【录音原文】
W: What I don’t understand is why you’re so keen on the Layer-de-la-Haye house, Roger. Why on earth should we actually choose, to live out in a village, even if it is a popular village, or so the house agent’s description says, when we could get a place right in the center of Colchester? Look ... we’ve got all these house descriptions. And we’ve got time to go and see all of them. You know that I’d much prefer to be in the town and ...
M: ... and be boxed in by a thousand other houses ... surrounded by a thousand faceless neighbors? No Julia ... let’s go for the village. After all I’m the one who has to do all the traveling. Back and forth to London every day. And I’d rather add a fifteen-minute bus ride to the train ride.
W: That’s all very well ... all very well to take that romantic attitude. You know ... you think you can get out of everything and wriggle out of any argument. What about my preferences? You are being selfish you know.
M: Selfish? Me?
W: Yes you. Think of the children. Roger. It seems to me that you’re so carried away with the idea of living in the village and far from the crowd. I think your personal likes and dislikes are making you anything but practical. Alex for example ... he’ll be going to secondary school next year. And as far as I’m concerned, the nearer the school the better. Have you read the description of your beautiful village house? Where is it? Yes ... here we are ... local primary school within walking distance it says. That of course means that the nearest secondary school will be in Colchester.
M: There are such things as school buses you know. And even if there weren’t. Alex is perfectly able ... perfectly capable of using public transport.
W: Why at his age? ... And think of Sylvia. She’s just getting used to the idea of being in the nursery, can you imagine there being a nursery school in Layer-de-la-Have? And I must say I ... yes, I like to be free of her for pan of the day, so that I can get the shopping and the housework done ... quite apart from it being good for her.
M: All fight ... all right. You’ve made your point. But after all these years in London I would have preferred a bit of fresh air and greenery and ... you know ... the occasional toddle round the nine-hole golf course they mention. It is nine-hole, isn’t it? Yes ... Anyway ... It’s goodbye to that ... to the “pleasant and neat gardens front and rear, apple tree and ornamental fish Pond, patio and ...”
W: Stop talking through your hat. You’ve never been a lover of fresh air ... your overcoat’s on as soon as the first gentle touch of the first spring breeze. And as for golf ... well ... we both know you love a beer at the clubhouse rather than any outdoor sports. Why is it that you’re always insisting that you like the country life, you love getting up early, you adore a good brisk walk, and so on and so on. when in fact ...
M: But I do like the country ... I would love getting up early ... I’d often be out there having a good brisk walk ... if only ...
W: If only what?
M: If only ... Well ... if only we lived somewhere that would make it all possible and worthwhile. Never mind. Colchester is good enough I suppose. There’ll be fields and trees nearby.
W: Exactly. Now just look at this, the description of this house. I think we ought to go and see it. It’s east of the town center, so you won’t be too boxed in as you say, and shops, schools and everything else are in easy reach. We’d have the best of both worlds, you with your golf and beer ... me with my fenceless neighbors.
M: And there’s another consideration. It costs ...,what ...? 2300 less. With that we’ll be saving for quite a nice sailing-boat.
W: Oh no!
M: You know Julia ... I’ve always wanted to have a little sailing-boat ... out there in the front garden. Then on Saturdays or Sundays or Bank Holidays we can hitch the trailer to the car and go to the nearest bit of river or sea. It’d do the children a world of good. I’d like them to have what I’ve never had ... while they’re still young ...

