听力原文: How do American husbands feel about having working wives? Many men encourage and

help their working wives. (29) Few households can pay the bills on just one salary, so the men are glad to see the second paycheck in the family. That paycheck provides money for necessities and maybe some luxuries, and it provides some security in case the husband loses his job. (29) Many men also feel that their working wives are more interesting people. Because both husband and wife have careers, they can discuss more than changing the baby's diapers or what to watch on TV. However, not all men are happy about having a wife who works. Working wives have money on their own and business associates that their husbands don't know. (30) Some husbands don't like the independence of their working wives. In addition, some husbands are unhappy because their working wives can't go out and run all the errands or stay home and cook fancy meals. (31) If a man gets angry because his wife is not his servant, the husband and wife could have marital difficulties.

So it will be very difficult for a woman in the society. On the one part, the companies don't want to hire women, so if they hired, they will reduce the salary, or increase the working time. And it is very unfair to women. On the other part, women play many roles in the family, such as mother, wife, and house-cleaner. So the husband should care more to the wife and share the burden.

(30)

A.Because their wives provide necessities and luxuries.

B.Because they can spend more money in doing so.

C.Because they can enjoy more freedom.

D.Because their wives can earn money to support the family and be interesting.

听力原文:When I arrived in America three years ago, I was surprised by the tremendous amou

听力原文: When I arrived in America three years ago, I was surprised by the tremendous amount of advertising. But now I've come to realize that it is a creative and necessary part of an industrial society. I, too, want to improve my life style. and to buy better products. I look to advertising to show me how to do it. Deciding what to believe in an advertisement, however, isn't easy. It seems to me that a person must purchase things with a lot of care. As a consumer, I want to get the best for my money so I really have to understand the techniques of advertising. Otherwise, manufacturers would be able to sell me anything, whatever its quality may be. The creative aspects of advertisements, for instance, often cover up defects or problems in products. I have learned this well, since I have made purchases and lost money because the items were of poor quality. The future advertising most likely will involve more public participation. In the future, if customers really care about the quality of something as well as the quantity, maybe advertisers will begin to care more about what they are trying to sell.

Questions 29 to 31 are based on the passage you have just heard.

29. What do we learn about the speaker?

30. What's the speaker's impression of the advertisement in America when she first arrived there?

31. What does the speaker think future advertisers should do?

(30)

A.She has always lived in America.

B.She visited America three years ago.

C.She has been in America for three years.

D.She has come to America to do research on advertising.

听力原文: In America, where labor costs are so high, "do it yourself" is a way of life. Ma
ny people repair their own cars, built their own garages, even rebuilt their own houses. Soon many of them will also be writing their own books. In Hollywood there is a company that publishes children's books with the help of computers. Although other book companies also publish that way, this company is not like the others. It allows the reader to become the leading character in the stories with the help of computers. Here is how they do it. Let us suppose the child is named Jenny. She lives in New York, and has a dog named Hody. The computer uses this information to make up a story with pictures. The story is then printed up. A child who receives such a book might say, "this book is about me," so the company calls itself the "Me-Books Publishing Company".

Children like the me-books because they like to see in print their own names and the names of their friends and their pets. But more importantly, in this way, readers are much more interested in reading the stories. Me-books are helping children to learn how to read.

(19)

A.They can do better than others.

B.It is expensive to hire labour.

C.They don't like to be helped.

D.They don't trust others.

听力原文:When Iraqi troops blew up hundreds of Kuwaiti oil wells at the end of the Gulf Wa

听力原文: When Iraqi troops blew up hundreds of Kuwaiti oil wells at the end of the Gulf War, scientists feared environmental disasters. Would black soot in the smoke from the fires circle the globe and block out the sun?

Many said "no way"; rain would wash the black soot from the atmosphere. However in America, air-sampling balloons have detected high concentrations of particles similar to those collected in Kuwait.

Now that the fires are out, scientists are turning their attention to yet another threat: the oil that didn't catch fire. It has formed huge lakes in the Kuwaiti desert. They trap insects and birds, and poison a variety of other desert animals and plants.

The only good news is that the oil lakes have out affected the underground water resources. So far, the oil has not been absorbed because of the hard sand just below the surface.

Nothing, however, stops the oil from evaporating. The resulting poisonous gases are choking nearby residents.

Officials are trying to .organize a quick cleanup, but they're not sure how to do it. One possibility is to burn the oil. Get those black soot detectors ready.

