听力原文： In Britain, just after the main television news programs, audience figures rise. It' s weather forecast time. The BBC broadcasts 44 live forecasts a day, 443 hours of weather a year, using forecasters from the Meteorological Office. The Office makes predictions about the weather seven days in advance. These are based on observations from the ground, from satellites and from radar. The observations are stored in a computer that can do up to 4,000 million calculations a second.
In Britain the weather is news. The BBC forecasters are professional meteorologists, but they do not have an easy job. They are the only presenters on television who do not use a script, and they cannot see the map that they are describing. Viewers are often critical, especially of female presenters. One woman left her job after rude letters and press reports about her clothes.
The British talk about weather more than almost any other subjects, so it is a surprise to discover that 70 percent of television viewers cannot remember what they saw on the weather forecasts. "What happens is that people like watching and hearing the forecasts, but they probably only take real notice when they need to--when they' re going on holiday or wondering what the weather will be like for the tennis at Wimbledon," says one forecaster. "Or, of course, when we make mistakes!"
(33)
A．Forty-four.
B．Four hundred and thirty-three.
C．Eighty-eight.
D．Four thousand million.

Consider the novel views of Harvey Coleman of Atlanta on the subject of getting ahead. Coleman is black. He spent 11 years with IBM, half of them working in management development, and now serves as a consultant to the likes of AT&T, CocaCola, Prudential, and Merch. Coleman says that based on what he's seen at big com panics, he weighs the different elements that make for longterm career success as follows: performance counts a mere 10%; image, 30%; and exposure, a full 60%. Coleman concludes that excellent job performance is so common these days that while doing your work well may win you pay increases, it won't secure you the big promotion. He finds that advancement more often depends on how many people know you and your work, and how high up they are.
Ridiculous beliefs？ Not to many people, especially many women and members of minority races who, like Coleman, feel that the scales have dropped from their eyes. "Women and blacks in organizations work under false beliefs," says Kaleel Jamison, a New York based management consultant who helps corporations deal with these issues. "They think that if you work hard, you'll get ahead that someone in authority will reach down and give you a promotion." She added, "Most women and blacks are so frightened that people will think they've gotten ahead because of their sex or color that they play down their visibility." Her advice to those folks: learn the ways that white males have traditionally used to find their way into the spotlight (公众注意中心).
According to the passage, "things formerly judged to be best left unsaid" (in Para. 1) probably refers to ______.
A．the opinions, which contradict the established beliefs
B．criticisms that shape everyone's experience
C．the tendencies that help the newcomers to see office matters with a fresh eye
D．the ideas which usually come up with new ways of management in the organization

Informed public debate critical to future of genomic medicine
Just mentioning "stem-cell research" or "genomic medicine" can open a floodgate of beliefs, concerns and, misinformation. Opinions are varied, mixed with fact and fiction, but one thing is clear: Open dialogue among researchers, teachers and the general public must continue as we struggle to define the relationship between our societal values and lifesciences research.
When the University of Washington .and the National Human Genome Research Institute hosted a community genetics forum last spring, questions abounded from the standing-room-only crowd about the implications of genetic research.
When is information about genetic health risks most helpful？ Should genetic testing results be part of medical records and how would the results be used potentially by insurance companies？ How can genetic testing benefit the criminal-justice system, such as establishings guilt or innocence using DNA testing,
The Human Genome Project will lead to amazing advances in medical science that will result in earlier diagnosis, more-targeted treatment, and a dramatic improvement in our ability to prevent terrible diseases. Genomic medicine will mean more personalized medicine tailored to the individual.
But these advances also carry inherent risks.
The obvious benefits of "personalized medicine" —use of genetic tests to guide preventive care and better drug prescribing—are counterbalanced by the possibility that such tests could lead to discrimination by insurers or employers. And, since genetic risk is often only one of the contributing factors to disease, overemphasis on personalized medicine could burden our health-care system with genetic tests of little or no benefit.
For example, smoking, diet and exercise play major roles in the risk of diabetes and heart disease. Identification of a genetic risk for these diseases can provide specific information for more-effective preventive care, but should not detract from pursuit of a healthy lifestyle.
The greatest health benefits of genomic research likely will come from insights into the basic biology of health and disease. This will ultimately lead to improved prevention and treatment—often without any need for genetic testing—for many diseases. The outcome from this research can be "precision medcine" —a morecost-effective approach to providing high-quality care. Thus, genomic medicine has the potential to improve the value of health care.
An example of the potential of genomic medicine to improve quality and reduce cost is the work of UW researchers Mark Rieder, Allan Rettie and Debbie Nickerson. They recently reported the discovery of a genetic method for accurately determining the proper dosage of a common blood-thinning drug, warfarin, which often produces adverse side effects because of its highly variable activity in patients.
Millions of people worldwide take worldwide to prevent stroke and blood clots, yet require expensive, constant testing from their physician to ensure proper dosage. These scientists' findings illustrate how the powerful DNA analysis tools of the Human Genome Project are leading to a new era of tailoring drugs and therapies to an individual's genome. Genomic medicine can lead to more-precise, personalized and cost- effective health care.
Medical advances always involve risk of harm, and genomic medicine is no exception. While technical issues require scientific research, we believe the challenges posed by genetic testing are far too critical to be left to the deliberation of scientists alone.
All members of society should have the opportunity to engage in collaborative discussion about the benefits and harms of genetic testing. Informed public discussion is vital to continue advances that hold so much promise for improving the value of health care.

