听力原文:Alan: I'm really worried about Jeremy these days. He looks tired.
Ben: He's a workaholic, you know. Works all the time, night and day.
Alan: I know he puts in a lot of hours. He's always here no matter what time I arrive.
Ben: The boss seems to think it's a good thing, but I'm not so sure.
Alan: When does Jeremy get time to relax?
Ben: That's just the point, he doesn't. He's always thinking about work. It's mined his life. He never saw his children because he was always home late and he left early in the morning.
Alan: What happened?
Ben: He and his wife separated. She'll probably get a divorce.
Alan: That's high price to pay.
Ben: I guess some people can't see the value of a balanced life. If you try to talk with Jeremy, he's always more comfortable with talking about work, he can't really talk about anything else.
Alan: That's kind of sad.
Ben: The trouble is, Jeremy doesn't see it that way. He just gets lots of work done and he actually enjoys it.
Alan: It will tell in the end though. He's putting too much stress on himself. There's more to life than work. If your life consists only of work then I believe there's a psychological problem.
Ben: That's possible. Maybe his boss should have a talk with him.
Alan: But who is going to tell him to do that?
(27)
A.In an office.
B.At a supermarket.
C.At home.
D.At a railway station.

听力原文: Ben Johnson was the name of the candidate defeated by George Washington in the 1780 presidential race. Nick-named "The Giant of a Man, ' Johnson was massive in stature and he had a large head in proportion to his body. Despite his physical appearance, Johnson was an alarming candidate.
It was only a few years prior that Johnson had defeated some of Washington's attempts to change the territorial areas of Virginia. During that political contest, the Washington-Johnson debates were popular throughout the whole country. At the time, the issue of state self-government was foremost in the minds of many citizens.
One reason Johnson was defeated in his bid for presidency was the stand he took on the issue of federalism. The people of the incorporated states, angry over his position, voted almost completely for Washington. If Johnson had been willing to change some of his positions on the issue, he may have won the presidency.
Although he lost the election, Johnson continued to serve the government. Soon after the election of 1780, the Mexican Independence War began. Johnson offered his services to the president that had defeated him and he died from illness during the middle of the war. Even though Johnson never did become president, he will always be remembered as a great early American.
(33)
A.In 1784.
B.When Johnson died.
C.Just before the Mexican Independence War.
D.In 177
