听力原文： When Colonel Harland Sanders retired at the age of 65,he had little to show for himself,except an old Caddie roadster,a $105 monthly pension check,and a recipe for chicken.

Knowing he couldn't live on his pension,he took his chicken recipe in hand,got behind the wheel of his van, and set out to make his fortune.His first plan was to sell his chicken recipe to restaurant owners, who would in rum pay him some money for every piece of chicken they sold--5 cents per chicken.The first restaurateur he called on turned him down.

So did the second.

So did the third.

In fact,the first 1008 sales calls Colonel Sanders made ended in rejection.Still,he continued to call on owners as he traveled across the USA,sleeping in his car to save money.Prospect number 1009 gave him his first"yes".

After two years of making daily sales he had signed up a total of five restaurants.Still the Colonel pressed on,knowing that he had a great chicken recipe and that someday the idea would catch on.

Of course,you know how the story ends.The idea DID catch on.By 1963 the Colonel had 600 restaurants across the country selling his secret recipe of Kentucky Fried Chicken with 11 herbs and spices.

What does the speaker say about Colonel Harland Sanders when he retired？

A．He had no pension.

B．He had a great car.

C．He was right at the age of 56.

D．He owned a recipe for chicken.

听力原文：One important cause of the generation gap is the opportunity that young people ha

听力原文： One important cause of the generation gap is the opportunity that young people have to choose their own lifestyles. In more traditional societies, when children grow up,. they are expected to live in the same area as their parent, to marry people that their parents know and approve of, and often to continue the family occupation. In our society, young people often travel great distances for their education, move out of the family home at an early age, marry--or live with people whom their parents have never met, and choose occupations different from those of their parents.

In our upwardly mobile society, parents often expect their children to do better than they did: to find better jobs, to make more money, and to do all the things that they were unable to do. Often, however, the ambitions that parents have for their children are another cause of the diversion between them. Often, they discover that they have very little in common with each other.

Finally, the speed at which changes take place in our society is another cause of the gap between the generations. In a traditional culture, elderly people are valued for their wisdom, but in our society, the knowledge of a lifetime may become dated overnight. The young and the old seem to live in two very different worlds, separated by different skills and abilities.

A．one.

听力原文：M: So, you're an architect.W: Yes.M: Do you work for a public or a private organi

听力原文：M: So, you're an architect.

W: Yes.

M: Do you work for a public or a private organization, or you're self-employed, that is working on you own？

W: I'm working for a private designing construction company.

M: How did you start your career？

W: (23)I started it with the government.

M: Oh, did you？ What made you decide to work for the government？

W: Well, it was a matter of chances, really. I saw an advertisement for a vacant position in the newspaper and I thought "why don't you try it". In fact, I have no preferences where I work, public or private.

M: And do you still have this idea, or…

W: More or less, yes. Although I'm now working with a private firm, I worked for the government for about three years. It was all right. Of course, there is the bureaucracy that one has to put up with but that's no that bad. If you don't mind bureaucratic wheels turning slowly and things not being as efficient.

M: Mm, ha, and what made you leave the public sector？

W: (25)Money mainly. You see, I got married, and my husband doesn't work, and we wanted to start a family right away. So we thought it might be better if I moved to the private sector. (24)This is why it's hard for me to be self-employed, because self-employed work has a disadvantage that there may be time or a period of time when you are unemployed.

(20)

A．A newspaper.

B．The government.

C．A construction firm.

D．A private company.

听力原文：A house is the most expensive thing most people will ever buy. Very few people ha

听力原文： A house is the most expensive thing most people will ever buy. Very few people have enough money of their own to buy a home, so they have to borrow money from a bank. Borrowing money from a bank to buy a house is called taking a mortgage. The hank usually lends money or gives a mortgage for 25 years. This means that the person who borrows has 25 years to pay back the money. The bank lends this money with interest, and the borrower makes equal monthly payments to the hank until he has paid the mortgage. Houses are so expensive that many people nowadays have to borrow as much as $50,000. In other words, they will have a $50,000 mortgage.

How can you get a mortgage？ When you find a house you like, you go to a bank, sometimes it is necessary to go to a few banks, before applying for a mortgage at once. The bank will investigate your financial history and decide if they think you axe a good risk. They will want to know what kind of job you have. In addition, the banks will require a down payment. Depending on which state you live in, the bank may require as much as 30% of the price of the house as a down payment. The bank will then lend you the rest of the money to buy the house. Many people are never able to buy a house because they cannot save enough money for the down payment.

(30)

A．It means to rent a house for 25 years.

B．It means to buy an old house at a low price.

C．It means to borrow money from a bank to buy a house.

D．It means to borrow money from a friend to buy a house.

听力原文：M: Hi! Dr. Hyde？W: So, what seems to ha the problem today？M: Well, I just came in

听力原文：M: Hi! Dr. Hyde？

W: So, what seems to ha the problem today？

M: Well, I just came in for a check up and a dental cleaning.

W: Hum. Open up. Let's take a look.

M: Okay. Uh...

W: Hum. Wow! I've never seen one like this before. Let me try this.

M: Uhhh...Ouhhhh [Man screaming in pain].

W: Well, there is a major cavity in one of your wisdom teeth. Hasn't this given you any trouble？

M: Well, the tooth has been bothering me, and it sometimes hurts when I drink something cold. Does it look that bad？

W: Well, we're going to remove the decay, and then we'll either put a filling in, or if the decay is extensive, we can't repair it, we might have to put a crown on your tooth. Or as a last resort, we may have to extract the tooth.

M: Uh, well, that sounds painful!

W: Don't worry. I've done this once before. Nah, just relax.

M: Wait! Aren't you supposed to give me something to dull the pain？

W: Uh, Oh yeah. I almost forget. We can use a local anesthetic to minimize the discomfort you might feel. Or you can just grin and bear it.

M: Nah, nah, nah! Put me under! I can't stand pain, and I'd rather not be aware of what's going on. And, if I need a filling, can I get one that leeks like my other teeth？

W: If we can save the tooth with a filling, I recommend a high-strength silver alloy filling instead of a porcelain one. It'll probably last longer.

M: Okay, well, whatever. Let's get it over with.

W: Okay, pleasant dreams. Drill please.

(23)

A．He wanted to have a filling replaced.

B．He came in for a dental check up.

C．He came in for some dental advice.

D．He needed to have a tooth pulled.

听力原文： There are two factors which determine an individual's intelligence. The first is

the sort of brain he is born with. Human brains differ considerably, some being more capable than others. But no matter how good a brain the has to begin with, an individual will have a low order of intelligence unless ha has opportunities to learn. the second factor is what happens to the individual—the sort of environment in which he is reared. If an individual is handicapped environmentally, it is likely his brain will fail to develop and he will never attain the level of intelligence of which he is capable.

The importance of environment in determining an individual's intelligence can be demonstrated by the case history of the identical twins, Peter and Mark. The twins had identical brain at birth. When the twins were three months old, their parents died, and they were placed in different homes. Peter was reared by parents of low intelligence in an isolated community with poor educational opportunities. Mark was reared in the home of well-to-do parents who had been to college. He was sent to good schools, and given every opportunity to be stimulated intellectually. This environmental difference continued until the twins were in their late teens, when they were given tests to measure their intelligence. Mark's I. Q. was 125, twenty five points higher than the average and fully forty points higher than his identical brother.

(30)

A．Human brains differ considerably.

B．The brain a person is born with is important in determining his intelligence.

C．An environmentally handicapped person won't attain his due level of intelligence.

D．Environment is important in determining a person's intelligence.
