听力原文: A good marriage means growing as a couple but also growing as individuals. This isn't easy; marriage has always been difficult. Why then are we seeing so many divorces at this time? Yes, our modern social fabric is thin, and yes, the permissiveness of society has created unrealistic expectations and threw the family into disorder. But divorce is so common because people today are unwilling to exercise the self-discipline that marriage requires. They expect easy joy, like the entertainment on TV, the thrill of a good party.

Marriage takes some kind of sacrifice, not dreadful self-sacrifice of the soul, but some level of compromise. Some of one's fantasies, some of one's legitimate desires, have to be given up for the value of the marriage itself. "While all marital partners feel shacked at times, it is they who really choose to make the martial ties into confining chains or supporting bonds, says Dr. Walter. Marriage requires sexual, financial and emotional discipline. A man and a woman cannot follow every impulse, cannot allow them to stop growing or changing.

(30)

A.Because it is difficult to maintain a marriage.

B.Because people like watching TV programs.

C.Because people prefer freedom to self-discipline.

D.Because our society is permissive towards divorces.

听力原文: In the United States, couples usually receive gifts from their relatives and friends when they get married. Sometimes a bride will exchange a gift for something else if she doesn't find it useful. We give gifts to express our good wishes for the marriage, but gifts aren't necessary for the marriage itself. However, in some societies gifts are very important, and the marriage isn't legal without them. One type of gift is called bride service. A young husband must work for his wife's family. He may work for as long as fifteen years or until the third child is bom. Bride service may seem strange to us, but it is necessary in societies where people don't have money or material things to exchange at marriage.

(20)

A.She will ask for another gift

B.She will exchange it for something useful

C.She will return it to the giver

D.She will just keep it

听力原文:In order to marry in Britain, both tile man and the woman must be over sixteen.An

听力原文: In order to marry in Britain, both tile man and the woman must be over sixteen. Anyone under eighteen must obtain parental consent. People can get married either in a registry office or in a church. On three Sundays before the wedding a public announcement of the forthcoming marriage has to be made in church, and an announcement has to be put up on a board at the church or the registry office.

In a registry office ceremony there must be two witnesses. On some occasions, especially when people have married secretly, two passers-by in the street have suddenly found themselves asked to witness a marriage! Although the number of registry office marriages is increasing, most people still prefer a church wedding. The bride, in white, is attended by bridesmaids, and led by a proud father up to the church altar, where the bridegroom is waiting, nervously, attended by his best man.

And it seems sensible to wait. One quarter of all marriages between people under twenty-one end in divorce. In Britain in 1972, there were 124, 248 divorces, "Look before you leap" would be good advice to people thinking of getting married.

(36)

A.Under 18.

B.Under 16.

C.Over 19.

D.Under 17.

听力原文: Marriage is still a popular institution in the United States, but divorce is becoming almost as "popular". Nevertheless, most American people get married at the present time. Fifty percent of American marriages end in divorce. However, four out of five divorced people do not stay single. They get married a see6nd time to new partners. Sociologists tell us that in the next century, most American people will marry three or four times in one lifetime. Alvin Toffler, an American sociologist, calls this new social form. "serial marriages". In his new book Fortune Shock, Toffler gives many reasons for this change in American marriage. In modern society, people's lives don't stay the same for very long. Americans frequently change their jobs, their homes, and their circle of friends. So, the person who was a good husband or wife ten years ago is sometimes not as good ten years later. After some years of marriage, a husband and wife can feel that their lives have become very different, and they don't share the same interests any more. For this reason, Toffler says, people in the twenty- first century will not plan to marry only one person for an entire lifetime. They will plan to stay married to one person for perhaps five or ten years, and then marry another. Most Americans will expect to have a "marriage career" that includes three or four marriages.

(30)

A.Marriage that continues for many years without divorce.

B.Marriage that can easily end in divorce.

C.People will marry three or four times in one life-time.

D.Divorced people don't stay single.

听力原文: I met Susan at a dance about six months ago. We get along well together since we like music, dancing, swimming, and tennis. But whenever I start to get serious about our relationship and try to discuss with her how she feels about me and whether we might consider marriage, she gets angry and refuses to talk about it. Usually, she says something like: "I'm not the marrying kind" or "We're having too much fun to be serious." Besides all these, I don' t think that my parents like her very much. They think that she's not very intelligent.

Do you think I should continue to keep the relationship? Or should I forget her? We're both 22, but I'm ready to settle down and establish a home. I have a good job as a salesman, and by the time I' m 24, I hope to have saved enough money to start my own business.

(33)

A.The relationship between the speaker and Susan.

B.The arrangement of the speaker's marriage ceremony.

C.The speaker's parents' opinion of Susan.

D.The speaker's plan for the future.

听力原文: A calendar is a kind of chart that is used to keep tracks of days, months, and years. The ancient calendars of China were sometimes divided into 12-year cycles. Each year in the 12-year cycle had the name of an animal. There were twelve animals that were used to name the 12 years of the cycle. These animals are the rat, ox, tiger, rabbit, dragon, snake, horse, sheep, monkey, rooster, dog and boar. You can figure out the animal for any year if you remember the animals' names in this order.

There were two common areas of significance that the Chinese calendar was used in. One area of its use was in selecting a marriage partner. For example, a woman who was born in the year of the dog was perfectly suited to a man who was born in the year of the rabbit. Another use for the calendar was in selecting a profession. For example, a person born in the year of the dragon might be good for the medical profession, but not for the legal profession.

(30)

A.A kind of chart used to keep track of days, months and years.

B.A kind of book used to express days of months.

C.A list of the animal's names.

D.A list of holidays.
