Kenyan police say one person was killed and 26 injured in an explosion at a bus station in central Nairobi.
The blast hit a bus about to set off for the Ugandan capital Kampala. Last July, the Somali group al-Shabab said
it was behind the blasts in the Ugandan capital which killed more than 70 people. Will Ross reports from the
Kenyan capital.
The explosion happened beside a bus which was about to set off for an overnight journey from Nairobi to the
Ugandan capital Kampala. Some eyewitnesses report that a bag was about to be loaded on board, but it
exploded during a security check. Windows of the red bus were left smashed, and blood could be seen on the
ground beside the vehicle. Just hours earlier, Uganda’s police chief had warned of possible Christmas-time
attacks by Somali rebels.
1. What is the news report mainly about?
2. When did the incident occur?

听力原文：Many of its 800 stores are likely to close following the company’s decision to call in
administrators after an attempt to sell the business for a token £1 failed.
听力原文：
Woolworths is one of the best known names on the British High Street. It’s been in business nearly a century.
Many of its 800 stores are likely to close following the company’s decision to call in administrators after an
attempt to sell the business for a token £1 failed.
The company has huge debts. The immediate cause for the collapse has been Britain’s slide toward
recession, which has cut into consumer spending. However, the business had been in trouble for years.
Known for low-priced general goods, Woolworths has struggled in the face of competition from
supermarkets expanding beyond groceries and a new generation of internet retailers.
Many of the store group’s 25,000 employees are likely to lose their jobs. Some profitable areas such as the
DVD publishing business will survive.
3. What do we learn about Woolworths from the news report?
4. What did Woolworths attempt to do recently?
Questions 5 to 7 will be based on the following news item.
5. A) All taxis began to use meters.
B) All taxis got air conditioning.
C) Advertisements were allowed on taxis.
D) Old taxis were replaced with new cabs.
听力原文：That’s due in part to the removal of many of the capital’s old-fashioned black and white taxis.
6. A) A low interest loan scheme.C) Taxi passengers’ complaints.
B) Environmentalists’ protests.D) Permission for car advertising.
听力原文：After new legislation demanded their removal from the roads, a low interest loan scheme was set
up with three Egyptian banks so drivers could buy new cars.
7. A) There are no more irregular practices.
B) All new cabs provide air-conditioning.
C) New cabs are all equipped with meters.
D) New legislation protects consumer rights.
听力原文：The idea has proved popular with customers ― they can now travel in air-conditioned comfort
and because the new cabs are metered, they don’t have to argue over fares.
听力原文：
Cairo is known for its overcrowded roads, irregular driving practices and shaky old vehicles, but also for its
air pollution. In recent months, though, environmental studies indicate there have been signs of improvement.
That’s due in part to the removal of many of the capital’s old-fashioned black and white taxis. Most of these dated
back to the 1960s and 70s and were in a poor state of repair.
After new legislation demanded their removal from the roads, a low interest loan scheme was set up with
three Egyptian banks so drivers could buy new cars. The government pays about $900 for old ones to be
discarded and advertising on the new vehicles helps cover repayments.
The idea has proved popular with customers ― they can now travel in air-conditioned comfort and
because the new cabs are metered, they don’t have to argue over fares. Banks and car manufacturers are glad
for the extra business in tough economic times. As for the taxi drivers, most are delighted to be behind the wheel
of new cars, although there have been a few complaints about switching from black and white to a plain white
colour.
5. What change took place in Cairo recently?
6. What helped bring about the change?
7. Why do customers no longer argue with new cab drivers?

Now listen to the following recording and answer questions 16 to 19.
Moderator:
Hello Ladies and Gentleman, it gives me great pleasure to introduce our keynote speaker for today’s session,
Dr. Howard Miller. Dr. Miller, Professor of Sociology at Washington University, has written numerous articles
and books on the issues facing older Americans in our graying society for the past 15 years. Dr. Miller:
Dr. Miller:
Thank you for that introduction. Today, I’d like to preface my remarks with a story from my own life which I
feel highlights the common concerns that bring us here together. Several years ago when my grandparents were
well into their eighties, they were faced with the reality of no longer being able to adequately care for themselves.
