Passage 1

In many ways ours is a world without boundaries.Being a citizen of a particular nation is almost as much as being a resident of a particular town or province.Boundaries between countries are fading.People are free to move from one country to another due to the relaxation of immigration laws in the last century.Nowadays many countries have fairly simple requirements for obtaining citizenship and voting rights.In Europe, for example, the European Union’s membership has grown to 27countires.It has developed a common body of laws, common policies and practices, and a great deal of cooperation among its members.The adoption of the single currency, the euro, by 16 of its 27 member countries and the circulation of euro cash in January 2002 have enabled citizens in these countries to move about even more freely.In addition, all of the major organized religions, including Christianity, Judaism, Buddhism, Hinduism, and Islam, are alive and well, but less clearly and exclusively identified with specific cultures and geographic regions.People everywhere feel free to convert to other religions, and many people identify themselves with more than one religion.Since 1995, which is called the Year of the Internet, cyberspace has become a rich and realistic realm of experience.Communications among people among the world have never been so easy and so fast.The world in cyberspace is truly without boundaries.Questions 26 to 28 are based on the passage you’ve just heard.26.What is the passage mainly about? 27.How many members did the European Union have when this passage was written? 28.What can you learn from the passage?

Passage 2

Twenty years ago when i studied in New York, i began studying how people became millionaires.Surveying residents of stylish neighborhoods across the country, i discovered something very odd.Quite a lot who live in expensive homes and drive luxury cars don’t have much wealth.They may earn a fair amount of money, but they spend it all.Then i discovered something much odder: many who have a great deal of wealth don’t live in stylish neighborhoods.They don’t drive luxury cars.In one large metropolitan area i surveyed, fewer than half the millionaires lived in high-rent districts.That small insight changed my life.It led me out of an academic career, and inspired me to write.I wrote three books on affluence in two years.And it made me an adviser to corporations that sell products to individuals with high net wealth.What most people don’t realize is that wealth isn’t the same as income.If you made $1 million a year and spend $1 million, you’re not getting wealthier, you’re just living high.So if you ask me what is wealth, I can say wealth is what you accumulate, not what you spend.Question 29 to 31 are based on the passage you’ve just heard.29.What did the speaker do originally? 30.Who most likely live in expensive houses according to the passage? 31.What can we learn from the passage?

Passage 3

When it comes to leisure activities, Americans aren’t quite the fun-seekers they’ve been supposed to be.For one out of five, weekends and vacations are consumed by such drudgeries as house-cleaning, yard-working and cooking;only one-third of them enjoy the luxury of relaxing in the sun, going camping, playing sports, or simply relaxing.These are among the conclusions reached by a recent poll in which more than 1,120 employed Americans were asked how they occupy themselves on days they are not at work.According to the poll, older people, the rich, and the well-educated are most apt to spend their spare time doing the things they “want to do” rather than those they “have to do”.Overall, high-salaried people were more active then those with lower incomes---they reported watching less television and were more likely to engage in social and cultural activities.Furthermore, those with college degrees were about twice as likely as those with no more than a high school education to spend time playing sports(42% compared with 23%)

On the subject of vacations, the study found that college graduates were more likely than those with only high school degrees to have vacation plans(80% versus 60%).Of those who did intend to take some time off, 46% planned a sightseeing vacation(34% in the United States, 12%abroad), 34%expected to visit friends or relatives, 22% headed for the beach or lake, and 12% intended to relax at home.People who are divorced, widowed, or separated, the survey concluded, are the least likely of any group to take a vacation---and the least likely to attach any importance to it.Questions 32 to 35 are based on the passage you’ve just heard.32.What is the passage mainly about? 33.How do most people in the US spend their vacation according to the passage? 34.Which of the following adjectives best describes the passage? 35.Which of the following can be inferred from the passage?

第三篇：大学英语(四)听说 Test 2 讲稿

Part A 1.M: Have you heard the weather report for today? W: Yes.it says that the sandstorm is going to be very bad and we‟re advised to stay indoors.Q: What is the woman talking about? 2.W: Cathy has the habit of keeping us waiting for over 30 minutes.Maybe either you or l should give her a ring before each meeting.M: That's really a nuisance, but I‟ll do it if you want.Q: What will the man probably do? 3.M: it looks like it‟ll take us about six hours‟ drive from here to Chicago.W: it would be more relaxing to take the train.But I guess we should watch our expenses.Q: What does the woman imply? 4.W: Thank goodness!You‟ve finally arrived.The presentation started ten minutes ago.And I was just beginning to panic.M: Sorry I‟m late.The traffic was extremely bad.Q: How did the woman feel when she saw the man? 5.W: The question of owning a handgun has raised a lot of discussion in the country.Dr.Brown, what's your opinion about it? M: Well, as far as I am concerned, the law on this should be changed.Q: Where does the conversation most likely take place? 6.M: I‟ve put in four evenings watching TV this week.I try to watch TV as little as possible, but it‟s so hard.W: I didn‟t watch TV very much.But recently I„m addicted to reality TV Q: What is true of the woman now? 7.M: Don‟t you think online education will replace the traditional education?

