Hi，everyone！This is Pop World of VOA.I’m Susan.
Well，first，I’d like to say a few words to my dear listeners who are not very familiar with this program.
Since many people want to listen to and understand pop songs，radio producers at VOA have made hundreds of programs over sixty years.We have a vast library of“golden old songs”，classics，as well as the“latest pop songs”．
For those of you who like a bit of background with your favorite music，there’s The history of Pop or The Road to Music.These two series bring you the language of pop music and information about the periods and the artists.If you want to hear from the artists themselves，there’s a new series called About the Big Hits.This is based on interviews with popular singers and songwriters.They talk to us about the meanings and ideas behind their songs.
If you want to understand the words to the big music hits，Pop Words is the program for you.After all it’s hard for native English speakers to understand most pop songs，so if English isn’t your first language，you shouldn’t be surprised if the words to some songs leave you in the dark.

从A、B、C、D四个选项中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。
21．The plans should be drawn as ________ as possible，showing all the measurements.
A．authentic B．accurate
C．correct D．proper
解析：选B。accurate 是“精确的”；句意：平面图应该力求画得尽可能地精确，显示出所有的比例。authentic是“真的；真正的”；correct 是“正确的”；proper是“合适的”。
22．Not only ________ the theft，but also ________ the police of taking him wrongly.
A．he did deny；he was accused
B．did he deny；he charged
C．he denied；he charged
D．did he deny；he accused
解析：选D。accuse sb.of sth.是指“控告某人某物”之意；句意：他不仅否认盗窃，而且还指控警察冤枉他。而charge 多用于charge sb.with sth.表示“控告某人某物”。
23．The project ________ on by the famous scientist proved valuable.
A．concentrate B．concentration
C．concentrating D．concentrated
解析：选D。concentrate on sth.是“集中在某物上”，故应该用D 项，即过去分词形式作后置定语，修饰the project。
24．Her mother doesn’t ________ her going to study in the United States alone.
A．agree B．admit
C．approve D．approve of
解析：选D。approve 多用作不及物动词，其后多接介词of，再接宾语。而agree 多接介词with，再接宾语，表示“同意某物”。admit 是“承认”之意。
25．—I am afraid Mr.Wood can’t see you until 4 o’clock.
— Oh，________ I won’t wait.
A．no doubt B．after all
C．in that case D．in this way
解析：选C。in that case 是“如果那样的话”之意，表示假设。而no doubt 是“毫无疑问”；after all 是“毕竟；终究”之意；in this way 是“以这种方式”。
26．You will find this map of great ________ in helping you to get round London.
A．useful B．valuable
C．value D．helpful
解析：选C。“of＋n.”的结构是相当于名词所对应的形容词，故应该用C项。be of value相当于be valuable。句意：你将会发现这幅地图在帮助你游览伦敦的过程中是很有价值的。而A、B、D三项均不符合语法。
27．Only in this way，________.
A．the computer can repair
B．does the computer repair
C．the computer does repair
D．is the computer repaired
解析：选D。以only开头的句子，其后主句多用倒装的句式，故应该用D 项。
28．Never before，________ in greater need of modern public transport than it is today.
A．has this city been B．this city has been
C．was this city D．this city was
解析：选A。否定词never用于句首，故用倒装语序，又因为时间状语before，故用现在完成时。
29．________，the football game has been decided not to be put off.
A．Heavily as did it rain
B．As it rained heavily
C．Heavily as it rained
D．As heavily it rained possible
解析：选C。as 引导让步状语从句，应用倒装语序，即将状语从句中的表语或状语等提到句首，此处是把状语heavily 提到句首，句意：尽管雨下得很大，足球赛还是决定不能推迟。
30．Not having visited the place，the girl is ________ to travel to it.
A．eager B．looking forward
C．anxious D．desired
解析：选A。 be eager to do是“渴望干某事”之意；而look forward to 后面多接doing 的形式，即to 为介词，be anxious to do 是“渴望/急于干某事”，多用来表示含有焦急情绪的，对结果或前途的着急等；desire是不及物动词，故应该用desiring，而不是用desired 的形式。
31．—How about the performance?
—Wonderful.Well，you know，this performance is being held to raise money for the social ________.
A．advantage B．welfare
C．profits D．benefits
解析：选B。social welfare 是“社会福利”之意。答句句意：你知道的，举行这场表演是为了社会福利筹款。而advantage 是“优点；好处”；profit是“利润”；benefit是“收益；好处”，均不符合句意。
32．________ be scolded by the teacher，he had to make up an excuse.
A．So as to B．In order to
C．So as not to D．In order not to
解析：选D。so as to do 相当于in order to do，是“为了”之意，均可以用来表示目的，但so as to do 一般不用于句首，故应该选择D项。
33．The manager demanded that all the work ________ ahead of time.
A．must be finished B．need to be finished
C．should finish D．be finished
解析：选D。demand 后面所接的宾语从句的谓语动词多用虚拟语气来表示，故应该用D 项。
34．Reforming the education system will be a long and difficult ________.In this course，people should make every effort to throw the old one.
A．program B．process
C．project D．procedure
解析：选B。process 是“过程”之意；句意：改革教育系统是一个长期并艰难的过程，在这个过程中，人们应该尽一切努力抛弃旧体制；program 相当于procedure，是“程序”之意，project，是“工程”之意，均不符合句意。
35．He is _________ me in position in the company，but he doesn’t lift up his horn(盛气凌人)．
A．junior than B．senior than
C．junior to D．senior to
解析：选D。 be senior to sb.是“地位比某人高”之意；而be junior to sb.是“地位比某人低”；由后面的语境可知，D为准确的选择项。

