把我分享给大家！
今年4月，澳洲总理谭宝和移民部长都确认，
澳洲政府未来希望入籍的PR人士，
必须通过多项严格的考核！
申请人必须参加英语测试（相当于雅思6分的标准），未达标者无法申请入籍！
在获得澳洲永居PR签证后，申请入籍前需要在澳洲住满4年，其中有至少1年（12个月）是PR身份，四年内离开澳洲时间总共不得超过1年，且入籍这一年不得离开澳洲超过90天。（此前规定永居签证持有者只需等待一年即可申请入籍）
申请人必须承诺支持并遵循澳洲的价值观。（入籍考试会增加一些关于对妇女儿童实施暴力、女性割礼以及逼婚等问题，考察申请人对这些现象的看法）
入籍考试未来只能有3次机会，如果考试不及格，就不能入籍！必须两年后再参加一次考试。
除此之外，联邦政府还计划推出一系列重磅政策，如果未满足以下条件，入籍申请也将有可能会遭到拒绝！
目前的入籍材料中，只需能证明品行良好的无犯罪证明等基本材料即可。
但是，以后入籍需要提供的材料将包括：
就业证明（入籍申请者必须证明自己有工作）
交税证明（入籍申请者必须证明自己有向ATO的保税记录）
必须送子女到澳洲学校上学（申请者如有子女，必须将子女送到澳洲学校中就读）
参加社区活动（申请者必须证明自己曾参加社区活动，并成为各地社区一员）
政府希望以此考查申请者是否融入了澳洲的生活方式并且接受了澳洲的社会价值观，从而杜绝那些极端宗教分子、麻烦制造者和那些想利用澳洲慷慨福利的懒惰者。
澳洲总理在演讲中说道：
如果你要成为澳洲公民，那么英语是你首先需要具备的技能，这是作为一个澳洲人最最基本的要求。
随后，政府也表示，就算是在澳洲公民中，也存在一大批人，永远！无法！满足政府的入籍测试要求和英语要求！
昨天，电视台请来了一批人，
他们有的是在澳洲出生，有的是移民。
但他们都有一个相同的身份：
澳洲公民。
而他们将亲身体验一次澳洲公民入籍测试，
来看看澳洲当地人本身，是否能够通过政府为移民者安排的考试。
这份试卷到底是太难，还是像总理说的那样，都是些基本常识呢？
"澳洲的阳光、海滩、人文风情…一切的一切都挺完美的。"
"我爱澳洲自由的环境，而且它能提供给人们无穷的机遇。"
"每个人都很友善，人人都会友好地互相搭话。"
"澳洲是我的家，是个最棒的国家。"
看来，参加测试澳洲公民们真的很热爱这个美好的国家。
但是接下来，他们即将开始重新做一次入籍考试，
而他们将面对的考题，
则是从新拟定的澳洲公民入籍测试题中挑选出来的，
试题中加入了澳洲政府希望实施的新元素，
比如：测试入籍者英语语言能力的听、说、读、写题目。
考官解说道：
这次入籍考试的模拟测试，包括10道选择题和3道阅读理解题。
考试是英文闭卷考，一切手机和电子设备需要关闭。
考试时间为45分钟。
获得75分才能通过。
听到75分才能通过，不少人开始表示压力山大。。。
算了，硬着头皮上吧！
在看着他们考试时，
各位读者们，你们也来试试？
提问：澳大利亚联邦财产的标识是什么？
3选1：
a) 国歌
b) 澳洲国花
c) 联邦纹章
答案是c，联邦纹章。
你答对了吗？
参加考试的人，已经有点懵了。。。
再来一题：澳洲18岁及以上公民的责任是什么？
3选1：
a) 做当地社区服务
b) 随时随身带护照
c) 根据传召参加陪审团
答案是c，根据传召参加陪审团。
这题是不是简单点儿？
接下来这题，似乎很多人都要打开Google了！
提问：澳大利亚2901年的1月1日发生了啥？
3选1：
a) 澳大利亚通过全民公决改变了宪法
b) 澳大利亚的宪法生效
c) 澳大利亚和新西兰陆军部队成立
答案是b，澳大利亚的宪法生效了。
考场中的人们蹙眉深思，认真答题，
但这些问题还真不简单呐！
选择题过后，就是阅读理解了。
考卷中给出了一份说明书，要求大家阅读，并回答相关问题。
这也是改革后的入籍测试题中，会用到的题型。
答题过程中，大家都觉得，
这些题目比想象中要难多了！
交卷后，大家都表示对套试题的感受是"Shocking"（震惊）。。。
一位女士提出了这样的疑问：
"这些题目连澳洲当地人都会觉得难，我觉得要是新移民的话，根本答不出来…"
"更要紧的是，这种试题对于澳洲人的自我价值来说，到底有什么关系呢？它测试了我们的英文读写水平和英文理解能力，仅此而已，跟公民意识方面，完全没关系嘛…"
这位小哥则表示，就算把这套题再做20次，他还是会觉得很难。。。
还有人觉得自己的"入籍申请可能会被拒"。。。
这个妹子表示：简直像是在学校考试，答案都藏在阅读理解题里，想找到正确答案没那么容易。。。真的挺难的，但我觉得我做得还行~~~
这位大叔则说：这些题对我来说容易，但是如果真正用在入籍考试上的话，应该酌情将它变得简单点儿。选择题里的内容很好，为大家巩固了澳洲社会体系等知识，我老婆就是新移民，但这些题对她来说会很不容易。。。
好了！到了发成绩的时刻了！
觉得试题难的这位妹子，得了满分。
这位老太太，离满分差一分。
还有一批人，分别得了80-90多分。
但不幸的是，总共13位测试者中，只有9人通过了。。。
