听力原文:Unidentified kidnappers snatched two Norwegian and two Ukrainian oil workers from

a supply ship provisioning oil rigs in Nigeria's petroleum-rich waters, officials said Wednesday. They were taken hostage late Tuesday from the vessel owned by a Norwegian shipping firm, Trico Supply, company spokesman Bjom Endresen said in Norway.

Nigeria confirmed the latest violence against the oil industry in Africa's petroleum giant and said negotiators had been sent to the restive Niger Delta region where most of the crude is pumped.

Endresen said there were 11 other crew members aboard the ship at the time of the kidnapping, but did not give further details. He rejected initial Norwegian media reports that a Briton was among those kidnapped.

Norwegian newspaper VG also reported on its Website that the kidnappers were demanding a ransom.

Foreign Ministry spokesman Frode Overland Andersen said he could not confirm the ransom demand, but said the Norwegian Embassy in Abuja was working with local authorities to get more details on the abductions.

Last week, militants wearing camouflage uniforms took hostage a German oil industry worker, spiriting him away on a boat into Nigeria's troubled oil-rich delta region. A group calling itself the Movement for the Niger Delta People has claimed responsibility for that kidnapping, but police said the group was unknown.

Militants have kidnapped oil workers to bargain for a greater share of the wealth from Africa's largest crude producer. More than 30 have been taken this year, three from the oil-producing hub of Port Harcourt. The militants argue residents remain deeply impoverished, benefiting little from oil wealth while government officials and oil companies grow rich.

Who were taken hostage in the reported kidnapping?

A.Two Norwegians, one Ukrainian, and one Briton.

B.Four Norwegians.

C.Two Norwegians and two Britons.

D.Two Norwegians and two Ukrainians.

听力原文: This is the day when America remembers those who died in service to their countr
y. And nowhere is the extent of their sacrifice more on display than in Arlington National Cemetery--where seven generations of the fallen are buried. President Bush spoke in the cemetery's amphitheater--a massive white structure surrounded by seemingly endless rows of small white headstones. Many of the nation's greatest military heroes are buried in Arlington. But so too are hundreds of thousands of men and women whose names are known only to the families and communities that mourn them. They include several hundred soldiers killed since the September I1 attacks on the United States in places like Kabul and Kandahar, Baghdad and Ramadi. The sod is still fresh on those graves, many covered with personal messages, flowers and flags. The president said their sacrifice must not be in vain, and the cause of protecting freedom will never end. Earlier, the president laid a wreath at the Tomb of the Unknowns, which contains the unidentified remains of members of the U.S. military killed in major conflicts. He was accompanied by several families of the fallen.

According to .the news, many of American greatest military heroes are buried in ______.

A.Kabul

B.Arlington

C.Baghdad

D.Kandahar

听力原文: Some people argue that the pressure on international sportsmen and sportswomen kills the essence of sport -- the pursuit of personal excellence. Children kick a football around for fun. When they get older and play for local school teams, they become competitive but they still enjoy playing. The individual representing his country cannot afford to think about enjoying himself. He has to think only about winning. He is responsible for an entire nation's hopes, dreams and reputation.

A good example is the football World Cup. Football is the world's most important sport. Winning the World Cup is perhaps the summit of international sporting success. Mention "Brazil" to someone and the chances are that he'll think of football. In a sense, winning the World Cup "put Brazil on the map".

Sports fans and supporters get quite irrational about the World Cup. People in England felt that their country was somehow important after they won in 1966. Last year thousands of Scots sold their cars, and even their houses, and spent all their money traveling to Brazil, who won the cup.

(30)

A.Children can have fun from it.

B.People can achieve personal excellence from it.

C.The winner will be greatly honored.

D.It can realize the dreams of an entire nation.

听力原文: Embattled Indonesian President Abdurrahman Wahid warned yesterday that he would
move against those who ignore him, after police and lawmakers disregarded his decision to fire the national police chief.

Suroyo Bimantoro defied Wahid's dismissal by attending a ceremony promoting police officers in Jakarta yester- day.

He late met with senior legislators who accused Wahid of violating the constitution by firing the chief without consulting parliament. More than 100 senior police generals signed a statemeat backing Bimantoro, the state news agency reported.

Bimantoro said he would only step down ff parliament asked him to, which is unlikely to happen.

Wahid's spokesman Yahya Staguf said that firing Bimantoro was constitutional and that the police chief had been meddling in politics.

He said Bimantoro was trying to create a rift between the President and Vice-Prresident, who many lawmakers want to replace Wahid if they oust him durning impeachment proceedings in August.

"Those actions will be considered insubordination and stem action will be taken if this is ignored," Wahid's spokesman said.

The president, facing impeachment over 'allegations of corruption and incompetence, which he denies, fired Bimantoro and several Cabinet ministers on Friday and condemned the police for their handling of recent violence in East Java, where officers shot and killed one of Wahid' s supporters last week.

Wahid ordered an investigation into the violence and warned police officers on Saturday not to disobey him, saying that those who did not accept Bimantoro's removal would be prosecuted for insubordination.

Lawmakers were not fazed.

"The police chief is still Bimantoro. He is still active," said Arifin Panigoro, a top lawmaker from Megawati' s party, the Indonesian Democratic Party of Struggle.

The powerful army is also hacking Bimantoro, the Takarta Post's Internet edition said yesterday, quoting unidentified sources.

Several senior army officers met late Saturday to discuss the situation, military spokesman Air Vice-Marshal Graito Usodo said, but he declined to say if the army was backing the police chief's stand against Wahid, calling it "a political matter." Wahid, a Muslim scholar, is from East Java and many people there revere him as a holy man and sage, regarding attempts to oust him so tantamount to sacrilege.

Wahid wanted to fire _______.

A.a cabinet member

B.the national police chief

C.a lawmaker

D.a Muslim scholar
