What happens when his space requiremerits are not adequately met? Sociologists and psychologists are conducting experiments on rats to try to determine the effects of overcrowded conditions on man. Recent studies have shown that thebehavior of rats is greatly affected by space. If rats have adequate living space,they eat well,sleep well,and reproduce well.However if their living conditions become too crowded, their behavior patterns and e-ven their health perceptibly change. They cannot sleep and eat well, and signs of fear and tension become obvious. The more crowded they are, the more they tend to bite each other and even kill each other. Thus for rats, population and violence are directly related. Is this a natural law for human society as well? Is adequate space not only desirable, but essential for human survival? Questions 16 to 18 are basedon the passage you have just heard.16.For what purpose did the scientists conduct the experiments on rats?17.When the rats become over-crowded, which one of the behavior patterns is not shown in theexperiment?18.What did the experiments prove?Passage TwoColumbus sailed from Spain in September 1492, looking for gold. Native Americans greeted him, offering gifts of corn. Columbus found little gold on that trip,but he collected many plants,including corn to bring back to Spain. Columbus didn't know it. But the corn was much more valuable than gold. Farmers from Europe to Asia accepted it immediately. They grew it on cold mountain sides and in tropical forest. Today it feeds millions of people all over the world. On his second trip, Columbus brought back a bag of chocolate beans to make chocolate. Europeans and Asians loved this new drink,and soon they were paying a great deal of money for the beans.Chocolate beans became so valuable in Central America that they were used as cash for 200 years. Tomatoes and potatoes took some time to become popular. Eventually, however, they became the basis of a lot of popular food. It is hard to imagine life without fried potatoes and chocolate. Thanks to native American cultures, many people are able to enjoy lots of tasty food. Questions 19 to 21 are based on the passage you have just heard.19.Why is corn feeding millions of people today?20.What did Columbus bring back on his second trip?21.What was the result of Columbus' two trips to America?Passage ThreeIn its early years, the Children's Book Show was intended mainly for teachers and librarians. As it became more widely known.and successful, more and more family and school parties began to come so that it grew into a real children's book show and a show with a double purpose. For years it was held in various halls in London. In answer to enthusiastic invitations to bring it to different parts of the country, the decision was taken to move outside the capital. One year it was held in Leeds, then in Bristol as well as in London, and now it comes to Glasgow. This year's show will again interest both the general public and specialists. Admission will be free, but school parties must be booked in advance. In a large room near the entrance there will be a self-service bookshop where every book on show will be for sale.Questions 22 to 25 are based on the passage you have just heard.22.What are the books in the exhibition intended for?23.Who was the show intended for in its early years?24.What caused the book show to grow?25.What must parties of school children do this year?Section CHave you had a headache recently? The pain can be (26) temporary, mild and cured by a simple painkiller like aspirin. Or, it can be (27) severe.More than forty five (28) million people in the United States suffer chronic(fj|'|4l^J) headaches. The US Headache Consortium is a group with seven member (29) organizations. They are (30) attempting to improve treatment of one kind of headache—the mi-graine(j^^'H:'i^^tc^). Some people experience this kind ofpain as often as two weeks every month. About seventy percent of migraine (31) sufferers are women.Some people (32) describe the pain as similar to a repeated beat. Others compare it to someone driving a sharp (33) object into the head. Some people take medicine every day to prevent or ease migraine headaches. (34) Others use medicine to control pain already developed. Doctors treating migraine sufferers often order medicines from a group of certain drugs. (35) Most migraines react at least partly to existing medicine. And most people can use existing medicine without experiencing bad effects. (36) Doctors sometimes use caffeine to treat migraine headaches. Interestingly, caffeine also can cause some migraines.Model T est 91-5 DDBCC 6-10 ACBBC 11-15 CCBCD 16-20 BCDDD 21-25 BDADC 26. temporary 27. severe 28. million 29. organizations 30. attempting 31. sufferers 32. describe 33. object34.

