我是一名电脑程序员。我的难处是因为我母亲。她现在已经70 多岁,确实需要人顾,因为我父亲在10多年前因车祸死亡。然而她住在乡下,那里没有我可以做的工作,没有待遇好的工作。如果我做些其他工作,或许做秘书或邮局工作人员,那就意味着我们不得不接受工资大幅地下降。所以,我不知道如何才好。

如果移民归化局认为,它能够通过对大学生进行重点管理,大幅度地减少在美国的恐怖主义活动,我们大家都应 为此担心。
在美国,现在大多数人进入工作场所、乘飞机或进入公共大楼,包括我所在大学的图书馆,已经需要出示身份证。然而,倡导民权的团体和少数民族团体反对一切非美国公民必须随身携带身份证的规定,他们结成联盟,推翻了立法的最初几稿中关于实施全国统一身份证的主张。在某种程度上,他们是有道理的。
我们必须面对这一事实,并因认识到这一事实而获益,即每一个人驾车、乘飞机、或进入许多私人大楼或公共大楼,都必须出示有照片的身份证,通常是驾驶执照或护照。这意味着,实际上所有美国人早就必须持有事实上全国通用的身份证。
对人们进行甄别,在我们这儿早就是例行公事。只要好好使用大家已持有的全国通用身份证,并加以改进,就可以增强安全,避免歧视,而不必在另一个系统花上数百万美元。

SECTION 1:LISTENING TEST
Part A: Spot Dictation
Directions:In this part of the test, you will hear a passage and read the same passage with blanks in it. Fill in each of the blanks with the word you have heard on the tape. Write your answer in the corresponding space in your ANSWER BOOKLET. Remember you will hear the passage ONLY ONCE. Now let's begin Part A with Spot Dictation.
(Woman) As long as we are in a relationship, there is the potential for lasting happiness as well as for serious conflict. This applies at work, in the classroom, and at home. The simple fact is that relationships are not always smooth sailing.Conflict can lead to anger,hostility,and further conflicts.On the other hand,it can be used as a powerful opportunity for solving problems.
For example, you can handle conflict by denying that the problem exists, smoothing it over, or trying to overpower the other person. These, of course, will lead to win or lose situations. But when you resolve conflict through collaboration and compromise, you can achieve win- win situations. In today's lecture, I shall outline a few steps on how to transform a conflict into a solution in which both parties win.
First, state the problem. Explain the problem to the other party. You should clearly define the conflict, it's hard to fix something before both of you agree on what is broken.
Second, understand all points of view. Ste aside your own opinions for a moment and take the time to understand the other points of view. When people feel that they have been heard, they're often more willing to listen.
Third, brainstorm solutions. Dream up as many solutions as you can and evaluate them one by one. This step will require time and honesty. Talk about which solutions will work and how difficult they will be to implement. Your solutions need to be acceptable by both parties, so you should be prepared to make compromise. Later, you will need to review the effectiveness of the accepted solution. If it does not work, be open to making changes or be ready to bring about a new solution.
Finally, implement.When you both have agreed on a solution, decide who is going to do what by when. They keep your agreements.
Relationships change for better or for worse.But if you are honest,patient and quite flexible in seeking a resolution for the conflict, your painstaking efforts will certainly pay off.

