听力原文: When cars first started appearing on the streets of the world, few people took them seriously. They were toys--playthings for grown men who didn't have much to do. No one thought that the automobile would become the world's most popular means of transportation.
When Henry Ford started selling his Model T in 1908, he changed all that. Ford believed that a car should be low-cost transportation that everyone could afford. So he decided to make such a car. First, he wanted a dependable automobile that wouldn't break down easily. Then he wanted a simple engine that almost anyone could fix.
Ford wanted to sell the car at a low price, so he had to make it at a low cost. Thus he made only one model and designed one color--black.
In 1932, the Duesenberg brothers produced a car that many people think it was the most luxurious automobile ever made--the Duesenberg SJ. Every Duesenberg car was custom-made, so each one was different. But it usually weighed about 7,000 pounds and had a very wide wheelbase--150 inches. It also had a 400 horsepower engine that could drive the huge car from zero to 100 miles per hour in 17 seconds.
The inside was very luxurious, too. It had the best silk, leather, silver and wood. A Dusenberg car was definitely expensive but rich people often felt that they had to own one. Unfortunately, the car cost so much to produce that the company lost money. In 1937, after making only 500 of them, the Duesenbergs stopped producing this kind of cars forever.
(33)
A.The two models of cars.
B.The history of car industry.
C.The development of cars in America.
D.The structure of Duesenberg cars.

taxpayers. Barry, their son, is aged 32. Graeme, Catherine and Barry are all UK resident, ordinarily resident and
domiciled. Graeme has come to you for some tax advice.
Graeme has invested in shares for some time, in particular shares in Thistle Dubh Limited. He informs you of the
following transactions in Thistle Dubh Limited shares:
(i) In December 1986, on the death of his grandmother, he inherited 10,000 £1 ordinary shares in Thistle Dubh
Limited, an unquoted UK trading company providing food supplies for sporting events. The probate value of the
shares was 360p per share.
(ii) In March 1992, he took up a rights issue, buying one share for every two held. The price paid for the rights
shares was £10 per share.
(iii) In October 1999, the company underwent a reorganisation, and the ordinary shares were split into two new
classes of ordinary share – ‘T’ shares and ‘D’ shares, each with differing rights. Graeme received two ‘T’ and three
‘D’ shares for each original Thistle Dubh Limited share held. The market values for the ‘T’ shares and the ‘D’
shares on the date of reorganisation were 135p and 405p per share respectively.
(iv) On 1 May 2005, Graeme sold 12,000 ‘T’ shares. The market values for the ‘T’ shares and the ‘D’ shares on that
day were 300p and 600p per share respectively.
(v) In October 2005, Graeme sold all of his ‘D’ shares for £85,000.
(vi) The current market value of ‘T’ shares is 384p per share. The shares remain unquoted.
Graeme and Catherine have owned a holiday cottage in a remote part of the UK for many years. In recent years, they
have used the property infrequently, as they have taken their holidays abroad and the cottage has been let out as
furnished holiday accommodation.
Graeme and Catherine are now considering selling the UK country cottage and purchasing a holiday villa abroad.
Initially they plan to let this villa out on a furnished basis, but following their anticipated retirement, would expect to
occupy the property for a significant part of the year themselves, possibly moving to live in the villa permanently.
Required:
(a) Calculate the total chargeable gains arising on Graeme’s disposals of ‘T’ and ‘D’ ordinary shares in May and
October 2005 respectively. (7 marks)

The course is divided up into two parts: class time for learning laws and regulations and driving time to practice driving. Each student is required to drive a total of six hours. The students are divided up into groups of four. The students and the instructor go out driving for two hour blocks of time. Thus, each student gets half an hour driving time per outing. Drivers Ed cars are unlike other cars in which they have two sets of brakes, one on the driver's side and one on the other side where the instructor sits. Thus, if the student driver should run into difficulties the instructor can take over.
After a student has passed the driver's education course and reached the appropriate age to drive (this age differs in every state but in most cases the person must be 16 years old), he must take his driver's test. The person must pass all three tests in order to be given a driver's license. If the person does well in his or her driver's education class, he or she will pass the test with flying colors and get a driver's license.
In America, the driver's course mentioned above______.
A.is considered as part of the advanced education
B.is given to anyone wanting to get a driver's license
C.is carried on after students graduate from high school
D.is offered to all the students of Grade 2 in high school

