Passage One
In college, time is scarce, and consequently, very precious. At the same time, expenses in college pile up surprisingly quickly. A part time job is a good way to balance costs while ensuring there is enough time left over for both academic subjects and after-class activities.
If you are a college student looking for a part time job, the best place to start your job search is right on campus. There are tons of on-campus job opportunities, and as a student, you’ll automatically be given hiring priority. Plus, on-campus jobs eliminate commuting time, and could be a great way to connect with academic and professional resources at your university. Check with your school’s career service or employment office for help to find a campus job. Of course, there are opportunities for part-time work off-campus, too. If you spend a little time digging for the right part time jobs, you’ll save yourself time when you find a job that leaves you with enough time to get your school work done, too. If you are a college student looking for work but worry you won’t have enough time to devote to academic subjects, consider working as a study hall or a library monitor. Responsibilities generally include supervising study spaces to ensure that a quiet atmosphere is maintained. It’s a pretty easy job, but one with lots of downtime-which means you will have plenty of time to catch up on reading, do homework or study for an exam.
Q16: What does the speaker say about college students applying for on-campus jobs?
Q17: What can students do to find a campus job according to the speaker?
Q18: What does the speaker say is a library monitor’s responsibility?
Passage Two
Agricultural workers in green tea fields near Mt. Kenya are gathering the tea leaves. It is beautiful to see. The rows of tea bushes are straight. All appears to be well. But the farmers who planted the bushes are worried. Nelson Kibara is one of them. He has been growing tea in the Kerugoya area for 40 years.
He says the prices this year have been so low that he has made almost no profit. He says he must grow different kinds of tea if he is to survive.
Mr. Kibara and hundreds of other farmers have been removing some of their tea bushes and planting a new kind of tea developed by the Tea Research Foundation of Kenya. Its leaves are purple and brown. When the tea is boiled, the drink has a purple color. Medical researchers have studied the health benefits of the new tea. They say it is healthier than green tea and could be sold for a price that is three to four times higher than the price of green tea.
But Mr. Kibara says he has not received a higher price for his purple tea crop.
He says the market for the tea is unstable and he is often forced to sell his purple tea for the same price as green tea leaves. He says there are not enough buyers willing to pay more for the purple tea.
Q19. Why have tea farmers in Kenya decided to grow purple tea?
Q20. What do researchers say about purple tea?
Q21. What does Mr. Kibara find about purple tea?
Passage Three
Today's consumers want beautiful handcrafted s to wear and to have for their home environment. They prefer something unique and they demand quality. Craftsmen today are meeting this demand. People and homes are showing great change as more and more unique handcrafted items become available. Handcrafts are big business. No long does a good craftsman have to work in a job he dislikes all day and then try to create at night. He has earned his professional status. He is now a respected member of society. Parts of the fun of being a craftsman is meeting other craftsmen. They love to share their ideas and materials and help others find markets for their work. Craftsmen have helped educate consumers to make wise choices. They help them become aware of design and technique. They help them relate their choice to its intended use. They often involve consumers in trying the craft themselves. When a group of craftsmen expends to include more members, a small craft organization is formed. Such an organization does a lot in training workshops in special media, craft marketing techniques, craft fairs and sales, festivals, TV appearances and demonstrations. State art councils help sponsor local arts and crafts festivals which draw crowds of tourist consumers. This boosts the local economy considerably because tourists not only buy crafts, but they also use the restaurants and hotels and other services of the area.
Q22. What does the speaker say about today's consumers?
Q23. What does the speaker say about a good craftsman in the past?
Q24. What do craftsmen help consumers do?
Q25. Why do state art councilshelp sponsor local arts and crafts festivals?