Questions 15 to 18 are based on the following talk.
(Woman) In the United Kingdom, the Open University has already been the symbol and pride of further education in Britain.Its history can trace as far as the early 60's of the last century. In 1963 the leader of the Labour Party made a speech explaining plans for a “university of the air”.I was an educational system which would make use of television, radio and correspondence courses. At first many people thought that the plan was unrealistic and they laughed at the idea. However, it was to become part of the Labour Party s programme, that is, to give educational opportunity to those people who,for one reason or another,had not had a chance to receive further education.By August 1970 the Open University, as it is now called, had received 40,000 applications.But only 25,000 could be accepted for the first four‘foundation’courses offered that year. And the University had to add a fifth course to cater for the increasing number and demand of candidates.
In January 1971, the first teaching programmes appeared on the air and screen, with clerks, farm workers, housewives, teachers, policemen and many others as students. The Open University offered carefully- prepared correspondence units to its students and gave additional necessary equipment for a “mini”home laboratory to its science students. A number of study centers have been set up all over the country so that students can attend lectures once a week. Once a year the students are invited to spend a week or so at one of the university's summer schools. Although some critics complain of the cost the availability of the subj ects and the lack method of spreading further education in Britain.
Question No.15. According to the talk, at what time were the first Open University programmes put on the air?
Question No.16. Which of the following are NOT given by the Open University?
Question No.17. What is one of the advantages of the Open University?
Question No.18. For what purpose were the study centers set up?
Questions 19 to 22 are based on the following conversation.
(Man) What did you say you were going to take up as a career?
(Woman) Law. Actually, I ve already started. I began my studies at the Bartlett Law School of the Festoon University last October.
(Man) What are you going to do when you finish?
(Woman) Oh, I shall go back home and practice there. I may start with some clerical work, but eventually I'm going to set up my own law office. There's a great deal of scope for law years or solicitors in my country and a lot of useful work to be done there people get married and then divorced, people begin to buy their own houses, people feel mistreated by the community or the authority. They need law years, do they?
(Man) What made you decide to take up law as a career?
(Woman) Well, I was good at making a speech at school and I think I had a certain feeling for communication and persuasion. My teachers encouraged me and said I had a bent for law or the like. I suppose my personal qualities made me choose law, and not art or architecture, for instance. Of course, in my country lawyers are respected and well paid. And they are in great demand.
(Man) But, will you find it difficult to become recognized in your own country?
(Woman) To a certain extent, yes.But I expect that a woman lawyer alxo9 has some advantages in the court.Especially for some kinds of cases,for example,if my client is a woman who claims certain rights from her divorced husband, a woman lawyer can understand better and do a better job.
(Man) But why have you chosen America for your studies, why not some other country?
(Woman) Ah well, there are lots of reasons. But I'm not sorry because you've got some of the best law schools in the world.
Question No. 19. What is the woman?
Question No. 20. For what reason does the woman choose law as her career?
Question No. 21. According to the woman, what advantage does a woman lawyer have in the court?
Question No. 22. Why does the woman go to an American university for her studies?
Questions 23 to 26 are based on the following talk.
(Man) Good morning.I've been interested to read your last week's composition assignments on the Englishman's obsession with the weather,which is a characteristic noted with amusement and surprise by so many of our visitors from abroad. It's true that talking about the weather is a staple topic of conversation in this country, but as a native speaker and an expert on socio-linguistics,I an of the opinion that the reasons for this practice are not only climatic but also social.
Greeting people with expressions such as “Lovely day, isn t it?” or “What terrible weather we re having, aren t we?” is our way of being friendly or starting a conversation. It may have very little to do with the state of the weather as such when the conversation starts. As a matter of fact, we expect the other person to say “Yes, it is.” or “Yes, we are.” in the same way that we expect a person to say“Hullo!”when we say“Hullo!” to greet him or her.However,this distinctive social convention can be very puzzling to foreigners.
Of course,this way of making conversation is closely related to the variability of the weather in this country. There must be few places in the world where the weather changes quite so much from day to day. If you drive a car on one of our motorways, you may find yourself in the sunshine, mist, rain, snow or even storms within the same day. No wonder we take a daily interest in it! But I do think we are much too fond of running down our own climate, which is not half as had as some people make out. Our obsession is not so much with talking about the weather as with speaking ill of it. It may as well be talking for talking s sake.
Question No.23. According to the talk, what is a typical Englishman obsessed with?
Question No.24. To whom is the man addressing his speech?
Question No.25. Why does the Englishman say, “Lovely day, isn t it?”
Question No.26. Which of the following can be concluded from the talk?
Questions 27 to 30 are based on the following conversation.
(Man) Mrs. Brown, I understand that you are very concerned about the housing situation in this country.
(Woman) Indeed I am. The government itself admits that there are more than two million houses which ought to be pulled down at once. It also admits that there are another two and half million in such a shocking state that it would be a waste of money to repair them.
(Man) What do you mean by “shocking state”?
(Woman) I mean houses that are in such a bad condition that they are permanently damp, or houses where you ll find as four families sharing one tap and one toilet. (Man) What you are saying, in effect, Mrs. Brown, is that the housing in this country isn't worthy of a welfare state!
(Woman) Exactly! According to government figures there are about 20,000 homeless people in this country, but thousands more living in such terrible conditions that they ought to be classed as homeless. The figures can be as high as over 200,000. it isn't that these people can't afford a reasonable rent. Therejust aren't enough houses.
(Man) Whom do you blame?
(Woman) The government, for not providing enough money, and the district councils for not spending properly what there is.
(Man) What about the local housing committees? Many of them have been doing wonderful work during the past decade.
(Woman) I agree, but that doesn't excuse the local councils that are inefficient and don't take enough interest. Don't you think it is shocking that in our modern civilization there are still families who have nowhere to live? Do you think it's right that whole families should have to sleep in the ruins of empty buildings or under bridges or in railway station waiting- rooms?
(Man) But Surely there are excellent hostels where they can go.
(Woman) In some cities and towns,perhaps,but things are very different in many of our midland and northern industrial cities,and in parts of the Metropolis. Even where there are;oases, some of the state- run homes for the homeless are less comfortable than prisons. In any case, my point is that we shouldn't need so many hostels for homeless families because there shouldn't be any homeless families!
(Man) Mrs. Brown, I think many people would say that you are exaggerating and drawing attention to the worst housing conditions instead of looking at the situation as a whole. Would you agree that you belong to a “pressure group” which is trying to bring pressure on the government to do something about the housing problem?
(Woman) If that s what belonging to a pressure group means, the answer is “yes”! But I'm not exaggerating. Housing is the most serious problem of our welfare state. If it weren't, would we hear so much about that excellent charity organization, Shelter, which does such wonderful work in finding homes for the homeless?
Question No.27. According to the government figures, how many people are homeless?
Question No.28. Whom does the woman blame for the “shocking” housing situation?
Question No.29. According to the woman, why are there so many homeless families?
Question No.30. What is “Shelter”, as is mentioned at the end of the conversation?

Passage 1
(Woman) I am a computer programmer. My problem is with my mother. She is now well over 70 and she really needs help,as my father died of a car accident more than ten years ago. But where she lives,in the countryside, there's no work available for me, no job with a decent pay. If I work there as something else, perhaps as a secretary or a post- office clerk, it means we have to take a drastic drop in salary. So I don't really know what to do.
Passage 2
(Man) In Britain today, almost half of the houses are owned by the people who live in them. About one third are owned by the local authorities, and the rest are rented from private owners. A typical rent for a two- bed roomed house is about 300a month. If people want to buy their own house, they can borrow from the banks up to 90 per cent of the cost of that house. But large mortgages may take 20 to 30 years to pay off.
