听力原文：Crime has its own cycles，a magazine reported some years ago. Police records show

听力原文： Crime has its own cycles，a magazine reported some years ago. Police records show a surprising relation between changes in the season and crime patterns.

The pattern of crime has changed very little over a long period of years. Murder reaches its high during July and August，as do other violent attacks. Murder，in addition，is more than seasonal；it is a weekend crime. It is also a nighttime crime: 62 percent of murders are committed between 6 P. m. and 6 a. m. One is most likely to be robbed between 6 P. m. and 2 a. m. on a Saturday night in December，January，or February. Except for one strange statistic，May is the least criminal month of all.

Apparently our intellectual season cycles are completely different from our criminal patterns. Professor Huntington made a lot of studies to discover the seasons when people read serious books，attend scientific meetings，and make the highest scores on examinations. In all examples，he found a spring peak and an autumn peak separated by a summer low. On the other hand，Professor Huntington's studies showed that June is the peak month for suicides and for admitting patients to mental hospital. June is also a peak month for marriages!

Possibly，high temperature and humidity bring on our strange and surprising summer actions，but police officers are not so sure. “There are，of course，no proof of a relation between humidity and murder”，they say. “Why murder's high time should come in the summer time we really don't know”.

(30)

A．Different kinds of crimes。

B．Increasingly high crime rate in the U.S.

C．Seasonal changes in the natural environment．

D．The relations between changes in the season and crime patterns．

听力原文：A good modern newspaper is an extraordinary piece of reading. It is remarkable fi

听力原文： A good modern newspaper is an extraordinary piece of reading. It is remarkable first for what it contains: the range of news from local crime to international politics, from sport to business to fashion to science, and the range of comment and special features as well, from editorial page to feature articles and interviews to criticism of books, art, theatre and music. A newspaper is even more remarkable for the way one reads it: never completely, never straight through, but always by jumping from here to there, in and on glancing at one piece, reading another article all the way through, reading just a few paragraphs of the next. A good modem newspaper offers a variety to attract many different readers, but far more than any one reader is interested in. What brings this variety together in one place is its topicality, its immediate relation to what is happening in your world end your locality now. But immediacy and the speed of production that goes with it mean also that much of what appears in a newspaper has no more than transient value. For all these reasons, no two people really read the same paper: what each person does is to put together out of the pages of that day's paper, his own selection and sequence, his own newspaper. For all these reasons, reading newspapers efficiently, which means getting what you want from them without missing things you need but without wasting time, demands skill end self-awareness as you modify and apply the techniques of reading.

(30)

A．Uniform. style.

B．Wide coverage.

C．Speed in reporting news.

D．Popularity.

听力原文：Esperanto is an artificial language designed to serve internationally as an auxil

Europe, both east and west, to such countries as Brazil and Japan. It is, however, in China that Esperanto has had its greatest impact.

听力原文：Amsterdam, the Netherland's capital, is one of the world's best tourist destinati

听力原文： Amsterdam, the Netherland's capital, is one of the world's best tourist destinations, where you can immerse yourself in history, in art, in the head of a beer.

Any time can be the best time to visit. The summer months are wonderful as the whole city seems to live outdoors, but it's also the peak tourist season, when hotels are full and expensive. From mid-October to mid-March the climate is miserable, but there are fewer tourists, things are cheaper and cultural life is at its most authentic. The shoulder seasons can offer the best of both worlds.

Many of the world's airlines fly directly to Amsterdam, and it is extremely convenient to fly to Amsterdam from China. But it might be cheaper for you to fly to a nearby city such as London and get to Amsterdam by bus or train. Many airlines will offer you a free side trip within Europe, so ask around and see what offers are available.

Amsterdam is well connected to the rest of Europe, including Britain, by long-distance bus. Buses are consistently cheaper than trains, but on some services you'll get a lungful of cigarette smoke. Freeways link Amsterdam to The Hague, Rotterdam. The Netherlands are very amenable to cycling —this is one of the flattest places in the world, and there are dedicated bike paths throughout the country. Amsterdam has 550,000 bicycles and this is an ideal way to get around, although you need to get used to the idea of having your bike stolen. If you're going to be around for more than a month, consider buying a second-hand bike, and make sure you buy a lock as well.

(30)

A．The whole city becomes noisy.

B．It's hard to find a cheap or vacant hotel room.

C．It is too hot then.

D．The crime rate increases.

听力原文：Your professor has asked me to talk to you today about the topic that should be o

听力原文： Your professor has asked me to talk to you today about the topic that should be of real concern to civil engineers: the erosion of the US beaches. Let me start with some statistics. Did you know that 90% of the coast in this country is eroding, on the Gulf of Mexico for instance, erosion averages 4 to 5 feet per year？ Over the past 20 years, there has been an increase in building along the coast, even though geologists and environmentalists have been warning communities about problems like erosion. Someway, communities have tried to protect their buildings and roads and to build seawalls.

However, geologists have found that such stabilizing structures actually speed up the destruction of the beaches. These beaches with seawalls, called stabilized beaches, are much narrower than beaches without them. You may wonder how seawalls speed up beach loss. The explanation is simple. If the flow of the beaches is gentle, the water energy is lessened as it washes up along the shore. It is reduced even more that returns to the sea so it doesn't carry back much sand. On the other hand, when the water hits the nearly vertical face of the seawall, it goes straight back to the sea with the full force of its energy and it carries back a great deal of sand. Because of the real risk of losing beaches, many geologists support a ban on all types of stabilizing construction on shorelines.

(30)

A．To protect beachfront property.

B．To reduce the traffic on beach roads.

C．To provide privacy for homeowners.

D．To define property limits.

听力原文：It's generally agreed that serious, violent crime has reached alarming laroportio

听力原文： It's generally agreed that serious, violent crime has reached alarming laroportions in the United States. A survey by the Law Enforcement Assistance Administration found that 61% of all women feel unsafe in their own neighborhoods at night; that 45 % of the population is afraid to walk alone at night near their own homes; and that 47% own guns, large for self-protection.

Those arrested for crimes and disproportionately likely to be male, young, a member of a racial minority, and a city resident. Males are arrested about four times as often as females. Only in juvenile runaway cases and prostitution are females more often arrested. One is the sex role stereotyping which encourages males to be more aggressive and daring, while females are encouraged to be more passive and conforming to the rules and norms. The second reason is the tendency of police officers and the courts to deal more kindly with female offenders. However, it should be noted, in the past decade, crime among females has been increasing at much faster rate than among males, a negative side effect which has been attributed to women challenging the traditional sex role of passivity and conformity.

Young people appear to commit far more than their share of crime, including the crimes that are classified by the FBI as most serious-rape, murder, robbery, arson, burglary, aggravated assault, auto theft. In 1985, 31% of all arrests were of person under the age of 21, and 50% of all arrests were of persons under 25.

(30)

A．For hunting.

B．For protecting himself.

C．For stimulation.

D．For protecting the country.
