第1题
M: I saw that article too. But I think if someone runs into a drugstore for ten minutes, it's usually to make a specific purchase.
W. And someone who spends more time there may be just looking.
M: Exactly. Haven't you ever gone into a store thinking that you buy something and then talk yourself out of it.
W: Yes, I have, especially when I thought I could get it for less elsewhere or I really didn't
need it after all.
M: Exactly. But if you run into buying something specifically and have very little time, you pick it up, pay for it immediately and then leave.
W: That's true. Maybe we should learn a lesson from that. Take your time and you'll spend less money.
M: I doubt that it will be true in all sources though. You know, in a department store, for instance, you may see a sweater or something you never intended to buy and buy it because you've had time to look around.
What starts the conversation？
A．An advertisement.
B．A sales clerk's comment.
C．A druggist's suggestion.

第5题
Surprisingly, since modern PR was largely an American invention, the U.S. leadership in public relations is being threatened by PR efforts in other countries. Ten years ago, for example, the world's top five public relations agencies were American-owned. In 1991, only one was. The British in particular are becoming more sophisticated and creative. A recent survey found that more than half of all British companies include PR as part of their corporate planning activities, compared to about one-third of U.S. companies. It may not belong before London replaces New York as the capital of PR.
Why is America lagging behind in the global PR race？ Firstly, Americans as a whole tend to be fairly provincial and take more of an interest in local affairs. Knowledge of world geography, for example, has never been strong in this country. Secondly, American lag behind their European and Asian counterparts in knowing a second language. Less than 5 percent of Burson-Marshall's U.S. employees know two languages. Ogilvy and Mather has about the same percentage. Conversely, some European firms have half or more of their employees fluent in a second language. Finally, people involved in PR abroad tend to keep a closer eye on international affairs. In the financial PR area, for instance, most Americans read the Wall Street Journal. Overseas, their counterparts read the Journal as well as the Financial Times of London and The Economist, publications not often read in this country.
Perhaps the PR industry might take a lesson from Ted Turner of CNN (Cable News Network). Turner recently announced that the word "foreign" would no longer be used on CNN news broadcasts. According to Turner, global communications have made the nations of the would so interdependent that there is no longer any such thing as foreign.
According to the passage, U.S. leadership in public relations is being threatened because of ______.
A．shrinking cultural differences and new communication technologies
B．increased efforts of other countries in public relations
C．an unparalleled increase in the number of public relations companies
D．the decreasing number of multinational corporations technologies
第6题
M: Yes, that's right. The story of how a listener's determination has qualified her for our Consumer of the Month award.
W: This is the story of Miss Patty Ching who went on a holiday to Europe last month. This was her first ever trip abroad and one for which she'd been saving for 10 years. She took a lot of photos. About 360 photographs. When Patty got home, she gave ail her photos to Top-class Photo Services for developing and they vanished. She never saw them again.
M: What did she do next？
W: So she wrote them a letter, telling them to pay up in ten days or she would take them to court. She received no reply. So she took them to court. Patty's case provides a lesson to us all. If we want our fights as consumers, we've got to fight for them. So for her determination and spirit we name Patty our Consumer of the Month.
M: Thank you, and now I'd like to deal with the problem that many of our listeners write about-Sale prices. When we go to a sale and see a sign on something saying 50% off or 300 dollars reduced to 100, how do we know the prices really have been reduced？
W: For the moment all we can do is to complain to the store's management and bring these cases to the attention of the public. Bad publicity might help to put a stop to this dishonest practice.
(20)
A．To be a keen photographer is too costly.
B．She has to develop 10 rolls of films.
C．All her films were vanished.
D．After the trip, she was too tired to choose a good one.

The Development of PR
The rise of multinational corporations, global marketing, new communications technologies, and shrinking cultural differences have led to an unparalleled increase in global public relations or PR.

Ten years age, for example, the world’s top five public relations agencies were American-owned. In 1991, only one was. The British in particular are becoming more sophisticated and creative.

Sleep and Dreams
We often hear people ask the question, "What did you dream about last night？" This shows that dreaming is a very common experience. Everyone in normal health spends parts of the night dreaming. And just as there are many different types of dreams, there are a variety of dream functions. Let's look at just five.
The first is the function of the experience-monitoring dream. In this, the mind reviews past experience, that is, the experience of the previous day or some event in the more distant past. Such a review is a way of learning the lesson of that experience. Often the dream has an outcome different from what really happened. It represents a more, or less, desirable result. For example, after an unsuccessful interview for a job, you may dream that you are in the same room, before the same people, but now speaking calmly and effectively.
If that dream occurs before your interview, it may be of the creative type. This is another important function of the dream that helps solve problems by suggesting answers.
Freud and his followers attach greatest importance to the function of the wish-fulfilling dream. According to Freud, in our dreams we satisfy desires which our circumstances or personal limitations do not allow us to achieve. For example, a boy with little pocket money may dream a lot of coins falling from the sky. Such dreams are usually very sweet, but short-lived.
The fourth dream function is that which brings us to some external reality, usually by some sensory stimulus (感官刺激). For example, you dream that you are at or in a fire; you start up, and find a cigarette burning in your bedside ash-tray. In this way the senses send messages to the "sleeping" mind warning us of the need to awake in order to take some form. of action.
Finally, the predictive function (预见功能) of the dream, a function people are most uncertain about. But whether or not we believe in the possibility of events being predicted in dreams, the fact is that throughout the ages men have done so. One famous example is about the birth of Buddha. It is said that, one night before Buddha was born, his mother dreamed that a white elephant entered her womb (子宫). Ten months later she gave birth to this great religious leader.
The first paragraph suggests that both dreams and functions of dreams are
A．good to health.
B．bad to health.
C．unimportant in life.
D．of many types.
