As you listen, answer Questions 1 to 10 by circling TRU

18、E or FALSE.（分数：30.00）(1).Quantum will still be on air as the last programs of it are still in the making and are to be shown as scheduled.（分数：3.00）A.正确 B.错误解析：听力原文 W: We have the news this morning that Quantum will no longer be seen on television on ABC television. Can you tell us the official reaso

19、n? M: Quantum will be seen on ABC television next year. The remaining programs in the series will go to air and are still being made in fact. I think the series will continue until about May, so Id like to think that viewers will continue to watch it until that point rather than thinking its unfair.

20、 Quantum has been around now for about 16 years. Its presented itself in various guises over the years. Its been a magazine program. Its been a documentary program. It had more reinventions than most television programs could ever imagine. But there comes a time in any programs life when it has reac

21、hed its use-by date. And my feeling and the feeling of others with an ABC science is that it could well be the title of the program Quantum. Thats holding back more innovative and relevant science programing on ABC television. We are going to rest for a while as a title and hopefully build up some n

22、ew and more exciting and more dynamic style of science television programing in its place. W: Will it be out-sourced? M: I mean this is a bit of nonsense. Thats going around at the moment. ABC television makes science programs in-house. We also commission programs from independent producers. The pro

23、gram that we will follow Quantum at its timeslot is a series on stress. I think its a six-part series, which was part of our contestable process. We have an opportunity for both independence and in-house producers to bid for those contestable programs. Its part of our transparent process of program

24、choice so that there is fairness. That program was selected by the former commissioning editor and I can only imagine it was because it was the best program that was submitted. We were also in the process of developing and negotiating some quite significant output deals and output deal means that we

25、 would make programs for other distribution agencies as well as ourselves. W: What will happen to the in-house people? M: We are hoping there will be more in-house production rather than less. Really what we have to do is we cant continue to make Quantum and spend most of our budget on Quantum and s

26、till make new and more exciting programs. I mean we need to redirect that money and reallocate those funds so that we can freshen up the science late for ABC. I mean we are absolutely committed to science programing on ABC television. W: Will there be any jobs lost from Quantum production union? M:

27、We were hoping to get up some news programs in the near future so some of those people may be able to be redeployed. There are some very talented staff that we would like to talk to about moving into the development unit. W: Listeners wonder if we can be sure that an out-sourced science program will

28、 be completely accurate and unbiased or not have any sort of input from a corporate source in any way. M: We have very strong editorial policies and guidelines that are to be followed. Any program thats made by independent producer outside of ABC is matched by an ABC executive producer who is there

29、to represent those policy issues. W: So ABCs commitment to science is not diminished. M: Not only it is not diminished, its actually stronger. Thats where we would like to think we are heading. The managing director has attempted to get more government funding so that we can actually achieve that.(2

34、is postgraduate studies. D. In his expedition into the wild.（分数：3.00）A.B. C.D.解析：听力原文 W: When did you first realize youd be able to make a career out of following your passion? M: Being a naturalist is the only thing Ive ever been interested in. I started out collecting birds eggs, keeping snakes an

35、d other creatures, but it wasnt until I went to university in the early 1950s that I discovered I can turn a boyhood pastime into a profession. I spent long months out with graduate students learning and just being in the wilderness. That was wonderful! So I stayed with it. W: Have you ever felt thr

36、eatened or frightened by an animal? M: Fear is mostly in retrospect. If you do something carelessly like getting too close to a tiger or a bear and frightening the animals, so it becomes aggressive. You respond in the best possible way and you know that in most instances, the animal gives you the be

37、nefit of the doubt. Its only afterwards that you shake your head and say how stupid you were. W: Your efforts have helped gain protection for many wildlife reserves across the world. How have you managed that? M: Natural history is the basis of all conservation because you need knowledge. I go out a

38、nd collect information on wildlife, the people, the condition of the habitat and I give it to the government department concerned and make suggestions. Then I try to follow up. Sometimes it works; sometimes it doesnt. One of the real mistakes in the conservation movement in the last few years is the

39、 tendency to see nature simply as natural resources. Use it or lose it. Yet conservation without moral values cant sustain itself unless we reach people through beauty, ethics, spiritual values or whatever. We are not going to keep our wilderness areas.(2).When does Mr Schaller feel scared of wild a

42、n. C. The original version was based on the observations of gorillas. D. The original version was a Disney product.（分数：3.00）A. B.C.D.解析：听力原文 W: Welcome to our show, Andy. You know the audience is interested in comparing the two versions of King Kong. The original King Kong didnt exactly take a scien

43、tific approach to portraying gorilla behavior. Why go to such lengths to get it right this time? M: I dont think the film makers in 1933 were out to understand gorillas. In a sense, Kong was just a monster to them. The difference is that our film is not really a monster movie. Early on we decided we

44、 did not want a Disney-filed-humanized version of Kong. My job as an actor was to observe as much as I could and bring those observations to the character. W: What did the original get wrong? M: In the 1933 version, Kong walks around on two feet beating his chest with clenched fists. Actually, goril

45、las walk on their knuckles and feet and cup their hands to beat their chests when they are angry. Also, in the original, Kong goes around chewing peoples heads off. Now we know that gorillas diet is vegetation. W: So the new Kong is a vegan wimp? M: Not quite. Gorillas are still wild creatures. That

46、s made very clear when you observe them in nature. They charge and perform other displays that are terrifying by design. But they dont attack unless they feel threatened. W: What makes gorilla watch such a profound experience? M: There is something about seeing this totally peaceful society that has

47、 its own order and seems to work perfectly were it not for interference from humans. Its like sitting around with a chilled-out load of hippies. Theyll just have something to eat and then crash out for a bit and then have a little walk. Youre supposed to keep a seven-meter exclusion zone so that the

48、y dont catch diseases. But gorillas go wherever they want, so they go all around you. Its absolutely thrilling.(2).What mistake did Serkis find in the original version? A. Kong does not eat humans. B. Kong walks on his feet and knuckles. C. Kong beats his chest with fists. D. Kong lives on plants.（分数：3.00）A.B.C.
