Questions 11 through 13 are based on the following passage.
Many leaders are worried about how productive their people can actually be at home. New data, however, suggests that they can probably relax.
The data comes from RescueTime, a time management tool that monitors how you spend every minute of time on your computer so you can make better use of your day. The company carefully examined the information and delivered happy news about our productivity when we work from home.
According to the data, knowledge workers, software developers and IT professionals are all more productive when they work from home. It shows remote workers had a 4% increase in average daily time spent on their important work and an 18% decrease in time spent on communication. Over a year, that adds up to 58 more hours spent on important work.
If the time saved on communication is added to the time saved from traveling to and from work, workers will save at least three hours a day when they go remote. That ’ s great news for managers, and employees are probably pretty excited about that shift too.
The data suggests the leaders can remove at least one item from their long list of anxieties. Remote work probably isn’t killing their team’s productivity.
(Now listen again, please)
Questions:
11.What does the passage mainly want to tell us
12.According to the data from RescueTime, how much percent of time can be saved on communication each day
13.How can the data from RescueTime influence leaders
Questions 14 through 16 are based on the following passage.
There’s a day for just about everything, and the United Nations has selected May 20 as World Bee Day for worldwide recognition of the importance of bees.
“ There are 20,000 species of bees around the world and a lot of these bees are in decline,” says Joseph Smith, a bee expert with the UN’s Food and Agriculture Organization. That includes honeybees, of course, but Smith says they only make up a very small part of all the kinds of bees in the world. Climate change, poisonous chemicals used in agriculture and the loss of living spaces are putting many of those species at risk. “Bees really provide for us in many ways, like food and human well-being. They’re important for our culture, dating back thousands of years in terms of inspiration of art,” Smith says.
They even provide inspiration for Erika Thompson, a professional beekeeper in Texas, to share her work online. Her fans watch with delight — and sometimes a little horror — as she picks up piles of bees with her bare hands and then moves them from dangerous places to somewhere safer. Thompson’s work is about more than getting millions of views per video. She notes that bees are a key factor in creating diverse and healthy ecosystems.
(Now listen again, please)
Questions:
14.What is the passage mainly about
15.Which of the following is one of the factors that are putting bees at risk
16.What impact might Erika Thompson’s online videos most probably bring
Questions 17 through 20 are based on the following conversation.
M: I’ve really been looking forward to seeing Marvel’s new movie at the theatre.
W: I know the critics gave it good reviews, but I was hoping to watch a movie at home. How about just streaming a different Marvel movie tonight
M: What No. I want to see the most current one. And to really get the full effect, you have to see the movie on the silver screen.
W: But it’s more relaxing at home, and I can lie down while watching something. I’m kind of
exhausted, you know.
M: Once we get to the theatre, you’ll feel better.
W: I doubt it. We have more freedom at home, too. We can pause the movie and get snacks or use the bathroom without missing anything.
M: But I enjoy that commercial experience of watching a movie in the dark with strangers. And only on a big screen can you see all the tiny details you might miss on a TV screen. And the sound surrounds you and makes you feel like you’re right in the screen.
W: Well, you can’t stay in that world when people’s phones light up.
M: It only happens occasionally. Anyway, it’ll do us good to get out.
W: OK, I guess…but I hope this time there won’t be a tall guy sitting in front of me.

We can use dictionaries to translate words, but it is in our family that we learn to interpret the world. That learning process can be frightful, funny and even a matter of life and death.
I remember one scene as if it had happened yesterday. I was 5 years old. Louie, my favorite uncle let me push the shopping cart on a grocery excursion. I made a mistake and took another shopper ’ s cart as we sped down the meat section. The angry victim shouted at my uncle to watch me more carefully. Louie, one of the kindest and funniest persons I knew, pretended to shout at me and hit me on the head with the store’s advertising leaflet, “You boy, what did I tell you What did I tell you ”
Growing up with Louie, I immediately realized this was playful and I laughed, and so did he. He smiled at the angry grown-up, and said, “I’m sorry, buddy.” That first led to a smile, then laughter from someone who, seconds before, was ready for battle. Young as I was, I sensed I just witnessed something remarkable.
The first people who help us make sense of the world are family members. They are the early teachers of our experience. Often these family members are meant to help a child cope with immediate circumstances, but some meanings can last a lifetime.

Questions 14 through 16 are based on the following passage.
TED, which is short for Technology, Entertainment, Design, is a media organization which posts talks online for free distribution under the slogan “ideas worth spreading.” TED was founded in February 1984 as a conference, which has been held annually since 1990. TED’s early emphasis was technology and design, but it has since broadened its focus to include talks on many scientific, cultural, and academic topics.
You might think their success has to do with the quality of the speakers, and that’s partially true, but the main reason extends much deeper. TED makes their events interesting because the organizers are interesting. They select interesting themes, interesting speakers and interesting audiences. According to Lara Stein, the founder and director of TED, the TED philosophy consists of one sentence — it is about simplified storytelling.
TED is a powerful event, because the organizers and staff don’t do it for the money or the fame. They do it to make a difference and they are doing it out of passion. Another main ingredient involves careful selection of the audience. One San Diego organizer of TED says, “We want the right types of people in the room to be able to listen to and engage with our content, and will actively promote those kinds of conversations on a regular basis.”
(Now listen again, please.)
Questions:
14.What was TED’s early emphasis
15.According to the passage, what is true about Ted
16.What is the passage mainly about
Questions 17 through 20 are based on the following conversation.
M: Hi, everybody. It’s great to have Lisa Fletcher in our school internet radio studio today. Lisa, you’re planning to study Food Science at university, and you already know a lot about one aspect of food science, don’t you
W: Hi! Well … quite a lot … I’ve been finding out about insects as a source of food for humans.
M: That’s an unusual idea, isn’t it
W: Not really, actually. It’s unusual here in Britain, but in some parts of the world it’s absolutely normal. Some people estimate that about two billion people worldwide eat insects. And things like red food colouring and some flavourings, for example, are made from insects, so they’ re already ingredients in many people’s diets, even if they don’t realise it.
M: So, have human beings always eaten insects
W: It seems so. They may in fact have been a large part of early humans’ diets all over the world, because in prehistoric times it was easier to find insects to eat than to go out hunting for larger animals.
M: And how about nowadays Is there anything you found particularly surprising
W: There was. It’s the fact that people who eat some types of insect feel disgusted by the idea of eating certain other types of insect. It’s really a question of what you’re used to.
M: And have you ever eaten an insect yourself
W: Not a whole one, because I’m still just a little scared of insects. But I have tried an energy bar made from insect flour. It didn’t taste too bad, and was full of healthy ingredients, but the most exciting thing for me is that it might get people in the West to begin to accept the idea of insects as a source of protein.
M: Thanks very much, Lisa, and good luck with your studies! W: Thank you!
(Now listen again, please.)

