Conversation One
M: Excuse me. Where's your rock music section?
W: Rock music? I'm sorry,we' re a Jazz store. We don't have any rock and roll.
M: Oh, you only have Jazz music? Nothing else?
W: That's right. We' re the only record store in London dedicated exclusively to Jazz. Actually, we' re more than just a record store. We have a cafe and library upstairs and a ticket office down the hall where you can buy tickets to all the major Jazz concerts in the city. Also, we have our own studio next door, where we produce albums for up- and- coming artists. We are committed to fostering new music talent.
M: Wow! That's so cool.I guess there's not much of a Jazz scene anymore, not like they used to be. But here you' re trying to promote this great music genre.
W: Yes, indeed. Nowadays most people like to listen to pop and rock music. Hip hop music from America is also getting more and more popular.So, as a result, there are fewer listeners of Jazz, which is a great shame because it's an incredibly rich genre. But that's not to say there isn't any good new Jazz music being made out there anymore, far from it.It's just a much smaller market today.
M: So how would you define Jazz?
W: Well, interestingly enough,there's no agreed- upon definition of Jazz. Indeed, there are many different styles of Jazz. Some have singing, but most don't. Some are electric and some aren't. Some contain live experimentation, but not always. While there's no simple definition for it, and while there are many different styles of Jazz, you simply know it when you hear it.Honestly, the only way to know what Jazz is, is listen to it yourself. As a great trumpet player, Louis Armstrong said,“ if you gotta ask, you' ll never know.”

Conversation Two
M: How did it go at the bank this morning?
W: Not well.My proposal was rejected.
M: Really? But why?
W: Bunch of reasons. For starters, they said my credit history was not good enough.
M: Do they say how you could improve that?
W: Yes. They said that after five more years of paying my mortgage, then I would become a more viable candidate for a business loan. But right now it's too risky for them to lend me money. They fear I will default on any business loan I'm given.
M: Well, that doesn't sound fair. Your business idea is amazing. Did you show them your business plan? What did they say?
W: They didn't really articulate any position regarding the actual business plan. They simply looked at my credit history and determined it was not good enough. They said the bank has strict guidelines and requirements as to who they can lend money to. And I simply don't meet their financial threshold.
M: What if you asked for a smaller amount?Maybe you could gather capital from other sources. Smaller loans from more lenders?
W: You don't get it. It doesn't matter the size of the loan I ask for, or the type of business I propose. That's all inconsequential. The first thing every bank will do is study how much money I have and how much debt I have before they decide whether or not to lend me any more money.If I want to continue ahead with this dream of owning my own business, I have no other choice but to build up my own finances. I need around 20% more in personal savings and 50% less debt. That's all there is to it.
M: I see now. Well, it's a huge pity that they rejected your request, but don't lose hope. I still think that your idea is great and that you would turn it into a phenomenal success.

Passage One
There's a lot about Leo Sanchez and his farm in Salinas, California, that seems unusual. The national average farm size is around 440 acres, but his is only one acre. The average age of farmers hover s around 58 years old, but he is just 26. And Sanchez constantly attempts to improve everything from seeding techniques out in the field to the promotion and sale of his produce online. This is evidence of an experimental approach. It's an approach not dictated by the confines of conventional, large- scale agriculture led by international corporations.While farming is often difficult for both the body and mind, Sanchez says he and many of his fellow young farmers are motivated by a desire to set a new standard for agriculture.
Many of them are employing a multitude of technologies, some new and some not so new. Recently, Sanchez bought a hand- operated tool which pulls out weeds and loosens soil. It actually dates back to at least 1701. It stands in sharp contrast to Sanchez's other gadget, a gas- powered flame weed killer invented in 1997. He simply doesn't discriminate when it comes to the newness of tools. If it works, it works. Farmers havea long history of invention, and it's no different today.Young farmers are guided by their love for agriculture and aided by their knowledge of technology. To find inexpensive and appropriately sized tools, they collaborate and innovate. Sometimes the old stuff just works better or more efficiently.
