Norway and Japan killed over 1,000 whales in 1999 and they plan to kill even more. The Internationa

30、l Whaling Commission(IWC)has failed to stop the killing and a compromise deal may relax the ban allowing coastal whaling- condemning many thousands more whales to a cruel death. In 1994, the IWC created a whale sanctuary in Antarctic waters and many believed the battle to save the whales had been wo

31、n. But Japan has ignored the sanctuary and along with Norway continues to defy the whaling ban. As the environmental concerns increase, whaling is no longer the issue as it was or deserves to be. With little public awareness of the increasing whale slaughter, there has been no pressure to stop it. C

32、onsequently, the political will to confront the whalers and enforce the whaling ban has slipped away. Commercial whaling has devastated whale populations worldwide, pushing the entire species to the brink of extinction. There is still great scientific uncertainty about the size and status of remaini

33、ng whale populations. Whales are facing increasing threats to their survival including increasing toxic pollution, massive over-fishing, entanglement in fishing nets, boat collisions, habitat loss, ozone depletion and climate change. They need to be protected, not hunted. Commercial whaling is appal

34、lingly cruel and unnecessary. It is morally indefensible. It should be condemned to history, to a time when sadly we knew no better! 9. What does the speaker say about the death toll of whales after 1986? 10. How does the speaker describe scientific knowledge of whale populations? 11. What is the sp

35、eakers attitude towards whaling? 9 【正确答案】 B 【试题解析】 短文开头介绍，在 1986年出台了禁止商业捕鲸的政策之后，鲸鱼的死亡数字每年都呈上升趋势，故选 B。 【知识模块】 听力 10 【正确答案】 C 【试题解析】 短文谈到，对于现在鲸鱼的数量和情况如何，在科学上还有很多未知之数，也就是说科学家也不知道情况到底如何，故选 C。 【知识模块】 听力 11 【正确答案】 B 【试题解析】 原文说，商业捕鲸是残忍而且不必要的，在道德上也是站不住脚的，故选 B。 A项为强干扰项，其实只要看到该选项中表示绝 对的单词 All就可以排除干扰。 【知识模块】 听

36、力 12 【听力原文】 In the United States many have been told that anyone can become rich and successful if he works hard and has some good luck. When one becomes rich he wants people to know it. And even if he does not become very rich, he still wants people to think that he is. Thats what “Keeping up with

37、the Joneses“ is about. The expression was first used in 1913 by a young American named Arthur Momand. Momand looked around him and noticed that many people do things just to keep up with their neighbors: they try to look as rich and as successful as their neighbors. He saw the funny side of it and s

38、tarted to write a series of short stories. He called it “Keeping up with the Joneses“, because “Jones“ is a very common name in the United States. “Keeping up with the Joneses“ came to mean keeping up with people around you. Momands series appeared in different newspapers across the country for over

39、 32 years. People never seem to get tired of keeping up with the Joneses. That is one reason why they read the “right“ books, go to the “right“ universities and eat at the “right“ restaurants. Every city has an area where people want to live because others will think better of them if they do. And t

40、here are “Joneses“ in every city of the world. But one must get tired of trying to keep up with the Joneses, because no matter what one does, Mr. Jones always seems to be ahead. 12. According to the speaker, what impression do many Americans want to leave on others? 13. What does the expression “Kee

41、ping up with the Joneses“ mean? 14. How did the expression “Keeping up with the Joneses“ get popular? 15. What does the speaker think of the practice of “Keeping up with the Joneses“? 12 【正确答案】 B 【试题解析】 短文说，当人们富有了他们希望别人知道，甚至并不很富有时也希望别人认为他们富有，所以 B正确。 B项中的 well-off对应开头重复了 3遍的rich， achieve a lot对应录音中的

42、successful，同义替换是答案。 【知识模块】 听力 13 【正确答案】 D 【试题解析】 选项为努力达到某种目的，听到录音中的 try to时要注意后面的动词。短文说，这个习语的意思是 “和左邻右舍比排场，比阔气 ”。所以 D正确。选项中的 “try”就是最好的提示语， 录音中姆后面就是答案所在。 【知识模块】 听力 14 【正确答案】 A 【试题解析】 根据选项可预测题目问某事是如何广泛传播的。短文说， Momand的系列短篇小说在全美各家报纸上连载，长达 32年之久。可见这个习语就是这样广为流传的，所以 A正确。只有 A中的关键词 short stories in newspape

43、rs是录音提到的，听到什么选什么。 【知识模块】 听力 15 【正确答案】 C 【试题解析】 根据选项可预测题目问某事的影响。短文说，但是人们一定会对和邻居比阔气感到厌烦 的，所以 C正确。三个选项表达的是正面影响，只有 C是负面的，而录音末尾中的 tired与 C中的 exhaust同义。 【知识模块】 听力 Section C 16 【听力原文】 Mobility in developing world cities is a very peculiar challenge, because different from health or education or housing, it

44、 tends to get worse as societies become richer. Clearly, an unsustainable model. Mobility, as most other developing country problems, more than a matter of money or technology, is a matter of equality. The great inequality in developing countries makes it difficult to see, for example, that in terms

45、 of transport, an advanced city is not one where even the poor use cars, but rather one where even the rich use public transport There is a conflict for space between those with cars and those without them. We fought not just for space for buses, but we fought for space for people, and that was even

46、 more difficult. Cities are human habitats, and we humans are pedestrians. Just as fish need to swim or birds need to fly or deer need to run, we need to walk. I would like to focus on the really enormous conflict between pedestrians and cars in developing country cities. In terms of transport infra

47、structure, what really makes a difference between advanced and backward cities is not highways or subways but quality sidewalks. I will propose to you a couple of ingredients which I think would make cities much better, and it would be very simple to implement them in the new cities which are only b

48、eing created. Hundreds of kilometers of greenways criss-crossing cities in all directions. People will walk out of homes into safe spaces. They could go for dozens of kilometers safely in wonderful greenways, sort of bicycle highways. And the second ingredient, which would solve mobility, that very

49、difficult challenge in developing countries, in a very low-cost and simple way, would be to have hundreds of kilometers of streets only for buses, bicycles and pedestrians. This would be, again, a very low-cost solution if implemented from the start, low cost, pleasant transit with natural sunlight. But unfortunately, reality is not as good as my dreams. All developing country cities have a large problem of slums, which means illegal housing. And of course its very difficult to have mass transit or to use bicycles in such environments. But even legal housing develo
