2004年MBA听力材料及参考答案(3)(3)

room and I realized I’d lost my watch, so I
went back to the gentlemen’s toilets again to see if it
was there, and it disappeared. I wondered if maybe one of
the cleaners had picked it up.

　　W:No, did you ask the attendant if he’d seen it?

　　M:Er, the attendant wasn’t there at the time actually. I didn’t see anyone else there.

　　W:Right, can you give me some details, then, please?

　　M:Well, it’s erm… an ordinary sort of watch, you know,
not one of those fancy digital things.

　　W:No.

　　M:It’s erm…

　　W:What make is it?

　　M:It’s a wind-up watch. I think it’s a Timex. Yes, it’s
definitely a Timex. Erm, it’s got the date on it. Well,
you know, a date indicator and a second hand and it’s got
a, a brown leather strap on it as well.

　　W:Right. And what color’s the face?

　　M:It’s a creamy color.

　　W:O.K. Well, leave it with me and I’ll check with the
attendant. (254 words)

　　M: You now have 30 seconds to check your answers to questions 11—13．

　　Questions 14—16 are based on a monologue. You now have 15
seconds to read questions 14—16．

　　W:Populations tend to grow at a dramatic rate. This means
that they progressively double. As an example of this type
of growth rate, take one penny and double it every day for
one month. After the first week, you would have only 64
cents, 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”. It took from the beginning of human life to the
year 1830 for the population of the earth to reach one
billion. That represents 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 9,000 per hour,
220,000 per day, 80 million per year. This is not only due
to higher birth rates, but to lower death rates 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 populations
about every twenty-one years, with a growth rate of 3．3
percent a year
