听力原文:Today, Americans still make the same presumption that military might be right. Fo

llowing European criticisms of the Iraq war, the French became "surrender monkeys". The Germans were opportunistic ingrates. The British and the Poles were America's lone allies. Unsurprisingly, many of those listening to Bush's inaugural pledge last week to stand with those defying tyranny saw the glimmerings of an argument for invading Iran. Washington has thus far shown more of an appetite for spreading ideals with the barrel of a gun than for namby-pamby hearts-and-minds campaigns.

According to the passage, which of the following is true?

A.Americans have always believed that military might is correct.

B.Americans have dropped diplomatic solutions to political problems since Bush took office.

C.Americans have accused France of being ungrateful for its help.

D.Bush was thought by some to be seeking justification in attacking Iran in his address.

听力原文: Where Did the Americans Come from? There is a great deal of land in the United States, but there is also a population in America. Where did the people come from?

The first Americans who came to the land were Indians. Today there are about 900,000 American Indians. There is one part of the country with an especially large Indian population. That is the southwest. Blacks first came to America from Africa as slaves. President Lincoln freed the slaves in 1863. About eleven percent of the present American population are Blacks. The first immigrants in American history came from England and the Netherlands. Soon immigrants began to arrive from many other countries, and they are still arriving. In 1790 the new nation had fewer than four million people. Today there are more than 300 million. These include people from all parts of the world.

听力原文: Millions of words have been written about young people in the United States. There are reasons for this great interest in the ideas, feelings, and actions of youth.

[32] Today there are about seven million Americans in colleges and universities. [33] Young persons under twenty-five make up nearly half of the American population. [34] Many of these will soon be in charge of the nation. Naturally their ideas are important to everyone in the country, and it is necessary for older people to understand what they think and feel.

College students today have strong opinions about right and wrong. [35] They are deeply interested in making a better life for all people, especially for those who have not been given a fair chance before now. They see much that is wrong in the lives of their parents. It is hard for them to see what is right and good in the older way. As a result, there is often trouble in American families. Your country may be meeting such problems, too.

(33)

A.About seven million.

B.Nearly half of the American population.

C.25% of American people.

听力原文:In today's class we'll be examining some nineteenth-century pattern books that we

听力原文: In today's class we'll be examining some nineteenth-century pattern books that were used for building houses. I think it's fair today that these pattern books were the most important influence on the design of North American houses during the nineteenth century.

This was because most people who wanted to build a house couldn't afford to hire an architect. Instead, they bought a pattern book, picked out a plan, and took it to the builder. The difference in cost was substantial. In 1870, for example, hiring an architect would have cost about a hundred dollars. At the same time, a pattern book written by an architect cost only five dollars.

At that price, it's easy to see why pattern books were so popular. Some are back in print again today, and of course they cost a lot more than they did a hundred years ago. But they're an invaluable resource for historians, and also for people who restore old houses. I have a modern reprint here that I’ll be passing around the room in a moment so that everyone can have a look.

(36)

A.Advice about landscaping.

B.Hints about saving to buy a house.

C.Photographs of the homes of famous people.

D.Plans for houses.

听力原文: Because he wrote his name so that it could be read easily, John Hancock has a place in the dictionary.

John Hancock was a wealthy man who helped the patriots in the American Revolution. He was president of the Continental Congress. He was also governor of Massachusetts and one of the first men to sign the Declaration of Independence. Yet he is remembered best for his large signature.

The story is told that when Hancock sat down to sign the Declaration of Independence, he said that he would write his signature large enough for John Bull to read without his glasses. (John Bull stands for England, as Uncle Sam stands for the United States. )Hancock's signature on the Declaration is four and three-quarters inches long- an inch longer than his usual signature. Today John Hancock can be used to mean any person's signature.

What is the passage mainly about?

A.The American Revolution.

B.John Hancock's handwriting.

C.How an American expression began.

D.Signing the Declaration of Independence.

听力原文: This is today’s sports news.

In the world of tennis, the London International Tennis Tournament ended today. Samuel Cox of the United States was the winner with Lloyd Smith, of Great Britain, finishing second. Cox scored a decisive victory over Smith in his first major victory outside the United States. His victory also marked the first time that an American has won the London Tennis Tournament in over fifty years. The only other American to win it was Fred Jackson in 1938. Cox won the tournament quickly in three sets. He started out playing aggressively, and the overwhelmed Smith could not keep up with its overpowering serves. Cox took home the $500,000 cash prize and Smith received $350,000. When asked about the big victory, Cox stated he just hopes to be able to win again in next month's tournaments in Paris and Copenhagen.

In the world of soccer, Cuba upset Germany, last year's winner, in the opening games of the International Soccer Cup. The Cuban team won in a difficult match that lasted over five hours. The match was intense, and their victory shocked many who believed that the German team could easily defeat the relatively obscure Cuban team. The German coach, noticeably disappointed at their first round loss, told reporters that he hopes to train his team harder for next year's tournament. Cuba will play Brazil in the next game tomorrow. Overjoyed at their surprise victory, they hope to continue this winning streak and eventually capture the tournament.