In the past, craftsmen were serious about making furniture. Since they were not keen on seeking wealth, they could settle down to make real artistic works. No wonder people nowadays love their products. Insiders estimate that there are at least 50 to 60 stores in Shanghai that sell used goods. Apart from furniture stores, business of stores that sell secondhand jewels booms as well.
Recently, bookstores that sell secondhand books have reappeared in Shanghai. Some books were made during the late Qing Dynasty while other books during the 1980s. People flood into these bookstores to look for books that are good yet not expensive.

Questions 14 through 16 are based on the following passage.
Researchers have found that students who tutor others work harder to understand the material, recall it more accurately and apply it more effectively. Student teachers score higher on tests than pupils who are learning only for their own sake. But how can children, still learning themselves, teach others One answer is that they can tutor younger kids.
Now educators are experimenting with a new way to apply this model to academic subjects. The cutting-edge tool under development is the “teachable agent” — a computerized character who learns, tries, makes mistakes and asks questions just like a real-world puter scientists have created an animated figure called Betty’s Brain, who has been “taught” about environmental science by hundreds of middle school students. Student teachers are motivated to help Betty master certain materials. While preparing to teach, they organize their knowledge and improve their own understanding. And as they explain the information to it, they identify problems in their own thinking.
Feedback from the teachable agents further enhances the tutors’ learning. The agents’ questions oblige student tutors to think and explain the materials in different ways, and watching the agent solve problems allows them to see their knowledge put into action.
Above all, it’s the emotions one experiences in teaching that facilitate learning. Student tutors feel upset when their teachable agents fail, but happy when these virtual pupils succeed as they obtain pride and satisfaction from someone else’s accomplishment.

W: How do you feel about the future of the artificial intelligence Personally, I feel quite optimistic about it.
M: AI I’m not so optimistic actually. In fact, it’s something we should be concerned about.
W: Well, it will help us humans understand ourselves better. And when we have a better understanding of ourselves, we can improve the world.
M: Well, one thing is for sure, technology is evolving faster than our ability to understand it. And in the future AI will make jobs kind of meaningless.
W: I think artificial intelligence will actually help create new kinds of jobs, which would require less of our time and allow us to focus on creative tasks.
M: I doubt that very much. Probably the last job that will remain will be writing AI software. And then eventually AI will just write its own software.
W: At that time we are going to have a lot of jobs, which nobody will want to do. So we will need artificial intelligence for the robots to take care of the old guys like us.
M: I don’t know. There’s a risk that human civilization could be replaced by a superior type of digital life. AI will be able to completely imitate a person in every way possible. In fact, some people think we’re in an imitation right now.
W: That’s impossible. Humans can’t even make a puters only have chips. People have brains. And that’s where the wisdom comes from.
M: Once it’s fully developed, AI will become tired of trying to communicate with humans as we would be much slower thinkers in comparison.
W: Well, I’m not so sure. A computer is a computer and a computer is just a toy.
M: Computers can easily communicate incredibly fast. So the computer will just get impatient talking to humans, and it’ll be barely getting any information out.
W: Well, I believe there’s a bright future with AI. I also think you watch too many science-fiction films.

Clubhouse is the latest app that is taking the world by storm. It consists of rooms where people talk about set topics over audio only. You start off as a listener, so you aren’t able to speak right away. But sometimes the best way to learn is to slow down and just listen. Then you can quietly consider what people say about their work, lives and experiences. You just might discover something new.
These days people have more online friends than ever yet are still lonely. Clubhouse stands out from other apps in the way it helps users engage with others. They can laugh over common interests or have deep discussions. They can feel heard and appreciated. Without video, they can even drop some of their insecurities and say what they’re feeling.

Hateful speech and false statements have become a problem as Clubhouse's membership has grown. Moving forward, it is important for Clubhouse to find a way to track discussions and protect users.

The Watts Towers are located in the Watts community of Los Angeles, California. They are decorated with broken glass, shells and other found objects. There are three tall pointed towers, four smaller towers, and even a place to sit that is covered by a roof. The towers were built by Simon Rodia. The artist, who was born in Italy in 1879, began constructing the Watts Towers in 1921 at the age of 42. He spent 33 years constructing the towers. What he called “OUR Tower” was his life’s work. The official name of his work is “The Watts Towers of Simon Rodia”. Rodia died in 1965.
The Watts community claimed the towers as part of their heritage. The Watts Towers Arts Centre was founded to support arts education. It has worked with a lot of artists representing various media, such as visual arts, film-making, writing, music and performing arts. The towers suffered little from the 1994 Northridge earthquake.

By getting involved with community activities, teenagers can come into contact with peers having similar interests and opinions and positive adult role models other than their parents. Interacting and cooperating with other adults and peers in community organizations encourages teenagers to see the world in different ways. It also helps them see how to put values or beliefs into action for the good of others.
Community activities can improve teenagers ’ self-confidence. They can learn to deal with challenges, communicate with different people and build up their life skills in a supportive environment.
It’s also a great foundation for mental health and wellbeing.