£32,000 and is provided with a petrol-driven company car which has a CO2 emission rate of 187g/km and had a
list price when new of £22,360. In August 2003, when he was first provided with the car, Benny paid the company
£6,100 towards the capital cost of the car. Golden Tan plc does not pay for any of Benny’s private petrol and he is
also required to pay his employer £18 per month as a condition of being able to use the car for private purposes.
On 1 December 2006 Golden Tan plc notified Benny that he would be made redundant on 28 February 2007. On
that day the company will pay him his final month’s salary together with a payment of £8,000 in lieu of the three
remaining months of his six-month notice period in accordance with his employment contract. In addition the
company will pay him £17,500 in return for agreeing not to work for any of its competitors for the six-month period
ending 31 August 2007.
On receiving notification of his redundancy, Benny immediately contacted Joe Egmont, the managing director of
Summer Glow plc, who offered him a senior management position leading the company’s expansion into Eastern
Europe. Summer Glow plc is one of Golden Tan plc’s competitors and one of the most innovative companies in the
industry, although not all of its strategies have been successful.
Benny has agreed to join Summer Glow plc on 1 September 2007 for an annual salary of £39,000. On the day he
joins the company, Summer Glow plc will grant him an option to purchase 10,000 ordinary shares in the company
for £2·20 per share under an unapproved share option scheme. Benny can exercise the option once he has been
employed for six months but must hold the shares for at least a year before he sells them.
The new job will require Benny to spend a considerable amount of time in London. Summer Glow plc has offered
Benny the exclusive use of a flat that the company purchased on 1 June 2003 for £165,000; the flat is currently
rented out. The flat will be made available from 1 September 2007. The company will pay all of the utility bills
relating to the flat as well as furnishing and maintaining it. Summer Glow plc has also suggested that if Benny would
rather live in a more central part of the city, the company could sell the existing flat and buy a more centrally located
one, of the same value, with the proceeds.
On 15 March 2007 Benny intends to sell 5,800 shares in Mahana plc, a quoted company, for £24,608. His
transactions in the company’s shares have been as follows:
£
June 1988 Purchased 8,400 shares 6,744
February 1996 Sale of rights nil paid 610
January 2005 Purchased 1,300 shares 2,281
The sale of rights, nil paid, was not treated as a part disposal of Benny’s holding in Mahana plc.
Benny’s shareholding in Mahana plc represents less than 1% of the company’s issued ordinary share capital. He will
not make any other capital disposals in 2006/07.
In addition to his employment income, Benny receives rental income of £4,000 (net of deductible expenses) each
year. He normally submits his tax return in August but he has not yet prepared his return for 2005/06. He expects
to be very busy in December and January and is planning to prepare his tax return in late February 2007.
Required:
(a) Calculate Benny’s employment income for 2006/07. (4 marks)

What are they learning? In a Vermont college town I found the answer sitting in a toy store book rack, next to typical kids' books like Heather Has Two Mommies and Daddy Is Dysfunctional. It's a teacher's guide called Happy To Be Me, subtitled Building Self Esteem.
Self-esteem, as it turns out, is a big subject in American classrooms. Many American schools see building it as important as teaching reading and writing. They call it "whole language" teaching, borrowing terminology from the granola people to compete in the education marketplace.
No one ever spent a moment building my self-esteem when I was in school. In fact, from the day I first stepped inside a classroom my self-esteem was one big demolition site. All that mattered was "the subject", be it geography, history, or mathematics. I was praised when I remembered that "near", "fit", "friendly", "pleasing", "like" and their opposites took the dative case in Latin. I was reviled when I forgot what a cosine was good for. Generally I lived my school years beneath a torrent of castigation so consistent I eventually ceased to hear it, as people who live near the sea eventually stop hearing the waves.
Schools have changed. Reviling is out, for one thing. More important, subjects have changed. Whereas I learned English, modern kids learn something called "language skills." Whereas I learned writing, modern kids learn something called "communication". Communication, the book tells us, is seven per cent words, 23 per cent facial expression, 20 per cent tone of voice, and 50 per cent body language. So this column, with its carefully chosen words, would earn me at most a grade of seven per cent. That is, if the school even gave out something as oppressive and demanding as grades.
The result is that, in place of English classes, American children are getting a course in How to Win Friends and Influence People. Consider the new attitude toward journal writing: I remember one high school English class when we were required to keep a journal. The idea was to emulate those great writers who confided in diaries, searching their souls and honing their critical thinking on paper.
"Happy To Be Me" states that journals are a great way for students to get in touch with their feelings. Tell students they can write one sentence or a whole page. Reassure them that no one, not even you, will read what they write. After the unit, hopefully all students will be feeling good about themselves and will want to share some of their entries with the class.
There was a time when no self-respecting book for English teachers would use "great" or "hopefully" that way. Moreover, back then the purpose of English courses (an antique term for "Unit") was not to help students "feel good about themselves." Which is good, because all that reviling didn't make me feel particularly good about anything.
Which of the following is the author implying in paragraph 5?
A.Self-criticism has gone too far.
B.Communication is a more comprehensive category than language skills.
C.Evaluating criteria are inappropriate nowadays.
D.This column does not meet the demanding evaluation criteria of today.