阅读下面短文，从短文后各题所给的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。
When I come across a good article in reading newspapers，I often want to cut and keep it.But just as I am about to do so I find the article on the __36__side is as much interesting.It may be a discussion of the way to __37__in good health，or __38__about how to behave and conduct oneself in society.If I cut the front article，the opposite one is likely to __39__damage，leaving out half of it or keeping the text __40__the title.Therefore，the scissors would __41__ before they start，__42__halfway done when I find out the __43__ result.
Sometimes two things are to be done at the same time，both worth your __44__.You can only take up one of them，the other has to wait or be __45__ up.But you know the future is unpredictable (不可预料)—the changed situation may not allow you to do what is left __46__.Thus you are __47__ in a difficult position and feel sad.How __48__that nice chances and brilliant ideas should gather around all at once? It may happen that your life __49__ greatly on your preference of one choice to the other.
In fact that is what __50__ is like：we are often __51__ with the two opposite sides of a thing which are both desirable like a newspaper cutting.It often occurs that our attention is drawn to one thing only __52__ we get into another.The __53__ may be more important than the latter and give rise to a divided mind.I __54__ remember a philosopher’s remarks: “When one door shuts，another opens in life.”So a casual (不经意) __55__ may not be a bad one.
36．A.front B．same

解析：选D。根据语境：当我刚要剪下好的文章时，发现反面也很有趣。“opposite side”指“报纸的反面”。

38．A.advice B．news

40．A.on B．for
C．without D．off
解析：选C。此处指破坏的结果：只剩一半内容或者只有内容没有题目。“without the title”表明报纸的破坏程度。
41．A.use B．handle
C．prepare D．stay
解析：选D。承接上文，两面都有用，剪刀剪一面，另一面会遭到破坏。所以，在剪之前，或者剪了一半，我发现令人遗憾的结果时，剪刀常常会停住。“stay”表现出我的犹豫。
42．A.or B．but
C．so D．for
解析：选A。“or”表示两种情况：或者……或者……。
43．A.satisfying B．regretful
C．surprising D．impossible
解析：选B。常理：剪刀既然停下，说明可能我发现了令人遗憾的结果。“regretful”指“后悔的，遗憾的”。
44．A.courage B．strength
C．attention D．patience
解析：选C。上文以剪报纸为例，说明此处的道理：有时，两件事都很值得你注意，需要同时做，但你只能选择其中一件。

解析：选A。语境：你只能选择其中一件，另一件只得等待或者放弃。
46．A.near B．alone

53．A.following B．next
C．above D．former
解析：选D。紧接上文语境：前者(另一件值得注意的事)可能比后者(正在做的事)更重要，更让人分心。“the former”与后文信息词“the latter”相呼应。

