Section A · 第 1–4 题197 秒

本题型 Directions（点击展开）

Directions: In this section, you will hear two long conversations. At the end of each conversation, you will hear four questions. Both the conversation 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.

0:00 - 0:01Conversation One.
0:01 - 0:04Hello, Doctor.
0:04 - 0:18Hello, please take a seat. I have your test results here, and it's good news. The blood test came back clear. There is no indication of any digestive issues.

Section A · 第 5–8 题187 秒

0:00 - 0:01Conversation Two.
0:01 - 0:20Today on People in the News, our guest is John Williams. The name may not sound familiar to you, but John was once an acclaimed basketball player. John, you stunned fans by leaving the sport at just 25. Why did you retire so early?
0:20 - 0:39Meg, I loved being an athlete, but I didn't love being a celebrity. I was in the limelight when I was still a high school student and went professional right after high school graduation, which was a mistake. I was a shy kid and I wasn't ready for all the media attention.

Section B · 第 9–11 题154 秒

本题型 Directions（点击展开）

Directions: In this section, you will hear two passages. At the end of each passage, you will hear three or four 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.

0:00 - 0:01Passage One.
0:01 - 0:33Kate Atkinson was born in York, England in 1951. She worked hard to gain her credentials as an author. She studied English literature at university in Scotland. After graduating in 1974, she researched a doctorate on American literature. Later, she taught at the university she graduated from and began writing short stories in 1981. She began writing for women's magazines after winning the 1986 Women's Own Short Story Competition.
0:33 - 0:57Her first novel, Behind the Scenes at the Museum, won the 1995 UK Book of the Year award. The book is set in Yorkshire and has been adapted for radio, theatre and TV. She has written two plays for a theatre in Edinburgh. The first was called Nice and the second, Abandonment, performed as part of the Edinburgh Festival in August 2000.

Section B · 第 12–15 题174 秒

0:00 - 0:01Passage Two.
0:01 - 0:24Why is adaptability an important skill to exercise in the workplace? Simply put, adaptability is a skill employers are increasingly looking for. When you spend time learning a new task rather than resisting it, your productivity goes up. You can also serve as an example to your co-workers who may be having trouble adapting, and can help lead your team forward.
0:25 - 0:51Strategy consultant Dory Clark explains it to us this way. I'd say that adaptability is an important skill in the workplace because, frankly, circumstances change. Competitors introduce new products. The economy might enter a recession. Customer preferences differ over time. If you shake your fist at the sky and say, why can't it stay the same, that's not going to do very much good.

Section C · 第 16–18 题214 秒

本题型 Directions（点击展开）

Directions: In this section, you will hear three recordings of lectures or talks followed by three or four questions. The recordings will be played 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.

0:00 - 0:01Recording One.
0:01 - 0:33What makes humans different from other species? Some philosophers argue it's morals or ethics, while some scientists assert it's our greater cognitive development. But I argue that the main difference is our desire to combat routine. This makes being creative a biological mandate, as what we seek in art and technology is surprise, not simply a fulfilment of expectations. As a result, a wild imagination has characterised the history of our species.
0:33 - 1:03We build intricate habitats, devise complex recipes for our food, wear clothes that reflect constant changes in fashion, communicate with elaborate signs, symbols and sounds, and travel between habitats on wings and wheels of our own design. To satisfy our appetite for novelty, innovation is key. But who innovates? Now, many people, both laymen and experts, believe that only geniuses innovate.

Section C · 第 19–21 题204 秒

0:00 - 0:01Recording Two.
0:01 - 0:35Many dog owners will tell you that their dog somehow knows when they're ill or upset. And, according to researchers who study dog cognition, those pet owners are right. Dogs do know when their human companions are having a rough time. Not only can your dog sense when you have a cold, but domestic dogs have shown an aptitude for detecting both much smaller mood fluctuations and far more serious physical conditions. This is because dogs are extremely sensitive to changes in the people they're familiar with, and illness causes change.
0:36 - 1:07If a person is infected with a virus or bacteria, for example, their odour will be abnormal, and dogs are able to smell that change even if the human can't, because dogs have a much more powerful sense of smell than humans. Researchers have also found that a person's mood, which can be an indicator of a larger illness, triggers a dog's sense of smell. Human emotions manifest physically in chemical signals that are emitted by the body, and dogs are able to smell those as well.

Section C · 第 22–25 题219 秒

0:00 - 0:01Recording Three.
0:01 - 0:49Earlier this month, the think tank called Onward published a report, A Question of Degree, which argues that degrees in the creative arts are not good value for money. Ministers, according to Onward, should crack down on courses that offer extremely limited value for money to students 10 years after graduation, restricting the ability of such courses to recruit new students if the average graduate earns below the student loans payment threshold. Courses like science, technology, engineering and maths, and economics, where the average graduate earns a lot, should be favoured. The report provides insight into a government review which looks at how to reform technical education and how to ensure students get good value for money.
0:50 - 1:23At first glance, it might even seem like Onward have a point. According to their data, the majority of creative arts students earn less than 25,000 pounds a year, 10 years after graduation. The average male creative arts students, indeed, apparently earn much less than they would had they simply never gone to university. This isn't really good for anyone, and it's certainly no good for graduates, who are forced to endure a lifestyle where they can never save up, never buy a house, never hope to retire.
