Millions of people are struggling to understand their paychecks or calculate money in shops, campaigners have said. Being bad at maths should no longer be seen as “a badge of honour” or down to genetics, (3) according to National Numeracy, a new organisation which aims to challenge the nation’s negative view of the subject.
Chris Humphries, chairman of the group, said that poor maths skills can affect an individual’s life, leaving them at a higher risk of being excluded from school or out of work. Figures from a government survey, published last year, show that 17 million adults in England have basic math skills that are, at best, the same as an 11-year-old, he said. Speaking at the launch of the National Numeracy, Mr. Humphries said: “That’s a scary figure, because what it means is they often can’t calculate or give change.”
Mike Ellicock, chief executive of National Numeracy, said: “We want to challenge this ‘I can’t do maths’ attitude that is prevalent in the UK”, (4) adding that is vital that all primary school teachers understand key maths concepts, as young children who fail to learn the basics will suffer later on.

D He held a part-time job for over 20 years.
答案解析：
(5) The Dutch king has revealed that for more than two decades he has held down a part-time second job, alongside his royal duties.
King Willem-Alexander of the Netherlands said that he recently ended his role as a regular “guest pilot” after 21 years with a national airline’s fleet of now-outdated aircraft.
As a guest flier, the king worked about twice a month, always as co-pilot. He will now retrain to fly the bigger Boeing 737s as the old planes are being phased out of service. The fifty-year-old father of three and king to 17 million Dutch citizens calls flying a “hobby”. It lets him leave his royal duties on the ground and fully focus on something else.
“You have an aircraft, passengers and crew. You have responsibility for them,” the king said. “You can’t take your problems from the ground into the skies. (6) You can completely change focus and concentrate on something else. That, for me, is the most relaxing part of flying.”
(7) Willem-Alexander said he is rarely recognised by passengers. Very few people pay attention to him as he walks through the airport in his airline uniform and cap.
5. What does the report say about the Dutch king?

16、Question 16 is based on the passage you have just heard.
A Rewarding them for eating vegetables.
B Exposing them to vegetables repeatedly.
C Improving the taste of vegetable dishes for them.
D Explaining the benefits of eating vegetables to them.
答案解析：
All parents know it is difficult to get children to eat their vegetables. Some of them offer rewards or treats for children finishing their share. But researchers have discovered that youngsters who are not praised for trying vegetables are more likely to eat them eventually. (16) The study found that the best way to get children to eat food they do not like is simply to give them repeated exposure to it.
Psychologists from Ghent University in Belgium studied 98 children. They gave them five kinds of vegetables to eat: mushrooms, peas, eggplants, carrots and cabbages. (17) The taste tests revealed that carrots were the least-liked vegetable among youngsters. The children were then given a bowl of boiled carrots and told to choose how much to eat. After eight minutes they were asked to rate the dish as “delicious”, “just OK” or “disgusting”. The trial went on twice a week for a month, with a follow-up taste test after eight weeks.
Children were split into three groups, with one group asked to try the bowl of carrots repeatedly with no further encouragement. The other two groups were given rewards of a toy or verbal praise. (18) After the trial, 81% of children who simply tried the carrots consistently liked them. This is in contrast to 68% for the group given a toy and 75% for the group given verbal praise.

19、Question 19 is based on the passage you have just heard.
A Space exploration has serious consequences.
B India has many space exploration programs.
C There is quite a lot to learn about the moon.
D A lot of garbage has been left on the moon.
答案解析：
(19) One thing about the moon many people don’t know is that it has a lot of garbage on its surface, leftover from human space exploration. But how much garbage exactly have humans left on the moon? It’s hard to be accurate, but the trash likely weighs more than 181,000 kilograms on Earth. Much of it was left by American astronauts, who landed on the lunar surface between 1969 and 1972 during NASA’s Apollo Missions. The other rubbish comes from missions that did not have human crews. These missions were conducted by various space exploring agencies, including those from the US, Russia, Japan, India and Europe. Many of the older pieces are equipment sent to learn about the moon. The equipment stayed there after its mission ended. The moon is also home to lunar orbiters that mapped the moon before they crashed into its surface, adding to the garbage heap. The objects left by the Apollo astronauts included the equipment that was no longer needed. (20) Bringing back unneeded equipment would have used up precious resources such as fuel. But, as the saying goes, “one person’s trash is another’s treasure”, (21) researchers can study the garbage left on the moon to see how its materials weathered the radiation and vacuum of space overtime. Moreover, some of the objects on the moon are still being used, including a laser-range reflector left by the Apollo 11 crew.
19. What does the passage say maybe unknown to many people?
解析：录音开头指出，很多人不知道月球表面有很多垃圾。D选项中A lot of garbage为原词复现，为正确答案。
20、Question 20 is based on the passage you have just heard.

