In this part of the test, you will hear a passage and read the same passage
with blanks in it. Fill in each of the blanks with the word or words you have

BOOKLET. Remember you will hear the passage ONLY ONCE.
Self-esteem is the combination of {{U}}(1) {{/U}} —the
conviction that you {{U}}(2) {{/U}} cope with life's challenges and are
worthy of happiness. Self-esteem is the way you talk to yourself about yourself.
Self-esteem has two interrelated aspects; it entails a sense of {{U}}(3)
{{/U}} and a sense of personal worth. It is the {{U}}(4) {{/U}}
self-confidence and self-respect. It is the conviction that one is competent to
live and {{U}}(5) {{/U}} Our self-esteem and self-image
are developed by {{U}}(6) {{/U}} All of us have conscious and
unconscious memories of all the times {{U}}(7) {{/U}}—they are part of
the {{U}}(8) {{/U}} of childhood. This is where the critical voice gets
started. Everyone has a {{U}}(9) {{/U}}. People with low self-esteem
simply have a more vicious and demeaning inner voice.
Psychologists say that almost every aspect of our lives—our personal
happiness, success, relationships with others, {{U}}(10) {{/U}} are
dependent on {{U}}(11) {{/U}}. The more we have, the better we deal with
things. {{U}} (12) {{/U}} is important because when
people experience it, they feel good and look good, they are {{U}}(13)
{{/U}}, and they respond to other people and themselves in healthy,
positive, growing ways. People who have positive self-esteem know that they are
{{U}}(14) {{/U}} , and they care about themselves and other people.
They do not have to {{U}}(15) {{/U}} by tearing other people down
or {{U}}(16) {{/U}} competent people. Our background
largely determines what we will become in personality and more importantly in
self-esteem. Where do {{U}}(17) {{/U}} come from? Many come from our
families, since more than 80% of our waking hours up to the age of eighteen are
spent {{U}}(18) {{/U}}. We are who we are because of where we've been.
We build Our own brands of self-esteem {{U}}(19) {{/U}}: fate, the
positive things life offers, the negative things life offers and our own
decisions about {{U}}(20) {{/U}}, the positives and the negatives.

填空题News can be something the authorities want you to know, or something they would rather keep secret: an announcement of a
1
, denial of a failure, or a secret scandal that nobody really wants you to
2
. If the authorities want to tell the world some good news, they issue statements, communiques, and call
3
. Or politicians make speeches. Local newspapers, radio and television help to

to what is going on. And by making contacts with
5
, journalists can ask for more information or explanations to help them
6
.
Unless the correspondent is an
7
, it is rare to trust any single source. Officials have a policy to defend, and
8
want to attack it. Rumor and gossip can also confuse the situation. So, you have to
9
as much as possible, using common sense and experience as final checks to help establish just what"s likely to be the truth, or
10
.
Just getting the news is only half the job. A correspondent may be well-informed, but his job is to
11
, the public. So, once the information is available it has to be written
12
which is also easily understood. Particularly for radio, since, while a newspaper reader can turn back and reread a sentence or two, the radio listener has
13
. This also means that only a limited number of facts can be contained in a sentence and that there should be an

. And vital information necessary to understand the latest development should be presented
15
in ease the producer of a news program decides to

Finally, the style of presentation must

, social welfare, and so on.
9
its physical size, economic power and international prestige, Canada"s population is very small. The current population is
10
. This paradox of having a small number of people in a very large, resource-rich area gives rise to some of
11
people have about Canada.
Most people do not know very much about Canada. Mention the country and usually
12
will spring to mind. On the one hand, you might picture

, frozen country where people live in igloos, eat fish, hunt bears and
14
snow and cold. On the other, you might think Canada is a country that is "just like America." Even Americans
15
Canada as the 51st state, a part of America that through some quirk of history is not one of the United States.
It is easy to understand how such
16
of Canada have become engrained. It is true that most of Canada lies very far north. Large areas of the country are wild, virtually unpopulated

, full of dangerous animals and freezing temperatures. But most Canadians live in the south of the country: about

of the population is estimated to live within

填空题 I've spent the past twenty years working in some of
the poorest places on earth, and, over that time, I've written a lot about
{{U}} {{U}} 1 {{/U}} {{/U}}. How has that connection affected my
work? I think in a way {{U}} {{U}} 2 {{/U}}
{{/U}}like a squatter settlement in central Haiti has been very helpful to our
work because {{U}} {{U}} 3 {{/U}} {{/U}}hid there in terms of
the health status of people and what's available to them that you just have to
confront early on. There isn't {{U}} {{U}} 4 {{/U}} {{/U}}.
There aren't people there to deliver health services, {{U}} {{U}}
5 {{/U}} {{/U}}. And, yet, that's precisely where {{U}} {{U}}
6 {{/U}} {{/U}}are. I think looking back to {{U}} {{U}} 7
{{/U}} {{/U}}, it was because we started in that setting that we had to
{{U}} {{U}} 8 {{/U}} {{/U}}that would work in places with very
scant health infrastructure, knowing that we would {{U}} {{U}} 9

local people to be {{U}} {{U}} 10 {{/U}} {{/U}}. Erect modest
facilities and try to {{U}} {{U}} 11 {{/U}} {{/U}}. That's how
it started for us in Haiti. And really, that's the model we've taken to
{{U}} {{U}} 12 {{/U}} {{/U}}in which we work.
Actually we needed to deal with issues that many people {{U}} {{U}}
13 {{/U}} {{/U}}, like housing and water and things like that. There are
two ways to look at this, I think, {{U}} {{U}} 14 {{/U}}
{{/U}}or a provider of services. If I'm in a Harvard training hospital and
{{U}} {{U}} 15 {{/U}} {{/U}}, then no one's going to expect me
to diagnose and {{U}} {{U}} 16 {{/U}} {{/U}}, but also build the
operating room and find electricity and supplies. But that's very much {{U}}
{{U}} 17 {{/U}} {{/U}}. So, there is that side of the model. And
that leads to listening hard to what patients say about their other problems. If
you have someone who has typhoid, they got that because they don't {{U}}
{{U}} 18 {{/U}} {{/U}}. So, you could keep spending your whole life
treating typhoid, which {{U}} {{U}} 19 {{/U}} {{/U}}, as you
probably know. Or you can treat typhoid and {{U}} {{U}} 20

The Hadza are not alone in facing the loss of their

the last speaker dies, so does the language. But eighty percent of the world"s population now speak just
