听力原文: Imagine that someone in your neighbourhood broke the law, and the judge put the whole neighbourhood under suspicion. How fair will that be? Well, it happens everyday to high schoolers. Just because some students have stolen things in shops, all of us are treated like thieves. Even though I'd never steal.

Store employees looked at me like I'm some kind of hardened criminal. For example, during one lunch period, my friend Denny and I went to the Graben Gore Restaurant to have a hot dog. We arrived to find a line of students waiting outside. A new sign in the window told the story."No More Than Two Students At A Time". After 15 minutes, we finally got in. But the store manager laid the evil eye on us. I asked him about the new sign, and he said, "You kids are stealing too much stuff. " You kids? Too much stuff? We were not only assumed to be thieves, but brilliant, greedy thieves. The most annoying thing though, is the way employees watched my friends and me. It's horrible.

Once, at a drug store, I was looking around and found a guy standing on a large box, stocking the shelves.He was watching my hands, more than he was watching his own. I showed him that my hands were empty. He got down off his box and rushed off, as if he was going to get the store manager. How crazy is that!

Questions:

33. What does the speaker find to be unfair?

34. What measure did the Graben Gore Restaurant take to stop stealing?

35. What happened in a drug store that greatly annoyed the speaker?

(30)

A.Hardworking students being accused of cheating.

B.Boy students being often treated as law-breakers.

C.Innocent people being suspected groundlessly.

D.Junior employees being made to work overtime.

听力原文: There are so many things going on in our modern lives, and change happens so quickly. It is hard to imagine a time when things were slower and you could really see a new thing come into your life and to remember the day or the year when those things happened. I know that today, for example, there, are many instances of second and third generations of things, such as televisions or radios, when some of us were not even aware that there was a first generation.

A friend of mine was born at the end of the last century, and talking to her, I really got a sense of her being a living history book, of being able to talk about the changes in her own life and to know that these changes were really the changes that society was going through.

She gets really excited, for example, when she talks about the first time she ever saw a camera, and even more excited when she saw herself in the picture that the photographer took. She lived in a small town, and at the time that she was very young, there were no cars or trains in her town at all. As she grew up, cars and trains came in, and she remembers her first ride with a real sense of amazement that any one count move so fast.

(30)

A.It's amazing that anyone could move so fast.

B.Televisions mark the beginning of modem life.

C.Modern life is changing very fast.

D.It's hard to remember the past.

听力原文: Can you imagine the earliest films? Now I'll tell you something about them. The earliest films were short, lasting only one minute or less. People could, for one cent, see simple action films of trains, cars, crowds, on city streets, and similar subjects. Soon 20-minute pictures of pieces of news were being shown in theatres at the end of the regular stage show. Later, films used a new method. They put the beginning of one scene upon the end of the scene before so as to tie a story together. In 1903 a film was made about a story. Much of the action took place at the same time -- The prisoners escaping, the men meeting and planning to catch them -- and the scenes moved smoothly, back and forth, from one scene to another, instead of unnaturally showing each scene separately. This was the earliest successful film. A short time later, theatres showed for five cents a whole hour's pleasure of short films. These films were simple and rough. But at that time people liked these films very much.

Why did the film become successful at the beginning of this century?

A.Because it lasted a whole hour.

B.Because it joined the scenes together in a story.

C.Because the price of the ticket was only five cents.

听力原文: Thank you all for coming to this meeting on such short notice. As you know, our lease on this building is due to expire at the end of the year, and I've been looking and looking for new premises. I've searched everywhere, but I just couldn't find any place to match our current location. We've been here for over fifteen years now, and Barker's Books has become an institution. Being so close to the university, we have the perfect location. So, imagine my relief when I heard by chance that the shoe store across the road from us is moving out to the new shopping center. I contacted the property manager straight away, and I've secured a two-year lease from January 1 on that space with only a modest increase in rent. We've got a lot of work ahead of us with the move, but I'm sure we can handle it.

What is the purpose of the announcement?

A.To notify customers of a store closing

B.To inform. staff of a merger with another company

C.To announce pay increases for employees

D.To announce a new location for a store

听力原文:W: Are you all prepared for your Speech Club introduction this evening?

M: Yeah, I'm going to talk about robots.

W: Robots? You mean, those machines that walk and talk like in the movies?

M: No, industrial robots, like those used in auto and electronic industries.

W: Come to think of it, I saw an article about that kind of robot the other day. There were pictures of robots joining cars, but they certainly didn't look the way I thought robot should look.

M: The robots we usually imagine are made up in science fictions. In industry robots are designed to do a specific set of operations, such as joining car frames. They are rarely built to resemble humans.

W: Actually, all they need is a kind of brain to give signals, and a mechanical appliance such as an arm to carry out instructions, right?

M: Right ! Tiny computers become the brains of these robots. The computers send signals in the form. of electrical signals that move an arm and something like our fingers. Those fingers do particular kinds of work.

W: OK. But we have had machines on the assembly line doing work for people for years. That's what started the Industrial Revolution, remember?

M: But each of those machines can only perform. a single operation and it takes months to modify them. The new industrial robots can do a number of tasks and it's easy to reprogram them to perform. totally different operations. That's one reason why they're becoming so popular.

W: They increase productivity too, don't they? Even though they are still quite expensive, I imagine robots will be used more and more.

M: Exactly. So now that you know all about the next Industrial Revolution. You don't have to come to Speech Club tonight.

What are the speakers talking about?

A.Movies.

B.Cars.

C.Robots.

D.Fictions.

听力原文:Did you know that there's a kind of bird that can sew? This bird, called the tail

Each bird species builds its own special kind of nest. The most common materials used for nests are grasses, branches and feathers. A bird must weave these materials into a nest. Just imagine building a house without cement or nails to hold together.

Another bird is called the weaver bird. 'The weaver bird builds a nest that looks like a basket. The nest is shaped like a pear with a hole in the middle. The hole is the door of the nest.

A third bird is called the oven bird. The oven bird makes a nest that is very solid. The nest is made of mud. The oven bird forms the mud into the shape of an oven and then let it dry in the sun. The sun bakes. the mud, making it very hard.

Not all birds make their homes in branches. Some birds build their nests on the ground, while others bury their eggs under the ground. And some birds do not build nests at all.

So when you look for nests and eggs in the branches of the trees and bushes, remember, that some nests may be right trader your feet.

(26)

A.A cup.

B.An oven.

C.An egg.

D.A basket.
