Section A
News Report One
A JetBlue Airlines flight from West Palm Beach to New York City was forced to turn around and land Sundaymorning after the plane struck a bird. The flight from Palm Beach International Airport to LaGuardia Airport turned around just minutes after takeoff following the strike.
No injuries were reported on the plane, and the flight took off once again 7.5 hours after the first attempt.“It was like a split second of panic…that resulted in this nervous reaction on the plane,”said passenger Brian Healy.“There was total quiet, and then there was relief when the plane came to a stop.”An email from JetBlue read,“Our team is working to accommodate customers on later flights.”
1. What do we learn about the JetBlue Airlines flight from the news report?
2. How did the passengers feel when the plane came to a stop, according to Brian Healy?
News Report Two
A deadly snake, which had finally been tracked down after escaping a zoo, has slipped away for the second time. The poisonous snake forced the closure of the attraction last week when staff noticed the disappearance.
After six days of desperate searching, he was eventually found and placed in a supposedly secure area.But it seems the animal is no fan of the zoo, because yet again he is out on the loose.The snake is a relative newcomer to the zoo but has already been frustrating its staff. The staff believe he squeezed himself out of a gap located around new energy-saving bulbs installed inside the snake house. He was only found the first time around because staff brought in a special machine to trace him inside a wall opening.
This kind of snake is one of the most deadly and poisonous in the wild, and they can range from 3 to 5 meters in length.
3. What do we learn about the deadly snake from the news report?
4. How have the zoo staff been feeling about the snake?
News Report Three
Electric bikes have been the craze in down town Jacksonville since they were first introduced earlier this month as a one-year pilot program.But they're leading to safety concerns, mainly at night when some riders don't follow the rules of the road.
As the night goes on, groups of riders are often seen traveling in just about every di rection in the streets and on pedestrian paths. That is increasing the probability of dangerous accidents.
Electric bike riders have to follow all the same rules as you would if you were in an automobile. That meansno running red lights or traveling in the opposite direction of traffic on one-way streets.
City Council Member Anna Cumber was instrumental in introducing the electric bikes to Jacksonville as a way tobring new life into downtown. And she's aware of the concerns. Cumber said,“People can have fun, but both drivers and riders are responsible for paying attention while on the road. And never assume the driver is going to stop or see you.”
5. What do we learn from the news report about the introduction of electric bikes into Jacksonville?
6. What are electric bike riders supposed to do?
7. Why did City Council member Anna Cumber advocate the introduction of electric bikes into Jacksonville?
Section B
Conversation One
M: What's the best way to teach children how to save and spend their money?
W: You should make money a regular topic of discussion. It's best to start young, so it's instinctive ra ther than a scary subject.
M: In our family, we talk openly about things like the budget for holidays, how tax es reduce your income, and how to shop around for the best deals.
W: Indeed.It's also essential to make money real for children through practical examples. Working out how much we save using discount pizza coupons, for example, is much more re levant than abstract sums.
M:We also give our kids pocket money, and the amount they get is linked to chores, such as putting the bins out and emptying the dishwasher.
W:We do that too, and it's paid according to their age. Two pounds for each year so they can see some progression.
M: Teaching them to save is important. We opened a savings account when they were young. After birthdays and Christmas, they would go to the branch and deposit their gift money.
W: Oh, I hadn't considered doing that. In our house, we have transparent money boxes for them to put small change in,so they can see their savings grow.
M: When the time is right,I'll start talking to our children about investing and show them how the money saved for their further education has grown.
W:I am always talking to my elder daughter about the importance of saving into a pension.She's just started a part-time job and was thinking of not contributing to her pension. Luckily, I managed to persuade her otherwise.
M: Yes, it's such an important lesson to learn.
8. What should we do with the topic of money, according to the woman?
9. How does the woman say money can be made real for children?
10. What is the common practice between the man and the woman?
11. What is the woman always talking about to her el der daughter?
Conversation Two
W: Welcome to Books in Review.Our guest today is John Banks, the author of the best selling new book,Rewarding Success.
M: Glad to be here, Jane.
W: Your book has sold 2m illion copies, but before we discuss why it's getting so much attention, let's talk about your background. You're an economist and spent two decades teaching at universities?
M:I spent 25 years as a professor, actually. And then, for the last 10 years,I've worked as a political consultant,advising politicians at the national level about problems in our country.
W: You discuss three of those problems in the book, improving public education, reducing our nation's healthcare burden, and increasing personal savings.But your ideas about education are the most controversial.
M: Absolutely. A lot of people think I'm trying to punish students who aren't doing well,when actually my goal is to give all students more incentive to succeed.
W: I'm not sure I agree with you. Your proposal to pay cash rewards to students who get good grades is a particular problem. What about students who don't get good grades? It seems like you're blaming them for not succeeding.when poor performance in school isn't a child's fault.
M: But my proposal is not just to reward students with good grades, but also students who show improvements.
W: Okay, another criticism of the plan is the cash rewards themselves. Where will the money come from?
M: If students do better, we'll spend less on schooling. So, in the end, the rewards will pay for themselves.
