Section A

Conversation One

M: Hello Angela, I was expecting you. Welcome to the university. Take a seat.

W: Thanks.

M: Now, as you know we held the introductory session yesterday...so I'm going to run through the main points for you again. Just let me see... OK, so you are going on to do a Master's degree?

W: [1]Yes, that's right, I already have a first degree in Economics, so my Master's degree will be in Business Studies and Marketing.

M: Well, I'm sure this preparation course will help you with that! So, let me tell you something about it. Basically, [2]the course is divided into two main components: Academic Writing and Study Skills—both nine hours per week, and in addition you will get two hours of Social English.

W: Oh, that sounds like a lot of hours. I wasn't expecting as many as that! Are there lessons every day?

M: Yes, [3]the Academic Writing classes are in the mornings and the Study Skills sessions are in the afternoons—but not every afternoon, Wednesday is free. And you are free at the weekends, of course.

W: And the Social English?

M: [3]That's in the mornings too—let me give you your timetable and then you will be clear about when your classes are and who will be teaching you.

W: Thanks. Are there a lot of students on this course?

M: Oh, about 35—24 different nationalities—and there are 3 different groups. These groups are divided according to level. Anyway, to get back to the course, [4]the writing classes will focus on academic writing and grammar and you will have to do a final piece of writing at the end of the course.

W: What? You mean like a dissertation, or a long essay?

M: Well, [4]more of a project report, really. So it doesn't have to be too long—usually about 2,000 words, presenting findings from some research you will be expected to do.

1．In which field is Angela going to further her studies?

2．What does the preparation course consist of?

3．When will Angela have classes?

4．For which course will Angela write a project report?

Conversation Two

W: Hmm, hi.

M: Hi, I am going door to door tonight to tell people about the Student Action Union. Do you have a few minutes?

W: Sure. [5]You know, I think I read something in the newspaper last week.

M: Yeah, there was an article about us since the last issue. [6]See, we are trying to protect and conserve some of the open spaces on campus.

W: That's right. You are the group that's opposing the extension of the parking lot next to Smith Hall, right?

M: That's us. We just feel it is important to save some of the natural beauty of the campus. Some of those trees are hundreds of years old.

W: It is a pretty spot.

M: Then you understand how we feel. We are organizing a rally on Thursday afternoon to get the administration to reconsider the parking lot plan.

W: [7]Well, I have a class on Thursday afternoon.

M: But maybe you could sign this petition. We're going to submit it to the administration to demonstrate how the students feel about this.

W: [8]Sure, let me get a pen and I'll sign it.

M: I have a pen right here. And let me leave you this pamphlet about the Student Action Union. Maybe you could come to some of our meetings. We get together once a month.

W: Yeah, I'd like to know more about your group. Let me know when the next meeting is and I'll try to be there.

【解析】男士得知女士去不了集会后，请女士在请愿书上签名，女士同意了，故选D。

Section B

Passage One

【听力原文】

Good morning, everyone. Community service is an important component of education here at our university. [9]We encourage all students to volunteer for at least one community activity before they graduate. A new community program called “One on One”helps elementary students who've fallen behind. You education majors might be especially interested in it, because it offers the opportunity to do some teaching—that is tutoring in Math and English. You'll have to volunteer two hours a week for one semester. You can choose to help a child with Math, English or both. Half-hour lessons are fine, so you could do a half hour of each subject two days a week. [10]Professor Dodge will act as a mentor to the tutors. He'll be available to help you with lesson plans or to offer suggestions for activities. He has office hours every Tuesday and Thursday afternoon. You can sign up for the program with him and begin the tutoring next week. I'm sure you'll enjoy this community service and you'll gain valuable experience at the same time. It looks good on your resume too, showing that you have experience with children and that you care about your community. [11]If you'd like to sign up or if you have any questions, stop by Professor Dodge's office this week.

9．What is the purpose of the talk?

10．What does Professor Dodge do?

11．What should students interested in the tutorials do?

