Tapescript

For those of you who are either already studying in the United States or plan to one day, it might be interesting to know something about the foreign student population in the United States.For the academic year 1995/96 there was a total of approximately 344,000 foreign students studying in the United States.This figure of 344,000 may seem like a very large number until you compare it with the total population of 241,000,000.The foreign student population has been growing for a number of years and is still growing, but the rate of increase has dropped sharply during the 1990s.During the 1980s, the population grew quite rapidly.For example, between 1985 and 1990, the average yearly increase was 12.5%.However, the picture in the 1990s is quite different.The rate of increase has declined quite noticeably.In fact, the rate of increase between 1994/95 and 1995/96 was only .5%, or one-half of one percent.Although the overall rate of increase has dropped to only .5%, the number of students from some parts of the world is increasing while the number of students from other areas is decreasing.For example, during this same time period, that is between the academic years 94/95 and 95/96, there was a decreasein the number of students from the middle East, while the number of students from South and East Asia increased.These changes in the number of students coming from different parts of the world no doubt reflected changing economic and political situations.I ’ m sure you are aware of many of these changes, and perhaps we can discuss them

at our next meeting.For today let ’ s confine our talk to first, a discussion of the origin of these students, or, in other words, where they come from; second, the kinds of studies they pursue; and, finally, the academic levels they are found in.If we have a little time left, we might quickly

discuss in which geographic areas most of them go to school.

Let’discussthe origins of the foreign student population in the United States for the academic year 1995/96.Let ’ s discuss it in order from those areas sending the most students to those areas sending the fewest students.If we look at the figures provided by the annual census of foreign students in the United States for the year 1995/96, we see that most of the foreign students studying in the United States during this year were from South and East Asia.This is a rather large geographical area which includes such countries as China, Korea, Pakistan, India, Malaysia, and Indonesia.The total number of students from this area, South and East Asia was 156,830.In other words, roughly 2 out of every 5 foreign students come from South and East Asia.Almost 24,000 of this total were from China.Malaysia was close behind with just a little

over 23,000 students.The?nextlargest number of students came from the middle East.The

number of students from the middle East came to about one-third the number from South and

East Asia.The fourth largest number came from South America.Next came Europe, Africa,

North America, and Oceania.Let ’ s recapitulate what we ’ ve said.The largest number of stude studying in the United States during the academic year 1995/96 were from South and East Asia, followed by the middle East, South America, Europe, Africa, North America, and Oceania.

What fields are these large numbers of foreign students studying in? It probably won’t surprise you to learn that the largest number are in the field of engineering.In fact, 21.7% of

the total number are studying engineering.Business and management is close behind, however, with a total of 18.9%.The third most popular field was mathematics and computer sciences with 10.3%.As you can see, engineering with 21.7%, businessand management with 18.9%, and mathematics and computer scienceswith 10.3% comprise about one half of the total number of foreign students.

Let’s talk about which academic levels these students can be found in.Foreign students can be found studying at all levels of higher education.As you might expect, the greatest number of them are studying at the undergraduate level?approximately 158,000.The second largest group study at the graduate level and that number is just under 122,000.The rest study at junior collegesor in non-degree programs.It is at the graduate level that foreign students have the most impact.While foreign students comprise only 2.7% of the total U.S.student population, they account for 8.7% of all the graduate students studying at U.S.institutions.Let me give you those percentagesagain so you can get a better feel for the overall picture.Foreign students make up only 2.75 of the total U.S.student population, but they make up 8.7% of the total graduate student population.

Well, I see that’sall the time we have today.We’llhave to leave discussionsof the

geographic areas these students study in until another time.

Now you are going to hear the talk a second time.

Text 1

In recent years, there has been a steady assault on salt from the doctors: salt is bad for you? regardless of your health.Politicians also got on board."There is a direct relationship," US congressman Neal Smith noted, "between the amount of sodium a person consumes and heart disease,circulatory disorders, stroke and even early death."Frightening, if true! But many doctors and medical researchers are now beginning to feel the salt scare has gone too far."All this hue and cry about eating salt is unnecessary," Dr.Dustan insists."For most of us it probably doesn’tmake much difference how much salt we eat." Dustan’ smost recent short-term study of 150 people showed that those with normal blood pressure experienced no change at all when placed on an extremely low-salt diet, or later when salt was reintroduced.Of the hypertensive subjects, however, half of those on the low-salt diet did experience a drop in blood pressure, which returned to its previous level when salt was reintroduced."An adequate

to somewhat excessive salt intake has probably saved many more lives than it has cost in the general population," notes Dr.John https://www.wendangku.net/doc/3b10407272.html,ragh."So a recommendation that the whole population should avoid salt makes no sense."Medical experts agree that everyone should practice reasonable "moderation" in salt consumption.For the average person, a moderate amount

