听力原文: Proverbs, sometimes called sayings, are examples of folk wisdom. They are little lessons which older people of a culture pass down to the younger people to teach them about life. Many proverbs remind people of the values that are important in the culture. Values teach people how to act, what is right, and what is wrong. Because the values of each culture are different, understanding the values of another culture helps explain how people think and act. Understanding your own cultural values is important too. If you can accept that people from other cultures act according to their values, not yours, getting along with them will be much easier. Many proverbs are very old. So some of the values they teach may not be as important in the culture as they once were. For example, Americans today do not pay much attention to the proverb "Haste makes waste.", because patience is not important to them. But if you know about past values, it helps you to understand the present. And many of the older values are still strong today. Benjamin Franklin, a famous American diplomat, writer and scientist, died in 1790, but his proverb "Time is money." is taken more seriously by Americans of today than ever before. A study of proverbs from around the world shows that some values are shared by many cultures. In many cases though, the same idea is expressed differently.
Questions 33 to 35 are based on the passage you have just heard.
33. Why are proverbs so important?
34. According to the speaker, what happens to some proverbs with the passage of time?
35. What do we learn from the study of proverbs from around the world?
(30)
A.They help us see the important values of a culture.
B.They guide us in handling human relationships.
C.They help us express ourselves more effectively.
D.They are an infinite source of human knowledge.

A prince, being thus obliged to know well how to act as a beast, must imitate the fox, and the lion, for the lion cannot protect himself from traps. And the fox cannot defend himself from wolves. Those that wish to be only lions do not understand this. Therefore, a prudent(小心谨慎的) ruler ought not to keep faith when by doing so it would be against his interest, and the .reasons which made him bind himself no longer exist. If men were all good, this precept (戒律,准则) would not be a good one; but as they are had, and would not observe their faith with you, so you are not bound to keep faith with them. Nor have legitimate grounds ever failed a prince who wishes to show colorable excuse for the nonfulfilment of his promise. Of this one could furnish an infinite number of examples, and how many times peace has been broken, and how many promises rendered worthless, by the faithlessness of princes, and those that have best been able to imitate the fox have succeeded best. But it is necessary to be able to disguise this character well, and to be a great feigner and dissembler, and men are so simple and so ready to obey present necessities, that the one who deceives will always find those who allow themselves to be deceived.
The word "recourse"(para.1) probably means ______
A.method
B.resort
C.follow
D.change