解析：选A。我仍然记得哲人的话：当一扇门闭上时，另一扇门会打开。

第三部分 阅读理解(共20小题；每小题2分，满分40分)
阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中，选出最佳选项。
A
Yes，we love the way our computers，PDAs，video games，and iPads have revolutionized our lives and let us stay connected and entertained ourselves.But there may be a downside for our health，says Gary Small，MD，author of iBrain: Surviving the Technological Alteration of the Modern Mind.For one thing，digital immersion(侵入) can cause us to lose the social connections that protect us from stress.And video games—while they may improve eye-hand coordination and even help train surgeons and pilots—may also suppress(抑制) some parts of the brain，disturbing our memory，distracting our attention，and weakening our problem-solving skills.“It’s not all good；it’s not all bad，” says Dr.Small.“It’s about finding the right balance.”
Here are some of his tips for taking control:
Add up your total leisure time spent with technology.The average American spends six hours a day on digital entertainment (including TV and video games)．Aim to reduce the total by 10 to 20 percent，freeing up more time for family and friends.
Make regular family dinners a priority.Research shows that teenagers who talk about their day with family members at the dinner table (instead of eating alone in front of a screen) are less likely to engage in high-risk behavior.
Vary your tasks.Alternating between household chores throughout the day reduces the stress associated with a computer-centered lifestyle.Switch often between answering e-mails，returning calls，and writing a document.
56．The underlined word in the first paragraph possibly means ________.
A．damage B．advantage
C．benefit D．convenience
解析：选A。词义猜测题。上文提到“电脑、掌上电脑、视频游戏、苹果板式电脑”的优点，即“使我们保持联系，给我们提供了娱乐”；故由此处的but可知，downside与上文是反义关系，故选择A项，即“对于我们的健康来说也是一种危害”。
57．Which statement in the following agrees with the tips in the text?
A．Try to spare more time with our family and friends as well as with the computer.
B．Ask the children to have dinner at the dinner table instead of in front of the screen.
C．Keep on doing our work all the day till we finish all of them.
D．Do some cleaning or washing after being concentrated on the computer for some time.
解析：选D。细节理解题。D项所述与文中第五段的第2句话“Alternating between household chores throughout the day reduces the stress associated with a computer-centered lifestyle.”相吻合。
58．What’s the main point of the passage?
A．How to succeed in one’s career.
B．How to balance stress and technology for a healthier lifestyle.
C．The high technology has caused too much damage to our lifestyle.
D．The drawbacks and the strong points of the high technology.
解析：选B。主旨大意题。根据原文内容可知，本文主要是提供给我们一些关于如何协调工作压力与科技之间的关系从而取得一种更为健康的生活方式。故选择B项；其余选择项均为干扰项。
59．The children less likely to avoid highly dangerous behaviour are those who ________ according to the text.
A．are taken good care of by their parents
B．have the chance to talk about their day at the dinner corner with their parents
C．prepare rich dinners for the family very often
D．dislike eating their dinner alone in front of the television
解析：选B。细节理解题。根据第四段的“...teenagers who talk about their day with family members at the dinner table (instead of eating alone in front of a screen) are less likely to engage in high-risk behavior.”内容可知，那些可以与父母在饭桌边谈论他们一天生活的孩子们可以更有可能避免高危行为。
B
Telecommuting—substituting the computer for the trip to the job—has been praised as a solution to all kinds of problems related to office work.For workers it promises freedom from the office，less time wasted in traffic，and help with child-care conflicts.For management，telecommuting helps keep high performers on board，reduces delay and absence from work by removing commutes，allows periods of solitude for high-concentration tasks，and provides scheduling flexibility.In some areas，local governments are encouraging companies to start telecommuting programs in order to reduce rush-hour traffic jam.
But these benefits do not come easily.Making a telecommuting program work requires careful planning and an understanding of the differences between telecommuting realities and popular images.Many workers are seduced (诱惑) by rosy illusions of life as a telecommuter.A computer programmer from New York City moves to the quiet Adirondack Mountains and stays in contact with her office via computer.A manager comes into his office three days a week and works at home the other two.An accountant stays home to care for her sick child；she hooks up her telephone modern connections and does office work between calls to the doctor.
