听力原文： In the United States, many people once lived in large two-or three-story homes. Today, many people would like to live in such houses, but usually they cannot. They don't have enough money to buy them, even to make the first payment. So many people rent from month to month. But some Americans really want to live in a house of their own. So they build their own houses, or they buy a house that is situated in the area where houses are cheaper. It is better to live in the bad part of town, they say, than not to live in a house at all. They can also buy an old house and redesign it; then they decorate it with old style. furniture. Sometimes they can make the house more beautiful than a new one. Usually it is not difficult for people to find an old home to buy. Many old people decide they don't need a big home after their children leave. So they sell their house, and move into a comfortable apartment.
But when people move into a house, they sometimes have problems. Homeowners have to do their own maintenance. For example, if the roof leaks, one cannot ask the landlord to fix it. On the other hand, people can redesign their houses in any way they want without having to be afraid of being thrown out by the landlord.

听力原文： Why do people smoke？
One reason is that people become addicted to cigarettes. The addictive substance in cigarettes is nicotine. When people smoke, the nicotine goes right into the blood stream and makes people feel relaxed. A smoker's body gets accustomed to the nicotine and if he stops smoking he feels nervous. Many smokers try to stop smoking but because of the addiction to nicotine they feel so uncomfortable that they often find it too difficult to stop.
Another reason is that people simply enjoy smoking. Having a cigarette for many people means taking a break. For some people smoking becomes part of their daily life. Many people enjoy smoking because it gives them something to do with their hands.
Many people also like the taste of tar in cigarettes. However, it is the tar that causes cancer. While governments and health experts have tried to get people to give up smoking entirely, cigarette manufacturers have tried to keep selling them by producing cigarettes with less tar. Many people in western countries have welcomed these cigarettes since they find it hard to stop smoking but they want to reduce the risk to their health.

听力原文： In recent years, many Americans of both sexes and various ages have become increasingly interested in improving their bodies. (29) They have become more devoted to physical fitness. Many persons have a strong desire to be more physically fit.
By nature, Americans are enthusiastic, and energetic about bobbies or pastimes. And now many of them apply this enthusiasm, optimism, and energy to
running. (30) As a result, there are more running clubs to join and numerous books and magazines to read about running.
The desire for American people to be physically fit could probably be explained by a "passion" for good health. The high rate of heart attacks in the 1960s has caused an increase of interest in improving the health condition of human body. Middle-aged men especially suffer from heart attacks. Thus, they are one group strongly interested in taking more physical exercise. (31) In fact, many doctors often encourage their patients to become more physically active, especially those who have inactive jobs. It is quite interesting to note that the rate of heart attacks began to decrease between 1972 and 1974 and it is still decreasing now.
It seems that physical fitness has now become a new "love" of Americans. But will it last very long？ Nobody knows. Only time will tell—or until another "new passion" comes along and takes its place.
29. Why are Americans so interested in physical exercise？
30.What happens when American people apply great enthusiasm in running？
31.What kinds of patients are especially encouraged to take part in physical exercise？
(4)
A．Because of their hobbies and pastimes.
B．Because of their enthusiasm for sports.
C．Because of their fear of heart attacks.
D．Because of their strong desire for good health.
"How was your weekend？"
This question comes up at workplaces all over the United States every Monday morning as people greet each other. It is another way of saying, "How did you spend your leisure time？"
In the Unites States the way people spend their leisure time is an important part of their identity. Perhaps everybody does nearly the same thing all day in the office or the factory, but leisure time is what makes people distinct and reveals who they are.
For many people, leisure time means going somewhere -- to a museum, a concert, a restaurant, or a baseball game. Or it means doing something such as playing volleyball, backpacking, swimming, singing in a chorus (合唱), or playing in a park with their children. For other people, free time means staying home with wonderful sources of entertainment, such as VCR, stereo or cable TV with dozens of channels. Others pursue creative activities such as cooking, gardening, and home improvement. The latest stay-at, home activity is "surfing (冲浪) the net" -- that is, looking for information and entertainment on the Internet.
In the United States, leisure time is big business. Enormous amounts of money are spent by competing enterprises that make and sell the goods and services that people use in their free time. In fact, shopping itself is an important leisure time activity. Spending a day at a giant mall has become, for some people, as interesting as spending the day at museum or amusement park.
People in the United States are ultimately not much different from others in what they do in their leisure time. The real difference may lie in the energy, time, money, and sheer enthusiasm that they devote to it.
Why do Americans often greet each other by asking "How did you spend your leisure time？"
A．Because they are interested in the different pastime activities.
B．Because leisure time is what makes people different from each other.
C．Because they are bored with the job they have done for the whole week.
D．Because everybody does the same thing all day long.
More than half the American students go abroad study in Europe, though fewer than in the past. Students have shown growing interest in Asia, Latin America, Africa and the Middle East. (30)The top three major fields of study of Americans studying abroad are the social sciences, business and management, and humanities.
Since 2001, New York University has been sending more students abroad than any other campus in the United States. It offers classes in Argentina, China, Ghana and several countries in Europe.
(31)Ayla Schermer of Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, is a nineteen-year-old business major entering her second year at N. Y. U. She wants to study in another country for the spring semester beginning in January, but she hasn't decided which country to go to. The classes will cost more than 18,000 dollars, but that does not include transportation or housing.
The strength of the euro against the dollar makes programs in Europe more costly than those in Argentina, for example. But Chris Nicolussi, student services director in the Office of Global Programs at N. Y. U., says the university has not seen any drop in the popularity of its European programs. He did say, however, that more students are interested in low cost activities organized by the university during their time abroad.
(30)
A．Because they intend to have a romance in foreign countries.
B．Because they desire to gain international experience.
C．Because they hope to get a chance of touring.
D．Because they thought of earning more money abroad.
