M: No, but I know it is written by Debra Fine, a nationally recognised communication expert. W: It is really worth reading.

I really like it. M: How big is it? W: It’s one big room, but it has a bathroom and a small kitchen, too. M: How far is it from the office? W: It’s only about 10 minutes. M: 10 minutes by bus or by car? W: On foot. I walked to the office this morning. I was 10 minutes early. M: You are lucky. I was 10 minutes late. W: What happened? M: All the buses came late. W: Was Kate angry? M: No, she was late, too. W: What happened to her? M: She took the train, and it was late, too. W: Oh, you really are lucky after all. But what are you going to do tomorrow?

Can you give me some advice? M: Sit here. Take it easy. W: I spend most of my time studying. I hardly ever talk to my classmates. M: I see. Your problem is a common one among middle school students. First of all, believe in yourself. You just lack self-confidence. The first thing you must do is to smile at your classmates. Your smile will show that you are friendly to them. W: But I do want to talk. I just don’t know what to talk about or how to begin a conversation. M: You may try talking with a student who is as shy as you or who shares the same interests as you. You can ask a classmate about your study, and you can also talk about the hobbies you have in common with him or her. If a classmate is in trouble in life or study, you should be ready to help. Once you have more confidence, you can make as many friends as you can. W: I’m feeling much better now. Thank you so much. 听第10段材料，回答第17至20题。 W: Hey, Harry. You look busy. What’s that you are reading? M: Oh, hi, Jane. I’m studying for my driver’s license. I just hope I can remember all these traffic laws. W: I’m sure you will pass the tests, especially since you can miss a few questions and still pass. Just don’t forget to take your glasses with you so you won’t fail the vision test. M: Yeah, I know. I think the written test will be okay, but I’m really worried about the road test. I didn’t take driver’s education and I’m nervous behind the wheel. My brother failed his test the first time because he forgot to signal a left turn. He also made a mistake when he had to park between two other cars. W: It sounds like he just got nervous. So when’s your appointment at the Department of Motor Vehicles? M: Next Tuesday. But I might just go in earlier and take the test as a walk-in. W: Can’t wait, huh? Well, I will let you get back to studying. Good luck! M: Thanks. See you around.

M: J. R. R. Tolkien, a professor in University of Oxford. W: When was it written? M: It was written between 1937 and 1949, much of it during the Second World War. 听第7段材料，回答第8至10 题。 M: What are the characteristics of fantasy literature? W: Magic, above all, is what defines fantasy characteristics. M: Where do the themes of fantasy literature come from? W: They are generally from the unknown, the unknowable, and the mysterious. M: Why do you think fantasy literature is so attractive? W: It mixes magic well with a classic story of good and evil or the innocence of childhood and with these ingredients you’ll find a perfect fantasy story in your hands. 听第8段材料，回答第11至13题。 W: Does much of modern fantasy employ children as heroes? M: Yes, the trend is exemplified in fairy tales, Disney films, and popular stories and children have become the huge consumers of fantasy. W: Does it mean the theme in fantasy literature is more attractive only to children? M: Well, that isn’t to say that all the fantasy marketed to children is for children alone; adults can have just as much fun reading aloud at bedtime as their kids do. In fact, the most attractive part is that in children’s fantasy anything goes: plants eat dirty socks, and cats become wise police officers. 听第9段材料，回答第14至16题。 A Guide to Fantasy Literature is a wide-ranging, thoughtful look at the magic of fantasy storytelling and why it delights and enchants readers of all ages. The book discusses the nature of the best writing, from tales of Middle Earth and Narnia to many other examples of high fantasy, dark fantasy, fairy-tale fiction, magic realism, and adventure-fantasy tales. The book also examines the major building blocks of fantasy fiction, and discusses the purpose and popularity of fantasy literature today. It includes material from original interviews and many brief samples of outstanding passages from the writings of the best fantasists, from J. R. R. Tolkien to J. K. Rowling, from C. S. Lewis to Stephen King, drawing an inclusive picture of a vibrant literary community across the ages. 听第10段材料，回答第17至20题。 Joanne Kathleen Rowling was born on July 31st, 1965 in Chipping Sodbury, Gloucestershire, England. Rowling’s writing career started at the age of six when she wrote a story called Rabbit. Since then Rowling has graduated from Exeter, worked as a teacher and been an unemployed single parent. Divorced and living on public assistance in a tiny flat, Rowling wrote Harry Potter and the Philosopher’s Stone at a table in a café during her daughter’s naps. When Harry Potter and the Philosopher’s Stone was bought and published by Bloomsbury in 1997, her life changed dramatically, and the Harry Potter series has since then won numerous awards and become a tremendous success around the world.

