听力原文： Have you ever seen a movie in which a building was burnt down or a bridge was destroyed？ Have you seen films in which a train crashed or a ship sank into the ocean？ ff so, you may have wondered how these things could happen without harming the people in the film. The man who knows the answer is the special effects man. He has one of the most important jobs in the film industry. He may be ordered to create a flood, or to make a battlefield explode. But he may also be asked to create a special effect. It is much more exciting. Once a film director wanted some fish that were swimming in a big glass bowl to stop swimming suddenly while they were seen to stare at an actor. Then the director wanted, the fish to stop staring and swim away. But fish can't be ordered to do anything. It was quite a problem. The special effects man thought about this for a long time. The result was an ides for controlling the fish with the harmless use of electricity. First he applied electricity to the fish howl causing the fish to be absolutely still. Then he rapidly reduced the amount of electricity allowing the fish to swim away. Thus he got the humorous effect that the director wanted.

A．Historical development of filmmaking.
B．Making a special film about fishing.
C．Special man in film industry.
D．Special effects in filmmaking.
When, If Ever, Can Museums Sell Their Works？
The director of the art-rich yet cash-poor National Academy Museum in New York expected strong opposition when its board decided to sell two Hudson River School paintings for around ＄15 million.
The director, Carmine Branagan, had already approached leaders of two groups to which the academy belonged about the prospect. She knew that both the American Association of Museums (AAM) and Association of Art Museum Directors (AAMD) had firm policies against museums' selling off artworks because of financial hardship and were not going to make an exception.
Even so, she said, she was not prepared for the directors group's immediate response to the sale. In an e-mail message on Dec. 5 to its 190 members, it condemned the academy, founded in 1825, for "breaching one of the most basic and important AAMD's principles" and called on members "to suspend any loans of works of art to and any collaboration on exhibitions with the National Academy."
Branagan, who had by that time withdrawn her membership from both groups, said she "was shocked by the tone of the letter, like we had committed some crimes." She called the withdrawal of loans "a death knell (丧钟声)" for the museum, adding, "What the AAMD have done is basically shoot us while we're wounded."
Beyond shaping the fate of any one museum, this exchange has sparked larger questions over a principle that has long seemed sacred. Why, several experts ask, is it so wrong for a museum to sell art from its collection to raise badly-needed funds and now that many institutions are facing financial hardship, should the ban on selling art to cover operating costs be eased？
Lending urgency to the discussion are the efforts of the Museum of Contemporary Art in Los Angeles, which has one of the world's best collections of contemporary art but whose funds is said to have shriveled(萎缩) to ＄6 million from more than ＄40 million over the last nine years. Wouldn't it be preferable, some people asked this month, to sell a Mark Rothko painting or a couple of Robert Rauschenberg's legendary "combines" -- the museum owns 11 -- than to risk closing its doors. Finally, the museum announced ＄30 million donations by the billionaire Eli Broad last week that would prevent the sales of any artworks.
Yet defenders of the prohibition warn that such sales can irreparably (不能挽回地) damage an institution. "Selling an object is a knee-jerk (下意识的)act, and it undermines core principles of a museum," said Michael Conforti, president of the directors' association and director of the Clark Art Institute in Williams-town, Massachusetts. "There are always other options."
The sale of artwork from a museum's permanent collection, known as deaccessioning(博物馆收藏品等出售), is not illegal in the United States, provided that any terms accompanying the original donation of artwork are respected. In Europe, by contrast, many museums are state-financed and prevented by national law from deaccessioning.
But under the code of ethics of the American Association of Museums, the proceeds should be "used only for the acquisition, preservation, protection or care of collections." The code of the Association of Art Museum Directors is even stricter, specifying that funds should not be used "for purposes other than acquisitions of works of art for the collection."
Dorm Zaretsky, a New York lawyer who specializes in art cases, has sympathized with the National Academy, asking why a museum can sell art to buy more art but not to cover overhead costs or a much-needed education center. "Why should we automatically assume that buying art always justifies a deaccessioning, but that no other use of proceeds -- no matter how important to an institution's mission--ever can" he wrote.
Even Patty Gerstenblith, a law professor at DePaul University in Chicago kno
A．abundant in artworks
B．expecting strong resistance
C．abundant in money
D．selling three paintings
It has often been said that music is a global language. But the idea S1.______
music can bring cultures closer together by transporting listeners to a-
common realm seems somehow unusual. That is of course, unless you are S2.______
unfamiliar with the new genre(流派，风格)of music called "world music". S3.______
What is world music？ Giving the great diversity in category and style, S4.______
it is not surprising there is little agreement on exact what constitutes this S5.______
genre. It could be traditional music such like Afro-Caribbean rhythms, Cel- S6.______
tic fiddles, and reggae.
It includes Gregorian chants, Aborigine didgeridoo, or Tajikistani pop,
Salsa, samba, or Johnny Clegg and Savuka. Some musicologists argue that
all music are world music. After all, rock-and-roll traces back to Africa. S7.______
Record store employees, on other hand, will direct you to a specific section. S8.______
And the Billboard charts seem to define world music by artists who have
put a pop spin on traditional music.
Robert Browning, artistic director of the World Music Institute in New
York, describes world-music on a spectrum of music genres. At one end of
the spectrum you have classical or traditional "roots" music. On the other
hand, you have music that is a mix of sounds and instruments, more S9.______
often composed of Western artists. S10.______

听力原文： There are many famous museums throughout the world where people can enjoy art. Washington D.C. has the National Gallery of Art; Paris has the Louvre. Florida International University in Miami also displays art for people to see. And it does so without a building, or even a wall for its drawings and paintings.
Florida International University has opened what it says the first computer art museum in the United States. You don't have to visit the university to see the art. You just need a computer linked to a telephone.
You call the telephone number of a university computer and connect your own computer to it. All of the art is stored in the school computer. It is computer art, created electronically by artists on their own computers. In only a few minutes, your computer can receive and copy all the pictures and drawings.
Robert Shostak is director of the new computer museum. He says he started the museum because computer artists had no place to show their work.
A computer artist could only record his pictures electronically and send the records, or discs, to others to see on their computers. He could also put his pictures on paper. But to print good pictures on paper, the computer artist needed an expensive laser printer.
Robert Shostak says the electronic museum is mostly for art or computer students at schools and universities. Most of the pictures in the museum are made by students. Mister Shostak says the Florida International University museum will make computer art more fun for computer artists because more people can see it. He says artists enjoy their work much more if they can have an audience. And the great number of home computers in America could mean a huge audience for the electronic museum.
