第8题
Man: Not at the moment, Sandy. But I was earlier this morning.
Woman: Can we start off by looking at the finances of this great success story？ How much exactly is the sportswear industry worth？
Man: At the moment I would say it's worth something like ￡3,500 million a year.
Woman: To whom？ Where are people going for their sportswear？
Man: Well, traditionally, up to the end of the 80s, shall we say, sportswear was produced almost exclusively by sportswear specialists and passed on to the department stores to be sold. In the last 10 years there's been an interesting development of the mail-order business but most sportswear by far is still produced by sportswear companies like our own and then retailed through our own specialist outlets.
Woman: Approximately what proportion of expenditure on all clothing and footwear is spent on sportswear？ Do you know？
Man: I'm not absolutely sure of the very latest figures, but it's something in the region of 9%. That includes expenditure on children's sportswear. What I think is more interesting or surprising is that a recent survey showed that last year 41% of sportswear was purchased by adults, not for use as sports clothes, not, I mean, to play a sport, but just as casual wear for their entertainment activities.
Woman: You say adults. But my impression is that it is the young who buy this sort of clothing. I mean, my mother hasn't bought any sports shoes yet and they've been in fashion for years. I'm not sure she ever will buy any now.
Man: Of course it basically is a youth market. However, one surprising fact is that the 16-25 age-group is in fact getting smaller and will continue to do so for a few more years. The size of this group has fallen from 9.5 million in the mid 1980s to something like 7.5 million now. And yet the sportswear market has expanded considerably during the same period. It can't be simply a youth market.
Woman: What do you see as the reason for the development in sportswear？
Man: It's hard, if not impossible, to give you any single reason. There are even plenty of reasons why it shouldn't have happened, such as the rising costs of production and marketing, leading to much higher prices. What's clear is that changing social conditions have greatly helped. The market couldn't have grown to its present size without the relaxation in codes of dress that has taken place since the late 70s. We have relaxed some of our rules. This has allowed sports participants to wear their tracksuits and sports shoes for many other activities they are not designed for. At a very practical level, clothing and footwear which are suitable for sports are so easily used for other non-sporting activities as well. For DIY, or gardening, or just playing with the children.
Woman: And how do you see the future for sportswear？
Man: I expect increased competition between the manufacturers to produce more attractive and fashionable materials. I don't expect this to affect the number of manufacturers active in the marketplace but it could well bring the prices down.
Woman: Will we be wearing the same sportswear products then？ Five years from now.
Man: Almost definitely. This is not just a passing fashion. It will last. People young and old are putting an ever-increasing emphasis on the importance of feeling, and looking, fit and healthy. Most experts believe that sportswear will actually increase its market share over the next few years.

听力原文： One day in 1848, a carpenter named Marshall, who worked in a sawmill on the American River in California, made a surprising discovery. He noticed something bright and yellow, bent down to pick it up and took it to his friend, a Mr. Sutter. This was the beginning of the Californian Gold Rush. Sutter was a Swiss who had come to America to try to make a lot of money. The Governor of California had given him permission to make a home in the Sacramento Valley and his determination and energy had made him rich. He had built the mill together with Marshall in order to make use of the rich natural materials of his land.
Sutter realized the importance of the discovery and decided to ask the Governor for the right to the gold. So he sent a man named Bennet to San Francisco to see the Governor. He warned Bennet not to tell anyone because he was afraid that people would come before his right was recognized. Bennet could not keep the secret but people did not believe him at first. Then a newspaperman went to Sutter's mill to make a report. When he came back he ran through the streets shouting, "Gold! Gold!" Within a month almost the entire population had gone to look for the gold.
Then news spread across America to Europe and thousands of people joined in the search. Those who went by ship had to sail round Cape Horn but some preferred to go across America by land, and freight cars were used for travelers. Even then there were some who were prepared to cross the terrible desert of Death Valley.
The Gold Rush proved to be fatal to Sutter himself. For years he tried to get rid of those new-comers so that his family might enjoy the wealth of his land, but his business failed. The new-comers did a great deal of harm, and even killed one of his sons, and at the end of his life he was a poor man who often stopped people in the street to tell them that gold was worse than anything else.
Who was the first to find the gold in California？
A．Sutter.
B．Marshall.
C．Bennet.
D．A newspaperman.