What’s the matter with you? You look pale and tired. M: My wife had an operation yesterday and I took care of her the whole night. W: No wonder. What’s wrong with her? Is it serious? M: In fact, she gave birth to a baby. W: Ha.That’s good news. So you are a father now. Congratulations! M: Thank you. By the way, could you help me give the report to the manager? I have to go back to the hospital and buy some food for my wife. W: Sure. You can rely on me. If possible, I’d like to see your wife and baby this evening. M: You will be welcome. But you’d better be a little early, as visiting time is over at 7:30 pm. After that, no visitor is permitted in that hospital. 听第7段材料，回答第9至11题。 W: This is Lisa speaking. Who’s that? M: Hi, Lisa. It’s Jeff. I have got two tickets for the concert tonight. So I’d like to invite you to go with me. W: That’s great. I love classical music very much. But I have to look after my little sister since my parents have gone to New York. M: Don’t be frustrated. We can ask my mother for help. She loves children and is good at tending to them. W: Thank you so much. Then when shall we leave? M: It’s 3:20 now. I’ll pick you up in my car 40 minutes later and have supper before the concert. What would you like to eat? Steak or fried chicken? W: Both of them contain too much oil. I prefer some Chinese food. M: OK, it’s up to you. The concert will be over at 7:30 pm. After that, let’s have a walk along the square and we can have a snack there. W: I’m afraid I can’t. I have to go home and finish my report. I should hand it to the manager tomorrow. 听第8段材料，回答第12至14题。 W: Hi, darling. You look unhappy these days. What’s up? M: I may lose my best workmate George, the guy who attending our wedding two years ago. W: I know him. I remember he’s a considerate and kind-hearted man. What happened to you? M: We had a quarrel last week and he refused to talk to me now. W: How come? He’s so gentle. M: I advised our boss to build a new factory in the countryside, since land price is lower there. We can save lot of money. But George objected to my proposal. He thought the project would destroy the habitat of some wild animals and cause great pollution to the local environment. So we had a bad quarrel. W: I know you are hoping your company to develop better and have some suggestions. You deserve praising as a clerk. But what George said is right. After all, we have only one earth. Once the environment is destroyed, it’s hard for some animals to survive. M: Maybe you’re right. I’ll give up my proposal and apologies to George. 听第9段材料，回答第15至17题。 M: Oh, you are Cathy! Long time no see. I’m Andrew, do you remember me? W: Andrew, it’s you! I didn’t recognise you. You’ve changed a lot. When we were at school, you were a short, slim boy, while now you’ve grown so big and tall, and even have a large belly. M: That’s because I eat up all the left-overs in my family. Thus my wife can keep in good figure. W: Such a great husband. You’re just as considerate as before, but more humorous. M: In contrast with me, you become more and more beautiful. I still remember the little girl with a pair of black glasses. At that time, you were so shy and your face would turn red whenever speaking to others. But now you’re more talkative. W: Yes. We’ve both changed a lot. Do you still remember David? M: You mean the thinnest boy in our class? W: That’s right. Now he is very strong and he’s becomes a serious professor. M: Really? I can’t believe it. He was very naughty before and we all called him “monkey”. He was a regular visitor to the teachers’ office, since he often failed to do his homework. W: Anything may change with the passing of time. What remains the same is our friendship. 听第10段材料，回答第18至20题。 In our life, we have all met unforgettable people and have some precious memories. When I was young, I lived with my grandparents in a mountain village. There I got to know Chuck. Accompanied by Chuck, I no longer felt lonely and bored. I still remember the first time we met. I was climbing a tree to pick apples. A dog barked fiercely under the tree. I was scared to come down. Just then, Chuck appeared. He drove the dog away and saved me. From then on, we became friends. We were two of a kind. In summer, we would play in the river and fish from the bank. At night, counting the stars from the field was a good choice. When winter came, we would have snowball fights and make snowmen. We were so delighted in those days. Although Chuck was one year younger, he often took care of me. One day, we were playing so happily in the field that we forgot the time. It was getting dark and began to rain. It was so cold that I trembled all over. Chuck took off his coat and put it on my shoulders. He insisted that he was OK. But in fact, he caught a bad cold that night. I still feel sorry whenever I think of it. When I was 16, my parents took me back to the city to attend High School. We have been separated ever since then. But our friendship lasts. We send emails regularly and arrange to meet, and soon we’ll go to the same university.

