[01:51.34]	Section A
[02:42.15]	Q11:
[02:44.21]	M: As you can see from the drawings,
[02:46.52]	the kitchen has one door into the dining room,
[02:49.39]	another into the family room and a third to the outside.
[02:53.90]	W: The door into the family room isn't big enough. Could it be made wider?
[02:59.94]	Q: What are the speakers doing?
[03:17.27]	Q12
[03:18.97]	M: I'm thinking about where to go for a bite tonight. Any suggestions, Barbara?
[03:24.75]	W: Well, how about the French restaurant near the KFC?
[03:29.51]	Frankly, I've had enough of our canteen food.
[03:33.82]	Q: What do we learn about the woman?
[03:51.08]	Q13
[03:53.26]	W: Hey, I f you can't enjoy the music at a sensible volume, why not use earphones?
[03:59.67]	I'm preparing for the speech contest.
[04:02.55]	M: Oh, sorry. I didn't realize I've being bothering you all this time.
[04:07.29]	Q: What is the man probably doing?
[04:24.26]	Q14
[04:26.66]	M: Finally, I've got the chance to p ut on my new suit tonight.
[04:30.74]	I hope to make a good impression on your family.
[04:33.71]	W: Come on! It's only a family reunion. So jeans and T-shirts are just fine.
[04:39.90]	Q: What does the woman mean?
[04:56.82]	Q15.
[04:59.46]	M: Would you like to see those pants in brown and navy blue?
[05:03.32]	These two colors are coming in this season.
[05:06.50]	W: Oh, actually grey is my favourite color,
[05:09.85]	but I prefer something made from cotton, 100% cotton I mean.
[05:15.41]	Q: What is the woman looking for?
[05:33.23]	Q16.
[05:35.53]	W: From here, the mountains look as if you could just reach out and touch them.
[05:40.95]	M: That's why I chose this lodge. It has one of the best views in Switzerland.
[05:46.50]	Q: What is the man's chief consideration in choosing the lodge?
[06:06.84]	Q17.
[06:10.07]	M: What do I have to do to apply for a passport?
[06:13.67]	W: You need proof of citizenship,either an old passport or a birth certificate and three photographs.
[06:23.46]	Then you must complete this form and pay a fee.
[06:27.69]	Q: What is the man most probably going to do?
[06:45.86]	Q18.
[06:48.21]	M: Miss, can I interest you in a pork special with serving tonight?
[06:53.20]	It's only 799, half the usual price and it's very tasty.
[06:58.92]	W: Oh really? I will try it.
[07:02.74]	Q: What does the man say about the dish?
[07:25.75]	Conversation 1
[07:28.03]	W:Good evening, and welcome to this week's business world, the program for and about business people.
[07:35.69]	Tonight we have Mr. Steven Kayne, who has just taken over and established bicycle shop.
[07:42.32]	Tell us, Mr. Kayne, what made you want to run your own store?
[07:47.30]	M: Well, I always loved racing bikes and fixing them.
[07:50.81]	When I was working full-time as a salesman for a big company, I seldom had time to enjoy my hobby.
[07:57.55]	I knew then that as soon as I had enough money to get my own business going, I'll do it.
[08:03.60]	I had my heart set on it and I didn't let anything stand in my way.
[08:08.45]	When I went down to the bank and got a business loan, I knew I'd love being my own boss.
[08:15.39]	Now my time is my own. I open the store when I want and leave when I want.
[08:21.67]	W: You mean you don't keep regular hours?
[08:25.25]	M: Well, the sign on my store says the hours are ten to six,
[08:29.86]	but if business is slower than usual, I can just lock up and take off early.
[08:35.10]	W: Have you hired any employees to work with you yet?
[08:38.32]	M: Yeah, a couple of friends of mine who love biking as much as I do.
[08:42.69]	They help me out a few days a week.
[08:45.39]	It's great because we play cards or just sit around and talk when there are no customers.
[08:52.15]	W: Thank you, Mr. Kayne. We wish you success in your new business.
[08:58.26]	Questions 19-22 are based on the conversation you have just heard.
[09:04.66]	Q19.What is the woman doing?
