2.Hello, new students! This is a message from the Students Union Committee. We've been at the university for at least a year now, so we can give you some good tips. Don't worry - we remember being new and making a lot of mistakes! And we haven't forgotten feeling a little bit scared. First, as you know, there are no longer any grants. If you borrow money from the government, remember that like all loans, you have to pay it back. Spending all your money in the first week is not a sensible strategy. Try to make a budget for each term and stick to it. But if you are struggling to make ends meet, you can get a part-time job-restaurants and bars in the town take lots of students on in the evenings and at weekends. Come and see us for advice. Stop worrying about making new friends. Start to join the sports and hobbies societies - they're cheap and you can begin meeting a lot of people that way. It's a great chance to take up a completely new hobby. Living in a new city a long way from home can be very stressful. One tip, don't forget your parents. After all, they are paying your tuition fees here. You will be very busy working and enjoying yourself, but stop to phone your parents sometimes and don't forget to go home for the weekend from time to time. And remember to take your dirty washing! Finally, remember to work hard and play hard. Go on working steadily towards your first degree (BA or BSc) throughout your three years here - try to keep things in perspective. You'll always find someone in the Student Union office if you need to talk.1). What does the word "scared" mean in the second paragraph?2). What does the word "grants" mean in the third paragraph?3).

    (阅读理解题)How do you acquire confidence? Speak English with friends first because with them you can speak freely without feeling shy.Then try your ability with your teachers and with foreigners if you have an opportunity to meet them.Don’t be afraid of mistakes.Nobody is above mistakes; and don’t be afraid to ask questions about things you don’t know.This is the way to acquire knowledge.Not until you begin to think in English rather than Chinese can you be said to know the language.This is not a superhuman achievement—only a question of practice.Thinking in English will help you to truly understand how the language is spoken.Read novels to build vocabulary, thus gaining confidence.Start with small volumes of 30 to 40 pages.Write down any new word you discover and look it up in your dictionary.Learn how to use the new word by making sentences with it.Bring the word to your teacher to have it explained more fully.Don’t be angry when you learn a new word today and forget it tomorrow.To forget is a natural process; to remember is unnatural and requires effort.Of 10 new words learnt in a day, only two or three will remain in the memory.The others you will forget and have to relearn.When learning them for the second time, they will come more easily, and this time you probably will remember nearly all of them.A small minority, however, may elude you again, and have to be learnt for a third time.Constant repetition is necessary.

    (1).You can gain confidence by speaking English with the following people but ______?

    A、 foreigners

    B、 teachers

    C、 family members

    D、 friends

    (2).When can you be said to know English?

    第一篇

    Walking to Exercise the Brain

    Do you think sitting and studying all the time will improve your grades?Think again.Getting some exer-
    cise may help,too.
    New research with old people suggests that taking regular walks helps them pay attention better than if
    they didn't exercise.
    Previous research had shown that mice learn,remember,and pay attention better after a few weeks of
    working out on a running wheel.Mice that exercise have greater blood flow to the brain than those who don't.
    Their brain cells also make more connections.
    Neuroscientists（神经科学家）from the University of Illinois at Urbana Champaign wanted to find out if
    the same thing is true for people.First,they measured the physical fitness of 41 adults,ages 58 to 77,after
    each person walked 1 mile.Then,participants looked at arrows on a computer screen and had to use computer
    keys to show which way one particular arrow was pointing.
    Adults who were physically fit were faster at the arrow task,and their answers were just as accurate as
    their less-fit peers,the researchers found.The fitter participants also had more blood flow to a part of their
    brain responsible for paying attention and making decisions.
    In a second study , 15 elderly people who completed a 6-month aerobic-training（有氧运动）course were
    faster at attention tasks compared with 14 seniors who just did stretching and toning exercises（韵律操）for
    the same amount of time.
    So,even going for a walk every 2 or 3 days for just 10 to 45 minutes can help.That should be good news
    for the elderly.
    The effects of exercising on the brains of younger people haven't been studied yet. Still,it can't hurt to
    take occasional breaks and go for a walk or run around with friends.Whatever you do,though,don't try to
    read and walk at the same time.You could end up hurting yourself!