第7题：
问答题Some believe that people should never be satisfied with what they have and should always strive for something new and different, but there are also people who believe that those who constantly feel satisfied tend to be happy. What is your opinion? Write a composition of about 400 words on the following topic:Does satisfaction bring happiness? In the first part of your writing you should present your thesis statement, and in the second part you should support the thesis statement with appropriate details. In the last part you should bring what you have written to a natural conclusion or a summary. Marks will be awarded for content, organization, grammar and appropriateness. Failure to follow the above instructions may result in a loss of marks.正确答案：
Does satisfaction bring happiness? Usually people are unhappy because they are not satisfied with what they have got. But do you think they will be happy if they are satisfied with what they have achieved? This seems a tricky question. Some believe that satisfaction brings happiness, but some believe that dissatisfaction can bring a happy life. If we mean by happiness is continuous improvement of human life, then it is dissatisfaction that brings happiness.
To begin with, dissatisfaction can motive personal development. As human society has been developing at an ever increasing speed since the industrial revolution, people find that there is more and more room to better their life. If they are unhappy with the education they have received, they will try to study on. If they are unhappy with their present jobs, they will try to find one that suits them better. And if they are unhappy with their relationship with others, they will try to improve it or find a better one. Therefore, dissatisfaction encourages people to seek life of a better quality rather than stay with the present one, and this process constitutes their development.
Besides helping individuals to develop, dissatisfaction can also promote the continuous development of the whole society. Common sense tells us that there cannot be a perfect society, therefore, if a society is satisfied with itself, it only means that it is willing to live with its problems. A society with dissatisfaction is in fact one that dislikes problems. It will find and solve the problems, and this will certainly help the society to keep moving forward. We can take China as an example. Chinese people used to believe that satisfaction brings happiness, but they had actually been living a very hard life before the 1980s. The reform and opening-up policy was adopted in the 1980s just because the Chinese were no longer satisfied with the society at that time. Facts show that the change of mentality has brought about thorough changes to the society.
Last but not least, dissatisfaction has also been a driving force of human civilization as a whole. It is reasonable to say that in the primitive society, science came into being because the ancestors were not satisfied with their understanding of the world, and technology came into being because they were not satisfied with working purely with their hands. The curiosity and desire has in fact led to the prosperity of science and technology in later times. Similarly, in the artistic world, new propositions and practices keep emerging because people are not pleased with the existing ways in expressing their feelings and emotions.
To sum up, dissatisfaction has played a vital role in the development of individuals, the whole society as well as human civilization. Although too much dissatisfaction may be harmful, a proper sense of dissatisfaction can be very beneficial. When everybody is pleased with what they have, the world will stop moving forward, which virtually means the end of humankind.解析：
题目中的happiness是一个很模糊的概念，每个人可能都有自己的理解。在引言段中，作者在通过问题引出话题后，先给出“幸福”的定义才明确自己的观点，这样全文的讨论就有了比较坚实的基础。引言段的问题提得自然到位，既抓住了读者的心理，又点出了文章的中心议题。文章的正文段从个人、社会、人类文明三个角度阐述了不满的重要性。这三个要点不仅范围从小到大展开，议题也是从具体到抽象逐步深入。从论据上看，除了逻辑推理外，作者还用了中国社会的发展作例子，具有较好的说服力。文章结论段简洁明了。作者用一个句子做总结，然后用本讨论话题的意义作最终评论。 -

第13题：
问答题With the amazing technological development of computer and of the Internet, virtual games played on the Internet are becoming more and more popular. Many claim that playing games teaches us about life. Do you agree with this view?正确答案：
Playing certain games can teach us about life. For example, some educational games are designed to teach us about science, geography, sociology, etc. Games of chance can help us to experience and accept disappointment. However, I think this majority of modern-day games are based on fantasy and they cannot teach us much about life.
Nowadays, young people seem to favor computer games. The ones they like best either tend to distort reality or to promote fantasy. The fantasy games are full of aliens, lethal robots, walking dead people, or monsters. A good example is the game, “Resident Evil”. It is all about a virus that kills people and turns them into walking zombies. The player scores points by destroying the zombies with certain weapons. Other games, like “DOA 2” and “Counter-strike” distort reality by allowing the player to beat up or kill other people without suffering any consequences. Many games actually glorify violence or make it look like fun. Some racing games allow you to run over people and score points. I doubt that anyone can learn about lire through playing these games. In fact, many juvenile delinquents commit crimes without fully understanding what they have done and without having any idea of severe punishment. It is a pity that they generally regard their acts as means of fun because they mistake the real world for the fantasy world.
Another reason that modern-day games cannot teach us about lire is that they tend to be addicting. That is to say, they actually distract you from going outside and experiencing life. Many middle school and high school boys and university students spend numerous weekend hours glued to their computers, playing the latest fantasy game. They really should be outside, socializing, exploring their surroundings and learning about life. These modern day games actually promote the addiction. For example, most “shooting games” give you only a few “lives” but they incorporate countless play levels and episodes. It forces you to play an infinite number of hours as you attempt over and over again to reach the end of the game. All the while,the world is passing you by.
Can playing games teach us about life? Certain ones can. However,I think the majority of modern—day games actually do the opposite. They either distort reality or they keep you from experiencing it.解析：
文章引文段开头肯定了有些游戏能交给人们很多东西，接着笔锋一转表明现在大部分网络游戏没有教育功能。在正文段中分两点阐述自己的观点，其中使用了逻辑推理和例子来论证自己的观点。结尾段作者由问题引出主题，重申了自己的观点。 -