[09:24.65]	Q20.What did Mr. Kayne do before he took over the bicycle shop?
[09:47.04]	Q21.Why did the man take over a bicycle shop?
[10:07.40]	Q22.What do we learn about the people working in the shop?
[10:29.08]	Conversation 2
[10:31.96]	W: Well, the main activities in the region were historically steel and paper processing, I think.
[10:38.43]	M: Yes, but I'm not quite sure about the status of those industries now.
[10:43.15]	Could you tell us something about that?
[10:45.22]	W: Yes, of course. In fact, they are less significant,
[10:49.61]	but steel-related manufacturing still accounts for 44% of industrial activity.
[10:57.49]	So it's still very important. In fact, 80% of Spain's machine tools are from the Basque Country.
[11:05.77]	As for paper processing, there's still a little.
[11:09.29]	But it's no longer what it once was in the region. So, is that clear?
[11:14.91]	M: Yes, thanks.
[11:16.45]	W: Now, to get back to what I was saying, there's a lot of unemployment as well as geographical problems in the region.
[11:24.94]	M: Sorry, Victoria. What do you mean by geographical problems?
[11:29.07]	W: Well, what I mean is the area is very hilly, mountainous in parts.
[11:35.60]	So there used to be transport problems, now though there are new train links and better roads,
[11:43.98]	but it may be that some smaller towns inland remain not very well connected, is that OK?
[11:51.99]	Does that make sense? When we talk about specific location suggestions for the factory,
[11:58.27]	we'll see this in more detail, so we'll come back to this question, OK?
[12:03.24]	M: OK, right.
[12:04.62]	W: So I was about to say something about the work force in the region and the level of training and education.
[12:12.13]	In general, it's very good and improving.
[12:16.25]	Questions 23-25 are based on the conversation you have just heard.
[12:24.26]	Q23. What does the woman say about the steel-related manufacturing in the region?
[12:46.08]	Q24. What problems hinder the region's development?
[13:06.85]	Q25. What will the speakers discuss later?
[13:27.10]	Section B
[13:29.36]	Directions: In this section, you will hear 3 short passages. At the end of each passage, you will hear some questions.
[13:38.90]	Both the passage and the questions will be spoken only once.
[13:43.47]	After you hear a question, you must choose the best answer from the four choices marked A), B), C) and D).
[13:53.06]	Then mark the corresponding letter on Answer Sheet 2 with a single line through the centre.
[14:00.32]	Passage One
[14:03.42]	I first met Joe Gumps when we were both 9 years old, which is probably the only reason he is one of my best friends.
[14:11.49]	If I had first met Joe as a freshman in high school, we wouldn't even have had the chance to get to know each other.
[14:19.96]	Joe is a day student, but I am a boarding student.
[14:24.45]	We haven't been in the same classes, sports or extra curriculum activities.
[14:30.36]	Nonetheless, I spend nearly every weekend at his house, and we talk on the phone every night.
[14:37.76]	This is not to say that we would not have been compatible if we had first met in our freshman year.
[14:44.65]	Rather, we would not have been likely to spend enough time getting to know each other,
[14:49.80]	due to the lack of immediately visible mutual interests.
[14:53.62]	In fact, to be honest, I struggle even now to think of things we have in common,
[14:59.70]	but maybe that's what makes us enjoy each other's company so much.
[15:04.26]	When I look at my friendship with Joe,
[15:07.24]	I wonder how many people I've known whom I never disliked but simply didn't take the time to get to know.
[15:14.49]	Thanks to Joe, I have realized how little basis there is, for the social divisions that exist in every community.
[15:23.19]	Since this realization,I have begun to make an even more determined effort to find friends in unexpected people and places.
[15:34.06]	Questions 26-28 are based on the Passage you have just heard.
[15:41.70]	Q26. Why does the speaker say Joe Gumps become one of his best friends?
[16:04.99]	Q27. Where does the speaker spend most of his weekends?
[16:26.13]	Q28. What has the speaker learned from his friendship with Joe?
[16:48.68]	Passage 2
[16:51.15]	It was a bad night for Louis.
[16:53.61]	His research in the neighboring town had taken longer than he expected.
