听力原文: I say to you today, my friends, even though we face the difficulties of the day and tomorrow, I still have a dream. It is a dream deeply rooted in the American dream. I have a dream that one day this nation will rise up and live out the true meaning of its creed: "we hold these truths to be selfevident: that all men are created equal." I have a dream that one day the sons of former slaves and the sons of former slave owners will be able to sit down together at a table of brotherhood. I have a dream that one day even the state of Mississippi, a desert state, sweltering with the heat of injustice, sweltering with the heat of oppression, will be transformed into an oasis of freedom and justice. I have a dream that my four little children will one day live in a nation where they will not be judged by the color of their skin but by the content of their character. I have a dream today. I have a dream that one day down in Alabama, with its governor having his lips dripping with the words of interposition and nullification, one day right here in Alabama little black boys and black girls will be able to join hands with little white boys and white girls as sisters and brothers. I have a dream today. I have a dream that one day every valley shall be exalted, every hill and mountain shall be made low. The rough places will be made plain, and the glory of the Lord shall be revealed, and all flesh shall see it together.
We holds these truths to be self evident that______.
A.all men are created equal
B.every one has the right of receiving education
C.both whites and blacks are the sons of God
D.all men are the sons of God

B. Steven Waugh, Chief Executive Officer, DigiCom
Steven Waugh, the driving force behind DigiCom for over 25 years, retires this year. Known for his quick decision-making, he is seen as one of the most outspoken and ruthless operators in the world of business. These qualities have often made life difficult for DigiCom competitors, who have regularly been faced with bitter price wars and innovative promotional campaigns, often masterminded by the CEO himself. Born in Queensland, Waugh first cut his teeth on Australia's Channel 9 before entering broadcasting in Britain. Never a great believer in political correctness, he is famous for spending his time aboard his luxury cruiser indulging in gourmet food and champagne.
C. Mark Boucher, Chairman, Gladstone
Mark Boucher, 53, chairs Gladstone, the base-metals group recently demerged from Corgen of South Africa and floated in Amsterdam. Since the breakaway, Gladstone's operating profit has grown to $ 92m, even though experts have described the company as overstaffed and inefficient. Boucher is a reserved man who is reluctant toad dress large meetings but reveals, when pressed, a dry sense of humor. He has had an unusual career path, including a spell working for the North American Space Agency, followed by a stint running a satellite TV station.
D. Erik Johanssen, Chief Executive, MorgenReynolds
MorgenReynolds' CEO Erik Johanssen admits to crying occasionally and says he is not the tough hard-nosed businessman that people expect when they meet him. He is, however, universally regarded as a shrewd politician within the industry. A self-styled company man, the chain-smoking 55-year-old Johanssen has been with Morgen for over 20 years. Since Morgen took over the innovative but under-performing Reynolds, Johanssen has streamlined the business radically, axing half of Reynolds' top managers. Jonanssen lives modestly in Stockholm and travels to work by underground.
E. Joe Anderson, Chief Executive, Dayton International Hotels
Joe Anderson joined the imaginative Seattle-based Foyles restaurant chain after graduating in 1963. He worked his way up through the ranks, performing a variety of different roles, eventually becoming the Managing Director in 1976 and joining the parent company's executive board in 1980. In 1994 he became CEO and President of the group's Dayton activities and reduced the group's debts by disposing of several properties and a chain of beauty salons. His next project is likely to be the search for strategic alliances with major European hotel chains.
He has cut operating costs by reducing the number of senior staff.
