Why did you sales people accept them?M: We have to accept them; otherwise, we dont get the contracts.W: Well, lets get on to the Buying Department. I only heard about the delay yesterday because we kept the production line clear to handle these special sheets. Its a dreadful nuisance.M: It will be more than a nuisance if we dont meet on delivery date. It will cost us a lot of money.W: Keep calm, John. We can perhaps claim compensation from the steel suppliers for failure to deliver on time.

You are an economist, so how does it influence your work?W: Well, in several ways. I am responsible for financial development programs in many parts of the world, so forecasting long range trends and making predictions on the basis of present evidence is what I do. Chaos theory was developed by scientists, trying to explain the movement of the planets and the changes in environmental conditions. Both of these things are also about making long-term predictions on the basis of present evidence.M: Are many economists involved in this field?W: An increasing number. In the1990s, many economists began to look at chaos theory as a way of providing models for forecasting.M: What kind of models are we talking about here?W: Well, thats a good question, because the basic idea of chaos theory is that there arent any models as suchthere arent guaranteed forms, but rather patterns of change in development.M: Doesnt that mean that forecasting is impossible?W: No, but it certainly makes it more of a challenge.Mandelbrot, who did the experiment with stock exchanges prices, for example, noted that although the outcomes were variable, there were in fact certain constancy. What we have to do is make sure we know what these are and take into account all the possible variables.M: But do economics and finance work in the same way as weather conditions or the movement of planets?W: Well, no, of course not. There are certain underlying similarities. But we have to leave them for the other time.Questions 23 to 25 are based on the conversation you have just heard.23. What is the womans profession?D解析：对话开头男士问女士，作为一名经济学家，混沌理论对她的工作有什么影响，由此可知女士是一位经济学家。24. What was chaos theory supposed to do when it was first formulated?B解析：对话中，女士对混沌理论进行了解释，说科学家们在提出这一理论是为了解释行星的运行轨迹和环境变化，由此可知混沌理论最初是为了解释某些自然现象产生的。25. What are the speakers mainly talking about?C解析：从对话的整体内容看，两人始终围绕着混沌理论的内容和应用来展开对话，所以选C。听力短文原文Passage OnePeople write to ask me if theres correlation between academic intelligence and emotional intelligence. My answer is no. You can have a high IQ and a high EQ, which, of course, is a winning combination, or be high in one and low in the other. The best study was done at Bell Labs in New Jersey, a very high IQ place. They do research into development for the communications industry. In a division of electronic engineers, who were designing equipment so advanced that they work in teams of up to 150, co-workers and managers were asked to nominate the standouts the stars in productivity and effectiveness. They came up with 10 or 15 names, and that group of stars was compared with everyone else. It turned out there was no difference in IQ, no difference in academic qualifications, no difference in years on the job. The only difference was emotional intelligence. The stars were people who knew how to get along, who knew how to motivate themselves, usually the kind of people you like to hang out with. When these people ran up against a technical problem, to which theyd have to turn to someone else for an answer, theyd e-mail and get an answer right away, because they built up a network of people before they needed them. The other people would e-mail and wait up to two weeks for an answer. So you can see how being good in the interpersonal realm actually was a direct benefit, even for effectively pursuing a technical task.Questions 26 to 28 are based on the passage you have just heard.26. What does the speaker say about Bell Labs?D解析：短文中提到，贝尔实验室进行的研究很好的阐释了情商与智商的关系，在提到位于新泽西的贝尔实验室时，讲话者说这是一个高智商的地方，所以选D.27. What characterizes the stars nominated at Bell Labs?B解析：短文中提到，在电子工程师部门，被提名的明星远观和普通员工相比，智商没有明显差别，差别体现在情商上。28. What does the speaker say contributes to effectively pursuing a technical task?A解析：短文最后提到，即便是对于高效低完成一项技术任务来说，拥有好的人际关系也会使人直接受益，由此可知良好的人际关系会对人们有效地完成一项技术任务有所帮助。Passage TwoJs (Biography of John Muir)John Muirs own writings to bring readers a life story of this remarkable man who did so much to raise Americans awareness of environmental issues. As Americas first environmentalist, John Muir lived his life forever daring to undertake new adventures. He spent most of his days outdoors and had deep love for the wild lands. In the book, we meet John Muir as a youth fearlessly climbing the roof of his house. He captures birds only to let them go when he realizes the cruelty involved. He becomes an inventor and sells his inventions in order to attend the university. As a young man, he began walking over tens of thousands of miles during his lifetime, through the south to Florida, the west to California and north to Alaska, where readers are taken a long and particularly hair-raising adventure on a large mass of floating ice. Muirs learning in observation throughout his life led him to devote his last years to preserving the natural environment. His writing and speaking raised the awareness of the importance of conservation and helped bring about our national park system. Readers will feel they know John Muir after reading his story and may catch his passion for preserving the riches of our land. The others portrayal of Muirs life is a testimony to what it means to be lifelong learners and to use that learning to inform and bring about change.Questions 29 to 31 are based on the passage you have just heard.29. What kind of book is the speaker introducing?D解析：短文一开头，讲话者就说这本书是一本自传，所以答案选择D。30. What do we learn about John Muir when he was young?B解析：短文开始提到了John一生都在冒险，在短文中间部分提到年轻时他就开始周游世界各地，在他的传记中他将读者带到了毛骨悚然的冒险世界，所以答案选择B.31. What did John Muir intend to do through writing and speaking?C解析：短文中提到，John的文章和演讲唤起了公众对环保的重要性认知，对国家公园体系建立起到了推动作用，所以选C。Passage ThreeDisaster movies often portray catastrophes that destroy, or at least threaten to destroy earths entire population. In fact, a virus emerged in the 1970s that couldve been just that fatal. Named after a river that passes through the Congo, the Ebola virus originally manifested itself in the interior of Africa in 1976. Two strains of the disease, with almost identical symptoms, affected humansEbola-Zaire and Ebola-Sudan. The Sudan version was deadly enough, killing 50% of those it infected. However, Zaire, with its 90% mortality rate, was even worse. The origins, though not the cause of Ebola-Sudan, can be traced back to a single individual in a Sudanese town. Ebola-Zaire seemed to erupt in over 50 villages simultaneously. Both strains quickly invaded local hospitals when needle sharing and other unhealthy practices ensured the rapid spreading of the infection by bringing people into contact with contaminated body fluids. If the virus had been capable of spreading through the air, or if one infected person had unknowingly entered a large population center, Ebola might have become a worldwide epidemic. However, soon after these fierce outbreaks, the virus died out, at least temporarily. Ebola was so deadly and killed so quickly that within a short period of time, there was no one around to infect. Hospital workers in at least one case deserted their workplace in panic, thus halting the administering of potentially unclean disease spreading injections, but Ebola has not disappeared. Wi
