听力原文： I had just gone to bed after a very hard day when the phone rang. It was an eccentric farmer. I had never met him before although I had often heard people talk about him. He sounded quite nervous and he had been talking for a minute or so before I understood anything. Even then all I could make out was that someone called Milly had had a very bad accident. I hadn't the slightest idea who she was but I obviously had to go.

It had been snowing heavily that day and I didn't know the way. I had been driving for at least an hour when I finally found his place. He was standing there, waiting for me. It seemed Milly had died. "She meant more to me than anyone even my own wife!" he said. I could see that he had been crying. I thought something terrible had taken place, a possible scandal. I was even more shocked when he told me he had put her in the barn. "I wouldn't leave her out in the cold!" he said.

Milly had clearly been a secret lover of his. I was about to tell him he could not expect me to cover anything up when he opened the barn door. He lifted his candle and I saw a dark figure on the ground. "She was such a good cow! I wouldn't let anyone but a doctor touch her!" he said, and burst into tears again.

Questions 33 to 35 are based on the passage you have just heard.

In the afternoon, Anne Hayes, a recently qualified accountant and member of the audit team, was following an audit

trail on some cash payments when she discovered what she described to the audit partner, Zachary Lincoln, as an

‘irregularity’. A large and material cash payment had been recorded with no recipient named. The corresponding

invoice was handwritten on a scrap of paper and the signature was illegible.

Zachary, the audit partner, was under pressure to finish the audit that afternoon. He advised Anne to seek an

explanation from Frank Monroe, the client’s finance director. Zachary told her that Van Buren was a longstanding client

of Fillmore Pierce and he would be surprised if there was anything unethical or illegal about the payment. He said

that he had personally been involved in the Van Buren audit for the last eight years and that it had always been

without incident. He also said that Frank Monroe was an old friend of his from university days and that he was certain

that he wouldn’t approve anything unethical or illegal. Zachary said that Fillmore Pierce had also done some

consultancy for Van Buren so it was a very important client that he didn’t want Anne to upset with unwelcome and

uncomfortable questioning.

When Anne sought an explanation from Mr Monroe, she was told that nobody could remember what the payment

was for but that she had to recognise that ‘real’ audits were sometimes a bit messy and that not all audit trails would

end as she might like them to. He also reminded her that it was the final day and both he and the audit firm were

under time pressure to conclude business and get the audit signed off.

When Anne told Zachary what Frank had said, Zachary agreed not to get the audit signed off without Anne’s support,

but warned her that she should be very certain that the irregularity was worth delaying the signoff for. It was therefore

now Anne’s decision whether to extend the audit or have it signed off by the end of Friday afternoon.

Required:

(a) Explain why ‘auditor independence’ is necessary in auditor-client relationships and describe THREE threats

to auditor independence in the case. (9 marks)

,he’d been unemployed，and with winter raging on the chill had finally hit home.Most of his friends had already left the Midwestern town,but he stayed on.After all,he was born here.

It was getting dark and light snow was coming down.He almost didn’t see the old lady,but in the dim light of day,he could see she needed help.He pulled up in front of her car and got out.

Even with a smile on his face,she was worried.Was he going to hurt her？He didn’t look safe;he looked poor and hungry.Joe knew how she felt and said to her,“I’m here to help you,ma’am.Why don’t you wait in the car where it’s warm.”She had a flat tire and Joe set about replacing it immediately.All this put the woman at ease.She then rolled down her window and began to talk to him，telling him that she was from St.Louis and was only passing through.Then the thankful woman asked Joe how much she owed him.But Joe told her that he had been given a hand in the past and if she wished to pay him back,she could give the money to someone who needed her help next time.

A few miles down the road the lady went into a small café.A waitress brought a clean towel to wipe her wet hair.The waitress was nearly eight months pregnant,but she never let the strain and aches change her attitude.The old lady wondered how someone who had so little could be so giving to a stranger.When the waitress came back to give the lady her change from a hundred dollar bill,she found a message on a napkin：“Take this.Someone once helped me out the way I’m helping you now.If you really want to pay me back，here’s what you can do. Don’t let the chain of love end with you.”

That night when she got home from work and climbed into bed，the waitress was thinking about what the lady had written.How could the lady have known that she and her husband needed the money？With the baby due next month,it was going to be hard.Knowing how worried her husband was,she whispered soft and low to him，“Everything’s gonna be alright，I love you，Joe.”