Since Smith was a professor at a well known university, his forgetfulness was often an embarrassment. It wasn't that he was not claver, as some critical people tended to say, last very, very absentminded. One hot summer day, Professor Smith decided to take his children to a seaside town about a three-hour train ride away. To make the trip more interesting for his young children, he kept the name of the town a secret. However, by the time they arrived at the station, Smith forgot the name of the town he was planning to visit. Luckily, a friend of his happened to be in the station. He offered to take care of the children while Smith hurried back home to find out where he was going.
The professor's wife was surprised to see him again so soon.
"Oh, my dear, I forgot the name of the town. " "What？ You forgot the name？ Maybe one day you will forget my name ! Now I'll write the name of that town on a piece of paper, and you put it in your pocket and please, please don't forget where you put it."
Satisfied that she had solved the problem, she sent her husband off again. Ten minutes later she was astonished to see him outside the house for the third time. "What is the matter now？ " "As you told me, I didn’t forget where I put the name of that town, but I forgot where I left our children!"
This passage is mainly ______.
A．a careless professor
B．a famous professor
C．a foolish professor
D．a forgetful professor

Debate over the Use of Renewable Energy
Amusable of Rockefeller University in New York, US says the key renewable（可再生的） energy sources, including sun, wind and bibfuls, would all require vast amounts of land if developed up to large scale production--unlike nuclear power. That land would be far better________(51)alone, he says. Renewable look_______ (52) when they are quite small. But if we start producing renewable energy on a large________(53), the fallout(结果)is going to be horrible.
Amusable draws his conclusions by analyzing the amount of energy that renewable natural gas and nuclei（原子核）can________(54)in terms of power per square meter of land used. Moreover, he claims that_________(55)renewable energy use increases this measure of efficiency wail decrease as the best land for wind, bibfuls, and solar power gets used up.
Solar power is much more__________ (56) than bibful in used but it would still ________(57)150 square kilometers terms of the area of land of photovoltaic（光电的）cells to match the energy production of the 1000 MW nuclear plant. In another example, he says__________ (58)the 2005 US electricity demand via wind need 780,000 square kilometers, an area the__________(59)of Texas power alone would. However, several experts are highly critical of Amusable’s ________(60). John Turner of the US government’s National Renewable Energy Laboratory says that even if the US got all of its_______ (61) from solar energy, it would still need less than half the amount of land that has been _________(62) highways. Further, it need not ________(63)up additional land. The US could get a quarter of its energy just from covering rooftops of existing buildings, he says
According to Turner, the same “dual use” also_________(64) to wind power footprint for wind is only 5%of the land that it ___________(65) . Farmers can still farm the land that the turbines are on. Turner says looking solely at land use is an over-simplification of the issue.