Here are some new styles. M: No, I just thought there might be some good bargains. Text 2 W: Do you know that Michael Owen has won the French Football Golden Ball Award? M: Not a surprise. He scored twenty goals this season. Text 3 W: I’m sorry I was late for work, Mr. Black, but I overslept, because my alarm clock didn’t work this morning. M: Well, it’s OK this time, Mary. But it’s disturbing the rest of your colleagues, you know. W: Yes, I know. I won’t let it happen again. I’m so sorry. Text 4 W: Excuse me, could you tell me the way to the TV station? M: Yes. Go three blocks, and then turn right. The TV station is opposite to the post office. Text 5 W: That was a wonderful concert. I hope you liked it as much as I did. M: I am sorry to admit that I fell asleep for about 45 minutes.

How about you, Paul? M: My favourite music is loud rock music, Betty. W: Oh, really? When do you usually listen to it? M: I love listening to it especially in the mornings. How about you? W: I listen to my music in the evenings in my room, but never in the morning or in the afternoon. M: That’s nice. I usually listen to heavy metal at concerts where the music is really loud. 听第7段材料，回答第8至10 题。 W: Hello, John. Did you see the concert last night? M: Yes. I liked it so much. W: Do you know the main singer? M: Of course. He is Jack who sings well. I really like him. His voice is wonderful. W: Quite right. But I heard something had happened to him. His right arm was injured before the concert. M: I didn’t notice that. From that, I can say he is an excellent singer. And they will have their concert in New York this Wednesday. W: People will go crazy. M: And next week they will play in San Francisco. I plan to go to Washington on vacation at that time, so I can’t attend it. W: What a pity! 听第8段材料，回答第11至13题。 Hello, everybody. Here is a survey on music in my class and this is what I have found lately. In my class, every student is fond of listening to music, among whom 65% listen to music on the radio before they come to school. About half of them (50%) listen to MP4s on their way to school or back home. During the day, they are forbidden to listen to music at school. But in the evening, nearly 55% of the students listen to music while they are doing their homework. They say listening to music benefits them. Nearly 60% of the students believe that music can help them wake up in the morning. In the evening, they do so to help them relax when they are doing their homework. 听第9段材料，回答第14至16题。 Music is found in every known culture, varying wildly between times and places. Around 10,000 BC, people began to make flutes from bones. People started to sing as soon as their language was developed. The first kind of music in the world started about 2,500 BC. Music is one of the oldest arts. The origins of Chinese music and poetry can be found in The Book of Songs which contains poems composed between 1,000 BC and 600 BC. The text in early Chinese literature contains folk songs and stately songs. 听第10段材料，回答第17至20题。 Good morning! Thank you for attending this meeting. I want to tell you something about the music club. This is a new club for students who like music. Everyone is welcome. Here are some forms for you to fill out. Please hand them in after the meeting. On Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays，we will listen to CDs that club members bring to the meetings. There will be many different kinds of music. Club members will talk about the people who had written and performed the music. On Tuesdays, Thursdays and Saturdays，club members will perform their own music. Many students can sing or play musical instruments. The music club will give them a chance to perform in front of other students.