[16:58.96]	It was late and he was very tired when he drove home.
[17:02.89]	He turned into his building's park ing lot, but all the spaces were full.
[17:08.22]	He drove back out onto the street looking for a parking space. The first block was full.
[17:15.21]	The next block was almost empty.
[17:17.78]	Louis didn't see a no-parking sign,but he suspected that if parking were allowed there,most of the spaces would be filled.
[17:26.22]	Then he saw a small parking lot with two free spaces.
[17:30.70]	He was so glad to see them that he didn't even think to read the sign by the entrance.
[17:36.62]	He drove in, parked, and hurried home to go to bed.
[17:40.90]	The next morning he went back to the lot to get his car.
[17:45.50]	It was gone. He ran home and telephoned the city police to say that his car had been stolen.
[17:52.60]	It took the police only a minute to tell him what had happened. His car had been on a private lot.
[17:59.83]	It had been taken away by the police. Louis had to take a taxi to the city garage far from the center of town.
[18:08.86]	He had to pay a fee of $40 to get his car back.
[18:13.15]	In addition, he got a parking ticket --- his first one ever in Greenville.
[18:19.83]	Questions 29-31 are based on the Passage you have just heard.
[18:27.14]	Q29. Where did Louis intend to park his car when he came back from work one night?
[18:49.72]	Q30. What did Louis think had happened to his car the next morning?
[19:10.43]	Q31. Where did Louis finally get his car back?
[19:30.16]	Passage 3
[19:32.19]	Well, to pick up where we left off last time, I believe we agreed the creativity is a mysterious idea.
[19:40.58]	It's one of those things we all recognized when we see it.But we don't really understand what it is.
[19:47.63]	We seem to feel that some people are naturally creative, but we don't know how they got that way.
[19:54.72]	Is creativity a natural gift like good looks? Or is it something that can be acquired like knowledge?
[20:03.18]	Perhaps if we analyze the creative process carefully,
[20:07.13]	we might get some insight into what it is and how it might work in our lives.
[20:13.23]	The creative process has always been accepted as a source of all important work in the arts.
[20:21.05]	But we should not think the creativity play the role only in the arts.
[20:25.88]	Every major scientific discovery began with someone imagining the world to look differently from the way others saw it.
[20:35.02]	And this is what the creativity is all about.
[20:38.55]	Imagining the world in a new way, and despite what you may believe about the limits of your own creative imaginations,
[20:47.55]	we all have the potential to imagine the world in an absolute new way.
[20:53.44]	In fact, you were born with it. It is your birth right as a human being.
[20:59.92]	And what's more, you use it every day almost every moment of your life.
[21:06.48]	Your creative imagination is what you use to make sense of your experiences.
[21:13.18]	It's your creative mind to get the meaning from the chaos of your experiences and brings order to your world.
[21:21.64]	Questions 32-35 are based on the Passage you have just heard.
[21:29.28]	Q32: What did the speaker most probably discuss last time?
[21:50.43]	Q33: What is a widely accepted idea about the creative process?
[22:12.71]	Q34: What leads to major scientific discoveries according to the speaker?
[22:35.35]	Q35: What does the speaker imply about the creative process?
[22:56.46]	Section C
[23:53.32]	Students have been complaining more and more about stolen property.
[23:57.75]	Radios, cell phones, bicycles, pocket calculators and books have all been reported stolen.
[24:05.90]	Are there enough campus police to do the job?
[24:09.12]	There are 20 officers in the campus security division.
[24:13.60]	Their job is to handle crime, accidents, lost and found items, and traffic problems on campus.
[24:21.52]	More than half of their time is spent directing traffic and writing parking tickets.
[24:28.06]	Responding promptly to accidents and other emergencies is important, but it is their smallest job.
[24:36.00]	Dealing with crime takes up the rest of their time.
[24:40.51]	Very rarely did any violent crimes actually occur.
[24:44.66]	In the last five years there have been no murders, seven robberies,
[24:49.96]	and about sixty other violent attacks,most of these involving attacks,most of these involving fights at parties.
[24:56.57]	On the other hand, there have been hundreds of thefts and cases of deliberate damaging of public property,
[25:03.98]	which usually involves breaking windows or lights, or writing on walls.