W: What about now? How will we fund the rewards in the meantime?
M: Well,by increasing taxes or moving money from other areas of the budget into education.
12. What do we learn about the man?
13. What does the woman say is the most controversial?
14. What does the man say is his real goal?
15. What will be one option for funding the proposed rewards according to the man?
Section C
Passage One
I met three different people today, and each time, when I asked,“How are you?”The reply was exactly the same.“I'm busy”. Honestly, I hear the same answer from the vast majority of people I meet. So I started to think:“Guesswhat? Everybody's busy!”I'm busy, you're busy, everybody's busy. So you being busy doesn't make me sympathetic at all. Because“busy”is the state of the world.
So I'm launching a campaign to stop people complaining about being“busy.”It may sound harsh, butthe truth is, nobody cares. In a busy world,“being busy”doesn't stand out, nor does it mean productive, creative, accomplished, or professional.
Steve Maraboli once said,“When someone tells you they are too'busy', it's not a reflection of their schedule; it's a reflection of YOUR spot on their schedule.”Donna Lynn Hope has also remarked,“Busy doesn't mean better. I've never envied a busy person—the one who likes to point out their busy lives to others.”
The reality is, nobody is too busy—it's just about priorities.So the next time someone asks you how you are.maybe respond differently.In my experience, the“I'm busy”response is really covering up the fact that they're not actually accomplishing their real purpose. And“being busy”is the lie they tell themselves about why they can't achieve it.
16. Why is the speaker launching a campaign?
17. What does the speaker advise us to do next time someone asks how we are?
18. Why do many people make the“I'm busy”response according to the speaker?
Passage Two
More and more people are taking up extreme sports, like snowboarding, skateboarding, mountain biking, and many more. Why are these sports becoming so popular?
One thing that extreme sports do better than perhaps anything else is to help you stop being afraid.It may sound strange to say that their main function is to reduce fear. But after a time, your fear response to other things in life will be dramatically reduced. After all, if you can jump out of a plane or off a bridge, then you can face anything else easily.
When doing extreme sports, you have to become more focused. You'll be pushed to your limits, and if youaren't focused you'll make dangerous mistakes. Learning to be this focused when enjoying extreme sports will help you to be focused at work, keeping you more productive and ultimately more successful.
It's great to stay fit and healthy, but standard exercise routines and sports only work the same muscles repeatedly.With extreme sports, you'll be working entirely different muscles, and that means you get an all-over workout.
Extreme sports also burn a lot more calories than other sports. Skateboarding, for example, can burn as many as 500 calories per hour. Basketball burns around 300 in the same time.
When you find that you can overcome the physical or mental challenges involved in extreme sports, you'll feel superhuman and your self-confidence will be at an all-time high.
19. What may sound strange to say about extreme sports?
20. Why should one be highly focused when doing extreme sports?
21. How can extreme sports benefit us more than standard exercise routines and sports?
Passage Three
Most of us have been in teams or organizations where we've had conflict with the people that we're workingwith around the ideas or decisions that we're discussing. Conflict is natural. We all bring different life and work experiences to the table. We all have different personality preferences and tendencies. We're not all going to have the same ideas on how to approach policies, programs or problems.
But too often we get caught in this place where conflict is perceived to be negative—something we want toavoid so that we can maintain the harmony of our workplace. This could be because some people want to avoid conflict at all costs, after all they still have to work together. But this kind of artificial harmony isn't the answer.
Productive conflict is a vital part of teams and organizations that want to push forward and do more. Withoutconflict, we're often stuck in this artificial harmony where people don't express potentially innovative ideas for fear that they may start conflict with others.
But if you're in a place where you have a basis of trust, conflict can be extremely productive. It can leadto increased innovation and greater trust on teams. It may be an uncomfortable process, but good leaders and healthy teams recognize that productive and healthy conflict is an important part of how they function.
22. What does the passage say about conflict in organizations?
23. Why do some people want to avoid conflict at all costs?
24. Why is productive conflict important for teams and organizations?
25. What does productive conflict need as a basis?

18.根据说话者的看法,为什么很多人会给出“我很忙”的回答?
A)表明他们的成就是巨大努力的结果。

解析:文章中提到,富有成效的冲突是那些想要推进和做更多事情的团队和组织的一个重要组成部分。没有冲突,团队就会陷入这种人为的和谐之中,人们因为害怕与他人发生冲突而不敢表达潜在的创新想法。由此可知,富有成效的冲突之所以重要是因为它有利于激发创新想法,选项B与文章内容一致,因此为正确答案。选项A、C和D文章中未提及,故排除。
25.富有成效的冲突需要什么作为基础?
A)创新意识。
B)企业文化。
C)相互信任。
D)健康的心态。
解析:文章最后提到,如果你处于一个有信任基础的地方,冲突可以非常富有成效。选项C与文章内容一致,因此为正确答案。根据文章内容,富有成效的冲突可以提高团队的创新能力和信任度,但这并不是说创新意识是其基础,故排除选项A。选项B和D文章中均未提及,故排除。