W: I doubt it.Schools are here to stay, because they are much more than just book learning.Even though more and more students are going online, l believe few of them will quit school altogether.Q: What does the woman think of conventional schools? 8.W: Congratulations, Leon!You‟re really the pride of our class now.M: Thanks.If you‟re referring to my winning the English speech contest, l don‟t think it‟s such a big deal.You know I‟ve spent two summer vacations learning English in Australia.Q: What do you learn about Leon from the conversation?

Part B Conversation 1 W: I feel so relieved.The finals are over eventually.M: Yes.But to me after all sorts of work I have to do in front of the computer, a quiet walk in the woods can be very restful and relaxing.W: You‟re right there.I feel the same.M: Look, it‟s so pretty when the leaves are changing color.I‟m glad we finally made a decision to come here.W: Changes in nature always make things so beautiful.In the spring, the green grass and leaves make everything seem new.In the autumn when the leaves turn red, yellow and brown, the woods are full of colors.No wonder autumn is also called fall.When leaves fall on the ground, they cover it like a blanket.M: You know so much about biology.Actually so far as l know, tree leaves change color because in the autumn days are shorter than in the summer, and the number of daylight hours decreases.I‟m sure this does not sound very romantic, but it's scientifically accurate.W: Scientifically accurate or not, I just enjoy looking at the trees that can have a dozen different shades of color in the sunlight.M: So long as you enjoy looking at the trees and leaves, it‟s worth spending the day here.Questions 9 to 12 are based on the conversation you‟ve just heard.9.What is the probable relationship between the two speakers? 10.What are the two speakers mainly talking about? 11.Why do tree leaves change color according to the man? 12.What can we learn from the conversation?

Conversation 2 M: Wow, it‟s hard to believe you‟re 60 years old, Emi.You sure don‟t look it.W: Thank you, you are so sweet, Brian.M: Yeah, you seem so much younger and have more energy than most people l know your age.W: I must say l don‟t feel I„m 60 either.I guess staying active is the key, and being positive, too.Besides, a healthy diet can slow down aging and maintaining an optimistic view on aging can add years.M: But I wonder what we‟ll be doing when we‟re your age.It‟s difficult to imagine what I„ll be doing ten years from now--let alone when I‟m 60.W: You? Ten years from now? That‟s easy.To my mind, you‟ll be a very successful doctor and you‟ll be running two or three large clinics.And you‟ll have already discovered a cure for some terrible disease.M: By the time I‟m 40? Not likely---but I do kind of like the idea.W: And I guess you‟ll be living in a huge mansion with your wife and kids.Hmm, I like it!M: l like the mansion idea.And of course I'll have made my first million by then, too.W: Now that‟s being positive.M: Right.We can all dream, Emi.Questions 13 to 15 are based on the conversation you‟ve just heard.13.What is the secret of staying young according to the woman? 14.What do you know about the man? 15.Which of the following is true of the Woman?

Part C Directions: Listen to the passage three times and fill in the blanks with the missing words.(10 points)Public opinion polls are regularly conducted and published in many countries.They measure not only support for political parties but also public opinion on a wide range of social and political issues.They are frequently published in major newspapers and are generally accepted as useful tools by businesses, political organizations, the mass media, the government, and academic research groups.Hundreds of public polling firms operate around the world.The Gallup Poll and Harris Poll are among the best known in the US.In business, polls are used to test consumers‟ preferences and to discover what gives a product its appeal.Responses to commercial polls help businesses in planning marketing and advertising strategies and in making changes in a product to increase its sales.In politics, polls are used to obtain information about voters‟ attitudes toward issues and candidates, to put forward candidates with winning potential, and to plan campaigns.Polling organizations have also been successful in predicting the outcome of elections.By polling voters on Election Day, it is often possible to determine the probable winner even before the voting booths close.Newspapers, magazines, radio and television are heavy users of public opinion polling information, especially political information that helps to predict election results or measure the popularity of government officials and candidates.The public‟s attitude toward various social, economic, and international issues is also considered newsworthy.Part D Passage 1 Shopping for clothes is not the same experience for a man as it is for a woman.A man goes shopping because he needs something.His purpose is settled and decided in advance.He knows what he wants, and his objective is to find it and buy it;the price is a secondary consideration.All men simply walk into a shop and ask the assistant for what they want.If the shop has it in Stock, the Salesman promptly produces it, and the business of trying it on proceeds at once.All being well, the deal can be and often is completed in less than five minutes, with hardly any chat and to everyone‟s satisfaction.How does a woman go about buying clothes? In almost every respect she does so in the opposite way.Her shopping is not often based on need.She has never fully made up her mind what She wants, and she may begin her shopping with the assumption that “l just want to have a look around.“ She will try on many dresses.She is determined to find something that everyone thinks suits her.Most women have an excellent sense of value when they buy clothes.They are always looking for the unexpected bargains.Faced with a roomful of dresses, a woman may spend hours choosing the dresses she wants to try on.It is a laborious process, but apparently an enjoyable one.Most dress shops provide chairs for the waiting husbands.Questions 26 to 29 are based on the passage you‟ve just heard.26.What does the passage mainly discuss? 27.What does a man do when he buys clothes according to the passage? 28.Which of the following most particularly interest women? 29.What can we learn from the passage?

