Uh, I’m sorry this isn’t the normal way to start a new job, but as I told you over the phone, I wanted you to come in this evening to help get the shop reorganized before tomorrow. Boy: No problem. Girl: You'd better take out a few notes of what I’d like you to do. Boy: OK. Girl: Now, if you come over here to the entrance from the street you can get the complete picture. As»you Gan see we sell the usual range of electronic goods like televisions and. yideo recorders, and also CDs, DYDsyete., but we gonna start selling keyboards too, Boy: There doesn’t seem to be any room at all. Girl: There certainly isn’t much so we need to make space for them. They can go to the right of this door on those shelves against the wall but not beside the CDs. They'll be by the window so people will be able to see them from the street. http://shop112815301.taobao.com FER UP BA WESFEE UP ABATE a Boy: Right. Girl: Then I want all the DVDs, videos and the equipment for them close together, uh, lets put the DVD players right here next to the video recorders. If they’re against the front window they’ll be visible form the street, that should attract a few more potential costumers into the shop. Boy: And where shall I put the DVDs? Girl: They can go beside the videos. Boy: Against the sidewall? Girl: Yeah, we'll try them out in that position and see if it affects sales. Boy: Right. Girl: And I'd like the portable CD players in a more prominent position as they’re selling very well. Boy: Hm, how about by the CDs? Girl: Hm, that might be-an,idea; but its gonna get too crowded in that corer. I want to attract people to the back of the sales area so could you put them on the shelves facing the entrance please? Boy: Right. http://shop112815301.taobao.com FER UP BA WESWEE UP ABATE Be Girl: Good. Then, when all that’s been moved there are few other jobs to do. First the cassette players, sales of those are falling so I don’t want so many on display. There are eleven at the moment, and we really only need three so the other rate can go into the stock room. Boy: Right. Girl: Oh, and quite a lot of stock looks dusty to me so a rather boring job I'm afraid, we need to get everything clean. Boy: All right. Girl: And we're going to run special office on some DVDs so could you create some signs please? You said you quite a lot of collage? Boy: Yes, it’s something I enjoy doing. Which items are going to have the office? Girl: Let me try and-reniember what I worked out, uh, general. films’are selling strongly with a big rise last month: I don’t think we need to do anything about them, Boy: OK. Girl: But foreign language films are a different matter. Sales are creeping up very slowly so I want to encourage them. We'll run a three for the price of two promotion for a month and see what happens. http://shop112815301.taobao.com FER UP BA WESFEE UP ABATE a Boy: Right. What about classical music DVDs? Girl: Sales certainly aren’t too healthy. They're falling by 2 or 3% a month. I’d really like to give the category a boost so we'll bring all prices down by 5 pounds this month, Boy: OK, Girl: Then there are the TV programs. Comedy isn’t doing very well, last month sales were 10% below the level of last year. I’m inclined to leave it alone. I don’t think it’s worth doing anything until some new really popular comedy programs are released on DVD. Boy: Right. Girl: OK, that’s it, So, we better start moving things. Will you give me a hand with this? Section 2 Leader: Right. Now, let me bring you up to date with arrangements for our cycling tour next month. First of all there’s the question of tents, as you know the original idea was to side arrange to borrow some tents that http://shop112815301.taobao.com FER UP BA WESFEE UP ABATE a belong to the college but it tums out that the mountaineering club will be using them at the same time so I’m afraid you will have to bring your own. So, could you let me know whether you will be using a single tent or sharing, please. I’ll need to know how many tents there’ll be for when I make the reservation at the various campsites. Last time some of you said you would like to hire bikes and pick them up when you arrive rather than taking your own with you. Well, I’ve enquired about bike hiring in Westbury, the town where we'll be arriving, and unfortunately there aren’t any shops that hire them out so I’m afraid it means taking your own. I'll book them on the train when I book the train tickets, which reminds me, I'll need to know the final number of people going so I can get a group discount on the train fare. Something else that'll need to be book is tickets for the football match we discussed last time. I’ve enquired about availability and there are only.a few seats left so anyone who wants to gowill Heed to get tickets very soon, ideally today or tomorrow. At our next meeting I'll be able to give you all individual packs with the final-program/and something about the arca we'll be cycling through and places we'll be visiting, ’'m afraid I haven’t had the time to do that yet. Now, I’ll tell you briefly about some of the attractions in the places we'll be staying at, as I said we'll be taking the train to Westbury which has http://shop112815301.taobao.com FER UP BA WESFEE UP ABATE a one or two very good restaurants. One thing that’s definitely worth visiting there is the sites where the original town was constructed nearly 1000 years ago. There’s not much of the original buildings left but there’s still plenty to see. The site is being excavated and you'll be able to help out if you want to. Our next overnight stop will be in the village of Cluney, there are several old barns here that have been converted into a museum showing the importance of sheep in the area over the centuries. The wool used to be sold