What’s the minimum retirement age in Francebefore Sarkozy’s plans?2. According to the opponents,whose interest should be protected?Questions 3 and 4 will be based on the following news item.Some American schools pay teachers moreif their students improve on tests.Now, there is a growing movement to pay the students,in some cases,even just for coming to class.Schools that pay students can be foundin more than one-fourth of the fifty states.Other schools pay students with food or other rewards.Last year,the city schools in Coshocton, Ohio, launched a programme.They wanted to seeif paying elementary school students as much as one hundred dollarswould help in passing state exams.Now, Eric Bettinger of Case Western Reserve Universityhas reported mixed results.Math scores increased,but only while students were able to get paid.And there was no evidence of higher scores in reading,social studies and science.Officials will decide later this year whether to continue the programme.3. What should American students do to get paid from schools?4. What’s the result of the programme to pay students?Questions 5 to 7 will be based on the following news item.As struggling airlines add extra-luggage feesand travelers worry about growing security restrictions,services like Luggage Forward and Luggage Free have emergedas ways to avoid the troubles of checking bags.While typically seen as a luxury,more Americans are using such options for run-of-the-mill trips.The idea behind the luggage delivery servicesis to make traveling as headache-free as possible.Customers load up their suitcases as usual,with no special packaging needed.Shipping slips for luggage are mailed to them.A pickup time is scheduled,usually for a two-hour window.If the bags are being sent to a hotel,the hotel worker will typically call customersto let them know their belongings have arrived.Rates vary depending on the weight,distance and speed of the delivery.The new luggage delivery services promiseto provide greater convenience by helping customers clear customs,track packages and pick up luggage at home.Still, the price can add up for a big order.But compared to the mess it would’ve caused at the airport,the price was worth it, said Kolodny,a 45-year-old resident of Great Neck, New York.5. What is the main idea of the news report?6. How long can luggage be preserved in the new delivery services?7. What is the major drawback to the new luggage delivery services?Section BDirections: In this section,you will hear two long conversations.At the end of each conversation,you will hear four questions.Both the conversation and the questionswill be spoken only once.After you hear a question,you must choose the best answerfrom the four choices marked A), B), C) and D).Then mark the corresponding letter on Answer Sheet 1with a single line through the centre.Conversation OneW: Excuse me, Dr. Tyler, your secretary said I should come right in.M: Please do, Jenny.

That is rather a lot.Can you handle the work?W: I think so.

What is the key to a happy marriage according to the study?17. How many people are investigated in the study?18. Which is the belief of the researchers?Passage TwoDo you have a tough math test coming up?Then listen to some classical piano music just before the test.You might end up with a higher score.Researchers at a university in California conducted an experiment.They asked a group of college students to listen to some piano musicby a famous 18th century composer before taking a math test.They were surprised to find that the students' scores jumped 8 to 9 points.The music seems to excite nerve activities in the brainsimilar to the activity that occurswhen a person is figuring out a math problem.However, the scientists warn thatbefore you get too excited about applying this method to your math test,you should rememberthat brain-exciting effects last only 10 to 15 minutes.Would rock music work as well as the piano music did?No, the scientists say. In fact,the less complex music might even interferewith the brain's reasoning ability.Questions 19 to 21 are based on the passage you have just heard.19. What is this passage mainly about?20. Why can classical music play a positive role in problem solving?21. What is one of the findings of the research?Passage Three"Where is the University?" is the questionmany visitors to Cambridge ask,but no one could point them in any one directionbecause there is no campus.The university consists of 31 self-governing colleges.It has lecture halls, libraries, laboratories,museums and offices throughout the city.Individual colleges choose their own students,who have to meet the minimum entrance requirementsset by the university.Undergraduates usually live and study in their colleges,where they are taught in very small groups.Lectures and laboratory and practical work are organizedby the university and held in university buildings.There are over 10,000 undergraduates and 3,500 postgraduates.About 40 percent of them are womenand some 8 percent from overseas.As well as teaching, research is of major importance.Since the beginning of the 20th century,more than 60 university members have won Nobel Prizes.The university has a huge number of buildingsfor teaching and research.It has more than 60 specialized subject libraries,as well as the University Library,which, as a copyright library,is entitled to a copy of every book published in Britain.Examinations are set and degrees are awarded by the university.It allowed women to take the university exams in 1881,but it was not until 1948 that they were awarded degrees.Questions 22 to 25 are based on the passage you have just heard.22. Why is it difficult for visitors to locate Cambridge University?23. What does the passage tell us about the colleges of Cambridge University?24.
