高三听说测试（七）
Part A Reading Aloud
In this part, you are required to watch a video and read after the speaker in the video.
A desert in Namibia … These eggs are very big. The shell is so strong the mother often helps the chicks out. The biggest advantage is that both parents look after the eggs. It’s a marriage of necessity, one that goes back to hungry mothers. Birds need to eat more than cold-blooded animals. If the father wasn’t here, the mother would either starve or leave. So he looks after the eggs. The eggs are then safe. To be even safer, some of them lay eggs in the dominant pair’s nest, almost like cuckoos. The top couple doesn’t object.

Part A 略
Part B
W: How did you become interested in diving, Leo?
M: When I was young, my parents lived in Honduras, Central America. I did my first serious dive when I was ten with my mother and father. I can still remember it now. My parents had an argument about it. My mother thought I was too young. My father said I was old enough.
W: Have you got any diving qualifications?
M: Yes. When I was 18, I took a diving examination and became a professional diver. The examiner said I was born to be a diver.
(1) 学生问：你是从哪里得知潜水警察这个职业的？Where did you learn about police diver?
录音答：While I was at university, I saw an advertisement by the police in a newspaper. I applied and I got an interview. The interviewer was a police diver, and we discussed our experiences. I knew then that I wanted to be a police diver. I trained as a policeman first, and then I did a special training course to become a police diver. It was really difficult.
(2) 学生问：作为潜水警察你都做些什么呢？What do you do as a police diver?
录音答：People usually think police divers have to look for bodies all the time. It isn’t true! My job is never the same, and I love the excitement. We examine plane crashes, look in rivers for knives or guns, and we often have to rescue people at sea.
(3) 学生问：做这个工作你需要具备什么素质？What qualities do you need in your work?
录音答：Well, you need to be an excellent swimmer, of course, and you have to be physically strong — diving in English rivers and canals is not like diving in the Caribbean Sea — it can be very cold, very dark and very smelly.
(1) 录音问：What did Leo do when he was ten?
学生答：He dived for the first time.
(2) 录音问：When did Leo become a professional diver?
学生答：When he was 18.
(3) 录音问：Where did Leo see the advertisement by the police?
学生答：In the newspaper.
(4) 录音问：What do people think police divers do?
学生答：Look for bodies all the time.
(5) 录音问：What does Leo think of diving in the English rivers?
学生答：It can be very cold, very dark and very smelly.
Part C
The First Time I was in Britain
Last year I went abroad for the first time — to Britain. In Brazil, when we think of Britain, we often think of pubs as typical places, so I decided to find one. It wasn’t difficult. As I was walking along the street in Notting Hill, I found a traditional pub selling home-made food and traditional English beer. I went inside and sat down at a table. I waited for a few minutes, but nobody came to serve me. While I was waiting, I noticed that there wasn’t any table service and people went to the bar themselves. I went and asked for a cup of tea. The barman filled a small pot with hot water, put a tea bag in it, and then gave the pot and a cup to me. I asked for some milk and sugar and he pointed to a small table in a corner of the room. I picked up the pot and the cup, and then went to get the milk and sugar.
Suddenly I heard the barman shouting “Excuse me. Excuse me!” I turned to look at him, and he said, “That’s one pound fifty, please!” Then I understood that you have to pay when you get your drink. I felt really stupid, but I’ll know what to do if I go there again.
