10、going to call him? sarah: Tom. Tom Lightfoot. It sounds quite good, dont you think? john: Yes, that has quite a good ring to it. sarah: You know hes quite a big baby. He weighed four and a quarter kilos when he was born. john: That does sound big, four and a quarter kilos. sarah: And hes long too, f
11、orty-six centimetres. john: Mmmm. Tall parents. Hell grow up to be over two metres, Id say. sarah: With masses of black hair, curly black hair. You know, we should go and visit them in hospital. What about tomorrow afternoon at around 1pm? john: Yes, OK. sarah: Where should we meet? . Ah, I could co

I remember now. john: So, youll pick me up at a quarter to one and well be there at one easily. sarah: Now what should we take? We must take them something. john: I always
14、 think flowers are good to take to someone in hospital, dont you? sarah: Well, not really. Everyone always brings flowers and they dont last. I think its much better to take a pot plant, so she can take it home with her. john: Yes, but then she has to remember to water it. What about a big box of ch
15、ocolates? sarah: OK, chocolates sound fine. We should get something for the baby too. What do you think? john: Yes, youre right. What do you think of something like baby shampoo or talcum powder?

Liz shearer: Well, hello. Yes, John, Ive been investigating four new household gadgets and
21、sorting out the advantages and disadvantages and then really deciding what are Must buys, what are Maybe buys and what are Never buys. Lets start with this vacuum flask for keeping drinks hot. Well. I felt this had quite a lot going for it, most of all is the fact that it contains no glass and is th
22、erefore unbreakable to all intents and purposes. Its made of stainless steel which is guaranteed for 20 years . hope thats long enough . and its true what the manufacturer claims - that it does maintain heat for 18 hours. So thats pretty good. On the down side, it really works out to be quite expens
23、ive and, much more surprisingly, it unfortunately leaves a strange taste . you know when youve drunk from it. so all in all, my recommendation would be its got plenty of advantages, but it is rather expensive so Id say you should maybe buy it. Moving on to a natty little device . the Whistle Key Hol
24、der. Basically this is where you whistle and the key holder gives off a high pitched noise and flashes light so you can find it. One advantage of this model is that it also has a small light. You press the button and this means you can find keyholes easily. I also felt the small size was a real adva
25、ntage. On the weaker side, I did find the noise unpleasant. Which Im sure the designers could have done something about. And I found that it didnt work through metal, so its mainly useful for finding in coat pockets, cushions, etc. But taken as a whole I thought it was a masterpiece of design and wo
26、uld highly recommend it. The third gizmo is called the Army Flashlight because it was developed initially for military use. It works by squeezing the handle to generate the power. Its advantages are that it can be used for outside activities, and also . and this is one of the surprising features. it
27、 does work underwater. My main objection to it though was although it did work in these conditions, this model gave off a weak light. So my recommendation Im afraid would have to be to avoid this one. The decoy camera was last on my list. This is a fake video camera which you fix to your wall to sca
28、re off burglars. The advantage of this model is something which makes it look very realistic . its flashing light. On the down side, it was quite difficult to fix to the wall. However, burglary is such a major problem these days that it is worth the effort, so this gets my strong recommendation. pre

I was just very anxious to hear what you think of it. You can see that I decided to change the topic -I had been interested in looking at Barings Factory.
31、 bryson: Oh, I think the hospital was a much better choice. In fact. well. I have to say that I thought it was good. amina: Oh? bryson: Theres still lots of work to be done . amina: Oh yes. of course. bryson: But theres plenty of good ideas. It opens well and the first chapter is fine but the middle
32、 section really stood out for me . most interesting. amina: Thats amazing because I really didnt find it a bit easy to write . bryson: How long did you work on the whole thing? amina: Well, I spent about two or three weeks reading and doing general research and then I dashed the writing off very qui
33、ckly . so about four weeks in all. bryson: Well, thats about par for the course. Youve got a while yet to make the changes. amina: Oh right. no problem . bryson: Right. Lets have a look at my notes here. OK. Starting with section headings . the broad divisions are good but youll have to re-do the ac

I can see why you put it there but it really isnt relevant to the approach youve taken. amina: I think I see what you mean. bryson: Now . what did I say about the interviews?
35、 amina: I worked very hard on those. I really thought they were valuable. bryson: They are, Amina, but theyre very complex and rather unclear at the moment. Youre going to have to spend a bit of time making the data a lot clearer. amina: OK . as long as I dont have to remove them altogether . bryson
36、: No, dont worry. amina: What about the chronology . the list of dates? I wasnt sure whether I should rewrite those. bryson: My advice on that is to take them out. I feel it makes the whole piece appear too simplistic. amina: OK, if itll help. bryson: Now, there are a couple of other books Id like y

41、 reading / proof read 30 【正确答案】 10 July ALTERNATIVE FORMS ACCEPTED 31 【听力原文】 Good afternoon. Im Paula Bundell and I am giving you the lectures on Environmental Noise this term. Today we are going to look into the effects of noise on a planned housing estate in a particularly difficult part of the ne
42、w Manchester Park area. This site is not as bad as some I have researched in the past. The Blacktown airport is closed from 6pm to 7am and this is a great advantage to the site. The only noise after dark is from the highway and the traffic is somewhat reduced between 7.30pm and 5.30am. So, the peopl
43、e most affected by the noise will be, I expect, housewives. By the time most of the students and workers have arrived back home in the evening during the week the noise will have abated to a fairly large extent. The weekends are still a problem of course, but the traffic is certainly reduced on Satu
44、rdays to a large extent and even more so on Sundays. Of course modifications to houses will be necessary at a site like this and they come at a significant cost to the developer and home buyer. The modifications I am about to outline will add about $25,000 to the price of a newly-built house. That w
45、ill still mean a cheaper house than in a less noisy and more desirable area. A bit of background would not go astray. I understand that you are all familiar with the proposed development site at Manchester Park. Its a particularly difficult one in terms of noise with the highway along the eastern pe
46、rimeter and the Blacktown airport not 3 kilometres away to the north. Of course, those nearest the highway will be the worst hit, with heavy traffic noise as well as the noise from the light planes overhead. As you all know, the normal noise threshold for private housing is 55 decibels. At this site
47、 the levels have been recorded as high as 67 decibels. The construction of the houses has to be somewhat modified from houses in most areas. In the houses on the highway and in the noisiest areas of this site there will be a need for specialised double glazing and special acoustic seals will have to
48、 be fitted to the doors. All exterior doors in this especially noisy pocket will have to be solid core wood doors with hinges. Every house built on this site, not just those adjacent to the highway or nearest to the airport, will require high density insulation materials in the roof. Not only will a
49、ll the roofs need insulating, the exterior walls will be required to be double brick. All ceilings will require double thickness plaster board to be used in the construction. In the noisiest areas mechanical ventilation will have to be installed in the exterior walls. In those areas with sealed windows it will be necessary to fit fans with absorbers to cut out the noise in those particular houses. Air conditioning units could also be fitted in t
