听力原文： Cambridge must be one of the best-known towns in the world, and can be found on most tourists' lists of places to visit. The main reason for its fame is its universities which started during the 13th century and grew steadily. Until today there are more than twenty colleges.

The university was exclusively for men until 1871 when the first women's college was opened. Another was opened two years later and a third in 1954. In the 1960s, most colleges opened their doors to both men and women. Almost all the colleges are now mixed, but it will be many years before there are equal numbers of both sexes.

What is the main reason why Cambridge is one of the best-known towns in the world？

A．Because it is a favorite place for tourists.

B．Because it has a famous university.

C．Because the town was started in the 13th century.

听力原文：Cambridge, best known as the affluent university town crammed with leading academ

听力原文： Cambridge, best known as the affluent university town crammed with leading academics, intellectuals and some of the nation's brightest students, has been awarded a rather less enviable accolade -- the smoking capital of Britain. The typical household in Cambridge spends a staggering ￡2,183 on tobacco every year- the equivalent to smoking 25 cigarettes a day. By contrast, Bracknell, in Berkshire, is the most abstemious. There, households spend a mere ￡183 a year on tobacco, smoking an average of just two cigarettes a day.

The figures are contained in a report, published this week, which examines spending habits by postcode across the UK. Why Cambridge should top such an unhealthy league table has baffled researchers. As John Reid, the Secretary of State for Health, tried to explain last week, smoking is the addiction of choice for Britain's working classes and highest consumption is usually found in the poorest areas of the country -- three suburbs of Liverpool make the top 10. Students may be one answer to Cambridge's position -- as anybody who has entered the university's myriad common rooms and student bars and witnessed the dense fug of smoke may attest.

Patrick Tate, principal researcher at CACI, the company behind the findings, said, "It is a weird anomaly. It doesn't tell us why it is happening but perhaps it is to do with the number of students."

What are the most prominent features of Cambridge according to the passage？

A．Busy, wealthy and intellectual.

B．Busy, wealthy and traditional.

C．Busy, abstemious and traditional.

D．Busy, intellectual and socially deprived.

听力原文：Right up to the 19th Century, Oxford and Cambridge were the only two universities

听力原文： Right up to the 19th Century, Oxford and Cambridge were the only two universities in England. Royal patronage and aristocratic money confirmed them in their position, and attempts to found new universities elsewhere all met with failure. In the 19th century, however, other universities were at last established, though by private efforts and not through government policy. The first was in London, then in Durham and Manchester.

The new universities deliberately challenged Oxford and Cambridge by choosing to study subjects like modem languages and English literature, which were not taught in the old universities. They got less influence from the established church and welcomed Catholics and even non Christians such as Jews as students. A larger number of provincial universities were established following their lead; these are the so-called "Redbrick" universities. Many of them were dependent on older universities at first, especially the University of London, but soon they became independent and began giving their own degrees. Many also became well known for their excellence in a particular subject and could offer a better course to students taking that subject than was available anywhere else in the country. After this first rapid increase in numbers and distribution, the number of English universities remained the same for nearly 40 years.

But by the 1960s a new post-war generation had grown up. Due to an increase in the birthrate following the Second World War, the school-going population was bigger than ever before. Secondary education was better and the school leaving age became higher. Naturally the demand for university places became greater, and the government responded with an ambitious university building plan. Seven new universities were planned and built, and opened their doors to the new generation of students between 1961 and 1965. It was the greatest single expansion of higher education that England has ever known.

(33)

A．Because the Parliament only supported Oxford and Cambridge.

B．Because only Oxford and Cambridge were supported by royal patronage and aristocratic money.

C．Because Oxford and Cambridge were the most important cities in England.

D．Because there were not enough students to be enrolled in more than two universities.

听力原文：When John Milton, writer of Paradise Lost, entered Cambridge University in 1625,

听力原文： When John Milton, writer of Paradise Lost, entered Cambridge University in 1625, he was already skilled in Latin after seven years of studying it as his second language at St. Paul's school, London. Like all English boys who prepared for college in grammar school, he had learned not only to read Latin but also to speak and write it fluently and correctly. His pronunciation of Latin was English, however, and seemed to have sounded strange to his friends when he later visited Italy.

Schoolboys gained their skill in Latin in a bitter way. They memorized rules to make learning by heart easier. They first made a word-for-word translation and then an idiomatic translation into English. As they increased their skill, they translated their English back into Latin without referring to the book and then compared their translation with the original. The schoolmaster was always at hand to encourage them.

After several years of study, the boys began to write compositions in imitation of the Latin writers they read. And as they began to read Latin poems, they began to write poems in Latin. Because Milton was already a poet at ten, his poems were much better than those painfully put together by other boys. During the seven years Milton spent at the university, he made constant use of his command of Latin. He wrote some excellent Latin poems which he published among his works in 1645.

(31)

A．How John Milton Wrote Paradise Lost.

B．How John Milton Became a Poet.

C．How John Milton Studied Latin.

D．How John Milton Became Famous.

听力原文：M: Hello, Li Li. Come on in. How've you been keeping recently？

W: Quite well Thanks. How's your project？

M: Great. I'm playing a consultancy role. I've only been here in China for a month, but already on very good terms with my colleagues in the Department of Computer Science. Well, sit down, please.

W: Dr. Francis, I've got a chance to go to Cambridge in August. I wonder if you could tell me something about Britain.

M: Certainly. Well, I was actually brought up in Scotland. But I'm sure I can give you some useful tips. Now, what do you want to know？

W: Things like weather. What's the temperature there？

M: The temperature in Cambridge is warmer than Scotland, around 25, because it's down south.

W: That's nice. Do you know it's 34 here？ By the way, where do you think I should stay？

M: Well, you can, I suppose, stay in the college-owned flats, which are often near where you have your classes, or even on the campus. That would certainly be convenient.

W: Yes, it would.

M: But it can also be a disadvantage because you are, in a sense, separated from ordinary society, and I think learning from society is a valuable experience.

W: So what's the alternative？

M: Maybe finding an English host family. I know of a student Ali. He told me that he had learnt a lot by staying with a British family.

W: Thanks. It's quite a good idea.

A．They will meet the friend from Argentina.

B．They will work out a contract.
