LISTENING TEXT:
1 Let’s see what happened in sports today. How about taking a look at the NBA? In today's basketball action, the Los Angeles Lakers won against the Miami Heat. The Lakers scored 20 points in the last quarter, beating the Heat 101-96. Los Angeles has now won their last five games and may be on the way to this year's playoffs.
2 And here are the results from today's soccer league games. Manchester United came back from one goal behind to tie Leeds 2-2 in Wednesday's game. Leeds scored their first goal after only ten minutes. It looked like Leeds would win when they took a 2-1 lead in the second half, but Manchester scored their second goal with five minutes left. Manchester is now two wins away from their third title.
3 The masters of their game once again showed that they cannot be stopped. China won against Russia in Saturday's table tennis match. The Chinese team won the two first singles matches 3-1 and 3-0, while the Russians won the doubles match. China did not give up, but won the singles match. The win in the last singles match gave them a final win of 3-1. China has not lost any matches this year and it doesn't look like any team can beat them.

2. PRE-READING
Introduction The pre-reading exercise introduces the topic of the text and helps activate background knowledge.
Instruction Put the students into groups of four. Ask each group member to think and talk about one of the questions. Alternatively, you can ask each group to focus on one question. Visit each group and give help as needed. When group discussion time is up, ask the students to express their personal opinion about the questions given, or, alternatively, elicit responses from volunteers. Remember that answers will and should vary. Students are free to come up with different opinions, but they must state their reasons clearly.
Possible answers:
1 I like watching NBA basketball games, because very often you don't know who wins until the last minute. It's very exciting. Watching the best players play also helps me play basketball better.
I like watching football matches most, because it is teamwork. I can't help feeling excited when someone scores a goal.
I like watching gymnastics most, because in it you'll see both strength and beauty. I wish I could do that too.
2 Yes, it is important to win, because it proves that you are the best and gives you confidence.
No, it is not important to win. It is important to do your best and to have fun while you are competing.
3 Yes, they are important. It is an opportunity to show how strong your country is and how much the people in your country love sports. That's why Chinese people are so crazy about hosting the Olympic Games and winning gold medals. Such a big sports meeting is also good for the local economy.
No, they are not so important. The countries have to spend too much money on training Olympic athletes. It is better if the countries use this money to build more sports centers to help common people keep fit. The Olympic Games are just another sports event.
4 The athletes think it is an honour to take part in the Olympic Games, because it is a meeting of the best sportsmen and sportswomen in the world.
They have a chance to win if they take part in the Olympic Games, and if they do win, they will become rich and famous.
They come to make friends and learn from each other.

Introduction The students are asked to write a profile of a sports star to practise using some of the vocabulary in the unit and to practise describing a person.
Instruction Ask the students to read about Yao Ming and think about what makes an athlete great and successful. Let the students choose their favourite star and write a profile.
Sample writing:
Serena Williams is one of the world's best tennis players. She was born in California in 1981 and has been playing tennis since she was very young. Serena's sister, Venus Williams, is also a top tennis player, and they are both trained by their father.
Serena has won all the big tennis titles: Wimbledon, the US Open, the Australian Open, and the French Open. She is a powerful player: she is tall and has very strong arms and legs.
Many people like Serena because of her outgoing personality and her friendliness. I also like Serena because she uses her spare time to help students in poor areas. A great sports star should do more than just play sports-he or she should also set a good example for others to follow. Serena Williams is a star tennis player who cares about others and tries to help. I think that she is truly a great person.

