《现代大学英语听力2》听力原文及题目答案Unit 14

y, too. They are active, but not as active as the thinner mice. But they only live about two years, not the three years or more of the thinner mice.

The last group of mice is receiving more food than the other two groups. Most of the day, these mice are eating or sleeping. They’re not very active. These mice are living longer than the scientists thought — about a year and a half. But they are not healthy. They’re sick more often than the other two groups.

The experiment is still going on. The scientists hope to finish their studies in two years.

Task 2

【答案】

1) People keep fish in a certain place just as they keep sheep and cattle.

2) By education.

3) Waste pollutes the sea, and plankton dies. Other sea animals that live on plankton cannot find

enough food.

4) They needed to kill whales for their meat, their bones and the oil from their fat. But they have other materials now.

【原文】

Mike: Good morning, and welcome to Radio Time. For our monthly programme, Science Today, I've invited a group of scientists to the studio to talk about sea life — Professor Adams, Dr. Brown and Dr. Church. It's good to have you with us. Professor Adams, I've read in the papers that sea life is in danger. Is this true?

Adams: I'm afraid so, very true. As the world population grows, we need more food, so we catch more fish. We're overfishing the sea, and soon there won't BE any fish.

Brown: The answer is to start more fish farms on land.

Church: I agree. We must keep fish, like we keep sheep and cattle.

Adams: Fish farms are a good idea, but I don't think they will solve the problem of overfishing the sea. We have to stop people fishing in certain parts of the ocean.

Church: Yes. We need international rules to protect fish, and all the countries of the world must agree to obey them.

Brown: We have rules now, and people don't obey them. I agree that we must stop fishing in

certain parts of the ocean...

Adams: And we must only allow each country to catch a certain number of fish — but how do we make people obey these rules?

Church: I don't know. By education perhaps?

Mike: You mean, teach people about sea life?

Church: Exactly. We must explain how everything depends on everything else. If people want to eat fish in the future, then they must stop killing so many fish now.

Brown: Waste is another problem. We're filling the oceans of the world with our rubbish. The sea can no longer clean itself. It's not safe to swim near the beaches, and out at sea plankton is starting to die.

Adams: And without plant plankton for the zoo plankton, and zoo plankton for small fish and shellfish, the large fish can't find any food, and so it goes on.

Church: One reason why whales are disappearing is that they can't find enough food.

Mike: Whales eat plankton, don't they?

Church: Yes. And some people still want to eat whale meat. In the past people needed to kill whales for their meat, their bones and the oil from their fat. But we have other materials now. People must stop killing whales.

Brown: I agree. We mustn't lose the largest sea mammal in the world.

Adams: Everyone must work to save the whale. It's a wonderful animal, and it has a right to life. Mike; And everyone must try to understand about sea life and protect it. Well, thank you for coming on the program me and I hope our listeners will remember what you said. Don't let our oceans die, and remember, no food for the fish means no fish for food!

Task 3

【答案】

1) b

2) a

3) b

4) c

1) Measure; Mix; Pour; Put on; Pack

2) late; sick; vacations; strike; 24 hours; 7 days; 365 days

1) A worker will program the robots. She/He will type the orders into a computer, telling the robots what ingredients to use, how long to mix them, and which labels to use.

2) A technician from the robot company will come within an hour to fix it.

3) No.

【原文】

Boss: Robots? Why are you talking about robots? We're a small company, we make cough syrup.

We only have twenty workers. Robots are fine for large factories, not small ones like

ours.

Assistant: Boss, small companies can use robots, too. They're great workers.

Boss: I don't know. Talk to me about them ten years from now.

Assistant: Boss, listen, this is a simple operation here. We make 10 different kinds of cough syrup.

But each operation only has 5 steps, so we'll only need 5 robots. One robot will measure

the ingredients, and a second robot will mix them. A third robot will pour the syrup into

the bottles. Then a fourth robot will put the labels on. The last robot will pack the bottles

into boxes. Right now, we have 20 workers doing these jobs.

Boss: But each kind of syrup is different. How will these robots know what to do? Assistant: We'll tell them. One worker will program the robots. She'll just type the orders into a computer, tell the robots what ingredients to use, how long to mix them, and which

labels to use.