might run from four to ten grams a day, or roughly 1/2 to 1/3 of a teaspoon.The equivalent of one to two grams of this salt allowance would come from the natural sodium in food.The rest would be added in processing,preparation or at the table.Those with kidney, liver or heart problems may have to limit dietary salt, if their doctor advises.But even the very vocal "low salt" exponent, Dr.Arthur Hull Hayes, Jr.admits that "we do not know whether increased

sodium consumption causes hypertension." In fact, there is growing scientific evidence that other factors may be involved: deficiencies in calcium, potassium, perhaps magnesium;

obesity (much more dangerous than sodium); genetic predisposition; stress."It is not your enemy," says https://www.wendangku.net/doc/3b10407272.html,ragh."Salt is the No.1 natural component of all human tissue, and the idea that you don’ tneed it is wrong.Unless your doctor has proven that you have a salt-related health problem, there is no reason to give it up."

1.According to some doctors and politicians, the amount of salt consumed[A] exhibits as an aggravating factor to people in poor health.[B] cures diseases such as stroke and

circulatory disorders.[C] correlates highly with some diseases.[D]is irrelevant to people suffering from heart disease.

2.From Dr.Dustan ’s study we can infer that[A] a low-salt diet may be prescribed for some people.[B] the amount of salt intake has nothing to do with one’ sblood pressure.[C] the reduction of salt intake can cure a hypertensive patient.[D] an extremely low-salt diet makes

no difference to anyone.

3.In the third paragraph, https://www.wendangku.net/doc/3b10407272.html,ragh implies that[A] people should not be afraid of taking excessivesalt.[B] doctors should not advise people to avoid salt.[C] an adequate to

excessive salt intake is recommended for people in disease.[D] excessivesalt intake has claimed some victims in the general population.

4.The phrase "vocal ...exponent" (line 2, para.4) most probably refers to[A] eloquent doctor.[B] articulate opponent.[C] loud speaker.[D] strong advocate.

5.What is the main message of this text?[A] That the salt scare is not justified.[B] That the cause of hypertension is now understood.[C] That the moderate use of salt is recommended.[D] That salt consumption is to be promoted.

Part B

In the following article some paragraphs have been removed.For Questions 1- 5, choose the most suitable paragraph from the list A - F to fit into each of the numbered gaps.There is one paragraph which does not fit in any of the gaps.Mark your answers on ANSWER SHEET 1.

From her vantage point she watched the main doors swing open and the first arrivals pour in.Those who had been at the head of the line paused momentarily on entry, looked around curiously, then quickly moved forward as others behind pressed in.Within moments the central public area of the big branch bank was filled with a chattering, noisy crowd.The building,

relatively quiet less than a minute earlier, had become a Babel.Edwina saw a tall heavyset black man wave some dollar bills and declare loudly, "I want to put my money in the bank"

1

It seemed as if the report about everyone having come to open an account had been

accurate after all.

Edwina could see the big man leaning back expansively, still holding his dollar bills.

His voice cut across the noise of other conversations and she heard him proclaim, "I ’m no hurry.There ’ s something I ’ d like you to explain."Two other desks were quickly manned by

other clerks.With equal speed, long wide lines of people formed in front of them.

Normally, three members of staff were ample to handle new account business, but

obviously were inadequate now.

Edwina could see Tottenhoe on the far side of the bank and called him on the intercom.She instructed, "Use more desks for new accounts and take all the staff you can spare to man them."

2

Tottenhoe grumbled in reply, "You realize we can and however many we do will tie us up completely.""I ’t possibly process all these people today ’ ve an idea," Edwina said, "that’

someone has in mind.Just hurry the processing all you can."

3

First, an application form called for details of residence, employment, social security, and family matters.A specimen signature was obtained.Then proof of identity was needed.After that,

the new accounts clerk would take all documents to an officer of the bank for approval and initialing.Finally, a savings passbook was made out or a temporary checkbook issued.Therefore

the most new accounts that any bank employee could open in an hour were five, so the three

clerks presently working might handle? a total of ninety in one business day, if they kept going

at top speed, which was unlikely.

4

Still the noise within the bank increased.It had become an uproar.

A further problem was that the growing mass of arrivals in the central public area of the

bank was preventing access to tellers ’ counters by other customers.Edwina could see a few o them outside, regarding the milling scene with consternation.While she watched, several gave

up and walked away.Inside the bank some of the newcomers were engaging tellers in

conversation and the tellers,?having nothing else to do because of the melee, chatted

back.Two assistant managers had gone to the central floor area and were trying to regulate the flood of people so as to clear some space at counters.They were having small success.

5

She decided it was time for her own intervention.

Edwina left the platform and a railed-off staff area and, with difficulty, made her way

through the milling crowd to the main front door.

