　　Conversation 1

　　Man: It's my last day at work tomorrow.I'll start my new job in 2 weeks. My human resources

　　manager wants to conduct an interview with me before I leave[Ql].

　　Woman: Ah, an exit interview. Are you looking forward to it?

　　Man: I'm not sure how I feel about it. I resigned because I've been unhappy at that company for a long time, but I'm not sure if I should tell them how I really feel.

　　Woman: To my way of thinking, there are two main potential benefits that come from unleashing and agitated stream of truth during an exit interview. The first is release. Unburdening yourself of frustration, and perhaps even anger to someone who isn't a friend or close colleague can be wonderfully free.

　　Man: Let me guess. The second Is thBt the criticism will, theoretically, help the organization

　　I'm leaving to improve, making sure employees of the future are less likely to encounter what I did?

　　Woman: That's right. But the problem with the company improvement part is that very often it doesn't happen. An exit interview is supposed to be private, but often isn't. In mv company, the information Rained from these interviews is often not confidential. The information is used as dirt against another manager, or can be traded amonR senior managers[Q2].

　　Man: Now you've got me rethinking what I'll disclose in the interview. There is always a chance that it could affect my reputation and my ability t。network in the industry[Q3|. It is a pretty small industry after all.

　　Woman: Anything you initially gained from the instant satisfaction of telling it like it is, you

　　might lose down the track by injuring your future career prospects.

　　Man: Right. Perhaps I would be better Hettinu things off my chest by HoinR to one of those rate-your-employer websites[Q41].

　　Woman: You could. And don't d。the interview at all[Q4]. Exit interviews are not mandatory.

　　QI: What do we learn about the man from the conversation?

　　Q2: What does the woman think of the information gained from an exit interview?

　　Q3: Why docs the man want to rethink what he will say in the coming exit interview?

　　Q4: What does the man think he had better do?

　　Man: Today, I'm talking to the renowned botanist, Jane Foster.

　　Woman: Thank you for inviting me to join you on the show, Henry.

　　Man: Recently, Jane, you've become quite a celebrity, since the release of your latest documentary[Q5]. Can you tell us a little about it?

　　Woman: Well, it follows my expedition to study the vegetation indigenous to the rain forest in equatorial areas of southeast Asia.

　　Man: You certainly get to travel to some very exotic locations.

　　Woman: It was far from glamorous, to be honest. The area we visited was accessible 0nly by canoe and the livinx conditions in the hut were primitive to sav the least. There was no electricity. Our water suppZ was a nearby stream[Q6].

　　Man: How were the weather conditions while you were there?

　　Woman: The weather was not conducive to work at all, since the humidity was almost unbearable. At midday, we stayed in the hut and did nothing. It was too humid to either work or sleep[Q6],

　　Man: How long did your team spend in the jungle?

　　Woman: Originally, we planned to be there for a month. But in the end, we stayed for only 2 weeks.

　　Man: Why did you cut the expedition short?

　　Woman: Halfway through the trip, we received news that e hurricane was approaching. We had to evacuate on very short notice[Q7].

　　Man: That sounds like a fascinating anecdote.

　　Woman: It was frightening. The fastest evacuation route was

　　river Rapids. We had to

　　navigate them carrying all of our equipmenj)

　　Man: So overall was the journey unsuccessful [Q8]?

　　Woman: Absolutely not[Q8]. We gathered a massive amount of data about the local plantlife.

　　Man: Why do you put up with such adverse conditions?

　　Woman: Botany is an obsession for me. Many of the destinations I visit have a stunning scenery. I get to meet a variety of people from all over the world.

　　Man: So where will your next destination be?

　　Woman: I haven't decided yet.

　　Man: Then we can leave it for another vacation. Thanks.

　　Q5: What does the man want Jane Foster to talk about?

　　Q6: Why does the woman describe her experience as far fro

　　Q7: Why did the woman and those who went with her end their trip halfway?

　　Q8: What does the woman think of the journey?

　　Passage one

　　Scientists often use specialized jargon terms while communicating with laymen. Most

　　of them don't realize the harmful effects of this practice. (9) In a new study, people exposed

　　es and surgical robots. Later said they were less interesting in science than others who read about the same topics，but without the use of specialized terms. They also felt less informed about science and less qualified to discuss science topics. it's note worthy that it made no diffence if the jargon terms were defined in the next.Even when the terms were defined readers still felt the same lack of engagement as readers who read jargon that wasn't explained.

