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 the academic year 1995/96 there was a total of approximately 344,000 foreign students studying in the United figure of 344,000 may seem like a very large number until you compare it with the total population of 241,000, 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 the 1980s, the population grew quite example, between 1985 and 1990, the average yearly increase was %.However, the picture in the 1990s is quite rate of increase has declined quite fact, the rate of increase between 1994/95 and 1995/96 was only .5%, or one-half of one 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 example, during this same time period, that is between the academic years 94/95 and 95/96, there was a decrease in the number of students from the middle East, while the number of students from South and East Asia changes in the number of students coming from different parts of the world no doubt reflected changing economic and political ’m sure you are aware of many of these changes, and perhaps we can discuss them at our next today let’s confine our t alk 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 we have a little time left, we might quickly discuss in which geographic areas most of them go to school.
Let’s discuss the origins of the foreign student population in the United States for the academic year 1995/’s discuss it in order from those areas sending the most students to those areas sending the fewest 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 is a rather large geographical area which includes such countries as China, Korea, Pakistan, India, Malaysia, and total number of students from this area, South and East Asia was 156, other words, roughly 2 out of every 5 foreign students come from South and East 24,000 of this total were from was close behind with just a little over 23,000 next largest number of students came from the middle number of students from the middle East came to about one-third the number from South and East fourth largest number came from South came Europe, Africa, North America, and ’s recapitulate what we’ve largest number of students 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 fact, % of the total number are studying and management is close behind, however, with a total of %.The third most popular field was mathematics and computer sciences with %.As you can see, engineering with %, business and management with %, and mathematics and computer sciences with % comprise about one half of the total number of foreign students.
Let’s talk about which academic levels these students can be found students can be found studying at all levels of higher you might expect, the greatest number of them are studying at the undergraduate levelapproximately 158, second largest group study at the graduate level and that number is just under 122, rest study at junior colleges or in non-degree is at the graduate level that foreign students have the most foreign students comprise only % of the total population, they account for % of all the graduate students studying at me give you those percentages again so you can get a better feel for the overall students make up only of the
total population, but they make up % of the total graduate student population.
Well, I see that’s all the time we have ’ll have to leave discussions of 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 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," insists."For most of us it probably doesn’t make much difference how much salt we eat." Dustan’s most 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 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 ."So a recommendation that the whole population should avoid salt makes no sense."Medical experts agree that everyone should practice reasonable "moderation" in salt the average person, a moderate amount might run from four to ten grams a day, or roughly 1/2 to 1/3 of a equivalent of one to two grams of this salt allowance would come from the natural sodium in rest would be added in processing, preparation or at the with kidney, liver or heart problems may have to limit dietary salt, if their doctor even the very vocal "low salt" exponent, Hull Hayes, 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 ."Salt is the natural component of all human tissue, and the idea that you don’t need it is your doctor has proven that you have a salt-related health problem, there is no reason to give it up."
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.
’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’s blood pressure.[C] the reduction of salt intake can cure a hypertensive patient.[D] an extremely low-salt diet makes no difference to anyone.
the third paragraph, implies that[A] people should not be afraid of taking excessive salt.[B] doctors should not advise people to avoid salt.[C] an adequate to excessive salt intake is recommended for people in disease.[D] excessive salt intake has claimed some victims in the general population.
phrase "vocal ...exponent" (line 2, most probably refers to[A] eloquent doctor.[B] articulate opponent.[C] loud speaker.[D] strong advocate.
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 Questions 1 - 5, choose the most suitable paragraph from the list A - F to fit into each of the numbered is one paragraph which does not fit in any of the your answers on ANSWER SHEET 1.
From her vantage point she watched the main doors swing open and the first arrivals pour who had been at the head of the line paused momentarily on entry, looked around curiously, then quickly moved forward as others behind pressed moments the central public area of the big branch bank was filled with a chattering, noisy building, relatively quiet less than a minute earlier, had become a 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 in no ’s something I’d like you to explain."Two other desks were quickly manned by other 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 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’t possibly process all these people today, and however many we do will tie us up completely.""I’ve an idea," Edwina said, "that’s what someone has in hurry the processing all you can."
3
First, an application form called for details of residence, employment, social security, and family specimen signature was proof of identity was that, the new accounts clerk would take all documents to an officer of the bank for approval and , a savings passbook was made out or a temporary checkbook 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 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 could see a few of them outside, regarding the milling scene with she watched, several gave up and walked the bank some of the newcomers were engaging tellers in conversation and the tellers,having nothing else to do because of the melee, chatted 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 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.
she knew however much they hurried it would still take ten to fifteen minutes to open any single new always paperwork required that time.
still no hostility was in the now jam-packed bank who was spoken to by members of the staff answered politely and with a seemed, Edwina thought, as if all who were here had been briefed to be on best behavior.
security guard directed him, "Over there for new accounts." The guard pointed to a desk where a clerka young girlsat 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.
leaning close to the intercom, it was hard to hear above the noise.
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.
someone had alerted the press in advance, which explained the presence of the TV camera crew wondered who had done it.

