听力原文：M: Hi, Jenny. Come on in.
W: Yeah, I stopped by to see if you were still looking for a roommate to share your house.
M: Yeap. I sure am. Ever since I cut back on my working hours to go to school, I've been really strapped for cash.
W: Oh.
M: Hey, let me show you the place. Uh, here's the living room.
W: Oh. It looks like you could use a new carpet...and those stains？
M, Well. I've had a few problems with some former roommates. I know it needs to be cleaned, but I just don't have the money to do it right now.
W: Oh. And what about the kitchen？
M: Right this way. Look. It's completely furnished with all the latest appliances, except...
W: What？
M: Well, the refrigerator door is broken...a little bit...and it won't shut all the way. It needs fixing, but don't worry. I've just found a good way by pushing a box against it to keep it shut.
W: Hmm. Great.
M: Ah. It isn't that bad.
W: Well, how about the bathroom？
M: Well...
W: No, no. Don't tell me. The toilet is clogged or the sink has a few leaks.
M: No, those work fine, but, uh, the tile in the shower needs to be replaced, and the window needs fixing.
W: Let me see. The tile...what？ The window？ Where's the window pane？
M: Well, that's another slight problem. Pre put up a piece of cardboard to keep out the rain and snow, and if it gets a little cold, you can always turn up the heat. Well, you used to until the central heating went out.
W: Hey, I think I've seen enough. I can't believe you've survived under these conditions.
M: So, what do you think？ You really can't beat a place like this for $450 a month. So it has its problems, but we can fix those.
W: Uh, no, thank you. I think I've seen enough.

M: You know this isn't the first time that people are saying Brazil will be a great economic power. The same thing was said over a hundred year ago. But it didn't happen.
W: Yes, but you must admit the world's a very different place now.
M: Of course. In fact I believe there's maybe some truth in the prediction this time around. First of all, though, we must remember the problems facing Brazil at the moment.
W: Such as...？
M: There's an enormous gap between the rich and the poor in this country. In Sal Paulo, you can see shopping malls full of designer goods right next door to the slam areas without proper water and electricity supplies. A lot of work needs to be done to help people in those areas improve their lives.
W: What needs to be done？
M: Education, for example. For Brazil to be successful, we need to offer education to all Brazilians. Successful countries like South Korea and Singapore have excellent education systems. Brazil needs to learn from these countries.
W: So you are hopeful for the future.
M: As I said earlier, I'm hopeful. This isn't an easy job. We need to make sure that these important opportunities for Brazil aren't wasted, as they were in the past.

B．It will be a major economic power by the mid-21st century.
C．It is a resolute advocate of the anti-global movement.
D．It will face challenges unprecedented in its history.
W: Really？ Don't you feel it enjoyable and quite beneficial？
M: No, I just feel it's a waste of time.
W: I can't see eye to eye with you. No matter what you think, I still believe class discussion is a good way of teaching and learning. As you know, class discussion can get us students more involved in what is being studied rather than sit there and listen all the time. We have a chance to speak our minds and share what we know about the subjects. Don't you feel the same way？
M: Well, in a way what you said is true, but I'd rather listen to what the professor knows about the subjects, for he is expected to be better informed. I don't think there is any point in wasting our time listening to other students who are as ignorant as us.
W: We may be ignorant in many aspects compared to the professor. But our opinions and experiences are also worth listening to and learning from. As the proverb goes, four eyes see more than two.
M: Sure, I understand many hands make light work. But some students are often dominant and aggressive in the discussion and do not respect others' right to speak. I hate those self-important and irritating fellows.
W: I admit there are such moments in class discussion. But we should do justice to class discussion though some students fail to behave themselves and focus on the topic.
(23)
A．It wastes time.
B．It is enjoyable.
C．It benefits the class.
D．It is good but needs improving.
M：(19)To begin with, you should ask yourself a question, that is, what does your audience need and want？ It's better to question yourself before the speech．
W：Why do we need to know their needs and wants？
M：(21)If you are a public speaker Lit is absolutely essential to know how to capture and maintain the interest of your audience, which means you have to know what they want to know and what they want to hear．
W：You mean we should pay special attention to the content of the speech，right？
M：Yes．If you elaborate on facts and figures that everyone is already familiar with，then it is quite possible that you will actually lose the attention of those who are listening to your presentation．
W：What should we do then？
M：(20)Many successful speakers will summarize that part or add some different viewpoints to it．This is a good way to increase their level of understanding of the topic．If your audience cannot follow your speech．it's quite possible that they'll leave or doze off．
W：How about body language？ I see many speakers use a lot of hand gestures．
M：Not only hand gestures，but also facial expression，body movement and even voice changes．It is always important to remember that sometimes，how you say something will have a larger impact than what you say．
(20)
A．Ask himself a lot of questions.
B．Know his own needs and wants.
C．Figure out what his audience is interested in.
D．Put his notes in order ahead.
M: Well, although nine out of ten parents use smacking as a punishment, half of them feel guilty about using it. The other half do smack their children and think they are right. It seems most parents we talked to smack their children more than once a week and 5% actually smack their children every day.
W: The report suggests that parents should make more efforts to understand their children and that smacking isn't always the best solution if children are naughty.
M: Yes, parents should try harder to understand how their children feel when they react in certain ways. For example they might be jealous of a new baby brother or a sister or they might feel insecure. Any number of things might make the child react badly.
W: So in those kinds of situations it would be better not to smack children？
M: Yes, obviously because when a child's behaving badly, it needs love and attention, not anger and violence. I think parents should think really carefully before they smack their children.
W: Maybe parents should find an opportunity to communicate with their children.
M: That's right.

