The visual outline framework used in both the preparation outline and the speaking outline
第1题
听力原文: One of ray main goals in this survey course of American painting and architecture is to train you to see. I want you to increase your stock of visual experiences by using the slide library at least five hours a week. The library, which is maintained by the Art History Department, is located in the basement of the Art Center, and is open seven days a week.
By the end of this course, I expect you to be able to identify two thousand slides of various American works of art. Slide identification questions will appear on the weekly exam and the final. During each of the ten weeks of this course, I will show a set of two hundred slides during my lectures. You should plan on looking at each set twice in the slide library, once before the week's lectures end one after. This pattern of three exposures will improve your visual memory. Please do not remove the slides from the slide library. Doing so is a cause for dismissal from the course.
Although becoming familiar with two thousand slides may sound difficult, experience has shown me that this is the beast way to increase the visual abilities of students such as yourselves, who have never taken an art history course before.
(33)
A.The material to be tested that day.
B.The history of the slide library.
C.The use of slides in the course.
D.The outline of the course.

The Need to Remember
Some people say they have no memory at all: "I just can't remember a thing!" But of course we all have a memory. Our memory tells us who we are. Our memory helps us to make use In the present of what we have learnt in the past.
in fact we have different types of memory. For example, our visual memory helps us recall facts and places. 'Some people have such a strong visual memory, they can remember exactly what they have seen, for example, pages of a book, as a complete picture.
Our verbal (言语的) memory helps us remember words and figures we may have heard but not seen or written: items of a shopping list, a chemical formula, dates, or a recipe.
With our emotional (情感的) memory, we recall situations or places where we had strong feelings, perhaps of happiness or unhappiness. We also have special memories for smell, taste, touch and sound, and for performing physical movements.
We have two ways of storing any of these memories. Our short-term memory stores items for up to thirty seconds enough to remember a telephone number while we dial. Our long-term memory, on the other hand, may store items for a lifetime. Older people in fact have a much better long-term memory than short-term. They may forget what they have done only a few hours ago, but have the clearest remembrance (记忆) of when they were very young.
Psychologists tell us that we only remember a few facts about our past, and that we invent the rest. It is as though we remember only the outline of a story. We then make up the details. We often do this in the way we want to remember them, usually so that we appear as the heroes of our own past or maybe victims needing sympathy (同情).
Visual memory helps us recall a place we have been to.
A.Right
B.Wrong
C.Not mentioned

Part B
Directions:
Read the following discussion among five people about workplace dress, for questions 61 to 65, match the name of each person (61 to 65) to one of the statements (A to G) given below. Mark you answers on your ANSWER SHEET 1.
Marian:
I have a friend who is a team leader of about 25 employees who are primarily women. She's found a trick that works for her most of the time, but not always. Those staff who appear in much less than professional dressing are asked if their mother and father would think appropriate a picture of them dressed in what they believe is "OK" for work. If they say "yes", she then takes a picture and asks them to send it home. Having a camera helps. Having a visual proof drives her message home.
Catherine:
I think it really boils down to a moral question. Is it morally "right" to use our body to move ahead in business? Or should we instead emphasize intelligence, capabilities, creative and independent thought, professionalism, and other such qualities which many, many women possess, but whom are routinely neglected for promotions and are never glorified or emphasized in our culture. It's okay to be a tough, competent lawyer like Ally Mcbeai, but you won't get noticed unless you look good in really short skirts. Having a nice body is a plus, but I think that there are tons and tons of styles of dress which can show off a nice body in a professional way.
Roger:
A lot of employees have finally gotten the message about inappropriate (不合适的) dress-down items such as jeans, shorts, revealing tops, etc. They are starting to wear the proper dress-down clothes. However, wearing the appropriate dress-down clothes doesn't mean you're excused from ironing and it' s certainly no license to wear dirty clothes. Wash and iron people! And guys, tuck your shirts in and put on a pair of socks!
Briggs:
I work in a large company that has adopted the business code. They have an outline of what is acceptable and what is not. On it you find the typical, no blue jeans, no mini-skirts, no bare feet or legs and that type of thing. I guess I agree with Jessica. Anyone with common sense knows how to dress appropriately for whatever environment he or she works in. I am a casual person by nature but I tend to wear the business dress in my office. I do see some people in my building wearing casually and they look strange there.
Bill:
You're forgetting the most important point—it's "their" business. They are the ones who have put financial resources on the line: who have a whole bunch to lose if the business goes bad: who are providing employment for others. Therefore, they get to make the roles. If that includes a dross code, then that's their right. If you'd like a different dress code—start your own business.
<i> Now match each of the people (61 to 65) to the appropriate statement.
Note: there are two extra statements</i>.
Statements
[A] We shall not be moved.
[B] Money means freedom.
[C] Photos taking are pleasant.
[D] There are people who are so careless about dressing.
[E] Action speaks louder than words.
[F] It is our society that must be blamed.
[G] You should wear appropriately where you are.