是的，有4位澳洲当地人，没有通过入籍测试。。。
做完测试后，多数人表示，
他们觉得自己"更像一个澳洲人了"。
但有两位测试者则对考试的意义持不同观点，
争论了起来。。。
下图这位大婶，对入籍考试的意义感触颇深：
她表示：
"我们都是澳洲公民，无论是谁，只要你在澳洲生活，就应该知道测试中的这些问题。"
而下图这位女士，则提出了不同的意见：
她说：
"作为一个从小学起就在澳洲受教育的人，这些问题对我来说还挺简单的。但是我没法想象初来乍到的新移民能够了解如此多的澳洲历史背景，这测试对他们来说太难了。政府应该适当降低难度。当然了，这是我的个人意见。"
听了上面的话，大妈则傲娇地怼回去：
"如果你想留在澳大利亚，那必须花点时间了解这个国家！"
好了，各位读者，你们认为她们说得都有道理吗？

·Section Two -
Read the following instructions on participation in a bike ride
Answer questions 1-8 with True, False or Not Given.
London to Brighton Bike Ride
The start
The bike ride starts at Clapham Common tube station.
Your Start Time is indicated by the colour of your body number in this pack. It is also printed on the address label of the envelope. Please arrive no earlier than 30 minutes before that time.
We allocate an equal number of cyclists for each Start Time to ensure a steady flow. Please keep to the time you've been given so we can keep to our schedule and avoid delaying other riders and prevent 'bunching' further down the route.
An Information Point, toilets and refreshment stands will be open from very early in the day.
Ride Carefully
We put together as many facilities as possible to help ensure you have a trouble-free day. But we also rely on you to ride safely and with due consideration for other cyclists and road users. Although many roads are closed to oncoming traffic, this is not always the case and you should be aware of the possibility that there could be vehicles coming in the opposite direction. Please do not attempt reckless overtaking whilst riding - remember it is NOT a race.
Follow all instructions
Every effort is made to ensure that the route is well signed and marshalled. Please obey all directions from police and marshals on the route. If you hear a motorcyclist marshal blow his/her whistle three times, move left.
Wear a helmet
Every year, we are delighted to see more riders wearing protective helmets, but we would like to see every cyclist on the ride wearing one. More than half of reported injuries in cycling accidents are to the head, and a helmet gives the best protection when the head hits the ground.