My grandfather spoke of his greatest fear, that of leaving the only home they had known for the past 60 years.
Fighting back the tears, he spoke proudly of the fact that he had built their home from the ground up, and that he
had pounded every nail and laid every brick in the process. The prospect of having to sell their home and give up
their independence, and move into a retirement home was an extremely painful experience for them. It was, in my
grandfather’s own words, like having a limb cut off. He exclaimed in a forceful manner that he felt he wasn’t
important anymore.
For them and some older Americans, their so-called “golden years” are at times not so pleasant, for this
period can mean the decline of not only one’s health but the loss of identity and self-worth. In many societies,
this self-identity is closely related with our social status, occupation, material possessions, or independence.
Furthermore, we often live in societies that value what is “new” or in fashion, and our own usage of words in the
English language is often a sign of bad news for older Americans. I mean how would your family react if you
came home tonight exclaiming, “Hey, come to the living room and see the OLD black and white TV I brought!”
Unfortunately, the word “old” calls to mind images of the need to replace or discard.
Now, many of the lectures given at this conference have focused on the issues of pension reform, medical
care, and the development of public facilities for senior citizens. And while these are vital issues that must be
addressed, I’d like to focus my comments on an important issue that will affect the overall success of the other
programs mentioned. This has to do with changing our perspectives on what it means to be a part of this group,
and finding meaningful roles the elderly can play and should play in our societies.
First of all, I’d like to talk about . . .
16. What does the introduction say about Dr. Howard Miller’s articles and books?
17. What is the greatest fear of Dr. Miller’s grandfather?
18. What does Dr. Miller say the “golden years” can often mean?
19. What is the focus of Dr. Miller’s speech?

B) It has become a problem affecting global economic growth.
C) It is a common problem found in underdeveloped countries.
D) It is an issue often overlooked by parents in many countries.

22. A) Appropriated funds to promote research of nutrient-rich foods.
B) Encouraged breastfeeding for the first six months of a child’s life.
C) Recruited volunteers to teach rural people about health and nutrition.
D) Targeted hunger-relief programs at pregnant women and young children.
听力原文：Ruel says in the 1980s Thailand was able to reduce child undernourishment by recruiting a large
number of volunteers to travel the countryside teaching about health and nutrition.
Now listen to the following recording and answer questions 20 to 22.
The 2010 Global Hunger Index report was released today by the International Food Policy Research
Institute (IFPRI). It notes that, in recent years, experts have come to the conclusion that undernourishment
between conception and a child’s second birthday can have serious and long-lasting impacts.
Undernourishment during this approximately 1,000-day window can seriously check the growth and
development of children and render them more likely to get sick and die than well-fed children. Preventing hunger
allows children to develop both physically and mentally.
Says IFPRI’s Marie Ruel, “They will be more likely to perform well in school. They will stay in school longer.
And then at adulthood, IFPRI has actually demonstrated that children who were better nourished have higher
wages, by a pretty large margin, by 46 percent.”
Ruel says that means the productivity of a nation’s future generations depends in a large part on the first
1,000 days of life.
“This is why we’re all on board in focusing on those thousand days to improve nutrition. After that, the
damage is done and is highly irreversible.”
The data on nutrition and childhood development has been slowly coming together for decades. But Ruel
says scientific consensus alone will not solve the problem.
“It’s not enough that nutritionists know you have to intervene then, if we don’t have the politicians on board,
and also the...people that implement [programs] in the field.”
Ruel says there are encouraging signs that politicians and implementers are beginning to get on board. Many
major donors and the United Nations are targeting hunger-relief programs at pregnant women and young children.
They focus on improving diets or providing micro-food supplements. They improve access to pre-birth care and
encourage exclusive breastfeeding for the first six months of a child’s life.
Ruel says in the 1980s Thailand was able to reduce child undernourishment by recruiting a large number
of volunteers to travel the countryside teaching about health and nutrition.
“They really did very active promotion of diversity in the diet and good eating habits. So they were providing
more food to people, but also educating people on how to use them, and also educating people on how to feed
their young children.”
