听力原文: Ask a typical American to name the biggest business in the United States, and

youre likely to get an answer such as "banking" or "automobile manufacturing". Neither is correct. The right reply is surprisingly obvious when you consider what 235 million people do at least three times a day — they eat. The food business is by far Americas largest enterprise. And an increasingly large part of that business comes not from growing the food or selling it in Americas stores, but from distributing it. In every corner of the nation, the distribution network works 24 hours a day, moving food by truck, train, ship and frequently by airplane. It has been estimated that there are more than 135,000 different grocery products, ranging from bottles of fresh milk to cans of cooked fish, constantly being moved through the system. Food in America is moved by a network that is so complicated that no one has ever been able to figure it out. There is no central governmental supervision of the system, although scores of government agencies at the federal, state and local levels have responsibilities for regulating the safety, shipment and sale of food. The system would seem to be one of complete disorder, and to the outsider who examines it, it is. But it works with amazing efficiency. Questions 19 to 21 are based on the passage you have just heard. 19. According to the passage, which is the biggest business in America? 20. How many different grocery products are being sold in America? 21. According to the passage, what is the increasingly large part of the business?20.

A.135,000.

B.350000

C.515,000.

D.531000

听力原文:M: Have you ever looked really closely at the snowflake?

W: Sure, but they usually melt too fast for me to get a close look. Why do you ask?

M: I'm just curious. I was reading an article about the formation of snowflakes, and I real- ized that I had never paid much attention to them before.

W: WeI1, there is a big variety, isn't there?

M: Yes, but they all have one of the three basic forms: hexagonal columns, thin hexagonal plates and the blanching starshaped form.

W: I wonder why are forms different, maybe because ice starts to form. on dust particles with different shape.

M: Well, I thought it might have something, to do with the water saturation of the air. But we're both wrong. The author of this article did extensive research and concluded that. the shapes of snow crystals largely controlled by the temperature of the air. For example, the featherly star-shaped snowflake that everyone thinks is typical occurs only at a specific temperature.

W: Doesn't the relative humidity has anything to do with the shapes?

M: Apparently not. The effect of super saturation is simply to alter the growth rate. The greater the saturation, the faster the snowflakes form.

W: Why, next time when it snows. I'll make a point of taking a close look.

What are the people discussing?

A.Whether or not snowflakes can be analyzed.

B.How snowflakes are formed.

C.What causes a snowstorm.

D.Where the largest snowflakes can be found.