M: That's right! Victoria is obviously a quieter person.
W: She is quieter, yes, but she’s obviously less confident, too. Did you notice her weak handshake Evelyn’s handshake was firm.
M: I don’t think that detail is so important.
W: She also had poor eye contact. She was extremely nervous.
M: Well...
W: Great qualifications, but total lack of confidence. And she never smiled. I think she is a person who doesn't work well in stressful situations. Evelyn had an expressive face, was smiling and had very good eye contact.
M: Maybe Victoria was just a bit frightened by the whole setup. That doesn’t mean she can’t handle stressful situations. You want to reject her simply because she was a bit nervous
W: How do we choose then, given the fact their qualifications are almost identical
M: Come to think of it, Victoria is more experienced.
W: By five months Not much of a difference.

Section B
Directions: In Section B, you will hear two passages and one longer conversation, and you will be asked several questions on each of the passages and the conversation. The passages and the conversation will be read twice, but the questions will be spoken only once. When you hear a question, read the four possible answers on your paper and decide which one is the best answer to the question you have heard.
Questions 11 through 13 are based on the following passage.
There are few topics as debatable as our diet. No one wants to be told what to eat. Yet a food switching seems to be gaining popularity. More and more of us are interested in reducing the impact of our diet on the environment. Specifically, we want to eat less meat.
While all-out vegetarianism is becoming more popular, it ’ s still a minority position. A recent survey suggests that just five per cent of adults in the UK, and three per cent in the US are vegetarian. Most don’t want to eliminate animal products completely, but do want to cut back. This raises the question of not just how much meat we should eat, but what types. We often talk about steak, lamb chops, bacon and chicken as if they’re on a level playing field. Just ‘meat’. But their impacts are vastly different. Per gram of protein, beef has almost ten times the carbon footprint of chicken. It uses 23 times as much farmland. If we were to rank them in order: beef and lamb have the highest cost; pork has significantly less; chicken is even lower; and many types of fish are better still.
This means that if you want to reduce the environmental footprint of your diet, substituting beef and lamb with chicken and fish gets you really far. In fact, this has a much larger impact than switching from eating moderate amounts of chicken to a vegetarian or vegan diet. That’ s the recommendation I give to most people. Eat less meat overall, but also replace the beef steak with chicken or fish.
(Now listen again, please.)
Questions:
11.Why do people want to eat less meat
12.Which of the following foods probably has the greatest impact on the environment
13.According to the passage, what does the speaker suggest we do
Questions 14 through 16 are based on the following passage.
Like so many nature films these days, the film Escape from Extinction begins with the bad news: a lot of global headlines highlighting the bad effect of oil spills and extreme weather on life on Earth. This particular film, directed by Matthew R. Brady, then focuses on species threatened by the sixth mass extinction event.
It soon becomes different from other environmental films, because of its unique opinion on the best way forward: zoos. Actress Helen Mirren assures us that zoos have changed. She says, “Once connected with exhibition and entertainment, modern zoological facilities are leaders in the fight against mass extinction.”
Even if that connection passes you by, it is impossible to ignore the support for zoos throughout the world. As American Humane president Robin Ganzert says, “The only reason certain species are alive today is that zoos have saved them from extinction.” They are even supported in other areas such as marine life.
People repeatedly refer to “zoological facilities” in order to make zoos sound like the reasonable, scientific choice.
The one thing the film does do well is to make the problem of extinction feel urgent. It also calls for action over sympathy. Mirren adds that repairing the damage we’ve done to the environment requires more than abstract inspiration.
However, for me, despite the film’s central message that the coming ecological collapse calls for the need for zoos, what is in urgent demand is a restructuring of the economy, environmental protection and restoration, and the will to act now.
(Now listen again, please.)
Questions:
14.Which of the following is the most important to the fight against mass extinction
15.How does the speaker like the film
16.What is the passage mainly about
Questions 17 through 20 are based on the following conversation.
M: Linda, you are what’s called a vlogger—you put online videos that you have made for people to watch, in your case about environmental issues. How did you learn to do that
W: At university, my department was running these courses for helping people become vloggers, so I went along to those. There is so much stuff about it online, but I just found it confusing.
M: Why did you choose to focus on environmental issues
W: It’s just something that I have believed is vital for ages and I think too little is being done, so I wanted to help.
M: What’s your major Is it related to your major
W: It’s not connected to what I am studying at university, so it wasn’t like I got advice from any of my classmates.
M: How did you feel when your videos first became a hit
W: I was expecting to only have a few people watching regularly for years. I couldn’t believe how wrong I was about this.
M: Do you have any tips for those who are interested in vlogging For example, how often should people upload videos if they want to become successful
W: Well, it’s not about the more the better, because people will soon get bored and it will also be hard for you to come up with new ideas.
M: Say once a month
W: That’s not going to work, either. In my opinion, aiming for weekly is probably frequent enough.
M: I see. By the way what’s your latest video about
W: I’ve just finished a series encouraging more people to use buses and trains rather than their cars, but I’ll be moving on how to reuse things we usually throw away like glass and plastic.
M: That is amazing! Good luck!Thanks, Linda!

Questions 11 through 13 are based on the following passage.
If you have ever run or watched a marathon, you know it requires considerable endurance to run 26.2 miles. Some runners give up before the end, but others find the motivation to continue running. What can explain this difference Runners from some parts of the world seem to be especially good at marathons. For example, athletes who live and train at places much higher than sea level generally have an edge over other athletes in long-distance races. Their hearts use oxygen more efficiently, so they can run for an extended period of time without getting tired or out of breath.
Kenya and Ethiopia are known for their long-distance runners. Over the years, some of the best marathoners in these two nations have come from mountainous regions. It seems that these are most favorable conditions for an athlete to build strength and get in shape. Yet, this can't be the only explanation for the success of these athletes. Not all mountainous regions produce long-distance runners. Another factor may be that most of these runners have light, thin bodies. Experts believe that this may play an important role in their success in marathons. A final factor may be that they get positive feedback from running. Not only do they get financial rewards, but success can lead to national popularity in Kenya and Ethiopia.