M: Ian Wilmut, a Scottish researcher did. Text 2 W: Why do you think that cloning can be beneficial? M: At least if cloning is successful, more and more endangered animals will be saved. W: But I think that depends. Text 3 W: Why do you think cloning can help the old and the sick? M: At least some cloned organs can be transplanted in their body. W: Sounds reasonable. Text 4 W: Why are you against cloning? M: Cloning can confuse society. There would be two or more of you. W: So laws should be made then. Text 5 W: What is your opinion on cloning? M: Cloning is a new technology, so no matter what scientists do, they should try their best to make full use of it to help human beings. W: I quite agree with you. There have to be rules and regulations to control what scientists do. 第二节（共15小题；每小题1.5分，满分22.5分） 听下面5段对话或独白。每段对话或独白后有几个小题，从题中所给的A、B、C三个选项中选出最佳选项，并标在试卷的相应位置。听每段对话或独白前，你将有时间阅读各个小题，每小题5秒钟；听完后，各小题将给出5秒钟的作答时间。每段对话或独白读两遍。 听第6段材料，回答第6 、7 题。 W: Will you tell me what cloning is? M: Well, cloning is the creation of cells or whole animals using DNA from a single “parent”, bypassing the normal reproductive process. The clone has the same DNA as the parent. W: But how are clones created? M: The most common process takes DNA from one cell and puts it in a hollowed-out egg. Chemicals and electricity are then used to encourage the new DNA to combine with the egg and develop into an embryo. This technique is called nuclear transfer. 听第7段材料，回答第8至10 题。 W: Are clones normal, healthy animals? M: The first cloned sheep — Dolly is, but scientists do not yet know whether this is the exception or the rule. Some early evidence suggests that clones may have health problems and that they may age prematurely. W: Could a human clone be born soon? M: In theory, yes. The techniques used to create Dolly could be applied to humans. But the technology of reproductive cloning is still in its very early stages and there is much that scientists do not understand. It took more than 200 attempts to make Dolly. The other embryos failed. Even if a clone makes it to birth, at present it has a very low chance of surviving into adult life. 听第8段材料，回答第11至13题。 W: Has anyone said they will make live human clones? M: Yes. A number of people have said that, including Chicago physicist Dr. Richard Seed. However, few experts believe that these people have the skills to succeed. W: Where does the law stand on live human clones? M: In the UK, human cloning is already banned by law. President Bill Clinton proposed banning research into producing human clones in the US. Some measures have also been made to establish international agreements banning live human clones. 听第9段材料，回答第14至16题。 A 10-month-old baby boy died and his sad parents have vowed to give him a second chance to life. They’ve paid $500,000 to have a company called Clonaid to make a clone of their son. “We will do all that is possible to bring the twin of this boy back to life,” said Brigitte Boisselier, director of Clonaid. Boisselier is not alone in her desire to clone a human. Another team of scientists recently announced that they, too, have begun a similar experiment. If either team is successful in copying a human being, it will be a truly earthshaking event. 听第10段材料，回答第17至20题。 My name is Pam. I used to have a lovely dog called Rover. He was a really beautiful dog. He had a little wrinkled nose and big soft ears. He was my best friend, and I treated him as one of the family. One day I left the front door open by mistake, and he ran outside into the road. I heard a loud noise and rushed outside. A car had hit him, and Rover was lying on the ground lifeless. My Rover was dead. I was so upset, and it was all my fault. I really didn’t think I could continue without my Rover. Anyway, one day I read that scientists could bring your pets back to life through cloning. I said, “That’s it!” I knew it was something I had to do. My parents said it was nonsense, but I refused to listen to them. I used all my money and gave the scientists one of Rover’s hairs. Soon I had a new little dog whose genes were identical to Rover. I even called him Rover and was really happy. He had the same wrinkled nose and soft ears. But after three weeks he died of some unknown disease! I really wish I hadn’t cloned Rover now, losing him twice was too much.

W: More than 30 different countries and more than 100 million people were involved. Text 3 W: Were nuclear weapons used in the Second World War? M: Yes, nuclear weapons were first used in the Second World War, resulting in an estimated 50 million to 85 million deaths. Text 4 W: When did the European Axis powers launch an invasion on the Soviet Union? M: In June 1941, which started the largest war. Text 5 W: When did Japan join the Axis and attack the United States and European territories in the Pacific Ocean? M: In December 1941. They quickly conquered much of the Western Pacific. 第二节（共15小题；每小题1.5分，满分22.5分） 听下面5段对话或独白。每段对话或独白后有几个小题，从题中所给的A、B、C三个选项中选出最佳选项，并标在试卷的相应位置。听每段对话或独白前，你将有时间阅读各个小题，每小题5秒钟；听完后，各小题将给出5秒钟的作答时间。每段对话或独白读两遍。 听第6段材料，回答第6 、7 题。 W: Which book are you reading?

