听力原文: Father's Day was first observed in Spokane, Washington, in 1910. [32] Mrs. Dodd first proposed the idea of a "father's day" in 1906. Mrs. Dodd wanted a special day to honor her father, William Smart, who was widowed when his wife died in childbirth after their sixth child was born. Mr. Smart was left to raise the newborn and his other five children by himself. Mrs. Dodd wanted Father's Day to be celebrated on the first Sunday in June, her father's birthday. But it wasn't until 1966 that President Lyndon Johnson signed a presidential proclamation, declaring the 3rd Sunday of June as Father's Day. [33] In 1972, President Richard Nixon established a permanent national ceremony of [34] 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. Today, Father's Day has become a day to [35] not only honor your father, but all men who act as a father-like figure, such as stepfathers, uncles, grandfathers, and adult males.

(33)

A.William Smart.

B.Mrs. Dodd.

听力原文: When little Midori was two years old, she often Climbed onto the piano bench and
reached for the violin that belonged to her mother, a 38-year-old professional musician.

"Please don't touch my violin, Midori," her mother scolded. The violin was, after all, worth more than $ 20 000. A professional musician never owns inexpensive musical instruments.

But Midori persisted; she longed to handle the graceful instrument that made beautiful sounds. Finally, on her third birthday, Midori was handed a package: a tiny violin, about half the normal size. That was Midori's first violin.

Almost from the moment Midori was born, her mother knew she was sensitive to music. For several years mother and daughter practiced together day after day. She-was eager to learn. She loved music from the bottom of her heart. Failure often led to tears ,though she never once turned from the instrument. She just could not stop her love for music. Instead, she persisted until the problem was overcome.

One day Johnson, an American musician, heard Midori playing the violin. He couldn't believe she was just eight years old. "She must make a tape and I will take it to the United States, "the musician said.

A famous American violin teacher heard the tape. He, too, had difficulty believing his ears. The playing was absolutely astonishing. He immediately accepted her as a pupil and recommended her for a full scholarship. In 1982 ,Midori and her mother moved to Neat York city, leaving behind a comfortable life in Japan.

(33)

A.She is a housewife.

B.She is a teacher.

听力原文:An advertisement says "Learn English in six weeks, or your money back". Of course

听力原文: An advertisement says "Learn English in six weeks, or your money back". Of course, it never happens quite like that. As we know, no language is easy to learn except one's mother tongue. And think how much practice that gets. Before the Second World War people usually learned English in order to read English literature. Now most people want to speak English. Every year many millions of people start to learn English. How do they do it?

Some people try at home, with books and tapes, some use radio or television programmes, others go to school or attend evening classes. If they use English only two or three times a week, it will take a long time to learn it, like English learning at school. A few people try to learn English fast and study six or more hours a day. It is clearly easier to learn English in England, Canada, Australia or the United States. However, most people cannot afford this, and for many it is not necessary. They need English in order to do their work better. For example, most scientists and engineers chiefly need to be able to read books and reports in English. Whether English is learnt quickly or slowly; it is hard work. Good teachers, books and machines will help, but they cannot do the student's work for him.

(30)

A.English is the easiest language to learn.

B.English is as easy to learn as your mother tongue.

C.English can be learnt in six weeks.

D.It is easier to learn English on radio or TV.

听力原文: When I was in the third grade, I was picked to be the princess in the school pla
y. For weeks my mother had helped me practice my lines. But once on stage, every word disappeared from my head. Then my teacher told me she bad written a narrator's part for the play, and asked me to change roles. Though I didn't tell my mother what had happened that day, she sensed my unhappiness and asked if I wanted to take a Walk in the yard.

It was a lovely spring day. We could see dandelions popping through the grass in bunches, as if a painter had touched our landscape with bits of gold. I watched my mother carelessly bend down by one of the bunches. "I think I am going to dig up all these weeds," she said. "From now on, we'll have only roses in this garden. "

"But I like dandelions," I protested. "All flowers are beautiful — even dandelions!" My mother looked at me seriously. "Yes, every flower gives pleasure in its own way, doesn't it?" she asked thoughtfully. I nodded. "And that is true of people, too," she added.

When I realized that she had guessed my pain, I started to cry and told her the truth.

"But you will be a beautiful narrator," she said, reminding me of how much I loved to read stories aloud to her.

Over the next few weeks, with her continuous encouragement, I learned to take pride in the role. The big day finally came. A few minutes before the play, my teacher came over to me. "Your mother asked me to give this to you," she said, handing me a dandelion. After the play, I took home the flower, laughing that I was perhaps the only person who would keep such a weed.

(30)

A.Mainly because she felt nervous on the stage.

B.Mainly because she lost her interest in that role.

C.Mainly because she preferred the role of the narrator.

D.Mainly because she had difficulty memorizing her words.

听力原文:M: Hi, Kate. How are you getting on?

W: Hey, what are you doing here? I didn't expect you until later.

M: Well, I've already finished everything I had to do at work, so I thought I'd come back and help you. I know you've had a busy day.

W: Well, I've already done the shopping, but I haven't bought the wine yet.

M: Oh, I'll do that. Have you picked up the children yet?

And mend the television? It still doesn't work. Oh, and wrap up your mother's birthday present. It still needs wrapping paper. And turn on the heating. It's getting quite cold in here.

M: Oh dear, it's one of those days.

(27)