Ruel says countries may take different approaches to reducing child undernutrition. But she says nations will
not make progress fighting hunger and poverty until they begin to focus on those critical first thousand days.
20. What is the experts’ conclusion regarding children’s undernourishment in their earliest days of life?
21. What does IFPRI’s Marie Ruel say about well-fed children in their adult life?
22. What did Thailand do to reduce child undernourishment in the 1980s?
Now listen to the following recording and answer questions 23 to 25.
23. A) The guaranteed quality of its goods.
B) The huge volume of its annual sales.
C) The service it provides to its customers.
D) The high value-to-weight ratio of its goods.
听力原文：I’d like to look at a vital aspect of e-commerce, and that is the nature of the product or service.
24. A) Those having a taste or smell component.
B) Products potentially embarrassing to buy.
C) Those that require very careful handling.
D) Services involving a personal element.
听力原文：Products which are usually considered unsuitable for selling online include those that have a
taste or smell component.
25. A) Those who live in the virtual world.
B) Those who have to work long hours.
C) Those who are used to online transactions.
D) Those who don’t mind paying a little more.
听力原文: Typical users of online supermarkets include the elderly, people who work long hours and those
without their own transport.
Now listen to the following recording and answer questions 23 to 25.
I’d like to look at a vital aspect of e-commerce, and that is the nature of the product or service. There are
certain products and services that are very suitable for selling online, and others that simply don’t work.
Suitable products generally have a high value-to-weight ratio. Items such as CDs and DVDs are obvious
examples. Books, although heavier and so more expensive to post, still have a high enough value-to-weight ratio,
as the success of Amazon, which started off selling only books, shows. Laptop computers are another good
product for selling online.
Digital products, such as software, films and music, can be sold in a purely virtual environment. The goods
are paid for by online transactions, and then downloaded onto the buyer’s computer. There are no postage or
delivery costs, so prices can be kept low.
Many successful virtual companies provide digital services, such as financial transactions, in the case of
Paypal, or means of communication, as Skype does. The key to success here is providing an easy-to-use, reliable
service. Do this and you can easily become the market leader, as Skype has proved.
Products which are potentially embarrassing to buy also do well in the virtual environment. Some of the most
profitable e-commerce companies are those selling sex-related products or services. For a similar reason, online
gambling is highly popular.
Products which are usually considered unsuitable for selling online include those that have a taste or
smell component. Food, especially fresh food, falls into this category, along with perfume. Clothes and other
items that need to be tried on such as diamond rings and gold necklaces are generally not suited to virtual
retailing, and, of course, items with a low value-to-weight ratio.
There are exceptions, though. Online grocery shopping has really taken off, with most major supermarkets
offering the service. The inconvenience of not being able to see the food you are buying is outweighed by the time
saved and convenience of having the goods delivered. Typical users of online supermarkets include the elderly,
people who work long hours and those without their own transport.
23 What is important to the success of an online store?
24. What products are unsuitable for selling online?
25. Who are more likely to buy groceries online?

四.Reading in depth
Section B
Directions: In this section, you are going to read a passage with ten statements attached to it. Each statement
contains information given in one of the paragraphs. Identify the paragraph from which the information is derived.
You may choose a paragraph more than once. Each paragraph is marked with a letter. Answer the questions by
marking the corresponding letter on Answer Sheet 2.
Universities Branch Out
A) As never before in their long history, universities have become instruments of national competition as
well as instruments of peace. They are the place of the scientific discoveries that move economies forward, and
the primary means of educating the talent required to obtain and maintain competitive advantage. But at the same
time, the opening of national borders to the flow of goods, services, information and especially people has made
universities a powerful force for global integration, mutual understanding and geopolitical stability.
B) In response to the same forces that have driven the world economy, universities have become more
self-consciously global: seeking students from around the world who represent the entire range of cultures and
values, sending their own students abroad to prepare them for global careers, offering courses of study that
address the challenges of an interconnected world and collaborative (合作的) research programs to advance
science for the benefit of all humanity.