M: It is generally considered to have started on 1 September 1939 with the invasion of Poland by Germany and following declarations of war on Germany by France and the United Kingdom. W: But some conflicts in Asia that are commonly viewed as becoming part of the world war had begun earlier than 1939. M: Yes. The Empire of Japan was already at war with the Republic of China in 1937 but the war after 1939 involved the vast majority of the world’s nations — including all of the great powers — eventually forming two opposing military alliances: the Allies and the Axis. 听第8段材料，回答第10至12题。 W: When did the Cold War begin? M: Well, historians have so far not reached any agreement on the time in which the Cold War Began. It is, however, quite safe to say that it began in 1947 when President Truman of the United States declared an anti-communist policy. W: What was the background that leaded to the Cold War? M: The US government realized that a prosperous Europe would be the most effective barrier to Communism. On 4 June 1947, the US Secretary of State, George Marshal, spoke at the Harvard University. W: What was the speech about? M: He said, “It is logical that the United States should do whatever it is able to do to assist in the return of normal economic health in the world, without which there can be no political stability and no assured peace.” Immediately after the speech the United States invited all European countries to put forward plans for economic reconstruction so that the United States would provide the necessary financial aid to them. The Soviet Union refused to accept the American financial aid. The Cold War began. 听第9段材料，回答第13至16题。 The American Civil War, which started in1861 and ended in 1865, was a civil war in the United States of America. Eleven Southern slave states declared their separation from the United States and formed the Confederate States of America, also known as “the Confederacy”. Led by Jefferson Davis, the Confederacy fought for its independence from the United States. The US federal government was supported by twenty mostly-Northern free states in which slavery had already been abolished, and by five slave states that became known as the border states. These twenty-five states, referred to as the Union, had a much larger base of population and industry than the South. After four years of bloody warfare, the Confederacy surrendered and slavery was outlawed everywhere in the nation. 听第10段材料，回答第17至20题。 American paratroopers in Normandy in June 1944 thought they had captured a Japanese soldier in German uniform, but he turned out to be Korean.

A survey shows that a greater number of people spent their holidays travelling abroad, the rate of which in 2009 doubled that of 2008. And we are sure it is still increasing because more and more people can afford it. The rate of people going camping and climbing mountains in 2009 is four times that of in 2008. The reason may be that the beauty of nature is attracting people who are eager to get closer to nature. Things about travelling to the seaside were different. The rate dropped from 40% in 2008 to 23% in 2009. This is because of pollution. The polluted seaside would certainly drive the visitors away. 综合检测二 第一部分 听力（共两节，满分30分） 第一节（共5小题；每小题1.5分，满分7.5分） 听下面5段对话。每段对话后有一个小题，从题中所给的A、B、C三个选项中选出最佳选项，并标在试卷的相应位置。听完每段对话后，你都有10秒钟的时间来回答有关小题和阅读下一小题。每段对话仅读一遍。 Text 1 M: I’ve got my camera with me.

M: When I did my first job in 1982 and started travelling. I had no other choice but to eat out and I found that I felt different due to what I was eating, so I tried to find places that served food that made me feel good. The secret was the quality of the food and how well the food was prepared. I made an effort to find out good restaurants as well as nice dishes. W: How did you manage to make a list of 218 favourite restaurants? M: I’ve lived in cities and when I moved back to Sweden from the United States, people asked me where to go and eat and went to the cities I know. I got a lot of ideas. Then I wrote about restaurants for a Swedish club magazine and some suggested I gather information about restaurants together since I had all the facts about the restaurants I’ve been to. I started to do that. W: How do you find restaurants? M: The best way is to ask people. I may talk to people at the street market or take a walk and look for place by myself. I never asked hotel clerks or taxi drivers. I don’t go either to restaurants or places with menus too difficult to understand. 听第10段材料，回答第17至20题。 M: At the beginning of the tour, we all started the most important place at my town which is the Plaza Leon. The Plaza Leon is more than 100 years old. It’s a gathering place for young people on Friday and Saturday nights and for parents and children on Sunday afternoon. Four streets lead to the Plaza which have white sidewalks and tree lined. Hemandes Street which was named after a writer born in the city contains all of the food stalls fish markets and vegetable stands. Femando Street which was named after a famous educator is where all of the government offices, shops and houses are. Via Del Mar Street which is the only street which has couple stones. Finally we came to Hewish’s Street on which there are two universities, one of which is the most famous university in my country. That’s why it’s my favourite street of all. 本文来源：https://www.wddqw.com/doc/bed2cbfcc2c708a1284ac850ad02de80d4d8068e.html
