Section A
1. W:
I forgot to tell you that Fred called last night to borrow your sleeping bag.
M:
Oh, I saw him at the gym this morning, but he didn’t say anything. So he must have asked
somebody else.
Q:
What does the man imply?
2. W:
These summer days are getting to be more than I can take. It was even too hot to go to the
pool yesterday.
M:
Hang in there. According to the weather report we should have some relief by the end of the
week.
Q:
What does the man mean?
3. W:
Well, tonight we have Professor Brown in our studio to talk about the famous oil painting of
Queen Victoria. Good evening, Professor.
M:
Good evening, madam, my pleasure to be here tonight.
Q:
What is the woman doing?
4. M:
The plants next to the window always look brown. You wouldn’t know by looking at them
that I water them every week.
W:
Maybe they don’t like direct sunlight. I had the same problem with some of my plants. And
a little shade helps them immensely.
Q:
What does the woman imply?
5. M:
I’m really exhausted, Mary. But I don’t want to miss the Hollywood movie that comes on at
11.
W:
If I were you, I’d skip it. We both have to get up early tomorrow. And anyway, I’ve heard
it’s not as exciting as advertised.
Q:
What does the woman suggest the man do?
6. M:
Those modern sculptures over there are really weird. Don’t you think so?
W:
Well, I couldn’t stand them either at first. But now I’ve come to like modern art, particularly
those sculptures carved by Italian artists.
Q:
What does the woman mean?
7. M:
I’m really glad our club decided to raise money for the children’s hospital. And most of the
people we phoned seemed happy to contribute.
W:
Yeah!
I agree. Now that we’ve gone through all the numbers on our list, I guess we can call
it a day.
Q:
What do we learn about the speakers?
8. M:
Have you heard of Professor Smith?
I’m thinking of taking an advanced engineering course
with him. What do you think?
W:
Yeah!
You really should. He’s published dozens of books so far, one’s been recommended as
a textbook for postgraduates.
Q:
What does the woman imply?
Conversation One
W:
You’re the editor of Public Eye. What kind of topics does your program cover?
M:
Well, they are essentially domestic stories. We don’t cover international stories. We don’t cover
party politics or economics. We do issues of general social concern to our British audience.
They can be anything from the future of the health service to the way the environment is going
downhill.
W:
How do you choose the topic?
Do you choose one because it’s what the public wants to know
about or because it’s what you feel the public ought to know about?
M:
I think it’s a mixture of both. Sometimes you have a strong feeling that something is important
and you want to see it examined and you want to contribute to a public debate. Sometimes
people come to you with things they are worried about and they can be quite small things.
They can be a story about corruption in local government, something they can’t quite
understand, why it doesn’t seem to be working out properly, like they are not having their litter
collected properly or the dustbins emptied.
W:
How do you know that you’ve got a really successful program?
One that is just right for the
time?
M:
I think you get a sense about it after working in it in a number of years. You know which
stories are going to get the attention. They are going to be published just the point when the
public are concerned about that.
9. Q:
What kind of topics does Public Eye cover?
10. Q:
How does Public Eye choose its topics?
11. Q:
What factor plays an important role in running a successful program?
Conversation Two
W:
Hi, Professor Smith. I hear you’ve written a book titled Visions.
M:
Yes. It explains how science will revolutionize the 21st century.
W:
Could I ask you some questions concerning the book?
M:
Sure.
W:
Are you optimistic about the future?
M:
Generally, yeah. If we go back to the year of 1900, most Americans didn’t live beyond the age
of 50. Since then, we’ve had improvements in health care and technology. There is no reason
why these won’t continue far into the 21st century.
W:
Are we ready for the changes that will come?
M:
Changes are already happening. The future is here now. We have DNA, microchips, the
Internet. Some people’s reaction is to say, we are too old; we don’t understand new
technology. My reaction is to say, we must educate people to use new technology now.
W:
Is world population going to be a big problem?
M:
Yes, and no. I think that world population will stop increasing as we all get richer. If you are a
part of the middle-class, you don’t want or need 12 children.
W:
Will there be a world government?
M:
Very probably. We will have to manage the world and its resources on a global level because
countries alone are too small.
W:
Will we have control of everything?
