2007年6月英语六级真题听力原文

  11、 W: Jim, you are on the net again! We are going to get off. It s time for the talk show!
  M: Just a minute dear! I m looking at a new jewelry site. I want to make sure I get the right gift for mom s birthday.
  Q: What is the man doing right now?
  12.W: I ve never seen you have such confidence before in the exam!
  M: It s more than confidence! Right now I felt that if I got less than an A, it will be the fault of the exam itself.
  Q: What does the man mean?
  13.W: Just look at this newspaper! Nothing but murder, death and war! Do you still believe people are basically good?
  M: Of course I do! But newspapers hardly ever report stories about peace and generosity. They are not news!
  Q: What do we learn from the conversation?
  14.M: Tom must be joking when he said he plans to sell his shop and go to medical school.
  W: You are quite right! He s just kidding! He s also told me time and time again he wished to study for some profession instead of going into business.
  Q: What will Tom probably do according to the conversation?
  15.W: I hear your boss has a real good impression of you, and he is thinking about giving you two more days off each month.
  M: I hope not. I d rather get more work hours I can get enough bucks to help out my two kids at college.
  Q: What does the man truly want?
  16.M: I heard you took a trip to Mexico last month. How did you like it?
  W: Oh, I got sick and tired of the hotel and hotel food! So now I understand the thing: East, west, home s best!
  Q: What does the woman mean?
  17.W: I m worried about Anna. She s really been depressed lately. All she does is staying in her room all day.
  M: That sounds serious! She d better see a psychiatrist at the counseling centre.
  Q: What does the man suggest Anna do?
  18.M: I could hardly recognize Sam after we got that new job! He s always in a suit and tie now.
  W: Yeah. He was never liked that in college. Back then, he went around in old T-shirts and jeans.
  Q: What does the speaker say about Sam?
  Conversation 1
  M: Hi, Anna! Welcome back! How’s your trip to the States?
  W: Very busy. I had a lot of meetings, so, of course, I didn’t have much time to see New York.
  M: What a pity! Actually, I have a trip there myself next week.
  W: Do you? Then take my advice, do the well-being in the air program. It really works.
  M: Oh, I read about that in a magazine. You say it works?
  W: Yes, I did the program on the flight to the States, and when I arrived at New York, I didn’t have any problem, no jet lag at all. On the way back, I didn’t do it, and I felt terrible.
  M: You’re joking!
  W: Not at all, it really meant a lot of difference.
  M: En. So what did you do?
  W: Well, I didn’t drink an alcohol or coffee, and I didn’t eat any meat or rich food. I drink a lot of water, and fresh juice, and I ate the noodles on the well-being menu. They’re lighter. They have fish, vegetables, and noodles, for example, and I did some of the exercises of the program.
  M: Exercises? On a plane?
  W: Yes. I didn’t do many, of course, there isn’t much space on a plane.
  M: How many passengers do the exercises?
  W: Not many.
  M: Then how much champagne did they drink?
  W: A lot! It was more popular than mineral water.
  M: So, basically, it’s a choice. Mineral water and exercises, or champagne and jet lag.
  W: That’s right! It’s a difficult choice.
  Questions 19 to 22 are based on the conversation you’ve just heard.
  19. Why did the woman go to New York?
  20. What does the woman say about the well-being in the air program?
  21. What did the woman do to follow the well-being menu?
  22. What did the woman say about other passengers?
  Conversation Two:
  W: Morning. Can I help you?
  M: Well, I’m not rally sure. I’m just looking.
  W: I see. Well, there’s plenty to look at it again this year. I’m sure you have to walk miles to see each stand.
  M: That’s true.
  W: Er…, would you like a coffee? Come and sit down for a minute, no obligation.
  M: Well, that’s very kind of you, but…
  W: Now, please. Is this the first year you’ve been to the fair, Mr….
  M: Yes, Johnson, James Johnson.
  W: My name’s Susan Carter. Are you looking for anything in particular, or are you interested in computers in general?
  M: Well, actually, I have some specific jobs in mind. I owe a small company, we’ve grown quite dramatically over the past 12 months, and we really need some technological help to enable us to keep on top of everything.
  W: What’s your line of business, Mr. Johnson?
  M: We’re a training consultancy.
  W: I see. And what do you mean “to keep on top”?
  M: The first thing is correspondence. We have a lot of standard letters and forms. So I suppose we need some kind of word processor.
  W: Right. Well, that’s no problem. But it may be possible for you to get a system that does a lot of other things in addition to word processing. What might suit you is the MR5000. That’s it over there! It’s IBM compatible.
  M: What about the price?
  W: Well, the MR5000 costs 1,050 pounds. Software comes free with the hardware.
  M: Well, I’ll think about it. Thank you.
  W: Here’s my card. Please feel free to contact me.
