听力原文：M: Sally, how are you doing？
W: I'm doing fine. I've spent the last two years studying Chinese literature on the lovely coast. I could not have made a better choice, as I really enjoy everything about being here except the lack of snow, of course!
M: Why did you choose to study Chinese literature？
W: Well, my parents are China scholars, and since I was very young I've been interested in China, especially Chinese culture.
I have always believed that a country's literature reveals a lot about its culture.
M: What do you like about your study？
W: What I like most is that we have group work, presentations and assignments as well as seminars and lectures. These variations enable interaction and discussion among the students.
M: Say something more about the place of your study, will you？
W: It's a great student town bemuse of its size and nightlife. You will not experience being lost or lonely here. Unfortunately for some, there is a lack of opportunities for those interested in art.
M: I guess it's still a wonderful place.
W: It sure is. It can offer friendly people, a gorgeous beach, powerful waves and a fresh sea breeze. Nothing else can refresh you more than a walk by the beach!

W: So far, I've just taken the written test. I did well enough on that, but I still have to take the road test.
M: I remember when I took the road test a few years ago. The first time I took it, I failed.
W: You failed! But you're such a good driver! What happened？
M: Well, I took a left - hand turn from the right lane, and the examiner told me just to turn around and go back to the testing center. It was pretty embarrassing.
W: My big problem is parallel parking. I just can't seem to get a car into those little spaces.
M: If you like, we can go out in my car before you take the road test and practise parallel parking.
W: That would be great. I've just got to get my license. I can't believe that I have a car that my parents gave me just sitting in my garage, and I can't even drive it.

M: Yes. Unfortunately, that's a common problem with books made from wood pulp.
W: I suppose that to make paper from wood you have to add a lot of chemicals and acids to make it turn white.
M: Exactly, and it's the acid that eventually cat's away the paper.
W: Oh, that actually makes sense, but this book's not even 75 years old and I've seen books in museum that are hundreds of years old and they're in fine condition.
M: Well, you see, books have been made from wood pulp only since the 1850s, before that they were made from materials mostly animals' skins, and no chemicals were added.
W: It's a shame those older wood pulp books are going to fall apart some day. Is there anything that can be done to preserve them？
M: En, currently the only way to stop the books from decaying is to remove the binding and treat each page individually to remove the acid.
W: That doesn't sound very economical.
M: No, it isn't. It's not practical to treat a large number of book's with this process, so we only try to rescue the most valuable edition books in our collection.
W: Well, thanks for the explanation. I'd better get back to my project.
M: Good luck and I hope the old book will bold long enough for you to finish it.

A．The early history of bookbinding.
B．How old books become valuable.

第5题
I'd love to give up my job and spend all my time painting, but I work with computers and I earn more that way! I do make some money from selling my pictures, enough to pay for all my paint, brushes and paper and a few art lessons. I'd love to go to art college full-time for three years, but I've got all the rent on my fiat to pay and a car to run.
I first became interested in art when I was at primary school. I used to go out with some paper and a few pencils during break time and draw anything I
saw: houses, gardens, people. Then at secondary school we had art classes twice a week, and I learnt how to use chalk and then different kinds of paint: water colours, oils and so on.
Those classes were really useful for me, and ever since then I’ve had lessons of some kind. I've attended evening classes and been on what they call painting 'holidays', where you go out into the countryside and paint during the day and then sit and discuss your work with a teacher and the other artists after dinner. Those holidays are great; you learn so much talking to other people studying with you.
I've enjoyed painting in lots of different countries. I've been to Morocco and painted desert scenes with beautiful sunrises. I've been to Greece and Spain and painted pictures of the local people working in the fields near their homes. My favourite place is still Scotland. I love walking in the Scottish mountains, and there are so many different birds to see, especially in spring.
Well, I'm going to finish now by showing you a video of the places I've visited. After that there'll be a chance to relax with a cup of coffee and then there'll be time for some questions. Oh, and I've got some information about my next art exhibition for you. It's going to be at the Queen's Gallery. Now, if someone would turn off the lights ...
How often does Sarah paint now？
A．three days a week
B．five days a week
C．every evening