Passage Two

【听力原文】

Located at the NASA research center in Iowa，there is a 5000 gallon container of water. And inside the tank is an underwater treadwheel designed by Davan Newman, an aerospace engineer. For four years, Newman observed divers as they simulated walking on the moon and on Mars on her underwater moving belt. She wanted to discover how the gravity of the moon and of Mars would affect human movement. [12]To do this, Newman attached weights to the divers and then lowered them into the tank and onto the treadwheel. These weights were carefully adjusted so that the divers could experience underwater the gravity of the moon and of Mars as they walked on the treadwheel. [13]Newman concluded that walking on Mars will probably be easier than walking on the moon. The moon has less gravity than Mars does. So at lunar gravity the divers struggled to keep their balance and walked awkwardly. But at Martian gravity, the divers had greater traction and stability and could easily adjust to a pace of 1.5 miles per hour. [14]As Newman gradually increased the speed of the treadwheel, the divers took longer, graceful strides until they comfortably settled into an even quicker pace. Newman also noted that at Martian gravity, the divers needed less oxygen. The data Newman collected will help in the future design of Martian spacesuits. [15]Compare to lunar spacesuits, Martian spacesuits will require smaller air tanks. And to allow for freer movement, the elbow and knee areas of the spacesuits will also be altered.

12．What did Newman change so that the divers could experience different gravity levels?

13．Why will Martian spacesuits be designed differently from lunar spacesuits?

14．What happened to the divers at Martian gravity when the speed of the treadwheel was increased?

15．What is one way that the design of Martian spacesuits will differ from lunar spacesuits?

【整体预测】

快速浏览本部分所有选项，由其中的关键词walking on Mars、walking on the Moon、Martian spacesuits等可大致推断，录音内容很可能与太空活动及太空服有关，因此需要重点关注相关内容。

12．C

【解题思路】

1．三项提到了水（water）或潜水员（diver），本题可能跟水有关。

2．四项各表示一个因素。

结论：本题考查与水有关的一个因素。

【解析】录音开头提到了一个水下踏车，纽曼用它来观察模仿在月球和火星行走的潜水员。纽曼想发现月球和火星的引力如何影响人类行动。当潜水员在水下踏车上行走的时候，她通过调整系在潜水员身上的重量来使其感受月球和火星的引力，因此答案为C。

13．A

【解题思路】四项都有关月球和火星上的不同，须重点听清相关部分。

【解析】纽曼通过实验得出结论：在火星上行走可能比在月球上行走容易，因此答案为A。

14．D

【解题思路】四个选项都以they开头，且从选项看they很可能指前面提到的divers，每个选项分别描述的是一种实验结果。

【解析】当纽曼逐渐提高踏车的速度时，潜水员步伐更大，姿势更优美，直至他们轻易地适应更快的行走速率，因此答案为D。

15．C

【解题思路】四个选项分别表示火星服的某项特点，听录音时重点抓住Martian spacesuits。

【解析】录音最后提到火星服的特点：与月球服相比，火星服只需要体积更小的氧气罐，而且为了更自由的活动，太空服的肘部和膝部也将改变，这意味着火星服会更具灵活性，适合活动，因此答案为C。

Section C

Recording One

【听力原文】

Moderator:

Hello, Ladies and Gentleman. I am very pleased to introduce our keynote speaker today, Dr. David Henry. [16]Dr. Henry, the lead researcher from Birmingham University, has published a great many essays and works concerning the functions of the brain. Dr. Henry, please!

Dr. Henry:

Thank you for the introduction. Today, I'd like to talk about a discovery about our brain, that is, remembering makes us forget. Members of my research team watched the volunteers remember one memory which in turn caused them to forget another.

In the experiments we were interested in how the brain creates forgetting. And the challenge was that it's been quite hard to study forgetting because you can't really tell. So what you need to find is something in the brain that tells us what exactly a subject or participant is remembering at a given moment. [17]So we developed a method that actually allowed us to track individual memories in the brain. We could directly watch the brain while it forgets. And that was quite exciting for us.

[18]In our experiment, we used images which are all like famous people's faces or well-known places around the world or everyday objects, because they are quite well-known to our subjects already. So they are easier to remember in the first place. But also and probably more importantly we found that these pictures elicit quite a distinct signature in the brain. So we can actually tell just based on a participant's brain activity.

You may ask what we have found when we looked at those signatures. Well, they told us when there were words that triggered a memory of two pictures at the same time, the more often we asked participants to only remember one of these pictures, the more we saw the brain picture of that or the brain pattern representing that picture coming up in the brain, but also the more the competing or irrelevant pictures were suppressed by the brain. And that suppression ultimately led people to forget those memories at a later point. So the basic phenomenon which always surprises people that namely that remembering causes forgetting has been known for quite a while. And it's been published in the 1990s. [19]But the new thing about our study is really that we can actually watch the mechanism behind it. So we can watch the brain while it suppresses memories that it doesn't need any more.

