听力原文:One day, a poor boy who was trying to pay his way through school by selling goods

听力原文: One day, a poor boy who was trying to pay his way through school by selling goods door to door found that he only had one dime left. He was hungry, so he decided to beg for a meal at the next house.

However, he lost his nerve when a lovely young woman opened the door. Instead of a meal he asked for a drink of water. She thought he looked hungry so she brought him a large glass of milk. He drank it slowly, and then asked, "How much do I owe you?"

"You don't owe me anything," she replied. "Mother has taught me never to accept pay for a kindness." He said, "Then I thank you from the bottom of my heart." As he left that house, he not only felt stronger physically, but also increased his faith in God and the human race.

Years later the young woman became critically ill. The local doctors were baffled. They finally sent her to the big city, where specialists could be called in to study her rare disease. Dr. Howard Kelly, the poor boy, now famous, was called in for the consultation. When he heard the name of the town she came from, a strange light filled his eyes. Immediately, he rose and went down through the hospital hall into her room. He recognized her at once. He went back to the consultation room and determined to do his best to save her life. From that day on, he gave special attention to her case.

After a long struggle, the battle was won. Dr. Kelly requested the business office to pass the final bill to him for approval. He looked at it and then wrote something on the side. The bill was sent to her room. She was afraid to open it because she was positive that it would take the rest of her life to pay it off. Finally she looked, and the note on the side of the bill caught her attention. She read these words, "Paid in full with a glass of milk."

(33)

A.Because he lost his way and was hungry.

B.Because he was a homeless child and it was the way he made a living.

C.Because he didn't have much money left and felt hungry.

D.Because all his money was given to the school.

听力原文:As the proverb says, "No one knows the value of health until he loses it." In oth

听力原文: As the proverb says, "No one knows the value of health until he loses it." In other words, nothing is more valuable than health.

It is clear that health is the foundation of one's future success. If you become sick, it is nearly impossible to pursue your career effectively, much less to make your dreams come true. On the other hand, if you are strong, you can go all out to overcome the obstacles that lie ahead of you. Health is the resource of our energy. What should we do to maintain our health? First, we should exercise every day to strengthen our muscles. Second, we might as well keep good hours, ff we get up early, we can breathe fresh air and see the sunrise. This habit can do wonders for our outlook on life. Third, there is a proverb that says, "Prevention is better than cure." ff you pay close attention to your health, you can avoid getting sick, or at least cure yourself of a disease while it is still in its beginning stage.

In conclusion, health is more important than wealth. Those who are rich but poor in health are on more fortunate than those who are poor, but healthy in body. If you want your wish to come true, health is the most important component of your success.

(30)

A.Wealth.

B.Health.

C.Habit.

D.Disease.

听力原文: Many years ago, there lived a poor man who had only one son. One day, there was no more money or food left in I the house, so the man said," My son, you must go to find some work and earn some money."

The young man left home. He walked many miles until he met a rich farmer who had thousands of sheep. This farmer needed a shepherd to look after his sheep so he gave the young man the job.

There were seven mountains around the farm, and there were sheep in every field on every mountain. One day, black clouds gathered. A storm began. The wind tore off branches and blew down mighty trees. The rain poured down. Paths and bridges were washed away.

The young man rushed around and gathered the sheep from the seven hillsides to lead them to shelter in the farm. He had almost reached the farm with his enormous flock when he saw that the bridge over the last stream had been washed away. There was only a wooden plank left.

It was only safe for the sheep to walk across the plank one at a time. They did not like the look of the narrow, creaky piece of wood, but the shepherd pushed a big black sheep across and the rest started to follow, one at a time, one at a time.

What happened next? I'll tell you when all the sheep are safely across the plank. At the moment they axe still going over, one at a time, one at a time, one at a time.

Have all the sheep crossed over the bridge yet? Oh dear me, no. The young man saved thousands of sheep from the mountains and fields. They all have to get across that shaky plank, and they are still crossing, one at a time, one at a time. When will the last sheep have crossed? You may well ask. The answer is, they will all have crossed when every sheep is on the other side! But just now, they are still walking over, one at a time, one at a time.

And what about the young man? Well, he is still waiting, and watching those sheep crossing the plank, one at a time.

One at a time, one at a time.

(33)

A.He wanted to be a shepherd.

B.His father had-no more money for food.

C.His mother wanted him to find a wife.

D.He wanted to earn much more money.

听力原文: Pulling heavy suitcases all day in the summer is hard work, especially when you're a thin 14-year-old. That was me in 1940 —the youngest and smallest baggage boy at New York City's Pennsylvania Railway Station.

After just a few days on the job, I began noticing that the other fellows were overcharging passengers. I'd like to join them, thinking, "Everyone else is doing it."

When I got home that night, I told my dad what I wanted to do. "You give an honest day's work," he said, looking at me straight in the eye. "They're paying you. If they want to do that, you let them do that."

I followed my dad's advice for the rest of that summer and have lived by his words ever since. Of all the jobs I've had. it was my experience at Pennsylvania Railway Station that has stuck with me. Now I teach my players to have respect for other people and their possessions. Being a member of a team is a totally shared experience. If one person steals, it destroys trust and hurts everyone. I can put up with many things, but not with people who steal. If one of my players were caught stealing, he'd be gone.

Whether you're on a sports team, in an office or a member of a family, if you can't trust one another, there's going to be trouble.

(33)

A.They were all thin, young boys.

B.They were all from poor families.

C.Many of them earned money in a dishonest way.

D.They could earn much, but they had to work hard.

听力原文:Each day we all make many choices; most of these choices are small—what to wear,

听力原文: Each day we all make many choices; most of these choices are small—what to wear, what to eat etc. still there are many important choices that we make in life—which university to attend, what to study, whom to marry, etc. Sometimes we may become tired of making choices, but we always know that we will continue to make them as long as we live, because that is better than having them made for us. We may sometimes ask for advice about a choice we must make, but ultimately most of the decisions as to which choices are best will be made by ourselves, both important and unimportant. We also know that we will undoubtedly have to suffer that consequences of making poor choices and that we will often rejoice in the many fortunate choices we make.

Many writers have written about choices throughout our lives such as Boris Pasternak etc. One of the most popular and beloved poems in the English language has "choice" as its subject matter. In this poem, "The Road Not Taken", Robert Frost describes walking along a path through the woods and coming to a fork in the path. He must choose which fork to take, that is, which way to go, knowing that he will probably never be able to come back and try the other way. He ends his poem by "I took the one less traveled by, and that has made all the difference". This poem is seen as a metaphor for the important choices in life which do, indeed, make "all the difference". In Frost's case, the choice is often interpreted as his choice of career, to take the risk of becoming a poet, knowing that thousands of poets never really succeed.

(33)

A.Because it is difficult to make choices.

B.Because it is necessary for us to live.

C.Because others make us to do so.

D.Because making choice is better than having choices made for us.
