.
[16:19.51]Then tragedy struck,
[16:21.60]he was involved in a traffic accident.
[16:24.54]He did not die but his wife and daughters did.
[16:28.14]Six months later he sold everything he owned
[16:33.77]Ted then moved to New York.
[16:36.46]He lived for the next forty years in a one room apartment.
[16:40.80]He spent most of his days wandering through the city
[16:44.56]looking in garbage cans for food.
[16:46.81]He never cooked.
[16:48.16]He rarely talked to anyone except himself.
[16:51.80]Most people were afraid of him.
[16:54.35]His clothes were always old and dirty!
[16:58.40]Shortly before he died,
[16:59.81]he moves back to Los Angeles.
[17:05.84]because he had no money and no job.
[17:08.71]City workers tried to help him.
[17:11.11]They offered him work but he would not work.
[17:13.97]Towards the end he would not talk to anyone at all.
[17:18.22]When he died he was a lonely man.
[17:21.20]But someone remembered his name.
[17:24.13]They knew he had lived in Detroit and had been successful.
[17:29.00]It was learned that he had put his stocks in a box at a Detroit bank.
[17:34.95]After they were sold and all the taxes paid,
[17:38.49]there was still over a hundred million dollars left.
[17:45.90]Many people who are rich are also well known.
[17:49.41]Ted Sweenay was an exception to this rule.
[17:54.13]His family moved to San Francisco from Los Angeles
[17:57.64]when he was one month old.
[18:01.33]That's where he grew up.
[18:03.27]At the age of seventeen,
[18:04.75]he was hit by a train.
[18:07.64]Although he was not seriously hurt,
[18:11.15]the railroad paid him $ 25,000.
[18:15.59]Instead of going to college,
[18:16.87]he bought a small store.
[18:18.93]Six months later,
[18:20.06]the government bought his land to build a new highway.
[18:24.48]He sold it for $95,000.
[18:28.06]With this money he moved to Detroit.
[18:30.82]He started a small company that made parts for the car manufacturers.
[18:38.52]It was very successful and by the time he was 23 he was a millionaire.
[18:45.97]When he was 24 he got married.
[18:48.65]He and his wife had three daughters in the next five years.
[18:53.40]By the time he was 30 he had over ten million dollars.
[18:57.64]Then tragedy struck,
[18:59.69]he was involved in a traffic accident.
[19:03.02]He did not die but his wife and daughters did.
[19:06.26]Six months later he sold everything he owned
[19:09.49]and put his money in stocks.
[20:01.94]Ted then moved to New York.
[20:04.56]He lived for the next forty years in a one room apartment.
[20:08.89]He spent most of his days wandering through the city
[20:12.47]looking in garbage cans for food.
[20:14.99]He never cooked.
[20:16.27]He rarely talked to anyone except himself.
[20:19.93]Most people were afraid of him.
[21:12.63]His clothes were always old and dirty!
[21:16.51]Shortly before he died,
[21:17.94]he moves back to Los Angeles.
[21:20.48]After spending two weeks there he was put in jail
[21:23.75]because he had no money and no job.
[21:26.83]City workers tried to help him.
[21:29.17]They offered him work but he would not work.
[21:32.08]Towards the end he would not talk to anyone at all.
[21:36.33]When he died he was a lonely man.
