Tape Script of Listening Comprehension

Section A

Directions: In this section, you will hear three news reports. At the end of each news report, you will hear two or three questions. Both the news report and the questions will be spoken only once. After you hear a question, you must choose the best answer from the four choices marked A), B), C) and D). Then mark the corresponding letter on Answer Sheet 1 with a single line through the centre.

Questions 1 and 2 will be based on the following news item.

Kenyan police say one person was killed and 26 injured in an explosion at a bus station in central Nairobi. The blast hit a bus about to set off for the Ugandan capital Kampala. Last July, the Somali group al-Shabab said it was behind the blasts in the Ugandan capital which killed more than 70 people. Will Ross reports from the Kenyan capital.

The explosion happened beside a bus which was about to set off for an overnight journey from Nairobi to the Ugandan capital Kampala. Some eyewitnesses report that a bag was about to be loaded on board, but it exploded during a security check. Windows of the red bus were left smashed, and blood could be seen on the ground beside the vehicle. Just hours earlier, Uganda's police chief had warned of possible Christmas-time attacks by Somali rebels.

1. What is the news report mainly about?

2. When did the incident occur?

Questions 3 and 4 will be based on the following news item.

Woolworths is one of the best known names on the British High Street. It's been in business nearly a century. Many of its 800 stores are likely to close following the company's decision to call in administrators after an attempt to sell the business for a token ￡1 failed.

The company has huge debts. The immediate cause for the collapse has been Britain's slide toward recession, which has cut into consumer spending. However, the business had been in trouble for years.

Known for low-priced general goods, Woolworths has struggled in the face of competition from supermarkets expanding beyond groceries and a new generation of internet retailers.

Many of the store group's 25,000 employees are likely to lose their jobs. Some profitable areas such as the DVD publishing business will survive.

3. What do we learn about Woolworths from the news report?

4. What did Woolworths attempt to do recently?

Questions 5 to 7 will be based on the following news item.

Cairo is known for its overcrowded roads, irregular driving practices and shaky old vehicles, but also for its air pollution. In recent months, though, environmental studies indicate there have been signs of improvement. That's due in part to the removal of many of the capital's old-fashioned black and white taxis. Most of these dated back to the 1960s and 70s and were in a poor state of repair.

After new legislation demanded their removal from the roads, a low interest loan scheme was set up with three Egyptian banks so drivers could buy new cars. The government pays about $900 for old ones to be discarded and advertising on the new vehicles helps cover repayments.

The idea has proved popular with customers ― they can now travel in

air-conditioned comfort and because the new cabs are metered, they don't have to argue over fares. Banks and car manufacturers are glad for the extra business in tough economic times. As for the taxi drivers, most are delighted to be behind the wheel of new cars, although there have been a few complaints about switching from black and white to a plain white colour.

5. What change took place in Cairo recently?

6. What helped bring about the change?

7. Why do customers no longer argue with new cab drivers?

Section B

Grand, please?

W: Who's calling, please?

M: Walter Barry, from London.

W: What is it about, please?

M: Well, I understand that your company has a chemical processing plant. My

own company, LCP, Liquid Control Products, is a leader in safety from leaks in the field of chemical processing. I would like to speak to Mr. Grand to discuss ways in which we could help TGC protect itself from such problems and save money at the same time.

W: Yes, I see. Well, Mr. Grand is not available just now.

M: Can you tell me when I could reach him?

W: He's very busy for the next few days – then he'll be away in New York. So it's difficult to give you a time.

M: Could I speak to someone else, perhaps?

W: Who in particular?

M: A colleague for example?

W: You're speaking to his personal assistant. I can deal with calls for Mr. Grand. M: Yes, well, could I ring him tomorrow?

W: No, I'm sorry he won't be free tomorrow. Listen, let me suggest something. You send us details of your products and services, together with references from other companies and then we'll contact you.

M: Yes, that's very kind of you. I have your address.

M: Oh, another of your newspaper pieces? What's this one about?

W: Do you remember the trip I took last month?

M: The one up to the Amazon?

W: Well, that's what I'm writing about—the new highway and the changes it's making in the Amazon valley.

