听力原文： The world's smartest adolescence in mathematics and science are Singapore, according to a global survey of educational achievement. In the 3rd International Mathematics and Science Study, 13yearolds from Singapore achieved the best scores in standardized tests d math and science that were administered to 287,896 students in 41 countries in 1994 and 1995. The survey suggests that science and math education is especially strong in the Far East. While well behind those top scores, students from Australia earned higher marks in math than their counterparts in England, who in turn did better than American students. The study collected information on the students' teachers and homes. Not surprisingly, the highestscoring students had walleducated parents or came from homes containing studyaids such as computers, dictionaries or even such elementry facilities as desks. The study shows that boys generally did better than girls in science, but there was little difference between them in math. Boys scored better than girls in physics and chemistry. There were no sex differences in the life and environmental sciences. In addition to being tested, students in the project were asked how proficient they thought they were in math and .science. Students in some countries, such as Columbia and Kuwait, had an overly optimistic view of their skills. Meanwhile, some of the beat students from Japan and Korea for example were needlessly pessimistic even though they did far better in math than almost all of the other students.

听力原文： We all find that learning English takes effort and dedication. There are times when you seem to hit a plateau in learning. A plateau here refers to a flat spot, during which you don't feel any advancement taking place. Educational research reveals this is normal. But don't give up. Keep on studying and practicing, and you will soon feel as if you are progressing once again. Just tell yourself that it's a temporary condition. Meanwhile, study faithfully, do your best, and the rewards will be worth the struggle.
Why do we learn English？ Most people say that English now becomes an international language, and it is a very useful tool, a means to achieve something else. But specifically, what is the use of a foreign language？ We may use it to communicate freely with a native speaker. We may use it to get a job with a decent pay. We may use it to help negotiate a business contract with a foreign company. In any case, when you hurry through the last lesson of the language course, you'll have your completion certificate hanging on your wall. A certificate may mean nothing in comparison with your accomplishment. What is really significant is that you' have learnt to use that language to your advantage and benefit. A certificate may get stained, lost or be destroyed in a fire, but what's in your memory will go with you wherever you go. A language skill is worth money in today's international business world. So study well and cash in on success !
(35)
A．A temporary condition where you don't feel any progress in learning.
B．A flat and smooth spot in your study where you make fewer mistakes.
C．A long-term struggle which does not bring you any tangible rewards.
D．An educational research on language learning that is unusual and advanced.

M: Well, I read of a global study about this. According to it, listening to music is what most people do lo ease stress.
W: I guess, that's because we have easy access to music via radio, TV, internet and so many other channels.
M: Yeah, andwatching TV is listed as the next popular stress reliever, followed by taking a bath or shower
W: Well, I've heard thru it is quite popular in your country for people to consult psychologists and doctors.
M: I'm afraid that's not true. I believe only a few people think it's helpful.
W: I have noticed that our manager always looks energetic, even though he works more than 12 hours a day. Perhaps, lie takes some specific medicine.
M: I know why he likes dancing and often visits liars alone so that lie can dance to his heart's content.
W: So that's how it is. Butwhen I feel anxious or exhausted, I prefer to take a walk or read a funny story

Some people believe that coffee bean can lower the incidence of some diseases. First, the disease is diabetes. A study of 14,000 people in Finland which is the world's greatest per-capita consumer of coffee found that women who drank three to four cups a day cut their risk of developing diabetes by 29 percent. For men, it was 27 percent. Researchers aren't sure why, but suspect that the antioxidants in coffee help deliver insulin to the body's tissues. Second, it can lower cancer. In Japan, a study of 90,000 people revealed those who drank coffee every day for ten years were half as likely to get liver cancer. Meanwhile, German scientists have identified an active compound in coffee that boosts enzymes thought to prevent colon cancer. Finally, it can also lower Parkinson's disease. Researchers in Hawaii monitored the health of more than 8,000 Japanese-American men for 30 years and discovered that those who drank a cup of coffee a day had less than half the incidence of Parkinson's disease. A possible clue as to why: caffeine promotes the release of dopamine, a substance involved with movement and usually consumed in Parkinson's sufferers.
On the contrary, there's hot debate on whether drinking coffee is a cardiac risk. A Greek study of more than 3,000 people found coffee drinkers has higher levels of bad substances in their blood than non-drinkers. But Harvard researchers looking at the health of coffee drinkers over 20 years could not localize any extra coronary problems. Nevertheless-, a study of 2,028 Costa Ricans found those with a gene variant that processes caffeine four times slower than average, and who also drank two to three cups of coffee a day, upped their heart-attack risk by 36 percent. As this group metabolises caffeine slower, it remains in the body for longer — possibly pushing up blood pressure.
For most of us, the humble cup of coffee is simply a harmless and enjoyable way to kick — start the day or give us an excuse for some time out. No more, no less. However, it is important to remember that different people exhibit different tolerance levels to caffeine — it is, after all, a drug.
What is mainly discussed in the text？
A．roast bean can cure disease.
B．roast bean is a good medicine.
C．more and more people want to drink coffee.
D．whether the roast bean is good or bad is also a question.

Questions 1 to 5 are based on the following passage.
Declining mental function is often seen as a problem of old age，but certain aspects of brain function actually begin their decline in young adulthood, a new study suggests. The study, which followed more than 2,000 healthy adults between the ages of 18 and 60, found that certain mental functions—including measures of abstract reasoning, mental speed and puzzle-solving—started to dull as early as age 27. Dips in memory, meanwhile, generally became apparent around age 37. On the other hand, indicators of a person’s accumulated knowledge—like performance on tests of vocabulary and general knowledge—kept improving with age, according to findings published in the journal Neurobiology of Aging. The results do not mean that young adults need to start worrying about their memories. Most people’s minds function at a high level even in their later years, according to researcher Timothy Salthouse. "These patterns suggest that some types of mental flexibility decrease relatively early in adulthood, but that the amount of knowledge one has, and the effectiveness of integrating it with one’s abilities，may increase throughout all of adulthood if there are no dispases," Salthouse said in a news release.The study included healthy, educated adults who took standard tests of memory, reasoning and perception at the outset and at some point over the next seven years. The tests are designed to detect subtle (细微的)changes in mental function, and involve solving Puzzles, recalling words and details from stories, and identifying patterns in collections of letters and symbols. In general, Salthouse and his colleagues found, certain aspects of cognition (认知能力)generally started to decline in the late 20s to 30s. The findings shed light on normal age-related changes in mental function, which could aid in understanding the process of dementia(痴呆),according to the researchers. “By following individuals over time,” Salthouse said, "we gain insight in cognition changes, and may possibly discover ways to slow the rate of decline.” The researchers are currently analyzing, the study participants&39; health and lifestyle. to see which factors might influence age-related cognitive changes.
What is the common view of mental function
A.It varies from person to person.
B.It gradually expands with age.
C.It weakens in one’s later years.
D.It indicates one’s health condition.