9.What do we learn about Leo Sanchez's farm?
10.What has motivated Leo Sanchez and his fellow young farmers to engage in farming?
11.Why did Leo Sanchez buy a hand- operated weeding tool?
Passage Two
Eat Grub is Britain's first new food company that breaks western food boundaries by introducing edible insects as a new source of food. And Sainsbury's is the first UK supermarket to stock the company's crunchy roasted crickets.
Sainsbury's insists that such food is no joke and could be a new sustainable source of protein. Out of curiosity, I paid a visit to Sainsbury's. As I put my hand into a packet of crickets with their tiny eyes and legs, the idea of one going in my mouth made me feel a little sick,but the first bite was a pleasant surprise, a little dry and lacking of taste. But at least a wing didn't get stuck in my throat. The roasted seasoning largely overpowered any other flavour, although there was slightly bitter aftertaste. The texture was crunchy, but smelt a little of cat food. Eat Grub also recommends the crickets as a topping for noodles, soups and salads.
The company boasts that its dried crickets contain more protein than beef, chicken, and pork, as well as minerals like iron and calcium. Unlike the production of meat, bugs do not use up large amounts of land, water or feed.And insect farming also produces far fewer greenhouse gases. However, despite 2 billion people worldwide already supplementing their diet with insects, consumer disgust remains a large barrier in many western countries. I'm not sure bugs will become a popular snack anytime soon, but they' re definitely food for thought.
12.What do we learn from the passage about the food company Eat Grub?
13.What does the speaker say about his first bite of roasted crickets?
14.What does Eat Grub say about its dried crickets?
15.What does the passage say about insect farming?

Have you ever had someone try to explain something to you a dozen times with no luck? But, then, when you see a picture, the idea finally clicks. If that sounds familiar, maybe you might consider yourself a“ visual learner”. Or if reading or listening does the trick, maybe you feel like you' re a“ verbal learner”. We call these labels“ learning styles”. But is there really a way to cat egorize different types of students? Well, it actually seems that multiple presentation formats, especially if one of them is visual, help most people learn.
When psychologists and educators test for learning styles, they' re trying to figure out whether these are inherent traits that affect how well students learn instead of just a preference. Usually they start by giving a survey to figure out what style a student favors, like visual or verbal learning. Then they try to teach the students something with a specific presentation style, like using visual aids, and do a follow- up test to see how much they learned. That way, the researchers can see if the self- identified verbal learners really learned better when the information was just spoken aloud, for example.
But, according to a 2008 review, only one study that followed this design found that students actually learned best with their preferred style. But the study had some big flaws. The researchers excluded two thirds of the original participants because they didn't seem to have any clear learning style from the survey at the beginning, and they didn't even report the actual test scores in the final paper. So it doesn't really seem like learning styles are an inherent trait that we all have. But that doesn't mean that all students will do amazingly if they just spend all their time reading from a textbook.
Instead, most people seem to learn better if they' re taught in several ways, especially if one is visual. In one study, researchers tested whether students remembered lists of words better if they heard them, saw them, or both. And everyone seemed to do better if they got to see the words in print— even the self- identified auditory learners. Their preference didn't seem to matter. Similar studies tested whether students learned basic physics and chemistry concepts better by reading plain text or viewing pictures too. And everyone did better with the help of pictures.
16.Why do psychologists and educators study learning styles?
17.What does the speaker say about one study mentioned in the 2008 review?
18.What message does the speaker want to convey about learning at the end of the talk?

Free- market capitalism hasn't free d us; it has trapped us. It's imperative for us to embrace a workplace revolution. We are unlikely to spend our last moments regretting that we didn't spend enough of our lives slaving away at work.We may instead find ourselves feeling guilty about the time we didn't spend watching our children grow, or with our loved ones, or travelling, or on the cultural leisure pursuits that bring us happiness. Unfortunately, the average full- time employee in the world works 42 hours a week— well over a third of the time we' re awake. Some of our all too precious time is being stolen. Office workers do around 2 billion hours of unpaid overtime each year, so it's extremely welcome that some government coalitions have started looking into potentially cutting the working week to four days.