16．What does the introduction say about Dr. David Henry's essays and works?

17．What was the function of the method the researchers developed?

18．Why did researchers use images of familiar things in the experiment?

19．What can we learn from the research conducted by Dr. Henry's team?

【整体预测】

快速浏览本部分各题的所有选项，选项中多次出现了memories，讲座内容应该与人的记忆有关。此外，根据participants、volunteers和subjects可推断文中涉及了相关的实验。由此可知讲座介绍了与人类记忆有关的研究。

16．C

【解题思路】四项均以they开头，且均为一般现在时的描述性句子。本题考查的内容应该是关于主语they的相关情况，听录音时应首先弄清they的指代对象，进而将重点放四项的关键信息上（habits affect our behaviour, issues facing office workers, functions of the brain, how memories are developed）。

【解析】讲座开头部分提到亨利博士是伯明翰大学的首席研究员，出版过众多有关大脑机能的论文和著作，因此可以得出C项为正确答案。A、B两项文中未提及，故排除。讲座内容虽然与记忆有关，但并未提到亨利博士的论文和著作揭示了记忆是如何产生的，故D项应排除。

17．A

【解题思路】四项均以it开头，且均为一般过去时的描述性句子。本题考查的内容应该是关于主语it的相关情况，听录音时应首先听清it的指代对象，进而将重点放四项的关键信息上（track participants' memories, provided exciting images, stimulated volunteers' memories, caused subjects to forget their memories）。

【解析】讲座中先提到了研究中遇到的挑战，接着提到，研究者设计了一种方法，让他们能真正追踪个人的大脑记忆。由此可知，该方法使研究人员能够追踪实验参与者的记忆，故A项为正确答案。其他三项均与讲座内容不符。

18．B

【解题思路】四项均以because开头，推断题目问的是某事的原因。要特别注意因果关系处。听音时着重先弄清they的指代对象，进而将重点放在四个选项的关键信息上（bring a special feeling, produce a desirable experimental result, stimulate participants' bold imagination, evoke sweet memories）。

【解析】讲座中提到，在实验中，研究者使用了类似名人头像、世界名胜或者日常用品的图片。接着解释了这样做的原因：首先，因为这些东西对实验对象来说已经非常熟悉，因此它们更容易被记住；其次，更重要的是这些图片能够在大脑的特定部分激发出明显的信号，因此只需通过参与者的大脑活动即可做出判断。结合四个选项，可知B项准确地概括了文意，故答案为B。其他三项文中均未提及，应排除。

19．D

【解题思路】四项均为陈述性语句，且为一般现在时，四个选项相对独立。本题应该是对文章细节的考查。听音时应注意对细节信息的提取，并将重点放在四项的关键信息上（words trigger a memory better, occurrs in an instant, brain activity is suppressed, watch how the brain suppressed memories）。

【解析】讲座的结尾部分提到，该项研究的新颖之处在于能够真切地观察到这种现象背后的机制，研究者们可以观察到大脑抑制它不需要的记忆的过程。可知答案为D。讲座中并未对言语和图片进行比较，故排除A项。讲座中提到，这种抑制最终使人们在后来逐渐淡忘那些记忆，可知遗忘并非瞬间发生的，故排除B项。当一些言语让参与者同时想到两幅图片时，研究者越提醒参与者只记住其中的一幅，就越容易看到这幅图片的脑象图或者代表这幅图的大脑模式，而其他参与竞争或不相关的图片则受到大脑的抑制，由此可以推知是在研究人员发出言语指令后，部分区域才受到大脑抑制，C项不符合文意，也应排除。

【听力原文】

Lack of access to clean water and basic sanitation is one of the most pressing problems facing the developing world today. These two interrelated requirements are fundamental to healthy lives and prosperous communities, yet nearly 783 million people worldwide do not have access to clean drinking water, and more than 2.5 billion people do not have access to safe sanitation for adequate disposal of human waste.

[20]The consequences of inadequate access to water and sanitation are tremendous—diarrhea-related illness and disease, poor quality of life, public and environmental health problems, and low economic growth, but also factors that are far harder to quantify, like dignity and security. Nearly two million people die from diarrhea each year, many of them children under the age of five, living in the developing world. As the global population continues to shift toward urban areas, the challenge of ensuring access to water and sanitation is only expected to become more complex.

