【听力原文】
M: If you look at any list of New Year’s resolutions you wouldn’t be surprised to see find a better job fight at the top. Vera Gibbons of Kiplinger’s Personal Finance magazine is here with some tips to help you get a better job or maybe take on a career change. Good morning, Vera.
W: That’s right, good morning, nice to see you.
M: Nice to see you too. Happy New Year.
W: Same to you.
M: Start the new year, start looking for a new job, what’s amazing is how many people are actually thinking of doing that this year.
W: Yes, one survey found that 75％of American workers plan to look for a new job this year. They’re unhappy with the pay; they’re unhappy with the situation at their work; they want new challenges; there’s no room for advancement with their current employer, so a lot of people are going to be out there looking for work, and this is the time of year that we are more inclined to actually take the bull by the horns, take the initiative to go out there and find that job.
M: That whole resolution thing.
W: Yes.
M: Is there a good time to go about doing this?
W: Well you know, the opportunities pop up all year long but, yes, the heaviest of hiring generally does take place at the beginning of the year, early, they fire at the end of the year, they hire in the new. They fire for Christmas, and then hire in the next year.
M: So if you think about doing it, you really should get out there now.
W: Get out there now and get the ball rolling, yes.
M: What about the job market in 2007, what does it look like?
W: It is softening a little bit, job growth is slowing down some, because of the contraction in housing and all of those sectors, but that’s been offset a bit by the service sector. Those types of companies are hiring in the service industry. We’re actually expecting 1.3 million jobs to be created this year. And one survey by Career Builder actually found 40 percent of employers will be hiring full-time employees this year. So it’s not a bad time, it’s not great, it’s OK.
M: OK, so if you’re ready to take the plunge, if you wanna get out there, you have some tips. NO. 1 is Do Some Soul Searching.
W: Yes, I just think in order to get out of a job that isn’t going anywhere, a career that’s gonna drift, you really have to sit down and be proactive here, you can’t be reactive you have to be proactive. Motivation is really the key to making any changes in your personal life. People may sit back and say: well I’m getting a paycheck. The benefits are good. Why rock the boat? Here’s the thing, we’re spending that half of our life in the workplace, if you’re unhappy, do some soul searching, figure out where you are, and where you would like to go.
M: And part of that isyou say prioritize your options. What do you mean?
W: Yeah, I mean write down 5-10 things that are important to you in your job, in your career, maybe you wanna a better work-life balance, more flexible schedule whatever that happens to be again, take a look at what’s making you happy, what makes you unhappy, take a look at your goals, your dreams, your aspirations and then put together a plan to actually reach those goals. Because you’re more inclined to get there if you have a plan in place.
M: Good idea. You can actually write these all out. Also of course when you’re going out for that job search, you gotta have the resume, so you say make that resume stand out.
W: Yeah, you know, employer sonly spend about 10 seconds looking at your resume and on…
M: Ten seconds?
W: Yeah, and get this on average for every 245 resumes, they get, they only interview one person for 245 resumes. So it’ very competitive. You need to have your resume stand out, keep it short, keep it succinct, keep it to the point, focus on your measurable accomplishments. And because you’re gonna be looking for different jobs you should be highlighting different skills, different experiences, so it may be relevant for one position but not for another, so you wanna highlight different ones, have several different versions of the resume, all ready to go, then get out there, do the networking.
M: OK, and just briefly, you say do not look online, but do a lot of networking.
W: A lot of networking. That’s the key.
M: Vera Gibbons, thanks so much!
W: Thanks. -