Passage 2 Lifestyle is the way a person lives;it includes work, leisure time, hobbies, other interests, and personal philosophy.One person‟s lifestyle may be dominated by work with few social activities.Another‟s may involve hobbies, recreational activities or various friends.There is little doubt that lifestyles are changing and that these changes will have an impact on the way business operates in the years ahead.Several cases are causing lifestyle changes in some developed countries.First, there is more leisure time than ever before.The workweek is now less than forty hours, as compared with seventy hours a century ago.Some experts believe it will be twenty-five hours or less in a few decades.Several firms have adopted four-day workweeks with more hours per day.Others have cut down on the number of working hours each week.Reduced work schedules mean increased leisure time.Second, families have fewer children than before---and young couples are postponing childbirth instead of having children early in the marriage.This trend has forced many businesses to modify their competitive strategies.Gerber Products Company used to advertise “babies are our business---our only business”.Now Gerber products include infant and toddler clothing, stuffed animals and accessories such as bottles, baby powder and so on.Third people are better and more prosperous now than they were earlier.These advantages bring with them the freedom to question the current lifestyles and examine new ones.Inquiries of this nature have sometimes led to personal lifestyle changes.Today‟s youth, for example, are not only better educated but more independent and individualistic than past generations.The business world is only beginning to realize how people‟s lifestyles can influence their behavior as employees, consumers and members of society Questions 30 to 32 are based on the passage you‟ve just heard 30.What does the passage mainly tell us? 31.Which of the following can be inferred from the passage? 32.What does the speaker say about today‟s youth?

Passage 3 A movement to make US hotels smoke-free got a boost on Thursday when Woodfin Suite Hotels, owner of 18 hotels in 11 states, said its six California properties will go smoke-free starting September 1.The announcement followed a similar move by Howard Johnson International Inc., which said in June that its hotel in Williamsburg would become the chain‟s first smoke-free property.And on August 1, Apple Core Hotels turned its 80-room Comfort inn Midtown in New York City‟s Theater District into a no-smoking property.Hotel owners said they hope to make up for any lost business by winning over guests who prefer a smoke-free environment, but most admitted the move is largely experimental and traveler reaction will be closely watched before any major expansion of their programs.Apple Core Chief Operating Officer said his company decided to take the no-smoking plunge for a simple reason: demand.“it has nothing to do with public policy,” he said.“There‟s tremendous demand.People are very upset when they‟ve been promised a smoke-free room and they get a smoked-in room instead." The handful of hotel owners who have taken the no-smoking plunge say the move will also help them save money in their housekeeping departments.The process of “de-smoking” a room---eliminating all the negative effects when a room has been smoked in-typically costs about $500 per room.Smoking rooms also face higher costs associated with more frequent carpet shampooing, curtain cleaning and minor repairs for such things as cigarette burns in fabrics, according to hotel managers.Furthermore, smoking rooms often take longer to clean than their no-smoking counterparts because they must be deodorized each day.It is also a benefit to the employees who can clean the rooms much faster.And employees who don‟t smoke won‟t get the smell.Even smokers complain when they walk in and get the smell of stale smoke.Despite the benefit of going smoke-free, however, many hotels may be reluctant to completely do away with smoking rooms in the near future.It will be more the personal preference of the owner doing it, whereas the public company has to be more careful because it limits the demand.Questions 33 to 35 are based on the passage you‟ve just heard.33.What is the passage mainly about? 34.What do we know about Woodfin Suite Hotels? 35.What is the main reason why some owners want to ban smoking in their hotels.

随着20世纪90年代世界经济的再次反弹，年轻人在时尚方面变得更为大胆。
