9、and one longer conversation, and you will be asked several questions on each of the passages and the conversation.

10、 one is the best answer to the question you have heard.Questions 11 through 13 are based on the following passage. Its 60 years since Lego patented their little plastic blocks and since then over 600 billion bricks have been produced. While some people think Lego is just for childrenor that being gr

11、own up means leaving playfulness behindmy job often includes convincing fully grown adults, in sensible jobs, to play with Lego and build whatever comes to mind. As a Lego serious play facilitator, I ask people to build their thoughts, ideas and feelings. The serious play aspect encourages participa

12、nts to get creative through play. This allows people to put aside their usual barriers and respond in a more natural, free way. This has been shown to awaken narratives and expressions not usually availablebecause when people are playful, they can say and do things they dont normally say and do. And

13、 when we say things we dont normally say, we get to talk about things that we dont normally talk about.The Lego serious play method asks participants to build models that represent their thinking. This gives them the space to consider their own ideas, without the influence of other peoples input. It

14、 means that when they are then asked to present their ideas, these are already formed and not subject to any commonly-held view. Through this, people can find more original and honest voices.Now listen again.QuestionsWhat does the speakers job include?How does serious play benefit participants? Why

15、does the Lego serious play method ask participants to build models? Questions 14 through 16 are based on the following passage.Many people suffer from some form of extreme anxiety. Some experience occasional attacks of panic for almost no reason. Others go around in a state of continual uneasiness.

16、How do we control anxiety? The best way is to take drugs that help patients manage their anxiety. Patients who take these drugs say that they are able to work, to sleep and to go to places they feared to visit before. But the effects of the drugs on the human body, especially on the nervous system h

17、ave not been known for a long time.Scientists have started a series of studies to identify the effects of the drugs on the brain and have gained some insight into the costs and benefits of the anti-anxiety drugs. They are valuable because they can reduce the effects of expected failure, frustration

18、and disappointment. But their value demands a price. Two effects of the drugs are obviously harmful. First, they weaken a persons ability to react to changes; second, they fail to help a person deal with unexpected troubles. It is fairly certain that people will meet with problems they have never ex

19、pected, so these harmful effects may make the price of anti-anxiety drugs too high.Now listen again.QuestionsAccording to the speaker, what is the best way to manage anxiety?What does the speaker say about the anti-anxiety drugs? What harmful effect do the anti-anxiety drugs have? Questions 17 to 20

20、 are based on the following conversation.W: Okay. Mr. Smith. Lets begin your road test.M: Oh. I know Im ready. Ive been practicing in my driveway all week.W: Right.

Now carefully turn right here, and wait, wait, stop! You almost hit that pedestrian. How in the world did you pa

23、ss the written test anyway? You have to give way to any pedestrians crossing the street.M: Oh, sorry about that. It wont happen again.W: Whoa! Get out!
