There are more than forty universities in Britain—nearly twice as many as in 1960s. During
the 1960s eight【B1】new ones were founded, and ten other new ones were created by【B2】old colleges of technologies into universities. In the same period the【B3】of students more than doubled, from 70,000 to more than 200,000. By 1973 about 10% of men【B4】from eighteen to twenty-one were in universities and about 5% of women. All the universities are【B5】institutions. Each has its own governing councils,【B6】some local business men and local politicians as【B7】as a few academics. The state began to give【B8】to them fifty years ago, and by 1970 each university derived nearly all its【B9】from state grants. Students have to pay fees and living costs,【B10】every student may receive from the local authority of the place where he lives a personal grant which is enough to pay his full【B11】, including lodging and food unless his parents are【B12】Most students【B13】jobs in the summer for about six weeks, but they do not【B14】do outside work during the【B15】year.

听力原文:W: You are an expert on urban problem. Mr. Cross. I wonder how you would describe
the characteristics of these enormous cities.

M:The first point to make is that they are different from large cities in Europe and America.

W:Surly all large cities are essentially similar.

M:It's true that all large cities experience similar problems provisioning housing and services,but the difference lies in the time factor.

W:Surly some of the cities we are considering are just as old and, in some cases,much older, than cities in the United States,for instance.

M:Very true, but the large cities of Europe and the United States grew relatively slowly. London had a population of more than a million at the beginning of the nineteenth century and this number of more than eight million. And this growth was parallel to industrial growth throughout the country.The same is true of New York, for example.

W:But this is not true of Mexico city or Buenos Aires?

M:No,it is not. Throughout Latin America and in parts of Asia, cities have grown much faster than industry,or agriculture for that matter.Some of these cities have quadrupled in size in less than two decades,while industrial growth over the same period may have only reached thirty to forty percent.

W:What does this mean?

M: Essentially the population growth is not equal to the number of employment opportunities. Much of the increase is due to immigration from the countryside, a movement of people in search of better conditions.

(20)

A.The tourist and the guide.

B.The student and the teacher.

C.The reporter and the urban expert.

D.The worker and the manager.

I don't want to interrupt your thoughts. But really, you are the only interesting-looking person in the room. May I talk to you? It never happened.

听力原文: There are two factors which determine an individual's intelligence. The first is
the sort of brain he is born with. Human brains differ considerably, some being more capable than others. But no matter how good a brain the has to begin with, an individual will have a low order of intelligence unless ha has opportunities to learn. the second factor is what happens to the individual—the sort of environment in which he is reared. If an individual is handicapped environmentally, it is likely his brain will fail to develop and he will never attain the level of intelligence of which he is capable.

The importance of environment in determining an individual's intelligence can be demonstrated by the case history of the identical twins, Peter and Mark. The twins had identical brain at birth. When the twins were three months old, their parents died, and they were placed in different homes. Peter was reared by parents of low intelligence in an isolated community with poor educational opportunities. Mark was reared in the home of well-to-do parents who had been to college. He was sent to good schools, and given every opportunity to be stimulated intellectually. This environmental difference continued until the twins were in their late teens, when they were given tests to measure their intelligence. Mark's I. Q. was 125, twenty five points higher than the average and fully forty points higher than his identical brother.

(30)

A.Human brains differ considerably.

B.The brain a person is born with is important in determining his intelligence.

C.An environmentally handicapped person won't attain his due level of intelligence.

D.Environment is important in determining a person's intelligence.

第9题

Old people are always saying that the young are not what they were. The same comment is ma
de from generation to generation and it is always true. It has never been truer than it is today. The young are better educated. They have a lot more money to spend and enjoy more freedom. They grow up more quickly and are not so dependent on their parents. They think more for themselves and do not blindly accept the ideals of their elders. Events which the older generation remembers vividly are nothing more than past history. This is as it should be. Every new generation is different from the one that preceded it. Today the difference is very marked indeed.

The old always assume that they know best for the simple reason that they have been around a bit longer. They don't like to feel that their values are being questioned or threatened. And this is precisely what the young are doing. They are questioning the assumptions of their elders and disturbing their complacency. Office hours, for instance, are nothing more than enforced slavery. Wouldn't people work best if they were given complete freedom and responsibility? And what about clothing? Who said that all the men in the world should wear drab grey suits and convict haircuts? If we ruin our minds to more serious matters, who said that human differences can best be solved through conventional politics or by violent means? Why have the older generation so often used violence to solve their problems? Why are they so unhappy and guilt-ridden in their personal lives, so obsessed with mean ambitions and the desire to amass more and more material possessions? Haven't the old lost touch with all that is important in life?

These are not questions the older generation can shrug off lightly. Their record over the past forty years or so hasn't been exactly spotless. Traditionally, the young have turned to their elders for guidance. Today, the situation might be reversed. The old—if they are prepared to admit it—could learn a thing or two from their children. One of the biggest lessons they could learn is that enjoyment is not "sinful". Enjoyment is a principle one could apply to all aspects of life. It is surely not wrong to enjoy your work and enjoy your leisure, to shed restricting inhibitions. It is surely not wrong to live in the present rather than in the past or future.

What's the old generation's comment on the young?

A.The young are more knowledgeable than they are about the world around.

B.The young treat historical events as seriously as they do.

C.The young do not behave the way they did when they were young.

D.The young tend to ruin their minds to more serious matters.

听力原文:W: Hi, Larry, are you waiting to see Professor Gilmore, too?

M: Yah, since I got one of the five highest grades in her class, she asked me if I'd be interested in working as her assistant next semester, I'm here now for my interview.

W: Oh, yes. I know all about that job. I did it two years ago.

M: Really? Did you like it?

W: I think it was the best I've had at school. It paid eight dollars an hour, which was three dollars an hour more than I got working at the school post office the year before.

M: That is a good salary. What did you do?

W: I was in charge of grading all the problem sets that were assigned as homework. I never had trouble doing it, and of course, Prof. Gilmore was always available to help me if I had any questions.

M: I think I'd enjoy doing that sort of work. It would be very good experience for anyone thinking about becoming a teacher.

W: Absolutely. You also learn how to use the computer data base, because the records are kept on it. And building up your computer skills is a good preparation for lots of jobs.

M: The job sounds great, but I'm a little worded about how much time it might take.

W: It's pretty reasonable. It never took me more than five hours a week to do all the grading and then another thirty to forty minutes to record the grades on the computer.

(20)

A.She is a good friend of Professor Gilmore.

B.She used to work for Professor Gilmore.

C.She heard of it form. other students.
