A）Early adoption makes for closer parent-child relationship. 　　 B）Most people prefer to adopt children from overseas. 　　C）Understanding is the key to successful adoption. 　　D）Adoption has much to do with love. 　　答案：ABCD 　　原文： 　　When couples get married，they usually plan to have children，Sometimes，however，a couple can not have a child of their own. In this case，they may decide to adopt a child. In fact，adoption is very common today. There are about 60,000 adoptions each year in the United States alone. Some people prefer to adopt infants. Others adopt older children. Some couples adopt children from their own families，they all adopt children for the same reason. They care about children（第26题） and want to give their adopted child a happy life. 　　Most adopted children know that they are adopted. Psychologists and childcare experts generally think this is a good idea. However，many adopted children or adoptees have very little information about their biological parents. As a matter of fact，it is often very difficult for adoptees to find out about their birth parents because the birth records of most adoptees are usually sealed. The information is secret，（第27题）so no one can see it. 　　Naturally，adopted children have different feelings about their birth parents. Many adoptees want to search for them，but others do not. The decision to search for birth parents is a difficult one to make. Most adoptees have mixed feelings about finding their biological parents. （第28题）Even though adoptees do not know about their natural parents，they do know that their adoptive parents want them，love them and will care for them. 　　Questions 26 to 29 are based on the passage you’ve just heard. 　　26.According to the speaker，why do some couples adopt children？ 　　27.Why is it difficult for adoptees to find out about their birth parents？ 　　28.Why do many adoptees find it hard to make the decision to search for their birth parents？ 　　29.What can we infer from the passage？ （四）Compound Dictation 　　题目序号：36-46 （前八题每题0.5分，后三题每题2分） 　　及格数量：6分 （写对至少5个单词，至少写出2句话的大意） 　　推荐准确数量：及格数量 　　核心技巧： 1、一支好笔 2、不要直接写在答题卡上，需要稍后誊写 3、句子一定要有完整结构，注意检查语法。 4、整齐，干净 5、尽量多写，不要放弃 复合式听写是对应试者听的能力、拼写能力、记笔记能力和书面表达的能力的综合测试。它要求应试者不仅听懂内容，熟练而准确地拼写单词，更重要的是将其归纳、总结，把主要意思通过笔头表达出来。在整个听力理解过程中，要注意以下几点： 　1） 利用读指令的这段时间，大致浏览一遍短文，了解一下全文语意意群的内容，通过阅读，对于所有要听的文字材料在头脑中形成一个大概印象，并对要填写的文字进行初步猜测。 　2） 录音在放第三遍的时，应试者除了填充前两遍没有听懂的部分之外，主要精力应放在检查已填充的词、词组和句子是否正确上。许多容易形成笔误的部分应该在这一段时间内一一排除。例如，字母大小写问题，单词的拼写，名词的单复数，名词所有格，单数第三人称，冠词的运用，动词时态的统一，主谓一致，词的前缀后缀等。 　3） 太长的词可先简写词头，以后再补充。 　4） 注意力不要跟着阅读人的速度走，最好先到空格处，以集中精力听写。 　5） 要学会放弃，不会的和听不懂的不要纠缠，以免影响后面的发挥。 　6） 养成良好的应试心理，这对听力考试尤为重要。 要想做好复合式听写的第二部分——写出要点，需要做到以下几点： 1. 分析，归纳和总结所听内容 所谓写出要点就是概括地写出主要意思。因此，并不需要把听到的内容全部写出来，凡是涉及到事物发展过程，背景等次要情节都不必写出，而是写出主干和结论，也就是讲话人要说明的内容。 2. 简化句子与结构 在听的过程中，往往会听到一个内容和结构都很复杂的句子，此时要抓住要点，可以把一个很复杂的句子简化为简单句表达出来 　　 3. 边听边记录 由于一篇文章内容较多，只读三遍，速度快，即使听懂也难免遗漏内容，所以养成在听的过程中用英语或汉语简单快速地记下某些内容，以便写重点时参考。 4. 抓住关键词，参考主题句 　　 在听的时候，要注意文章内的关键词和每段开头与结尾的句子，抓住几个关键词，再参考每段的主题句，猜测文章的主要内容和句子的主要意思，再用简单语言把它写出来也能得一定的分数。 　　 5. 用简单的语言写要点 　　写要点时要注意语言的完整性和表达的正确性，要避免语法和拼写错误，要写完整的句子而不是单个词或短语。 　　关于复合式听写我们可以当作一篇Cloze来做，通过对语篇的理解来猜测空格处有可能填的词汇和要点。在播放directions的时候做个小小的分析，可以让我们在听的时候更加有目的性。 话题：1 莫言获诺贝尔文学奖 （1）我国作家莫言获诺贝尔文学奖。 （2）此次获奖的重大意义。 范文： Several months ago, a good news swept onChina that Mo Yan won the 2012 Nobel Prize for literature.

Employmentdifficulty of college students is due to the following reasons. Among these,the increasing recruitment of colleges and universities plays a vital role. Inaddition, many colleges and universities fail to adapt their courses to thedevelopment of economy. Consideringsuch a rough job market, I think it is high time that we took effectivemeasures to solve the problem. Above all, college students should realize theirown defects and further improve themselves to keep their competitive edge insociety. Moreover, colleges or universities should provide more trainings andinternship opportunities before the students enter the society. Besides,college students should hold a right attitude towards jobs and set their jobexpectations at a suitable level. Only through these ways can the collegestudents find a satisfactory job and have a brighter future. 话题4：考研热 　　The Craze of Pursuing GraduateStudies 　　【精彩范文】 　　The Craze of Pursuing GraduateStudies 　　Each year, millions of Chinesecollege students sit for qualifying examinations for graduate studies,primarily in Master’s programs. Students prepare for those examinations eitherthrough years of arduous self-education or by spending large sums of moneyattending local training schools. The publishing of examinations-related studymaterials and the training programs offered, both online and offline, havecombined to form a sizable industry. 　　An alarming fact about thiscraze is that most students pursue graduate studies not out of their voluntarywill. Faced with the harsh reality in the employment market, which is foreverlooking for graduates with higher degrees, many college graduates find going tograduate schools is a good way to avoid unemployment and to enhance one’scompetitiveness in future job hunting. 　　However, without thatvoluntary initiative, most students who do enter graduate schools are notmotivated. For them, the only thing that ultimately counts is the degree or thediploma which they expect could give them an upper hand against other jobhunters. As to the actual substance of their graduate studies, it’s not a big dealfor them, as long as it leads to that degree or diploma. It is really patheticto see that students undertake graduate studies with an ulterior motive—not forthe sake of loving what they study, but for the sake of merely landing a job,which in many cases might be unrelated to what they have studied. 　　The chill truth is thatstudents soon find their anticipations are a mere dream. As so manyundergraduates proceed onto graduate studies, the employment situation remainsas severe as ever. Instead of bringing about apparent competitive edges, two orthree years of additional academic training is simply a waste of time andenergy. They need to reflect on this craze and would have been better offdistinguishing themselves with outstanding knowledge and skills when they wereundergraduates.