    It is suggested in the last paragraph that people should______________.
    A:run around once a week
    B:not read and walk at the same time
    C:go for a walk every day
    D:not hurt their friends while exercising

    答案：B
    解析：
    第二段提到：针对老年人的新的研究显示，经常运动能让老年人更好地集中精力。
    第三段提到：以前的研究证明老鼠在轮子上奔跑数周后它们的学习、记忆力和精神集 中程度都有所提高。运动的老鼠大脑中的血液流量大于不运动的，它们的脑细胞的联系也更 频繁。
    第五段提到：研究员发现身体健康的成年人完成箭头测试的速度更快，他们的答案和 身体状况不佳的参加者一样准确。
    第七段提到：每两到三天出去散步仅仅10到45分钟都会对健康有益。
    最后一段提到：不要一边走路一边看书，你有可能伤到自己。第二篇 本文介绍了一个有趣的现象：蚂蚁的身体能向外释放一种化学物质将自己的死讯告诉给 同伴。

    问答题
    One Number Gets It All—Phone, Fax or Voice Mail　　Tired of having to remember different numbers for your office phone, fax, pager or mobile phone? No room on your business card for the raft of numbers that are now part of everyday business contacts?　　The answer is at hand—or rather in a number. One number can now be used for all your different devices and communications, thanks to a new system devised by a technology company which uses the science available in the high-growth, hi-tech modem world.　　Instead of numbers belonging to different devices, the company assigns you one number belonging to you, the person. You have one number for phone, fax, pagers and mobile phones. All your calls and contacts come to this one number so that you can divert unwanted callers politely to your voice mail if you want.　　Voice messages that come into the same personal number can be turned into emails for delivery to the desktop of your computer or to another person’s computer. You can have trouble-free call-forwarding anywhere in the world. Those are some of the features of Bloodhound, a new service offered by Auckland-based computer telephony integrator—Powercall Technologies Ltd. General manager Nick Little said the company, a subsidiary of the Brocker Technology Group,　　came to the new one-number system when they wanted to set up in a new office. It would have cost $US 250 (RMB ￥2,000) a month to lease a small phone switchboard. To avoid the capital outlay or the hardware in the office, they set out instead to develop a switchboard based on a PC computer. Then, realizing the market was awash in such products, the company looked at ways to use its experience in voice mail, interactive voice response and unified messaging to develop new subscriber-based services.　　Mr. Little said Bloodhound, which costs $US 20 (RMB ￥160) a month for full phone, fax and messaging, side-stepped the number portability issue (whether phone owners can use the same number in different phone company systems or not) because subscribers were given not a telephone number, but their own personal number.　　“The number we issue is a virtual number belonging to the person. It does not terminate on a　　physical device, Mr. Little said. The subscriber sets up devices behind the scenes.　　Bloodhound runs on NT servers and subscribers pay their telephone carriers for line connection and any toll charges. They also pay for calls received on mobile phones via Bloodhound at US$ 25c (RMB ￥2) a minute. But they can change phone carrier company or exchange without having to change all their stationery.　　Callers are greeted by an automated virtual assistant, which locates the Bloodhound subscriber or takes messages. Calls can be screened, with known callers announced to the subscriber who can choose to accept a call or divert it to another person or voice mail. Fax can be forwarded to any location for printing, without the cellular charges associated with cellphone-based fax services. And if users have a sudden inspiration, they can call Bloodhound and dictate a message for recall later.　　Simon Morgan from advertising and direct marketing agency Carpe Diem has been a pilot user of the service throughout the year 2000. He said Bloodhound helped his five-person company present a consistent and professional face to the world.　　One of our staff works from home part-time, but with a Bloodhound number available to the world as her office number. As far as the world is connected, she works in the office. It’s also useful if I’m working at a client site. I can use the ‘I am Here’ feature and get calls forwarded through.