(31)

A.The threat of poisonous desert animals and plants.

B.The exhaustion of energy resources.

C.The destruction of oil wells.

D.The spread of the black soot from the fires.

听力原文:W: Do you like to run?M: Yeah, when the police are chasing me.W: Fast like Clemen

听力原文:W: Do you like to run?

M: Yeah, when the police are chasing me.

W: Fast like Clement?

M: Who?

W: Kerron Clement. He just broke the world record in the 400 meters. Did you know that he's only 19 years old? Did you see it on the news?

M: I heard a bit about it.

W: Okay. Well, let's look at the rest. This Florida sophomore ran the 400 meters in 44.57 seconds at the NCAA Indoor Track and Field Championships. He broke the mark of 44.63 seconds set by Michael Johnson in 1995.

M: Hey,I'm fast. I could beat him any day.

W: Yeah, only if there is a $20 bill blowing in the wind in front of you. Let's go back to the story now. Clement is from Trinidad and Tobago and moved to the United States when he was 13. He was a highly desirable athlete at La Porte High School in Texas. Big sports schools like Louisiana State University, Texas and Tennessee were after him. He chose Florida and wasted no time in making his mark. He won the NCAA championship in the 400 meter hurdles and then won the world junior championship in the same event. At the junior championships, Clement competed for the United States after earning his U.S. citizenship last summer. He probably could have gone to the Olympics for Trinidad and Tobago last year, but preferred to become an American. Why do you think he wanted to become an American?

M: Probably America is his new home and it has better 1iving conditions than back home.

W: Yeah, something like that. He said he loves competition and he wants to train with the best in the world, the Americans.

(20)

A.To confirm that the man is capable of beating Clement.

B.To show how sincere he is.

C.To give an example of how to run fast.

D.To make a joke about the man's comment.

听力原文:Almost all states in America have a state fair. They last for one, two or three w

听力原文: Almost all states in America have a state fair. They last for one, two or three weeks. The Indiana state fair is one of the largest and oldest state fairs in the United States. It is held every summer. It started in 1852. Its goals were to educate, share ideas, and present Indiana's best products. The cost of a single ticket to enter the fair was 20 cents.

During the early 1930's, officials of the fair ruled that the people could attend by paying with something other than money. For example, farmers brought a bag of grain in exchange for a ticket. With the passage of time, the fair has grown and changed a lot, but it is still one of Indiana's most celebrated events. People from all over Indiana and from many other states attend the fair. They can do many things at the fair.

They can watch the judging of the price cows, pigs, and other animals, they can see sheep getting their wool cut, and they can learn how that wool is made into clothing; they can watch cows giving birth. In fact, people can learn about the animals they would never see except at the fair. The fair provides a chance for the farming communities to show its skills and farm products. For example, visitors might see the world's largest apple, or the tallest sunflower plant.

Today, children and adults at the fair can play new computer games, or attend more traditional games of skill. They can watch performances put on by famous entertainers. Experts say such fairs are important, because people need to remember that they're connected to the earth and its products, and they depend on animals for many things.

(30)

A.For people to share ideas and show farm products.

B.For officials to educate the farming community.

C.For farmers to exchange their daily necessities.

D.For farmers to celebrate their harvests.

听力原文: "But I just paid $1.69 for this bottle of wine last week. How come the price is now $2.25? What's going on?"

There are at least three things going on that have caused the price of wine to rise. All have to do with the supply and demand factors of economics.

The first factor is that people are drinking more wine than ever before. This demand for more wine has increased overall wine sales in America at the rate of 15 percent a year.

The second factor is that the supply of wine has stayed relatively the same, which means that the same number of bottles is produced each year. Wine producers are trying to open up new land to grow more grapes. But in at least three wine-producing areas of the world France, Germany, and California new vineyards will not be available in the near future. Wines are produced in other countries, such as Italy, Spain and Australia, but none of these countries will be able to fill the demand for good wines.

The third factor is that costs of wine production are increasing. The men who make wine are asking for more money, and the machinery needed to press the grapes is becoming more expensive.

When the demand for something is greater than the supply, prices go up. When production costs, meaning the price of labor and machinery, rise, the producer adds this increase to the price of the wine.

(33)

A.The speaker is inquiring about the price.

B.The speaker is concerned about the price.

C.The speaker is bargaining with the dealer.

D.The speaker is complaining about the price.
