Not very long ago, a special family system existed in certain parts of south india. in t

his system, the actual head of a family unit was the mother’s eldest brother, though the mother also had an important position in the family. in families of this kind, a husband was actually no more than a visitor. he did not live with his wife , but with his own mother, brothers and sisters in another house. he saw his sons and daughters sometimes, but the man who actually fed and cared for them and acted as their father was their uncle—their mother’s brother.

but this system, in which brothers and sisters take the place of the father, no longer exists in south india except in a few villages. economic changes have had far-reaching effect on family life, so family life began to change when men sent out to work in factories and offices instead of working with their mothers, brothers, and sisters on the land. when a man went out to work he had money of his own and could buy his own land and build his own family, instead of depending on his mother and his brothers. he wanted to be independent. this is an example of the way in which economic relations can have an effect on family relationships.

听力原文:The great advance in rocket theory 40 years ago showed that liquid-fuel rockets w

听力原文: The great advance in rocket theory 40 years ago showed that liquid-fuel rockets were far superior in every respect to the skyrocket with its weak solid fuel, the only kind of rocket then known. However, during the last decade, large solid-fuel rockets with solid fuels about as powerful as liquid fuels have made their appearance, and it is a favorite layman's question to inquire which one is "better". The question is meaningless; one might as well as ask whether a gasoline or a diesel engine is "better". It all depends on the purpose. A liquid-fuel rocket is complicated, but has the advantage that it can be controlled beautifully. The burning of the rocket engine can be stopped completely; it can be reignited when desired. A solid-fuel rocket, on the other hand, is rather simple in construction, though hard to build when a really large size is desired. But once you have a solid-fuel rocket, it is ready for action at a very short notice. A liquid-fuel rocket has to be fueled first and can not be held in readiness for very long after it has been fueled. However, once a solid-fuel rocket has been ignited, it will keep burning. It can't be stopped and reignited whenever desired. Because a solid-fuel rocket can be kept ready for a long time, most military missiles employ solid fuels, but manned space flight needs the fine adjustments that can only be provided by liquid-fuel rocket. It may be added that a liquid-fuel rocket is an expensive device; a large solid-fuel rocket is, by comparison, cheap.

(33)

A.Neither of the two types of rockets is very economical.

B.The liquid-fuel rocket is best.

C.Each type of rocket has certain advantages.

D.The solid-fuel rocket is best.

听力原文: Long ago, no one in Europe smoked. The tobacco plant was unknown there. It grew in America and Christopher Columbus found it there. Later he returned to Europe and told people about tobacco. He said that the American Indians often smoked it. They threw some tobacco leaves on a fire, then put long tubes in their mouths. The other ends of the tubes were over the fire, so they were able to draw the smoke into their mouth.

About the year 1560 a Frenchman, Jean Nicot, was living in Lisbon, Portugal. He was very interested in all American plants. Some of them were very different from the plants of Europe. He used the leaves of the tobacco plant to cure pain. When a man had a bad pain in a leg or an arm, Nicot put tobacco leaves on the painful place and tried to cure the pain in that way. We say now that tobacco contains nicotine. The word nicotine comes from this man's name.

Sir Walter Raleigh was a famous man in the days of Queen Elizabeth the First. He traveled widely and learnt to smoke. Then he returned to England, but he didn't stop smoking. He used to smoke two pipes every day secretly in his room. When anyone came in, he quickly hid his pipe. A man came in and found clouds of smoke in the room. More smoke was coming from Raleigh's mouth, so the man got some water and threw it over Raleigh. He believed that Raleigh was burning. He ran out of the house and told everybody about it. After this, smoking was not a secret.

(33)

A.In Asia.

B.In Europe.

C.In America.

D.In Latin America.

第5题

听力原文: Many of the Dutch expressions heard in American English were first used in Engla
nd in the seventeenth century. (32) That was a time of fierce naval competition between England and the Netherlands. At that time, the British used Dutch as a word for something bad, false or mistaken.

Some of those old expressions are still used today, with a little different meaning.

Dutch treat is one example. Long ago, a Dutch treat was a dinner at which the invited guests were expected to pay for their own share of the food and drink. Now, Dutch treat means that when friends go out to have fun, each person pays his own share. Another common expression heard a few years ago was in Dutch. (33) If someone told you that you were in Dutch, they were telling you that you were in trouble.

Some of the Dutch expressions heard in American English have nothing to do with the Dutch people at all.

In the seventeen hundreds, Germans who moved to the United States often were called Dutch. (34) This happened because of mistakes in understanding and saying the word Deutsch, the German word for German. Families of these German people still live in the eastern United States, many in the state of Pennsylvania. They are known as the Pennsylvania Dutch.

President Theodore Roosevelt once noted that anything foreign and non-English was called Dutch. One expression still in use -- to talk to someone like a Dutch uncle -- did come from the Dutch. (35) The Dutch were known for the firm way they raised theft children. So if someone speaks to you like a Dutch uncle, he is speaking in a very severe way. And you should listen to him carefully!

(33)

A.Because Americans used them very often in the seventeenth century.

B.Because England wanted to win the naval competition against the Netherlands.

C.Because British people used them for things that were not good to hear.

D.Because American people hated the Dutch people.

听力原文: What will man be like in the future--in 5,000 or even 50,000 years from now.'? We can only make a guess, of course, but we can be sure that he will be different from what he is today. For man is slowly changing all the time. Let us take an obvious example. Man, even five hundred years ago, was shorter than he is today. Now, on average, men are about three inches taller. Five hundred years is a relatively short period of time, so we may assume that man will continue to grow taller. Again, in the modern world we use our brains a great deal. Even so, we still make use of only about 20% of the brain's capacity. As time goes on, however, we shall have to use our brains more and more--and eventually we shall need larger ones! This is likely to bring about a physical change too: the head, in particular the forehead, will grow larger. Nowadays our eyes are in constant use. In fact, we use them so much that very often they become weaker and we have to wear glasses. But over a very long period of time it is likely that man's eyes will grow stronger. On the other hand, we tend to make less use of our arms and legs. These, as a result, are likely to grow weaker. At the same time, however, our fingers will grow more sensitive because they are used a great deal in modem life.

(30)

A.Future man's life style.

B.Future man's thoughts.

C.Future man's appearance.

D.Future man's education.