A.Yet she knew however much they hurried it would still take ten to fifteen minutes to

open any single new account.It always did.The paperwork required that time.

B.But still no hostility was evident.Everyone in the now jam-packed bank who was spoken to by members of the staff answered politely and with a smile.It seemed, Edwina thought, as if all who were here had been briefed to be on best behavior.

C.A security guard directed him, "Over there for new accounts." The guard pointed to

a desk where a clerk?a young girl?sat waiting.She appeared nervous.

The big man walked toward her, smiled reassuringly, and sat down.

Immediately a press of others moved into a ragged line behind him, waiting for their turn.

D.Even leaning close to the intercom, it was hard to hear above the noise.

E.Even tripling the present complement of clerks would permit very few more than two hundred and fifty accounts to be opened in a day, yet already,?in the first few minutes of business, the bank was crammed with at least four hundred people,?with still more flooding in, and the line outside, which Edwina rose to check, appeared as long as ever.

F.Obviously someonehad alerted the press in advance, which explained the

presenceof the TV camera crew outside.Edwina wondered who had done it.

一个人的PETS5的经验

一个人的PETS5的经验（我一个字一个字打出来的）转贴今天拿到了PETS 5级证书，笔试76（其中听力26），口语5，总的说来还可以接受，下面讲讲我的一些体会，希望对大家有用。我是4月决定报考的，主要是因为参加工作2年，英语都忘得差不多了，想借此给自己一点压力和动力，四月底去到广外考试中心，交了160元，五一后再去拿到了准考证。复习过程我选择上外的大学英语精读这套教材，虽然有人对它指手画脚，实际上作为一套教材，它可以说是非常经典的。由于报5级，所以我直接从第四册开始学习。首先我把单词读一遍，一是掌握单词的发音，国为我有些单调拿不准，二是有些单词的意思和常用意思不一致，所以要先过一遍。词汇是外语的基础。5级的词汇量应该在6000以上，如果阅读过程中生词率高于30%，考试就没法考了。然后我习惯大声读一遍课文，为的是培养费语感，“文章硬如铁，读来满口血”，文章不读一次，就感觉嘴巴都硬了。读完之后，就借且参考书，逐字逐句的啃课文，主要包括词汇的意思和用法，句子的语法和逻辑结构（这是最重要的！），以及一些时代背景，名人名言等等，为什么要强调语法和逻辑结构呢？我们以第五册第一课第一句话为例：it is probably easier for teachers than for students to appreciate the reasons why learning English seems to become increasingly difficult once the basic structures and patterns of the languagee have been understood.一句主占据了3行，而且结构复杂冗长，没有过硬的分析能力，考试时就会手忙脚乱了。所以这一肯虽然很烦也很枯燥，但却是必不可少的。我在复习过程中在这一步耗时最多，基本上一天看一课，课后的练习因为时间关系基本没有做，精力都在阅读上了。3册课本共30篇，去掉几篇小说还剩20多篇，一个月基本能看完。这是复习的第一阶段。第二阶段主要是巩固和提高，每天我固定抽出半个小时读课文，先大声读一遍，培养语感和锻炼发音，读的过程基本不知道课文在说什么，看到的只是一个个单词，见树不见林。第二遍是默读，读完一句话，仔细地分析它的结构，搞清楚每个成分之间的内在联系，既见树又见林。这一阶段还要进入实战练习，市面上关于PETS 的辅导书多如牛毛，可惜质量实在不敢恭维。见过一本王长喜主编的模拟书，里面错误百出，可谓误人子弟。我一直认为，最好的辅导书就是历年真题，可惜PETS5的真题概不流出，所以那些所谓的辅导书就不几太当真了，他们唯一的用处就是让你熟悉考试会有哪些题型，如果真的想做练习，可以拿6级或考研的历年真题来做。考试前一天睡的不好，八点来到考场，结果几乎到九点半才开考。第一部分是听力，又分3 PARTS，PART1是对话，PART2是段子，都是听完后选一个答案，PART3是填空，一段话放3遍，要求填补文中抽去的词或短语。个人觉得难度和6级差不多，有些地方稍微快一些。第二部分是语法填空，一篇文章里面抽掉了若干个词，要逑补充完整（没有选项，不像完形填空！）。这部分一半靠语感，1/3靠语法逻辑，苦命靠上下文语境，为什么要强调语感呢？其实靠逻辑也可以做出来，但需要时间，而考试最缺的就是时间，所以要靠 2013公共英语考试全攻略 考试介绍考试指导一级考试试题考试指导二级考试试题 平时多读，凭借语感当机立断，这部分每空只有0.5分，所以千万不要花太多时间，做不出的就放弃，当然也不要乱选，毕竟0.5分也是分，要做到又快又准。第三部分是大头：阅读，5篇文章，每篇约800词。对阅读的难度一定要有充分的认识；把你能想象的最大难度放大十倍，就差不多了（当然对于牛人这句话不适用）。每篇只能看一遍文章就去做题（做的过程可以回头寻找文中的细节）。我就在这方面犯错误了，有一篇文章看了两遍才做，最后就不够时间了。第四部分是排序，一篇文章抽去了几段，要从选项中把正确的段落补回去。这种题型对大家比较陌生，而且做到这里，脑子也比较混乱或者是转不动了，我也提不出什么好办法，虽然每题有2分。最后是快速阅读，有3篇文章，每篇800词，10道选择题，都是考文章的细节，难度很小，关键是阅读速度要快，以上是第一卷，到时间后监考人员收卷，再发第二卷作文，这次的作文题目是“多设立职业高中还是普通高中？”个

