听力原文： After the death of my grandfather, I got the genealogy bug. It started with the gathering of family photos and progressed to writing a family history. Several years ago, I took another step and began creating a Website for the Stovalls. During this initiative, I also pursued the Wallace, Cox, Raney, and other related family lines.

One day I received an email about the Wallace line from a fellow named Ron Ritchie. Although I lived in Birmingham, Alabama, and he lived in Dallas, Texas, he had some Wallaces from the same area from which mine originated. We corresponded several times, after which he passed the baton to his daughter, Connie. She emailed me, and after six months or so, we reached the conclusion that we were not related.

With no more data to work on, we chatted about other interests and one thing led to another. The end result？ This shy Alabama-born boy found himself flying to Dallas to meet a girl. During several subsequent trips, we explored the sights, met each other's families, and plotted our lives. In December of 1997, my genealogical penpal and I were married. Our search for roots had led instead to a fresh branch on our now combined family tree. I think it's only fair to give our ancestors the credit!

When did I begin my genealogy research？

A．After the death of my father.

B．After the death of my grandfather.

C．After the death of my mother.

D．After the death of my grandmother.

听力原文： A new study reports the common drug aspirin greatly reduces life-threatening problems after an operation to replace blocked blood vessels to the heart. More than 800,000 people around the world have this heart surgery each year. The doctors who carried out the study say giving aspirin to patients soon after the operation could save thousands of lives. People usually take aspirin to control pain, and reduce high body temperature. Doctors also advise some people to take aspirin to help prevent heart attacks. About 10% ～ 15% of these heart operations end in death or damage to the heart or other organs. The new study shows that even a small amount of aspirin reduced such threats. The doctors said the chance of death for patients who took aspirin would fall by 67 %. They claimed this was true if the aspirin was given within 48 hours of the operation. The doctors believe aspirin helps heart surgery patients because it can prevent blood from thickening, and blood vessels from being blocked. However, the doctors warned that people who have stomach bleeding or other bad reactions from aspirin should not take it after heart surgery.

(30)

A．It has been proven to be. the best pain-killer.

听力原文： At this moment some 170, 000 young people throughout Britain are suffering what is potentially the most tense and anxious time of their lives. That is the number of students currently preparing to sit for their A-levels -- examinations which will decide whether a student proceeds smoothly on to the next level of the academic ladder or whether six years of work at secondary- school level will end in the bitter disappointment of failure.

In the medical "stress-charts", examinations rank somewhere behind a death in the family, a divorce or even the loss of a job; but the symptoms of anxiety are all the more weakening because they are before the event rather than after it, but many in themselves are enough to bring about the student's worst fears -- failing.

The most crucial point about pre-examination stress is that it is something the student catches from other people. He or she is not, after all, the only person with an interest in the examination result. The pride of parents is risky, and of teachers who may see the results as measure of their own professional worth. The line between well-intentioned encouragement and harmful pressure can be a fine one, and easily crossed.

(30)

A．117,000.

B．17,000.

C．170,000.

D．1,070.

听力原文： Two teenagers were killed in the Gaza Strip on Wednesday. Reports allege the two

听力原文： Two teenagers were killed in the Gaza Strip on Wednesday.

Reports allege the two died when Palestinian police opened fire on rioters protesting at a death sentence handed down against a local man for slaying a policeman.

But Palestinian police chief General Ghazi Jabali denied his men were responsible for the killings and in- stead blamed the Israeli army, which in turn rejected his accusations outright.

Relatives identified the dead youths as Ala al-Hams, and Khamis Mahmud Salama, both 17.

Another six people, including a 10-year-old boy, were wounded in the violence which erupted in Yabna refugee camp after a Gaza City security court condemned Raed al-Attar to death for the February killing of a policeman.

"They were killed and their comrades wounded when Israeli soldiers on a lookout post near the Egyptian border opened fire on the crowd," Jahali told a press conference.

The Israelis were responding to shots fired by unknown assailants driving in a car near Rafah, in the south of the Gaza Strip, he said.

"During that time, the Palestinian police did not intervene," Jabali said.

"We categorically reject all these accusations about a supposed Israeli army role in these incidents," an Israeli army spokesman told reporters. "No Israeli soldier in the Gaza Strip was involved in any of the shots which caused casualties.'

Attar, 25, a Palestinian security force member, was accused of acting as a double agent for the Islamic Resistance Movement or Hamas, the main movement opposed to Yasser Arafat's Palestinian Authority and its peace accords with Israel.

An associate, Mohammed Abu Shamallah, 25, was sentenced to life in prison and a third man, Ossama Abu Tahar, 24, was jailed for 15 years at hard labor for involvement in the shooting.

It was the first time the Palestinian Authority has handed down the death sentence against a suspected member of Harms.

But it was not known if Arafat would sign the death warrant or commute Attar’s sentence to life in prison as he has done in all but three previous murder cases.

More than 2,500 people joined a funeral procession for Hamas, which turned into a protest march against the Palestinian Authority as it crossed Rafah to the local cemetery.

How many people were wounded in the violence erupted in Yabna refugee camp after Raed al-Attar was condemned to death？

A．17.

B．6.

C．20.

D．25.

听力原文：M: Welcome back, I didn't see you in math class on Friday.

W: I wasn't here on Friday. My geology class went on a field trip to look at some of the different rock formations here in California. Our last stop was Death Valley. In fact, We camped there last night.

M: Death Valley？ But that's desert. Wasn't it much too hot for camping？

W: No, not really. It gets hot during the day, but it cools off very quickly at night. There is no moisture in the air to hold the heat after the sun goes down. If it were humid, it would stay hot all night.

M: Well, did you enjoy the trip？

W: It was fascinating. 'The desert is nicer than you might think. Since there is so little vegetation growing, it's very easy to see different rock layers, folds and such, and the natural colors of rocks are wonderful. The rocks have made brilliant colors, blues, pinks and greens. You really should go to see it sometime.

(20)

A．Preparing for rite math exam.

B．Viewing an art exhibit.

C．Participating in a special class activity.

D．Packing for her vacation.

听力原文：St. Valentine's Day has roots in several different legends that have found their

听力原文： St. Valentine's Day has roots in several different legends that have found their way to us through the ages. One of the earliest popular symbols of the day is Cupid, the Roman god of love, who is represented by the image of a young boy with bow and arrow.

Three hundred years after the death of Jesus Christ, the Roman emperors still demanded that everyone believe in the Roman gods. Valentine, a Christian priest, had been thrown in prison for his teachings. On February 14, Valentine was beheaded, not only because he was a Christian, but also because he had performed a miracle. He supposedly cured the jailer's daughter of her blindness. The night before he was executed, he wrote the jailer's daughter a farewell letter, signing it "From Your Valentine." Another legend tells us that this same Valentine, well-loved by all, received notes to his jail cell from children and friends who missed him.

Another Valentine was an Italian bishop who lived at about the same time, AD 200. He was imprisoned because he secretly married couples, contrary to the laws of the Roman emperor. Some legends say he was burned at the stake.