11.What is the speaker mainly talking about
12.What advantage do runners have if they are trained at places much higher than sea level 13.What can be learned about the marathoners in Kenya and Ethiopia from the passage
Questions 14 through 16 are based on the following passage.
Researchers have created the first complete map of the world’s coral reefs. Development of the map was led by Greg Asner and other scientists at Arizona State University. They partnered with coral reef scientists, universities, non-profit organizations across the world. The online map is designed to be a coral conservation tool that can also support ocean planning and coral science activities. Called the Allen Coral Atlas, the map was named after Microsoft’s late co-founder, Paul Allen.
Allen’s private company, Vulcan Inc., started providing financial support to the project in 2017. The idea came out of an effort by researcher Ruth Gates of Hawaii to create “super coral” to help save reefs. When announcing the launch of the map recently, the creators said it is the first worldwide, detailed map of its kind. It gives users the ability to see detailed information about local reefs, including different kinds of undersea structures like sand, rocks, seagrass and coral.
The University of Queensland in Australia used AI technology and local data to help build the maps. Anyone can look at the maps for free online. Both Allen and researcher Ruth Gates died in 2018, leaving Asner and others to carry on their work. Asner said Gates “would be so pleased that this is really happening.” He said many of the calls he is receiving are from researchers who hope to use the maps to “be sure that their planning and their reef restoration work is going to have its max effectiveness.”

Questions 17 through 20 are based on the following conversation
W: Hi, Bob. I saw your group's performance last night at the student theatre. It was great.
M: Really Yeah ... but now we have to write a report on the whole thing, an in-depth analysis. Like, I have to write about the role I played, the doctor, how I developed the character.
W: Well, what was your starting point
M: Er, my grandfather was a doctor before he retired and I just based it on him.
W: OK, but how Did you talk to him about it
M: He must have all sorts of stories, but he never says much about his work, even now. He has a sort of authority though. W: So how did you manage to capture that
M: I’d... I’d visualize what he must have been like in the past, when he was sitting in his consulting room listening to his patients.
W: You have much to explain in your report. Then there's the issue of atmosphere—so in the first scene we need to know how boring life was in the doctor's village in the 1950s, so when the curtain went up in the waiting room, there was that long silence. And then people kept saying the same thing over and over, like "Cold, isn't it "
M: Yes, and everyone wore grey and brown, and just sat in a row.
W: Yes, all those details of the production.
M: And I have to analyze how I functioned in the group—what I found out about myself. I know I was so frustrated at times when we couldn’t agree.
W: Yes, so did one person emerge as the leader
M: Susan did. That was OK—she helped us work out exactly what to do, for the production. And that made me feel better, I suppose.
W: When you understood what needed doing Erm. And did you have any practical problems to overcome
M: Well, in the final rehearsal everything was going fine until the last scene—that’s where the
doctor’s first patient appears on stage on his own.
W: The one in the wheelchair
M: Yes, and he had this really long speech, with the stage all dark for one spotlight—and then that stuck somehow so it was shining on the wrong side of the stage… but anyway we got that
fixed.
W: Yes, it was fine last night.

Public schools in Washington D. C. provide students with musical instruments for free. When something goes wrong with an instrument, Charles West does the repairs. He has worked there for almost 20 years. This year alone, he has fixed 250 instruments. He deals with his work with passion. For him, it’s important that students have a joyful experience with music. Charles is a musician and music lover, so learning to do repairs came naturally.
In addition to fixing instruments, he also goes to schools to instruct teachers and students on how to make minor repairs on their own.
He believes if children start early and stay involved with music, it enriches other areas of their lives. “I see that in other kids. I see it in myself. I have seen it hundreds of times and it works,” he says. “They learn teamwork. They learn patience and respect.” But he has concerns about the future of music in the electronic age.
“This instant age has taken away the sit-down, the patience. And to learn to play an instrument, it takes patience; it takes diligence; it takes time. ”
Being able to enjoy music is one of the benefits of the job. Charles agrees his best reward is the students’ performances.

Every day, people who want to sell you something compete to draw your attention. As a result, advertisements are almost everywhere. In the West, advertisements are the fuel that makes mass media work. The government does not give money to mass media such as TV stations, newspapers, magazines and websites. They are all owned privately. So where does the money come from From advertisements, without which, there would not be these private businesses.
Have you ever asked yourself what advertising is People have given various answers to the question. For some time it was felt that advertising was a means of “keeping your name before all the consumers.” And some thought that advertising was “truth well told.” Now more and more people describe it this way: advertising is the paid, non-personal, and usually persuasive description of goods, services and ideas through various media.
All advertisements try to make people believe that the product, idea, or service advertised can do well to them. Advertisements exist everywhere.

W: Yeah, I go both ways. Sometimes I don’t really want to talk to the person, and just want to ask them one question. So it’s much easier for me just to text-message. If I call them, I’ll have to have a long conversation.
M: Yeah, I can see what you mean. But I get off the phone pretty quickly when I call. I’m not a big talker.
W: Yeah, that’s true. You don’t talk a lot.

W: Yeah, I think text-messaging actually is what you have to do with your age. People in college or university text-message a lot. But I asked my father if he would text messages, and guess what he said

Questions 11 through 13 are based on the following passage.
Southglen was founded nearly thirty years ago by people who believed that students learn best when they’re allowed to take responsibility for their own learning. The school is managed at weekly meetings. Anyone connected with the school—teachers, students, parents, kitchen staff, cleaners — can attend the meetings and anyone can make a proposal, but only teachers and students may vote. So you can see that decisions about the running of the school are very much up to the students. When our students are given the right to decide important issues, like how to spend the school budget, or whether to hire a new teacher, they take their responsibilities very seriously and are capable of making decisions for the good of the school as a whole. In many other ways, we’re just like other schools. We have a timetable and classes in a range of different subjects. However, it’s for the students to decide which subjects they’d like to study. We offer guidance, of course. We encourage everyone to try out a wide range of subjects at the beginning of their time here so they can work out where their talents and interests lie. Once they’ve made their choices, our students are expected to attend all lessons, and they ’ re given regular homework assignments. When students are not in class, they’ re expected to work on further projects connected with their studies or make a practical contribution to the school, for example taking care of the school gardens. Again, this is a system the students have worked out for themselves and are happy with.