The champions of free- market capitalism promised their way of life would bring us freedom, but it wasn't freedom at all. From the lack of secure, affordable housing to growing job insecurity and rising personal debt, the individual is trapped.Nine decades ago, leading economists predicted that technological advances and rising productivity would mean that we'd be working a 15- hour week by now. That target has been somewhat missed.
Here is the most malignant fret to our personal freedom, particularly as the balance of power in the workplace has been shifted so dramatically from worker to boss. A huge portion of our lives involves surrender of our freedom and personal autonomy.It's time in which we are directed by the needs and desires of others, and denied the right to make our own choices. That's bad for us. It's hardly surprising that over half a million workers suffer from work- related mental health conditions each year. All that 15.4m illion working days were lost to work- related stress last year—a jump of nearly a quarter. Yes, there are those who, far from being overworked, actually seek more hours, but a shorter working week would enable us to redistribute hours from the overworked to the underworked.
We need to look at ways of cutting the working week without slashing living standards. After all, the world's workers have already suffered the worst deduction in wages since the early 1800s. And cutting the working week would be conducive to the individual, giving millions of workers more time to spend as they see fit.
19.What do people often feel guilty about according to the speaker?
20.What did leading economists predict 90 years ago?
21.What is the result of denying workers' right to make their own choices?

Today I'm going to talk about Germany's dream airport in Berlin. The airport looks exactly like every other major modern airport in Europe, except for one big problem: more than 7 years after it was originally supposed to open, it still stands empty. Germany is known for its efficiency and refined engineering, but when it comes to its new“ ghost airport”, this reputation could not be further from the truth.Plagued by long delays, perpetual mismanagement and ever- soaring costs, the airport has become something of a joke among Germans and a source of frustration for local politicians, business leaders and residents alike. Planning for the new airport began in 1989.At the time, it became clear that the newly- reunified Berlin would need a modern airport with far greater capacity than its existing airports. The city broke ground on the new airport in 2006.
The first major sign of problems came in summer2010, when the construction corporation pushed the opening from October 2011 to June 2012. In 2012, the city planned an opening ceremony. But less than a month beforehand, inspectors found significant problems with the fire safety system and pushed the opening back again to 2013.It wasn't just the smoke system. Many other major problems subsequently emerged. More than 90 metres of cable were incorrectly installed; 4,000 doors were wrongly numbered; escalators were too short. And there was a shortage of check- in desks.
So why, with so many problems discovered, didn't the airport corporation decide to give up on the project and start over? The reason is simple. People are often hesitant to terminate a project when they' ve already invested time or resources into it, even if it might make logical sense to do so. The longer the delays continued, the more problems inspectors found. Leadership of the planning corporation has changed hands nearly as many times as the opening date has been pushed back. Initially, rather than appointing a general contractor to run the project, the corporation decided to manage it themselves despite lack of experience with an undertaking of that scale.
To compound the delays, the unused airport is resulting in massive costs. Every month it remains unopened costs between €9 and €10m. Assuming all goes well, the airport should open in October 2020. But the still empty airport stands as the biggest embarrassment to Germany's reputation for efficiency and a continuing drain on city and state resources.
22.What does the speaker say about the dream airport in Berlin?
23.Why was there a need for a new airport in Berlin?
24.Why did Berlin postpone the opening of its dream airport again and again?
25.What happens while the airport remains unused?