IQ-gene
In the angry debate over how much of IQ comes from the genes that children inherit from parents and how much comes from experiences, one little fact gets overlooked: no one has identified any genes (other than those that cause retardation) that affect intelligence. So researchers led by Robert Plomin of London's Institute of Psychiatry decided to look for some. They figured that if you want to find a "smart gene", you should look in smart kids. They therefore examined the DNA of students like those who are so bright that they take college entrance exams four years early--and still score at Princeton--caliber levels. The scientists found what they sought. "We have," says Plomin, "the first specific gene ever associated with general intelligence."
Plomin's colleagues drew blood from two groups of 51 children each, all 6 to 15 years old and living in six counties around Cleveland. In one group, the average IQ is 103. All the children are white. Isolating the blood cells, the researchers then examined each child's chromosome 6 of the 37 landmarks on chromosome 6 that the researchers looked for, one jumped out: a form. of gene called IGF2R occurred in twice as many children in the high-IQ group as in the average group--32 percent versus 16 percent. The study, in the May issue of the journal Psychological Science, concludes that it is this form. of the IGF2R gene that contributes to intelligence. Some geneticists see major problems with the IQ-gene study. One is the possibility that Plomin's group fell for "chopsticks fallacy". Geneticists might think they've found a gene for chopsticks flexibility, but all they've really found is a gene more common in Asians than, say, Africans. Similarly, Plomin's IQ gene might simply be one that is more common in groups mat emphasize academic achievement. "What is the gene that they've found reflects ethnicity？" asks geneticist Andrew Feinberg of Johns Hopkins University. "That alone might explain the link to intelligence, since IQ tests are known for being culturally sensitive and affected by a child's environment. "And Neil Risch of Standford University points out that if you look for 37 genes on a chromosome, as the researchers did, and find that one is more common in smarter kids, that might reflect pure chance rather than a causal link between the gene and intelligence. Warns Feinberg, "I would take these findings with a whole box of salt."
In the beginning of paragraph one we are told that scientists can not agree______.
A．how much of IQ comes from intelligence
B．how many children inherit genes from parents
C．how much of IQ comes from genes
D．how many children learn by experience

第10题
M: Sure. I've summarized the results in the handout, broken down by consumer age groups and sporting activities. The survey was administered to 550 men and women between the ages of 18 and 55 years old, and the results have been compiled in the following age groups: 18 to 26, 27 to 35, 36 to 45, and 46 to 55. According to the results, the most active group involved in sporting activities are those between 18 and 26 years old, followed by those 36 to 45 years old.
W: I see.
M: As far as particular sports are concerned, people in these two groups cited jogging as their favorite recreational sport followed by skiing, tennis, swimming, and cycling.
W: And what about these groups broken down by gender？
M: Oh, thanks for bringing that up. Men appear to be slightly mom active than women in the 18 to 26 year-old age group, but women seem more active in the other three groups.
W: Hmm. Based on what you have said, I think we should consider targeting the 18 to 26 year-old age group more in the future. I also feel we should consider expanding our line of athletic shoes, particularly jogging and tennis footwear. We also have to come up with a more appealing slogan aimed at this age group.
M: I see what you mean. However, when these results are compared with the survey carried out three years ago, we can see a growing trend among older consumers--those 14, I mean 46 to 55 who are becoming more conscious and concerned about staying fit. I believe this trend will continue, so we should focus on this group instead.
W: I see your point. Well, let's meet again on Wednesday to iron out more of the details of this proposal.
(23)
A．Leisure sporting activities.
B．Average age of athletes.
C．Durability of sporting equipment.
D．People's preference for sporting activities.