　　The problem is that the mere presence of jargon sendsa discouraging message to readers.

　　Hillary Schulman, the author of the study, asserts that specialized words are a signal. Jargon tells people that the message isn't for them. Therefs an even darker side to how people react tojargon. In another study, researchers found thst reading scientific articles containing jargon led people to doubt the actual science. They found the opposite, when a text is easier to read. Then. People are more persuaded. (10) Thus, it's important to communicate clearly when talking about complex science subjects. This is especially true with issues related to public health; like the safety of new medications and the benefits of vaccines. Schulman concedes that the use of jargon is appropriate with scientific audiences. But scientists who want to communicate with the general public need to modify their language. They need to eliminate iarRon. (11)

　　Questions nine to eleven are based on the passage you have just heard.

　　Question 9: What does the passage say about the use of jargon terms by experts? (开头)

　　Question 10: What do researchers find about people reading scientific articles containing jargon terms?(出现了 in another study,跟研究相关)

　　Question 11: What does Schulman suggest scientists do when communicating with the general public?(答案山现在了转折词but之后)

　　话题：科学文章中术语的实用不利于读者

　　passage two

　　at the beginning of the twentieth century on the gulf coast in the us state of texas，there

　　was a hill where gas leakage was so noticeable that schoolboys would sometimes set the hill on fire.

　　Patio Higgins, a disreputable local businessman, became convinced that there was oil below the Nassv hill. (12) Oil wells weren't drilled back then. They were essentially dug. The sand under the hill defeated several attempts by HiRgins' workers to make a proper hole. (13) Higgins had forecast oil at 1000 feet, a totally made-up figure. Higgins subsequently hired a mining engineer, captain Anthony Lucas. After encounterinc several setbacks, captain Lucas decided to use a drill, and his innovations created the modern oil drilling industry. In January 1901, at 1020 feet, almost precisely the depth predicted by Higgins Wild Gas, the well-roared and suddenly ejected mud and six tons of drilling pipe out of the ground, terrifying those

　　present. (14) For the next nine days until the well was capped, the well poured out more oil than all the wells In America combined.

　　In those days, Texas was almost entirely rural, with no large cities and practically no industry. Cotton and beef were the foundation of the economy. HiGGinS' well changed that. The boom made some prospectors millionaires, but the sudden surplus of petroleum was not entirely a blessing for Taxes. In the 1930s, prices crashed to the point that in some parts of the country, oil was cheaper than water. (15) That would become a familiar pattern of the boom or bust Texas economy.

　　Question 12: What did Texas businessmen Patio Higgins believe? (人名+观点)

　　Question 13: What prevented Higgins' workers from digging a proper hole to get the oil?

　　Question 14: What does the passage say abot captain lucas“drilling method?

　　Question 15：what do we learn about texas”s oil industry boom?(答案出现在but后面)

　　Most peoHe dislike their jobs. It's an astonishing： but statistical fact, (Q16)a primary cause of employed dissatisfaction, according to fresh researches that many believe they have terrible managers. Few describe their managers as malicious or manipulative, though, while those types certainly exist, they are minority. The majority of managers seemingly just don't know any better. They're often emulating bad managers they've had in the past, is likely they've never read a management book or attended a management course. They might not have even reflected on what good management looks like and how it would influence their own management style.The researchers interviewed employees about their managers.Beginning with a question about the worst manager they had ever had. From this，the researchers came up with four main causes of why some managers are perceived as being simply awful at theirjobs.[Q 17] The first cause was company culture which was seen by employees as enablingpoor management practices.It was specifically stressful work environments， minimal training，and a lack of account abi ity that were found to be the most blameworthy.Often a managersuperiors can effectively encourage a manager's distasteful behavior when they fail todiscipline the persons wrong doings.Such workplaces are sometimes described as toxic.[Q 17] The second cause was attributed to the managers characteristics：those deemed to bemost destructive were odd people，those without drive，those allow personal problems intothe workplace， and those with an unpleasant temperament or personality in general.[Q 17] The third cause of poor management was associated with their deficiency ofgua lications.Not so much the form of variety one obtains from a university.But the informalvariety that comes from credible work experience and professional accomplishments.[Q 17] The fourth course concerned managers who've been promoted for reasons other thanpotential.One reason in particular why these people had been promoted was that they hadbeen around the longest.It was n't their skillset， or other merits that got them the job， it wastheir tenure.A point worth making is that the study[Q 18] was based only on the perspectiveof an employee's.The researchers didn'task senior leaders what they thought of their front-line managers.It'squ lte possible， their content with how the individuals they promoted arenow performing.Merrily ignorant of the damage they're actually causing Which mightexplain why， as the researchers conclude， those same middle managers are usually unawarethat they area bad manager.