14.解析:題目問(wèn)的是 Eat Grub公司說(shuō)了什么關(guān)于它生產(chǎn)的蟋蟀干的信息。文章中關(guān)于 Eat Grub公司自夸其蟋蟀干的內(nèi)容在中間靠后的部分,原文說(shuō):該公司自夸說(shuō)其蟋蟀干的蛋白質(zhì)含量比牛肉、雞肉和豬肉還要高,而且其礦物質(zhì)含量,諸如鐵和鈣也更高。選項(xiàng)C正是對(duì)這部分內(nèi)容的總結(jié)概括,為正確選項(xiàng)。選項(xiàng)A、B原文中并未提到, 故均排除。原文最后一句提到:“我”不敢肯定昆蟲(chóng)很快會(huì)在某個(gè)時(shí)候成為一種流行的零食, 可見(jiàn)選項(xiàng)D與原文內(nèi)容相反, 故排除。
15.解析:題目就昆蟲(chóng)養(yǎng)殖進(jìn)行提問(wèn)。文章結(jié)尾部分提及昆蟲(chóng)養(yǎng)殖產(chǎn)生的溫室氣體也少得多,也就是說(shuō)昆蟲(chóng)養(yǎng)殖是非常環(huán)保的,因此選項(xiàng)A符合昆蟲(chóng)養(yǎng)殖的特點(diǎn)介紹,為正確選項(xiàng)。選項(xiàng)C、D原文并未提到,因此可排除。選項(xiàng)B與原文內(nèi)容正好相反,原文說(shuō),在許多西方國(guó)家,消費(fèi)者的反感仍然是一大障礙,這說(shuō)明昆蟲(chóng)養(yǎng)殖前途未卜,故排除選項(xiàng)B。
16.解析:本題就心理學(xué)家和教育家研究學(xué)習(xí)風(fēng)格的原因進(jìn)行提問(wèn)。錄音前半部分中,講話者提到:“當(dāng)心理學(xué)家和教育家測(cè)試學(xué)習(xí)風(fēng)格時(shí),他們?cè)噲D弄清楚這些學(xué)習(xí)風(fēng)格是否是影響學(xué)生學(xué)習(xí)效果的天生的特質(zhì),而不只是一種學(xué)習(xí)偏好?!币虼?,選項(xiàng)D的說(shuō)法與此相符,為正確答案,其中該項(xiàng)的 inherent traits是原文再現(xiàn),if對(duì)應(yīng)原文中的whether。其余三項(xiàng)都不是心理學(xué)家和教育家研究學(xué)習(xí)風(fēng)格的原因,故均可排除。
17.解析:本題就2008年報(bào)告中提到的一項(xiàng)研究進(jìn)行提問(wèn)。在錄音的中間部分,講話者提到了一份2008年的報(bào)告,該報(bào)告中提到了一項(xiàng)研究。這項(xiàng)研究發(fā)現(xiàn),學(xué)生們用他們更喜歡的學(xué)習(xí)風(fēng)格學(xué)習(xí)時(shí)實(shí)際上會(huì)學(xué)得最好。但講話者接著又說(shuō):“但這項(xiàng)研究有一些大的缺陷?!苯酉聛?lái)講話者具體介紹了這些缺陷。很明顯, 答案選A, defective對(duì)應(yīng)原文中的 had some big flaws。選項(xiàng)B和D講話中沒(méi)有提及, 均可排除; 報(bào)告中并沒(méi)有說(shuō)這項(xiàng)研究的設(shè)計(jì)方案是原創(chuàng)的,故排除選項(xiàng)C。
