Trackers, which are ongoing projects that look at trends or customer satisfaction over a long period of time. The only problem with trackers is that it takes up a lot of your time. But you do build up a good relationship with the client. I also do a couple of ad-hoc jobs which are much shorter projects.M: What exactly do you mean by ad-hoc jobs?W: Its basically when companies need quick answers to their questions about their consumers habits. They just ask for one questionnaire to be sent out for example, so the time you spend on an ad-hoc project tends to be fairly short.M: Which do you prefer, trackers or ad-hoc?W: I like doing both and in fact I need to do both at the same time to keep me from going crazy. I need the variety.M: Can you just explain what process you go through with a new client?W: Well, together we decide on the methodology and the objectives of the research. I then design a questionnaire.Once the interviewers have been briefed, I send the client a schedule and then they get back to me with deadlines. Once the final charts and tables are ready, I have to check them and organize a presentation.M: Hmm, one last question, what do you like and dislike about your job?W: As I said, variety is important and as for what I dont like, it has to be the checking of charts and tables.Questions 1 to 4 are based on the conversation you have just heard.1. What position does the woman hold in the company?2. What does the woman specialize in at the moment?3. What does the woman say about trackers?4.

Now Fred, you went to university in Canada?M: Yeah, thats right.W: OK, and you have very strong views about universities in Canada. Could you please explain?M: Well, we dont have private universities in Canada. Theyre all public. All the universities are owned by the government, so there is the Ministry of Education in charge of creating the curriculum for the universities and so there is not much room for flexibility. Since its a government operated institution, things dont move very fast. If you want something to be done, then their staff do not have so much incentive to help you because hes a worker for the government. So I dont think its very efficient. However, there are certain advantages of public universities, such as the fees being free. You dont have to pay for your education. But the system isnt efficient, and it does not work that well.W: Yeah, I can see your point, but in the United States we have many private universities, and I think they are large bureaucracies also. Maybe people dont act that much differently, because its the same thing working for a private university. They get paid for their job. I dont know if theyre that much more motivated to help people. Also, we have a problem in the United States that usually only wealthy kids go to the best schools and its kind of a problem actually.M: I agree with you. I think its a problem because youre not giving equal access to education to everybody. Its not easy, but having only public universities also might not be the best solution. Perhaps we can learn from Japan where they have a system of private and public universities. Now, in Japan, public universities are considered to be the best.W: Right. Its the exact opposite in the United States.M: So, as you see, its very hard to say which one is better.W: Right, a good point.Questions 5 to 8 are based on the conversation you have just heard.5. What does the woman want Frederick to talk about?6. What does the man say about the curriculum in Canadian universities?7. On what point do the speakers agree?8. What point does the man make at the end of the conversation?试题解析【话题分类】教育【对话大意】本对话与教育有关，男士讲述了自己对加拿大教育的一些看法。女士也提出一些自己对教育的看法和意见。5. 【考核技能】语义理解A) 【答案解析】从对话中的 and you have very strong views about universities in Canada. Could you please explain可知，女士认为男士对加拿大的大学有明确的看法，并让其解释。由此可知她让 Frederick 讲述对大学的看法。A 项是原文的同义转述。6. 【考核技能】语义理解B) 【答案解析】男士提到 All the universities are owned by the government, so there is the Ministry of Education in charge of creating the curriculum for the universities and so there is not much room for flexibility（所有的大学受政府的管理， 因此， 教育部负责设置学校的课程， 因此灵活性很小） 。由此可知 B 项是原文的同义转述。7. 【考核技能】观点支持C) 【答案解析】男士提到 I agree with you. I think its a problem because youre not giving equal access to education to everybody（我认为这是个问题，因为每个人受教育的机会并非平等） 。由此可知，两个说话人就“每个人应得到平等的高等教育机会”一问题达成共识。C 项是原文的同义转述。8. 【考核技能】得出结论C) 【答案解析】在对话最后，男士提到 its very hard to say which one is better（很难说哪个更好） 。这是她概括得出的结论，C 项是原文的同义转述。由此可知 C 正确。Section BPassage One【话题预测】从选项中的 wages，economic recovery，raise，unemployed 可推测出本篇文章与劳工和工资有关。【正确答案】911 B A C听力原文A recent International Labor Organization report says the deterioration of real wages around the world calls into question the true extent of an economic recovery, especially if government rescue packages are phased out too early. The report warns the picture on wages is likely to get worse this year, despite indications of an economic rebound. Patrick Belser, an International Labor Organization specialist, says declining wage rates are linked to the levels of unemployment. “The quite dramatic unemployment figures, which we now see in some of the countries, strongly suggest that there will be greater pressure on wages in the future as more people will be unemployed, more people will be looking for jobs and the pressure on employers to raise wages to attract workers will decline. So, we expect that the second part of the year will not be very good in terms of wage growth.” The report finds more than a quarter of the countries experienced flat or falling monthly wages in real terms. They include the United States, Austria, Costa Rica, South Africa and Germany. International Labor Organization economists say some nations have come up with policies to lessen the impact of lower wages during the economic crisis. An example of these is work sharing with government subsidies. Under this scheme, the number of individual working hours is reduced in an effort to avoid layoffs. For this scheme to work, the government must provide wage subsidies to compensate for lost pay due to the shorter hours. Questions 9 to 11 are based on the passage you have just heard.9. What is the International Labor Organizations report mainly about?10. According to an International Labor Organization specialist, how will employers feel if there are more people lo