  Questions 23 to 25 are based on the conversation you’ve just heard:
  23. Where did the conversation take place?
  24. What are the speakers talking about?
  25. What is the man’s line of business?
  Passage
  P1
  The new year always brings with the cultural tradition of new possibilities. We see it as a chance for renewal. We begin to dream of new possible selves. We design our ideal self or an image that is quite different from what we are now. For some of us, we roll at dreamy film in our heads just because it’s the beginning of a new year. But we aren’t serious about making changes. We just make some half-hearted resolution and it evaporates after a week or two. The experience makes us feel less successful and leads us to discount our ability to change in the future. It’ not the change is impossible but that it would lose(?) unless our resolutions are supported with plans for implementation. We have to make our intentions manageable by detailing the specific steps that will carry us to our goal. Say your goal is to lose weight by dieting and cutting off sweets. But one night you just have to have a cookie. And you know there’s a bag of your favorites in the cupboard. You want one, you eat two, you check the bag and find out you’ve just shot 132 calories. You say to yourself, “What the hell!” and polish off the whole bag. Then you begin to draw all kinds of unpleasant conclusions about yourself.To protect your sense of self, you begin to discount the goal. You may think – “Well, dieting wasn’t that important to me and I won’t make it anyhow.” So you abandon the goal and return to your bad habits.
  26 What do people usually wish to do at the beginning of a new year?
  27 How can people turn their new year’s resolutions into reality?
  28 Why does the speaker mention the example of sweets and cookies?
  P2
  25 years ago, Ray Anderson, a single parent with a one-year-old son witnessed a terrible accident which took place when the driver of a truck ran a red light and collided with the car of Sandra D. The impact of the collision killed Sandra instantly. But her three-month-old daughter was left trapped in the burning car. While others looked on in horror, Andersen jumped out of his vehicle and crawled into the car through the shadowed rear window to try to free the infant. Seconds later, the car was enclosed in flames. But to everyone’s amazement, Andersen was able to pull the baby to safety. While the baby was all right, Andersen was seriously injured. Two days later he died. But his heroic act was published widely in the media. His son was soon adopted by relatives. The most remarkable part of the story unfolded only last week. Karen and her boyfriend Michael were looking through some old boxes when they came across some old newspaper clippings. “This is me when I was a new born baby. I was rescued from a burning car. But my mother died in the accident,” explained Karen. Although Michael knew Karen’s mother had died years earlier, he never fully understood the circumstances until he skimmed over the newspaper article. To Karen’s surprise, Michael was absorbed in the details of the accident. And he began to cry uncontrollably. Then he revealed that the man that pulled Karen from the flames was the father he never knew. The two embraced and shed many tears, recounting stories told to them about their parents.
  29 What happened twenty-five years ago?
  30 What does the speaker say about Michael’s father?
  31 Why did Michael cry uncontrollably when he skimmed over the newspaper article?
  P3
  Americans suffer from an overdose of work. Regardless of who they are or what they do. Americans spend more time at work than that any time since World War II. In 1950, the US had fewer working hours than any other industrialized country. Today, it exceeds every country but Japan where industrialized employees load 2155 hours a year compared with 1951 in the US and 1603 in the former West Germany. Between 1969 and 1989, employed Americans add an average of 138 hours to their yearly work schedules. The workweek has remained above 40 hours. But people are working more weeks each year. Specifically pay time off holidays, vacations, sick leave shrink by 50% in the 1980s. As corporations have experienced stiff competitions and slow in growth of productivity, they have pressed employees to work longer. Cost-cutting lay-offs in the 1980s reduce the professional and managerial runs, leaving fewer people to get the job done. In lower paid occupations where wages have been reduced, workers have added hours in overtime or extra jobs to preserve their living standards. The government estimates that more than 7 million people hold a second job. For the first time, large numbers of people say they want to cut back on working hours even it means earning less money. But most employers are unwilling to let them do so. The government which has stepped back from its traditional role as a regulator of work time should take steps to make shorter hours possible.
  Question 32-35 are based on the passage you’ve just heard
  32. In which country do industrial employees work the longest hours?
  33. How do employed Americans manage to work more hours?
  34. Why do corporations press their employees to work longer hours according to the speaker?
  35. What does the speaker say many Americans prefer to do?

  Nursing, as a typically female profession, must deal constantly with the false impression that nurses are there to wait on the physician. As nurses, we are licensed to provide nursing care only. We do not have any legal or moral obligation to any physician. We provide health teaching, assess physical as well as emotional problems, coordinate patient related services, and make all our nursing decision based upon what is best or suitable for the patient. If in any circumstance we feel that a physician’s order is inappropriate or unsafe, we have a legal responsibility to question that order, or refuse to carry it out. Nursing is not a nine-to-five job with every weekend off. All nurses are aware of that before they enter the profession. The emotional and physical stress, however, that occurs due to odd working hours is a prime reason for a large of the career dissatisfaction. It is sometimes required that we work overtime, and that we change shifts four or five times a month. That disturbs our personal lives, destruct our sleeping and eating habits, and isolates us from everything except job related friends and activities. The quality of nursing care is being affected dramatically by these situations. Most hospitals are now staffed by new graduates, as experienced nurses finally give up trying to change the system. Consumers of medically related services have evidently not been affected enough yet to demand changes in our medical system. But if trends continue as predicted, they will find that most critical hospital care will be provided by new, inexperienced, and sometimes inadequately trained nurses.
