I was the only Asian girl in my school, and I suddenly felt a bit lonely. Luckily, I had a brilliant art teacher who encouraged me to go to art college. However, on the day of my college interview in Bath, I woke up late. I left the house wearing two odd shoes and didn't notice that my bottle of chocolate milk had poured all over the painting in my bag. Then when I finally got to the station, I got on the wrong train. Who knows, if I had gone to Bath that day, I might have become a professional artist. But I went to Swindon instead. I told the woman next to me on the train about what had happened, and she suddenly cried with laughter. It turned out she was a producer of a comedy program on the radio. To cut a long story short, I got an invitation a week later to attend an interview for the show, and the rest, as they say, is history. I am very lucky my life has been full of happy accidents.

Many people think zoos are cruel, and have no place in the modern world. It is my own opinion that zoos, although not perfect, do have a useful function. Firstly, zoos are places of education. Zoos can help children to appreciate nature. Further more, research into animal behavior is done in zoos, and has increased on knowledges of zoology, genetics and even psychology. Above all, zoos can protect the future of many species of animal. Many species today are in danger of extinction, and thanks to zoos, they have a chance of survival. Opponents of zoos say that they are cruel. First of all, they argue, zoos can not recreate the environment in which animals live and because of this, animals are bored and depressed. Secondly, animals have frequent contact with human visitors. Which can be stressful? 8 However, in my opinion, most zoos have improved recently. It is now quite rare to see animals in cages, and most zoos try hard to recreate the environment in which different animals live. In conclusion, although zoos are not perfect environment for animals, I believe that they have more advantages than disadvantages. In an ideal world, zoos would not be necessary. But as long as man hunts animals for profit and destroy their environments, zoos are essential. 14: What is the most important function of zoos according to the speaker? 15: Why are some people against zoos? 16: What does the speaker think of zoos?

Then in the 1970s, many schools changed and became mixed. M: Do parents still prefer mixed schools? W: No, things have changed. Today, many parents, especially parents of girls, think their children get a better education in single sex schools. M: Why do girls do better at single sex schools? W: Because girls learn to be more self-confident and less worried about their appearance. M: What about boys? W: Well, today many parents of boys want to send them to mixed schools.

Q: What do we learn about the man from the conversation? Section B Directions: In Section B, you will hear two short passages, and you will be asked three questions on each of the passages. The passages 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. Many people catch a cold in spring or fall. It makes us wonder if scientists can send a man to the moon, why they can‘t find a cure for the common cold. The answer is easy. There‘re actually hundreds of kinds of cold viruses out there. You never know which one you will get, so there isn‘t a cure for each one. When a virus attacks your body your body works hard to get rid of it. Blood rushes to your nose and causes a blockage in it. You feel terrible because you can‘t breathe well. But your body is actually eating the virus. Your temperature rises and you get a fever. But the heat of your body is killing the virus. Different people have different therapies of colds. For example, some people might eat chicken soup to feel better. Some people take hot baths and drink warm liquids. Other people take medicines to relieve various symptoms of colds. There‘s one interesting thing to note. Some scientists say taking medicines when you have a cold is actually bad for you. The virus stays in you longer because your body doesn‘t develop a way to fight it and kill it. 11. Why haven‘t scientists found a cure for the common cold? 12. What does the speaker say about the symptoms of the common cold? 13. What do some scientists think of taking medicines for the common cold? Questions 14 through 16 are based on the following passage. Some people want to make and save a lot of money in order to retire early. I see people pursuing higher paying and demanding careers to accomplish this goal. They make many personal sacrifices in exchange for income today. The problem is that tomorrow might not come. Even if it all goes according to plan, will you know how to be happy when you are not working if you spend your entire life making money? More importantly, who will you share your leisure time with? At the other extreme are people who live only for today. They argue why bother saving when I might not be here tomorrow. The danger of this approach is that tomorrow may come after all. Most people don‘t want to spend all their tomorrows working for a living. However, the earlier neglect of saving makes it difficult not to work when you are older. You may be surprised to hear that if you must pick an extreme I think it‘s better to pick the spend-all approach. As long as you don‘t mind continuing to work, if your health allows, you should be OK. At least, you are making use of your money, and hopefully gaining value and pleasure from it. Postponing doing what you love until retirement can be a mistake. It may never come. 14. Why do some people pursue higher paying and demanding careers? 15. What is the danger facing those people who live only for today? 19 16. What is the speaker‘s view on how we should we live today? Section C Directions:In Section C, you will hear two longer conversations. The conversations will be read twice. After you hear each conversation, you are required to fill in the numbered blanks with the information you have heard. Write your answers on your answer sheet. Blanks 17 through 20 are based on the following conversation. M: Hello, everybody I‘m Jackie. Welcome to this information meeting about the University Helpline. It aims to provide new students with service that they can use if they need information about practical areas of student life. Let me give you some examples of the type of help we can offer. We can provide information on financial matters; for example you may feel that your grant is not enough to see you through college life or you may have some questions about the fees you pay if you are an overseas student. In both cases, the Helpline would be able to go through things with you and see what the outcome might be. W: Can you give me some examples in other areas? M: Yes, I‘d love to. Another area we can help with is what we generally term the ―domestic‖ area; things such as childcare and the availability of nursery provision. Then there‘re academic issues that may arise while you are in the early stage of your course, you may not know what to do about. You may wish to know more about essay deadlines, for example, or how to use the library. W: In what other area can Helpline help us? M: Well, Helpline can help students with their social life. If they don‘t know many people at the moment, they may wish to participate in outings or trips. If you wish to ring my office, the number is 326 9940. (Please, listen again.) Compete the form. Write ONE WORD for each answer Blanks 21 through 24 are based on the following conversation. W: Simon, how does it feel to be retired? M: Well, not so bad. W: How have you been spending your time? M: I have been spending more time with my family. I‘ve also travelled a bit. W: Great. M: You know I haven‘t stopped work completely. W: Yes, could you tell us more about this? M: I‘m on a scheme that‘s called phased retirement. I had a six-month break from work, after that I could apply for project work with the company I used to work for. W: How does the scheme work? M: Well, it‘s a trial at the moment. Instead of hiring temporary staff, the company advertises posts on its website that retired employees like myself can access. W: What sort of work is advertised? M: Well, all sorts of things. Some of the projects can last five or six months, and others can just be a couple of days. I can decide more or less when to work. So I can manage my own time. W: I can see it‘s good for you. What does your company get out of this? M: Well, I still have all my old contacts at work, so I know who to contact to get something done. 20 The company gets flexibility, too. Once the job‘s over, that‘s it. I‘m not on their books any more. (Please, listen again.) Compete the form. Write NO MORE THAN THTEE WORDS for each answer. 21