India is a case in point. Although the booming economy of the past decades has lifted hundreds of millions of people out of extreme poverty, rapid urbanization and an inadequate water delivery system and sanitation infrastructure are hindering further development. [21]Thus, sanitation and clean water are the Government of India's top developmental priority.

When President Barack Obama and India's Prime Minister Narendra Modi met in Washington in early October, they signed an agreement that will help bring clean water and sanitation services to all Indians. Consequently, in early November, U.S. Agency for International Development, or USAID, Administrator Rajiv Shah announced a new financial commitment of up to $20 million to support water and sanitation efforts in India.

Shah also announced a new Urban Water, Sanitation, and Hygiene, or WASH, Knowledge Partnership with the Indian Ministry of Urban Development. [22]Under the partnership, the United States and India, in cooperation with other key partners such as the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation, will share expertise and best global practices, and demonstrate innovative models in urban water and sanitation. Shah also announced USAID support for a new multi-stakeholder union that will stimulate a nationwide movement around healthy WASH behaviors.

“Together,”said USAID Administrator Rajiv Shah, “we are working to unlock opportunity for India's most vulnerable people and pioneer solutions that will help end extreme poverty across the globe.”

20．What does the speaker say about the consequences of inadequate access to water and sanitation？

21．What do we know about India's economy from the recording?

22．What is WASH Knowledge Partnership going to do?

【整体预测】

快速浏览本部分各题的所有选项，根据environmental health problems、economic growth、shake off poverty、sanitation and clean water等可大致推断，讲话很可能与经济发展、用水和卫生设施等内容有关。此外，根据all the people in India、all Indians、water and sanitation efforts in India可推断出讲话中还涉及了印度的用水和卫生设施问题。

20．C

【解题思路】四项均以it开头，且均为描述性句子，谓语动词均为表示“引起（某种结果）”的意思。本题考查的内容应该是关于主语it的相关情况，可能考查某事产生的结果或影响。听录音时应将重点放在四项的关键信息上（suffer from diseases, two billion people die from, poor quality of life and environmental health problems, economic growth）。

【解析】讲话前半部分提到，用水和卫生设施不足所产生的影响非常巨大，接下来具体解释其影响：不但会导致与腹泻相关的疾病、较差的生活质量、公共与环境卫生问题以及较低的经济增长水平，而且会导致一些更难以衡量的问题，比如尊严和安全问题。因此可以得出C项为正确答案。文中还提到，每年有近200万人死于腹泻，其中很多都是生活在发展中国家的五岁以下的儿童，由此可排除选项A和B；D项在讲话中并未提及，也可排除。

21．D

【解题思路】四项均为一般现在时的描述性句子，表示某种结果；两项提到India；四项均出现与经济发展有关的词汇（shake off poverty, rapid urbanization, a rapid economic development）。本题考查的内容应该与印度的经济发展有关，听录音时应将重点放在每项的关键词语上（shake off poverty, rapid urbanization, embrace a rapid economic development, put the priority on sanitation and clean water）。

【解析】讲话前半部分提到，尽管过去几十年印度繁荣发展的经济已经帮助成千上万人摆脱了赤贫，但是快速城市化以及用水供应系统和卫生基础设施的不足正在阻碍该国经济的进一步发展。因此，卫生设施和清洁用水是印度政府发展议程的头等大事。由此可以得出D项为正确答案。A项为干扰选项，文中只是说繁荣发展的经济帮助成千上万印度人民摆脱了贫困，并非所有印度人。快速城市化只是阻碍印度经济发展的因素之一，但并非最大的因素，故排除B项；C项与原文内容相悖，可排除。

22．A

【解题思路】四项主语均以it开头；四项的谓语动词均为表示某种作用的词汇（will share, will help, will demonstrate, will provide），由此推断题目可能考查某种事物的作用或意义。听录音时应将重点放在每项的关键词语上（share expertise and global practices, bring clean water and sanitation services to, demonstrate innovative models, provide funds）。

【解析】讲话后半部分提到，沙阿还与印度城市开发部联合宣布将成立新的水清洁卫生（WASH）知识联盟，在联盟关系下，美国和印度，以及其他诸如比尔和梅琳达·盖茨基金会等关键联盟伙伴将一起分享有关城市供水和卫生方面的专业知识和全球最佳实践案例，并且还会展示创新模式。因此可以得出A项为正确答案。C项为干扰项，用environmental pollution替换了原文中的urban water，不符合文意，故排除。其他两项的干扰性比较强，文中确实提到B项“为全体印度人民带来清洁用水和卫生服务设施”以及D项“为印度的用水和卫生建设工作提供资金支持”的内容，但前者是美国总统和印度总理签署的一项协议的内容，后者为美国国际开发署署长所宣布的财政支援计划的内容，故均可排除。

【听力原文】

Artist Tiesheng Dai is one of the few Chinese residents remaining in the U.S. capital's Chinatown. He used to have two art galleries. But rent hikes forced him to close both of them. A sign outside the building is the only evidence they existed.