LISTENING TEXT:
Sports Star of the Year
Part 1
Ladies and gentlemen! The time has come for you to decide who the sports star of the year will be. You have three stars to choose from. Let's hear about the stars!
The first star is the football player Ronaldo, from Brazil. Ronaldo has had a very good year. He scored many goals for his club and for his country. Perhaps more importantly, Ronaldo also showed the world that he was able to overcome difficulties. He was hurt twice in the past few years and had to spend a lot of time in hospital and improve his skills. But Ronaldo has done more than just play football, he has also helped the United Nations make the world better.
The second star won a gold medal in the 2000 Olympic Games and seems to get better every year. Jason Kidd led his team to victory after victory, and he helped his teammates become better players. Basketball is important to Kidd and he likes to show everybody that he loves this game. Jason Kidd has also helped children and teenagers love the game and love school, telling them that they can make their dreams come true if they do their best.
Part 2
The third star is ... Well, we need your help with this one. The third star is one of China's many great athletes. There are so many stars to choose from that we can't pick one. Please help us. Work together in groups or pairs and decide which Chinese sports star you think should be chosen as sports star of the year. Don't forget to write down reasons for your choice. When you have finished, use the cards to decide who should be chosen. Report your decision to the class. Thank you and good luck.
Answers to the exercises:
1
Sports Star No.1
Name: Ronaldo
Sport: Soccer / Football
Reasons: He scored many goals.
He overcame difficulties.
He helped the UN make the world better. Sports Star No.2
Name: Jason Kidd
Sport: Basketball
Reasons: He led his team to victory.
He helped his teammates become better players. He helped young people follow their dreams and love school.
2 Encourage the students to think of as many different choices as possible. Various answers are possible. Remind the students to think of different kinds of reasons (see star No.1 and No.2). When the students have decided on a candidate, ask the class to discuss the different choices and try to decide who will be the Sports Star of the Year.
3. TALKING
Introduction This activity gives the students an opportunity to talk about sports and the Olympic spirit and to practise expressing and supporting an opinion.
Instruction Ask the students to choose a role and prepare a role card with reasons for their opinion. You can help them prepare by giving a few examples or by asking questions while the students are preparing the discussion. During the discussion, make sure that everyone is participating and that they are using English. When the groups have finished, ask one member from each group to tell the class what they have discussed. Use their reports to start a class discussion to see which problem you think is the most serious and if there are other serious problems.
Sample Discussion:
A: I am worried about athletes who cheat by using drugs or other methods to win. We watch the Olympics to see the best athletes compete. We do not want to see athletes who cheat or use drugs to win. The best athlete should win without drugs or cheating. Using drugs is dangerous, too. Athletes should not use drugs, because they may get sick and they may make young sports fans think that drugs are good.
B: I think that the biggest problem is that the Olympic judges are unfair. Some judges give lower scores to athletes from countries they don't like, and sometimes judges and referees help a team win. This is wrong. If nothing is done about this, sports fans will get angry and won't watch the Olympics.
C: I agree that these problems are serious, but I also think we should do something about the Olympic officials_ The Olympic Committee has a lot of power and sometimes uses this power the wrong way. Officials from cities that want to host the Olympics also do bad things sometimes. If we want the Olympics to be successful and popular, we must make sure that the officials don't do anything bad.
D: I am worried about the spirit of the Olympics. In my opinion, today's athletes care too much about money and winning. Winning is important, but the Olympic spirit is more important. The Olympic athletes meet to compete, but also to make friends and show that athletes and sports fans from all over the world are like a big family.

Athens Olympic 110m hurdle champion Liu Xiang felt so relieved to return to racetrack after getting out of the great number of social activities.
Liu arrived in hometown Shanghai Wednesday night and was about to resume training shortly after.
“I am so exhausted from so many social activities, which made me even more tired than training,”said the 21-year-old Liu，who wrote a new chapter in China's Olympic history by winning the country's first ever athletics short-distance running title in the men's 110m hurdles in Athens in August.
”I am happy that I will resume my training soon back in Shanghai，”said the Shanghai native. He turned into an instant national hero with the Olympic glory and one of the most popular Olympic gold medallists, taking part in scores of celebration activities since he returned to China early September.
“My regular training has been interrupted for such a long time that I think I can only run at about 13. 5 seconds now,”said Liu, who clocked a world record-tying time of12.91 to clinch the title.
“I would rather forget what I have achieved in the past and try my best to realize a higher goal，”he said.
Liu already missed the Berlin Golden League Series on Sunday and won’t be able to catch the IAAF Grand Prix final slated for September 18-19 in Monaco.
He plans on attending an IAAF all-star tournament in Japan at the end of this month.

This hotel in the trees is famous in the world. People who know very little about Kenya, know
of Treetops. When King George VI died, Princess Elizabeth was staying on the Treetops, and when she came down from there，“she succeeded to become the queen of the country“．This hotel in the middle of the forest shows the pleasure of Africa.