News report 1
聽力原文：
【Q1】A poisonous fish which has a sting strong enough to kill a human is invading the Mediterranean, warned scientists. The International Union for the Conservation of Nature (UICN) has raised concerns after the poisonous fish was spotted in the waters around Turkey, Cyprus and the eastern Mediterranean. Native to the South Pacific and Indian Ocean, the potentially deadly fish has poisonous hooks and a painful sting capable of killing people. Although fatalities are rare, the stings can cause extreme pain and stop people breathing. The fish, often known as Devil Firefish, is a highly invasive species. 【Q2】And environmentalists fear its arrival could endanger other types of marine life. After being spotted in the Mediterranean, a marine scientist says,“The fish is spreading, and that’s a cause for concern.”
題目：
Q1: What is reported in the news?
A)A deadly fish has been spotted in the Mediterranean waters.
B) Invasive species are driving away certain native species.
C)The Mediterranean is a natural habitat of Devil Firefish.
D)Many people have been attacked by Devil Firefish.
解析：
A選項為正確答案。新聞題的第一題尤其是主旨題的正確答案往往在第一句，考點是選項關鍵詞fish、Mediterranean出現在第一句原文。難點是同意替換了poisonous以及strong enough to kill a human有毒的,足以讓一個人喪命就等同於題目的deadly。B選項invasive為誤導詞跟原文中invading相對應但文中説的是一條魚a fish並非species多個物種，此外並未提及driving away 和native species。而C、D選項中的Devil Firefish 所出現的位置過於靠後，不符合順序出題原則，且並未提及natural habitat 和 people have been attacked故排除。
題目：
Q2: What is the environmentalists’ concern of the spread of Devil Firefish in the Mediterranean?
A) It could add to greenhouse emissions.
B)It could disrupt the food chains there.
C)It could pose a threat to other marine species.
D)It could badly pollute the surrounding waters.
解析：
C選項為正確答案。考點錯誤答案排除以及同意替換。文中並未提及A選項的greenhouse emissions、B選項的food chains、D選項的pollute surrounding waters. 且正確答案C選項中 endanger other types of marine使其他海洋生物有危險等同於pose a threat to other marine species.對其他海洋物種有威脅。
News report 2
【Q3】Almost half the centre of Paris will be accessible only by foot or bicycle this Sunday to mark World Car-Free Day.【Q4】This is in response to rising air pollution that made Paris the most polluted city in the world for a brief time. Mayor Anne Hidalgo promoted the first World Car Free Day last year. Hidalgo also has supported a Paris Breathes Day. On the first Sunday of every month, Paris clears traffic from eight lanes of the main road. About 400 miles of streets will be closed to cars. It is expected to bring significant reduction in pollution levels. ‘Last year’s car-free day showed a 40% drop in pollution levels in some parts of the city, according to an independent air pollution monitor’, reports the Guardian, ‘and some levels dropped by 50% in the city centre.’
題目：
Q3: What will happen on World Car Free Day in Paris?
A) Cars will not be allowed to enter the city.
B) About half of its city center will be closed to cars.
C) Buses will be the only vehicles allowed on its streets.
D) Pedestrians will have free access to the city.
解析：
B選項為正確答案。新聞題第一道題的正確答案位置大多在第一句，定位詞half centre.考點為同意替換 almost=about, centre of Paris= city center, accessible only by foot or bicycle以及car-free= closed to cars只有步行或自行車可以進入以及無車替換對於汽車不開放。難點為free此時是無的意思又比如sugar free無糖，而非自由。C、D選項中的buses和pedestrains均未提及。誤導選項為A並非車不可以進入城市而是城市中心。
題目：
Q4: What motivated the mayor of Paris to promote the first World Car Free Day in her city?
A) The rising air pollution in Paris.
B) The worsening global warming.
C) The ever-growing cost of petrol.
D) The unbearable traffic noise.
解析：
A選項為正確答案。定位詞rising air pollution以及Paris與原文一致。此外BCD三個選項中的 global warming、cost of petrol、traffic noise均未提及。難點為正確答案就在聽力原文中的'第二句，故得出第一題的答案切勿停留，集中注意力在下一道題的選項關鍵詞上。也可通過排除法做題。
News report 3
【Q5】A Philippine fisherman was feeling down on his luck when a house fire forced him to clear out his possessions and change locations. Then, a good luck charm that he had kept under his bed changed his life.
The unidentified man had fished out a giant pearl from the ocean when his anchor got stuck on the rock while sailing off a coastal island in the Philippines ten years ago.
【Q6】When he was forced to sell it, the shocked tourist agent at Puerto Princesca told him that 【Q7】the 77-pound giant pearl that he had kept hidden in his rundown wooden house was the biggest pearl in the world, which was valued at 76 million.
The pearl of Allah, which is currently on display in a New York museum, only weighs 14 pounds. That is five times smaller than the pearl that the fisherman just handed in.
The monstrous pearl, measured at 1 foot wide and 2.2 feet long, is going to be verified by local experts and international authorities before hopefully going on display to attract more tourists in the little town.
題目:
Q5: What happened to the Philippine fisherman one day?
A) Many of his possessions were stolen.
B) His house was burnt down in a fire.
C) His fishing boat got wrecked on a rock.
D) His good luck charm sank into the sea.
解析：
B選項為正確答案。新聞題第一道題的正確答案往往在第一句。定位詞house fire。考點為推理大火迫使他清走財產以及轉移到其他地方推理出他的房子被燒燬。其中難點是D選項中的good luck與原文中feeling down on his luck倒黴，剛好是反義詞。A選項並未説個人財產被偷were stolen。也未提及C選項中漁船破壞。
題目:
Q6: What was the fisherman forced to do?
A) Change his fishing locations.
B) Find a job in a travel agency.
C) Spend a few nights on a small island.
D) Sell the pearl he had kept for years.
解析：
D選項為正確答案。定位詞 sell pearl.其中B、C選項均未提及，但A選項change location 為誤導選項，並未説釣魚的地點需更換且change location都出現在第一句，根據順序出題原則以及絕大多數新聞題的特徵每道題對應不同的答案句，故排除。
題目:
Q7: What did the fisherman learn from the tourist agent?
A) A New York museum has the largest pearl.
B) The largest pearl in the world weighs 14 pounds.
C) His monstrous pearl was extremely valuable.
D) His pearl could be displayed in a museum.
解析：
C選項為正確答案。較難題，題目存在2處同意轉述，其中monstrous=giant, extremely valuable= 76 million. AB選項均不對.D選項雖然正確但是並非是tourist agent所説，故為誤導選項。
Section B

