听力原文: "All work and no play makes Jack a dull boy" is a popular saying in the United States. Other countries have similar sayings. It is true that all of us need recreation. We cannot work all the time if we want to maintain good health and enjoy life.
Everyone has his own way of relaxing. Perhaps the most popular way is to participate in sports. There are team sports such as baseball, basketball and football. There are individual sports such as golf and swimming. In addition, hiking, fishing, skiing and mountain climbing have a great attraction to people who like to be outdoors.
Not everyone who enjoys sporting events likes to participate in them. Many people prefer to be spectators, either by attending the game in person, watching them on television, or listening to them on the radio. When there is an important baseball game or boxing match it is almost impossible to get tickets; everybody wants to attend. Chess, card-playing and dancing are forms of indoors recreation enjoyed by many people.
It doesn't mater whether we play a fast game of table-tennis, or go walking through the woods on a brisk autumn day. It is important for everyone to relax from time to time and enjoy some form. of recreation.
(33)
A.It is a story about a dull boy.
B.Jack worked for a whole day.
C.Everyone needs recreation to keep fit.
D.Playing is good, but work is dull.

As we know, it is very important that a fine should pay attention to the training of its staff as there exist many weak parts in its various departments. Staff training must have a purpose, which is defined when a firm considers its training needs, which are in turn based on job descriptions and job specifications. A job description should give details of the performance that is required for a particular job, and a job specification should give information about the behavior, knowledge and skills that are expected of an employee who works in it. When all of this has been collected, it is possible to make a training specification. This specifies what the Training Department must teach for the successful performance of the job, and also the best methods to use in the training period.
There are many different training methods, and there are advantages and disadvantages of all of them. Successful training programs depend on an understanding of the difference between learning about skills and training in using them. It is frequently said that learning about skills takes place "off the job" in the classroom, but training in using these skills takes "on the job", by means of such activities as practice in the workshop.
It is always difficult to evaluate the costs and savings of a training program. The success of such a program depends not only on the methods used but also on the quality of the staff who do the training. A company can often check on savings in time and cost by examining the work performed by the workers and technicians who have completed a training program. The evaluation management training is much more complex than that.
To be successful in our training programs, we must understand the difference between______.
A.a job description and a job specification
B.what is taught and how it is taught
C.learning about skills and training in using them
D.the savings in time and the savings in cost

Message to young Chinese in the 21 st century
Fundamental Science has provided us with an increasingly detailed and accurate understanding of Nature and the world around us. Progress in Science is based on the premises that:
Everything, including existing knowledge, is open to critical, unprejudiced inquiry. Science is often built on the destruction of existing paradigms and is a continuously evolving process.
Our minds, reason, and our powers of observation are the tools we use to advance knowledge. There are no mysteries that will resist scientific investigation.
Science is the property of mankind and not of any one nation or people and is our most precious human asset.
Scientists have been extremely successful in the last century in all fields, physics, chemistry, biology, and genetics.Their discoveries have had a dramatic impact on medicine and our life pattern. We are gaining the power but not necessarily always the wisdom to control our lives, our environment, our fate on this earth and galaxy.
In my own field, immunology, a division of biomedical science, it has been my privilege to witness in the last 40 years spectacular advances. The cells of the immune system have been identified, the specific molecules they produce, (antibodies, cell receptors, transplantation antigens, lymphokines ) have been purified and sequenced and the genes that code for them have been cloned.
Such basic knowledge is being translated into increasing benefits to health through applied technology and should soon contribute to vaccine development against AIDS and cancer. Enormous advances have similarly been made in other areas of biomedical science, with the discovery of the structure of nucleic acids, the genetic code, the control of growth and differentiation at the cellular level, which should soon permit the development of new generations of therapeutic drugs against cancer.
Of my own work in the laboratory over the last 45 years, I would like to share with you two of the most exciting aspects which are very well worth the years of efforts and the difficulties encountered. These are:
The exhilarating feeling that one experiences when Nature, for the first time, reveals its closely guarded secrets, and one begins to finally understand some of the complexities that have eluded us for many years.
The warm and intimate intellectual relationships that are established between teacher and student in the laboratory in the course of conducting research together, which constitute the. training process. I have had the pleasure and personal gratification of training in my laboratory more than 80 younger scientists, many of whom have made very successful careers, and made important contributions themselves. Several of my students have been of Chinese descent.
What about the future? I am convinced that the future will be even more exciting than the past. As I told my grandson, I very much envy him and I would like to be his age and have the opportunity to become again a scientist, starting in another field, and to have a chance to push further the frontiers of knowledge. I urge many of you, who read these line, to do the same. Science is a very exciting experience as well as a worthwhile life goal, because only those undertakings that challenge us to develop our minds and energies to attempt the unattainable are worthy of us.
If I had been given the chance to live another life as a scientist in the 21st century I would study the brain and investigate the mechanism of consciousness, reasoning, logic and memory, and I would try to understand how this marvelous machine, that evolution has developed, is capable of analyzing itself and of understanding the world and reality. This is the ultimate challenge, which I dare you to devote your life to, and to solve for the glory and benef

The Human Science and Advanced Technology Institute at Loughborough in the U. K. is part of an international research program. The team there believes that by 2020 all cars will be computerized which will mean gigantic fuel savings, no accidents and better use of roads. The super-intelligent car of the 21 st century will drive itself, and it will not be owned by one individual. Instead, we will have a choice of cars and change them as frequently as we change our clothing.
According to Dr. David Davies, who leads the research team, these predictions are based on the rising cost of the car culture, which had blocked up our cities, polluted our air, and caused more deaths' than both world wars put together. Davies says, cars will be fitted with intelligent cruise-con-trol devices to regulate the distance between one car and another. Brakes and accelerators will become redundant(多余的) because the car will automatically speed up, or slow down, to match the speed of the car in front. Computers are much safer drivers than people, so cars and trains will be able to drive much closer together than cars driven by people.
By 2010, David Davies maintains, car technology will give motorists a clear view of the road, whatever the weather conditions, by projecting an image of the road ahead onto the car's windscreen. And, by 2020, cars will travel in convoy, linked to each other electronically. Cars will be connected by an electronically bar to the car in front to form. "road-train". "The front vehicle in such a train," says Davies. "But all the others in the train would burn about ten percent of the normal amount, and so produce about ten percent of the poollution."
We know that governments and car manufacturers______.
A.don't believe the prediction that nobody will own cars by 2020
B.are devoted to the technological innovation in car industry
C.consider the predictions made by the researchers seriously
D.have put the super-intelligent car into mass production
