听力原文： A recent report has shown that here in the United States, we've experienced an evolution concerning our attitudes towards the workweek and the weekend. Although some calendars still mark the beginning of a week as Sunday, more and more of us are coming to regard Monday as the first day of week with Saturday and Sunday comprising the twoday period thought of as the weekend. In fact the word "weekend" didn't even exist in English until about the middle of last century. In England at that time, Saturday afternoons had just been added to Sundays and holidays as a time for workers to have off from their jobs. This innovation became common in the United States in 1920, but as the workweek shortened during the Great Depression of the 1930s, the weekend expanded to two full days Saturday and Sunday. Some people thought that this trend would continue due to increasing automation and the workweek might decrease to four days or even fewer. But so far this hasn't happened. The workweek seems to have stabilized as forty hours made up of five eighthour days. After this commercial I'll be back to talk about tile idea of adding Monday to the weekend.

(33)

A．Shifting job opportunities.

B．The evolution of the weekend.

C．Attitudes toward employment.

D．Attitudes toward leisure activities.

听力原文： Decreasing circulation has been a problem for newspapers for some years. The Internet is just the most recent competitor for people's time.

American media are privately owned. Newspapers get some of their money from renders. But mostly they depend on businesses to buy advertising space in their pages. The larger the circulation, the more a newspaper can charge advertisers. But recently, several newspapers have admitted lying about their number of readers.

The Tribune Company announced that it had overstated sales of two of its papers. These were Newsday and the Spanish-language paper Hoy. The Tribute Company also owns the Los Angeles Times and the Chicago Tribune. In July, the Audit Bureau of Circulations punished Newsday and Hoy. The two newspapers will have to report their circulation numbers more often than usual for the next two years.

Recently the Belo Corporation announced it had overstated the circulation of the Dallas Morning News, in Texas. The publisher will repay 23 million dollars to advertisers. It will also provide four million dollars in free advertising. Other publishers that falsely reported their circulations will also be repaying advertisers trillions of dollars.

An Audit Bureau spokeswoman says eases like these recent ones appear to be ram. But the Securities and Exchange Commission announced that it would expand its investigation to oilier newspapers.

(33)

A．The decreasing circulation of American newspapers.

B．The investigation on American newspapers.

C．The false circulation reports of American newspapers.

听力原文：China has come up with a first nationwide regulations on managing alcohol sales,

听力原文： China has come up with a first nationwide regulations on managing alcohol sales, including a ban on selling alcohol to minors, China Youth Daily reports.

The "Alcohol Circulation Management Regulations" enacted Thursday by the nation's Ministry of Commerce are set to get into effect January 1, 2006.

The regulations set up systems to supervise alcohol sellers, and include a registration and tracing system.

The new rules also demand that trade administration departments at all government levels cannot block or undermine the legal circulation of alcohol products. This is being widely viewed as an effort by the central government to restrain protectionism in regional trade.

The report did not say how those who don't obey the new regulations would be punished.

The action follows a recent trend in some major urban areas. In March of this year, the Shanghai local government carried out a rule banning the sale of alcohol to minors, the Xinhua news agency said.

According to that regulation, selling cigarettes and alcohol to minors is banned.

Adults cannot help minors buy such products, nor are they permitted to smoke in school classrooms, libraries or any location where children are frequently present. All stores selling cigarettes and alcohol are required to post "No Cigarette and Alcohol Sales to Minor" warning signs.

(36)

A．Children education.

B．Alcohol sales.

C．Environmental protection.

D．None of the above.

听力原文：Not everybody reads the daily newspaper. People who do not read newspapers are so

听力原文： Not everybody reads the daily newspaper. People who do not read newspapers are sometimes referred to as nonreaders. Early research has shown that nonreaders are generally low in education, low in income, either very young or very old. In addition, nonreaders are more likely to live in rural areas and have less contact with neighbors and friends. Other studies show that nonreaders tend to isolated themselves from the community, are less likely to own a home and seldom belong to local voluntary organizations. Why don't these people read the daily paper？ They say they don't have the time; they prefer radio or TV; they have no interest in reading at all. And besides, they think newspapers are too expensive. Recent surveys, however, have indicated that the portrait of the nonreader is more complicated than first thought. There appears to be a group of nonreaders that does not fit the type mentioned above. They are high in income, and fall into the age group of 2665. They axe far more likely to report that they don't have the time to read the papers and they have no interest in the content. Editors and publishers axe attempting to win them back. First, they are adding news briefs and comprehensive indexes. This will help overcome the time problem. And they are also giving variety to newspaper content to help build the readers' interest.

(26)

A．They are interested in other kinds of reading.

B．They are active in voluntary services.

C．They tend to be low in education and in income.

D．They live in isolated areas.

听力原文： Today I'd like to talk to you about group discussions known as "seminars" and "tutorials". I want, first of all, to deal with the meaning of these terms, then I want to cover the aims of group discussions; next I'll go on with some problems that English learners are likely to-face; and finally I'd like to offer a few pieces of advice.

Firstly, let's look at the meaning of the terms "seminar" and "tutorial". Nowadays it's difficult to draw a precise distinction between the meanings of the two words. The differences are firstly the size of the group and secondly their purposes. A tutorial is usually for a small number of students, say, between two and five, whereas a seminar is attended by a larger group, say, between ten and fifteen. In a tutorial, a tutor adopts the role of the expert and asks and answers questions related to his most recent lectures. Often a student has to submit an essay or a report which is discussed by the tutor and then by other members of the tutorial group. In short, the tutor takes the lead; he in fact "tutored". The purpose of the seminar, however, is to provide an opportunity to discuss a previously arranged topic. More than one member of the staff might be present and one of them would probably act as chairman. Often one student gives a short talk served as an introduction to the discussion. The other students may have been asked to read a number of chapters of a book, related to the talk, so as, to be well-prepared to participate in the discussion.

(26)

A．A student.

B．A lecturer.

C．A group leader.

D．The chairman.
