A nurse and her elderly uncle were waiting for a bus at a corner in downtown Chicago.

Buses came by, but not the one they wanted. The woman finally half-entered one of the buses and asked the driver if the bus she wanted stopped at that corner.The driver ignored her, so she repeated the question. Incredibly, he then closed the door -- on her arm -- and drove off.The woman, her arm stuck in the door, trotted alongside the bus, shouting. Passengers said the driver stopped after almost a block only because they, too, were shouting.When the driver finally did stop and opened the door, the woman jumped on the bus to get his badge number. Then he took off again and went another couple of blocks before other shouting passengers persuaded him to stop and let the woman off.After the driver's bosses at the Chicago Transit Authority--a tax-supported governmental body -- heard of the incident, they looked into it and set his punishment: a five-day suspension without pay. That struck me as rather light.But Bill Baxa, a CTA public-relations man, said, "That's a pretty harsh penalty. "

Five days off work is a harsh penalty for dragging a woman alongside a bus by her arm? Baxa said, "Any time you take money away from someone, it is a harsh punishment. The driver makes $14 an hour. Multiply that by 40 and you can see what he lost. "

Yes, that comes to $560, a tidy sum. But we know that people in the private sector are fired for far less every day. If the people who run the CTA think that the loss of a week's pay is more than enough, I offer them a sporting proposition: Give me a bus. Then have their wives stick their arms in the doorway of the bus, and I'll slam the door shut, stop the gas pedal and take them for a fast one-block jog. And I'll pay $560 to anyone who is bold enough to try it. Any takers? Mr. Baxa? Anybody? I didn't think so.

1.The nurse half-entered one of the buses because____.

A、the bus they wanted didn't stop there

B、she wanted the driver to stop the bus

C、she wanted to get some information from the driver

A、she couldn't get herself away from the bus

3.How many blocks was the woman away from the corner where she waited when the bus driver finally let her off? ____

A、Almost one block.

B、Almost two blocks.

C、Probably three blocks.

D、Probably five or six blocks.

4.The bus driver's punishment was____.

A、being dismissed from the CTA

B、being out of work for a week

C、paying a fine of $560

D、working without pay for five days

5.Why did the author offer a sporting proposition? ____

A、Because the CTA paid little attention to the incident.

B、Because the bus driver had not been fired.

C、Because he wanted to threaten the CTA people.

D、Because he thought the penalty was not a harsh on

听力原文: We walked in so quietly that the nurse at the desk didn't even lift her eyes from the book. Mum pointed at a big chair by the door and I knew she wanted me to sit down. While 1 watched, mouth open in surprise, Mum took off her hat and coat and gave them to me to hold. She walked quietly to the small room by the lift and took out a wet mop. She pushed the mop past the desk and as the nurse looked up, Mum nodded and said, "Very dirty floors." "Yes. I'm glad they've finally decided to clean them," the nurse answered. She looked at Mum strangely and said, "But aren't you working late?" Mum just pushed harder, each push of the mop taking her further and further down the hall. I watched until she was out of sight and the nurse had turned back to writing in the big book. After a long time, Mum came back. Her eyes were shining. She quickly put the mop back and took my hand. As we turned to go out of the door, Mum nodded politely to the nurse and said, "Thank you." Outside, Mum told me: "Dagmar is fine. No fever." "You saw her, Mum?" "Of course, I told her about the hospital rules, and she will not expect us until tomorrow. Dad will stop worrying as well. It's a fine hospital. But such floors! A mop is no good. You need a brush."

听力原文:Many women are attracted by the excitement of being a flight attendant — you earn
your living and see the world at the same time. Yet, many people consider flight attendants to be simply multi-lingual waitresses doing a very routine job.

Surely the truth must lie somewhere between these conflicting views. Of course, flight attendants do travel a lot yet are often tired or do not have enough time to take advantage of all the places they visit. They are working women after all! It is also true that speaking several 1anguages and having hotel experience are requirements for the job. But in addition, a flight attendant must be a psychologist and a nurse and be able to remain calm and efficient and carry out the necessary procedures in case of an emergency. A passenger's life may depend on her just as much as on the pilot.

So let us not underestimate her — apparently she is a charming waitress but she is also a highly trained and essential member of the crew of an aeroplane. Without her, there is no doubt that traveling by air would become a terrible experience. From this we can see what important role she plays in modern transportation.

A.They do routine work and speak a few languages.

B.They see the world and earn a lot of money.

C.They look pretty and look after passengers.

D.They see the world and do routine work.

听力原文:Margaret, married with two small children, has been working for the last seven ye

听力原文: Margaret, married with two small children, has been working for the last seven years as a night cleaner, cleaning offices in a big building.

She trained as a nurse, but had to give it up when her elder child became seriously ill. "I would have liked to go back to it, but the shifts are all wrong for me, as I have to be home to get the children up and off to school."

So she works as a cleaner instead, from 9 p.m. till 6 a.m. five nights a week for just £90, before tax and insurance. "It's better than it was last year, but I still think that people who work unsocial hours should get a bit extra."

The hours she's chosen to work mean that she sees plenty of the children, but very little of her husband. However, she doesn't think that puts any pressure on their relationship.

Her work isn't physically very hard, but it's not exactly pleasant, either. "I do get angry with people who leave their offices like a place for raising pigs. If they realized people like me have to do it, perhaps they'd be a bit more careful."

The fact that she's working all night doesn't worry Margaret at all. Unlike some dark buildings at night, the building where she works is fully lit, and the women work in groups of three. "Since I've got to be here, I try to enjoy myself — and I usually do, because of the other girls. We all have a good laugh, so the time never drags."

Another challenge Margaret has to face is the reaction of other people when she tells them what she does for a living. "They think you're a cleaner because you don't know how to read and write," said Margaret. "I used to think what my parents would say if they knew what I'd been doing, but I don't think that way any more. I don't dislike the work though I can't say I'm mad about it."

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

33. Why did Margaret quit her job as a nurse?

34. Why does Margaret get angry with people who work in the office?

35. How does Margaret feel when at work?

(30)

A.She felt tired of taking care of patients.

B.She had suffered a lot of mental pressure.

C.She needed the right time to look after her children.

D.She wanted to earn more money to support her family.
