听力原文： Before World War n, we spent our summer holidays in Hungary. I have only the

dim memory of the house we lived in, of my room and my toys. Nor do I recall clearly the large family of grandparents, aunts, uncles and cousins who gathered next door. But I do have a clear memory of the dogs, the farm animals, the local birds, and above all, the nature. Im a naturalist, not a scientist. I have a strong love of the natural world and my enthusiasm has led me into varied investigations. I love discussing my favourite topics and enjoy burning the midnight oil while reading about other peoples observations and discoveries. Then something happens and brings these observations together in my conscious mind. Suddenly you fancy you see the answer to the riddle, because it all seems to fit together. This has resulted in my publishing 300 papers and books, which some might honor with the title of scientific research. But curiosity, a keen eye, a good memory and enjoyment of the animal and plant world do not make a scientist: one of the outstanding and essential qualities required is self-discipline, a quality I lack. A scientist requires not only self-discipline but hard training, determination and a goal. A scientist, up to a point, can be made. A naturalist is born. If you can combine the two, you get the best of both worlds. Questions 23 to 25 are based on the passage you have just heard. 23. Why couldnt the speaker remember his relatives clearly？ 24. What can be inferred about the speaker from the passage？ 25. Why did the speaker think he was a naturalist rather than a scientist？23．

A．He was first of all a scientist.

B．He was not only a naturalist but also a scientist.

C．He was no more than a born naturalist.

D．He was a scientist as well as a naturalist.

第6题

Human beings act in a different way from that of animals just because they can speak while

animals cannot. Even the cleverest animals cannot do things which to us seem very simple and which small children, as soon as they learn to talk, would be able to do. A German scientist, who made experiments for many years with big apes, found that his apes could use sticks as tools to pull down bananas which they could not reach. But they only used the stick to get a banana when both the stick and the banana were in view at the same time. If the banana was in front of them and the stick was behind them, they could not use the stick. They could not bear the banana in mind long enough to look around and pick up the stick and then use it. The reason for this is clear. We have words for banana and stick which help us to think about these things when they are not in sight. Even a small child knowing the words "banana" and "stick" has an idea of their relationship and is able to think of "stick" together with "banana" and to remember this long enough to pick the stick from behind and use it on the banana. Unable to speak, animals cannot keep their knowledge of things for long. That is why they often interrupt one line of action to something else and later forget it completely. Human beings, on the other hand, use language and are able to go after one thing continuously and do it with a definite aim.

Human beings and animals act very differently because______.

A．human beings know how to use a stick while animals don"t know

B．human beings can think while animals can"t

C．human beings have a good memory while animals haven"t

D．human beings can speak while animals can"t

听力原文：In the earliest times, men considered lightning to be one of the great mysteries

听力原文： In the earliest times, men considered lightning to be one of the great mysteries of nature. Some ancient people believed that lightning and thunder were the weapons of the gods. In reality lightning is a flow of electricity from high above the earth.

The American scientist and statesman, Benjamin Franklin, was the first to show the connection between electricity 'and lightning in 1752. In the same year he also built the first lightning rod. This device protects buildings from damage by lightning.

In the United States alone lightning kills an average of one person every day. The safest place to be in case of an electrical storm is in a closed car. Outside, one should go to low ground and not get under trees. Also, one should stay out of water and away from metal fences. Inside a house, people should avoid opening doors and windows and touch wires or metal things.

What did people once think about lightning？

A．It was a natural phenomenon.

B．It was a weapon.

The young man asked, "How, Mr. Addison, can you invent so many things and achieve your fame？"

The scientist said, "It seems that you have been thinking of becoming famous every day."

The young man nodded, "Yes. I have been dreaming of being a person as notable as you. Every minute I am thinking of how to become reputable. I don' t know when I can achieve my fame."

Addison told him, "Don't worry, young man. If you want to be a famous man this way, you will have to wait until you die!"

"Why should I？" the young man was puzzled.

Addison said, "What you dream is actually a high building. You never think of how to build it with bricks. Thus the building will never come into reality. However, your story can serve as a mirror. People will remember you because of your illness and laziness. They will often speak of your name while they give warnings to their children. Aren't you a notorious person by then？"

听力原文：W: It's well-known science fiction plot to freeze a body and bring it back to lif

e years later. However, this may no longer be so far from the truth. Joining us from our Cardiff studio is Professor Andrew Morgan, who's been doing some research into this subject. Professot Morgan.

M: Yes, well, I've been looking into the ability of certain animals to freeze themselves for a certain amount of time, and then to come back to life when the circumstances around them change. And, what I've been working on over the past two years is the particular process that enables them to do this.

W: What have you actually discovered？

M: I think it's a particular chemical in the animals' bodies which begins to work under certain circumstances. And I'm now experimenting with this chemical to see if I can get other animals that wouldn't normally be able to freeze themselves to be able to do this.

W: Have you had any success？

M: I have so far. It's been going very well. And I'm reasonably confident that perhaps within ten years from now I'll be able to freeze human beings for as long or as short a time as I would like to, and then bring them back to life again in exactly the same state that they were in before they were frozen ... just as you can do with animals.

W: And what's the main application of your research？

M: I think the main application of this for human beings would be for people with terminal illnesses, such as certain types of cancer, AIDS. we could freeze them, find a cure for the illness and then bring them back to life again and administer the cure.

W: I see. Well, this obviously is going to create great debate I would think as to the rights and wrongs of whether we should be actually doing this.

What does Professor Morgan do？

A．He is a film director of Science Fiction.

B．He is a writer of Science Fiction.

C．He is a scientist who researches on how to freeze a body and bring it back to life later.

D．He is a doctor who treats terminal illnesses.

听力原文： Some of the most interesting buildings in the world are the pyramids. Thousands of years ago in Egypt, kings built the pyramids. They used to build them as tombs. They thought pyramids would help them find life after death. They also wanted the world to remember them as important people. There are many pyramids along the Nile River. The largest is the pyramid of Khufu. It is made of 2,300,000 huge stones, most of which are higher than a person. It is about 144 meters high. To build this pyramid,100,000 men worked for twenty years.

The people of Mexico also built pyramids. They didn't build the pyramids for tombs. They used to build a pyramid and then build a temple on top of it. The pyramids of Mexico are not as high as those of Egypt, but they are big. Each pyramid has a stairway that goes from the bottom to the top. The biggest pyramid in Mexico is almost 2,000 years old. Scientist's think it took 10,000 men more than ten years to build. On top they built a temple to the sun. The temple is no longer there, but people call it the Pyramid of the Sun.

Scientists have studied the pyramids, but nobody can say just how the people of the ancient days built the pyramids and how they carried and lifted the huge stones. Each stone fits so well and they didn't have our modern machines Z.