These are powerful images，but they are a limited reflection of reality.Telecommuting workers soon learn that it is almost impossible to concentrate on work and care for a young child at the same time.Before a certain age，young children cannot recognize，much less respect，the necessary boundaries between work and family.
Management too must separate the myth from the reality.Although the media has paid a great deal of attention to telecommuting in most cases it is the employee’s situation，not the availability of technology that precipitates (沉淀，促成) a telecommuting arrangement.That is partly why，despite the widespread press coverage，the number of companies with work-at-home programs or policy rules remains small.
60．The first paragraph mainly tells us ________.
A．telecommuting has substituted computers for a trip to work
B．why telecommuting has been hailed as a substitution as a real trip to work
C．telecommuting is a solution to all kinds of problems related to work
D．the workers prefer to choose telecommuting instead of a real trip to work
解析：选B。主旨大意题。根据第一段的第1句话可知，本段主要讲述了“远程办公被推举为代替实际上班的原因”。
61．Why do the benefits of the telecommuting come with difficulty for the workers?
A．Because there is much difference between telecommuting realities and popular images.
B．Because an accountant stays home to care for her sick child.
C．Because it is difficult to plan the working time when the worker has to take care of a child.
D．Because the children can’t understand their parents when their parents are working at home.
解析：选C。推理判断题。C项所述与文中第三段的第2句话的内容相吻合。
62．We can infer from the last two paragraphs that ________.
A．managers must realize the difference between myth and reality
B．it is high technology that contributes to the telecommuting arrangement
C．there are a number of companies with telecommuting programs
D．there are lots of media coverage for the work-at-home guidelines
解析：选D。推理判断题。D项所述与文中末段的“...despite the widespread press coverage，...”相吻合。
63．The best title for the passage is ________.
A．some information about the Telecommuting
B．the benefits of the Telecommuting
C．people’s attitude to the Telecommuting
D．the workers’ and the managers’ opinions on Telecommuting
解析：选A。主旨大意题。本文主要讲述了与远程办公有关的情况，如人们对远程办公的认识、远程办公的优缺点等；即“与远程办公有关的信息”。
C
Laws that would have ensured pupils from 5 to 16 received a full financial education got lost in the “wash-up”．An application is calling on the next government to bring it back.
At school the children are taught to add up and subtract (减法) but，extraordinarily，are not routinely shown how to open a bank account－let alone how to manage their finances in an increasingly complex and demanding world.
Today the parenting website Mumsnet and the consumer campaigner Martin Lewis have joined forces to launch an online application to make financial education a compulsory element of the school curriculum in England.Children from 5 to 16 should be taught about everything from pocket money to pensions，they say.And that was exactly the plan preserved in the Children，Schools and Families bill that was shelved by the government in the so-called “wash-up” earlier this month－the rush to legislation before parliament was dismissed.Consumer and parent groups believe financial education has always been one of the most frustrating omissions of the curriculum.
As the Personal Finance Education Group (PFEG) points out，the good habits of young children do not last long.Over 75% of 7 to 11-year-olds are savers but by the time they get to 17，over half of them are in debt to family and friends.By this age,26% see a credit card or overdraft (透支) as a way of extending their spending power.PFEG predicts that these young people will “find it much harder to avoid the serious unexpected dangers that have befallen many of their parents’generation unless they receive good quality financial education while at school.”
The UK has been in the worst financial recession (衰退) for generations.It does seem odd that－unless parents step in－young people are left in the dark until they are cruelly introduced to the world of debt when they turn up at university.In a recent poll of over 8,000 people,97% supported financial education in schools，while 3% said it was a job for parents.
64．The passage is mainly about________.
A．how to manage school lessons
B．how to deal with the financial crisis
C．teaching young people about money
D．teaching students how to study effectively
解析：选C。主旨大意题。全文围绕青少年理财教育展开论述，所以C项表达了本文的主要意思。
65．It can be inferred from the first two paragraphs that________.
A．the author complains about the school education
B．pupils should not be taught to add up and subtract
C．students have been taught to manage their finances
D．laws on financial education have been effectively carried out