Boss: And what happens when one of the robots breaks down?

Assistant: They don't break down very often. And the robot company will have a technician here within an hour.

Boss: I just can't picture it. What will we have here? A quiet building with robots rolling around doing the work?

Assistant: That's it! And these robots are great workers. They'll never come to work late, they won't call in sick, they won't take vacations, they won't go on strike, and they'll work 24

hours a day, 7 days a week, 365 days a year.

Boss: I don't know. It sounds like a good idea, but I need time to think. What about the men and women who work here now? Most of them are good workers. They have families to

support.

Assistant: Boss, that's the only problem. We won't need them anymore.

2) The Consequences of the Industrial Revolution in Britain

【原文】

Part 1

The early inventions and discoveries which began the Industrial Revolution had important consequences. One immediate result was the great increase in the quantity of manufactured goods available. Another important result was the rapid growth of cities. Many country people left their farms to work in factories. Gradually, new towns grew up around these factories which were built near the sources of coal, iron and waterpower. Some of the great cities of England, such as Manchester, Leeds and Birmingham, started in this way.

The industrial towns were not pleasant places to live in. The workers' quarters were over-crowded and the people lived in the midst of filth and disease.

Part 2

The Industrial Revolution also brought about what was later called the factory system. Working conditions in factories were bad. The people had to work long hours for small wages. Accidents were common and the employer took no responsibility for them. The most unfortunate victims of the factory system were children. Children only four or five years old were employed in factories and mines.

Part 3

Many influential people began to protest against the terrible conditions under which the people lived and worked. Gradually, the English Parliament made new laws to protect workers, particularly women and children. In 1842, it was made illegal to employ women, and children under ten years old, to work in the mines. Another law was passed in 1847 allowing only ten hours of work per day for women and for boys under eighteen years of age. After 1824, working men were also allowed to form unions to bargain peacefully with their employers for better working conditions and better wages. Strikes were, however, forbidden for many years.

Part 4

As the factory system grew, a number of men criticized its evils. Some of these men merely wanted new laws to protect the workers. Others, who were later known as Socialists or Communists, demanded complete changes in the system of Government and the way people earned their living.

Miranda went to one side of the control room and touched a button. The door of the safety room slid open. Miranda went inside and closed the door. She had a plan of her own.

The large blue capsules were on the tray which had come out of the wall. Miranda picked up

a capsule and opened it carefully. It was full of white powder. She emptied the white powder into some water. Then she poured the liquid into an injection gun.

Miranda put the gun carefully into a pocket in her overalls. She now had a weapon of her own.

"Garth will not think of searching me," Miranda said to herself. "He doesn't know I have a different plan for the crystals."

Miranda went back to the control room. Omega was silently charging the power banks. The visual display showed the sleeping bodies of Garth and V aron.

"When will the ship be ready to leave for Zeron?" she asked Omega eagerly.

"In three and a half hour's time," was Omega's reply.

"Keep watching Garth," Miranda ordered. "But you can stop watching Varon. He is locked in his cabin. He cannot get out until I open the door."

"It will be done," Omega answered.

He pressed the button on the control panel. The picture of V aron disappeared and the picture of the sleeping body of Garth filled the screen.

Miranda went out into the corridor and walked the short distance to Varon's cabin. She touched a button in the wall and the door opened immediately. Varon was lying asleep on the bunk.

Miranda looked down at him.

"You're a fool," she thought. "How can you lie there sleeping? Anyone who trusts Garth is a fool."

She shook Varon by the shoulder until he woke up.

"What's wrong?" he asked sleepily. "Are we ready to leave?"

"Not yet," replied Miranda. "I have come to talk to you. I want you to help me."

"I am going to help you to get the Zeron crystals. What more help do you want?" asked Varon.

"You know very little about me and Garth," began Miranda.

"I know enough," interrupted Varon. "You are thieves. And you are murderers!"

"I am not a murderer," said Miranda. "I helped Garth on Earth. But I did not kill the owner of this spaceship."

【原文】

Potts: Now, Mr. Macadam, what makes you so sure that there is a monster in Loch Ness? Macadam: I've seen it, Professor Potts! I've seen it with my own eyes, I tell you! I was there by Loch Ness very early one morning. I was standing by the edge of the lake. Suddenly I

saw a pair of eyes in the water. They were looking at me. Then a head came up out of

the water, and this thing began to swim towards me. I was really frightened, you know!

