听力原文: (29) The recent increase in car stealing has alarmed the police, who are looking for what they now believe must be a well-organized gang of professional car thieves.
Most of the thefts have taken place in the rich residential areas round South-well Park, where last week alone, twenty-two car thefts were reported to the local police. Of course, (30)only one has been found abandoned in Rocking-hill Palace road twenty miles away. The others have not been found yet, except tot one which had been falsely reported missing. The owner later admitted that he had forgotten where he had parked it a few days before.
An interesting aspect of these thefts is that nearly all the missing vehicles have been taken from locked garages. The owners now admitted that they may have left the car doors unlocked, but only one owner was not certain whether he had locked the garage dour. The police have therefore assumed that the gang find it easier to break into garages, where vehicles are often left unlocked at night, than into locked cars, parked on the road-side in day time or at night. (31)They advise car owner to lock up their cars, even when they are kept in locked garages.
(30)
A.The increase in driving offences.
B.The increase in professional gangs.
C.The increase in car stealing.

听力原文: In Greece only rich people will rest in peace forever when they die. Most of the population, however, will be undisturbed for only three years. Then they will be dug up, washed, compressed into a small tin box and placed in a bone room. If the body has only partially decayed, it is reburied in a smaller cheaper grave, but not for long the body will be dug up again some time later when it has fully decayed. Buying a piece of land for a grave is the only way to avoid this process. The cost of the grave is so great that most people choose to rent a grave for three years and even after being dug up, lasting peace is still not guaranteed. If no one pays for renting space in a bone room, the skeleton is removed and stored in a building in a poor part of the town. Lack of space in Athens is the main reason why the dead are dug up after the three years. The city is so overcrowded that, sometimes, dead bodies are kept in hospitals for over a week until a grave is found. Athens' city council wants to introduce cremation ,that is, burning dead bodies as a means of dealing with the problem. But the Greek Church resists this practice. They believe the only place where people burn is hell. So burning dead bodies is against the Greek concept of life after death. To save space, the church suggested burying the bodies standing up instead of lying down. Some people purposed building multi-storey underground graveyards.
(33)
A.Rent a grave.
B.Bury the body.
C.Bury the dead near a church.
D.Buy a piece of land for a grave.

Before 1910 actors were employed in films without their names being given because the producers were afraid that if an actor became well known, he might demand more money. But later, it became known that a film with a popular actor in it could be sold at a higher price to theater owners than a film in which the actor was not known. Soon "movie stars" won fame wherever films were shown. By 1915, the most popular stars were earning as much as $ 2, 000 a week, and large theaters were being built downtown in all the larger cities to show films alone. The films shown in those theaters were of several types: comedies emphasizing speed, movement and camera tricks; serious dramas, often with a patriotic theme; "westerns", which showed, then as now, the American cowboy fighting on the side of law and justice; murder mysteries and crime stories, and special films on art, music and other cultural subjects.
Pictures of parades shown in the first films went on for no more than ____.
A.one minute
B.a whole hour
C.20 minutes
D.about two minutes

"Well now, Dad." she said, "I'm going to have you all to my- self for a whole week. You must be very obedient."
"I hope you aren' t going to boss me, Molly. You' re walking me out of breath already. We mustn' t pass Mrs. Goodmays in our hurry." They crossed the street to speak to Mrs. Goodmays, one of the doctor' s patients. "We' ve just been seeing my wife and her daughter off to London. They've gone up for a week."
"Dear me, to London, and only for a week!" said Mrs. Goodmays, with surprise. "It seems hardly worth the packing. It'll be lonely for you, Molly, without your stepsister."
"Yes," said Molly, suddenly feeling as if she ought to have taken this view of the case. "I' 11 miss Cynthia."
"And you, Dr. Gibson, I hope you won' t feel like widower once again. You must come and have supper with me one evening. What about Tuesday?"
Dr. Gibson felt a sharp blow on his leg from the toe of Molly' s shoe, but even so he accepted the invitation, much to the old lady' s satisfaction.
A moment later Molly said to him, "How could you go and waste one of our precious evening! We' ve only got five now. I' ve been planning all sorts of things for us to do tonight." "What sort of things'?."
"Oh, I don' t know. Things you used to like." She looked at him boldly. "Forbidden things now."
Her father's eyes lit up, but his face remained serious. "I'm not going to be pulled down, Molly. With hard work and sensible guidance I' ye reached a very fair height of civilized behavior, and there I' m going to stay."
"Oh, no, you' re not. We' re having bread and cheese for sup
per tonight, in armchairs in front of the TV ! And you shall wear your dressing - gown at breakfast tomorrow--and every morning for a week ! And you shall read the paper at the dining-table f That' s only a start. I haven' t finished by a long way yet."
What were Molly's feelings as they walked home?
A.She was looking forward to Mrs. Gibson's return.
B.She was delighted to be alone with her father.
C.She hated being apart from Cynthia.

Memory
One day more than fifty years ago, a young man had an accident on his motor-bike in which he suffered a few apparently minor injuries.There was a bruise (淤青) on the left side of his forehead and some slight bleeding from his left ear.He was taken to hospital for examination but X-rays did not reveal any other injuries. Nevertheless, the doctor who was treating him decided to keep him in hospital for further observations because the young man was having difficulty in speaking and seemed very confused.
At the time of the accident, the young man was 22 years old, and the date was Au-gust, 1933.A week later, he was able to carry on what seemed a perfectly normal conver-sation.However, he told the doctor that he was only 11 years old and that the date was February, 1922.What is more, he could not remember anything that had happened since 1922.For example, he could not recall having spent five years in Australia, or coming back to England and working for two years on a golf course.
As time went by, part of his memory of the eleven missing years come back.A few weeks later, he even remembered his years in Australia.But the two years of his life just before the accident were still a completely a blank.Three weeks after his injury, he went back to the village where he had been living for those two years.Everything seemed unfa-miliar and he did not recall ever having been there before.Despite this, he was able to take up his old job again in the village and to do it satisfactorily.But he often got lost when walking around the village and found it difficult to remember what he had done during the day.
Slowly, however, his memory continued to return so that, about ten weeks after the accident, he could even remember most of the previous two years.There remained only one complete gap in his memory: he could remember absolutely nothing about what.he had done a few minutes immediately before the accident or the accident itself. This part of his memory never came back.
第 41 题 When did the accident happen?
A.In February 1922.
B.A few years ago.
C. when the young man was in Australia.
D.Over half a century ago.
