大学英语泛听教程1(全新版) 节选
《大学英语泛听教程》自2000年问世以来,受到广大师生和英语学习者的青睐,先后
被全国百余所高校选用。该教材编写的初意图是为校园英语电台提供广播资源,内容上
注重趣味性和实用性。由于教材内容和形式的鲜明特点,许多高校还将其用作非英语专业
本科生及研究生的听力主干教材。
随着经济全球化进程的加快,社会各方面对大学生的英语应用能力提出了更高的要
求。信息与通讯技术(ICT)的迅猛发展,为现代语言学习者学习机会的大化奠定了坚
实的基础。教育部高等教育司2007年7月颁布的《大学英语课程教学要求》规定: “大学
英语的教学目标是培养学生的英语综合应用能力,特别是听说能力,使他们在今后工作和
社会交往中能用英语有效地进行口头和书面的信息交流,同时增强其自主学习能力,提高
综合文化素养,以适应我国社会发展和国际交流的需要。”教材作为教学改革的重要方面
和教学思想的重要载体,理应有其新的功能。
基于大学英语学习者对教材的新需求和《大学英语课程教学要求》赋予教材的新使
命,我们启动了《大学英语泛听教程(全新版)》的编写项目。该教材于2006年被列入普
通高等教育“十一五”国家级规划教材,由河北科技大学、四川大学、华中科技大学等高
校的多位英语教学专家和资深教师经过广泛地调研论证及精心地设计,共同编写完成。

LIVE INPUT
I. Listen and Comprehend
College Entrance Exams in the U.S.
American colleges and universities consider a number of things about a student who wants
to be admitted. Experts on the subject say the most important thing is the student’s high school
record. Admissions officers look not only at the grades that the student has earned. They also
look at the level of difficulty of the classes.
A student’s interests and activities may also play a part in getting accepted. But in most
cases another consideration is how well the student did on college entrance exams. This week in
our Foreign Student Series, we discuss two of these tests: the SAT and the ACT. Most American
schools accept either one.
The SAT measures reasoning skills in mathematics and language. Students have almost four
hours to complete the SAT. The newest part is an essay. Students have twenty-five minutes to
write an answer to a question.
The SAT costs forty-one dollars and fifty cents. The international processing charge is twen-
ty-two dollars more. And test-takers in India and Pakistan must also pay a twenty-one dollar and
fifty cent security charge. ‘
Students may also need to take SAT subject tests in areas like history, science and foreign
language. Subject tests cost eighteen dollars each. The web site for the SAT is collegeboard.com.
The ACT is an achievement test. It is designed to measure what a student has learned in
school. Students are tested in mathematics, English, reading and science. A writing test is offered
but not required. Without it, the ACT takes about three hours to complete. The essay part adds
thirty minutes.
The ACT costs forty-nine dollars to take outside the United States. The writing test costs
an additional fourteen dollars. The ACT web site is act.org.
Recent Chinese news reports suggested that ACT testing would be expanded in China
next year. But an ACT spokesman denies those reports, lie tells us they were based on a
misunderstanding. He says there are no plans to increase the number of testing centers in
China. Ten centers there offer the ACT, but students must first take training classes at those cen-
ters.
The only place in China where the SAT is offered for Chinese students is in Hong Kong. In-
ternational students living in China have more choices.
And that’s the VOA Special English Education Report, written by Nancy Steinbach. I’m
Doug Johnson.

LEISURE TIME
"Listen, boys and girls," said the teacher to the class~ "tomorrow morning we’ll have an open-
paper examination. You can take anything helpful to the classroom with you — books, dic-
tionaries and so on."
No sooner had the teacher stopped speaking than Bob jumped up happily from his seat.
"Wonderful!" he cried. "Then I’m going to bring my father with me!"
Answer: He is going to bring his father with him.
2. Once in a physics examination, Mark finished the first question very soon, while his class-
mates were still thinking about it.
The question was.’ When it thunders, why do we see the lightning first, then hear the thunder
roar?
Mark’s answer: Because our eyes are in front of our ears.
Answer: Because our eyes are in front 0four ears.
3. The grandson gave his report card volume to the grandpa.
"Alas, when I was a student, my history score was always 100, but you scored just 90," the
grandpa said.
The grandson felt this was very unfair, "The history was shorter when grandpa studied!"
Answer: Because he thought the history was shorter when his grandpa studied.