When Rikke Dausen in Denmark goes to get some milk from the fridge，she has trouble getting past the refrigerator door. But it's not because of any physical obstruction（障碍）．It's usually because the PC monitor in her refrigerators door has informed her that a new e-mail message has arrived. Rikke and her husband are taking Dart in a six-month trial sponsored by a Danish firm and two Swedish partners. They hope to show that computers can be put to much more practical daily use than most people think. Fifty families and singles were provided with a free model known as the “Screen fridge” for the duration of trial.
“It's really very clever,”says Rikke. She can call up e-mail，news reports，sales items at the supermarket or addresses out of the endless ocean of Internet possibilities. “I’m not the type who wants to sit in front of the computer and wait 10 minutes for the modem to connect, ”she says. The creators of the Screen fridge aim at this type of buyer. They think that the machine should attract people who have limited time to solve technical problems or surf online. The PC that is built into the door is very small. It is only two centimeters wide, and completely silent. Everything moves quickly, as Rikke admits. Well，the whole thing is really just an amusement, she says. But when the thing is gone after the test, it will be a pain to have to go down in the basement again to download my e-mail.
68. The writer gives a description of Rikke using the Screen fridge in order to _____.
A. report Rikke's daily life
B. prove the value of PC
C. introduce the new product
D. describe modern life
69. For what purpose is the Screen fridge made?
A. To improve the e-mail service.
B. To help those who cannot use computers.
C. To make refrigerators more useful.
D. To make computers more convenient.
70. How long has Rikke probably been using the Screen fridge?
A. Several months B. Several years
C. More than a year D. Several hours
71. From what Rikke says at the end of the text we can feel that she _____.
A. is sorry she has to download her e-mail in the basement
B. wishes she would continue to use the Screen fridge
C. is not satisfied with all of the Screen fridge.
D. doubts whether she can really depend on the Screen fridge

Sometimes the real world can be a confusing place. It is not always fair or kind. And in the real world there are not always happy endings, That is why, every once in a while, we like to escape into the world of fantasy-place where things always go our way and there is always a happy ending.
We want to believe in fantastic creatures in imaginary lands. We want to believe magic powers, good friends, and the power of good to overcome evil. We all fantasize， bout being able to fly and lift buildings off the ground. And how good a magic sword would feel in our hand as we go off to kill a dragon，or win the hand of a beautiful princess.
The amazing adventures of Superman, Peter Pan, and Harry Potter have charmed many people, children and adults alike. The main reason is that these smiles offer us chances to get away from this real, frustrating world and allow us to find some magical solutions to our problems. For example, Superman always arrives in the nick of time to prevent a disaster from happening, Peter Pan can fly at will to tease the bad guy Captain Hook, and Harry Potter has his magic power to take revenge on his uncle, aunt and cousin, who always ill-treat him.

It is hard to track the blue whale, the ocean’s largest creature which has almost been killed off by commercial whaling and is now listed as an endangered species. Attaching radio equipment to it is difficult and visual sightings are too unreliable to give real insight into its behavior.
So biologists were delighted early this year when with the help of the Navy they were able to track a particular blue whale for 43 days monitoring its sounds. This was possible because of the Navy’s formerly top-secret system of underwater listening equipment spanning the oceans. Tracking whales is but one example of an exciting new world just opening to civilian scientists after the cold war as the Navy starts to share and partly uncover its global network of underwater listening system built over the decades to track the ships of potential enemies.
Earth scientists announced at a news conference recently that they used the system for closely monitoring a deep-sea volcanic eruption for the first time and that they plan similar studies. Other scientists have proposed to use the network for tracking ocean currents and measuring changes in ocean and global temperatures. The speed of sound in water is roughly one mile a second-slower than through land but faster than through air. What is most important, different layers of ocean water can act as channels for sounds focusing them in the same way a stethoscope does when it carries faint noises from a patient’s chest to a doctor’s ear. This focusing is the main reason that even relatively weak sounds in the ocean especially low frequency ones can often travel thousands of miles.
62. The passage is chiefly about _____.
A. an effort to protect an endangered marine species
B. the civilian use of a military detection system.
C. the exposure of a U. S. Navy top-secret weapon.
D. a new way to look into the behavior of blue whales.
63. The underwater listening system was originally designed _____.
A. to mark and locate enemy ships
B. to monitor deep-sea volcanic eruptions
C. to study the movement of ocean currents
D. to replace the global radio communications network
64. The deep-sea listening system makes use of _____.
A. the complex technology of focusing sounds under water
B. the capacity of sound to travel at a high speed
C. the special quality of layers of ocean water in sending out sound
D. low-frequency sounds traveling across different layers of water
65. It can be inferred from the passage that _____.
A. new radio equipment should be developed for tracking the endangered blue whales.
B. blue whales are no longer endangered with the use of the new listening system
C. opinions differ as to whether civilian scientists should be allowed to use military technology
D. military technology has great potential in civilian use
66. Which of the following is true about the U. S. Navy underwater listening network?
A. It is now partly used by civilian scientists.
B. It has been replaced by a more advanced system.
C. It became useless to the military after the cold war.
D. It is necessary in protecting endangered species.