18.解析:本題就講話者在最后提到的有關(guān)學(xué)習(xí)的內(nèi)容進(jìn)行提問(wèn)。在講話最后,講話者明顯肯定了視覺(jué)展示方法的作用, 并提到了一項(xiàng)研究:“在一項(xiàng)研究中,研究人員測(cè)試了如果讓學(xué)生聽(tīng)單詞表、看單詞表或者既聽(tīng)又看單詞表,他們是否能更好地記住單詞。如果學(xué)生看了打印出來(lái)的單詞,每個(gè)人似乎都能更好地記住單詞——即使是那些自我認(rèn)定為“聽(tīng)覺(jué)型學(xué)習(xí)者”的學(xué)生。”由此可知,選項(xiàng)B的說(shuō)法是對(duì)原文的概括總結(jié)。原文中的 everyone seemed to do better對(duì)應(yīng)選項(xiàng)中的 are helpful to all types of learners。選項(xiàng)A是強(qiáng)干擾項(xiàng),在講話的最后,講話者重點(diǎn)提及了視覺(jué)教具的重要性,并沒(méi)有把聽(tīng)覺(jué)教具與視覺(jué)教具的重要性進(jìn)行對(duì)比,故排除選項(xiàng)A。講話者最后提到,類似的研究也測(cè)試了通過(guò)閱讀純文本或觀看圖片,學(xué)生能否把基礎(chǔ)物理和化學(xué)概念學(xué)得更好。借助圖片,每個(gè)學(xué)生都能學(xué)得更好。選項(xiàng)C的說(shuō)法與此相反,故排除;而且,研究只是表明,借助視覺(jué)教具,學(xué)生能把科學(xué)概念學(xué)得更好,而不是說(shuō)沒(méi)有視覺(jué)教具,科學(xué)概念很難理解,故也排除選項(xiàng)D。
19.解析:本題就人們經(jīng)常感到內(nèi)疚的事情進(jìn)行提問(wèn)。在講話開(kāi)頭部分,講話者對(duì)自由市場(chǎng)資本主義進(jìn)行了批判,指出它束縛住了我們。講話者說(shuō),我們不太可能在生命的最后時(shí)刻后悔自己沒(méi)有努力工作,而是會(huì)“因?yàn)闆](méi)有把時(shí)間花在看著孩子長(zhǎng)大、陪伴我們愛(ài)的人、旅游或者能給我們帶來(lái)快樂(lè)的文化休閑活動(dòng)上而感到內(nèi)疚”,由此可知,選項(xiàng)D的表述與原文相符,為正確答案。講話者說(shuō)接受職場(chǎng)革命勢(shì)在必行,但沒(méi)有說(shuō)人們因不能在職場(chǎng)革命中起作用而內(nèi)疚,故排除選項(xiàng)A。選項(xiàng)B的說(shuō)法本身沒(méi)有問(wèn)題, 但不是人們感到內(nèi)疚的原因,故排除。講話者沒(méi)有提到選項(xiàng)C,故也排除。
20.解析:本題就主流經(jīng)濟(jì)學(xué)家90年前預(yù)測(cè)的內(nèi)容進(jìn)行提問(wèn)。講話者在錄音中間部分提到:“90年前,一些主流經(jīng)濟(jì)學(xué)家們預(yù)測(cè),到現(xiàn)在,技術(shù)進(jìn)步和不斷提高的生產(chǎn)力將意味著我們每周只需要工作15個(gè)小時(shí)?!币虼?,選項(xiàng)A與原文表述相符,為正確答案。講話中指出,職場(chǎng)中的權(quán)力平衡已經(jīng)很明顯地從員工轉(zhuǎn)移到老板身上,但這不是經(jīng)濟(jì)學(xué)家預(yù)測(cè)的內(nèi)容,故排除選項(xiàng)B。經(jīng)濟(jì)學(xué)家們預(yù)測(cè),技術(shù)進(jìn)步會(huì)縮短人們的周工作時(shí)間,而不是會(huì)創(chuàng)造很多新的工作,故排除選項(xiàng)C。選項(xiàng)D講話中沒(méi)有提及,故也可排除。
