听力原文： For twenty-five years I was a full time thief, specializing in picking pockets. In southeast London, that's an honorable profession. Anyone can break in a house and steal things, but picking somebody's pocket takes skill. My sister and I were among the most successful pickpocket teams in London. We worked in hotels' theater lobbies, airports, shopping centers and restaurants. Now we don't steal anymore, but this crime is worldwide. Here's how to protect yourself. Professional pickpockets do not see victims, only handbags, jewels and money. Mothers with babies, the elderly, and the disabled are all fair game. My preferred target was the lone female, the handbag at her side, the right side to be exact. So if I'm next to her, I can reach it cautiously with my right hand across my body. Only about one woman in a thousand carries her bag on the left, and I tended to steer clear of them. Women whose bags are hanging in front of them are tricky for the pickpocket as there isn't a blind side. If you want to make it even harder, use a bag with handles rather than a strap. For men, one of the best places to keep a wallet is in the back pocket of tight trousers. You'll feel any attempts to move it. Another good place is in the buttoned up inside pocket of a jacket. There is just no way in. Even better, keep wallets attached to a cord or chain that is fastened to a belt. A pickpocket needs targets who are relaxed and off guard. The perfect setting is a clothing store. When customers wander among the racks they are completely absorbed in the items they hold up. The presence of a uniformed security guard is even better. A false sense of security makes a pickpocket's job much simpler.
Why does the speaker say that picking somebody's pocket is an honorable profession in southeast London？
A．It's admired worldwide.
B．It takes skill.
C．It pays well.
D．It's a full-time job.

Intellectual Revolution
Culture is activity of thought, and receptiveness to beauty and humane feeling. Scraps of information have nothing to do with it. A merely well-informed man is the most useless51on God&39;s earth. What we should52at producing is men who possess both culture and expert knowledge in some special direction.Their expert knowledge will give them the ground to start53, and their culture will lead them as54as philosophy and as high as art. We have to remember that the valuable55development is self-development,and that it56takes place between the ages of sixteen and thirty. As to training, the most important part is given by mothers before the age of twelve.
In training a child to activity of thought, above all things we must beware of what I will call "inert ideas" -that is to say, ideas that are merely.57into the mind without being utilized, or tested, or thrown into fresh combinations. In the history of education, the most58phenomenon is that schools of learning, which at one epoch are alive with a craze for genius, in a59generation exhibit merely pedantry and routine. The reason is that they are overladen with inert ideas. Except at60intervals of intellectual motivation, education in the past has been radically 61with inert ideas. That is the reason why. 62clever women, who have seen much of the world, are in middle life so much the most cultured part of the community. They have been saved from this horrible63of inert ideas. Every intellectual revolution which has ever stirred humanity64 greatness has been a65protest against inert ideas.

In the 20th century, the proliferation of cars, radios, movies, televisions, mass retailers and computers all inspired a sense that we had begun a New Era. Each breakthrough promised new fiches and unprecedented prosperity for the innovators. But in the long run, they always failed to deliver to investors the expected rewards.
Why the letdowns？ In part because every great innovator invariably attracted great imitators,who competed with the original and eventually depressed his "excessive" profit margin by commoditizing the invention. Furthermore, great inventions have always been followed by greater innovations (创新), which, through the process known as creative destruction, render the previous new technology obsolete. And when inventions become vital to the economy, they are frequently brought under the control of governments via regulation, nationalization and, in extreme cases, expropriation.
Take the Erie Canal, which was completed in 1825. Its success led to the great American canal boom of the 1830s. It ended just a few years later in a tremendous failure, as most of the other canals failed to make money. The Erie, too, began to suffer from competition, first from railroads and, eventually, from trucks. In the end, the railroad industry -- which helped create an unprecedented industrial boom -- proved to be disastrous for most investors. By 1895, most U. S. railroads had to be restructured.
Now familiar technologies like cars, radios, cash registers and mainframe. computers were all at some point new and revolutionary. But the spread of the technologies led inevitably to the demise of their creators' "excessive" profits, as each became just another commodity, Don't think for a minute that the Internet will be any different.
第 22 题 It is implied in the passage that_____________
A．the growth of the Internet business is too fast
B．the spread of a new invention can make people live better
C．most Internet companies are unlikely to be out of business
D．some survived Internet companies can achieve some meaningful earnings

A CAREER IN RETAILING
Keeping the customer satisfied is central to the retail business．But how much job satisfaction can workers in the retail trade expect？
Five people who work in retailing talk about their careers．
A
Steve Cain is deputy director of trading for a large supermarket．He says，“When I moved into the retail sector I found it offered more tangible achievements and rewards than my previous business consultancy work．The power base has changed in the industry，and it's the retailers who are now driving things forward．Before，buyers waited for the product to come in and negotiated the price with the manufacturers，but now in food retailing，it's the retailers themselves who are developing their own brands and fixing prices，which makes it an exciting field to work in．
B
Virginia Clement is support and development manager for a large clothing department store．
" This means I am responsible for all the buying and merchandising．This demands teamwork。 and for me this is one of the most attractive aspects of work ing at head office．You have a lot of contact with people，from shop floor staff to suppl iers．We work in a very open environment and we're very team orientated．Each team is responsible for getting a particular product to the store on time and in the right quantities．"
C
Tim Edlund，who works in buying for a large clothing store，says，" The buyer has to have some flair for design，but balancing that，you need a strategic view and business acumen．
There are numerous factors influencing a buyer's choice of product range for each season．I have to beware of current trends in the suppliers'market？competitors'activity and both local and global customer demand．I go all over Britain to keep abreast of this information．
Working hours are very irregular，so it's the complete opposite to a 9 to 5 job．It can be extremely exhausting，but I love it．"
D
Diane Maxwell is buying controller for women's wear for a home shopping catalogue company．
She says that，despite the hard work，her job remains varied and satisfying．" I've gained a huge range of skills with the company in various fields，both through formal courses and by means of on-the-job training．The scope of the buying role is extremely broad．It's not just about the product．The focus of the job is 0n producing a profitable range and that requires extensive business knowledge．"
E
Jan Shaw is personnel director of a supermarket．She says．" What we really want to do in our company is taking on people witil a real interest in trade rather than managers who only want to complete a job as fast as possible．Our new graduate recruitment programme aims to de exactly that．The induction programme introduces all aspects of working for our company，giving early responsibility and first-hand experience of the company's working culture．Career development within the company is based on general management skills rather than specialisation，so whatever department they are in，employees will focus on similar aims．
The way this market operates has been transformed．
