一、听力练习 1. A. To defend Africa against sandstorm. B. To restore damaged land across areas south of the Sahara. C. To protect natural recourses. D. To improve living standard by selling fruits. 2. A. Being drought resistant. B. Providing nutrients. C. Providing a way to make money. D. Requiring a lot of rainfall. 二、听力文本 Many areas of North Africa have seen a sharp decrease in rainfall over the last 50 years. Some experts say the lack of rainfall will worsen in the future. In Tunisia, fresh groundwater supplies are decreasing quickly. About two-thirds of the land is threatened by a lack of rain and loss of trees. A report by the Netherlands Foreign Ministry from 2018 says that the effects of climate change may slow Tunisia's growth in its two main industries - tourism and agriculture. Tunisian officials plan to cut the amount of carbon dioxide the country produces to 41 percent of levels measured in 2010 by the 2030s. Carbon dioxide gas is linked to warming of the Earth's atmosphere. However, critics say Tunisia has been slow to match words with action. The African Union is leading an effort called the ‘Great Green Wall' initiative. The project aims to restore damaged land across areas south of the Sahara, commonly called the Sahel. In North Africa, some national projects to fight climate change are making a difference. Tunisia will reportedly present an oases protection project at the Madrid climate conference. Local farmers in northern Algeria are seeking help from Mexican experts to plant prickly pear cactus. The desert plant needs little rainfall and provides nutrients and a way to make money. Algeria is also trying to renew efforts for a reforestation project that did not have good results. Question 1: According to the news report, what’s the aim of the ‘Great Green Wall' initiative? Question 2: According to the news report, which of the following is not mentioned as a feature of prickly pear cactus? 三、重点词汇 1. worsen: to become worse or to make something become worse （使）恶化；（使）更糟 2. initiative: a new plan or process to achieve something or solve a problem 倡议；新措施 3. restore: to return something or someone to an earlier good condition or position 修复；使复位；使复职 4. reportedly: according to what many people say 据传闻，据称 5. oasis: a place in a desert where there is water and therefore plants and trees and sometimes a village or town绿洲（复数oases） 6. prickly pear cactus:仙人掌 7. nutrient: any substance that plants or animals need in order to live and grow 养分；营养物，滋养物

一、听力练习 1. A. European space agency. B. China National Space Administration. C. United Arab Emirates space agency. D. U.S. space agency. 2. A. Launching. B. Landing, C. Returning. D. Orbit transfer. 二、听力文本 China showed off its Mars spacecraft during a landing test last week in the northern province of Hebei. China is planning to send a lander and rover to Mars next year to explore parts of the red planet. The United States and European space agency are also sending rovers to the planet in 2020, and the United Arab Emirates plans to launch an orbiter. Officials say the Mars lander successfully passed a hovering-and-obstacle avoidance test. The landing area had small piles of rocks on the ground, similar to what the uneven surface on Mars is like. The lander will have to move around on this kind of surface when it gets to the planet. In 2016, China officially began the Mars exploration mission work, and currently all of the different development work is progressing smoothly. China has developed a powerful rocket, the Long March 5, to send the spacecraft to Mars in 2020. The trip to the plant will last about seven months. But landing on it will take only about seven minutes. The landing will be the most difficult part of the space flight. Many spacecrafts sent to Mars have been lost or destroyed over the years. Only the U.S. space agency NASA has been successful, with eight landings. China's space program plans to use a Long March 5 rocket to send a spacecraft to the Moon by the end of this year, or early next year. The Chang'e-5 spacecraft will bring back pieces of rock from the moon's surface. Last January a Chang'e-4 probe successfully touched down on the far side of the moon. While NASA sent humans to the moon, this was the first time for a probe to touch down on the lesser-known far side. The landing was a major success for China's space program. China first landed a spacecraft on the moon in 2013. Question 1: According to the news report, which of the following has successfully sent spacecrafts to Mars? Question 2: According to the news report, which of the following will be the most difficult part of the space flight? 三、重点词汇 1. hovering-and-obstacle avoidance test: 悬停和避障测试 2. uneven: not level, equal, flat, or continuous 不平整的；参差不齐的；不平等的；不平坦的；不连续的 四、背景知识

5.新闻数字的听记+新闻听力词汇总结

专四应试技巧：英语新闻数字的听记 专四听力技巧很多,这里主要谈四位以上的数字和带小数点的百分数的听记问题。 在收听VOA英语广播的过程中，听众时常会碰到许多数字，这是我国英语学习者的一大难关，四位数以上的数字更是如此。原因是英汉两种语言的计数单位不完全一样。它们的最大区别是：汉语中有“万”和“亿”这两个计数单位，英语没有;而英语的million(百万)和billion(十亿)这两个计数单位，汉语里却是在它们的前面加上十，百，千而构成的复合计数单位，于是形成了英汉数字的不同表示法。 英汉两种语言的计数单位是不一致的，英语每四位数，汉语每五位数要变更其计数单位的名称，这就形成了四位以上数字的不同表示法。这些不同的表示法给英语学习者，尤其是给来辨别数量单位并接受信息的英语广播听众带来了很大的困难。 怎样才能克服这一困难，做到准确无误地听记英语新闻中出现的数字呢?根据我们的收听实践，发现采取以下步骤，比较容易听记： 1)根据美国英语中每逢四位数就要变更计数单位的规则，记数时采用国际习惯每隔三位数用一逗号分开，即1，000以上的数：先从后向前数，每三位数加一“,”，第一个“,”号前为thousand，第二个“，”号前为million，第三个“，”号前为billion(在英国英语国家中为thousand million)，然后一节一节表示。例如：123，456，895，167，读成one hundred (and) twenty three billion four hundred (and) fifty-six million eight hundred (and) ninety-five thousand one hundred and sixty-seven.从这一读法中不难看出：除了trillion，billion，和million外，其他数字都是百、十、个的反复使用。 2)以trillion，billion，million和thousand为中心，收听时集中注意力听清楚是多少个trillion，多少个billion，多少个million和多少个thousand，及时记下并在它们的后面分别用“，”分开，没有具体数字的就打上“0”。当然trillion的前面还有一些更大的计数词，其规律都是一样的。 3)注意数字的书写表达方法。 一般说来，英语数字的书写方法有以下三种： (1)如果数字能用一个单独单词来表达，就直接写出该单词。如：“一”、“九”、“十五”、“八十”就分别写作one，nine，fifteen和eighty。 (2)如果数字要用一个复合数词或几个数词来表达，如：“二十一”、“九十九”、“一百零一”、“一千八百七十六”等等，通常就写出阿拉伯数字“21”、“99”、“101”、“1，876”等等。如果数字是比较大的整数，常常要用阿拉伯数字加英语单词一起来表达。如“一百六十万”、“四十五亿”就写成“1.6 million”和“4.5 billion”等等。 另外，还有一些数字可以有两种读法。例如： 1，000可读作one thousand或ten hundred， 4，500可读作four thousand five hundred或forty-five hundred， 500，000可读作five hundred thousand或half million。 在VOA的英语广播中，如果数字达到或超过了billion，Special English和Standard English 的读法通常都不一样。如：The Chinese News Agency says Chin a’s population has grown to 1,031,882,511 persons. (St.) Standard English的播音员将这一数字读作one billion thirty-one million eight hundred eighty-two thousand five hundred eleven。而Special English 的播音员将这一数字读作one thousand thirty-one million。又如：World Bank President A.