for cloth and it made the district quite rich. There are plenty photographs showing how agricultural workers used to live too. From there we'll go on to Pennerley. Pennerly is famous for its museum of village life but that’s been refurbished at the moment and isn’t likely to re-open by the time we go there but there’s an open air farmers market everyday selling fruits, vegetables, cheese and meat all grown or processed within a few miles of the town and sold by the farmers themselves. It’s definitely worth a visit. In Farlow, which is one of the oldest towns in the area, there’s a museum that shows how horses used to be the most common way of travelling around and how they were gradually replaced by steam trains and later, of course, diesel and electric trains, buses, cars and bicycles. Right, now, I'll pass around this sheet of paper... http://shop112815301.taobao.com FER UP BA WESFEE UP ABATE a Section 3 Course tutor: Oh, Karen. Hi. Come in, sit down. I wanted to talk to you about this assignment you given me. I'll give it back to you with my comments but there are several things I wanted to run over. You know, pointers for next time. When you hand in your next assignment, can you check that you've dealt with these? Karen: Uhm... Yeah, OK. Course tutor: Now, the first thing is your literature discussion was a bit thin so I would actually like to see your book reports to get your complete view, so can you submit those with the next assignment? Then I can see which bits you chosen to leave out! Karen: Uh, yes. Sorry, didn’t tealizé you needed them. Course tutor: And I’ve found Some errors, just small ones where you had quoted people but not recorded the information properly at the end, Don’t forget to go through and make sure that your references are accurate. The actual quotes were very relevant but the references just need tidying up, OK? http://shop112815301.taobao.com FER UP BA WESFEE UP ABATE a Karen: Yes, I’ll remember to check that. Course tutor: Now, you make some good points but it might be helpful if you could see if you can include a few extra examples, just to really hammer the point home. Don’t start writing more paragraphs, just slot them in at the end of what you've already written. Now the thing you have to do, if you really want to get better marks is to expand the ideas you're presenting, then your argument becomes more convincing, Karen: OK, fine. Uhm, can I talk to you about this presentation I’ve got to do? Course tutor: Yes, of course. Karen: Am I doing it next term? I can’t remember what we said. Course tutor: Well, the thing is, Marco couldn't do it so you agreed to do it at the next seminar didn’t you? $0, how can I help? Karen: Well, I was wondering what do you consider to be the core part of the presentation. I mean, what should I focus on? Course tutor: Good question. Well, you have very little time really so its absolutely essential for you to explain the experiment, of course you'll have a summary in the handouts you give out but you need to go through it carefully when you do the presentation. http://shop112815301.taobao.com FER UP BA WESFEE UP ABATE a Karen: And do I have to give you the abstract first or shall I just email it to all the students? Course tutor: Uh, no. I do need to see it first. We'll get some printouts done. Now, they’Il need to be done by the 3" of December so Ill need to see it by the 26" of November if that’s OK? Karen: Yes, fine Course tutor: Oh, and I need to talk to you about where it will be. We've had problems with the rooms because we'll need something bigger than usual. In our faculty the only room free is the computer room, which is far from suitable, so we'll haye to go across the road and do it in the chemistry lab. They’ve got all the proper overhead equipment in there as well. Karen: OK, right. And I get a grade for this right? Course tutor: Yes, your first one is graded by your tutor but this one will beassessed by the professor but don’t be worried, it will be fine. Karen: Oh, and I’ve sorted out my modules for next year. You asked me to tell you my choices. Course tutor: Yes, what’ve you decided? http://shop112815301.taobao.com FER UP BA WESFEE UP ABATE a Karen: Oh, it was really difficult to decide. Uhm, I've already done the data collection once so that wasn’t really a choice. I couldn’t make up my mind between language and society and communication skills. I read the syllabuses but they sound more or less the same to me, anyway, I went for communication skills in the end because I know the lecturer. Actually, social interactions seems to cover much the same ground so I didn’t bother with that either, Uhm, I thought this course analysis looked really interesting and, in fact, they cover a little bit of research methodology in it so I thought Id do that rather than the full methodology course. Killed two birds with one stone as it were. And then I fancied something completely different so I thought Psycholinguistics would be interesting, unless you think it'll be more worthwhile for me to do the phonology course? Course tutor: No, I think you’ye made:sensable choices. Im glad you're organized. OK, let’s meet again in a couple of weeks'to see how you're getting on, Karen: OK, thank you. See you then. http://shop112815301.taobao.com FER UP BA WESFEE UP ABATE a Section 4 Zoo Specialist: Good afternoon. From my work as curator at the Brisbane Zoo, it has becoming increasingly obvious to me that the animal world is a highly endangered one. It sometimes seems as though a new species is added to the endangered list everyday and a great deal of this is due to human activity. You may have read about the orange-bellied parrot colonies in South Australia, these are under threat from wind farms so even our attempts to save energy can