[25:09.99]	The thefts are not the carefully planned burglaries that you see in movies.
[25:15.23]	Things get stolen when it is just easy to steal them because they are left lying around unwatched.
[25:22.15]	Do we really need more police?
[25:25.00]	Hiring more campus police would cost money,possibly making our tuition go up again.
[25:31.34]	A better way to solve this problem might be for all of us to be more careful with our things.
[25:40.58]	Read again
[25:45.65]	Students have been complaining more and more about stolen property.
[25:51.17]	Radios, cell phones, bicycles, pocket calculators and books have all been reported stolen.

[11:16.45]	W: Now, to get back to what I was saying, there' s a lot of unemployment as well as geographical problems in the region.
[11:24.94]	M: Sorry, Victoria. What do you mean by geographical problems?
[11:29.07]	W: Well, what I mean is the area is very hilly, mountainous in parts.
[11:35.60]	So there used to be transport problems, now though there are new train links and better roads,
[11:43.98]	but it may be that some smaller towns inland remain not very well connected, is that OK?
[11:51.99]	Does that make sense? When we talk about specific location suggestions for the factory,
[11:58.27]	we' ll see this in more detail, so we' ll come back to this question, OK?
[12:03.24]	M: OK, right.
[12:04.62]	W: So I was about to say something about the work force in the region and the level of training and education.
[12:12.13]	In general, it' s very good and improving.
[12:16.25]	Questions 2325 are based on the conversation you have just heard.
[12:24.26]	Q23. What does the woman say about the steelrelated manufacturing in the region?
[12:46.08]	Q24. What problems hinder the region' s development?
[13:06.85]	Q25. What will the speakers discuss later?
[13:27.10]	Section B
[13:29.36]	Directions: In this section, you will hear 3 short passages. At the end of each passage, you will hear some questions.
[13:38.90]	Both the passage and the questions will be spoken only once.
[13:43.47]	After you hear a question, you must choose the best answer from the four choices marked A, B, C and D.
[13:53.06]	Then mark the corresponding letter on Answer Sheet 2 with a single line through the centre.
[14:00.32]	Passage One
[14:03.42]	I first met Joe Gumps when we were both 9 years old, which is probably the only reason he is one of my best friends.
[14:11.49]	If I had first met Joe as a freshman in high school, we wouldn' t even have had the chance to get to know each other.
[14:19.96]	Joe is a day student, but I am a boarding student.
[14:24.45]	We haven' t been in the same classes, sports or extra curriculum activities.
[14:30.36]	Nonetheless, I spend nearly every weekend at his house, and we talk on the phone every night.
[14:37.76]	This is not to say that we would not have been compatible if we had first met in our freshman year.
[14:44.65]	Rather, we would not have been likely to spend enough time getting to know each other,
[14:49.80]	due to the lack of immediately visible mutual interests.
[14:53.62]	In fact, to be honest, I struggle even now to think of things we have in common,
[14:59.70]	but maybe that' s what makes us enjoy each other' s company so much.
[15:04.26]	When I look at my friendship with Joe,
[15:07.24]	I wonder how many people I' ve known whom I never disliked but simply didn' t take the time to get to know.
[15:14.49]	Thanks to Joe, I have realized how little basis there is, for the social divisions that exist in every community.
[15:23.19]	Since this realization, I have begun to make an even more determined effort to find friends in unexpected people and places.
[15:34.06]	Questions 2628 are based on the Passage you have just heard.
[15:41.70]	Q26. Why does the speaker say Joe Gumps become one of his best friends?
[16:04.99]	Q27. Where does the speaker spend most of his weekends?
[16:26.13]	Q28. What has the speaker learned from his friendship with Joe?
[16:48.68]	Passage 2
[16:51.15]	It was a bad night for Louis.
[16:53.61]	His research in the neighboring town had taken longer than he expected.
[16:58.96]	It was late and he was very tired when he drove home.
[17:02.89]	He turned into his building' s park ing lot, but all the spaces were full.
[17:08.22]	He drove back out onto the street looking for a parking space. The first block was full.
[17:15.21]	The next block was almost empty.