11.What is the speaker mainly talking about

Questions 14 through 16 are based on the following passage.
In 2007, environmental scientist Catlin Powers was carrying out climate research when a local asked her why researchers were so interested in outdoor air pollution when indoor air pollution was such a serious problem. Through further research, Powers discovered that every year, around four million people globally were dying because of the smoke from the stoves they used indoors. Part of the problem was the fuel: animal waste and wood, which produce a lot of smoke. In addition, depending on these sources of fuel creates other problems: it means animal waste is no longer available to fertilise the soil and leads to the illegal cutting down of trees.
Powers immediately began trying to figure out ways to make cooking cleaner. She was introduced to Scot Frank and the two immediately began talking about ways to solve the problems of indoor air pollution.
They realized the solution lay in using the cleaner, more environmentally friendly energy of the sun. Having decided that solar power was the way to go, Frank and Powers, and engineer Amy Qian began working with university students in the Himalayas to collect feedback on the design features needed for a sun-powered cooker. Though some models of solar cooker had been introduced to the region by aid organizations, they weren’t easy to pack and move, and so weren’ t suitable for people who travel from place to place all the time. The team came up with a design that looks something like an umbrella or a satellite dish. When sunlight hits the reflective inner curve of the disc, it bounces off and can be focused onto the bottom of a pot or pan.
(Now listen again, please.)

14.What did Catlin Powers find through her research
15.According to Powers and Frank, what might be the solution to the problem
16.Which of the following is special about the cooker designed by Powers’team

M: Well, it all goes back to when I was a kid. When I was about six or seven, one of my cousins gave me a small china elephant for my birthday, and I liked it so much I decided to start collecting them, so it all just started from there, really.
W: So, you’ve been collecting ever since
M: Yeah, that’s right. It’s almost thirty years now. I know some people might think it’s strange that I didn’t grow out of it, but the more china elephants I bought, the more interested in them I got.
W: And how many have you got now
M: I’ve got over five thousand. It’s one of the biggest collections in the country, I think. I’m getting new ones all the time as well. I find them in second-hand shops, I buy them on the Internet and sometimes friends give me them as presents.
W: Where do you keep them all
M: Well, I’ve got a special room in my house where I’ve got them all on display. I’ve got shelves and shelves of them! Actually, one day I’d like to open my own china elephant museum. I’m sure a lot of people would come and see it.
W: You also run a club, don’t you How did that start
M: Well, back in the late 1980s, I just wanted to try to meet other collectors and find out more about the history of china elephants and about all the different kinds that exist around the world. I found out that there weren’t really any books or catalogues on the subject, so I started my own club. It has just grown and grown and now there are about 125 members. We meet up from time to time and we exchange elephants and things like that. It’ s great, and since we went online, collectors from all over the world have got in touch with us, which is great.

Questions 11 through 13 are based on the following passage.
Good evening! Now, I know many of you are excited about the idea of getting paid to travel the world and see the sights. But remember, traveling isn’t all fun and games. It is hard work too. I remember when I was in Egypt to look at the pyramids. Now, of course they are fascinating — they are over 4,000 years old — but remember, Egypt is mostly desert and the temperature is often over forty-five degrees! So, the weather can be a problem.
And several years later, I was traveling down the Yangtze River in China with some photographers, and we constantly had engine trouble with our boat, so we couldn’t steer along the 6,380-kilometer river. Instead, we had to abandon our journey after just 2, 150 kilometers, which was a major disappointment.
The last journey I want to tell you about was the most rewarding. We went to Angel Falls, the tallest waterfall in the world. We backpacked for seventeen days through the jungles of Venezuela to get there. But when they finally came into view, with their breathtaking drop of 807 meters, it was incredible ! So, remember, being a travel writer may sound like an amazing career, and it is certainly rewarding, but you have to be prepared for every possibility !

Questions 14 through 16 are based on the following report.
Today, I would like to talk about the new concept of fitness. What exactly is fitness How do you know whether you are fit Under the Old Fitness, this question is answered by taking a few tests and comparing your performance to the“standard”. The New Fitness leaves every individual to arrive at his or her own answer, based on individual needs, personal goals and different lifestyles.
The New Fitness definition is more flexible: you are fit if you can work effectively all at your normal task; if you have enough energy left at the day’s end to invest in leisure activities; and if you have the strength to deal with an unexpected physical emergency — running a block to catch a bus, for instance, or rearrange all your furniture.
By this definition, a healthy, physically fit accountant would not be in the same shape as a healthy, physically fit athlete. But there’s no need to be.
Fitness can be divided into three basic factors: endurance, strength and flexibility. Of the three, endurance is the factor that is most often regarded as the key indicator of fitness. And the exercises which build endurance have the greatest effect on your overall health. The exercises which can provide you with training effect include jogging, swimming, bicycling, walking, rowing, rope-skipping, hiking, cross-country skiing and vigorous games of baseball, handball and soccer.

