    (b) A summary of the information needed to satisfy our obligations under the money laundering legislation and

    any action that should be taken before agreeing to become tax advisers to the Saturn Ltd group. (5 marks)


    正确答案:
    (b) Before agreeing to become tax advisers to the Saturn Ltd group
    Information needed:
    – Proof of incorporation and primary business address and registered office.
    – The structure, directors and shareholders of the company.
    – The identities of those persons instructing the firm on behalf of the company and those persons that are authorised to
    do so.
    Action to take:
    – Consider whether becoming tax advisers to the Saturn Ltd group would create any threats to compliance with the
    fundamental principles of professional ethics, for example integrity and professional competence. Where such threats
    exist, we should not accept the appointment unless the threats can be reduced to an acceptable level via the
    implementation of safeguards.
    – Contact the existing tax adviser in order to ensure that there has been no action by the Saturn Ltd group that would, on
    ethical grounds, preclude us from accepting appointment.

    Passage Two

    When we see well, we do not think about our eyes very often. It is only when we cannot see perfectly that we realize how important our eyes are.

    People who are nearsighted can only see things that are very close to their eyes. Everything else is not so clear. Many people who do a lot of close work, such as writing, reading and sewing, become near sighted. Then they have to wear glasses in order to see distant (远处的) things clearly'.

    People who are nearsighted suffer from just the opposite problem. They can see things that are far away, but they have difficulty in reading a book unless they hold it at arm's length. If they want to do much reading, they must get glasses, too.

    Other people do not see clearly because their eyes are not exactly the right shape. They have what is called astigmatism (散光). This, too, can be corrected by glasses. Some people's eyes become cloudy because of cataracts (白内障). Long ago these people often became blind. Now, however, it is possible to operate on the cataracts and remove them.

    Having two good eyes is important for judging distances. Each eye sees things from a slightly different angle (角度). To prove this to yourself, look at an object out of one eye; then look at the same object out

    of the other eye. You will find the object's relation to the background (背景) and other things around it has changed. The difference between these two different eye views helps us to judge how far away an object is. People who have only one eye cannot judge distance as people with two eyes.

    40. We should take good care of our eyes ______.

    A. only when we cannot see perfectly

    B. only when we can see well

    C. even if we can see well

    D. only when we realize how important our eyes are


    正确答案:C

  • 第7题:

    Psychology tells us that many people hate to take risks. But it is good for us to take risks, especially when the risk is to achieve a desired result. In that way, we become stronger and braver.
    Our human nature should be to take risks, but some people just sit and wish they didn't have the fear to move on. This is because they failed a few times in their lives. Please step out and don't let the past hold you back from living life to the fullest. Move forward and move on! In studying the psychology of taking risks, we find that human provides us with the desire to experiment and take chances.
    Risk taking is a great advantage that allowed our ancestors to become stronger and stronger day by day. By taking risks they fought off enemies and discovered new territories. This attitude has become a part of our modem culture. Riding a roller caster is a common risk taking activity. Even each person seems to enjoy the risk although they have the understanding that it is dangerous. This psychological and biological connection creates an interesting connection between what is unsafe and what humans enjoy.
    Getting in a car each day is a risk. Getting out of bed is a risk, too. We need to take risks so that we can complete many things. Astronauts take risks when they get inside a rocket; however,the things they achieve are great. Businessmen take a risk when they buy parts of a company, however, without doing that, they could not make more money.
    We need to take risks so that we can gain something. It is impossible to move forward in life, earn money, enjoy a relationship, play a sport, or doing anything else without taking a risk. It is all part of the game. It' s one of the most important parts of life.
    What can we infer from the passage?

    A.Daily life is full of risks.
    B.The safest place has the greatest risk.
    C.People should take risks when they are young.
    D.We can always achieve our goals by taking risks.

    答案:A

    Practice 5Directions: For this part, you are allowed 30 minutes to write an essay commenting on the topic “Which Is More Important: Wealth or Health?” You can cite examples to illustrate your point. You should write at least 150 words but no more than 200 words.

