听力原文： Back in those primitive times it was unnecessary to have a special form. of exchange value for everything, like a price. In thee times the only things that were really valuable were the skills to sat vive. But as society became more complex, people depend more on others who were living far away; then it became important for people to develop some method for exchanging value without having to ex change the actual goods.

This need to develop a method for exchanging value was what led to the use of money. Money was a means of exchanging value without having to actually exchange the specific things you wanted. Before the use of money, people had to trade things with each other, and it was usually very difficult to decide what everything was worth in relation to each other. If you had three animals skins and your friend had two pots of dried betas, how did you know how many skins were equivalent to a pet of beans if they didn't have a price？ With the introduction of money, all things could begin to hate a common value that everybody could know about. This led to a standardized set of values among people. As the power of money increased, values that were different from the majority were no longer recognized. The value of something in terms of money became the ultimate value. In order for money to function, the whole society has to agree on the same values.

r some time, learning that you are can be a very traumatic (令人痛苦的) experience. Testing HIV positive has led some people to quit their jobs, quickly write out their wills, and say goodbye to their friends and family, only to discover that they aren't sick and will probably live fur many years to come. It's common to perceive these results as an immediate death sentence, but this is simply not true.

What you are feeling now is perfectly normal. Anger, fear, confusion, numbness, depression all are completely natural reactions to the kind of news you've heard. If you've known fur even several weeks, you may find yourself having a normal day, then suddenly remember that you are HIV positive. It's very common for this kind of realization to just "hit you in the face" out of nowhere over again. You are not going crazy if this happens to you. Your moods may swing from profound sadness one moment to extreme anger the next. That's normal, too.

The first step to get through this emotional turmoil (混乱) is to acknowledge what you are feeling. Don't be surprised to find yourself going through the day in a state of shock. Allow yourself to feel nothing. Your emotions will come rushing back in soon enough. This is merely a way that your mind "turns off' to allow you to cope with a problem, If you are feeling angry, that's fine. You have every right to be angry and a lot to be angry about. This virus is threatening your very existence. It's okay to express this anger. If you're frightened, acknowledge your fears. You are thinking about things that would make anyone fearful. You are allowed to feel the way you do. Don't be hard on yourself or think you have to be strong. You don't have to be anything.

What does the author mean by saying "learning that you are" (Line 2, Para. 1)？

A．Learning what disease you've caught.

B．Learning that you are infected.

C．Learning that you are carrying HIV virus.

D．Learning that you are dying.

ng our cities, many outgoing students have taken to riding bicycles to school. The unfortunate result of this otherwise positive trend is the traffic problems caused by bicycles having to share the same road with cars. Unfortunately, traffic accidents involving bicycles are on the increase throughout the country, so this new solution has led to a dilemma. To solve this dilemma, special bike paths have been created on most roads leading to and from college campuses. It is essential that cyclists stay on those paths. It is necessary for the safety of those of you who ride bicycles as well as the motorists that you share the road with. Obviously, it may be inconvenient to ride in the bike paths at times, but we must insist on it. To enforce the necessity of staying on the paths, there are fines for bicyclists who ride down the middle of the street. The federal fines are currently running at $25 for a first-time violation, but if the law is continually violated, the fines will increase by different amounts depending on your local orders. The money that is collected from the fines will go towards a fund to help build better bike paths. You may have special bicycle bridges in your neighborhood right now. If not, you can count on seeing them in the future. We are committed to making bicycling a safe alternative to using cars and we appreciate your help in making that goal a reality. Questions 16 to 19 are based on the passage you have just heard. 16. What is the newest problem facing people who ride to school？ 17. What is the basis for the law that doesnt allow bicyclists in the middle of the street？ 18. How will the money from the fines be used？ 19. What can we learn about bicycles from the passage？16．

A．The law of the road.

B．International law.

C．Federal law.

D．Local law.

Subject: Fitness-at-Work Program

You've probably heard about the new fitness-at-work program initiated by the head office to encourage us to incorporate some exercise into our daily work routine. Sandra Maxwell of personnel has taken on responsibility for the fitness-at-work program at the Lakewood facility. She has nominated me to set up a walking group, to be known as Walk at Work. We are lucky to work in a beautiful area surrounded by parks, so what better place to take a walk？

Walk at Work will meet during the lunch break, beginning next Monday. The aim is to walk together along the footpaths for at least twenty minutes. There will be two walks each day, one at 12:30 p.m., led by me, and the second at 1:00 p.m., led by Jim Dixon.

This program is fully supported by Sanderson Associates, which has arranged for all staff who enroll in Walk at Work to receive a ten percent discount on membership at Lakewood Fitness Center, a state-of-the-art fitness complex with gyms, a swimming pool, and exercise classes.

We think this is a great idea, and we hope you will too, so why not join us？ You can e-mail me or just meet us at the main entrance on Monday at 12:30 p.m. or 1:00 p.m.

Happy walking!

Julia Chen