[17:17.78]	Louis didn' t see a noparking sign, but he suspected that if parking were allowed there, most of the spaces would be filled.
[17:26.22]	Then he saw a small parking lot with two free spaces.
[17:30.70]	He was so glad to see them that he didn' t even think to read the sign by the entrance.
[17:36.62]	He drove in, parked, and hurried home to go to bed.
[17:40.90]	The next morning he went back to the lot to get his car.
[17:45.50]	It was gone. He ran home and telephoned the city police to say that his car had been stolen.
[17:52.60]	It took the police only a minute to tell him what had happened. His car had been on a private lot.
[17:59.83]	It had been taken away by the police. Louis had to take a taxi to the city garage far from the center of town.
[18:08.86]	He had to pay a fee of 40 to get his car back.
[18:13.15]	In addition, he got a parking ticket his first one ever in Greenville.
[18:19.83]	Questions 2931 are based on the Passage you have just heard.
[18:27.14]	Q29. Where did Louis intend to park his car when he came back from work one night?
[18:49.72]	Q30. What did Louis think had happened to his car the next morning?
[19:10.43]	Q31. Where did Louis finally get his car back?
[19:30.16]	Passage 3
[19:32.19]	Well, to pick up where we left off last time, I believe we agreed the creativity is a mysterious idea.
[19:40.58]	It' s one of those things we all recognized when we see it. But we don' t really understand what it is.
[19:47.63]	We seem to feel that some people are naturally creative, but we don' t know how they got that way.
[19:54.72]	Is creativity a natural gift like good looks? Or is it something that can be acquired like knowledge?
[20:03.18]	Perhaps if we analyze the creative process carefully,
[20:07.13]	we might get some insight into what it is and how it might work in our lives.
[20:13.23]	The creative process has always been accepted as a source of all important work in the arts.
[20:21.05]	But we should not think the creativity play the role only in the arts.
[20:25.88]	Every major scientific discovery began with someone imagining the world to look differently from the way others saw it.
[20:35.02]	And this is what the creativity is all about.
[20:38.55]	Imagining the world in a new way, and despite what you may believe about the limits of your own creative imaginations,
[20:47.55]	we all have the potential to imagine the world in an absolute new way.
[20:53.44]	In fact, you were born with it. It is your birth right as a human being.
[20:59.92]	And what' s more, you use it every day almost every moment of your life.
[21:06.48]	Your creative imagination is what you use to make sense of your experiences.
[21:13.18]	It' s your creative mind to get the meaning from the chaos of your experiences and brings order to your world.
[21:21.64]	Questions 3235 are based on the Passage you have just heard.
[21:29.28]	Q32: What did the speaker most probably discuss last time?
[21:50.43]	Q33: What is a widely accepted idea about the creative process?
[22:12.71]	Q34: What leads to major scientific discoveries according to the speaker?
[22:35.35]	Q35: What does the speaker imply about the creative process?
[22:56.46]	Section C
[23:53.32]	Students have been complaining more and more about stolen property.
[23:57.75]	Radios, cell phones, bicycles, pocket calculators and books have all been reported stolen.
[24:05.90]	Are there enough campus police to do the job?
[24:09.12]	There are 20 officers in the campus security division.
[24:13.60]	Their job is to handle crime, accidents, lost and found items, and traffic problems on campus.
[24:21.52]	More than half of their time is spent directing traffic and writing parking tickets.
[24:28.06]	Responding promptly to accidents and other emergencies is important, but it is their smallest job.
[24:36.00]	Dealing with crime takes up the rest of their time.
[24:40.51]	Very rarely did any violent crimes actually occur.
[24:44.66]	In the last five years there have been no murders, seven robberies,
[24:49.96]	and about sixty other violent attacks, most of these involving attacks, most of these involving fights at parties.
[24:56.57]	On the other hand, there have been hundreds of thefts and cases of deliberate damaging of public property,
[25:03.98]	which usually involves breaking windows or lights, or writing on walls.
[25:09.99]	The thefts are not the carefully planned burglaries that you see in movies.
[25:15.23]	Things get stolen when it is just easy to steal them because they are left lying around unwatched.
