听力原文:Today school children in many countries have high rates of failing eyesight. Two

听力原文: Today school children in many countries have high rates of failing eyesight. Two methods have been proposed to prevent near-sightedness, one Western and one Chinese. The Western method was developed by Mr. Bates, a British actor, in the early part of last century. He trained people to relax their eyes frequently during a period of intense reading. His methods included covering open eyes with the palms of the hands and looking at distant objects by moving the eyes from side to side instead of staring at them. Bates also encouraged school children to look frequently at a calendar on the wall of the classroom to relax their eyes. A famous British writer even wrote a book on the beneficial effects of the Bates' method for his vision.

The traditional Chinese method involves pressing certain points around the eyes with the fingers. This also relaxes excessive tension in eye muscles, it is best done by doctors trained in traditional Chinese medicine, but it can also be done by students themselves.

Teachers and parents should encourage pupils to relax their eyes frequently while reading and studying.

听力原文:Hong Kong is a city inclined toward red; in Thailand the color is yellow; India l

听力原文: Hong Kong is a city inclined toward red; in Thailand the color is yellow; India leans toward reds and oranges. To an Asian colors are infused with beliefs, religious and otherwise. To the Chinese, red is very lucky, but to Thais yellow brings good fortune. The combination of blue, black, and white is, to the Chinese, suggestive of a funeral.

Many Western businessmen believe that most Asians have become Westernized in their outlook, but Westernization and education do not usually completely replace the culture and beliefs of an Asian's forefathers. They tend instead to make a more intricate alliance between his culture and religious bonds. The approach required to sell an Asian any commodity must follow the basic formula of catering to national pride, acknowledging equality, and understanding the Asian's beliefs.

Color is a touchy thing. Advertisers are advised to take into consideration the religious and superstitious beliefs connected with colors before using them. The color combinations of green and purple are acceptable throughout Asia, but using one or both of these colors is no guarantee of sales, as a prominent manufacturer of water-recreation products learned in Malaysia. its home office received heated requests from its Malaysian distributors to stop shipments on all products colored green. The distributors reported that numerous customers associated the color green with the jungle and illness.

(30)

A.The symbolic significance of a specific color.

B.The subtle cultural connotation of colors.

C.The influence of Westernization on Asian people's outlook.

D.Expensive lessons Western businessmen learned in Asia.

听力原文:For those of you who were born in the year of the pig, good luck and much success

听力原文: For those of you who were born in the year of the pig, good luck and much success! This is your year.

When talking to a Westerner, however, you've got to be a little careful when you talk about pigs. Chinese people view the pig as a smart and lucky animal. Western ideas tend to be a little more negative.

A pig in the West is seen as a dirty, lazy, and fat animal. If anyone ever called you a pig, you wouldn't be smiling. When a person doesn't like someone, sometimes he will call that person a pig.

If you ever meet a Westerner who was born in the year of the pig, don't say "Oh, you're a pig!" Most Westerners will be understanding. They will be sure that you made some kind of a mistake. However, don't take any chances. You might just offend someone who does not share your positive ideas about pigs.

(30)

A.Because they worship pigs best of all.

B.Because they consider pigs as bad animals.

C.Because they aren't used to talking about pigs.

D.Because they don' t like the topic about pigs at all.

听力原文:Where did the term Piggy Bank come from? Today the simple piggy bank is seen ever

听力原文: Where did the term Piggy Bank come from? Today the simple piggy bank is seen everywhere as the symbol of saving and frugality, for putting away funds for a rainy day, or building a nest egg for life's sudden money needs, such as paying college expenses, buying a home, or financing retirement. But why a pig? Dogs bury bones for a rainy day. Why not a dog shaped bank for coins? Squirrels are well known hoarders too and we talk about squirreling away valuables. Why not a bank in the shape of a squirrel? Well nevertheless, for 300 years, children's banks have been imitation pigs with slots in the back. Charles Bernardy, the author of Extraordinary Origins of Everyday Things, tells how the symbol came about by coincidence. According to Bernardy, during the middle ages, mined metal was scarce and expensive, therefore was rarely used in the manufacture of household utensils. The type of orange clay, known of pygg, spelt pygg, was more abundant and economical throughout western Europe. It was used in making dishes, cups, pots and jars. And so these earthenware items were referred to as pygg. Frugal people saved cash in kitchen pots and jars. Although a pygg jar was not originally shaped like a pig, the name persisted. However by the 18th century, pygg, p-y-g-g jar became pig, pig jar or pig bank. Potters had simply begun to cast the bank in the shape of its common name. In the United States, the popular piggy bank has always been a symbol of saving money.

(30)

A.History of money.

B.Anecdote of a pig.

C.Economics in western Europe.

D.The term Piggy Bank.

听力原文:The majority of people, about nine out of ten, are fight-handed. Up until recentl

听力原文: The majority of people, about nine out of ten, are fight-handed. Up until recently, people who were left-handed were considered old, and once children showed this tendency they were forced to use their right hands. Today, left-hand- edness is generally accepted but it is still a disadvantage in a world where most people are fight-handed. For example, most tools are still designed for right-handed people.

In sports, by contrast, doing things with the left hand or foot is often an advantage. Throwing, kicking or hitting from the "wrong" side may confuse opponents, who are accustomed to dealing with the majority of players who are right-handed.

In the past, in most Western societies, children were often forced to use their right hands, especially to write. In some cases, the left hand was tied behind the child's back so that it could not be used. If, in the future, they are allowed to choose, there will certainly be more left handed people, and probably fewer depressed people as a result of being forced to use their right hands.

(30)

A.They thought them strange.

B.They considered they were funny.

C.They thought them clever.

D.They considered they were creative.

听力原文:About a hundred years ago, the people of London were amazed to see an extraordina

听力原文: About a hundred years ago, the people of London were amazed to see an extraordinary boat come sailing up the Thames River The boat had four-cornered sails made of mats, big wooden eyes on the bow, and fantastic pictures on the stern.

It turned out to be the Keyling, an eighty-foot junk from Foochow in distant China. The junk had sailed round the Cape of Good Hope at the southern tip of Africa, up the western coast of Africa, and finally to England. The voyage had covered fifteen thousand miles-- more than half the distance round the world.

Although it was unexpected, the Keyling's voyage to London was no accident. She carried a cargo of silk and ivory, as well as a number of exotic gifts from the emperor of China, destined for Queen Victoria.

People had always mistakenly thought of the Chinese as landlubbers. From centuries of trading and seafaring in perilous seas, however, the Chinese had learned to build good boats and to sail them well. The Keyling proved that a Chinese junk could sail anywhere in the world.

(30)

A.By sailing round Europe.

B.By sailing completely round the world.

C.By sailing through the Arctic Ocean.

D.By sailing round the tip of Africa.
