Part I Writing
车用空气净化器1． For this part, you are allowed 30 minutes to write a short essay entitled There Is No End to Learning by commenting on the famous saying, “Education is not complete with graduation.” You should write at least 120 words but no more than 180 words. Write your essay on Answer Sheet 1. There Is No End to Learning
踏青诗句正确答案： There Is No End to Learning A large number of people tend to live under the illusion that they had completed their education when they graduate from their schools. Obviously, they fail to take into account the basic fact that there is no end to learning. First of all, it is universally accepted that no college or university can educate its students by the time they graduate. Even the best possible graduate needs to continue learning before he or she becomes an educated person. Furthermore, as a famous saying goes, ed
ucation is not complete with graduation. A college degree can never ensure long-term job success. Maintaining success in a job depends on education after graduation. Most importantly, learning is rewarding both materially and spiritually by enriching our life and perfecting our personality. In a word, learning is an invaluable career worth our life-long pursuit. No one should be content with just high school or college education.

Part II Listening Comprehension
Section A
听力原文： A court in the United States has ruled that the hamburger chain McDonald s was not responsible for the health problem of overweight children who eat at its restauran
ts. The judge said lawyers acting for the children had failed to show that McDonald’s products presented a danger unknown to consumers. This is the first case of its kind to go through the American courts. The outcome is a victory for the fast food industry, which is ready for a wave of tobacco-style charges over the health consequences of poor diet. The action was mounted on behalf of a group of overweight children suffering from diabetes, high blood pressure and other diet-related diseases. They blamed their problems on the fatty hamburgers and chips they’d regularly eaten at McDonald’s restaurants in New York.1 Why did McDonald’s win the charge?2 What was the reason for the consumer to charge McDonald’s?
2．
A．Because those children could not prove they regularly ate there.
B．Because most of those children are healthy.
C．Because consumers knew the dangers of McDonald’s products.
D．Because some children are not really overweight.
正确答案：C
解析：新闻在开始公布了一项法院裁定的结果，即麦当劳不必对在麦当劳进食的超重儿童的健康问题负责。随后说明原因：法官说，儿童方面的代表律师无法证明麦当劳产品对消费者是一种未知的危险。也就是说法官认为消费者应该知道快餐食品的坏处，所以责任也不应该由快餐企业来承担，C项符合新闻报道的内容。
3．
A．McDonald’s food is not clean.
B．McDonald’s food price is too high.
C．McDonald’s food contains high fat.
D．McDonald’s environment is not safe.
正确答案：C
解析：新闻结尾指出，这起诉讼是代表一肥胖儿童的。“他们把自己的健康问题归咎于他们经常在纽约麦当劳餐厅所吃的高脂肪汉堡包和薯条。”故C项正确。
听力原文： OPEC has decided this was not the time for cutting petroleum output. Energy ministers here didn’t have the stomach to cut back production at a time when crude oil prices were reaching historic highs on the international exchanges. It was feared that cuts in the output would send prices even higher and reduce global economic growth. While nobody here seems surprised about oil output levels’ remaining the same, President Hugo Chavez of Venezuela managed to raise a few eyebrows among delegates when he held a highly politicized speech calling on OPEC to be an anti-imperialist organization. He went on to describe Ilich Ramirez Sanchez, the jailed Marxist fighter, as a good friend. Venezuelan-bom Ramirez, better known as Carlos the slave, led a terror attack against OPEC’s Vienna headquarters in 1975.3 What did OPEC decide to do?4 What was the purpose of Hugo Chavez’s speech?
4．
转相思A．Raise the oil prize.
B．Cut back production.
C．Reduce global economic growth.
D．Remain the same level of output.
正确答案：D
解析：新闻中提到“……似乎没有人对石油产量保持不变而感到惊讶”，因此我们可以确定OPEC的决定是“保持不变的输出量”，故选D项。
5．
A．To cut petroleum output.
B．To fight against imperialism.
C．To help his good friend.
D．To promote the international exchanges.
正确答案：B
解析：新闻后半部分出现了一个焦点人物，即委内瑞拉总统Hugo Chavez，他发表了政治意味浓厚的演讲，号召石油输出国组织应该成为一个反对帝国主义的组织(be an anti-imperialist organization)，因此正确选项是B项。 visasfrance
听力原文： Four gunmen have been killed as the Indian military hindered a pre-dawn attack on an air force base near the border with Pakistan, officials say. Two soldiers at the Pathankot base were also killed in a gun battle lasting several hours. The base is on the main highway leading to Indian-administered Kashmir. The incident came days after the Indian and Pakistani leaders met in Lahore to launch a surprise peace initiative. The gunmen wore Indian military uniforms and drove a stolen car when they launched the attack at 3:30. They entered living quarters at the base, but were contained there and so were unable to cause any damage to military hardware, said air force spokeswoman Rochelle D’Silva. The BBC’s Sanjoy Majumder in Delhi says it is not yet
clear who the attackers were but suspicion is already falling on Kashmiri militant groups based in Pakistan. India says the group is backed by Pakistan, but Islamabad denies this.5 What is the news report mainly about?6 How many people were killed in the attack?7 When did the attack occur?
6．
A．An attack launched by gunmen.
B．A peace initiative before the attack.
C．The damage to military hardware.
D．A militant groups based in Pakistan.
正确答案：A
解析：本题为主旨大意题，需要在理解大意的基础上，注意到一些细节，难度略大。一般来说，新闻的首句会对全篇作一个概述，道出when、where、why等要素。新闻首句提到，
在与Pakistan接壤的边境，一个空军基地在凌晨受到攻击，印度军方在防御时击毙了4名手。新闻后面的内容都是围绕这次攻击，故A项“手发起的一次攻击”是正确选项。
7．
A．4.
B．2.
C．6.
D．8.
正确答案：C
解析：文中共出现4和2这两个相关数字。文章开头提到有4名持分子被击毙，2名士兵丧生，二者相加即可得出交战双方丧生的人数。故答案是C项。
8．
A．At dusk.
B．At 3:30 am.
C．On Monday morning.
D．On Friday afternoon.
正确答案：B
解析：新闻中有直接提到攻击是在3：30发起(they launched the attack at 3：30)，而新闻首句则提到这是一个a pre-dawn attack，即发生在黎明前，结合两者可知B项正确。