Somewhere on the other side of the world，a small group of workers is busy with a life-or-death struggle.This battle isn’t about self-protection，as admirable as that might be.By staying to face the radiation and fire at Japan’s Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Station following the earthquake and then tsunami (海啸) in Japan，the 50 or so workers may have already shortened their life.They knew that would happen.
And yet they stay，working in near-total darkness，pumping seawater onto exposed nuclear fuel in hopes that they can prevent thousands of tons of radioactive material going into the air，and protect the health of millions of people.
Their task sounds like something out of a sci-fi thriller.They worked on the equipment in the complete darkness only by their flashlights，listening for explosions.They carry heavy oxygen tanks on their backs.They wear white，full-body jump suits to protect their bodies.Like Oscar said in “Armageddon”：“Scariest environment imaginable.That’s all you have to say.”
According to news reports，some of the 50 workers volunteered to remain behind to take charge of the fire pumps with which they’re spraying seawater on the exposed fuel.“It’s part of the job，part of the training，” an American nuclear power plant operator said.“Nobody makes a secret of the possible dangers at a place like this.If there’s a problem，you don’t call somebody in to fix it，it’s our problem.We’re the only ones who can fix it.That’s just what we do.”
I don’t know about you，but I’ve never really thought of nuclear power plant workers as “guardians at the gate”－those whose jobs may at any time place them in a position to protect us，perhaps at the risk of their own lives.
These are obviously guardians at the gate.In every case they’re trained to respond to unknown possibilities.For them，it isn’t a matter of courage－it’s standard operating procedure.
68．What do we know from the text?
A．The rescue work was admirable.
B．The accident was successfully handled.
C．The workers faced a life danger.
D．The earthquake was the main reason.
解析：选C。推理判断题。句意：这场战役并非自我保护，这点非常令人钦佩。A项“营救工作令人钦佩”；B项“被成功控制”；D项未提到，均不符合题意。故选C。
69．The third paragraph is mainly about________.
A．the way they worked
B．the dangerous environment
C．Oscar’s famous words
D．the description of a film
解析：选B。主旨大意题。根据第三段中的“...like...a sci-fi thriller；complete darkness；Scariest environment”可知，此处指危险的环境。故B项符合题意。
70．The underlined word “you” in Paragraph 5 refers to________.
A．the 50 or so workers B．the readers
C．the news reporters D．the author
解析：选A。词义猜测题。根据后半句“从未认为核电站工人会是看门人”可推断，作者对工人们的敬佩。故选A。
71．What would be the best title for the text?
A．Japan’s nuclear accident
B．Guardians at the gate
C．Saving nuclear power station
D．Using nuclear power safely
解析：选B。主旨大意题。通读全文可知，本文主要讲述了五十几位核电站工人保卫核电站的事迹。故B项符合题意。

The “Neighborhood Watch” scheme all started a few years ago in the quiet village of Mollington after a number of burglaries in the village and the surrounding area.The villagers came up with the idea that they themselves could keep an eye on their neighbors’ possessions while they were away on holiday.Since then，and with the support of the government and police，more than 50,000 “Neighborhood Watch” schemes have been set up all over the country.
The object of each “Watch” group is to reduce the opportunities that criminals have in any particular street or area.Each villager who is a member of the scheme will call the police whenever they see something suspicious.It is the police who actually check out each report and look into what is happening.Villagers who are part of the “Watch” are not supposed to act as police or put themselves in danger.
When a new “Neighborhood Watch” scheme is set up in an area，one benefit is that most burglars dare not take a chance on breaking into someone’s house because they know that there is a high risk of being seen by neighbors keeping a lookout.Burglars also know that people are more likely to have fitted good locks to their doors and windows.
Another benefit is that，since the “Neighborhood Watch” schemes came into existence，there is growing evidence of a new community spirit.It is bringing people together as never before，and encouraging people to care for each other.New friendships are being made，and contact is often established with old people living on their own，who are often the most frightened and the most at risk.
