Part II Listening Comprehension
Section A
News Report One
Fifteen passengers were burned alive when a passenger bus was set on fire by unknown men in Pakistan's southwestern Balochistan province, an official said.
Naseer Ahmed Nasir, deputy commissioner in the city of Sibi, said four men on motorcycles initially opened fire on a parked passenger bus at a hotel. “The armed men then came close to the bus and splashed petrol, setting it on fire，” he said.
[1] He said most of the dead were either children or women, Balochistan, near the Afghan border, is rich in natural resources. But it is also in under a riot.
[2]Militants there have for years complained that the central government has paid little attention to them and their economic needs. They have been fighting Pakistani military forces for self-rule.
Pakistan has said the militants in Balochistan do not have links to the Islamic hard-liners who have launched attacks in other parts of the country.
Questions 1 and 2 are based on the news report you have just heard.
1. Who were most of the victims according to the news? [C]
2. What are the militants in Balochistan dissatisfied with? [C]
News Report Two
A UN agency says there are major funding gaps in efforts to help the agricultural sector adapt to climate change. The Food and Agriculture Organization, the FAO, says this could affect food security. The warning comes as the UN Climate Change Conference continues in Cancun, Mexico.
[3]The World Bank estimates it will cost about $2.5 billion a year—for the next 40 years—to help agriculture in developing countries adapt to climate change. Other estimates say costs could run as high as $14 billion a year.
However, the FAO says, [4] “available financing mechanisms are substantially insufficient to meet the climate change and food security challenges faced by the agricultural sector.” This, despite the fact that the FAO says there are many examples of how agriculture can become more.
Questions 3 and 4 are based on the news report you have just heard.
3. According to the World Bank，how much does it cost to tackle agricultural challenges yearly? [C]

News Report Three
[5] The U.S. Federal Reserve announced yesterday it was raising interest rates for the first time since 2006. Known as the Fed, it’s America’s central bank. It’s led by Janet Yellen. Its job is to help stabilize America’s financial system. [6]The Fed makes moves to try to lower unemployment and control inflation, when the price of goods goes up too fast for people to afford them.
Because the U.S. economy is growing, the Fed raised its key interest rate by a quarter of a percentage point, not much. But gradual rate increases are likely in the New Year. That means you’ll have to pay more interest if you borrow money, higher loan rates for home buyers, higher interest rates if you finance a car, higher student loan rates for people who enter colleges afterwards.
[7] Eventually,savings accounts could earn a little more interest. A decade since the last “Star Wars” and nearly just as long, nine years, since the Fed last changed interest rates. But now, it’s time for the Fed to awaken, because after three episodes of quantitative easing, Janet Yellen must now use her most powerful weapon to restore balance in the economy.

5. What will happen to interest rates in the US? [A]
6. Why did the Fed change interest rates? [B]

[20] Communication would be impossible if everyone made up their own language.
Learning a language properly is very important. The basic vocabulary of English is not very large, and only about 2,000 words are needed to speak it quite well. But the more words you know, the more ideas you can express, and the more precise you can be about their exact meaning.
Words are the main thing we use in communicating what we want to say. [21]The way we say the words is also very important. Our tone of voice can express many emotions and shows whether we are pleased or angry, for instance.

[23] In 1972，President Richard Nixon established a permanent national ceremony of [24] Father's Day to be held on the third Sunday of June, coming almost sixty years after Mother’s Day had been proclaimed a national holiday.
