听力原文: In America, where labor costs are so high, "do it yourself" is a way of life. Ma

ny people repair their own cars, built their own garages, even rebuilt their own houses. Soon many of them will also be writing their own books. In Hollywood there is a company that publishes children's books with the help of computers. Although other book companies also publish that way, this company is not like the others. It allows the reader to become the leading character in the stories with the help of computers. Here is how they do it. Let us suppose the child is named Jenny. She lives in New York, and has a dog named Hody. The computer uses this information to make up a story with pictures. The story is then printed up. A child who receives such a book might say, "this book is about me," so the company calls itself the "Me-Books Publishing Company".

Children like the me-books because they like to see in print their own names and the names of their friends and their pets. But more importantly, in this way, readers are much more interested in reading the stories. Me-books are helping children to learn how to read.

A.They can do better than others.

B.It is expensive to hire labour.

C.They don't like to be helped.

听力原文:Language is a way to communicate with each other. We started to learn language wh

听力原文: Language is a way to communicate with each other. We started to learn language when we were born. However, people are used to speaking their native language, so immigrants are having many problems between the first generation and the second generation because they don't have the same native language. Also, the second generation is losing their identity. Especially in America, there are many immigrants that came from different countries to succeed in the States. Because they suffer in lots of areas such as getting a job and trying to speak English, they want their children to speak English, not only at school, but also at home in order to be more successful. Because of this situation, their children are losing their identity and, even more, they are ignoring their parents whose English is not very good.

I think most immigrants are trying to preserve their native language in their new country, but this doesn't help very much in getting a good job. My aunt taught Korean to her children not to help them succeed in the U. S. ; she did so, hopefully, to help them establish a Korean identity. Though the second generation is born in the new country, they often get confused about their identity because they look different from others, and also, if they visit their parents' country, they will probably feel different from other people there too. My cousins told me that when they visited Korea a few years ago, they felt different from other Koreans. They could even feel it just strolling around the street because they wore different clothes and walked differently.

We must realize that language is important and valuable for many reasons. Immigrants should make an effort not to be ignored by their children and to make their children understand their background by teaching them the parents' language. This is very important, not only for the harmony of the family, but also in helping the second generation establish their identity.

(33)

A.They have lost their identity.

B.Their children speak different languages.

C.Their children are losing their identity.

D.They cannot speak their native language.

听力原文: Where Did the Americans Come from? There is a great deal of land in the United States, but there is also a population in America. Where did the people come from?

The first Americans who came to the land were Indians. Today there are about 900,000 American Indians. There is one part of the country with an especially large Indian population. That is the southwest. Blacks first came to America from Africa as slaves. President Lincoln freed the slaves in 1863. About eleven percent of the present American population are Blacks. The first immigrants in American history came from England and the Netherlands. Soon immigrants began to arrive from many other countries, and they are still arriving. In 1790 the new nation had fewer than four million people. Today there are more than 300 million. These include people from all parts of the world.

(33)

A.African slaves.

B.The Dutch.

C.The Indians.

D.The British.

听力原文:America is growing older. Fifty years ago, only 4 out of every 100 people in the

听力原文: America is growing older. Fifty years ago, only 4 out of every 100 people in the United States were 65 or older. Today, 10 out of every 100 Americans are over 65. The aging of the population will affect American society in many ways — education, medicine and business.

Quietly, the graying of America has made us a very different society — one in which people have a quite different idea of what kind of behavior. is suitable at various ages. A person's age no longer tells you anything about his / her social position, marriage or health. There's no longer a particular year in which one goes to school or goes to work or gets married or starts a family. The social clock that kept us on time and told us when to go to school, get a job, or stop working isn't as strong as it used to be. It doesn't surprise us to hear of a 29-year-old university president or a 35-year-old grandmother, or a 70-year-old man who has become a father for the first time.

Public ideas are changing. Many people say, "I am much younger than my mother or my father was at my age". No one says "Act your age" anymore. We've stopped looking with surprise at older people who act in youthful ways.

Questions 29 to 31 are based on the passage you have just heard.

29. What is the percentage of people above 65 in America today?

30. What can we know from the passage?

31. What does the passage imply?

(30)

A.4%.

B.10%.

C.14%.

D.25%.

Hundreds of years later, ice cream reached England. It is said that King Charles I enjoyed that treat very much.

听力原文: According to Alvin Toffler, author of the best seller Future Shock, (32)America

听力原文: According to Alvin Toffler, author of the best seller Future Shock, (32)America has become a throwaway society. (33)Cardboard milk containers and rockets are only two examples. Such products are created for short-term or one-time use. They are becoming more numerous and more important to modern living. Toffler thinks that man's relationships with things will grow increasingly temporary.

As proof of this trend, Toffler cites such products as disposable diapers, (33)bibs, paper napkins and non-returnable bottles. Vegetables are encased in plastic sacks. They can be dropped into a pan of boiling water and thrown away after the meal. TV dinners are cooked in throwaway trays. They are even served in them.

All these things are quickly used up. Then they are ruthlessly eliminated. In Toffler's view, the American home has become little more than a large processing plant.

(35)Toffler further believes that his countrymen are developing values to go with their throwaway products. (34)He says that easy disposability leads to shorter man-thing relationships. People were once linked with a few objects for a long time. Now they are linked with a series of objects for a brief period. So the relationship between them is not so long and it's hard for people to have the deep feeling to something. Because after one time. they'll be thrown away.

(33)

A.Introduce Alvin Toffler's best seller Future Shock.

B.Discuss the throwaway problem in America.

C.Analyze the relationship between men and things.

D.Describe the throwaway products made in USA.