Nominations for the Academy Awards will be announced on Feb.12, and the safest prediction is that everyone will find something to complain about. But of course the Oscars are not “fair”. They have always been more about remarkable scenes and excessive advertisements than about the reasonable recognition of talent.
In the 73-year history of the Academy Awards, women have been nominated for best director exactly twice. Yet the motion picture academy would never consider crewing a category for “best directress”.
Even in fields where there are more women, they tend to fare poorly against men. Of the 146 writers nominated for an Academy Award in the last decade, for example, only 16 have been women. No one favors separate awards for male and female screenwriters.
And if the idea is to recognize professionals who tend to be ignored in Hollywood, then there ought to be a separate award for black actors. You think women have it hard in Hollywood? Only one black actor has ever won the top award and only 13 have ever been nominated, compared with 300 white actors.
The Academy Awards indulge in sexual difference because the Oscars are, first and foremost, about glitz. Actress are more in the public eye than almost anyone else in Hollywood. No offence to the male actors in their black or white evening dresses, but on Oscar night, it’s the women who bring the attraction. Audiences want to see this year’s dresses and hairstyles. Studios want female stars to help them sell tickets.
67. How many men have been nominated for best screenwriter in the history of Academy Awards?
A. 16 B. 146 C. 162 D. 130
68. The author mentioned two important things in this passage, they are _____.
A. Hollywood and Academy awards
B. Hollywood and sexual separation
C. actors and actresses
D. racial discrimination and sexual difference
69. In “No offence to the male actors”(Para 5). What does the word “offence” probably mean?
A. disrespect B. crime C. anger D. disagreement
70. As for the situation of African-Americans. Which of the following is true?
A. Only one black actor has ever been nominated for the Academy Awards.
B. Only one black artist has ever won the best director title.
C. Only 16 black actors have ever been nominated for best actor.
D. African-Americans experience more unfair treatment.
71. Which of the following statement is true in this passage?
A. The Academy Awards has a 73-year history.
B. Two women won the best director title in the history of the Academy Awards.
C. Many professionals support separate awards for male and female screenwriters.
D. On Oscar night, studios want super stars to help them sell tickets.

About six years ago I was eating lunch in a restaurant in New York City when a woman and a young boy sat down at the next table. I couldn't help overhearing parts of their conversation. At one point the woman asked, “So, how have you been?” And the boy who could not have been more than seven or eight years old replied, “Frankly, I've been feeling a little depressed lately.”
This incident stuck in my mind because it strengthened my growing belief that children are changing. As far as I can remember, my friends and I didn't find out we were ”depressed" until we were in high school. The evidence of a change in children has increased steadily in recent years. Children don't seem childlike any more. Children speak like adults, dress more like adults and behave more like adults than they used to.
Whether this is good or bad is difficult to say, but it certainly is different. Childhood as it once was no longer exists. Why?
Human development is based not only on born biological states, but also on patterns of access（进人）to social knowledge. Movement from one social role to another usually involves learning the secrets of the new situation. Children have always been taught adult secrets, but slowly and in stages: traditionally，we tell sixth graders things we keep hidden from fifth graders.
In the last 30 years, however, a secret-revelation（揭示）machine has been fixed in 98 percent of American homes. It is called television. Television passes information, indiscriminately（不加区分地），to all viewers Mike, whether they are children or adults. Unable to resist the temptation（诱惑），many children turn their attention from printed texts to the less challenging, more vivid moving pictures.
Communication through print, as a matter of fact, allows for a great deal of control over the social information to which children have access. Reading and writing involve a complex code of symbols that must be memorized and practiced. Children must read simple books before they can read complex materials.
72. Traditionally, a child is supposed to learn about the adult world
A. through touch with society
B. gradually and under guidance
C. naturally and by biological instinct（本能）
D. through exposure to social information
73. In the author's opinion, the phenomenon that today's children seem adultlike is caused by ___.
A. the widespread influence of television
B. the poor arrangement of teaching content
C. the fast step of human intellectual development
D. the constantly rising standard of living
74. Why is the author in favor of communication through print for children?
A. It enables children to gain more social information.
B. It develops children's interest in reading and writing.
C. It helps children to memorize and practice more.
D. It can control what children are to learn.
75. What does the author think of the change in today's children?
A. He feels amused by the children's adultlike behavior
B. He thinks it is a phenomenon worthy of note.
C. He considers it a positive development.
D. He seems to be upset about it.