第4题：
问答题Nowadays more young people can enjoy university education than in the past, but they are faced with another problem: job hunting. Most graduates find it hard to find a satisfactory job, and some have to stay jobless for several years. What do you think may have caused this problem? Write a composition of about 400 words to explain your point of view. The title has been provided for you.Problems in university students' job hunting In the first part of your writing you should present your thesis statement, and in the second part you should support the thesis statement with appropriate details. In the last part you should bring what you have written to a natural conclusion or a summary. Marks will be awarded for content, organization, grammar and appropriateness. Failure to follow the above instructions may result in a toss of marks.正确答案：
Problems in university students' job hunting Many years ago, most young people could not go to university because university only accepted a small amount of students. To their delight, young people now find it easier to go to university, but to their dismay, they also find it harder to find jobs. How come university students, who are intelligent, ambitious and knowledgeable, have difficulty in finding jobs? There are several reasons to account for this problem.
One important reason is that nowadays university students pursue too high a goal. Most of them dream to work in office buildings, and hold contempt for jobs in places where things are made or sold. Some care too much about some minor factors, such as salary, location or comfortableness of the working place. Because of these, students usually narrow down their selections, thus making it harder to find a proper job. For example, most students want to work in cities or in coastal areas, such as Shanghai, Beijing or Guangzhou. Although talents are badly needed in some western provinces, the graduates are unwilling to go there. This naturally makes it hard to find a job in some areas and hard to find a talent in some other areas.
Another reason is that the majors some students study in universities do not fit in with the demands of the vacant jobs. As the society is developing so quickly, university cannot catch up with it and offer courses to satisfy all requirements. Besides, there are some majors where not many graduates are needed but are admitting many students each year. When these students graduate, they may find that there are almost no vacancies that really need their knowledge. Majors like history or philosophy are examples of this type.
The last reason is that some employers raise too strict requirements on graduates. Because students stay on campus, most of them do not have time to work. But most companies just want to employ people with at least two-year working experience. This can keep many students from applying for the jobs. Some employers also just want boys, and then the girls will lose the chance of applying for the jobs.
From the above discussion, we can see that students, universities, and employers should all be responsible for the problems in the job market. To solve the problem, graduates should hold reasonable expectations, university should offer courses to meet the latest requirements of the society and flexibly adjust admission policy, and employers should raise sensible requirements on candidates. If all these three parties make joint efforts, university students will soon find that finding a job is not as hard as they expected.解析：
这道题要求谈论原因，即why it is hard for university students to find a job。作者从学生个人的期望值过高、学校课程陈旧和雇主要求太高三个方面进行了阐述，要点合理恰当。引言段采用对照法开头，用一个问题引出讨论主题，保证了文章中心思想的清晰明了。正文段中，作者按照个人、学校、社会三个方面的顺序安排要点，符合由小到大的顺序，保证了文章的通顺。论据方面，除了推理以外，我们还可以发现很多例子，这就增强了文章的说服力。 -

第7题：
问答题在巴黎，名目繁多的酒会是广交朋友的好机会。在这种场合陌生人相识，如果是亚洲人，他们往往开口之前先毕恭毕敬地用双手把自己的名片呈递给对方，这好像是不可缺少的礼节。然而，法国人一般不大主动递送名片，双方见面寒喧几句，甚至海阔天空地聊一番也就各自走开，只有当双方谈话投机，希望继续交往时，才会掏出名片。二话不说先递名片反倒有些勉强。正确答案：
【参考译文】
In Paris cocktail parties and buffet receptions of various kinds are great opportunities for people to meet each other and make friends with each other. Strangers can make acquaintance with each other on such occasions. Overseas Asians would like to respectfully present others their calling cards with their hands, even before they say hello to each other. And this seems to be an indispensable courtesy on their part. By contrast, most Frenchmen are not likely to do that when they meet. They may greet each other, and sometimes even have a casual chat before they leave. Only when they find they have something in common and want to further their relationship, will they exchange their calling cards. It seems rather embarrassing for them to be presented a calling card before opening their mouth.解析： 暂无解析 -

Bpoint out the greatness, braveness and roughness of his activities.
Cpoint out that public monuments could reflect the image of one country.
Dillustrate that it gave us the impression of brave rough English Admiral.
正确答案： C解析：
推断题根据关键词Sir Cloudesly Shovel可定位到文章最后一段。本段通过列举Sir Cloudesly Shovel和一个荷兰人的例子表明，外国人容易从公众纪念碑和铭文中对一个民族产生或无知或礼貌的印象，因此选项C正确。由该段第三句可知，Sir Cloudesly Shovel的墓碑与传统的海军上将不同，并没有显示出朴实英勇的特征，也不会给人留下坚毅的印象，由此可排除A、B、D项。故答案为Ｃ项。 -

