16、ly once. After you hear each question, choose the best answer from the four choices marked A), B), C) and D).As my daughter grew, she was always on the high end of the growth chart. We hoped she would grow into her weight as her brother did; but by age 14 she was diagnosed as morbidly obese. We knew
17、 we had to take action, but she was afraid - afraid of how hard it would be, afraid of making changes in what she ate, afraid that she really couldnt lose weight. I didnt know how to help her, though I knew that I was partially responsible for her dilemma. Ive never had a weight problem and have alw
18、ays indulged my kids and myself with whatever we wanted to eat, including homemade sweets, sodas, and fast food. We visited our family doctor and asked for her help. She made a referral to the only child obesity clinic in our state. It took five months to get the first appointment and the clinic is
19、over two hours from our home. We were still worried when the appointment day finally came, and we arrived without a clue what to expect. Thankfully, we left feeling very relieved and hopeful. The doctor was confident that she will lose the weight, and started us off with a few simple rules. Surprisi
20、ngly, weight loss was not the clinics first goal for my daughter. Stopping the weight gain is our first three-month goal. She will have to go on a weight loss plan later because after puberty she has nearly reached her adult height. If we had started this process a few years ago, she would be mainta
21、ining her weight as she grew. Thats why it is so important to seek professional help for your childs weight problem early. Dont put it off as we did.Questions:1.

24、tanding, students often wish to ask their teacher questions in class. However, many students would rather not ask in class because they may be concerned about being embarrassed or concerned about slowing the class down.For the benefit of everyone in the class, especially for the benefit of those who
25、 ask the questions, students should not hesitate to ask meaningful questions during a lecture or a presentation.Dont be overly concerned about embarrassing yourself in the eyes of the teacher. Throughout the teachers career, the teacher has been asked questions in class probably far more embarrassin
26、g than yours.Furthermore, dont be too sensitive about embarrassing yourself in the eyes of your classmates, especially your friends. In all likelihood, the other students in the class have a question similar to yours, and they may admire you for having the courage to ask in class. Moreover, your que
27、stion may benefit the students who have not thought of it.An instructor may not answer your question immediately. Dont view this as an indication that your question is not important. Your question may be answered by subsequent material presented during that class, or perhaps the instructor is waitin
28、g for a more relevant and appropriate class time to respond to your question. In addition, some instructors set aside brief time periods, throughout their lecture, to deal with questions. Keep in mind that the instructor may choose to discuss your question with you after class, perhaps in private.Bo
29、th the teacher and the students benefit a great deal from students questions during the class. Most teachers welcome and appreciate students questions in class primarily because such questions guide the instructor toward a better presentation and improve lecture delivery.Questions: 1. According to t

What may be the other students response if you ask teacher a question similar to theirs? (A)4. Why doesnt the teacher answer you question immediately? (D)5. Whats the auth
31、ors attitude towards asking questions in class? (B)Task Two Listen to the passage again and then decide whether the following statements are true (T) or false (F).Key:1.F2.F3.T4.F5.TPart D Compound DictationDirections: In this section, you will hear a passage three times. When the passage is read fo
32、r 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 1 to 7 with the exact words you have just heard. For blanks numbered 8 to 10 you are required to fill in the missing information. For
33、 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.“When asked what they (1) learnt from those early stories, peoples (2) responses were, I
34、 learnt about good and bad, or right and wrong, or I learnt about how to make the right decisions,” Dr Roeper said.“The stories we (3) encounter in childhood are important in establishing our feelings about how our lives should be lived. They (4) influence the way we see the world and how we see our
35、selves in the world,” she said.Dr Roepers research suggests that stories play the same (5) role in peoples lives across the different generations, but the way that people (6) access those stories has changed. For the elderly (7) participants, who grew up between the wars, childrens books were scarce
36、 and television didnt exist, so most of the stories that they remembered from their childhood were from storytelling around the dinner table in large family groups. “It was like living in a soap opera. The family stories from their childhood were the same stories that they recalled 50 to 60 years la
37、ter, and (8) the values that they learnt from them had a major impact on their lives,” Dr Roeper said.Radio was important for baby boomers and many more had access to childrens books after World War II. (9) By the time they reached their teenage years, they had established a pattern of reading. “Som
38、e of the people, who grew up watching soaps such as Neighbours and Home and Away, (10) talked about those stories in exactly the same way that the older participants talked about stories told around the dinner table. The medium of delivery had changed but the role of the story and the message had re
39、mained with them.”Unit 2 Childhood (2)Part A Short ConversationsDirections: In this section you will hear 10 short conversations.