M: Yes, and it is really convenient to take a ride-share bike. They are available everywhere.
W: Yes. People can unlock the shared bikes by simply using their smartphones. The bikes are equipped with GPS and can be left anywhere in public for the next user. They also provide an effective solution to the “last mile” problem.
M: But there is not always positive feedback from customers.
W: What do you mean
M: There is a rising number of traffic accidents involving children trying out the ride-share bikes out of curiosity.
W: That’s true. But shared-bike companies like OfO are trying to make some improvements. It redesigned its bicycles, equipping them with a rear brake box that increases travel safety and stability.
M: There are still other problems, such as illegal parking, deliberate damage and theft.
W: How to maintain them is also a tough question. Supervision should be strengthened and
relevant laws should be issued. Citizen quality should be enhanced and culture of sharing should be cultivated. Anyway, every citizen should also do their part, right

Q: What does the man mean
2.W: I’m sure you don’t need me to tell you this, but wouldn’t it be a good idea to stop smoking
M: I’m sorry. I just can’t resist it, especially when I’m searching for new ideas.
Q: What is the man’s problem
3.W: In my daily life I take care in various ways of my body so as not to damage my health. M: That’s quite right, but lacking perseverance leads to nothing achieved.

Directions: In Section B, you will hear several longer conversation(s) and short passage(s), and you will be asked several questions on each of the conversation(s) and the passage(s). The conversation(s) and the passage(s) will be read twice, but the questions will be spoken only once. When you hear a question, read the four possible answers on your paper and decide which one would be the best answer to the question you have heard.
Questions 11 through 13 are based on the following passage.
When I was 13, I had a dog called Newton. He was a mix between Australia kelpie and dingo, and spent most of his time in our backyard.
He was constantly at the glass sliding doors, longing to go outside; most often because he could see wild pigeons rested proudly on our tall fence. We would try to ignore him until his barking continuously, then we’d let him out.
As soon as the door opened he was out like a shot, dashing crazily for the fence, barking until the birds flew off. Of course Newton couldn’t hurt a fly; he was simply showing off his bravery by being able to frighten the birds.
Late one afternoon in the summer holiday, as I was heading outside to feed him, I stopped short at the door. There he was, lying lazily in the garden --- surrounded by wild pigeons, enjoying his food sprinkled in the grass.
One of them hopped closer and Newton stretched, barely paying any notice to the careless bird.
When I opened the door, he looked over at me and panicked, barking at the birds until they flew out of the garden.
(Now listen again, please.)
Questions:
11.What did the wild pigeon always rest
12.What did the writer see before stepping into the garden to feed Newton
13.Why did the dog enjoy barking at the pigeons
14.Questions 14 through 16 are based on the following passage.
Having telephone conversations in a second language can be very stressful. If you don’t know what to say, it is very common to feel nervous in any conversation. This is true even when speaking in your native tongue. One of the main reasons people get nervous is that they aren’t prepared and know they might make mistakes during the conversation.
To improve confidence on the phone you must learn what to say. The first thing you should do to improve your telephone communication ability is to start out small by learning simple vocabulary and phrases. Start by knowing different greetings. It is so easy when learning English to try to do too much too soon and then get frustrated with not being able to speak as you had imagined. You have to start small, gradually developing skills and slowly working up to something more difficult.
Relax and enjoy yourself as well. Everyone knows learning a language can be frustrating! Don’t worry if you make mistakes. Native speakers of English understand that you won’t say everything the exact same way that they would. You shouldn’t feel that you can’t make any mistakes, no one expects you to be perfect.
In the following examples on English telephone conversations, we will give many examples of sentences and phrases you should know. From the start until the end of a telephone conversation we will go over everything all the way from greetings to goodbyes.
(Now listen again, please.)
Questions:
14.Why do people probably get nervous when having telephone conversation
15.What can help a person obtain confidence on the phone
16.What is the speech going to talk about the next
Questions 17 through 20 are based on the following conversation.

M: Same here, Nancy. It has been a long time since I last saw you.
W: Yes, the last time we saw each other was New Year’s Eve. How are you doing
M: I am doing OK. It would be better if I have a new job right now.
W: You are looking for a new job Why
M: I already finished my studies and graduated last week. Now, I want to get a job in the Finance field.
Payroll is not exactly Finance.
W: How long have you been looking for a new job
M: I just started this week.
W: Didn’t you have any interviews with those firms that came to our campus last month I believe quite a few companies came to recruit students for their Finance departments.
M: I could only get one interview with Fidelity Company because of my heavy work schedule. A month has already gone by, and I have not heard from them. I guess I did not make it.
W: Don’t worry, John. You always did well in school. I know your good grades will help you get a job soon. Besides, the job market is pretty good right now, and all companies need financial analysts. By the way, did you mail your resume to a lot of companies
M: I have sent it to a dozen companies already. In addition, I do look closely at the employment ads listed in the newspaper every day.
W: Are there a lot of openings
M: Quite a few. Some of them require a certain amount of experience and others are willing to train.
W: My friends told me that it helps to do some homework before you go to an interview. You need to know the company well—what kind of business is it in What types of products does it sell How is it doing lately
M: Yes, I know. I am doing some research on companies that I want to work for. I want to be ready whenever they call me in for an interview.
W: Good! It seems that you are well prepared for your job search. I am sure you will find a good job in no time.

In the picture, the tiger is hugging the tree, but it’s actually trying to leave its smell as a way of communicating with other tigers. Another endangered animal, a kind of frog, won the Animal Behavior prize. Jim Carson said he walked for four hours in the Andes Mountains, hoping for some good pictures. In the middle of a rainstorm, he captured this picture of the frog eating a spider. Gio Santos won the Animal Portrait prize with his picture of a kind of monkey. That kind of monkeys are known for their big noses. They are found on the Pacific islands. Though this animal looks completely at peace, monkeys of this kind are often hunted, which has left them endangered, too. 10-year-old Kiren Nadar of India won Young Wildlife Photographer of the year. His image shows a spider upside down in a web, against the bright colors of a passing three-wheeled motor car in the background. Kiren loves to photograph the creatures that live in the streets and parks near his home.

In the smart wallet, there is an alarm, a GPS tracker, and even a camera. If your phone and wallet become separated, the alarm will warn you so that you don’t leave it behind. And if your wallet is lost or stolen, the GPS tracker can help you reach it.
But perhaps the most unusual feature of Volterman is the built-in front-facing camera. If someone dares to open your wallet without your permission, the little camera will take a picture and send it to your mobile phone. Once your wallet is stolen, you will find it easily by receiving the picture of the thief.
Volterman can store up to 10 cards. The thin and light wallet perfectly fits in your pocket and is well-suited for everyday carry. Volterman will help in many annoying situations that can happen to anyone. It can charge your smartphone and serve as a backup or your media.

