English Weekly CET-6 Listening Practice Test Ⅲ
Part III Listening Comprehension
Section A
Directions: In this section, you will hear 8 short conversations and 2 long conversations. At the end of each conversation, one or more questions will be asked about what was said. Both the conversation and the questions will be spoken only once. After each question there will be a pause. During the pause, you must read the four choices marked A), B), C) and D), and decide which is the best answer. Then mark the corresponding letter on Answer Sheet 2 with a single line through the centre.
11. M: How about going to see the movie at the North Sea Theater tonight?
W: I’d love to, but I have got to go over my lessons for tomorrow’s English quiz.
Q: What can be inferred about the woman?
12. M: I have been watering and trimming my plants twice each week, but they are still not growing well in my dorm room.
W: You should not keep them in the corner. Putting them directly in front of the window would be a good idea.
Q: What does the woman imply?
13. M: Oh, I am terribly sorry. I will pay the bill for your new blouse’s cleaning.
W: Don’t worry about it. It could happen to anyone…you didn’t do it deliberately. And I am sure that orange juice won’t stain the fiber.
Q: What can be inferred about the woman?
14. M: You haven’t seen a black notebook, have you? I really hope I didn’t leave it in the classroom.
W: Did you check that pile of books and papers you put on the desk last night?
Q: What does the woman imply?
15. W: I have been in bed for days because of a bad cold. Fortunately, some interesting and uptodate magazines have accompanied me.
M: Well, I will rush into the bookstore and buy you more.
Q: What will the man probably do?
16. W: I need a place to live next term. The ride back and forth to class everyday makes me very tired.
M: Did you check out the North Dorm? The rooms are large and with good equipment. What’s more, the rent is very reasonable.
Q: What does the man mean？
17. W: I hope I will be able to find Tina’s little sister at the bus station. All I know is that she is seven years old and has long hair.
M：I could go with you. I met her a couple of years ago.
Q: What does the man imply about Tina’s little sister?
18. W: We got a thank-you note from Julie this morning. She said she has already received the T-shirt we sent.
M: That’s great. But I am not very sure if she likes the color red.
Q: What does the man care about?
Now you will hear the two long conversations.
Conversation One:
M: I really have no idea what to do during this summer holiday. I can’t bear to just sit around, and there seem to be no jobs available.
W: Why don’t you try house-sitting? Last summer my friend Tom house-sat for the Alexanders when they went away on vacation. Mr. Alexander hired Tom to stay in their house because he didn’t want it left empty.
M: You mean the Alexanders paid Tom just to live in their house?
W: It certainly wasn’t that easy. He had to mow the lawn and water the houseplants and also feed the pets. And when Boris house-sat for Mr. Alexander, he had to help him with his farm.
M: I heard about baby-sitting, and house-sitting sounds just like it---except you’re taking care of a house instead of children. It may be a suitable job for me.
W: The student employment office still has a few jobs posted.
M: Do I just have to fill out an application form?
W: Yes, and Tom and Boris had to interview with the homeowners and provide three references each.
M: That seems like a lot of trouble for a summer job.
W: Well, the homeowners want some guarantee that they can trust the house-sitter. You know, they want to make sure you’re not the type who’ll throw wild parties in their house, or move a group of friends in with you.
M: House-sitters who do that sort of thing probably aren’t paid then.
W: Usually they’re paid anyway just because the homeowners don’t want to make a fuss. But if the homeowner reported it, then the house-sitter wouldn’t be able to get another job. So why don’t you give it a try?
M: Yeah, I think I will.
Questions 19-22 are based on the conversation you have just heard.
19. What does the man want to do this summer?
20. What did the Alexanders do when they went away on holiday last summer?
21. What is one responsibility the house-sitter probably wouldn’t have?
22. How do homeowners determine the reliability of a house-sitter?
Conversation Two:
W: Good morning, sir.
M: Good morning. I wonder if you can help. I have lost my coat.
W: Where did you lose it, sir?
M: Er… I left it on the …um… on the ground yesterday morning.
W: Can you describe it?
M: Well, it’s a full-length brown overcoat with a checkered pattern on it. It’s got a wide belt, and one of those thick furry collars that keep your ears warm. It’s a very nice coat, actually.
W: Hmm. I’m afraid we haven’t got anything like that, sir. Sorry.
M: Well, to tell you the truth, I lost another coat last week. On the bus. It’s a three-quarter length coat- it’s grey, with big black buttons and a black belt.
W: Sorry, sir. Nothing like that.
M: Hmm. And then only this morning I left my white raincoat in a park. It’s got a silk lining…
W: Look, sir. I’m very busy now. If you really need a coat so badly, there’s a very good second-hand clothes shop just round the corner…
Questions 23-25 are based on the conversation you have just heard.
23. Where did the conversation probably happen?
24. What can we infer about the man?
25. What did the woman think of the man?
Section B
Directions: In this section, you will hear 3 short passages. At the end of each passage, you will hear some questions. Both the passage and the questions will be spoken only once. After you hear a question, you must choose the best answer from the four choices marked A), B), C) and D). Then mark the corresponding letter on Answer Sheet 2 with a single line through the centre.
Passage One
Judo is a sport for two players. The sport is governed by strict rules of politeness. Before and after a match the players must bow to each other. A match is won on points or superior play. A player wins a point when he holds his opponent on his back so that he is unable to move for thirty seconds; when he forces his opponent to give up by using strangleholds or armlocks; and when he makes a clean throw. A player wins a half point when he holds his opponent down for only twenty-five seconds. Kicking, hitting, and gouging are not allowed. A referee watches the players and decides who wins each point. The player who wins the necessary amount of points first wins the match. A contest or match may last up to twenty minutes.