A) It boasts a fairly long history.
B) It produces construction materials.

解析：
A選項為正確答案。對話題注意第一個回合及雙方各説一段，尤其注意是否存在問句，問句後的答案極有可能是正確答案，就比如這道題，定位詞history.這道題的考點是詞彙boast表示以…為豪，以相當長的歷史為豪對應原文擁有75年的歷史。此外B選項並未提及construction materials。CD兩個選項均為誤導信息，一般信息為真一般為未提及C選項並非是75 offices，D選項並非50 business partners。
題目：
Q9: What does the man say about his own company?
A) It has about 50 employees.
B) It was started by his father.
C) It is a family business.

Q10: What is the main problem with the man’s company?
A) Shortage of raw material supply.
B) Legal disputes in many countries.
C) Outdated product design.
D) Loss of competitive edge.

D選項為正確答案。視聽基本一致，competitive edge=competitive advantage. 當聽力材料説到這道題C選項中的design就暗示即將出現正確答案。其他選項中的信息均未提及。
題目：
Q11: What does the woman suggest doing to help the man’s company?
A) Conducting a financial analysis for it.
B) Providing training for its staff members
C) Seeking new ways to increase its exports.

Conversation 2
Woman: Wow, congratulations, Simon! The place looks absolutely amazing!
Man: Really? You think so?
W: Of course. I love it. It looks like you had a professional interior designer. But you didn’t, did you?
M: No. I did it all by myself with a little help from my brother, Greg. He’s actually in the construction business, which was really helpful.
W: 【Q12】Honestly, I’m impressed! I know I can probably repaint the walls in my house over a weekend or something, but not a full renovation. Where did you get your ideas? I wouldn’t know where to start.
M: 【Q13】Well, for a while now, I’ve been regularly buying home design magazines. Every now and then, I’d saved the pictures I liked. Believe it or not, I have a full notebook of magazine pages. Since by overall style was quite minimal, I thought and hoped a whole renovation wouldn’t be too difficult. And sure enough, with Greg’s help, it was very achievable.
W: Wasn’t it expensive? I have imagined a project like this could be.
M: 【Q14】Actually, it was surprisingly affordable. I managed to sell a lot of my old furniture and put that extra money towards the new material. Greg was also able to get some discount materials from a recent project he was working on as well.
W: Great! If you don’t mind, I’d like to pick your brain a bit more. 【Q15】Johansson and I are thinking of renovating our sitting room, not the whole house, not yet anyway. And we’d love to get some inspiration from your experience. Are you free to come over for a coffee early next week?
Q12: What do we learn about the woman from the conversation?
A) She is a real expert at house decorations.
B) She is well informed about the design business.
C) She is attracted by the color of the sitting room.
D) She is really impressed by the man’s house.
解析：
D選項為正確答案。這道題的難點在於答案並非在對話最開始，但開頭的信息同樣重要，開頭女人祝賀了男人且女人説I’m really impressed!得知這句話是對男人説的對應D選項。B選項為誤導信息但並未提及女人瞭解design business.其他選項信息均未提及。
題目：
Q13: Where did the man get his ideas for the project?
A) From his younger brother Greg.
B) From home design magazines.
C) From a construction businessman.
D) From a professional interior designer.
解析：