Attracting assistance
If you have an accident, ask a marshal for help; they are in contact with the support/emergency services. To call for help from our motorcycle marshals, give a 'thumbs down' signal. The marshal will do all hee can to help, providing hee is not already going to a more serious accident. If a motorcycle marshal slows down to help you, but you have just stopped for a rest and don't need help, please give a 'thumbs up' signal and hee will carry on. Remember - thumbs down means 'I need help'.
In case you breakdown
Refer to your route map and make your way to a Mechanics Point. Mechanical assistance is free when you show your Rider Identity Card; you just pay for the parts.
Refreshment stops
Look out for these along the route. Most are organised by voluntary clubs and their prices give you real value for money. They are also raising money for their local communities and the British Heart Foundation, so please give them your support.
Rain or shine - be prepared
In the event of very bad weather, watch out for signs to wet weather stations en route. Good waterproofs, like a cycle cape, are essential. Our first aid staff can only supply bin liners and by the time you get one you may be very wet. However, the English summer is unpredictable - it may also be hot, so don't forget the sun protection.
If you have to drop out
We will try to pick up your bike for you on the day. Call Bike Events (01225 310859) no more than two weeks after the ride to arrange collection. Sorry, we cannot guarantee this service nor can we accept liability for any loss or damage to your bike. Bike Events will hold your bike for three months, after which it may be disposed of. You will be charged for all costs incurred in returning your cycle.
Questions 1-8
Do the following statements agree with the information given in the text?
In boxes 1-8, write:
TRUE if the statement agrees with the information
FALSE if the statement contradicts the information
NOT GIVEN if there is no information on this
1. You should not arrive more than half an hour before your allocated starting time.

11. How much will you receive for an opened jar of contaminated Chicken Curry?
12. If you have eaten Chicken Curry from a jar with one of the batch numbers listed, whom should you contact?
·Section Four - Read the bee behaviour text and answer questions 13-15 in no more than two words.
[Note: This is an extract from a General Training Reading text on the subject of understanding bee behaviour. The text preceding this extract described Karl von Frisch's experiments and his conclusions about two bee dances.]
At first, von Frisch thought the bees were responding only to the scent of the food. But what did the third dance mean? And if bees were responding only to the scent, how could they also 'sniff down' food hundreds of metres away from the hive, food which was sometimes downwind? On a hunch, he started gradually moving the feeding dish further and further away and noticed as he did so that the dances of the returning scout bees started changing. If he placed the feeding dish over nine metres away, the second type of dance, the sickle version, came into play. But once he moved it past 36 metres, the scouts would then start dancing the third, quite different, waggle dance.
The measurement of the actual distance too, he concluded, was precise. For example, a feeding dish 300 metres away was indicated by 15 complete runs through the pattern in 30 seconds. When the dish was moved to 60 metres away, the number dropped to eleven.
Von Frisch noted something further. When the scout bees came home to tell their sisters about the food source, sometimes they would dance outside on the horizontal entrance platform of the hive, and sometimes on the vertical wall inside. And depending on where they danced, the straight portion of the waggle dance would point in different directions. The outside dance was fairly easy to decode: the straight portion of the dance pointed directly to the food source, so the bees would merely have to decode the distance message and fly off in that direction to find their food.
But by studying the distance on the inner wall of the hive, Von Frisch discovered a remarkable method which the dancer used to tell her sisters the direction of the food in relation to the sun. When inside the hive, the dancer cannot use the sun, so she uses gravity instead. The direction of the sun is represented by the top of the hive wall. If she runs straight up, this means that the feeding place is in the same direction as the sun. However, if, for example, the feeding place is 40-degrees to the left of the sun, even the dancer would run 40-degrees to the left of the vertical line. This was to be the first of Von Frisch's remarkable facts about how bees communicate and, in doing so, revolutionise the study of animal behaviour generally.
Complete the sentences below.
Choose NO MORE THAN TWO WORD from the text for each answer.
13. Von Frish discovered the difference between dance types by changing the position of the ..........