第15题：
问答题Scientific and technological advances have improved our daily lives. However, in many fields scientists cannot solve the problems they have created themselves. Do you agree or disagree with this opinion? Give your reasons. Write a composition of about 400 words on this topic.正确答案：
Scientific and technological advances have, admittedly, improved people's daily lives and dramatically changed the way people live. People nowadays actually owe a great debt to the inventors who have pushed forward the development of science and technology. However, I am a strong believer in the claim that scientists in many fields cannot solve the problems they have created themselves, for the following reasons :
The creation of a new scientific and technological product is a purely academic matter, but its application may be affected by political, historical and military factors. For example, the original purpose of cloning was simply scientific—to change undesirable genes at the embryo stage, and to alleviate pain and illness of the patients. However, some people with ulterior motives may take advantage of this technique to clone human genes. This is sure to cause serious moral uncertainty and chaos for the human race. The inventors of cloning might have never imagined that the technology is now used for dishonorable purposes, and they can only rely on the government to prohibit human cloning by enforcing strict laws.
Sometimes it is impossible for researchers and scientists to predict the future application of the product they are working on. Atomic energy is a case in point. Its study and research are conducted with the aim of saving the world's limited energy resources and optimizing the use of current energy sources, such as water. Yet people are saddened by the news that atomic technology is used to manufacture dangerous weapons for the purpose of threatening or even destroying other countries and innocent people. For example, to retaliate Japan's attack on its Pearl Harbour, the United States dropped two atomic bombs in Hiroshima and Nagasaki, causing huge mortality and destruction, which were absolutely never dreamed by the scientists who invented the weapon. And once it was put into military use, the inventors could do nothing to change the fearful result.
In conclusion, scientists in many fields find themselves helpless when it comes to controlling the application of the technology they have labored so hard to produce and to solve the problems they have created.解析：
针对“科学家无法解决一些科技进步带来的问题”这一观点，范文作者在第一段末表示赞同。第二、三段具体解释了赞同的原因。首先，科技的应用受到政治、历史和军事因素的影响。其次，科学家不能完全预测产品的未来用途。其中恰当地运用了实例支持分论点。结尾段简洁地总结了中心思想。 -
第16题：
单选题According to the fifth paragraph, we can infer that _____.Athe total number of cops in Cerritos is no less than 53
Bgang members of nearby cities enjoy immunity in Cerritos
Cthe crime rates in Cerritos are relatively low
DLos Angeles country sheriff is responsible for the expense of policing Cerritos
正确答案： D解析：
推断题。由题干定位到文章第五段。该段第四句提到，这一年共记录了53起严重袭击案，平均每个警察不到1起，由此可推测，Cerrito的警察数量超过了53个，故可排除A项。由尾句可知，附近的犯罪团伙偶尔在这里打球是因为这里治安良好，不会遭到对手的袭击，故可排除B项。由该地警察被视为最轻松的工作和严重袭击案件的数量之少可知，Cerrito的犯罪率极低，而不是相对较低，故排除C项。该段第二句提到，尽管与洛杉矶县法院之间有一个维持治安的合同，但Cerrito还是承担了修建工作和配备警员的费用，由此可以推测，根据所签合同，洛杉矶县法院应该承担Cerrito维持治安的开销，故答案为D项。 -

Bit has ranked first on the list of best sellers for several times.
Cit has the same theme with the book written by the two girls.
Dit is another book that the two girls have ever written.
正确答案： A解析：
推断题由题干定位到文章第三段。该段主要介绍了一本名为Breaking the Code的书，倒数第二句提到，这本书类似于另一本名为Kids Are From Mars, Parents Are From Venus的书，在于它们均解释了青少年的语言和行为，由此可见两本书的相似之处在于其共同的主题，故答案为C项。选项A的表述与文意相矛盾，故排除。B、D两项文中没有提及，故排除。 -

BOthers’ definitions are more convincing than professor Levitt’s.
CDifferent people have different ideas on globalization.
DThings are different after two decades’ time.
正确答案： D解析：
细节题。由题干关键词SustainAbility可定位到文章第三段。本段中冒号后的内容意为：正是由于Levitt没能在其文章中对全球化给出令人信服的定义，因而造成了后来大量定义的出现，即选项A所表述的内容，而不是选项B（别人的定义更令人信服），或是选项C（不同的人对此持有的看法也不同）。从1983年Levitt发表文章预测到这一现象到2007年SustainAbility提到对市场全球化缺乏统一的定义，其间虽然经历了二十年之久，但这并不是出现大量不同定义的原因，故排除[D]。综上所述，本题答案为A项。 -

正确答案： D解析：
推断题文章第九段首句提到，这本书的主要内容是关于青少年的思想，故选项B错误。由第六段首句可知，并非所有人都赞同此书的观点，故C项错误。D项在文中没有提及，故排除。文章第六段尾句育儿专家Nancy提到，在孩子们抗拒沟通的时候，有很多方法可以让他们愿意倾听，也就是这本书介绍的内容。由文章可知，作者的观点实际上与Nancy一致，且文章七、八两段都提到了书中介绍的育儿方法，故答案为A项。 -
