听力原文: As the new sales director for a national computer firm, Alex Gordon was looking forward to his first meeting with the company's district managers. Everyone arrived on time, and Alex's presentation went extremely well. He decided to end the meeting with the conversation about the importance of the district managers to the company's plans. "I believe we are going to continue to increase our share of the market," he began, "because of the quality of the people in this room. The district manager is the key to the success of the sales representatives in his district. He sets the term for everyone else. If he has ambitious goals and is willing to put in long hours, everyone in his unit will follow his example." When Alex was finished, he received polite applauses, but hardly the warm response he had hoped for. Later he spoke with one of the senior managers. "Things were going so well until the end", Alex said disappointedly. "Obviously, I said the wrong thing." "Yes", the district manager replied. "Half of our managers are women. Most have worked their way up from sales representatives, and they are very proud of the role they played in the company's growth. They don't care at all about political correctness. But they were definitely surprised and distressed to be referred to as 'he' in your speech. "

B.Regular customers.

If there is any single factor that makes success in living, it is the ability to be benefited by defeat. Every success I know has been achieved because the person was able to analyze (分析) defeat and actually learn something from it in his next undertaking (从事的工作). Wrongly taking defeat for failure, you are sure indeed to fail, for it isn't defeat that makes you fail; it is your own refusal to see the guide and encouragement to success in defeat.
Defeats are nothing to be afraid of. They are common incidents in the life of every man who achieves success. But defeat is a dead loss unless you do face it, analyze it and learn why you failed. Defeat, in other words, can help to get rid of its own cause. Not only does defeat prepare us for success but nothing can cause within us such a strong wish to succeed. If you left a baby grasp a stick and try to pull it away, he will hold it more and more tightly until his whole weight is hung up. It is this same reaction that should give you new and greater strength every time you are defeated. If you make full use of the power which defeat gives; you can compete with it far more than you are able to.
How much does the writer know about success?
[A] He knows at least several examples of success.
[B] He knows every success in life.
[C] He knows every success that has been achieved by man.
[D] It is not referred to.

Is that label accurate? Is it intolerant to challenge another's opinion? It depends on what definition of opinion you have in mind. For example, you may ask a friend, "What do you think of the new Ford cars?" And he may reply, "In my opinion, they're ugly." In this case, it would not only be intolerant to challenge his statement, but foolish. For it's obvious that by opinion he means his personal preference, a matter of taste. And as the old saying goes, "It's pointless to argue about matters of taste."
But consider this very different use of the term. A newspaper reports that the Supreme Court has delivered its opinion in a controversial case. Obviously the justices did not state their personal preferences, their mere likes and dislikes. They stated their considered judgment, painstakingly arrived at after thorough inquiry and deliberation.
Most of what is referred to as opinion falls somewhere between these two extremes. It is not an expression of taste. Nor is it careful judgment. Yet it may contain elements of both. It is a view or belief more or less casually arrived at, with or without examining the evidence.
Is everyone entitled to his opinion? Of course, this is not only permitted, but guaranteed. We are free to act on our opinions only so long as, in doing so, we do not harm others.
Which of the following statements is TRUE, according to the author?
A.Everyone has a right to hold his own opinion.
B.Free expression of opinions often leads to confusion.
C.Most people tend to be careless in forming their opinions.
D.Casual use of the word "opinion" often brings about quarrels.

听力原文: Elvis Presley is often referred to as the"King of Rock and Roll"or simply"the King".He achieved unusually wide success in country music,pop ballads and blues.
When Elvis Presley died on August 16,1977,he began to be recognized as an American myth.Today, there are over 625 active Elvis fan clubs worldwide.Graceland,Elvis'home and eternal resting place,is one of the most-visited historic homes in America.
So why, after years,is the world stuck on Elvis?The answers lie in culture: Elvis Presley is American myth personified.He is greater than the sum of his songs and movies;he symbolizes the American dream.Born in poverty in 1935,Elvis used his innate talent and started his career in 1954.He rose above his condition and achieved his dreams,without coming from a socially connected,politically powerful,or wealthy family.Globally,he has sold over ten billion records,more than any other artist,only to die young and leave behind a growing legion of fans.
Those fans choose to overlook Elvis'drug dependency and other excessive behavior,preferring instead to recall what they saw as his better nature.During his lifetime,Elvis donated money to charities and bought gifts for the poor and for his family and friends.Furthermore,the hometown boy,young Elvis,who made good, never left the comfort of Memphis,always keeping close to his roots,remembering the people and the places from which he came.
What did Elvis Presley succeed in?
A.Opera music.
B.Drama.
C.Country music.
D.Polities.
