听力原文： Researching friendship，psychologist Lillian Rubin spent two years interviewing more than two hundred women and men. No matter what their age，their sex，the results were completely clear. Women have more friendships than men，and the difference in the content and the quality of those friendships is“marked and unmistakable”.
More than two-thirds of the single men，Rubin interviewed，could not name a best friend. Those who could were likely to name a woman. Yet three-quarters of the single women had no problem naming a best friend，and almost always it was a woman. More married men than women named their wife/husband as a best friend，most trusted person，or the one they would turn to in time of emotional distress. “Most women. ”says Rubin，“identified at least one，usually more，trusted friends to whom they could turn to in a troubled moment，and they spoke openly about the importance of these relationships in their lives. ”
“In general，”Rubin writes in her new book，“women's friendships with each other rest on shared emotions and support，but men's relationships are marked by shared activities. ”“Even when a man is said to be a best friend，”Rubin writes，“the two share little about their innermost feelings. Whereas a woman's closest female friend might be the first to tell her to leave fl failing marriage，it wasn't unusual to hear a man say he didn't know his friend's marriage was in serious trouble until he appeared one night asking if he could sleep on the sofa. ”

听力原文： In this lesson, I want to talk about the history of The White House. At first, most Americans didn't think there was anything particularly special about the White House. Few had ever seen it or had any idea what it looked like, and even the families who lived there found it completely inadequate. When it was built, the White House was the largest house in the country and it remained so until after the Civil War. But it served so many different purposes that little of it was available for the First Family to actually live in. The first floor, or "State Floor" was made up entirely of public rooms; and the president's offices, which where staffed by as many as 30 employees, took half of the second floor up. The First Family had to get by with the eight or fewer second-floor rooms that were left. By Lincoln's time, the situation was intolerable. The White House was open to visitors; office seekers, and the merely curious had no difficulty making their way upstairs from the official rooms on the first floor. Lincoln was so uncomfortable with the situation that he had a private corridor constructed. He also received a $ 20, 000 appropriation to improve the furnishings of the White House. The new furnishings did not last for more than a few years. When Lincoln was assassinated in 1865, the White House fell into disarray. No one really supervised the White House during' the first five weeks.

听力原文： Mark Twain who wrote the story we are going to read traveled quite a lot, often because circumstances, usually financial circumstances forced him to. He was horn in Florida Missouri in 1835 and moved to Hannibal Missouri with family when he was about 4 years old. Most people think he was born in Hannibal, but that is not true. After his father died when he was about 12, Twain worked in Hannibal for a while and then left, so that he could earn more money. He worked for a while as a typesetter on various newspapers, and then got a job as a river pilot on Mississippi River. Twain loved this job, many of his books show it. The river pilot job didn't last, however, because of the outbreak of the Civil War. Twain was in the confederate army for just two weeks, and then he and his whole company went west to get away from the war and the army. In Nevada and California, Twain prospected for silver and gold without much luck, but did succeed as a writer. Once that happened Twain traveled around the country giving lectures and earning enough money to go to Europe. Twain didn't travel much the last ten years of his life and he didn't publish much either. Somehow his travels, even when forced, inspired his writings. Like many other popular writers, Twain derived much of the materials for his writing from the wealth and diversity of his own personal experiences.
The speaking focused on which aspect of Mark Twain's life？
A．His travels.
B．His short stories.
C．His finances.
D．His family.
第9题

Morning, noon and night
The long-hours culture at work
Working an eight-hour day is a luxury for most professional people. Nowadays, the only way to guarantee an eight-hour working day is to have the kind of job where you clock on and off. Those professionals who have managed to limit their hours to what was, 20 years ago, the average do not wish to identify themselves. 'I can quite easily achieve my work within a normal day, but I don't like to draw attention to it,' says one sales manager. 'People looked at me when I left at 5 o'clock. Now, I put paperwork in my bag. People assume I'm doing extra hours at home.'
But more typical is Mark, who works as an account manager. He says, 'My contract says I work from 9 until 5 with extra hours as necessary. It sounds as if the extra hours are exceptional. In fact, my job would be enough not only for me, but also for someone else part-time. The idea of an eight-hour day makes me laugh!' He says he has thought about going freelance but realises that this doesn't guarantee better working hours.
Professor Cary Cooper, occupational psychologist at the University of Manchester, is the author of the annual Quality of Working Life survey. The most recent survey found that 77% of managers in Britain work more than their contracted hours, and that this is having a damaging effect on their health, relationships and productivity. Professor Cooper is critical of the long-hours culture. He says that while bosses believe long hours lead to greater efficiency, there is no evidence to support this. 'In fact, the evidence shows that long hours make you iii.'
There are, he says, steps that can be taken. One is to accept that the in-tray will never be empty. 'There are always things to do. You just have to make the rule that on certain days you go home early.' Prioritising work and doing essential tasks first helps, he says. He also thinks it's time to criticise bad employers and unreasonable terms of employment. 'By all means, show commitment where necessary but when expectations are too high, people have to begin saying openly that they have a life outside of work.'
Personal development coach Mo Shapiro agrees that communication is important. Staff need to talk to managers about the working practices within a company. Both parties should feel that the expectations are realistic and allow them to have responsibilities and interests outside work. She recognises, however, that in many organisations the response might well be, 'If you want more interests outside work, then find another job'.
She believes that senior staff have a duty to set an example. 'I recently worked for a firm of solicitors where the partners started at 7.30am. What kind of message is that to send to the staff？' She believes there is no shame in working sensible hours - in fact quite the reverse. 'Some people might be in at 7.30 but will be doing very little. You can work really hard from 9 to 5 and achieve the same. If you find it difficult to achieve an eight-hour day, there is, as a last resort, the old trick of leaving your jacket on your chair and your computer switched on, even after you have left the building.'
What does the writer say in the first paragraph about people who work an eight-hour day？
A．They are reluctant to admit to this,
B．They are disliked by their colleagues.
C．They are limited to certain professions.
D．They often catch up on work in the evenings.
