The first lift was just a box suspended on a rope. Using a series of pulleys, a group of oxen ox strong men would pull the rope end lift the box to a higher point. Lifts were used only for heavy materials, not passengers. Even in the nineteenth century, when steam power was used to operate the lifts, people didn't ride them. They didn't trust the rope that held the box.
In 1853, Elisha G. Otis invented the first safe lift. He showed his invention in New York at the Crystal Palace Exhibition. At the exhibition, Otis was pulled up in an open box that was attached to two guide mils. When he was lifted far above the spectators, he gave the order to cat the rope. To the amazement of the crowd, the lift did not fall straight downward to the floor. Instead, it was held fast to the guide rails by a certain device. He had built powerful metal clamps on the carriage as a safety measure. The demonstration worked, and people have been riding as passengers in elevators ever since.

听力原文： I wonder how many of you would want to work in a tall building such as the Empire State Building if you had to climb 102 flights of stairs to reach the top. Not many, I imagine. If it were not for the invention of elevators, or lifts, tall buildings would be unusable.

You could see it in our games. Nobody organized them. There weren't any competitive sports. But we took part in lots of activities and we were organized, not in the sense that there were wars of finding out who had won and who had lost. We played balls like everyone else, but no one kept scores. Even if we did formally take part in the games we played, no one was a winner though someone may have won. It was only at that moment. If you beat someone by pulling a bow (弓) and arrow (箭) and shooting the arrow further, it didn't mean you were better in any way. It just meant that at that particular time the arrow went further; maybe it was just the way you let the bow go. These kinds of things are very important to me and that is why I am talking about them.
One of the very important things was the relationship we had with our families. We didn't always live at home. We lived wherever we happened to be at that particular time when it got dark. If you were two or three miles away from home, then that was where you slept.
According to the writer, in India ______.

B．all the people quarreled with each other in every fight
C．people often took part in different fights
D．every child tried to climb to the top of ail the activities

W: I didn't see it. Was it good？
M: Really it was. It was about stress, the effects of stress on the national health.
W: It was interesting, right？
M: Yes. I think they said that one out of nine women aged 45 to 65 will have a heart attack.
W: I' m surprised at that.
M: I was too. Oh, another thing. They said that women usually don' t get the same level of care as men do, so the heart attack is likely to be more serious.
W: Why is that？
M: Because many members of the medical profession still think of a heart attack as a male problem, so they don' t recognize the symptoms in women patients.
W: Well, it does sound very interesting. I' m going to try to see it before class next time, so I'll be ready for the discussion.

A．It is required by Professor Stephen.
B．It is very interesting.
C．He wants to know about heart attacks.

The guard said, "You've just missed one. A train goes every hour. The next one is at ten o'clock."
"That's all right," they said, "We'll go and have a drink." So off they went to a bar (酒吧间). A minute or two after ten o'clock they came running and asked the guard, "Has the train gone？"
"Yes," the guard said. "It went at ten, as I told you. The next one is at eleven o' clock."
"That's all right," they said again. "We'll go and have another drink." So they went back to the bar.
They missed the eleven o' clock train in the same way. Then the guard said, "Now, the next train is the last one. If you miss that train, you won't get to London tonight."
Twelve o'clock came, and the last train was just starting out when the three of them came out of the bar running as fast as they could. Two of them got in the train just as it was leaving, but the third one didn't run fast enough, and the train went out leaving him behind. He stood there looking at the train and laughing, as if (好像) to miss a train was the best joke in the world. The guard went up to him and said, "I told you that this was the last train. Why didn't you come earlier？"
The man kept laughing until tears came into his eyes. Then he caught hold of the guard and said, "Did you see the two men get into the train and leave me here？"
"Yes, I did."
"Well, I was the only one to leave for London. They were here only to see me off!"
