听力原文: The games of a culture can help us understand a great deal about their history, religion, and belief system. The Indians revealed a great deal about themselves by playing games. Almost all Indians, regardless of their age, gender, or physical condition, played games.

Women played games as much as men, but they usually played separately from the men and had different games. Children also played games. As a matter of fact, they often played the same games that their parents enjoyed.

Most of the games had a religious meaning. Many of the tribes used the games to train warriors and to win honors. As the years wore on, that meaning was lost but the game continued to be played.

Many Indians enjoyed shooting arrows as a sport. They used many varieties of targets, including pieces of bark, women grass, or an arrow stuck in a tree. Quieter amusements included games of chance. For example, pieces of cloth would be used to cover various items determined by one person. The other person would randomly choose one of the hidden items. His or her choice would reveal their past as well as their future. Other popular games were guessing games. For instance, it would require a group to guess the number of rocks in a certain area. Then they would count the actual number and rank the people who guessed according to how close they came to the actual number.

(30)

A.They played the same games as men.

B.They played games as much as men.

C.They played games with men.

D.They did not play games.

听力原文: Tennis was one of the original sports played at the modern Olympic Games which were held in Athens, Greece in 1896, and it lasted until the 1924 Games in Paris. Later tennis was dropped out from the Olympic Games from 1924 to 1968 due to the following reasons: the formats and the rules of the game were changed, lack of participants, unsuitable facilities, the resistance to the notion of posting an International Tennis Federation representative on the International Olympic Committee, mid a clash of dates with Wimbledon. (Wimbledon known as the Wimbledon Tournament is still one of the most celebrated sporting events in the world.) Philippe Chatrier, the President of the International Tennis Federation, lobbied for the sport to return to the Olympics for years but was unsuccessful. In 1968, tennis finally became non-medal demonstration competition at the Olympic Games. In 1988, tennis returned to the Olympic Games as an official sport. Olympic gold medals have been awarded in four events: men's and women's singles and men's and women's doubles.

In the past, tennis was not popular at all. But it is getting more and more accepted in China in recent years. Now China has several best players of the world. China is going to launch a new ATP (Association of Tennis Professionals) men's tennis tournament next September in order to prepare for the 2008 Olympics.

(30)

A.Because the equipment was unstable.

B.Because the roles of the game were altered.

C.Because the players of tennis were disliked.

D.Because the date was different from the Wimbledon.

听力原文:The twenty-third Olympic Games were held in Los Angeles and, like every other Oly

听力原文: The twenty-third Olympic Games were held in Los Angeles and, like every other Olympic Games, they represented a contest of mind, muscle, and athletic determination. The use of high technology, however, showed increasing significance in the staging of the event and helped set an example for staging future events.

Unlike the Olympics of the past, the Olympics are not just a race for gold anymore. They have also become a race for computer technology. Playing the massive event, as any host can tell you, requires a technology plan and organization that brings hundreds of countries together. In the twenty-third Games, for example, computers were used to keep track of schedules, accounts, transportation, and ticketing for more than 43,000 Olympic employees and volunteers. This was not an easy task.

A sophisticated electronic message system, moreover, helped keep the 12,000 or so journalists up-to-date on results. Due to this system, they were able to know about and broadcast to the world the judges' final decisions usually within a minute's time. This message system also allowed traffic controllers to convey traffic reports more efficiently, so that the usually confused Los Angeles highways became easy to navigate. Computers and other high-tech tools were also used to train American athletes by analyzing and evaluating performances. This- computer marvelously assisted the athletes in identifying weaknesses and suggesting ways to improve.

(30)

A.The use of high technology.

B.Being held in a big city in the U. $. A..

C.Earning a lot of money by advertising the goods.

D.Training all the athletes who were to participate in the game by using computers.

听力原文: A few months ago, [32]a team of interviewers were sent to schools to find out why children are prejudiced against science. Their answer provided this surprising picture of a typical scientist: they thought [33]a scientist is a rather dull person who spends all day working in a laboratory, wearing a white coat and making things that smell bad. They thought that scientists usually aren't very interesting and don't talk about anything but science. They don't play games well and they aren't attractive to the opposite sex. They also did not realize that women are as capable of becoming scientists as men.

On the other hand, [34]an art graduate is seen as a much livelier person. Arts graduates are thought to have a better sense of humor, to be interested in sports and pop music and to be considered attractive. When you understand these misconceptions which children have, it is only logical that most of them want to study arts rather than science.

(33)

A.Scientists.

B.Art graduates.

C.Children.

D.Women.

听力原文:In ancient Greece athletic festivals were very important and had strong religious

听力原文: In ancient Greece athletic festivals were very important and had strong religious associations. The Olympic athletic festival, held every four years in honor of Zeus, eventually lost its local character, be came first a national event, and then, after the rules against foreign competitors had been abolished, international. No one knows exactly how far back the Olympic Games go, but some official records date from 776 B. C.

The Games took place in August on the plain by Mount Olympus. Many thousands of spectators gathered from all parts of Greece, but no married woman was admitted even as a spectator. Slaves, women and dishonored people were not allowed to compete. Records show that the evening of the third day was devoted to sacrificial offerings to the heroes of the day, and the fourth day, that of the full moon, was set aside as a holy day. On the sixth and last day, all the victors were crowned with holy garlands of wild olive from a sacred wood. So great was the honor that the winner of the foot race gave his name to the year of his victory. How their results compared with modern standards, we unfortunately have no means of telling.

After an uninterrupted history of almost 1,200 years, the Games were abolished in A.D. 394 be cause of their pagan origin. It was a great many years before there was another such international athletic gathering. The Greek institution was brought back into existence in 1896 and the first small meeting took place in Athens. After the 1908 London Olympics, success was re-established and nations sent their best representatives.

Today, the Games are held in different countries in turn. The Olympics start with the arrival in the stadium of a torch, lighted on Mount Olympus by the sun's rays. It is carried by a succession of runners to the stadium. The torch symbolizes the continuation of the ancient Greek athletic ideals, and it burns throughout the Games until the closing ceremony.

(33)

A.in the seventh century A. D.

B.certainly before 700 B. C.

C.over three thousand years ago

D.a thousand years ago