2011年三段对话/独白 1. JoAnn: Don, you have been a strong advocate for teacher and student rights; you wrote about the politics of education in Testing Is Not Teaching(2002). How have things changed since you first wrote about writing in the1970s? Don: In my report to the Ford Foundation in 1976, I documented how the government f unded no research in the teaching of writing. It was appalling how little opportunity there was to research the second R. I actually got the first grant from the government in 1978for my study in Atkinson, New Hampshire. There was also a cover story by Newsweek with the title, “Why Johnny Can’t.” That was around 1977,as I recall. So there was a burst of energy for writing in the early 80s. The National-writing Project expanded dramatically,and there was more research money for studying writing. Even Ronald Reagan allowed funds to go to writing and its improvement; I was on his panel for excellence. I’ve learned that Ame rican educator sand the government can maintain focus on a subject area for only so long. In the early 90s and continuing to the present, testing and accountability have become a major focus. They have become almost like curricula in their own right. They steal the focus from learning and—more particularly—from writing. JoAnn: What impact have federal mandates had on our schools? What has this meant for the teaching of writing? Don: Testing and the emphasis on reading have stolen large blocks of time from writing. Writing requires human power and time to evaluate whatever is submitted. Reading, on the other hand, is much cheaper to assess. The No Child Left Behind Act is all about reading. The authors of the bill didn't realize just how much writing creates a different reader. Writing is the making of reading. People who construct things know far better how to take those things apart.[The federal mandates want us to believe that] it is much more important to find out if children are good receivers of informa tion, rather than good senders of information. In short,we don’t want their ideas, but we do want to know if they can get the right answer about the information they should understand. In sum, from a political standpoint,we don’t really want to know if the y can write with a voice that has idea sand facts to support those ideas. JoAnn: What can teachers do when they find they have less time for writing? Don: Teachers should band together asking lots of questions, both orally and in writing. They need to ask questions like:? How important is writing in relation to reading?? Do you think it is equally important for children to know how to send information, as well as to receive it?? Do you think writing is a medium for learning to think? Why or why not?? Do we, in fact, want our children to be thinkers who come up with original ideas? If so, how can we assess that?? Most professional writers read,interview, make outlines, take notes, and then write. Why is it that children are denied the very tools and opportunities that professional writers use when taking tests or following test prompts?To show how important the medium of writing is, we should put our questions in writing, then call for an appointment to have good dialogue with administrators, and policy makers. Of course, we need to have dialogue among ourselves about these matters first. Donald Graves(Continued from page 1)[The federal mandates want us to believe that] it is much more-important to find out if children are good receivers of information,rather than good senders of information. In short, we don't want their ideas, but we do want to know if they can get the right answer about the information they should understand. 2.

Tapescript For those of you who are either already studying in the United States or plan to one day, it might be interesting to know something about the foreign student population in the United States.For the academic year 1995/96 there was a total of approximately 344,000 foreign students studying in the United States.This figure of 344,000 may seem like a very large number until you compare it with the total population of 241,000,000.The foreign student population has been growing for a number of years and is still growing, but the rate of increase has dropped sharply during the 1990s.During the 1980s, the population grew quite rapidly.For example, between 1985 and 1990, the average yearly increase was 12.5%.However, the picture in the 1990s is quite different.The rate of increase has declined quite noticeably.In fact, the rate of increase between 1994/95 and 1995/96 was only .5%, or one-half of one percent.Although the overall rate of increase has dropped to only .5%, the number of students from some parts of the world is increasing while the number of students from other areas is decreasing.For example, during this same time period, that is between the academic years 94/95 and 95/96, there was a decreasein the number of students from the middle East, while the number of students from South and East Asia increased.These changes in the number of students coming from different parts of the world no doubt reflected changing economic and political situations.I ’ m sure you are aware of many of these changes, and perhaps we can discuss them at our next meeting.For today let ’ s confine our talk to first, a discussion of the origin of these students, or, in other words, where they come from; second, the kinds of studies they pursue; and, finally, the academic levels they are found in.If we have a little time left, we might quickly