Population tends to grow at an exponential(指数的)rate. This means that they progressively double. As an example of this type of growth rate take one penny and double every day for one month. After the first week, you would have only 64 cent, but after the fourth week you would have over a million dollars.
This helps explain why the population has come on“all of a sudden” took from he beginning of human 1ife to the year 1830 for the population of the earth to reach one billion. That repents(缓慢进行) a time span of at least two million years. Then it took from 1830 to 1930 for world population to reach 2 billion. The next billion was added by 1960 only thirty years and in 1975 world population reached 4 billion which is another billion people in only fifteen years.
World population is increasing at a rate of 9, 000per hour, 220,000 per day and 80 million per year.
This is not only due to higher birth rate, but to lower death rate as well. The number of births has not declined at the same rate as the number of deaths.
Some countries such as Columbia, Thailand, Morocco, Costa Rica and the Philippines are doubling their population about every twenty-one years with a growth rate of 3.3 percent a year or more. The United States is doubling its population about very eighty-seven years, with a rate of 0.8 percent per year.Every time a population doubles, the country involved needs twice as much of everything, including hospitals, schools, resources, food and medicines to care for its people. It is easy to see that this is very difficult to achieve for the more rapidly growing countries.
This passage chiefly discusses
A.the growth of world population.
B.one type of the exponential rate
C.the population problem of more rapidly growing countries.
D.the possible ways of dealing with the rapid population growth
According to the passage what helps to explain why the population problem has come on “all of a sudden”?A.The penny that doubles itself every day for one month
B.The time span of at 1east two million years in human history.
C.An illustration of the exponent growth rate given by the author.
D.The large amount of money you would luckily make after the fourth week
Which of the following statements is NOT true?A.World population is increasing at a rate of 150 per minute
B.Lower death rate also contributes to world population growth
C.The population of Columbia has been doubling every year for 21 years.
D.The United States is usually doubling its population on about every 87 years.
It took ______ for the world to increase its population from 1 billion to 4 billion.A.100 years
B.175 years
C.1975 years
D.over two million years
When a population doubles, the country involved needs twice as much of everything including __.A.hospitals and medicines

2 The Information Technology division (IT) of the RJ Business Consulting Group provides consulting services to its
clients as well as to other divisions within the group. Consultants always work in teams of two on every consulting
day. Each consulting day is charged to external clients at £750 which represents cost plus 150% profit mark up. The
total cost per consulting day has been estimated as being 80% variable and 20% fixed.
The director of the Human Resources (HR) division of RJ Business Consulting Group has requested the services of
two teams of consultants from the IT division on five days per week for a period of 48 weeks, and has suggested that
she meets with the director of the IT division in order to negotiate a transfer price. The director of the IT division has
responded by stating that he is aware of the limitations of using negotiated transfer prices and intends to charge the
HR division £750 per consulting day.
The IT division always uses ‘state of the art’ video-conferencing equipment on all internal consultations which would
reduce the variable costs by £50 per consulting day. Note: this equipment can only be used when providing internal
consultations.
Required:
(a) Calculate and discuss the transfer prices per consulting day at which the IT division should provide
consulting services to the HR division in order to ensure that the profit of the RJ Business Consulting Group
is maximised in each of the following situations:
(i) Every pair of consultants in the IT division is 100% utilised during the required 48-week period in
providing consulting services to external clients, i.e. there is no spare capacity.
(ii) There is one team of consultants who, being free from other commitments, would be available to
undertake the provision of services to the HR division during the required 48-week period. All other
teams of consultants would be 100% utilised in providing consulting services to external clients.
(iii) A major client has offered to pay the IT division £264,000 for the services of two teams of consultants
during the required 48-week period.