[25:22.15]	Do we really need more police?
[25:25.00]	Hiring more campus police would cost money, possibly making our tuition go up again.
[25:31.34]	A better way to solve this problem might be for all of us to be more careful with our things.
[25:40.58]	Read again

[01:51.34]	Section A
[02:42.15]	Q11:
[02:44.21]	M: As you can see from the drawings,

[02:49.39]	another into the family room and a third to the outside.
[02:53.90]	W: The door into the family room isn' t big enough. Could it be made wider?

[03:17.27]	Q12
[03:18.97]	M: I' m thinking about where to go for a bite tonight. Any suggestions, Barbara?

[03:33.82]	Q: What do we learn about the woman?
[03:51.08]	Q13
[03:53.26]	W: Hey, I f you can' t enjoy the music at a sensible volume, why not use earphones?
[03:59.67]	I' m preparing for the speech contest.
[04:02.55]	M: Oh, sorry. I didn' t realize I' ve being bothering you all this time.
[04:07.29]	Q: What is the man probably doing?
[04:24.26]	Q14
[04:26.66]	M: Finally, I' ve got the chance to p ut on my new suit tonight.
[04:30.74]	I hope to make a good impression on your family.
[04:33.71]	W: Come on! It' s only a family reunion. So jeans and Tshirts are just fine.
[04:39.90]	Q: What does the woman mean?
[04:56.82]	Q15.
[04:59.46]	M: Would you like to see those pants in brown and navy blue?
[05:03.32]	These two colors are coming in this season.
[05:06.50]	W: Oh, actually grey is my favourite color,
[05:09.85]	but I prefer something made from cotton, 100 cotton I mean.
[05:15.41]	Q: What is the woman looking for?
[05:33.23]	Q16.
[05:35.53]	W: From here, the mountains look as if you could just reach out and touch them.
[05:40.95]	M: That' s why I chose this lodge. It has one of the best views in Switzerland.
[05:46.50]	Q: What is the man' s chief consideration in choosing the lodge?
[06:06.84]	Q17.
[06:10.07]	M: What do I have to do to apply for a passport?
[06:13.67]	W: You need proof of citizenship, either an old passport or a birth certificate and three photographs.
[06:23.46]	Then you must complete this form and pay a fee.
[06:27.69]	Q: What is the man most probably going to do?
[06:45.86]	Q18.
[06:48.21]	M: Miss, can I interest you in a pork special with serving tonight?
[06:53.20]	It' s only 799, half the usual price and it' s very tasty.
[06:58.92]	W: Oh really? I will try it.
[07:02.74]	Q: What does the man say about the dish?
[07:25.75]	Conversation 1
[07:28.03]	W: Good evening, and welcome to this week' s business world, the program for and about business people.
[07:35.69]	Tonight we have Mr. Steven Kayne, who has just taken over and established bicycle shop.
[07:42.32]	Tell us, Mr. Kayne, what made you want to run your own store?
[07:47.30]	M: Well, I always loved racing bikes and fixing them.
[07:50.81]	When I was working fulltime as a salesman for a big company, I seldom had time to enjoy my hobby.
[07:57.55]	I knew then that as soon as I had enough money to get my own business going, I' ll do it.
[08:03.60]	I had my heart set on it and I didn' t let anything stand in my way.
[08:08.45]	When I went down to the bank and got a business loan, I knew I' d love being my own boss.
[08:15.39]	Now my time is my own. I open the store when I want and leave when I want.
[08:21.67]	W: You mean you don' t keep regular hours?
[08:25.25]	M: Well, the sign on my store says the hours are ten to six,
[08:29.86]	but if business is slower than usual, I can just lock up and take off early.
[08:35.10]	W: Have you hired any employees to work with you yet?
[08:38.32]	M: Yeah, a couple of friends of mine who love biking as much as I do.
[08:42.69]	They help me out a few days a week.
[08:45.39]	It' s great because we play cards or just sit around and talk when there are no customers.
[08:52.15]	W: Thank you, Mr. Kayne. We wish you success in your new business.
[08:58.26]	Questions 1922 are based on the conversation you have just heard.
[09:04.66]	Q19. What is the woman doing?
