In the old days, such postal deliveries were only for important people. The messengers would sometimes carry letters for ordinary citizens, but the cost was very high and the messengers were often careless. And so in the 17th century in Britain, a service was started for everyone. At first this postal service carried letters only between a few very busy towns, but year by year it grew larger and better.
Today, there are post offices in every country. Letters can be sent by post in almost any village, anywhere. In Britain, the postman who delivers the mail may walk or ride bicycle for a short distance. Post offices also use many other ways to carry mail — by train and ship and by airplane, depending on the fastest and easiest way.
(23)
A．In 15th century.
B．Before 15th century.
C．In the 17th century.
D．After 17th century.

The Wrights offered Flyer No. 3 to the United States Government. The Government was not interested. They seemed to think the Wrights wanted money in order to build an airplane. They did not understand the Wrights had already done this, and flown it as well. Experts were still saying that mechanical flight was impossible. At the end of 1905, the two brothers took their plane to pieces. The parts were put into a huge wooden case. It seemed nobody was interested.

B．They were able to stay up in the air for half an hour and more in the machine.
C．They were able to carry travelers.
D．They were able to fly in around Dayton.

听力原文： Today when a man steps on to the moon, or something new and important happens, the world learns about it immediately. What did the newspapers say about that first flight in 1903？ Strangely enough, they said hardly anything about it at all. There were only a few reports about it in the papers. These reports said very little. Some of the things they said were not even correct, In 1904, the Wrights built a second machine. They called it Flyer No. 2. They invited some reporters to a field near Dayton to watch them fly. Unfortunately, there was some mechanical trouble with the plane and it did not fly at all that day. The reporters went away. They were disappointed and did not come back. The Wrights went on with their work. In 1905, they built an even better machine, Flyer No. 3. They were able to stay up in the air for half an hour and more in this machine. They were able to turn and climb in the air. Farmers, travelers on the roads around Dayton often saw them flying. But when these people told reporters about it, they refused to believe them.

听力原文： Today I'm going to discuss transportation and communication in the early 19th century in the United States. At that time, inland waterways provided North America's most popular form. of long distance transportation. Travel by river was often more convenient than taking a wagon over primitive country roads, especially when shipping heavy loads of farm products or household goods, Where the natural water ways were inadequate, shallow canals were built. The Erie Canal, opened in 1825, connected the Great Lakes with the upper Hudson River. It allowed settlers in the Great Lakes region to send their crops eastward to New York City at the mouth of the Hudson at a much lower cost. From there, crops could be shipped to other Atlantic ports. The construction of the Erie Canal also encouraged westward migration along inland waterways and helped populate the frontier. The City of Detroit grew up between two of the Great Lakes. Later a canal joined the Great Lakes with the Mississippi river system and Chicago became a thriving city. Politically the waterway system united the nation in a way few had imagined possible. By the mid-1800's faster and cheaper railroads became more popular and the canal system de dined. Railroads could be used year round whereas canals were often frozen in the winter. During the first third of the century, however, transportation on rivers, lakes and canals aided greatly in the growth of the United States. Next week we'll discuss the railroads in greater detail.
(33)
A．The role of inland waterways in the nation's growth.
B．The development of New York City as a seaport.
C．The growth of the railroads.
D．The disappearance of the canal system.

听力原文： The word "motel" means motorist hotel and is used chiefly by people traveling by car. Parking space is always available. Motels are usually located outside the center of town near major roads and are less expensive than hotels. Rates in motels are about $10 to $15 per person a day for a room and bath. Motels in and near large cities tend to be more expensive than this, in smaller towns the prices may be lower. Because motels are often located outside the center of the town, it will probably be inconvenient to stay in a motel unless you have a car or unless the motel is located near public bus or train lines. (29) Although reservations in advance are usually required in motels in busy areas, this is not always the case in less crowded parts of the country. Because of their convenience and economical prices, it is easy to understand why they are so popular with Americans.
During the early part of this century, most cities and small towns had a great number of "guest houses". These were large private homes with rooms that could be rented to visiting travelers. (30) Guest houses were warm and friendly places where you often could have a home-cooked meal as well as a clean room and bath. Today, unfortunately, few guest houses remain. They have been replaced by motels, (31) which offer the traveler modern conveniences such as television in the rooms and frequently the use of a swimming pool.
29. What do people need to do to live in the motels in busy areas？
30.Which is the characteristic of the guest houses？
31.Why don't the "guest houses" exist today？
(30)
A．They need to cost more money.
B．They need to drive there by cars.
C．They usually need to spend about $10 to $15 a day.
D．They usually need to reserve in advance.
第10题
If the weather isn't too cold, people sit out front. If it is hot, the open air is the only air-conditioning
they get. At least, the street lights still burn. Indoor, few people can afford to keep lights burning after supper.
As for the winter—well, it is inconvenient to be cold, with most of what furnace fuel is allowed hoarded for the dawn. But sweaters are popular indoor wear. Showers are not an everyday luxury.
It is sore in the suburbs, which were born with the auto, lived with the auto, and are dying with the auto. Suburbanites from associations that assign turns to the procurement and distribution of food. Pushcarts creak from house to house along the posh suburban roads, and every bad snowstorm is a disaster. It isn't easy to hoard enough food to last till the roads are open.
What energy is left must be conserved for agriculture. The great car factories make trucks and farm machinery almost exclusively. The American population isn't going up much any more, but the food supply must be kept high even though the prices and difficulty of distribution force each American to eat less. Food is needed for export to pay for some trickles of oil and for other resources.
The rest of the world is not as lucky as we are. They're staving out there because earth's population has continued to rise. The population on earth is 5.5 billion — up by 1.5 billion since 1977 — and outside the United States and Europe, not more than one in five has enough to eat at any given time. There is high infant mortality rate.
It's more than just starvation, though. There are those who manage to survive on barely enough to keep the body working, and that proves to be not enough for the brain. It is estimated that nearly two billion people in the world are permanently brain-damaged by under-nutrition, and the number is growing.
At least the big armies are gone. Only the United States and the Soviet Union can maintain a few tanks, planes, and ships —which they dare not move for fear of biting into limited fuel reserves.
Machines must be replaced by human muscle and beasts of burden. People are working longer hours, and with lighting restricted, television only three hours a night, new books few and printed in small editions—what is there to do with leisure？ Work, sleep, and eating are the ,great trinity of 1977 ,and only the first two are guaranteed.
What is the passage about？
A．It is a history of life in 1977.
B．It is the description of life after a war.
C．It is an imaginary account of life in 1977.
D．It is a scientific study of life in 1977.
