Poetry doesnt matter to most people. One has to wonder if poetry has any place in the 21

st century, when music videos and satellite television offer daunting competition for poems, which demand a good deal of attention and considerate analytic skills, as【M1】______ well as some knowledge of the traditions of poetry. In the 19th century, poets like Scott, Byron, and Longfellow had huge audiences around the world. Their works were best sellers, yet they were cultural heroes as well. But readers had few【M2】______ choices in those days. One imagines, perhaps false, that people【M3】______ actually liked poetry. It provided them with narratives that entertained and inspired. They gave them words to attach to their【M4】______ feelings. They enjoyed folk ballads, too. In the sense, music and【M5】______ poetry joined hands. In the 20th century, something went to amiss. Poetry became【M6】______ "difficult". That is, poets began to reflect the complex of modern【M7】______ culture, its fierce disjunctions. The poems of Ezra Pound, Hilda Doolittle and T.S. Eliot asked a lot of the reader, including a range of cultural references to topics when even in the early 1900s had【M8】______ become little known. To read Pound and Eliot with easy, for【M9】______ instance, one needed some knowledge of Greek and Latin poetry. That kind of learning had been fairly common among educated readers in the past. The same could be said for most readers in the【M10】______ 20th century—or today, when education has become more democratized and the study of the classics has been relegated to a small number of enthusiasts.

听力原文： Before the 20th century, the horse provided day to day transportation in the Uni

ted States. Trains were used only for long-distance transportation.

Today the car is the most popular sort of transportation in all of the United States. It has completely replaced the horse as a means of everyday transportation. Americans use their car for nearly 90 percent of all personal trips.

Most Americans are able to buy cars. The average price of a recently made car was $ 2050 in 1950, $ 2740 in 1960 and up to $ 4750 in 1975. During this period American car manufacturers set about improving their products and work efficiency. As a result, the yearly income of the average family increased from 1950 to 1975 faster than the price of cars. For this reason purchasing a new car takes a smaller part of a family's total earnings today.

What was the only use of trains before the 20th century？

A．The use for short-distance transportation.

B．The use for day to day transportation.

C．The use for long-distance transportation.

D．The use for transportation of precious things.

Changes in the American FamilyHow much change has really occurred in the American family a

Changes in the American Family

How much change has really occurred in the American family and what are the implications of these changes？ First, the household size has changed greatly since 1790. From 1790 to 1978 the mean family size was cut in half from 5.79 persons to 2.81 persons. In 1790 almost 63 percent of all persons lived in the households of five or more people. By 1978 the size accounted for a little over 14 percent of all households.

By the end of the 19th century a majority of Americans were living in urban areas, and the family was very much influenced By the rapid development of industrialization. With the arrival of immigrants, the urban population was increasingly heterogeneous(由不同成分组成的). This challenges the exclusiveness of any single family pattern.

In the 20th century, the ideal American family consisted of a husband and wife living with dependent children. They lived in a household of their own provided for by the husband's earnings. The wife was responsible for emotional maintenance of the marriage and for raising the children and running the household.

The major change in the family in this century has been due to married women entering the work force. This, at least for periods of time, has taken the woman out of her full-time involvement in the home. Of all husband and wife families about 40% have both in the work force at any given time.

In the past the identity of the individual was submerged in the family. In general, reputation in the community came from the family. Today, however, whatever individuals achieve is usually assessed on its own merit, and family has little relevance. Individuals make it or don't make it essentially on their own.

A sociologist describes another way in which the American family has changed. Today, in the Western world, the major burdens that are a part of the family system are emotional ones. But in the 19th century the family was much more involved with economic needs and tasks; family and relatives were valued for providing assistance during crisis.

What can we infer from the figures about the American household size in the first paragraph？

A．In the 20th century, there are some families without children.

B．Most of the families in the 19th century had five or more children.

C．More and more Americans tend to live with their parents after marriage.

D．Fourteen percent of the U.S. families now have five or more children:
