SECTION 1: LISTENING TEST Part A: Sport Dictation Directions: In this part of the test, you will hear a passage and read the same passage with blanks in it. Fill in each of the blanks with the word or words you have heard on the tape. Write your answer in the corresponding space in your answer booklet. Remember you will hear the passage only once. Now let’s begin Part A with Spot Dictation. Experience is the great teacher. A student needs to be well versed in the theory. In other words, he can learn a great deal from books, but it is the experience of the situations and the application of this knowledge that will eventually count. With this in mind, many schools nowadays have incorporated into their curricula activities of outdoor education, such as field trips, camping holidays and mountain area expeditions. To our students from large cities, the countryside has two fascinating aspects: one is the vast wealth of wild life, historical relics and scenic grandeur that is part of our heritage; the other is the pure joy of physical exhilaration which is part and parcel of every trek or exploration. If we fail to exploit both to the full, we are the losers. While enjoying the former, we have moved into the realms of the latter without realising it. There should be no doubt about the very real physical benefits to be gained by participating in out-door activities. Although physical education in schools has expanded considerably, the general picture is still of isolated classroom periods dotted here and there throughout the academic year. In the wider field of outdoor activities, however, the physical effort, even though it may only involve walking, continues over long periods and often on a daily basis for several days on end. The physical improvement is very obvious and can easily be measured after as short a time as, say, ten days. The wide range of outdoor activities increases the opportunities for success. And there are many instances in which young students have tasted the lasting satisfaction of their first real achievement, often under testing situations. This is a basic essential and breeds self-respect as well as respect for others. Furthermore, it often produces an air of self-confidence which more formal education may well have damaged in some students. Part B: Listening Comprehension Ⅰ. Statements Directions: In this part of the test you will hear several short statements. These statements will be spoken ONLY ONCE, and you will not find them written on the paper; so you must listen carefully. When you hear a statement, read the answer choices and decide which one is closest in meaning to the statement you have heard. Then write the letter of the answer you have chosen in the corresponding space in your ANSWER BOOKLET. Questions 19 to 22 are based on the following interview in a sport programme. (Woman) Mr. Deluca, you’ve been a racing-driver for nearly 10 years. You’ve had a very dangerous life, haven’t you? I mean, you’ve almost been killed a couple of times during these years, haven’t you? (Man) Yes, I suppose that’s right. (Woman) When was your worst accident? (Man) I’d say last year. It was during the British Grand Prix last September. In the the middle of the race I smashed into a wall. The car was completely ruined and my left leg was broken. Luckily, nobody was killed. (Woman) Is that the only time you’ve been… er… close to death? (Man) No. Once, during the Mexican Grand Prix, two cars in front of me had a bad accident. One of them ran into the other. I swerved to avoid them and hit a fence. My car was badly damaged but luckily I wasn’t even hurt. (Woman) You must enjoy danger. I mean, you wouldn’t be a racing-driver if you didn’t, would you? (Man) I don’t know about that. I had a very frightening experience quite recently. I was frightened to death! I thought I was going to be killed at any moment. (Woman) Really? When was that? During your last race? (Man) No. It was on my way to this studio. I had to drive through London streets during the lunch hour. There were so many cars all around me and they are so close to each other. Question No.19. Why does the woman say that the man has led a dangerous life? Question No.20. According to the man, when was his worst accident? Question No.21. What happened during the Mexican Grand Prix? Question No.22. What frightening experience did the man have quite