22、Question 22 is based on the passage you have just heard.
A It is likely to remain a means of business communication.
B It is likely to be a competitor of various messaging apps.
C It will gradually be replaced by social media.
D It will have to be governed by specific rules.
答案解析：
In my line of work, I receive a lot of e-mails. I also send a lot of e-mails. Though social media and messaging apps have taken over some of the roles from e-mail as a form of communication, (22) e-mail is likely to retain an important role for business communication in the future. Surprisingly, though, a lot of companies and organizations lack formal guidelines for e-mailing. As most of you will soon be entering the workforce, I would like to share with you my own rules for e-mailing.
(23) If someone sends you an e-mail, reply to them, acknowledging the email. A simple “thank you” lets the sender know that their e-mail has arrived safely, that it has not been lost among what could be fifty other emails that have arrived in your e-mail inbox that day. (24) It is not necessary to reply to a mass email sent to numerous recipients. These emails are often informative rather than personalized correspondence requiring a response or action. (23) But it’s common politeness to respond to a personal message, preferably within 24 hours of receiving it.
It’s also important to use proper English. Just because e-mails are a quick form of communication doesn’t mean e-mails, especially business e-mails, should be written using informal, shortened forms of words. Think of e-mail as a letter. Spelling, grammar and punctuation should not be overlooked. (25) And never use capitals to emphasize a word or words in an e-mail. It’s the same as yelling.
22. What does the passage say about e-mail?
解析：录音开头指出，邮件在未来的商务交流中可能仍将扮演重要的角色，故A选项为正确答案。

26. remedies
解析：名词辨析题。空格前为形容词，空格处应填入名词，作后面定语从句I tried的宾语，根据前面的how many，可知此处应该填入名词复数。结合后半句“咳嗽始终不好”可知，此处应该是说“尝试了多种治疗方式”，故选remedies。
27. inconvenience
解析：动词辨析题。空格前为倒装结构，使用了助动词did，故空格处应该填入动词原形作谓语。前文指出感冒引发的咳嗽一直不见好转，此处指出，这对我的教学和整个生活______。根据常识可知，生病会给生活“带来不便”，故选inconvenience。
28. recommended
解析：动词辨析题。空格前为并列连词and，空格后核心词为名词，故空处应该填入动词过去式与came up to并列。显然scared不能和“中医”搭配，且结合上下文可推断，学生找作者是为了推荐治疗咳嗽的方式，故选recommended。
29. hesitant
解析：形容词辨析题。空格前为系动词was，故空格处应该填入形容词，作表语。空后的句子表示“我对中医知之甚少且从未尝试过”，由此可推断作者对中医的态度应该是不确定、犹豫的，故选hesitant。

34. sink
解析：动词辨析题。空格前为不定式标志词to，故空处应该填入动词原形。而后面宾语前有介词into，可知此处应该填入不及物动词，只有sink和tremble两个备选项满足条件。tremble不和into搭配，且与relaxation（放松）意义相悖，故选sink。sink into表示“陷入”。
35. lessen
解析：动词辨析题。空格前为不定式标志词to，故空处应该填入动词原形。本句中有转折词but，故前后语义相反。前半句指出作者没有感到好转，后半句则应该是表示好转，且最后一句指出，几周内咳嗽完全好了，可见空处应该是表示病情减轻，故选lessen。