C) Of the forces shaping higher education none is more sweeping than the movement across borders. Over
the past three decades the number of students leaving home each year to study abroad has grown at an annual rate
of 3.9 percent, from 800,000 in 1975 to 2.5 million in 2004. Most travel from one developed nation to another, but
the flow from developing to developed countries is growing rapidly. The reverse flow, from developed to
developing countries, is on the rise, too. Today foreign students earn 30 percent of the doctoral degrees awarded in
the United States and 38 percent of those in the United Kingdom. And the number crossing borders for
undergraduate study is growing as well, to 8 percent of the undergraduates at America’s best institutions and 10
percent of all undergraduates in the U.K. In the United States, 20 percent of the newly hired professors in science
and engineering are foreign-born, and in China many newly hired faculty members at the top research universities
received their graduate education abroad.
D) Universities are also encouraging students to spend some of their undergraduate years in another country.
In Europe, more than 140,000 students participate in the Erasmus program each year, taking courses for credit in
one of 2,200 participating institutions across the continent. And in the United States, institutions are helping place
students in summer internships (实习) abroad to prepare them for global careers. Yale and Harvard have led the
way, offering every undergraduate at least one international study or internship opportunity—and providing the
financial resources to make it possible.
E) Globalization is also reshaping the way research is done. One new trend involves sourcing portions of a
research program to another country. Yale professor and Howard Hughes Medical Institute investigator Tian Xu
directs a research center focused on the genetics of human disease at Shanghai’s Fudan University, in
collaboration with faculty colleagues from both schools. The Shanghai center has 95 employees and graduate
students working in a 4,300-square-meter laboratory facility. Yale faculty, postdoctors and graduate students visit
regularly and attend videoconference seminars with scientists from both campuses. The arrangement benefits both
countries; Xu’s Yale lab is more productive, thanks to the lower costs of conducting research in China, and
Chinese graduate students, postdoctors and faculty get on-the-job training from a world-class scientist and his U.S.
team.
F) As a result of its strength in science, the United States has consistently led the world in the
commercialization of major new technologies, from the mainframe computer and the integrated circuit of the
1960s to the Internet infrastructure (基 础 设 施 ) and applications software of the 1990s. The link between
university-based science and industrial application is often indirect but sometimes highly visible: Silicon Valley
was intentionally created by Stanford University, and Route 128 outside Boston has long housed companies spun
off from MIT and Harvard. Around the world, governments have encouraged copying of this model, perhaps most
successfully in Cambridge, England, where Microsoft and scores of other leading software and biotechnology
companies have set up shop around the university.
G) For all its success, the United States remains deeply hesitant about sustaining the research-university
model. Most politicians recognize the link between investment in science and national economic strength, but
support for research funding has been unsteady. The budget of the National Institutes of Health doubled between
1998 and 2003, but has risen more slowly than inflation since then. Support for the physical sciences and
engineering barely kept pace with inflation during that same period. The attempt to make up lost ground is
welcome, but the nation would be better served by steady, predictable increases in science funding at the rate of
long-term GDP growth, which is on the order of inflation plus 3 percent per year.
H) American politicians have great difficulty recognizing that admitting more foreign students can greatly
promote the national interest by increasing international understanding. Adjusted for inflation, public funding for
international exchanges and foreign-language study is well below the levels of 40 years ago. In the wake of
September 11, changes in the visa process caused a dramatic decline in the number of foreign students seeking
admission to U.S. universities, and a corresponding surge in enrollments in Australia, Singapore and the U.K.
Objections from American university and business leaders led to improvements in the process and a reversal of
the decline, but the United States is still seen by many as unwelcoming to international students.
I) Most Americans recognize that universities contribute to the nation’s well-being through their scientific
research, but many fear that foreign students threaten American competitiveness by taking their knowledge and
skills back home. They fail to grasp that welcoming foreign students to the United States has two important
positive effects: first, the very best of them stay in the States and—like immigrants throughout
history—strengthen the nation; and second, foreign students who study in the United States become ambassadors
for many of its most cherished (珍视) values when they return home. Or at least they understand them better. In
America as elsewhere, few instruments of foreign policy are as effective in promoting peace and stability as
welcoming international university students.