[09:24.65]	Q20. What did Mr. Kayne do before he took over the bicycle shop?
[09:47.04]	Q21. Why did the man take over a bicycle shop?
[10:07.40]	Q22. What do we learn about the people working in the shop?
[10:29.08]	Conversation 2
[10:31.96]	W: Well, the main activities in the region were historically steel and paper processing, I think.
[10:38.43]	M: Yes, but I' m not quite sure about the status of those industries now.
[10:43.15]	Could you tell us something about that?
[10:45.22]	W: Yes, of course. In fact, they are less significant,
[10:49.61]	but steelrelated manufacturing still accounts for 44 of industrial activity.
[10:57.49]	So it' s still very important. In fact, 80 of Spain' s machine tools are from the Basque Country.
[11:05.77]	As for paper processing, there' s still a little.
[11:09.29]	But it' s no longer what it once was in the region. So, is that clear?
[11:14.91]	M: Yes, thanks.
[11:16.45]	W: Now, to get back to what I was saying, there' s a lot of unemployment as well as geographical problems in the region.
[11:24.94]	M: Sorry, Victoria. What do you mean by geographical problems?
[11:29.07]	W: Well, what I mean is the area is very hilly, mountainous in parts.
[11:35.60]	So there used to be transport problems, now though there are new train links and better roads,
[11:43.98]	but it may be that some smaller towns inland remain not very well connected, is that OK?
[11:51.99]	Does that make sense? When we talk about specific location suggestions for the factory,
[11:58.27]	we' ll see this in more detail, so we' ll come back to this question, OK?
[12:03.24]	M: OK, right.
[12:04.62]	W: So I was about to say something about the work force in the region and the level of training and education.
[12:12.13]	In general, it' s very good and improving.
[12:16.25]	Questions 2325 are based on the conversation you have just heard.

[20:38.55]	Imagining the world in a new way, and despite what you may believe about the limits of your own creative imaginations,
[20:47.55]	we all have the potential to imagine the world in an absolute new way.
[20:53.44]	In fact, you were born with it. It is your birth right as a human being.
[20:59.92]	And what' s more, you use it every day almost every moment of your life.
[21:06.48]	Your creative imagination is what you use to make sense of your experiences.
[21:13.18]	It' s your creative mind to get the meaning from the chaos of your experiences and brings order to your world.
[21:21.64]	Questions 3235 are based on the Passage you have just heard.
[21:29.28]	Q32: What did the speaker most probably discuss last time?
[21:50.43]	Q33: What is a widely accepted idea about the creative process?
[22:12.71]	Q34: What leads to major scientific discoveries according to the speaker?
[22:35.35]	Q35: What does the speaker imply about the creative process?
[22:56.46]	Section C
[23:53.32]	Students have been complaining more and more about stolen property.
[23:57.75]	Radios, cell phones, bicycles, pocket calculators and books have all been reported stolen.
[24:05.90]	Are there enough campus police to do the job?
[24:09.12]	There are 20 officers in the campus security division.
[24:13.60]	Their job is to handle crime, accidents, lost and found items, and traffic problems on campus.
[24:21.52]	More than half of their time is spent directing traffic and writing parking tickets.
[24:28.06]	Responding promptly to accidents and other emergencies is important, but it is their smallest job.
[24:36.00]	Dealing with crime takes up the rest of their time.
[24:40.51]	Very rarely did any violent crimes actually occur.
[24:44.66]	In the last five years there have been no murders, seven robberies,
[24:49.96]	and about sixty other violent attacks, most of these involving attacks, most of these involving fights at parties.
[24:56.57]	On the other hand, there have been hundreds of thefts and cases of deliberate damaging of public property,
[25:03.98]	which usually involves breaking windows or lights, or writing on walls.
[25:09.99]	The thefts are not the carefully planned burglaries that you see in movies.
[25:15.23]	Things get stolen when it is just easy to steal them because they are left lying around unwatched.
[25:22.15]	Do we really need more police?
[25:25.00]	Hiring more campus police would cost money, possibly making our tuition go up again.
[25:31.34]	A better way to solve this problem might be for all of us to be more careful with our things.