Judo requires much physical training and instruction. Training takes place in a dojo, or gym area. In the Orient, players practice on straw mats. In Western countries a canvas wrestling mat can be used. The players wear cotton jackets and trousers circled by colored belts. A beginner wears a white belt and a more accomplished player a brown belt. Experts wear a black belt.
Questions 26 to 29 are based on the passage you have just heard.
26. According to the following statements, which one is not the way to win a point for a Judo player in a match?
27. Which action is allowed in a Judo match?
28. How does a player win in a Judo match?
29. Which kind of belt would an expert Judo player wear in a match?
Passage Two
One of the most important fields in veterinary medicine is medical research. Experiments with animals have led to discoveries that save many human lives. Cancer, heart disease, and other crippling illnesses are studied in animals. Vaccines and serums are always tested on animals before they are used on humans. Vaccines for tetanus, measles, and polio were used first on animals.
Veterinarians have made many life-saving discoveries. For example, the research of one veterinarian, on the sweet-clover disease in cattle, led to the discovery of dicoumarol. Dicoumarol prevents blood from clotting and is used in treating human heart disease.
Veterinarians have made many contributions to the exploration of space. Dogs, mice, and chimpanzees are often used to test the effects of varying atmospheric pressure on animal life before human beings are sent into space. Veterinarians study the animals carefully for the effects of space travel on their bodies. The results of these studies are used in preparing men to go into space and contribute to the safety of the astronauts.
Veterinarians share responsibility for the health and safety of our food. Their work in the cure and prevention of animal diseases has done a great deal to ensure us wholesome poultry, meat, and milk.
Veterinarians are also important in the fur industry, for animals must be healthy and well cared for if they are to grow glossy coats. Veterinarians are needed to take care of the animals in zoos and circuses. At racetracks, they inspect the dogs and horses to make sure that they have not been drugged or abused. Frequently, veterinarians are employed by the government to treat and study the wildlife in national parks and game preserves.
Questions 30 to 32 are based on the passage you have just heard.
30. Which is the most important field in veterinary medicine?
31. Before sending astronauts into space, what must be done in advance for veterinarians in a veterinary lab to help to test the safety?
32. According to the passage, for what kind of animals do veterinarians not take necessary responsibility?
Passage Three
Hotels go far back into history. There may have been inns as long ago as 500 B.C., when adventurous Greeks began to roam the world. There were hotels at Pompeii, too. Their damaged foundations were discovered in the 1800’s, but they tell very little of how these hotels were operated.
We have information about hotels in the Orient in the thirteenth century. Trade routes from Egypt and Europe into Asia were well traveled by merchants and their followers. Places in which these travelers could find shelter for the night gradually grew up along the way. At first they were only plots of ground near a spring. A little later the plots of ground were enclosed within high walls for the protection of the travelers. Still later, roofs were built over the walls. As civilization progressed, so did hotels. In time, they began to serve food and drink.
During the early Middle Ages, inns were extremely important. When civilization was centered in southern Europe and in the East, travelers who lived at great distances from one another met in inns. Travel then was a leisurely affair, and people spent days exchanging news and comments. They discussed the customs of their different countries and told one another facts, fables, poems, and stories. This word- of- mouth exchange played a great part in the spread of civilization.
The first inn to be identified by a particular name was the Great St. Bernard, established about 962 A.D. It was located in the Alps for the convenience of weary pilgrims on their way to Rome. It was a massive stone structure offering shelter for approximately three hundred people and capable of supplying beds for seventy to eighty travelers. The Great St. Bernard was first in another way too. It was the first inn to offer special service to travelers—in this case, the famous dogs kept by the monks to track down travelers who had lost their way.
Questions 33 to 35 are based on the passage you have just 
heard.
33. To when can the earliest hotel be traced back?
34. According to the passage, when civilization was centered in southern Europe and in the East, which of the functions was the most important for the hotels?
35. In the first inn with a particular name, what was the special service for travelers?
Section C
Directions: In this section, you will hear a passage three times. When the passage is read for the first time, you should listen carefully for its general idea. When the passage is read for the second time, you are required to fill in the blanks numbered from 36 to 43 with the exact words you have just heard. For blanks numbered from 44 to 46 you are required to fill in the missing information. For these blanks, you can either use the exact words you have just heard or write down the main points in your own words. Finally, when the passage is read for the third 
time, you should check what you have written.
City traffic is a great problem. More cars are produced every year and the streets are getting more and more crowded. So during “rush hour”, when people are going to or from their work, traffic is brought to a (36)standstill. It has been suggested that (37)commuters should share their cars and give each other lifts. So each car would carry four or five people instead of only one. It is an excellent idea; however, so far nobody has been able to think of a way to(38) compel people to do so.
To (39)discourage motorists from leaving their cars on the streets all day, (40)parking meters are used. When you park at a meter, you must put a coin in the (41)slot. This pays for a certain amount of time. The meter (42)records this and it shows when the time that you have paid for is expired. If the car is still there, you have to pay a fine.
Traffic (43)wardens look after the meters. They walk around the streets and check that every meter shows that money has been paid for the car parked there. (44)If a meter registers “Time expired”, the motorist who has left his car will be fined. Of course, the traffic warden cannot wait for the owner of the car to return. (45)He carries a block of printed forms, and on one of these he writes down all the details, such as the amount the driver must pay and to where he must send the money. He leaves this form on the car where the driver will be able to see it easily. (46)He usually pushes it under one of the wind shield wipers so that it will not blow away. And in case it rains before the motorist returns, the form is put in a little plastic envelope to protect it. When the driver comes back, he gets an unpleasant surprise, but it is his own fault for leaving his car for too long at a parking meter.
