PART B
Directions: For Questions 6-10, you will hear a passage. Use not more than 3 words for each answer. You will hear the recording twice. You now have 25 seconds to read the sentences and the questions below.
听力原文: Have you seen any good movies lately? Chances are that you saw it on a video cassette recorder, also known as a VCR. In the past few years VCRs have become cheap enough that many people can easily rent or even own one. These VCRs in the home have many uses; they give us much more freedom in watching our favorite movies and television programs. After being connected to any TV set, a VCR allows us to record a television program and watch it again - as many times as we like - in the future. Many video cassette recorders can record programs when we aren't home or even while we are watching another program on the same television. Most of all, people use VCRs to watch their favorite movies already recorded on a video cassette. These video cassette movies are often called "videos". Almost every movie you can think of has been made into a video; while these videos can be bought at a price between 30 mad 100 dollars, most people prefer to rent them from "video stores" often under a dollar a day. Available are videos that provide entertainment for the children; there is also a wide se lection of educational and "how-to" videos making learning more enjoyable. Of course, there are hundreds of movies-old and new-that have been reproduced onto video cassettes. Don't worry if you don't own a VCR; even these can be cheaply rented. VCRs have truly taken us out of the movie theater by bringing the movie to our homes.
In the past few years, many people can easily rent or even own a VCR because VCRs have become ______.

Sleep and Dreams
We often hear people ask the question, "What did you dream about last night?" This shows that dreaming is a very common experience. Everyone in normal health spends parts of the night dreaming. And just as there are many different types of dreams, there are a variety of dream functions. Let's look at just five.
The first is the function of the experience-monitoring dream. In this, the mind reviews past experience, that is, the experience of the previous day or some event in the more distant past. Such a review is a way of learning the lesson of that experience. Often the dream has an outcome different from what really happened. It represents a more, or less, desirable result. For example, after an unsuccessful interview for a job, you may dream that you are in the same room, before the same people, but now speaking calmly and effectively.
If that dream occurs before your interview, it may be of the creative type. This is another important function of the dream that helps solve problems by suggesting answers.
Freud and his followers attach greatest importance to the function of the wish-fulfilling dream. According to Freud, in our dreams we satisfy desires which our circumstances or personal limitations do not allow us to achieve. For example, a boy with little pocket money may dream a lot of coins falling from the sky. Such dreams are usually very sweet, but short-lived.
The fourth dream function is that which brings us to some external reality, usually by some sensory stimulus (感官刺激). For example, you dream that you are at or in a fire; you start up, and find a cigarette burning in your bedside ash-tray. In this way the senses send messages to the "sleeping" mind warning us of the need to awake in order to take some form. of action.
Finally, the predictive function (预见功能) of the dream, a function people are most uncertain about. But whether or not we believe in the possibility of events being predicted in dreams, the fact is that throughout the ages men have done so. One famous example is about the birth of Buddha. It is said that, one night before Buddha was born, his mother dreamed that a white elephant entered her womb (子宫). Ten months later she gave birth to this great religious leader.
The first paragraph suggests that both dreams and functions of dreams are
A.good to health.
B.bad to health.
C.unimportant in life.
D.of many types.

听力原文:1 You know, our manager has set a very high standard for us but not for himself. First, though it is generally understood that overtime constitutes work time, he often puts undue pressure on us to stay and finish work without paying extra for it. We think this practice should be prohibited. Besides, many employees believe that the manager set an unrealistic rime frame. for finishing projects. They often have no direct say in the deadline times. Some even argue this constitutes cruel and unusual punishment and shouldn't be permitted. Finally he even restricts employees from taking breaks to chat or even to go to the washroom. This practice is clearly a violation of the human rights and shouldn't be allowed.
2 Richard, I think you have done a perfect job. I am just amazed by it. Your knowledge in international contract law and chemical products just helped us win the project quite smoothly. At first, our chances were slim because we have been in this field only for three years, and I never expected we could make it so easily. To be honest, things were not to our advantage at first and we had too many competitors. I even prepared for the failure. However, your effort just changed the idea of the board. They were convinced by your strategies and goals. They even said you are the most employee they have ever seen. Your contribution to the company is really valuable and will be remembered.
3 I have been working here for 20 years. Every day all I have to do is to trot up costs and profits on the computer. It's the same job and the same office year after year. No challenge, no creation. I can't imagine how I can stay here for the rest of my life. I don't want to say I hate the job but I am not interested in it any more even though I am often praised by the manager and get better paid. I am just fed up with it. I am the kind of person who wants to try new things and who likes changes. To be honest, I like working with people rather than dealing with all these boring figures.
4 I am sure our latest product will have some problems. There is something wrong with the design because the engine is making some strange noises. It seems to me that there might be a slight crack in one part of it. But I'm not quite sure. I understand that the models we produced before never have this kind of problem. It just makes me uneasy because our company is the leading manufacturer of this kind of engine and our products are sold everywhere in the world. The problem will certainly damage our reputation. As the contract is due in a couple of weeks, our time is certainly pressing. We'd better have a meeting immediately and think out what we can do about it.
5 You have been working here for so many years. How can you make such stupid mistakes in the invoice. As far as I know this is not the first time. The same things happened a year before considering you had just changed the job, we forgave you then. You know the loss you brought to the company this time -- $50,000 ! It's almost half of profits for this month. This does not include our established reputation in the feild. I even don't know how to report this to the headquarter. No, don't give me any excuses. The company does not pay you to make mistakes. We have already paid too much for that. We need someone who can really accomplish the job; I hope you can understand that.