M: It should be interesting.

W: It is. I guess that's why I forgot all about the time.

M: How many articles have you sold now?

W: About a dozen so far.

M: What kind of newspapers buy them?

W: The papers that carry a lot of foreign news. They usually appear in the big Sunday editions where they need a lot of background stories to help fill up the space between the ads.

M: Is there any future in it?

W: I hope so. There's a chance I may sell this article to a news service.

M: Then your story would be published in several papers, wouldn't it?

W: That's the idea. And I might even be able to do other stories on a regular basis.

Section C

Directions: In this section, you will hear three passages. At the end of each passage, you will hear some questions. Both the passage and the questions will be spoken only once. After you hear a question, you must choose the best answer from the four choices marked A), B), C) and D). Then mark the corresponding letter on Answer Sheet 1 with a single line through the centre.

Passage One

In today's class, we'll discuss Toni Morrison's novel Beloved. As I'm sure you all know, Morrison is both a popular and a highly respected author, and it's not easy to be both. Born in 1931, Morrison has written some of the most touching and intelligent works on the African-American experience ever written by anyone, and yet to call her an “African-American writer” doesn't seem to do her justice. In many ways, she's simply an American writer—and certainly one of our best.

Beloved is a truly remarkable work. It was recommended for nearly every major literary prize, including the National Book Award and the National Book Critics Circle Award, and it in fact won the Pulitzer Prize for fiction in 1988. Morrison herself is distinguished for having won the Nobel Prize for literature in 1993.

What makes Beloved unique is the skillful, sure way in which Morrison blends intensely personal storytelling and American history, racial themes and gender themes, the experience of Blacks with the experience of all people everywhere, the down-to-earth reality of slavery with a sense of mysterious spirituality.

We'll be paying special attention to these themes as we discuss this work. I'm particularly interested in your views on the relative importance of race and gender in this book. Is it more important that Sethe, the main character, is black or that she's a woman? Which contributes more to her being? What does Morrison tell us about both?

Questions 16 to 18 are based on the passage you have just heard.

16. What do we learn about Toni Morrison?

17. What honor did Toni Morrison receive in 1993?

18. What does the speaker tell us about Sethe, the main character in Morrison's

novel Beloved?

Passage Two

The topic of my talk today is gift-giving. Everybody likes to receive gifts, right? So you may think that gift-giving is a universal custom. But actually, the rules of

gift-giving vary quite a lot, and not knowing them can result in great embarrassment. In North America, the rules are fairly simple. If you're invited to someone's home for dinner, bring wine or flowers or a small item from your country. Among friends, family, and business associates, we generally don't give gifts on other occasions except on someone's birthday and Christmas. The Japanese, on the other hand, give gifts quite frequently, often to thank someone for their kindness. The tradition of

gift-giving in Japan is very ancient. There are many detailed rules for everything from the color of the wrapping paper to the time of the gift presentation. And while Europeans don't generally exchange business gifts, they do follow some formal customs when visiting homes, such as bringing flowers. The type and color of flowers, however, can carry special meaning.

Today we have seen some broad differences in gift-giving. I could go on with additional examples. But let's not miss the main point here: If we are not aware of and sensitive to cultural differences, the possibilities for miscommunication and conflict are enormous. Whether we learn about these differences by reading a book or by living abroad, our goal must be to respect differences among people in order to get along successfully with our global neighbors.

Questions 19 to 21 are based on the passage you have just heard.

19. What does the speaker say about gift-giving of North Americans?

20. What do we learn about the Japanese concerning gift-giving?

21. What point does the speaker make at the end of the talk?

Passage Three

Hetty Green was a very spoilt, only child. She was born in Massachusetts, USA, in 1835. Her father was a millionaire businessman. Her mother was often ill, and so from the age of two her father took her with him to work and taught her about

stocks and shares. At the age of six she started reading the daily financial newspapers and opened her own bank account.

Her father died when she was 21 and she inherited $7.5 million. She went to New York and invested on Wall Street. Hetty saved every penny, eating in the cheapest restaurants for 15 cents. She became one of the richest and most hated women in the world. At 33 she married Edward Green, a multi-millionaire, and had two children, Ned and Sylvia.