have a negative impact. A further example is provided by the expansion of our cities. Here in Australia many species of frog are losing their habitat as a direct result of this urban development. What's more, thanks to the increasing use of pesticides, fewer insects are surviving. Many species depend upon these as a food source, birds in particular and so their numbers are declining as well. So, even in rural areas we are haying-a damaging effect on species, in fact, when our farmers choose to grow large amounts of one staple crop each year, corn is a perfect example. This often results in a greater need for chemicals and fertilizers which has a devastating effect on local wildlife. http://shop112815301.taobao.com FER UP BA WESFEE UP ABATE a Clearly something needs to be done about this, however, very little can be achieved without full public support and our general attitude is not always a positive one. Of course, it is easy to get people interested in animals such as the Panda, thanks to the attention it has given in the media, people are very aware of its plied and so are willing to give a great deal of support. However, it is not so easy to attract sympathy for those essential, smaller species such as insects. They may seem insignificant but these tiny creatures have an enormous effect on our ecosystem and it isn’t only size that is a problem when it comes to our attitude towards animals. There are certain animals that we would prefer to simply ignore for various reasons. Firstly we might do this because of fear, that is the normal reaction when people see a shark or a snake, for example. Another reason might be that we believe certain animals are rivals when comes to food, locusts and even mice could come into this category. Then there are animals that we view with disgust because of how they look or feel, the many different parasites for example. You may well ask what does it matter if any of these species dies. Extinction is a fact of live after all. I would argue that there are several reasons to be concemed about the extinction of any species, Each species helps us to understand more about how our ecosystem works, one species can be linked to many others in the food chain, for example, and http://shop112815301.taobao.com FER UP BA WESFEE UP ABATE a inevitably they all lead back to us in some way. We now know that the more complex the ecosystem is, the more stable it is, When this is the case, large numbers of one animal are quickly controlled by outbreaks of its predators. We've also began to realize that the presence or absence of certain plants can alert us to changes in our environment. One type of plant might indicate the presence of rich mineral deposits, another might alerts us to toxic water and so even seemingly insignificant species can be helpful and beneficial to us. This is especially true in the area of medicine, there are many well documented cases of the health benefits of pet ownership, especially with the ill or the handicapped but now many people know that spiders are also being used in medicine. The cobwebs they make can be used to assist with certain blood disorders, it actually helps blood to clot. Imagine how much more there is for us still to discover from plants and animals but we can only do this if we can save these creatures from extinction. Perhaps, in the end, it is our self-interest that will save the animals. http://shop112815301.taobao.com FER UP BA WESWEG UP ABABITE PRR | TRE 1029% Reading Reading Test 2 Ba BEAGAE Passage 1 fi AD ee SL STH (RI HAH AB HEM AEB, BEL Ra CB: Fill DER: HII BCHH ER: BARE FRR: AREAL GB: RAHA HEE: JAA OAT ‘Questions 1-8 i, Bere bail HUM IT: HERRERA Hecht, Hei AD. http://shop112815301.taobao.com #ER UP BAYSFEE UP ABATE a ‘this BRA JWR 1029809890 we [Ae | Reta Sarara ABARAT Dried leaves from a nearby chance | BUSH fell nto the Bolling | yy. fe sA he 1 fist ERABEE | water and as the leaves "| infused the water tumed brown.

How does this competitiveness affect individuals? Is it@ positive or negative quality? ‘As society advanées, people’s life quality has vastly improved, Along with the so¢iety growth, more people tend to be more outstanding in their field, in another words, they are trying to strengthen their competitiveness. A person who has stronger competitiveness is often employed in a core position of a company, an enterprise that is competitive means that they are harder to surpass, and a country with higher competitiveness is generally more prosperous. http://shop112815301.taobao.com #ER UP BAYSFEE UP ABATE a Competition among people can be good thing for a number of reasons. One of the main things is that people are more productive during competition; people push each other to exceed their normal limits which result in increased production. As a student, being in a competitive university always spurs us to self-improvement because in the study life you always need a goal to pursue, other competitor would be a nice motivator to help you reach your goal. On the other hand, too much competitiveness might cause negative conflicts which result in disliking one another, especially if the one competitor always wins; it probably makes other competitors feel uncomfortable or maybe even frustrating about themselves, Sometimes overwhelming competition would bring plenty of stress to a person which has a possibility of causing physical or mental problems that we don’t truly want in daily life Throughout all the aspects, in my opinion, competitiveness for most part is positive, because if between people or companies or even countries without competitors, they won’t find out how great or how bad they are doing, but with competitors, people have a better view about themselves and others. http://shop112815301.taobao.com FER UP BA WES