題目：
Q14: What did the man say about the project he recently completed?
A) The effort was worthwhile.
B) The style was fashionable.
C) the cost was affordable.
D) the effect was unexpected.
題目：
C選項為正確答案。視聽基本一致。在分析選項時考生需集中注意力於每個選項的形容詞 worthwhile, fashionable, affordable, unexpected。其中原文只提及了affordable.
Q15: Why does the woman invite the man to her house next week?
A) She’d like him to talk with Jonathan about a new project.
B) She wants him to share his renovation experience with her.
C) She wants to discuss the house decoration budget with him.
D) She’d like to show him around her newly-renovated house.
解析：

Section C
Passage 1
【Q16】Removing foreign objects from ears and noses costs England almost 3m a year, a study suggests. Children were responsible for the vast majority of cases - 95% of objects removed from noses and 85% from ears. Every year, an average of 1,218 nose and 2,479 ear removals took place between 2010 and rding to England's Hospital Episode Statistics, children aged one to four were the most likely to need help from doctors for a foreign object in their nose. 【Q17】Five to nine year olds come to the hospital with something in their ear the most. Jewelry items accounted for up to 40% of cases in both the ears and noses of children. Paper and plastic toys were the items removed next most from noses. Cotton buds and pencils were also found in ears.
【Q18】According to the study, the occurrence of foreign objects in children is generally attributed to curiosity. Children have an impulse to explore their noses and ears. This results in the accidental entry of foreign ear, nose and throat surgeon has many weird stories about wonderful objects found in the noses and ears of children and adults. Batteries can pose a particular danger. In all cases, prevention is better than cure. This is why many toys contain warnings about small parts. Recognizing problems early and seeking medical attention is important.
題目：
Q16: What does England spend an annual 3m on?
A) Providing routine care for small children.
B) Paying hospital bills for emergency cases.
C) Doing research on ear, nose and throat diseases.
D) Removing objects from patients’ noses and ears.
解析：
D選項為正確答案。視聽基本一致。聽力篇章第一道題的答案往往在前三句，需要考生集中注意力聽開頭的每一句，一邊聽一邊對應選項中的關鍵詞，其中removing, objects noses, ears四個單詞都與原文重合。得出答案就緊盯下一道題的關鍵詞。
題目：
Q17: What do we learn from England's Hospital Episode Statistics?
A) Many children like to smell things they find or play with.
B) Many children like to put foreign objects in their mouths.
C) Five-to nine-year-olds are the most likely to put things in their ears.
D) Children aged one to four are often more curious than older children.
解析：
C選項為正確答案。這道題屬於視聽基本一致，存在同意替換，其中things這個詞包括文章中的Jewelry items ,paper and plastic toys, cotton buds and pencils，其他選項中的詞都可以在文章中定位到，例如：赤橙黃綠青藍紫都屬於顏色，所以不算難。
題目：
Q18: What is generally believed to account for children putting things in their ears or noses?
A) They tend to act out of impulse.
B) They want to attract attention.
C) They are unaware of the potential risks.
D) They are curious about these body parts.
解析：
D選項為正確答案。According to the study, report, research, survey這樣的表達後極容易出現正確答案，可以通過此短語幫助定位。這道題的難點是詞性的改變curious在文中是curiosity. B,C選項均未提及，誤導選項是A中的impulse，而這個選項的錯誤點在於並不是孩子們往往很衝動，而是他們對於探索他們身體的部分尤其是耳朵和鼻子很衝動。
Passage 2
Good morning, I’d like to talk to you about my charity ReBicycle. But before that, let me introduce someone. This is Leila was so scared when she first moved to New Zealand that she struggled to leave the house and would spend days working up the courage to walk to the supermarket for basic r a few months of being quite down and unhappy, she was invited to join a local bike club.【Q19】At this time, ReBicycle got involved and gave Leila a second-hand bicycle. In weeks, her depression had begun to ease as she cycled. The bicycle totally changed her life, giving her hope and a true feeling of freedom.
【Q20】To date, ReBicycle has donated more than 200 bikes to those in need, and is now expanding bike-riding lessons as demand soars. With a bike, you can travel farther but for almost no cost. Thethree hours a day that used to spend on walking to and from English language lessons has been reduced to just one hour. Our bike-riding lessons are so successful that we are urgently looking for more volunteers. Learning to ride a bike is almost always more difficult as an adult, and this can take days and weeks, rather than hours. 【Q21】So, if any of you have some free time during the weekend, please come join us at ReBicycle and make a difference in someone’s life.
題目：
Q19: What did ReBicycle do to help Leila Rahimi?
A) It paid for her English lessons.
B) It gave her a used bicycle.
C) It delivered her daily necessities.
D) it provided her with physical therapy.
解析：
D選項為正確答案。視聽基本一致存在同意轉述的情況used bicycle=second hand bicycle.但這道題的難點在於第一題的正確答案句靠後，所以考生需集中注意力聽四個選項中的關鍵詞，A,C,D中的信息均未提及。
題目：
Q20: What is ReBicycle doing to help those in need?
A) Expanding bike-riding lessons.
B) Asking local people for donations.
C) Providing free public transport.
D) Offering walking tours to visitors.
解析：