Questions 17 through 20 are based on the following conversation.
W: In today’s programme, we are happy to have experienced travel writer, Tim Cole, with us. Tim is going to give us some advice on travel. Welcome, Tim. So, what’s the first thing you want to tell us
M: Well, it’s too easy for people to believe everything they read in guidebooks. Actually, following the guidebooks too closely can result in the most awkward situations.
W: For example
M: I’ll never forget the night I arrived in Sydney a couple of years ago. I had booked a budget hotel, but I turned up at a video game room instead when I followed the address on the guidebook. I was so exhausted at that time.
W: That was truly terrible. What else do you want to tell our listeners
M: Honestly, travelers trust their guidebooks too much and don’t bother to research even the most basic facts before they set off. Some guidebooks are only updated every couple of years, so it's no wonder many things have changed by the time you get there. The most important thing when choosing a guidebook is to check the publication date; if it's not within the last twelve months, don’t buy it.
W: That’ll definitely help our listeners. Can you tell us more about that
M: Most books include unnecessary information– like photos of famous places, for example. We already know what the Eiffel tower looks like! Why not include more background information instead
W: That sounds quite reasonable. Just before the end of the programme, our listeners would like you to share your travel experience.
M: I experienced what is called Twitter tourism on my trip to Hawaii. Instead of using a guidebook, I decided to rely on the advice of the locals and visitors alike – and let them choose what I should visit, where I should stay and what I should eat. It actually worked out really well. Without the Twitter travel tips I'd never have had a ten-kilometer boating adventure along the coast and stayed for a night time in a huge cave.
(Listen again, please.)
Questions:
17.What happened when Tim used a guidebook in Australia
18.What does Tim say about the information in the guidebooks
19.Why does Tim like Twitter tourism
20.What does Tim mainly tell us 2022年上海市高三英语一模真题专项训练之听力

Questions 11 through 13 are based on the following passage.
Coffee grounds are regarded as waste because they are usually thrown away after the coffee is made. But the German company Kaffeeform combines dried coffee grounds and other materials to create coffee cups that are not only dishwasher-safe, but even smell a bit like coffee.
For every cup of coffee people drink, about two tablespoons of grounds are produced. Sure, some of those coffee grounds are recycled as fertilizer, but most of them end up at landfills. Fortunately, A German product designer Julian Lechner came up with a new and sustainable way of recycling coffee grounds – turning them into cups.
Lechner and his team tried mixing coffee grounds with a lot of different things, even sugar. But the mixture just couldn’t become strong enough. The key point was to make the material durable. Finally, they came up with a mixture of coffee grounds and some other ingredients and the cup took shape.
Their coffee cups are now present in ten shops across Europe, and as it still takes time to produce the coffee ground mixture,the company can hardly keep up with demand. Its success all happened through word of mouth. A lot of individuals, cafes and museums across the world have placed orders.

Questions:
11.What is the feature of the coffee cup
12.What is the difficulty for Lechner when creating the cup

Questions 14 through 16 are based on the following passage.
Kathy McCoy and her husband, Bob Stover retired to Arizona from their home in California six years ago. It’s a common move for US seniors to relocate somewhere in retirement. Although it is not commercially busy, their city in Arizona is a perfect “snowbird” destination for its warm winter. Many people spend winters there but live elsewhere during other seasons. However, community events only center around those temporary residents. Even public transport service is barely available during off seasons. Let alone other public facilities. If they had to do it over again, McCoy and Stover might have chosen to stay in California.
In the US, three out of five Americans hope to spend their retirement in another city or state. But, before you join them, you should thoroughly research your destination to make sure it meets all your needs. Spending a week somewhere every winter does not make you an expert. What is most important for a relocating senior is to spend time visiting your chosen place extensively throughout the year, including the quiet months. You need to understand all the factors that might affect you, so you don’t end up moving to a location that turns out to be dangerous, unsuitable or with little support as you age. Things like healthcare and residence are important. And for those who are crossing borders, special attention should be paid to studying the tax rules.
(Now listen again, please.)
Questions:
14.What problem did McCoy and Stover meet in their city of Arizona
15.What is vital for a relocating senior
16.What deserves special attention if a senior wants to move to a foreign country?
Questions 17 through 20 are based on the following conversation.
W: Hey, Jack. You look relaxed. Isn’t there a geography test on Friday
M: It’s an open book test. You know, I have nothing to prepare.
W: I am afraid you don’t know what an open book test really is.
M: Isn’t it searching the textbook for all the answers
W: It’s quite different. The pressure from an open book test can be huge.
M: Really
W: Most often, the questions for an open book test will ask you to explain, evaluate, or compare information from your textbook. For instance, describe the effects of rain-bearing winds on the people of northern India.
M: It’s quite difficult.
W: It’s a typical open book question. When you see such questions, it’s impossible to scan your book to find a statement that summarizes the topic for you. Most likely, the question requires you to understand different concepts that force you to read the entire chapter.
M: It’s even harder than a closed book test.
W: Besides, you will not have enough time to locate and organize information to answer such questions well. I always regard this as the most difficult part of an open book test.
M: It’s a sore point for me too. So how on earth should I prepare then.
W: You should know where to find important information in the book. Though you don’t have to recite everything, making your own outline can be helpful. And if the teacher allows it, mark your book with removable tags where you notice important ideas. But be sure to ask your teacher first!
M: Wow, it’s a lot of work and I should take action now.
W: Yeah, I believe you should.

Community service is an important part of education here at our university. 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’d 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.
Professor Green will act as 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 are sure to gain valuable experience at the same time. It looks good on your résumé, too — showing that you ’ ve had experience with children and that you care about your community. If you’ d like to sign up, or if you have any questions, stop by professor Green’s office this week.