I was holding a bottle in my hand at the time. I threw it at the monster. Then the

monster dived and swam away underwater. But I know you don't believe my story, do

you, Professor Potts?

Potts: Well, I believe that you saw something. But are you certain that it was a monster?

Could you see it clearly? Are you sure that it wasn't just some kind of animal or bird?

You see, I don't believe in monsters. And I don't think there's anything strange or

unusual in Loch Ness. If there are any monsters there, why hasn't anyone caught one

yet? Why aren't there any really clear photos or films of one?

Macadam: Ah, well let me explain. Loch Ness is very deep, you know — more than 200 metres deep in some places. And the water's a dark brown colour. These monsters don't come

to the surface of the lake very often. They live in deep water, near the bottom of the

lake. You can't see much down there. So it's very hard to find these monsters. And it's

harder to catch one. Dr. Hunt knows a lot about Loch Ness. You believe there's a

monster there, don't you, Doctor?

Dr. Hunt: Well, actually, I used to think that the whole idea of "Nessie" was just a joke. But now I'm not so sure. Nowadays we know a lot about land animals, but the underwater world

is still full of mysteries. I don't like the word "monster", but I believe there may be

something unusual in Loch Ness. It may be a big animal. It may be a fish that scientists

don't know about. It could even be a kind of dinosaur that didn't die 65 million years

ago. Who knows? It's an exciting idea, but we can't be certain until we have some

better pictures, or, best of all, until someone catches one of these things so that

scientists can study it properly.

1) Dispute over the genetically modified crops.

2) Biotech foods come from material that has been genetically modified by scientists to resist in-sects or disease.

3) European consumers feared possible health risks of these new foods.

4) First the foods must be labeled clearly. Second, producers will have to trace GMOs at all stages

of production.

5) Because the aid contained biotech grain, which Africans feared could be used as seed and thereby threaten future exports to the EU.

【原文】

The European Parliament on Wednesday passed two laws that could open the way for European Union nations to lift an unofficial ban on genetically modified crops. This is a major trade issue with the United States, whose farmers claim the ban has cost almost $300 million a year in lost corn exports.

The new laws, expected to be adopted by EU governments before the end of the year, would allow the distribution of genetically modified foods as long as they are clearly labeled. The rules would also force producers to trace genetically modified organisms, or GMOs, at all stages of production.

The new laws require the 15 nations of the EU to establish their own measures to prevent seeds from farms growing genetically modified crops from blowing into fields of conventional farms.

European consumers fear possible health risks from genetically modified products, but EU Health Commissioner David Byrne insists this is not a concern.

"The purpose of this legislation is to inform consumers about the exact nature and characteristics of the food, to enable them to make informed choices. The purpose of labeling is not to inform the consumer about the safety or lack of safety of a food. If a food is unsafe, it cannot be placed on the market at all."

The United States has filed a complaint with the World Trade Organization in an attempt to have the unofficial EU moratorium on so-called biotech foods lifted.

Washington has also said previously it is unhappy with the new labeling rules and other requirements, which it believes are too costly and restrictive.

Biotech foods come from material that has been genetically modified by scientists to resist in-sects or disease. Such foods have been widely grown in North America for years.

The EU imposed its unofficial moratorium on new biotech foods five years ago because of fears by European consumers about possible health risks.

The issue has worldwide implications. Last year, several African nations rejected US food aid because it contained biotech grain, which Africans feared could be used as seed and thereby threaten future exports to the European Union.

1) It's the largest anywhere in the world.

2) They built two different types of power station side by side. They want to find which is the best system for harnessing the power of the sun.

3) Water is converted to steam to drive the turbines in the usual way.

4) The sun often disappears.

【原文】

Japan is the land of the rising sun. And by the sea on one of the Japanese islands at the little town of Neo, they're taking the national symbol seriously. The town now has its own power station, and it's the largest anywhere in the world to be powered by the sun.

This massive installation is clear evidence of the Japanese commitment to solar power. And perhaps only they could have gone this far, to stage what's in effect a solar energy competition.