问答题一个人可以游遍天下山山水水，然而梦境里出现的，往往不是什么名川佳境，而是幼年走过的一条坎坷崎岖的小路，或是夏天曾经钻进去捉过蛤蟆的苇塘。记忆中的童年，总是笼罩着一种异样的色彩。甚至过去的痛苦，也有别于现实生活中的痛苦。就像一个人抚摸自己的疮疤：没有了生理上的疼痛，剩下的却只是一片仿佛还颇值得骄傲的平滑而光润的疤痕。正确答案：
【参考译文】
A man may have traveled all over the world, but what often emerge in his dreams are not the famous mountains he has climbed nor the oceans he has crossed, but the narrow, winding lanes he used to pass through or the marshes where he used to catch frogs when he was a child. Memories of one’s early days are invariably tinged with a peculiar color. Even remembered pain is quite different from actual, present pain. It is like caressing one’s scar; the physical pain is gone, and one rather feels a little proud of the smooth and shiny blotch.解析： 暂无解析 -

问答题父亲说他根本想不到我会怕那幅挂在墙上的复制品，他说你为什么不看挂在旁边的世界地图，中国地图，或者我的图纸，你为什么要看那幅画像?最后他说，那么，你为什么会那么怕她? 很多人问过我这个问题，多问一次，我的恐惧就减少一次。我没有办法回答这个问题。就像我不明白在那么小，几乎还不怎么会说话的时候，我的父亲为什么用这么一种方式来对付我的哭泣。因为太害怕，其实到现在我都没仔细看过这个女人，然而有关童年的记忆，最清晰的，就只有这个女人的画像。正确答案：
Father said he had never imagined I would be afraid of that reproduction hanging on the wall. He said, why didn’t you look at the world map hanging next to it, the map of China, or my blueprints? Why did you have to look at that portrait? Finally he said, why were you so afraid of her?

第19题：
问答题The modern Olympic Games are the leading international sporting event nowadays. However, there are constant voices to call for stopping the Olympic Games. The followings are opinions on whether we should abolish the Olympics from different media. Read them carefully and write your response in about 300 words, in which you should: 1. summarize briefly the arguments on both sides; 2. give your comment. Marks will be awarded for content relevance, content sufficiency, organization and language quality. Failure to follow the above instructions may result in a loss of marks.http://camilla.com.au/ The Olympic charter’s call for a “peaceful society” and the “preservation of human dignity” is a very noble one, but its means are rather odd. Through fierce athletic competition between nations, individual rivalries between athletes, who, training for 75% of their waking life, probably play a very little role in their society anyway. The Olympics is an arena for individual achievement: however, if someone is to win a race, others must lose. Emphasis is not placed on athletes improving their personal best but on who wins. Having many nations come together shows worldwide solidarity, but it is a strange sort of solidarity, nations united by their athletes in Lycra and branded shoes. The cultures of nations are shown by little more than flag waving and the appearance of their mascots.The Guardian The original “spirit” of the Olympics was supposedly that of sporting competition between amateurs who competed for the honor of doing so, and to test themselves against the best sportspeople from around the world. However, the Olympics has become ever more commercialized, high-jacked by corporations and turned into a giant advertising hoarding. The kinds of moneys and rewards potentially available from excelling on the international stage has served to incentivise not only professionalization, also corruption and cheating. The professed aspirations of the Olympic movement and the grubby reality of the contemporary Olympics are now utterly opposed.The New York Times Citizens of the host city, often uninterested in the Olympic spectacle, can end up having to foot the bill by paying extra taxes, or having their existing taxes routed away from other services. The construction of Olympic facilities, company investment and the regeneration of areas in host cities can be very disruptive, pricing local residents and shopkeepers out of their areas. Building an Olympic site can necessitate the demolition of homes and historical places. Previous Olympics have shown that Olympic resources, when the games are over, do not always benefit the host city or society. Olympic sites can become ghost towns, so characteristic of the year they were built in as to be aesthetically odd, impractical, inhospitable and unfashionable a decade later.TIME The athletes competing in the Olympic games have worked hard for years, showing dedication to achieving physical greatness. They keep to a strict diet, and put in hundreds of hours training in a week, all for the honor of competing against the best athletes in the world. Those that are caught cheating are dealt with harshly, which teaches against honesty and dedication to one’s dreams. Athletes dedicate the best part of their lives to this ideal, by constantly improving their performance. Individual performance stands here for “celebration of collective values”—including that of fair competition. Individual athletes represent whole nations—their competing actualizes transnational togetherness and the search for commonality and global cooperation. Above all, the Olympic spirit is a beacon of hope. Countless times the games have instilled hope and togetherness in many. In a world of growling animosity, it is encouraging to see a sense of peace and togetherness gather every four years.正确答案：
【参考范文】
The Olympic Games Shouldn’t Be Abolished There are different voices about whether the modern Olympic Games should be abolished. As the article covered on The Guardian,the modern Olympic Games are highly commercialized, prohibitively costly, and void of social benefits. So these people think that this global event should better be cancelled. On the other hand, the Olympic Games advocate world peace, friendship and hope, media like TIME believes that it is of great significance to hold Olympic Games. As a huge sports fan, I am strongly against the idea of abolishing this global sports gala.
The movement should have its own place in the international community mainly for three reasons. Firstly, the Olympic Games provide an international arena for players from all over the world to compete with each other, show human talents and challenge physical limit. Through participating in the Olympic Games, people break more and more records. It is someone’s dream to win an Olympic medal after years of training and whenever we meet problems, we will draw upon the spirit of “faster, higher and stronger”. Besides, the Games can also promote mutual communication between different countries. Thirdly, the influx of foreign visitors would greatly facilitate the development of the economy in the host city and in order to make the full use of Olympic facilities, we are building more practical facilities.
In conclusion, we humanity would suffer a great loss if modern Olympic Games be abolished. As for some fixable issues, such as resources wasting, we are figuring out ways to deal with that with the help of modern technology. It is unwise to throw the baby out with the bath water. The Olympic Games are a vital platform for us to excel ourselves and forge abounds cross national borders.解析：

