作文范文:Greed or Greet?
The
earth has nurtured generations of human beings,
offering us with
every resource to survive and
prosper. Nowadays, with the explosion of
population and boom of economy, human’s
relentless exploitation of natural
resources
has caused crisis of exhaustion of energy and
resources.
The remark “Earth provides enough
to satisfy every man’s needs, but not
every
man’s greed.” gives out a warning for us all. The
ecosystem has
remained balanced until man
becomes obsessed with their ambition to
conquer Nature and they are blinded by greed.
On one hand, they are so
economy-oriented that
they ignore the protection of environment.
Increasing
pollution not only causes serious
problems such as global warming but also
could
threaten to end human life on our planet. On the
other hand, man
exploits and abuses non-
renewable energy and resources for the sake of
developing economy. If man insists on
extracting natural resources recklessly,
it
will be too dreadful to face the consequence.
Let us remember that only when we shake off
greed and heal the earth can
we build a better
home for ourselves and our future generations.

What's wrong with your phone, Gary? I tried to

M: I'm sorry. No
one's able to get through yesterday. My telephone
was
disconnected by the phone company.
Q:
What does the woman ask the man about?
12.

place since I got here six months ago.
Q: What
does the man mean?
13.
M: I got this in my

听力P1原文
Passage 1
Would you trust a
robot to park your car? The question will confront
New
Yorkers in February as the city's first
robotic parking opens in Chinatown.
The
technology has been successfully applied overseas,
but the only other
public robotic garage in
the United States has been troublesome, dropping
vehicles and trapping cars because of
technical problems.
Nonetheless, the
developers of the Chinatown garage are confident
with the
technology and are counting on it to
squeeze 67 cars in an apartment-building
basement that would otherwise fit only 24,
accomplished by removing a
maneuver space
normally required.
A human-shaped robot won't
be stepping into your car to drive it. Rather, the
garage itself does the parking. The driver
stops the car on a flat platform and
gets out.
The platform is lowered into the garage, and it is
then transported to a
vacant parking space by
a computer-controlled device similar to an
elevator
that also runs sideways.
There is
no human supervision, but an attendant will be on
hand to accept
cash and explain the system to
newly users. Parking rates will be attracted
about $$400 monthly or $$25 per day, according
to Ari Milstein, the director of
planning for
Automation Parking Systems, which is the U.S.
subsidiary of a
German company. This company
has built automated garages in several
countries overseas and in the United
States for residents of a Washington, D.C.
apartment building.
Questions 26 to 29 are
based on the passage you have just heard.
26.
What do we learn about the robot parking in the
U.S. so far?
27. What advantage does robotic
parking have according to the developers?
28.
What does the attendant do in the automated
garage?
29. What does the company say about
the parking rate?
Passage 2
A recent study
shows that meat consumption is one of the main
ways that
human can damage the environment,
second only to the use of motor vehicles.
So
how can eating meat have a negative effect on the
environment? For a
start, all animals, such as
cows, pigs and sheep, always gas limed methane,
which is the second most common green house
gas after carbon dioxide.
Many environmental
experts now believe that methane is more
responsible for
global warming than carbon
dioxide. It is estimated that 25% of all methane
that released into the atmosphere coming from
farm animals. Another way in
which meat
production affects the environment is through the
use of water and
land. 2,500 gallons of water
are needed to produce one pound of beef. While
20 gallons of water are need to produce one
pound of wheat. One acre of
farmland use to
for raising cows can produce 250 pounds of beef.
One acre of
farmland use to for crop
production can produce 1,500 pounds of tomatoes.
Many people now say the benefits of switching
to vegetarian diet which
excludes meat and
fish. Not just for health reasons, but also
because it plays a
vital role in protecting
the environment. However, some nutritionists
advise
against switching to a totally strict
vegetarian diet. They believe such a diet
which includes no products from animal sources
can be deficient in many of
the necessary
vitamins and minerals our bodies need. Today many
people
have come to realize that help
the environment and for the human race to
survive, more of us will need to become
vegetarian.
Questions 30 to 32 are based on
the passage you've just heard.
30. What does
the recent study show?
31. What do some
nutritionists say about the strict vegetarian
diet?
32. What does the speaker think more
people need to do?
Passage 3
Alcoholism is
a serious disease. Nearly nine million Americans
alone suffer
from the illness. Many scientists
disagree about what the differences are
between the alcohol addict and social drinker.
The difference occurs when
someone needs to
drink. And this need gets in the way of his health
or
behavior. Alcohol causes a loss of judgment
and alertness. After a long period,
alcoholism
can deteriorate the liver, the brain and other
parts of the body. The
illness is dangerous,
because it is involved in half of all automobile
accidents.
Another problem is that the victim
often denies being an alcohol addict and
won’t
get help. Solutions do exist. Many hospitals and
centers help patients
cope. Without the
assistance, the victim can destroy his life. He
would detach
himself from the routines of
life. He may lose his employment, home or loved
ones.
All the causes of the sickness are
not discovered yet. There is no standard for
a
person with alcoholism. Victims range in age,
race, sex and background.
Some groups of
people are more vulnerable to the illness. People
from broken
homes and North American Indians
are two examples. People from broken
homes
often lack stable lives. Indians likewise had the
traditional life taken
from them by white
settlers who often encourage them to consume
alcohol to
prevent them from fighting back.
The problem has now been passed on.
Alcoholism
is clearly present in society today. People have
started to get help
and information. With
proper assistance, victims can put their lives
together
one day.
Question 33 to 35
are based on the passage you have just heard.
Q33. What is the problem of the victims about
alcoholism according to the
speaker?
Q34.
Why did white settlers introduce alcohol to
Indians?
Q35. What does the speaker seem to
believe about those affected by
alcoholism?

