听力原文： Doctors in Chicago said on Monday they reached their conclusions on the fat question after examining 815 people aged 65 and older who did not have Alzheimer's at the start of a nearly four-year study.

At the end of the study the researchers found that 131 people had developed Alzheimer's, the debilitating disease that leads to memory loss and eventual physical incapacity.

听力原文：Generalizing about education in the United States involves some risk because educ

听力原文： Generalizing about education in the United States involves some risk because education is spread around and standards vary from place to Place. Even more, diversity is the feature of American education.

Education is largely a public function in America but religious and private institutions do sponsor schools. These private schools, particularly in the primary and secondary field, are now enjoying a revival.

Most children in America begin school in a kindergarten class at age five. There follows eight years of primary education, then four years of high school. Education is compulsory until about age 16. The existence of large minorities, many with a primary language other than English, complicates the educational process. Many Americans do not believe that their school standards are high enough. The high rate of functional illiteracy gives evidence to this charge.

Higher education in America is widespread with about 1,800 post-secondary institutions. These include two-year community colleges, four-year undergraduate colleges and universities, and many schools which have extensive graduate programs. Some schools are privately funded, and more receive the majority of their funding from public sources. There is a great range of quality between higher educational institutions and some universities have outstanding academic records. These quality differences may be overemphasized for many unfamous schools have excellent programs. In the long run, the individual determines the education he gets.

(30)

A．There are no fixed standards.

B．Spreading brings much diversity.

C．There are too many private schools.

D．Fund origins are various.

听力原文： After two decades of growing student enrollments and economic prosperity, busine

ss schools in the United States have started to face harder times. Only Harvard's MBA School showed a substantial increase in enrollment in the 1993 school year. Both Princeton and Stanford have seen decreases in their enrollments. Since 1990, the number of people receiving Masters in Business Administration MBA degrees, has dropped about 3 percent to 75, 000, and the trend of lower enrollment rates is expected to continue.

There are two factors causing this decrease in students seeking an MBA degree. The first one is that many graduates of four-year colleges are finding that an MBA degree is not a guarantee for a plush job on Wall Street, or in other financial districts of major American cities. Many of the entry-level management jobs are going to students graduating with Master of Arts degrees in English and the humanities as well as those holding MBA degrees. Students have asked the question," Is an MBA degree really what I need to be best prepared for getting a good job？" The second major factor has been the cutting of American payrolls and the lower number of entry-level jobs being offered. Business needs are changing, and MBA schools are struggling to meet the new demands.

What is the main idea of the talk？

A．Schools offering MBA courses.

B．Economic prosperity brought by MBA graduates.

C．Changes in enrollment for MBA schools.

D．How to obtain an MBA degree.