第21题：
问答题Demographic indicators show that Americans in the postwar period were moreeager than ever to establish families. They quickly brought down the age at marriagefor both men and women and brought the birth rate to a twentieth century height 1．_______after more than a hundred years of a steady decline, producing the” baby boom.” 2．_______These young adults established a trend of early marriage and relatively largefamilies that went for more than two decades and caused a major but temporary 3．_______reversal of longterm demographic patterns. From the 1940s through the early1960s, Americans married at a high rate and at a younger age than their 4．_______Europe counterparts. 5．_______ Less noted but equally more significant, the men and women who formed 6．_______families between 1940 and 1960 nevertheless reduced the divorce rate after a 7．_______postwar peak; their marriages remained intact to a greater extent than did that of 8．_______couples who married in earlier as well as later decades. Since the United States 9．_______maintained its dubious distinction of having the highest divorce rate in the world,the temporary decline in divorce did not occur in the same extent in Europe. 10．_______Contrary to fears of the experts, the role of breadwinner and homemaker was notabandoned.正确答案：
1.height改为high或peak。 height高度,海拔。high高水平,高峰。peak山峰,最高点。

6.去掉equally或more。 equally和more不能连用。
7.nevertheless改为also。 这里要表达与前文相似的情况,所以要用表示“也,同样”之意的also。
8.that改为those。 这里要用those来替代前文的marriages。

But as soon as it can providetechnology, it is not necessarily harmful. No society has yet learned to forecast 10．_______the consequences of new technology, which can be enormous.正确答案：
1.which改为where或在which前加in 此处需要一个状语从句,而不是which引导的定语从句。
2.as改为than 上文more必须与than搭配,构成比较状语从句。
3.So改为But/However/Nevertheless 根据上下文可知这里是转折关系。
4.去掉about explain是及物动词。
5.you改为they 此处的先行词是the kids。
6.like改为as such as是固定搭配。
7.takes改为gives give rise to是固定搭配,表示“引起,导致”之意。
8.differ改为distinguish differ表示“有区别”,这里要用distinguish,表示“区分,找出……的差别”。