    正确答案： 【参考译文】
    —个号码解决所有的问题 你是否已经厌倦被迫去记忆那些不同的号码——办公室电话、传真、呼机或是手机号码?你的名片上是否已经没有地方可以记下这些数目繁多的号码?而它们现在已经成为日常工作联系中不可或缺的组成部分。
    解决这一问题的答案就在我们手边,或者说用一个号码就可以解决所有问题。在当前高速发展的高科技现代社会,一家科技公司设计推出了一个新系统。通过它,我们就可以使用同一个号码进行所有的装置设置和通信联络。
    该公司会分给你一个专属号码,也就是个人号码,以此取代用于不同装置的那些号码。这样,你就可以在电话、传真、呼机和手机上使用同一个号码。所有的电话和联系都经由这个号码连接。这样,你就可以在对方不知情的情况下,将不愿接听的电话转入语音邮件进行处理。
    语音信息可以以电子邮件的方式发送至你的电脑或他人的个人电脑上。你可以从世界各地毫不费力地发送呼叫信息。这些只是“大警犬”的特色服务中的部分内容。“大警犬”是由强力呼叫技术有限公司提供的一项新型服务。它的公司总部设在奥克兰,是一家计算机电话通信集成公司。
    该公司是布罗克技术集团的子公司。在谈到这一系统的创意时,总经理尼克·利特尔说,这一想法是在他们打算建立一个新的办公地点时想到的。他们原本每月要花费250美元(人民币2,000元)租用一个小型电话交换台。为了避免资本支出,即办公室的硬件开支,公司便着手开发了一种基于个人电脑的交换平台。之后,公司发现市场上充斥着此类产品,于是就着眼于利用自己在语音邮件、互动语音反馈以及联合传送信息等方面的经验,发展以用户为核心的新型服务项目。
    利特尔先生介绍说,“大警犬”的用户每月只需花费20美元(人民币160元),即可享受全部电话、传真和信息传送的服务。因为它分给用户的不是同一个电话号码,而是用户自己的个人号码,就避开了号码转移的问题(即,不知电话拥有者能否在不同的电话公司系统中使用同一个号码)。
    “我们分派的号码是属于用户个人的虚拟号码。它并不以实际存在的装置作为终端。”利特尔先生说,“用户是在幕后设立各个装置的。”
    “大警犬”在NT服务器上运行,用户需要向他们的电话传送公司支付线路连接费和其他使用费。他们还需支付经由“大警犬”接听的手机话费,费用为每分钟25美分(人民币2元)。如果不满意,用户可以更换电话传送公司,但无需再更换其他的硬件设备。
    系统设置由一个自动化的“虚拟助手”接收呼叫者的来电,它会找出该“大警犬”用户的位置并收取信息。接收到的电话可以通过将呼叫者的姓名告知用户的方式被筛选,用户可以选择接听这个电话或是把它转给另一个人或转入语音部件进行处理。传真可被传送到任何地点打印,同时无须支付与手机传真业务有关的手机费用。如果用户突然有了灵感,他们可以呼叫“大警犬”,将讯息储存以备日后之需。
    2000年,广告直销代理公司——卡普·戴姆公司的西蒙·摩根首先试用了这一系统。他认为,在“大警犬”的帮助下,他那五人公司得以以始终如一的专业面貌出现在世人面前。“我们公司有一位职员在家里做兼职。但是当我们把‘大警犬’设置为她的办公室号码时,在客户看来,她就是在办公室工作。即使我外出在客户那里办事,我也可以通过‘我在这里’的特色服务把电话转接过来。”

    B I hated dinner partics. ButI decidedto give them anothar shot because I'm in LondonAnd my friend Mallery invited me.

There, 'Tin having a dinner party' means: "I'm booklng a table for t2 at8 restaurant you can't afford and we'll be sharing the cheque evenly, no matter what you eat." Worse, in Manhanan there is always someone who leaves before the bijanives. They'll throw down cash, half of what they owe, and then people like me, who don'drink, end up paying even more. But ifI try to tree the same trick, the hostess will shou:"Where are you going?" And it's not likeI can say I have somewhere to go: everyone know shave nowhere to go

    Butin London, dinner parties are in people's homes. Not only that, the guests are aninteresting mix. The last timeI went to one, the guests were from France, India. Denmark and Nigeria; it was like a gathering at the United Nations.hI New York. the mix is less striking It's like a gathering at Blooming dale's,a well-known department store.

    For New Yorkers, talking about other parts of the world means Brooklyn and Queensi New York. But at Mallery's, whenI said thatI had been to Myanmar recently, people knew where it was.In New York people would thinkit wasa usual new club

    Musical Chairs
    Do you know how to play a game called"Musical Chairs"?It is easy to play and most people enjoy it. All you need are some chairs,some people and some way of making music.You may use a piano or any other musical instrument,if someone can play it. You may use a tape recorder. You can even use a radio.
    Put the chairs in a row.The chairs may be put in twos,back to back.A better way is to have the chairs in one row with each chair facing in the opposite direction to the chair next to it.
    The game is easy.When the music starts,the players walk round the chairs.Everyone goes in the same direction,of course,they should walk in time to the music .If the music is fast they should walk quickly .If the music is slow,they should walk slowly.
    The person playing music cannot see the people in the game.When the music stops,the play-ers try to sit on the chairs.If a person cannot find a chair to sit on,he drops out. Then,before the music starts again,one chair must be taken away.When the music stops again,one more player will be out.
    At last,there will be two players and one chair. The one who sits on the chair when the music stops is the winner.

    Which of the following statements is NOT true?
    A: The game"Musical Chairs"is not difficult to learn.
    B: The last one can sit on the last chair.
    C: The winner can sit on the chair.
    D: If the person plays music,he cannot be the winner.