　　With the use of driver-less vehicles seemingly inevitable， [Q 19] mining companies in the vast Australian desert state of Western Austral la are definttely taking the lead.Iron ore is a keyingredient in steel-making.The mining companies here produce almost 300 mllion tons of iron or a year.The 240 giant autonomous trucks in use， in the Western Australian mines，can weigh400 tons，fully loaded. And travel at speeds of up to sixty kilometers per hour.They are a technological leap,transporting iron ore along routes which run for hundreds of kilometers from mines to their destinations.Here when the truck arrives at its destination，staff in the operation center direct it precisely where to unload.Vast quantities of iron oreare then transported by autonomous trains to ocean ports. Advocates argue these automated vehicles wll change mining forever.It may only be five years before the use ofautomation technology leads to a fully robotic mine.A range of factors has pushed Western Australia's desert region to the lead of this automation revolution.These include the hugesze of the minds，the scale of equipment and there petive nature of some of the work.Thenthere's the area's remoteness， at 502，000 square kilometers.It can sometimes make recrulting staff a chalenge.Another consideration is the risks when humans interact with large machinery . There are also the fInancial Imperatives . The ongoing push by the miningcarp or a ions to be more productive and more efficient is another powerful driver In embracing automation technology . The concept of a fully autonomous mind is abit of amisleading term however. This is because the more technology is put into the field ，the more people are needed to deploy ，maintain and Improve It.[Q 20] The automation and digItization of the industry is creating a need for different jobs. These include data scientists andengineers in automation and artficial intelligence . The mining companies claim automation and robotics present opportunities to make mining more sustainable and safer. Employees wil be offered a career that is even more fulifling and more rewarding .[Q 21] Workers'union have accepted the inevitability of the introduction of new technology .But they stll have reservations about the rise of automaton teehtoloby.[Q 21] Their main concern is the potential impact on remote communites As automation spreads further ，the question is how these remote communities wll survive when the old jobs are eliminated? And this may wel prove to be the most significant Impact of robotic technology in many places around the

　　world .

　　According to official statistics ， [Q 22] Thailand's annual road death rate is almost double the global average. Thai people know that their roads are dangerous, but they don't know this could easily be changed. Globally, road accidents kill more people every year than any infectious disease. Researchers at the institute for health metrics and evaluation in America put the death toll in 2017 at 1.24 million. According to the institute, [Q23]the overall number of deaths has been more or less static since the turn of the century. But that disguises a lot of changes in individual countries. In many poor countries, road accidents are killing more people than ever before. Those countries have swelling, young populations are fast-growing fleet of cars and motorbikes and a limited supply of surgeons. It is impossible to know for sure, because official statistics are so inadequate. But deaths are thought to have risen by 40% since 1990 in many low income countries. In many rich countries, by contrast, roads are becoming even safer. In Estonia and Ireland, for example, the number of deaths has fallen by about two thirds since the late1990s. [24]But the most important and intriguing changes are taking place in middle income countries, which contain most of the world's people. And have some of the most dangerous roads. According to researchers in China and South Africa, traffic deaths have been falling since 2000. and in India since 2012, and the Philippines reached its peak four years ago. The question is whether Thailand can soon follow suit. Rob Mckinney, head of the International Road Assessment Program, says that all countries tend to go through three phases. They begin with poor, slow roads. In the second phase, as they grow wealthier, they pave the roads, allowing traffic to move faster and pushing up the death rate.

　　Lastly, in the third phase, countries act to make their roads safer. The trick, then, is to reach the third stage sooner by focusing earlier and more closely on fatal accidents. How to do that?

　　[Q25]The solution lies not just in better infrastructure, but in better social incentives. Safe driving habits are practices which people know they should follow that often don't.

　　Dangerous driving is not a fixed cultural trait, as some imagine, People respond to incentives such as traffic laws that are actually enforced.

　　话题：发展中国家的道路安全问题

　　Question22：What does the speakers say about traffic accidents in Thailand?

　　Question 23: What do we learn from an American institutes statistics regarding road deaths?

　　Question 24: What is said about middle income countries?

　　Question 25: What else could be done to reduce fatal road accidents in addition to safer roads?