21.解析:本題就不讓員工自己做選擇的后果進(jìn)行提問(wèn)。講話者提到:“我們的時(shí)間由其他人的需求和意愿所控制,我們被剝奪了自主選擇的權(quán)利。這對(duì)我們來(lái)說(shuō)是不利的。每年有超過(guò)50萬(wàn)的員工面臨與工作相關(guān)的心理健康問(wèn)題,這不足為奇?!币簿褪钦f(shuō),剝奪員工自主選擇權(quán)的后果就是,他們會(huì)遇到嚴(yán)重的心理健康問(wèn)題,故答案選C。講話中沒(méi)有提到員工失去自尊、創(chuàng)造力被剝奪的問(wèn)題,故排除選項(xiàng)A和B。講話者在最后提到了重新分配工作時(shí)間,但工作時(shí)長(zhǎng)分配不公不是員工自主選擇權(quán)被剝奪的后果, 故排除選項(xiàng)D。
22.解析:本題問(wèn)關(guān)于柏林的夢(mèng)想機(jī)場(chǎng),講話者說(shuō)了什么。講話者在一開(kāi)始提到,柏林的夢(mèng)想機(jī)場(chǎng)依然處于空置狀態(tài)。由于長(zhǎng)期的(開(kāi)放)延誤、持續(xù)的管理不善和不斷飆升的成本,該機(jī)場(chǎng)成為德國(guó)人的笑談對(duì)象,并給當(dāng)?shù)卣?、商業(yè)領(lǐng)袖,同樣還有當(dāng)?shù)鼐用駧?lái)挫敗感。所以選項(xiàng)C的說(shuō)法與講話內(nèi)容一致,故為正確答案。講話中雖然提到,機(jī)場(chǎng)一直延遲開(kāi)放的一個(gè)原因便是管理不善,但是并沒(méi)有說(shuō)它是德國(guó)歷史上管理最差的機(jī)場(chǎng),選項(xiàng)A推理過(guò)度,可排除。講話者提到,德國(guó)一向以高效聞名,而這座“幽靈機(jī)場(chǎng)”一直推遲開(kāi)放日期,可以說(shuō)它是德國(guó)效率的反面典型,而非典型象征,故選項(xiàng)D正反混淆。講話者并未提及選項(xiàng)B, 可排除。
23.解析:本題問(wèn)柏林當(dāng)時(shí)為何需要一座新機(jī)場(chǎng)。講話者在講話中間部分提到,新機(jī)場(chǎng)的規(guī)劃始于1989年。當(dāng)時(shí),剛統(tǒng)一的柏林明顯需要一個(gè)容量遠(yuǎn)遠(yuǎn)超過(guò)其現(xiàn)有機(jī)場(chǎng)的現(xiàn)代化機(jī)場(chǎng)。即柏林當(dāng)時(shí)剛剛統(tǒng)一,急需一座容量極大的機(jī)場(chǎng),選項(xiàng)B的說(shuō)法符合講話內(nèi)容,故為正確答案。其余三項(xiàng)講話者并未提及,均可排除。
24.解析:本題問(wèn)柏林一再推遲開(kāi)放夢(mèng)想機(jī)場(chǎng)的原因。講話者在講話中間提到,檢查員發(fā)現(xiàn)柏林夢(mèng)想機(jī)場(chǎng)的消防安全系統(tǒng)存在重大問(wèn)題,后來(lái)許多其他重大問(wèn)題也隨后出現(xiàn)。即柏林一再推遲夢(mèng)想機(jī)場(chǎng)的開(kāi)放日期是因?yàn)楦鞣N各樣的問(wèn)題不斷出現(xiàn),選項(xiàng)D的說(shuō)法與講話內(nèi)容一致,故為正確答案。講話中提到,最初,規(guī)劃公司決定自己管理項(xiàng)目,而它的領(lǐng)導(dǎo)層的更換次數(shù)幾乎都趕得上開(kāi)放日期被推遲的次數(shù)了,而非市政府的領(lǐng)導(dǎo)一直在更換,選項(xiàng)A偷換概念。其余兩項(xiàng)講話并未提及,可排除。
25.解析:本題問(wèn)機(jī)場(chǎng)不投入使用的后果。講話者在結(jié)尾部分提到,讓延遲開(kāi)放更嚴(yán)重的是,未投入使用的機(jī)場(chǎng)正在造成巨額花費(fèi)。每個(gè)月,未開(kāi)放的機(jī)場(chǎng)耗費(fèi)的成本達(dá)900萬(wàn)至1000萬(wàn)歐元。所以選項(xiàng)C的說(shuō)法與原文相符,故為正確答案。講話者并未提及其余三項(xiàng),均可排除。
