Tom called several times a week just for few minutes to say hello and see if everything was OK.‎ ‎   One morning Tom phoned Uncle John again. Again no answer. Two hours later he called the 3rd time. Still no answer, he got very anxious. So he called Uncle John’s next door neighbor. Tom told her that he was worried about Uncle John and asked her to see what was wrong. A while later, the neighbor phoned Tom. She said nervously, “Tom, I’m sorry it took so long. Uncle John didn’t answer the door, so I used his spare key. I found him lying on the bathroom floor. I could not wake him up.” Tom called the doctor immediately, and then rushed to Uncle John’s house. When he got there, the doctor had already been there. The doctor said that he was just in time to save him.‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎2011年广东高考英语计算机辅助口语考试(试题B)‎ 视频文本内容 W: Dr. Brown, welcome to today’s program.‎ M: Thank you. It’s a pleasure being here.‎ W: We know that you are a language specialist, and you just published a book on how to learn a foreign language. And it’s selling well, so tell us the title of your book?‎ M: It’s called “Learning a language over Ex and Tost” (音)‎ W: That sounds very interesting, tell us what you discuss in your book.‎ M: It is very important to set up a regular program like planning a few minutes every morning around the breakfast time.‎ W: But I have been learning Spanish for four years, and I haven’t become a good speaker of it.‎ M: We can’t become fluent speakers in the matter of a few minute hearing that. We should follow a regular course of study.‎ ‎ ‎ 三问 ‎1. 学生问：Could you please speak a little more?‎ 电脑答：My basic suggestion is to learn a foreign language by talking small steps.

But people many have different learning styles.‎ ‎2. 学生问：What do you mean by “learning styles?”‎ 电脑答：I mean different ways of learning. Some prefer to see models of the patterns they are expected to learn; others see the hearing instructions over reading them. All preferences are determined by factors so just character, culture and past experiences.‎ ‎3. 学生问：How did you learn a foreign language?‎ 电脑答：I learned while doing things.

On the blackboard were two math problems. He thought they were their homework and copied them down. A few days later, Tom went to Professor Brown’s office and apologized to him for taking so long to finish the homework. The problems seemed to be a little harder to do than usual. He asked Professor Brown if he still wanted his homework. He told Tom to throw it on the desk covered with a lot of papers. Tom feared that his homework would be there forever.‎ One Sunday morning, about six weeks later, Tom had a heavy knock at the front door. It was Professor Brown. He rushed in with Tom’s homework in his hand. He said to Tom excitedly, “I’ve just written an introduction for one of your papers. Read it so that we can get it published.” For a minute, Tom had no idea what he was talking about. Tom was later told that the two problems he copied down as his homework were two famous math problems that had never been worked out. For the first time, Tom realized that the two problems have something special in them.‎ ‎ ‎ ‎2011年广东高考英语计算机辅助口语考试（试题D）‎ Part B 视频文本内容 W: I feel terrible.

I guess it’s really how my interest in bears started. To me, bears, more than any other creature, represent wilderness. And more than that — wildness itself. Brown bears once roamed across Europe and North America but today they’re found in just a few small pockets of really wild land. Alaska is one of the bears’ last strongholds. In most places, bears keep a healthy distance from each other but these bears have somehow learned to live with one another. Left alone, it has become a city of bears.‎ Part B Role Play 情景介绍(30”)‎ 角色：你是即将毕业的大学生Tom。‎ 任务：(1) 向师姐Mary请教如何成功面试；‎ ‎ (2) 根据谈话内容回答同学的提问。‎ 生词：eye contact 目光交流 ‎ ‎ W: Hi Tom.‎ M: Hi Mary.‎ W: Haven’t seen you for a while.