Hetty's meanness was well known. She always argued about prices in shops. She walked to the local grocery store to buy broken biscuits which were much cheaper, and to get a free bone for her much loved dog. Once she lost a two-cent stamp and spent the night looking for it. She never bought clothes and always wore the same long, ragged black skirt. Worst of all, when her son Ned fell and injured his knee, she refused to pay for a doctor and spent hours looking for free medical help. In the end Ned lost his leg.

When she died in 1916 she left her children $100 million. Her daughter built a hospital with her money.

Questions 22 to 25 are based on the passage you have just heard.

22. What do we learn about Hetty Green as a child?

23. How did Hetty Green become rich overnight?

24. Why was Hetty Green much hated?

25. What do we learn about Hetty's daughter?

关于全国大学英语四、六级考试听力试题调整的说明

为了适应新的形势下社会对大学生英语听力能力需求的变化，进一步提高听力测试的效度，全国大学英语四、六级考试委员会自2016年6月考试起将对四、六级考试的听力试题作局部调整。调整的相关内容说明如下。

一、四级听力试题的调整

1.取消短对话

2.取消短文听写

3.新增短篇新闻（3段）

其余测试内容不变。调整后四级听力部分的试题结构见下表：

四级“短篇新闻听力”【题型解读】：

样题中三篇短篇新闻听力全部来自BBC，字数最少的一篇为130词左右，最长的一篇

为190词左右，特点是1.长难句较多，2.大量出现专业名词或专业性的叙述。

题干部分仍旧仅提供选项，从选项内容上看，句子整体的难度无论是在用词上还是句子

结构上，与四级听力选项一贯的难度是一致的，但是选项中大量出现考生较为陌生的专有名

词，如地名“Somali”，“Kampala”，“Nairobi”等，这些词不仅形态陌生，而且读音往往也不

好辨认，对考生来说是一个挑战，并且可以想象，作为新闻稿件，频繁出现专业名词、专业

说法将成为常规现象，各位考生务必做好准备，第一学会将这些专业名词符号化，第二进一

步加强自己对语音音节构成的认知，正确不让这些专业名词在听力过程中干扰自己。

由于新闻的内容偏专业性，离日常生活比较远，听力难度较之前的短对话无疑是大大增

加的，但在这种情况下，选项所涉及的内容和新闻原文的内容一定是高度一致的，能够最大

程度地提供预判素材，所以阅读选项变得更为重要，结合选项对新闻内容作出大致预判成为听力过程顺畅与否的关键。

由于新闻稿件有其特殊的行文方式和行文风格，所以考生需要重视日常的新闻素材听力训练，第一在文体上，熟悉新闻稿件的形式，第二在听力感受上，熟悉新闻稿件的听力特点，纵观历年历次四级考试改革，此次听力题型改动无疑将四级听力对考生的要求推向了“听力能力考查”的巅峰，应试技巧被削弱。

从调整后的分值可以看出，以前各位考生最容易得分的短对话部分、以及考察考生单词拼写的听写部分都已成为历史，两点变化最值得各位关注：

1. 短篇新闻的增加。从样题上看增加的短文新闻难度到达了之前的六级考试，尤其是第一篇，讲的是索马里叛军制造的恐怖袭击事件，里边出现了大量的专有名词Kenyan 肯尼亚Ugandan 乌干达等等，不仅词汇模式，内容也离实际生活较远。学生们听见后一定会乱了阵脚，难度大大增加，但是从考题上看，两道命题的设置难度都不大，第一题考的是主旨大意，第二题虽然考的是细节，但原文中有明显的转折词but作为标志，所以只要有良好的考试技巧，攻克这部分也不是难事。3

2. 听力篇章分值的增加。听力篇章分值由原来的10%增加到了20%，之前这部分就是同学们的重灾区，很多人抱怨跟不上，其实“跟不上”最好的解决方案就是“不跟了”，因为每个正确答案出现之前都有标志性的词汇，比如说：最高级，转折，因果词，定义出等等，只要同学们能做到听出关键词，拿到高分也并非难事。