There are, in fact, two totally different types of power station here, side by side, and each one of them is capable of generating one megawatt of electricity. And although they began this year feeding electricity into the power network to supply about 2,000 local houses, this is basically just one enormous experiment to find the best way of harnessing the sun.

The mirrors here are part of just one of the solar power stations, and each one is made of specially treated glass which reflects 95 percent of the sunlight falling on them. They then focus that light up to the top of a central tower. Altogether, there are 800 of these mirrors arranged in a circle around the tower, and to make sure they're always reflecting the sunlight onto the collecting surface at the top, a series of computers dotted amongst the mirrors adjusts their position so they follow the movement of the sun across the sky.

As they heat the collecting surface to over 400~ Centigrade, water in concealed pipes is converted to steam and returns back down the tower to drive a turbine and generator in the usual way.

But the obvious problem with solar energy is that the sun often disappears, even here where the site was carefully chosen because it's one of the sunniest spots in Japan. Completely overcast days are a write-off, but this station does cope very well with those days where there are some sunny spells, and that's because enough steam can be stored in these tanks to run the generators for three hours. And they expect the station to be able to operate for more than 200 days a year.

So much for system one. It's a Western design, but only the Japanese have completed a station this big. And it's only half of their experiment.

Beside it is the other entry in the competition, and this whole concept is completely home-grown. It uses mirrors again--2,500 of them--arranged on vast structures rather like football stands. Each of the stands faces south and every single mirror is individually controlled to track the sun across the sky. But this time there's no central tower.

Instead, the mirrors reflect the light onto a second set of parabolic mirrors facing them. These focus the sunlight and its heat onto a water pipe clearly visible in its protective vacuum tube. In the pipe the water is converted to steam and used to generate electricity as before.

It's a little early in the two-year test period to be certain yet which of the two designs is most effective. But it does look as though between the autumn and the spring, when the sun's at an angle, this parabolic type is better. But in the summer, when the sun's overhead, that central tower seems to have the advantage.

But when they have got the results of the tests, the next stage is to go on and build a power station ten times bigger than either of these. Coming to the right conclusions about solar power is even more important in Japan than it is in most countries. 75 percent of their energy comes from imported oil. They are determined to reduce that to 50 percent. And that will mean building a whole string of solar power stations throughout the country.

Task 9

【原文】

The future will not determine itself. The future is determined by the actions of the present day.

Edward Cornish, the editor of The Futurist magazine published by the World Future Society, says:

The responsibility we have for the future begins when we recognize that we ourselves create the future — that the future is not something imposed upon us by fate or other forces beyond our control. We ourselves build the future both through what we do and what we do not do.

A novel way of teaching may change the way universities are run. An engineering teacher at the American University of Illinois has had great success without textbooks, without exams and without deadlines. His students won nine of the top ten engineering awards in a university competition.

The engineering professor, Ricardo Uribe, let his engineering students express themselves, in-stead of telling them what to do. His students all focused on the problems that interested them, not what their teacher told 'them. They worked their own hours, not hours set by the university. They did not have to sit tests, and they helped each other in open classes.