    正确答案:
    【范文】
    Which Is More Important: Wealth or Health? In today’s society, many people think wealth is the symbol of success. So some people take the goal of becoming rich as their aim in life. They are crazy for making money. On the contrary, others think health is more important. In balancing the two, I have every reason to accept the latter.
    At the first place, good health implies a long life. A man in good health could live a happy life. Next, people usually turn to healthy man for help. Finally, good health brings people great wealth. While big fortune sometimes causes trouble, a man with big fortune who fears of being robbed trusts nobody. What’s more, some evil people want to cheat rich men out of money. Furthermore, many things exist around us that can’t be bought by cash, such as, friendship, love, health and etc.
    Therefore, I think good health is more important than wealth. We can do nothing without good health. If we have good health, we can do what we want.

    ◆Topic 9:Keeping Variety of Language and Culture  Questions for Reference:  1) What is the reason for losing a variety of language and culture?  2) What are the solutions to the problem of languages and culture dying?  3) What’s the most important thing we should do to save our language and cult/are from now on?

    正确答案: 【参考答案】
    Nowadays, international communication has become more and more important, people prefer to communicate in languages, such as English, Arabic and Chinese. But many of the world’s languages and culture are dying out. In my presentation I will examine the problem of languages and culture, dying and the solutions, such as writing books and increasing language population levels.
    Firstly, as the technology improves, people around the world are relying more and more on electronic devices to communicate with each other. While this trend is helping the major culture, it is having a harmful effect on the minor culture that could be swallowed up by the major culture.
    Secondly, some of the world’s languages are not being learned widely by children or used in daily commerce. In some boarding schools, children were punished for speaking their parent’s language. Despite the desires of language and culture activists, the outlook is somewhat grim.
    People already realize this problem exists and are trying to solve it. For one solution, people can record the culture and languages on books or tapes, making sure our descendants can learn or use them in the future.
    The second solution is increasing the language population levels. Governments can make some policies, like encouragement for people to learn and teach the languages facing extinction, no matter whether the language is used in daily commerce or not. By trying to keep them alive, at least they have a future as second languages.
    The important thing is to learn the elder’s tongue and culture before it’s too late. Otherwise we will lose them.

  • 第16题:

    听力原文: Money means different things to different people. We have all heard or used expressions such as, "How much money do you want for this? How much money do you make?" and "They have a lot of money." It is obvious that money does not mean the same thing in each of these expressions. In the first expression, money refers to a price; in the second, to income; and in the third, to wealth. The confusion arises because money is the standard in terms of which we value all material goods and services. For most of us, both income and wealth are considerably greater than our holdings of money. Income is the net revenue we receive for the sale of our services or of the products of our services. Wealth is the accumulation of past savings of income. Most of us hold only a small part of our wealth in the form. of money.

    24. Which is the best answer to the question "How much money do you want for this?"

    25.What is used as the standard to value all material goods and services?

    26.What may be greater than our holdings of money?

    Practice 3  You should spend about 40 minutes on this task.  Write about the following topic:  Happiness is considered very important in life. Why is it difficult to define? What factors are important in achieving happiness?  You should write at least 250 words.

    正确答案: 【参考范文】
    Throughout the history of human being, people are always pursuing happiness while nobody can give a definition nor can a consensus be achieved. Generally, happiness consists of two levels: material level and spiritual level. As far as I am concerned, spiritual happiness can bring people with greater satisfaction.
    To begin with, being happy is not a mood under certain circumstances, but a person with a certain set of attitudes. It is difficult for anyone to get what he wants without a great deal of effort. After making great and arduous effort, even if the target is achieved as expectation, there is nothing left but suffering and pain, because he amplifies the efforts rather than emphasizes the harvests. To reach the happiness they seek, however, the only thing people should do is to change their attitude toward happiness, and the way they look at the world around them.
    Moreover, happiness is not what people are born with but what people take action to get. Many people seek their unique happiness through imagination and daydreams. Obviously, everyone fantasies sometimes. But, without actions, no one can come close to finding the happiness he seeks. Happiness and bliss cannot be found merely through unrealistic envision, but must be sought through actions, through doing.
    To sum up, although we say that happiness is rooted in optimistic attitudes, it can never be achieved without any effort. It arises spontaneously from within as small goals are reached.