A．Five out of nine.
B．Nine out of ten.
C．One out of ten.
D．Five out of eight.
听力原文：W: Hi, Tom. How's it going these days？
M: Fine. Where are you heading？
W: I'm on my way home from work.
M: I didn't know you had a job.
W: Yeah, [19] I work part-time at the library because I really have a lot of spare time this semester.
M: What did you do there？
W: Well, [20] I work in the information, giving suggestions to those looking for reference books. Sometimes when it really gets busy, I also help the librarians categorize the books. Have you got a job, Tom？
M: [21] I really want to, but I do have a hard time with the reading list and the courses I signed up for this term. Well, it seems that you work there every day.
W: Yeah, I think that's the trouble. There are times when I get pretty tired of answering different questions. But a job is a job.
M: I guess every job has its drawbacks. But today I do need some of your suggestions. I wonder if this book fits me.
W: Well, let me see. [22] I think the book has little to do with the topic of your paper. I mean you plan to write the present conditions of the Chinese minorities, but this book is about all the minorities in the world. I think it's too general.
M: Well, I'm afraid so. I think I have to look for another one. Thank you anyway.
(4)
A．She needs extra money.
B．She has much spare time.
C．She wants to buy many books.
D．She has to write term papers.
M: Well, you're obviously not aware the government is spending money on some forms of public transport. For example, some train services have been improved. But most people want to use their cars, so the government needs to spend most money on improving the roads.
W: Why not make people who use the roads pay a bit more to discourage people from using their cars？
M: I really can't agree with you there. It just isn't fair to make driving something that only rich people can afford. Many people need to use their cars and they're dependent on them, particularly those in the country.
W: Can we do something to make people stop using their cars？
M: In a modem society you just can't do so. The whole economy would collapse.
W: So your opinion is...
M: To improve roads will help people get to work faster, so people spend less time in their cars and of course this therefore causes less pollution. That's the only realistic answer.
(23)
A．Too many private cars.
B．Too many buses.
C．Too many trains.
D．To many taxis.
s and established and supervised all facets of health policy.Along with a system of national,provincial, and local facilities,the ministry regulated a network of industrial and state enterprise hospitals and other facilities covering the health needs of workers of those enterprises.In 1981 this additional network provided approximately 25 percent of the country's total health services.
Currently, about two and a half million young people a year leave high school or college, with little or no idea of what to do with their lives. I estimate that upwards of 50 percent of our young people now in school or college have no real goals toward which to aim, and that they have very little information or help for establishing those goals and pursuing them systematically.
There may have been a time when we could afford twelve or sixteen or more years of formal education without work-related purpose. The swiftly moving technological and social evolution no longer has a place for the unskilled or unschooled.
There are unfilled jobs all over the country. Yet, 17 percent of our under-twenty age group are unemployed, many of them on welfare. More than 30 percent of our minority young people of this age group were unemployed. Virtually none of these young people had the benefits of career education or the traditional technical education available in many schools. Is it any wonder that student's unrest is the result of the unchanging institutional codes that have failed to make learning useful or meaningful for those who now want more realistic teaching and learning than the system offers？
Education, I repeat, is not solely a matter of equipping students for jobs. The heart of the learning process involves sciences. It is the way a man's mind works, and not just what he can do with his hands, that gives quality and purpose to life. But I see no conflict between the virtues of liberal education and career development. In fact, our neglect of career development in recent years has done damage to the total educational needs of both the individual and the nation.
From the passage we can infer that ______.
A．most adults in work force of the United States are skillful workers
B．American society is short of skillful workers
C．most schools provide technical education
D．the purpose of education is to learn sciences