題目：
Q21: What do we learn from the passage about the ReBicycle?
A) It is a language school.
B) It is a charity organization.
C) It is a counseling center.
D) It is a sports club.
解析：
B選項為正確答案。推理題，難點在於需要聽懂文章的內容，並且知道四個選項中的關鍵詞的含義，以及需要聽問題，根據文章中的內容這是一個慈善組織，其中A選項為誤導選項不聽問題極容易選擇這個選項，這個選項説的是文中的小女孩的通勤上學時間而非ReBicycle是什麼，故排除。
Passage 3
Thanks to the International Space Station we know quite a bit about the effects of low gravity on the human body, but NASA scientists want to learn more. 【Q22】To that end, they have been studying how other species deal with low gravity, specifically focusing on results are both interesting and humorous.
The scientists first send some mice in a specially designed cage to the International Space Station. The cage allowed them to study the behavior of the mice remotely from Earth via video. 【Q23】As you noticed in the video, the mice definitely seem uncomfortableat the beginning of the experiment. They move around clumsily, drifting within the small confines of the cage and do their best to figure out which way is up, but without success. 【Q24】However, it’s not long before the mice begin to catch on. They adapt remarkably well to their new environment and even using the lack of gravity to their advantage as they push themselves around the cage.
That’s when things really get 11thdayof the experiment shows the mice are not just dealing with the gravity change but actually seem to be enjoying it. Several of the mice are observed running around the cage walls.
【Q25】The scientists wanted to see whether the mice would continue doing the same kinds of activities they were observed doing on study showed thatthe mice kept much of their routines intact, including cleaning themselves and eating when hungry.
Q22 What do Nasa scientists want to learn about?
A) How mice imitate human behavior in space.
B) How gravity affects the human body.
C) How mice interact in a new environment.
D) How animals deal with lack of gravity.

題目：
Q23 What does the passage say about the miceat the beginning ofthe experiment?
A) They were not used to the low-gravity environment.
B) They found it difficult to figure out where they were.
C) They found the space in the cage too small to stay in.
D) They were not sensitive to the changed environment.
解析：
A選項為正確答案。較難題，屬於同意替換。首先需要分析選項和畫選項中的關鍵詞，A選項它們不適應失重環境。B選項它們很難去想明白他們身處在哪裏。C選項它們覺得它們所處的籠子的空間太小以至於容不下它們.D選項他們對於所換的環境並不敏感。BCD均未提及，文中老鼠們起初感覺很不舒服在這樣的環境下跟A選項相符。

D) They changed their routines in space.
解析：
B選項為正確答案。根據順序出題原則比較容易在文章末尾定位正確答案句，但這道題仍屬於較難題同意替換題，分析選項信息用排除法也會發現並未提及A選項的repeated和every day,以及C選項中的eat less 和D選項的change routines.B選項老鼠們表現的就好像它們在地球上一樣等同於文中科學家好奇老鼠的日常行為時候和在地球一樣，研究表明老鼠們的日程大都不變，故選B。