    答案：B
    解析：
    因为在第四段有这样一句If a person cannot find a chair to sit on , he drops out.那么肯定是椅子比人数少，这样才会有人没地方坐，故选A。


    在第一段中提到了A、B、C三种可以播放音乐的器具，而D项没有，因为一般来说电话是不能播放音乐的，故选D。


    第二段的 Put the chairs in a row就是“把椅子排成一排”之意。故选D。


    由第三段中的句子When the music starts, the players walk round the chairs．故选C。


    本题可用排除法，由第一段第二句It is easy to play,A项正确；由最后一句The one who sits on the chair when the music stops is the winner. C项正确；由第四段的句子The person playing music cannot see the people in the game. D项正确。故选B。

    The music industry and You Tube are set to go head-to-head this week in a crucial vote in brussels that could force the digital giant to pay billions of dollars in fees to popular artists such as Taylor Swift Ed Sheeran and Katy Perry.For years the music industry has argued that You Tube exploits the lack of legal protection around music videos being viewed on its service to pay minimal amounts to artists and labels YouTube got a bloody nose in last months vote but its supporters are expected to gather the MEPs needed to challenge that decision and force a vote by all 751 members of the parliament Last month's vote was a fantastic result,but I'm sure there will be some push back.YouTube is the biggest music service,full stop,by some margin and has been a severe imbalance in what artists receive.It is righting a wrong really.said Martin Mills,founder of Beggars Group.Taylor Swift has led the fight for artists to get a better share of revenues in the age of the digital music giants.In 2014,she pulled her music from Spotify,saying artists receive a tiny royalty per song play and has been the catalyst for the much better deals struck by record labels with Spotify in the past 18 months“Despacito would probably not have become the global phenomenon it did without YouTube,”says Mark Mulligan,analyst at MIDiA Research.Last year,Luis Fonsi and daddy Yankee's reggaeton hit took the world by storm,becoming the most streamed song of all time You tube is the number one place where young people discover music.If you are going to create global hits you need You Tube and it is becoming more important to musicians."YouTube makes money from advertising and last year paid 856m（&650m）in royalties to music companies-an estimated 67 cents from each of its 1.3 billion music lovers annually.In the UK,record labels and artists earn more than double the royalties from the sale of 4.1m vinyl records than they did from the 25bn music videos watched on YouTube last year Musician Billy Bragg says the battle against You Tube is less about the potential financial windfall that artists might get,and more about making sure the new digital music power players play fair.We,ve all seen how,with the recent data protection legislation,the European Union has shifted power to the individual online,he says.u Now theyre seeking to do the same for artists.All were asking for is a level playing field.rebalancing the power between artists and the internet tech giants who are making massive profits while paying tiny royalties You Tube has made moves to mollify the industry,launching a premium subscription service-two days before the crucial European vote-a move Jean-Michel Jarre,electro-pioneer and president of music body Cisac,has cynically called"indirect lobbying"to try to improve its image
    What can be inferred about Martin Mills'remark in Paragraph 3?

    A.You Tube gained an outright win in last month's vote fbi
    B.Youtube cannot give reliable music service.
    C.Last month's vote rectifies You tube's wrongdoings
    D.You Tube will fight for the rights of popular artists.

    ◆Topic 3: Will petty criminals get light punishment?　　Questions for Reference:　　1. A new prosecution guideline was recently released: people convicted of petty crimes may get light punishment if they are minors, the elderly people, and people who have slightly breached the law because of poverty. What do you think of this new law?　　2. This new law is said to be a humane practice and it will help them put their lives back in order and better serve their families. Do you think it can achieve its end?　　3. Some people think that if petty crimes are not punished in a timely way, more serious consequences will follow. What do you think of this argument?

    正确答案： 【参考答案】
    My name is…My registration number is…My topic is: Will petty criminals get light punishment?
    A new prosecution guideline was recently released. It says that if the petty criminals are minors, old or very poor, they may get light punishment. The public hold different attitudes towards this guideline.
    Some people think that the regulation violates the principle that “everyone is equal before the law”. It also breaches the legal principle that citizens’ property is inviolable. But more people, me included, think that the new guideline represents the combination of leniency and severity, and it helps to promote social harmony. Although China is now richer than before, the gap between the rich and the poor is widening. Therefore, social conflicts may arise due to the widening of such gaps and there is the possibility for those who lack basic social security to violate laws for survival. As a way to tackle these problems, the judicial system surely needs to do something for the disadvantaged group. The stipulation that people who have committed a small crime because of poverty will be exempted from prosecution is actually a kind of protection to the helpless from a legal perspective.
    Furthermore, we all know that the objective of the judicial system is to prevent crimes rather than to punish wrongdoers. If one is severely punished because he steals bread for survival, the punishment may damage his whole life and lead him to commit more serious crimes. Severity does reflect justice and objectivity, but sometimes leniency can be more effective in saving the soul of an individual, because it will affect the hearts and minds of the petty criminals. It reflects tolerance and humanity and may play a more positive role in helping criminals make a fresh start.
    In a word, if the law can show both leniency and severity at the same time, it will be the most
