听力原文： A lot of people are familiar with the story of Brave Gelert, a dog that faithfully defended the prince's son, but which was then killed while it was fast asleep through a terrible misunderstanding. However, only a few people know that the story is really a pack of lies. Let me explain.

About a hundred or so years ago there was a hotel owner in Wales who was fed up with business being so bad. His hotel was stuck in the middle of nowhere and hardly anyone came to stay. Then, one day, he had an idea. A famous prince called Llewellyn had lived in the area during the Middle Ages and had been keen on dogs. This is hardly surprising as hunting was extremely popular at that time. So what he did was to make up the story of the brave and faithful Gelert and how he had been killed by his ungrateful master.

Of course, people would be far more likely to believe the story if there was something they could see. So one day, the hotel keeper went to the top of a high hill and built a sort of monument from the stones he found lying around, a friend of his, who was an accountant, helped him to construct it. The "tale" soon caught on and developed a life of its own. Afterwards, people came from far and wide to see the spot where the dog was buried. Needless to say, business became very good for the hotel owner.

Questions 26 to 29 are based on the passage you have just heard.

26. According to the tale, who killed the dog？

27. How did the owner of the hotel successfully improve his business？

28. To what purpose did the hotel owner build the stone monument？

29. Which could be the best title for this passage？

(33)

A．A hotel owner.

B．A famous accountant.

C．Its master.

D．The prince's son.

听力原文： When you take a walk in any of the cities in the West, you often see a lot of people walking dogs. It is still true that a dog is the most useful and faithful animal in the world, but the reasons why people keep a dog have changed. In the old days people used to train dogs to protect themselves against attacks by other beasts. And later they came to realize that a dog was not only useful for protection but willing to obey his master. For example, when people used dogs for hunting, the dogs would not eat what was caught without permission. But now people in the city need not protect themselves against attacks of animals. Why do they keep dogs, then？ Some people keep dogs to protect themselves from robbery. But the most important reason is for companionship. For a child, a dog is his best friend when he has no friends to play with. For young couples, a dog is their child when they have no children. For old couples, a dog is also their child when their real children have grown up. So the main reason why people keep dogs has changed from protection to friendship.

(33)

A．For protection against other animals.

B．For protection against other dogs.

C．Just for fun.

D．For the purpose of guarding the house.

听力原文： No one knows exactly why we sleep. But scientists have learned a lot about how we sleep, From sleep experiments, scientists have learned that there are four different stages of sleep.

When you first fall asleep, your heart starts to beat more slowly and your breathing slows down. If something wakes you, you might not think that you had been asleep. Some people call this kind of sleep dozing. Scientists call it Stage One sleep. Next, if you are not awakened, you drift into a deeper sleep. Your pulse and breathing become even slower than they were during Stage One sleep. But you can still be awakened quite easily. If you take a cat nap, you probably will not get any further than this stage of sleep, which is called Stage Two.

If you sleep longer than about twenty minutes, you go into the third stage of sleep. Your body is very relaxed. It would take a loud noise to wake you up.

You have probably heard of people who walk in their sleep. No one knows what makes people sleepwalk. But a person can sleepwalk only during Stage Four. This is the deepest kind of sleep. If someone wakes you up during stage four, you might feel very confused. It might take you a few minutes to get used to being awake.

(36)

A．Reasons for People's Sleeping.

B．Four Stages of Sleep.

C．Reasons for sleepwalking.

D．A Sleep Experiment.