Conversation One
W: Well, it’s the South
Theater Company. They want to know if we’d be
interested in sponsoring a tour they want to
make to East Asia.
M: East Asia? uhh… and how
much are they hoping to get from us?
W: Well,
the letter mentions 20,000 pounds, but I don’t
know if they might
settle for us.
M: Do
they say what they would cover? Have they anything
specific in mind?
W: No, I think they are just
asking all the firms in tongue for as much money
as
they think they’ll give.
M: And we are
worth 20, 000 pounds, right?
W: It seems so.
M: Very flattering. But I am not awfully happy
with the idea. What we get out of
it?
W:
Oh, good publicity I suppose. So what I suggest is
not that we just give
them a sum of money, but
that we offer to pay for something specific like
travel
or something, and that in return, we
ask for our name to be printed prominently
in
the program, and that they give us free
advertising space in it.
M: But the travel
bill would be enormous, and we could never manage
that.
W: I know. But why don’t we offer to pay
for the printing of the programs
ourselves on
condition that on the front cover there's
something like This
program is presented with
the compliments of Norland Electronics, and free
advertising of course.
M: Good
idea. Well, let’s get back to them and ask what
the program they want
will cost. Then we can
see if we are interested or not.
Questions
19-21 are based on the conversation you have just
heard.
19. What do we learn about the South
Theater Company?
20. What benefit does the

suggest they do instead of paying the South
Theater Company’s travel expenses?

Conversation Two
W: Rock stars now face a
new hazard --- voice abuse. After last week's
announcement that Phil Collins might give up
touring because live concerts
are ruining his
voice, doctors are counseling stars about the dos
and don'ts of
voice care. Here in the studio
today, we have Mr. Paul Phillips, an expert from
the High Field Hospital. Paul, what advice
would you give to singers facing
voice
problems?
M: If pop singers have got voice
problems, they really need to be more
selective about where they work. They
shouldn't work in smoky atmospheres.
They also
need to think about resting their voices after a
show. Something else
they need to be careful
about is medicines. Aspirin, for example, singers
should avoid aspirin. It thins the blood. And
if a singer coughs, this can result in
the
bruising of the vocal cords.
W: And is it true
that some singers use drugs before concerts to
boost their
voices when they have voice
problems?
M: Yes, this does happen on
occasion. They are easily-available on the
continent and they are useful if a singer has
problems with his vocal cords and
has to sing
that night. But if they are taken regularly, they
cause a thinning of
the voice muscle.
Most pop singers suffer from three things: lack of
training,
overuse and abuse of the voice,
especially when they are young. They have
difficult lives. When they go on tour, they do
a vast number of concerts, singing
in smoky
places.
W: So, what would you advise the
singers to do?
M: Warm you voice up before a
show and warm it down after.
Questions 22-25
are based on the conversation you have just heard.
22. What does last week's announcement say
about rock star, Phil Collins?
23. What does
Paul Philips say about aspirin?
24. What does
Paul Philips say about young pop singers?
25.
What are the speakers mainly talking about?
Part III Listening Comprehension
复合式听写题目
Self-image is the picture you have of
yourself, the sort of person you believe
you
are. Included in your self-image are the
categories in which you place
yourself, the
roles you play and other similar descriptors you
use to identify
yourself. If you tell an
acquaintance you are a grandfather who recently
lost
his wife and who does volunteer work on
weekends, several elements of your
self-image
are bought to light — the roles of grandparent,
widower and
conscientious citizen.
But
self-image is more than how you picture yourself;
it also involves how
others see you. Three
types of feedback from others are indicative of
how they
see us: conformation, rejection, and
disconfirmation. Conformation occurs
when
others treat you in a manner consistent with who
you believe you
believe you have leadership
abilities and your boss put you in charge
of a
new work team. On the other hand, rejection occurs
when others treat you
in a manner that is
inconsistent with yourself definition. Pierre
Salinger was
appointed senator from California
but subsequently lost his first election. He
thought he was a good public official, but the
voters obviously thought
otherwise—
Their vote was inconsistent with his self-concept.
The third type of
feedback is disconfirmation,
which occurs when others fail to respond to your
notion of self by responding neutrally. A
student writes what he thinks is an
excellent
composition, but the teacher writes no encouraging
remarks. Rather
than relying on how others
classify you, consider how you identify yourself.
The way in which you identify yourself is the
best refection of yourself-image.