Questions 14 through 16 are based on the following passage.
Increasingly, over the past ten years, people — especially young people — have become aware of the need to change their eating habits, because much of the food they eat, particularly processed foods, is not good for the health. Consequently, there has been a growing interest in natural foods: foods which do not contain chemical additives and which have not been affected by chemical fertilizers widely used in farming today.
Natural foods, for example, are vegetables, fruit and grain which have been grown in soil that is rich in organic matters. In simple terms, this means that the soil has been enriched by unused vegetable matter, which provides it with essential vitamins and minerals. This in itself is a natural process compared with the use of chemicals and fertilizers, the main purpose of which is to increase the amount — but not the quality — of foods grown in commercial farming areas. Natural foods also include animals which have been allowed to feed and move freely in healthy pare this with what happens in the mass production of animals like chickens: there are battery farms, for example, where thousands of chickens live crowded together in one building and are fed on food which is little better than rubbish. Chickens kept in this way are not only tasteless as food; they also produce eggs which lack important vitamins.

15.Which of the following statements is TRUE of natural foods
16.What can be inferred about chickens on battery farms according to the passage

M: Well, Shirley, now that we’ve seen the three apartments, which one do you like best

M: Neither did I. Let’s cross that one off. That leaves the 72nd Street one and the 80th Street one.
W: The one on the 80th Street has a better view, and a very cheerful kitchen.
M: Yes, and I like the carpeting in the hall. It was clean. But there was no good place to put a desk.
W: That’s true. You should always put it in a corner of the living room, but then you wouldn’t have any privacy, and the bedroom was too small.
M: Right. And I do need to be able to leave my work out on the desk without having it looked into by visitors.
W: Oh, Brad, we don’t have that kind of visitors! But I do agree the desk shouldn’t be in the living room. It is a constant reminder of unfinished work. What about the 72nd Street apartment It has a dining area. We could eat in the kitchen, and put the desk in the dining area. It’s more private there.
M: Yes, that sounds OK. Only, what I didn’t like about that place was the west window. It gets quite hot in the late afternoon with the sun beating down on the window.
W: Didn’t you notice the air conditioner M: No. Was there one
W: Yes. And we could improve on the curtains, too.
M: That place did have the best parking facilities of the three.
W: Yes. I think that apartment is best for your needs. There’ s good parking, and there’s a semi-private area for your desk. That takes care of the daily activities.
M: OK. Let’s take that one.

17.Why did Brad and Shirley give up the apartment on the 68th Street

Questions 11 through 13 are based on the following passage.
Lifvs is a chain of Swedish grocery stores. The stores aren’t supermarkets. They’ re closer to convenience stores in size. The chain began in 2018 with a goal of bringing shops to small towns in remote areas. They aimed to put stores in places that were “too small” to have any. Grocery stores in these areas were losing more money than they were making. Lifvs solves this problem by removing the employees.
At Lifvs, you open the store door with an app on a smartphone. The app is also connected to BankID, a system which is used by all of Sweden ’ s banks. Instead of paying a store worker, customers scan items with their smartphone and then carry them home. Because the app requires identification, shoplifting is rare.
In the past year, the Lifvs system was especially helpful. Lifvs’ limited contact model is ideal in the time of COVID-19. Similar stores have sprung up all around the world. What do you think of the Lifvs’ model Would you miss chatting with employees Or do you prefer to be left alone to shop in peace

Questions 14 through 16 are based on the following passage.
A quick-thinking 9-year-old in Brockton, Massachusetts, is being credited with saving her family after her parents were overcome by carbon monoxide, the poisonous colorless gas without a smell.
Jayline Barbosa was in bed on October 28 when she heard her dad faintly calling for help. She ran to her parents’ bedroom and found that her dad and mom had lost consciousness. She grabbed her dad’s phone to call 911. The iPhone was locked, but she was able to hold it up to his face to unlock it using facial ID. She then took her 7-year-old sister out to get help from a neighbor.
The family had been without power for about three days after the storm swept through the area and had borrowed a generator for their home. They set the generator up near the back door outside their home and only ran it for a few minutes before shutting it down because it was noisy. Then they unplugged everything from it and brought it into the house for safekeeping. They thought it was a safe place, but now they realize it was too close to the house.
When rescuers found the generator in the house, they detected dangerously high levels of carbon monoxide in the house. All the people from the house were immediately taken to the hospital for treatment. Fortunately Jayline and her younger sister weren’t really affected by the gas, and her parents are doing better now.

Questions 17 through 20 are based on the following conversation.
M: I have really been looking forward to seeing Marvel’s new movie.
W: We’d have to go to a theater to see it, right I know the critics gave it good reviews, but I was hoping to watch a movie at home. How about just streaming a different Marvel movie tonight
M: What No. I want to see the most current one. And we need to get out of the house.
W: I’d like to stay home tonight. We’ve been out of the house all week.
M: But that was just to go to work.
W: Well, it still counts as getting out of the house!
M: I’ve heard the special effects in the film are great. And to really get the full effect, you have to see the film on the silver screen.
W: But it’ s more relaxing at home and I can lie down while I watch something. I’ m kind of exhausted, you know.
M: Once we get to the theater, you’ll come alive.
W: I doubt it. We have more freedom at home, too. We can pause the movie and get snacks or use the bathroom without missing anything.
M: But only on a big screen can you see all the tiny details you might miss on a TV screen. And the sound surrounds you and makes you feel like you’re right in the scene.
W: Those are good points, but our sound board helps a lot with that feeling.
M: Yes, but it’s not the same. It is so much easier to escape the realism of one’s life. It helps you become part of the movie’s fantasy world for a while.
W: Well, you can’t stay in that world when people’s phones light up when they check them.
M: Occasionally that happens, and it is annoying, but it’ll do us good to get out.
W: OK, I guess... but I hope this time there won’t be a tall guy sitting in front of me.
