听力原文: I'll still be working. But things will be different. With any luck, I'll be earning more money. The most important thing will be the job itself, and how interesting it is. I mean, I hope I'll be able to choose the kind of job I do and 5vho I work for. Of course, I' d like to have more money and more authority than I have now. But I don' t think that' s the only thing in life. What I really want is to be more independent than I am now, to have more control over my own life. Perhaps open a small restaurant, or write a book or something like that. I' m not really sure if I'll ever have children, or even if I want to be married. It all depends. Of course, if I meet the right person, anything could happen. But I won' t feel that my life is empty and meaningless if I' m still living alone ten years, or even twenty years from now. Not at all. My mother is always saying there is nothing like a good relationship. But I am not so sure. There is nothing worse than a really bad one, either.

A.Her unique experience.
B.Her future prospects.
C.Her favourite job.
D.Her lonely life.
When I was a teenager, I felt that I was just young and uncertain—that I was a new boy in a huge school, and I would have been very pleased to be regarded as something so interesting as a problem. (34)For one thing, being a problem gives you a certain identity, and that is one of the things the young are busily engaged in seeking.
I find young people exciting. They have an air of freedom, and they don't have a dreary commitment to mean ambitions or love of comfort. They are not anxious social climbers, and they have no devotion to material things. All this seems to me to link them with life, and the origins of things. It's as if they were, in some sense, cosmic beings in violent and lovely contrast with us suburban creatures. An that is in my mind when I meet a young person. He may be conceited, ill-mannered, presumptuous or fatuous, but I do not turn for protection to dreary cliches about respect of elders—as if mere age were a reason for respect. (35)I accept that we are equals, and I will argue with him, as an equal. if I think he is wrong.
(30)
A.Old people think of the young as "a problem".
B.Old people create this "problem" of age difference.
C.Old people have a past; young people have a future.
D.Old people and young people forget they are all human beings.
Doctors have their own special sleep problems. Residents are famously short of sleep. It is not unusual for. them to work 40 hours in a row without rest. They are not in the least worried about it, confident they can still deliver the highest quality of medical care. But an article in the Journal of the American Medical Association points out that in the morning after 24 hours of sleeplessness, a person' s motor performance is comparable to that of someone who is drunk. Curiously, surgeons who believe that operating under the influence of alcohol is grounds for sacking often don' t think twice about operating without enough sleep.
"I could tell you horror stories," says Jaya Agrawal, president of the American Medical Student Association, which runs a website for residents. Some are terrifying." I was operating after being up for over 36 hours," one writes. "I literally fell asleep standing up and nearly planted my face into the wound."
"Practically every surgical resident I know has fallen asleep at the wheel driving home from work," writes another. "I know of three who have hit parked cars. Another hit a 'Jersey gate' on the New Jersey Expressway, going 105kin/h."
"Your own patients have become the enemy," writes a third, because they are "the one thing that stands between you and a few hours of sleep."
The U.S. controls the hours of pilots and truck drivers. But until such a system is in place for doctors, patients are on their own. If you're worded about the people treating you or a loved one, you should feel free to ask how many hours of sleep they have had and if more rested staffers are available.
Sleep is a funny thing because ______.
A.the longer one sleeps, the less sound sleep he gets
B.the more sleep one gets, the more likely a stroke occurs
C.many people stick to about eight hours of sleep to stay fine
D.many people who sleep six hours a night still feel energetic in the day
听力原文:M: Have you done the lab experiment for physiology yet--the one on taste?
W: Yeah, it was kind of fun--mapping the taste buds. Didn't you think so?
M: I'm doing it this afternoon. How long will it take?
W: It went pretty quickly--under an hour, anyway. See, first you mix up the four solutions.
M: You take water and add either sugar, lemon juice, salt, or... uh... What was it?
W: Bitter quinine.
M: That's it... uh... then what?
W: Then all you have to do is taste each sample and describe where each flavor seems most intense.
M: Is that hard?
W: Not really. One thing to remember though--not all the taste buds are on the tongue.
M: Right. I'll keep that in mind. And thanks for going over this with me. Maybe we could talk about this after I've tried it--we could get a pizza or something.
W: Great. Give me a call.