"Diana was the godmother of Mrs. Monckton's daughter Dominica The British citizens show their satisfaction with this name via Intemet. They said it is the perfect name for their lovely princess.

公共英语考试中的注意事项 公共英语考试中的注意事项 (一)明确答卷要求，严格执行 在考场上，监考人员会讲一些要求，如，怎样填写姓名、准考证号，怎样填写答案(特别是标准化考试)等等，务必听清楚，并严格 照办。有时，监考人员还会对试题作一些说明或更正，更要听准， 若有不明立即问清。千万不要拿到试卷就急于埋头做，造成没按格 式要求而乱填、漏填或没按要求做错题等严重后果。 (二)通览试卷，考虑答题计划 接到试卷首先要看清楚试卷前面的说明和要求，随后冷静、迅速地认真通览一遍试卷。这样做的好处是：(1)接触每一道题，初步掌 握题意，为正式审题解答题打下基础。(2)能够了解整体分量，难易 试题的比例和分布，做到心中有数。有些同学错以为通览试卷浪费 时间，其实恰恰相反，这样才能预防错漏，少走弯路，合理利用时间，提高答卷效率。安排答题计划应考虑两个主要准则：一是自己 对考试的熟知程度;二是不同考题的分值。安排好了准备用于每道题 的时间后，就要按计划去做。要记住，对每一道题都写出一点答案来，远比详尽无遗地答一道题，而对其他试题却一字不答为好。 (三)先易后难，巧攻难题 统观全卷之后，对于较容易的题目，应先做解答，以便集中精力攻克难题，这样才能合理利用时间，提高考试成绩，而不至于因一 两道难题耗去大部分时间，致使一些较浅易的试题由于时间仓促而 解答粗疏，造成错误，甚至有时还来不及解答。再者，刚一进考场，一般同学心情比较紧张，记忆、思维等方面都达不到最佳状态，待 做过几道题之后，情绪就逐渐稳定下来，智力活动恢复正常，这时
再做较难的题就容易奏效。而且做的"小题"越多，"积分越多"，自 信心也就越强。 如何攻克难题是应考中夺取优异成绩的关键，一定要认真对待。总结许许多多考生的经验，宜采取寻找弱点、多方突破、攻撤交替、反复突击的办法攻克难题。首先应相信，考题再难一般也不会超过 所学知识范围，因之都有解答可能，解答关键在于灵活运用知识。 有的难题是难在拐弯多，综合性强。遇到这种题目，就可以利用类 比法找出其与同类型题目的异同，然后运用相应的解题规律寻求突 破点。这个突破点攻不下来，再换一个角度，几经突击，往往即可 攻克;如果运用几种方法，几经突击，耗费了不少时间和精力，仍不 得解，再这样的情况下，就应暂时"撤兵"，先去复查你做过得题目，让脑子得以放松休息，稍待一会再发动攻势，往往会茅塞顿开，迎 刃而解。 有些难题则是由于遗忘造成的'。遇到这样的题目，可以运用联 想和对比的方法把旧知识回忆推导出来。如数学中对数函数、三角 函数的性质比较重要，但又难记易忘。考场上一旦忘记，完全可以 利用图象回忆、推导出来，正如学地理课脑子里要有一个地球仪、 一张地图一样。物理课中的一些公式、历史课中的一些年代，更可 以利用相关知识仔细推导出来。 在解答比较复杂的题目时，一定要"袖手于前"、落笔在后。就是在答卷之前深思熟虑，特别要抓主要点，严格解题步骤，然后再一 挥而就。这既可以防止误走弯路，又可避繁就简，还节省文字、时间。文科答案力求要点明确、突出，有血有肉;理科答案力求合乎逻辑，步骤严格。要注意严防只答其一、不答其二，也不要眉毛胡子 一把抓。 (四)审清题意 审清题意就是要细心读题，推敲题意，掌握已知条件，看准未知条件;判断该题是属于哪部分知识范围，明确解答该题需要那些基础 知识和技能技巧，联想与过去做过的习题有什么异同。认定了知识 范围，就确定了它的性质;明确了所需要用的双基知识，就找到了解
2020 年全国公共英语等级考试PETS 三级模拟试题Text Most young people enjoy physical activities, walking, cycling, football, or mountaineering. These who have a passion 26 climbing high and difficult mountains are often 27 with astonishment. Why are men and women 28 to suffer cold and hardship, and to 29 on high mountains? This astonishment is caused, probably, by the difference between mountaineering and other forms of activities 30 which men give their leisure. There are no man-made rules, as there are for 31 as golf and football. There are, of course, rules of different kinds which it would be dangerous to 32 , but it is this freedom from man-made rules 33 makes mountaineering attractive to many people. Those who climb mountains are free to their own 34 . If we 35 mountaineering with other more familiar sports, we might think that one big difference is 36 mountaineering is not a “team work ” . However, it is only our misunderstanding. There are, in fact, no ：matches” 37 “teams” of climbers, but when climbers are on a rock face linked by a rope on which their lives may 38 , obviously, there is teamwork. A mountain climber knows that he may have to fight with natural 39 that ate stronger and more powerful than man. His sport requires high mental and 40 qualities.