M:
I think we’ll learn to control the weather, volcanoes and earthquakes. Illness won’t exist. We’ll
grow new livers, kidneys, hearts, and lungs like spare parts for a car. People will live to about
130 or 150.For 2000 years, we have tried to understand our environment. Now we’ll begin to
control it.
12. Q:
What does Professor Smith say about most Americans around the year of 1900?
13. Q:
What does Professor Smith advise we do?
14. Q:
When will the world population stop growing according to Professor Smith?
15. Q:
What does Professor Smith think human beings will be able to do?
Section B
Passage One
Getting behind the wheel of a car can be an exciting new step in a teen’s life. But along with
that excitement comes a new responsibility—understanding the need for common sense and
maturity to avoid accidents. In an effort to spread awareness to teens across the nation, the All-
State Foundation sponsored a Keep-the-Drive Summit at Sunset Station on January 23rd. Students
from Kennedy and Alamo Heights High schools participated in the summit which was held here
for the first time.
The goal of the year-long effort is to educate teens on the rules of safe driving and the severe
consequences that can result if those rules are not followed, and then have them communicate that
information to their peers. The students watched videos that told them about the numbers of
teenage driving injuries and deaths. They listen to the videos as students from other cities share
their stories of how their reckless driving affected not only their lives but also those of their
passengers. “We are trying to create awareness in high schools across the country,” said
Westerman, an All-State representative, “we focus on changing how teens think behind the
wheel.”
According to the presentation, more teens die in automobile crashes in the United States each
year than from drugs, violence, smoking and suicide. An average of 16 teens die every day in
motor vehicle crashes and nearly forty percent of those are caused by speeding. Texas is the state
with the most teen driving deaths according to the presentation. Students agreed that the statistics
were amazing and made them think twice about how they drive.
16. Q:
For what purpose did the All-State Foundation sponsor the Keep-the-Drive Summit?
17. Q:
What causes the greatest number of deaths among American teens according to the
presentation?
18. Q:
What can we conclude about the Keep-the-Drive Summit?
Passage Two
Dr. Allen Hersh designs smells for businesses. He says that it doesn’t take a whole lot of
smell to affect you. Store owners can lure you to the candy aisle, even if you don’t realize you are
smelling candy.
This idea scares a lot of people. Groups that protect the rights of shoppers are upset. They say
the stores are using a kind of brainwashing which they call “smell-washing”. “It’s pretty
dishonest,” says Mark Silbergeld. He runs an organization that checks out products for consumers.
The scientists hired to design the scents disagree. “There’s soft background music. There’s special
lighting. There’re all sorts of bells being used,” says Dr. Hersh, “why not smells?
” “One reason
why not,” says Silbergeld, “is that some people are allergic to certain scents pumped into products
or stores.”
But there is a whole other side to this debate, “Do the smells really work?
” So far, there is
little proof one way or the other. But Dr. Hersh has run some interesting experiments. In one of
Hersh’s experiments, 31 volunteers were led into a shoe store that smells slightly like flowers.
Later, another group shopped in the same store, but with no flower odor. Dr. Hersh found that 84%
of the shoppers were more likely to buy the shoes in the flower-scented room, but Hersh found out
something even stranger. “Whether the volunteers like the flower scent or not didn’t matter,”
Hersh says, “Some reported that they hated the smell, but they still were more likely to buy the
shoes in the scented room.”
19. Q:
Why are some people against the use of smells to attract customers?
20. Q:
What is Dr. Hersh’s attitude to the use of smells for business?
21. Q:
What did Hersh’s experiment show?
Passage Three
This is Ray McCarthy with the news. Reports are coming in of a major train crash in Japan. A
passenger train carrying hundreds of workers home from the center of Tokyo is reported to have
hit an oncoming goods train. Both were traveling at high speed. Figures are not yet available but it
is believed that the death toll could be as high as 300, with hundreds more injured. Emergency and
rescue services rushed to the scene. But our reporter says it will take days to clear the track and to
establish the numbers of the dead and injured. There was a similar accident on the same stretch of
track four years ago.
There was another bomb scare in a large London store last night during late night shopping.
Following a telephone call to the police from an anonymous caller, hundreds of sho