The area's housing costs have been pushed up over the years by other ethnic groups flooding in. The Chinese population has shrunk from a high of 3,000 to around 300 today. [23]Chinatown began to develop decades ago, as new immigrants moved there because most of them faced language and cultural barriers in other neighborhoods.

Tom Fong, vice chairman of the local chapter of the Chinese Consolidated Benevolent Association, says things gradually changed. “As quickly as the kids they bring over assimilate the English language, the parents actually lean on them. We don't actually need a Chinatown English speaking translator or liaison to help get us there.”Most of the current Chinese residents have low incomes and receive government subsidies. Many live in Museum Square, one of Chinatown's two affordable apartment houses. [24]But the government subsidy for this complex expires in October, and the owner plans to replace the building with modern high-rise apartments. So the residents are being forced to move out.

Dai, the artist, has lived here for almost nine years. He says the remaining residents don't want to move. “Some families with three generations are living together. Some of them have been here longer than me, for more thaon ten years. Some for 20 some years.”

If affordable housing is no longer available, the residents may not be able to stay in the Chinatown area, according to Derek Hyra, the director of American University's Metropolitan Policy Center. Hyra says without Chinese residents, the local government cannot promote Chinatown as an authentic ethnic tourist attraction. “I think that cities that are more racially tolerant and ethnically and racially diverse tend to be the places that have the most innovation. There is association between diversity and economic development.”

[25]And Tom Fong says, when it comes to retaining Chinese culture, Chinatown matters. “My hope is that my kids and their kids will still have that touchstone of Chinatown to be a Part of and come down here to perform lion dance, and to do Kong Fu and spread our culture, to retain our culture for generations to come.”

23．Why have many new immigrants moved to Chinatown over the past decades?

24．What does the house owners of Museum Square intend to do without government subsidy?

25．What kind of role does Chinatown play in Chinese culture according to Tom Fong?

【整体预测】

快速浏览本部分各题的所有选项，根据housing rent、Chinatown、Chinese culture、immigrants等可大致推断，讲话很可能与唐人街的移民或住房有关，可能还涉及中国文化。

23．B

【解题思路】四项均以they开头，且都是一般过去时的描述性句子。本题考查的内容应该是关于主语they的相关情况，听录音时将重点放在四项的关键信息上（housing costs, language and cultural barriers, Chinese culture, government subsidy）。

【解析】讲话前面部分提到，几十年前多数新移民因在其他居住区会遇到语言及文化障碍而涌入唐人街。由此可知，选项B是正确答案。

24．C

【解题思路】四项均以they开头，且都是一般现在时的描述性句子；三项含有表示计划的词汇（plan to, are going to, intend to）。本题应该考查的是they的打算，听音时要首先弄清楚they的指代对象，然后再根据题目作进一步判断。

【解析】讲话中间部分提到，政府将于十月停止对这一公寓楼群的补助，房东们则计划将其变成现代化的高层公寓。由此可知，没有政府补助，博物馆区的房主打算将房屋改建成高层公寓，故正确答案是C。其他三项文中均未提及，可排除。

25．A

【解题思路】四项均以Chinatown开头，且三项提到Chinese culture。本题考查的应该是Chinatown和Chinese culture之间的关系，听音时将重点放在四项的关键词上（preserving Chinese culture, Sino-foreign cultural exchanges, spread Chinese culture, experience Chinese culture）。

【解析】讲话后半部分提到，汤姆·方表示，当谈到维系中国文化时，唐人街举足轻重，同时又进一步指出：“我希望我的孩子和他们的孩子仍然能够拥有像唐人街这样的地标，并且成为它的一部分，来这里舞狮、练中国功夫、传播文化，将我们的文化代代相传。”由此可知，汤姆·方认为唐人街在维系中国文化方面很重要。故正确答案是A。其他三个选项本身的表述没有错误，但文中没有涉及，故排除。