Unit 7 Task 1 【答案】 A. 1) In a mental asylum. 2) He was a member of a committee which went there to show concern for the pertinents there. 3) They were cants behaving like humans. 4) He was injured in a bus accident and became mentally ill. 5) He spent the rest of his life in comfort. B. painter, birds, animals, cats, wide, published, encouragement, A year or two, The Illustrated London News, cats' Christmas party, a hundred and fifty, world famous 【原文】 Dan Rider, a bookseller who loved good causes, was a member of a committee that visited mental asylums. On one visit he noticed a patient, a quiet little man, drawing cats. Rider looked at the drawings and gasped. "Good lord, man," he exclaimed. "You draw like Louis Wain!" "I am Louis Wain," said the artist. Most people today have never heard of Louis Wain. But, when Rider found him in 1925, he was a household name. "He made the cat his own. He invented a cat style, a cat society, a whole cat world," said H. G. Wells in a broadcast appeal a month or two later. "British cats that do not look and live like Louis Wain cats are ashamed of themselves." Before Louis Wain began drawing them, cats were kept strictly in the kitchen if they were kept at all. They were useful for catching mice and perhaps for keeping the maidservant company. Anyone else who felt affection for cats usually kept quiet about it. If a man admitted that he liked cats, he would be laughed at. The dog was the only domestic animal that could be called a friend. Louis Wain studied art as a youth and became quite a successful newspaper and magazine artist. He specialized in birds and animals, including dogs, but never drew a cat till his wife was dying. They had not been married long, and during her illness a black-and-white cat called Peter used to sit on her bed. To amuse his wife, Louis Wain used to sketch and caricature the cat while he sat by her bedside. She urged him to show these-drawings to editors, fie was unconvinced, but wanted to humour her. The first editor he approached shared his lack of enthusiasm. "Whoever would want to see a picture of a cat?" he asked, and Louis Wain put the drawings away. A year or two later he showed them to the editor of The Illustrated London News, who suggested a picture of a cats' Christmas party across two full pages. Using his old sketches of Peter, Louis Wain produced a picture containing about a hundred and fifty cats, each one different from the rest. It took him a few days to draw, and it made him world famous. For the next twenty-eight years he drew nothing but cats. He filled his house with them, and sketched them in all their moods. There was nothing subtle about his work. Its humour simply lay in showing cats performing human activities; they followed every new fashion from sea bathing to motoring. He was recognized, somewhat flatteringly, as the leading authority on the feline species. He became President of the National Cat Club and was eagerly sought after as a judge at cat shows. Louis Wain's career ended abruptly in 1914, when he was seriously injured in a

2016年6月大学英语四级考试真题（第3套）参考答案 Part I Writing Dear Jack, I am writing to extend my sincere gratitude for the assistance you provided to me. You are the kindest teacher that I have ever met. If it had not been for your help and encouragement, I am afraid that I would not have made remarkable progress in English throughout the school year. There is no denying the fact that my success in entering college is attributed in great part to your guidance and encouragement. It was you who motivated me to study hard and brought home to me the importance of mastering English to my future achievement. Moreover, not only did you help me find out a feasible way to improve my English, but you also made plans and set goals to achieve my full potential in learning English. Again, many thanks for all the things you have done for me. May everything go well with you. Sincerely yours, Part IV Translation Wuzhen is an ancient water town in Zhejiang Province, located on the bank of the Beijing-Hangzhou Grand Canal. This is a charming place, with many ancient bridges, Chinese hotels and restaurants. Over the past 1,000 years, the water system and life styles in Wuzhen have not undergone many changes, thus making it a museum showing the ancient civilization.

《现代大学英语听力2》听力原文及答案U n i t1U n i t1 Task 1 【答案】 A. 1) She wanted to see St. Paul’s Cathedral. 2) She was so surprised because she saw so many Englishmen who looked alike. 3) They were all wearing dark suits and bowler hats, carrying umbrellas and newspapers. 4) Because she had often read about them and seen photographs of them, who all looked as if they were wearing a uniform. 5) No, he didn’t. 6) He used the English saying “It takes all kinds to make a world”to prove his opinion. B. If all the seas were one sea, what a great sea it would be! And if all the trees were one tree, what a great tree it would be! And if this tree were to fall in the sea, what a great splash there would be!

Yesterday morning Gretel went to the City of London. She wanted to see St. Paul's Cathedral. She was surprised to see so many Englishmen who looked alike. They were all wearing dark suits and bowler hats. They were all carrying umbrellas and newspapers. When she returned home she asked Mr clark about these strange creatures. "They must be typical English gentlemen," she said." I have often read about them and seen photographs of them. They all look as if they are wearing a uniform. Does the typical English gentleman still exist?" Mr. Clark laughed. "I've never thought about it," he answered." It's true that many of the men who work in the City of London still wear bowler hate and I suppose they are typical Englishmen. But look at this." Mr. Clark picked up a magazine and pointed at a photo of a young man. "He's just as typical, perhaps. It seems as if there is no such thing as a 'typical' Englishman. Do you know the English saying 'It takes all kinds to make a world'? That's true of all countries-including England." “Oh, just like the poem ‘If All the Seas Were One Sea’,”Gretel began to hum happily. If all the seas were one sea, what a great sea that would be! If all the trees were one tree, what a great tree that would be! And if this tree were to fall in the sea, w hat a great splash that would be!” Task 2
