听力原文： Many people catch a cold in the springtime or fall. It makes us wonder... if scientists can send a man to the moon, why can't they find a cure for the common cold. The answer is easy. There see actually hundreds of kinds of cold viruses out there. You never know which one you will get, so there isn't a cure for each one.

When a virus attacks your body, your body works hard to get rid of it. Blood rushes to your nose. You feel terrible because you can't breathe well, but your body is actually "eating" the virus. Your temperature rises and you get a fever, but the heat of your body is killing the virus. You also have a ninny nose to stop the virus from getting to your cells. You may feel miserable, but actually your wonderful body is doing everything it can to kill the cold.

Different people have different methods to cure colds. In the United States and some other countries, for example, people might eat chicken soup to feel better. Some people take hot baths and drink warm liquids. Other people take medicines to stop the fever, headache, and runny nose.

There is one interesting tiring to note—same scientists say taking medicines when you have a cold is actually bad for you. The virus stays in you longer because your body doesn't have a way to fight it and kill it. Bodies can do an amazing job on their own, and medicines may affect the body's work. However, others can hardly believe it. So, there is a joke on taking medicine when you have a cold. It goes like this: It takes about 1 week to get over a cold if you don't take medicine, but only 7 days to get over a cold if you take medicine.

(26)

A．It has to suffer the misery passively.

B．It will produce more cells.

C．It will rebuild its systems.

D．It will work hard to kill the cold.

听力原文： Cats have been popular pets for thousands of years. The ancient Egyptians are thought to have been the first to keep cats in their homes. Today, people like cats for many reasons. Cats are easy to care for. They are soft and beautiful and they can catch mice!

A cat is a natural hunter. It has a good sense of hearing. Its sense of smell is well developed, too. Its eyes can detect the smallest movements. With its powerful legs it can run after its prey and jump to catch it.

A pet cat that is fed every day does net need to hunt for food. But it may go after a mouse anyway. This is because hunting is an instinct in cats. They are born with this ability.

Cats have other instincts as well. They purr when they are happy. They arch their backs and puff up their fur when they are afraid. Cats also scratch objects with their front claws. Some people think cats scratch to sharpen their claws. Others think this action helps exercise their legs and feet. Both reasons may be true.

There are many breeds of cats. Some have long hair, others have short hair. Their coats can have different colors and patterns. Cats have different personalities, too. Some use their voices a lot. Others are silent. Some are shy, while others are friendly. Many people enjoy having these animals as companions.

(30)

A．Cats are easy to care for.

B．Cats are soft and beautiful.

C．Cats can catch mice.

听力原文：About 70 million Americans are trying to lose weight. That is almost 1 out of eve

听力原文： About 70 million Americans are trying to lose weight. That is almost 1 out of every 3 people in the United States. Some people go on diets. This means they eat less of certain foods, especially fats and sugars. Other people exercise with special equipment, take diet pills, or even have surgery. Losing weight is hard work, and it can also cost a lot of money. But why do so many people in the United States want to lose weight？

Many people in the United States worry about not looking young and attractive. For many people, looking good also means being thin. Other people worry about their health. Many doctors say being overweight is not healthy. But are Americans really fat？

Almost 30 million Americans weigh at least 20 percent more than their ideal weight. In fact, the United States is the most overweight country in the world. "The stored fat of adult Americans weighs 2.3 trillion pounds," says University of Massachusetts anthropologist George Armelages. He says burning off that stored energy would produce enough power for 900,000 cars to go 12,000 miles.

Losing weight is hard work, but most people want to find a fast and easy way to take off fat. Bookstores sell lots of diet books. These books tell readers how to lose weight. Each year, dozens of new books like these are written. Each one promises to get rid of fat.

(30)

A．To cat nothing.

B．To work hard.

C．To have surgery.

D．To cost a lot of money.

听力原文：New research from Australia shows that pets are good for your health. The finding

听力原文： New research from Australia shows that pets are good for your health. The findings of this new study suggest that people who have pets are at less risk from heart disease than those who do not.

The new research was carried out over three years and examined 3,000 people. They took tests that measured a variety of different factors known to be involved in heart disease--blood pressure and blood levels. Also, people were asked about their lifestyles. The 800 people who owned pets had low levels on each of the factors measured than those who did not own pets. The study 'also showed that it did not matter what kind of pet was owned--a cat was as good as a dog— so the benefits could not be attributed to the exercises involved in walking a dog.

The question is just how pets manage to make their owners more healthy. The obvious answer is that they make their owners feel more relaxed and happy. The Australian scientists who organized this study commented that if a new drug was available that was as effective as simply having a pet, then this drug would undoubtedly be considered a breakthrough in the control of heart disease.

(30)

A．Pets manage to make their owners more healthy.

B．Pets spread many kinds of disease to men.

C．Pet owners enjoy better health because of exercises.

D．Pets can sometimes cause high blood pressure in man.

听力原文：I wonder how many of you would went to work in a tall building such as the Empire

State Building if you had to climb 102 flights of stairs to reach the top. Not many, I imagine. If it were not for the invention of elevators, or lifts, tall buildings would be unusable.

The first lift was just a box suspended on a rope. Using a series of pulleys, a group of oxen ox strong men would pull the rope end lift the box to a higher point. Lifts were used only for heavy materials, not passengers. Even in the nineteenth century, when steam power was used to operate the lifts, people didn't ride them. They didn't trust the rope that held the box.

In 1853, Elisha G. Otis invented the first safe lift. He showed his invention in New York at the Crystal Palace Exhibition. At the exhibition, Otis was pulled up in an open box that was attached to two guide mils. When he was lifted far above the spectators, he gave the order to cat the rope. To the amazement of the crowd, the lift did not fall straight downward to the floor. Instead, it was held fast to the guide rails by a certain device. He had built powerful metal clamps on the carriage as a safety measure. The demonstration worked, and people have been riding as passengers in elevators ever since.

A．Disadvantages of tall buildings.

B．The Crystal Palace Exhibition.
