W: No, I didn't see anything in the news about it. What happened？
M: A foreign airliner was attempting to land at night in a mountainous area in Argentina and flew into a hill!
W: That sounds really terrible! Did anyone survive？
M: No, everyone aboard, including the crew, was killed instantly.
W: What were the circumstances？ Were they bad weather, a fire, or engine failure？
M: Apparently, there were some low clouds in the area, but mostly it was just miscommunication between the pilots and the air traffic controllers.
W: Weren't they both speaking in English, the official international aviation language？
M: Yes they were, but the transition from poor quality radios was slightly distorted and the accents of the Spanish speaking controllers was so strong that the pilots misunderstood a vital instruction.
W: How could a misunderstanding like that cause such a serious accident？
M: The pilots were told to descend to 22, 000 feet. The instruction actually meant22, 000 feet, but they thought they heard descend 2, 000 feet. That's a huge difference, and it should have been confirmed, but it was not. Unfortunately, the terrain of the mountains in Norweija ascend to 2, 000 feet.
W: So the pilots did descend to the wrong altitude then, because they were following the air controller's instructions.
M: Sadly enough, yes they did. It was a really bad mistake. Many people died as a result of the simply misunderstanding.
W: Wow, that's a powerful lesson on how important it can be to accurately communicate with each other.
What was the cause of the tragedy？
A．Bad weather.
B．Human error.
C．Breakdown of the engines.
D．Communications system failure.

Cartier first arrived at the Gulf of the St. Lawrence, which he wanted to explore. He did not know what to expect but he hoped that this Gulf was just an arm of the ocean between two islands. If it was, he would soon be on his way to the Far East. So he sailed upwards along the St. Lawrence River. However, instead of reaching Asia he arrived at Quebec or Stadacona, as the Indians called it. It was at this point that the term (词) "Canada" entered the country's history. Apparently (明显地) the word "Canada" came from an Indian word "Kanada", which means village. Cartier first used it when he referred to Stadacona or Quebec. What a huge "village" Canada is!
What was Cartier ordered to do？ ______.
A．To build a new country
B．To find the New World
C．To get in touch with American Indians
D．To know more about America and find a new way to Asia

听力原文： When I was growing up in America, I was ashamed of my mother's Chinese English. Because of her English, she was often treated unfairly. People in department stores, at banks, and at restaurants did not give her good service, pretended not to understand her, or even acted as if they did not hear her.
My mother realized the limitations of her English as well. When I was fifteen, she used to have me call people on the phone to pretend I was she. I was forced to ask for information or even to yell at people who had been rude to her. One time I had to call her stockbroker. I said in an adolescent voice that was not very convincing, "This is Mrs. Tan."
And my mother was standing beside me, whispering loudly, "Why he don't send me check already two week lone."
And then, in perfect English I said: "I'm getting rather concerned. You agreed to send the check two weeks ago, but it hasn't arrived."
Then she talked more loudly. "What he want？ I come to New York tell him front of his boss." And so I turned to the stockbroker again, "I can't tolerate any more excuse. If I don't receive the check immediately, I am going to have to speak to your manager when I am in New York next week."
The next week we ended up in New York. While I was sitting there red-faced, my mother, the real Mrs. Tan, was shouting to his boss in her broken English.
When I was a teenager, my mother's broken English embarrassed me. But now, I see it differently. To me, my mother's English is perfectly clear, perfectly natural. It is my mother tongue. Her language, as I hear it, is vivid, direct, and full of observation and wisdom. It was the language that helped shape the way I saw things, expressed ideas, and made sense of the world.
Questions 29 to 32 are based on the passage you have just heard.
29. Why was the speaker's mother poorly served？
30. What do we learn about the speaker from the passage？
31. What does the speaker think of her mother's English now？
32. What can we infer about Chinese English from the passage？
(33)
A．She was not very polite.
B．She was not clearly heard.
C．She was often misunderstood.
D．She was unable to speak good English.

What Makes a Soccer Player Great？
Soccer is played by millions of people all over the world, but there have only been few players who were.truly great. How did these players get that way-was it through training and practice, or are great players "born, not made"？ First, these players came from places that have had famous stars in the past-players that a young boy can look up to and try to imitate （效仿）. In the history of soccer, only six countries have ever won the World Cup--three from South America and three from Western Europe. There has never been a great national team-or a really great player-from North America or from Asia. Second, these players have all had years of practice in the game. Alfredo Di Stefano was the son of a soccer player, as was Pele.Most players begin playing the game at the age of three or four.
Finally, many great players come from the same kind of neighbourhood （聚居区）－a poor, crowded area where a boy's dream is not to be a doctor, lawyer, or businessman,but to become a rich, famous athlete or entertainer. For example, Liverpool, which produced the Beatles （甲壳虫乐队）, had one of the best English soccer teams in recent years. Pele practiced in the street with a "ball" made of rags （破布）. And George Bestlearned the tricks that made him famous by bouncing the ball off a wall in the slums （贫民窟） of Belfast.
All great players have a lot in common, but that doesn't explain why they are great.Hundreds of boys played in those Brazilian streets, but only one became Pele. The greatest players are born with some unique quality that sets them apart from all the others.