polishers,including politicians and people in high offices—just about everybody.Oliver Cromwell,the great English leader,offered many gifts to win the support of George Fox and his party,but failed.There are other phrases meaning the same thing as “applepolishing”—“softsoaping”or “butteringup”.A gift is just one way to “softsoap”somebody,or to “butter him up”.Another that is just as effective is flattery,giving someone high praise—telling him how good he looks,or how well he speaks,or how talented and wise he is.Endless are the ways of flattery.Who does not love to hear it?Only an unusual man can resist the thrill of being told how wonderful he is.In truth,flattery is good medicine for most of us,who get so little of it.We need it to be more sure of ourselves.It cannot hurt unless we get carried away by it.But if we just lap it up for its food value and nourishment,as a cat laps up milk,then we can still remain true to ourselves.Sometimes,however,flattery will get you nothing from one who has had too much of it.A good example is the famous 12th century legend of King Canute of Denmark and England.The king got tired of listening to endless sickening flattery of his courtiers(朝臣).They overpraised him to the skies,as a man of limitless might.He decided to teach them a lesson.He took them to the seashore and sat down.Then he ordered the waves to stop coming in.The tide was too busy to listen to him.The king was satisfied.This might show his followers how weak his power was and how empty their flattery.21.Which of the following activities has nothing to do with “applepolishing”?A.A boy tells his girlfriend how pretty she looks.B.An employee tells her boss how good he is at management.C.A king is said to be of limitless power by his followers.D.A teacher praises her students for their talent and wisdom.22.What does the writer want to prove with Cromwell’s example?A.Everybody can be an apple polisher.B.Cromwell was not a good apple polisher.C.George Fox and his party were not apple polishers.D.There are people who don’t like being apple polished.23.Which of the following statements about flattery is TRUE according to the author?A.Too much flattery can carry us away.B.Flattery is too empty to do people any good.C.Flattery can get you nothing but excessive(过度的) pride.D.Flattery is one of the ways to applepolish people.24.Why did King Canute of Denmark and England take his followers to the seashore?A.Because he was sick of his normal life.B.Because he disliked being overpraised any more.C.Because he wanted them to realize how wise he was.D.Because he wanted them to see how weak he was as a king.BWelcome to France!Here are some places of interest in Paris.Louvre MuseumThe collection of the Louvre Museum was first established in the 16th century as the private collection of King Francis Ⅰ.One of the works of art he purchased was the now famous Mona Lisa painting.The collection grew steadily thanks to donations and purchases by the kings.In 1793,during the French Revolution,the Louvre became a national art museum and the private royal collection opened to the public.The museum has a collection of over 1 million works of art,of which about 35,000 are on display,spread out over three wings(侧厅) of the former palace.The museum has a diverse collection ranging from ancient times up to the mid 19th century.Wine TastingFrench Wine Tasting in Paris:whether you are a wine beginner or a real experienced one,one of these tastings is for you!You will taste a wonderful variety of French wines:from Alsace to Bordeaux,from Burgundy to ChateauneufduPape.With an unusual approach,focused on fun and joy,your French sommelier(侍酒师)will allow you to learn and enjoy the pleasures of wine!There are different ways of tasting to choose from and each is unique,like Wine Appreciation Class,French Wine Regions Presentation,Reading a French Label and the possibility to buy wine.Your Wine Tasting takes place at a French sommelier’s home,in a beautiful loft(阁楼) with air conditioning.Lido ShowThis evening will begin with the abundant recipes which have been styled incooperation with the famous French chef,Paul Bocuse.The orchestra invites you to the dance floor.At 9:30 pm the Lido’s curtain rises for a nonstop hour of magic...as performance after performance bursts onto the stage.After dinner,you’ll discover the Lido’s unique show.Special effects,incredible settings,magnificent costumes,the display of lights,music rhythms and exceptional entertainments are all pure enchantment.Book your tickets for the Lido dinner show in advance on our website.25.When did the Louvre Museum become open to the public?A.In the 16th century.B.In the 17th century.C.In the 18th century.D.In the 19th century.26.Which is NOT the way mentioned in the passage to appreciate wine in Paris?A.French Wine Regions Presentation.B.Wine Appreciation Class.C.Dating with the French sommelier.D.Reading a French Label.27.What’s the closest meaning of the underlined word “enchantment”in the last paragraph?A.Charm. B.Shock.C.Disappointment. D.Puzzle.CThe baby is just one day old and has not yet left hospital. She is quiet but alert (警觉).Twenty centimeters from her face researchers have placed a white card with two black spots on it. She stares at it carefully. A researcher removes the card and replaces it by another, this time with the spots differently spaced. As the cards change from one to the other, her gaze (凝视) starts to lose its focus — until a third, with three black spots, is presented.Her gaze returns: she looks at it for twice as long as she did at the previous card. Can she tell that the number two is different from three, just 24 hours after coming into the world?Or do newborns simply prefer more to fewer? The same experiment, but with three spots shown before two, shows the same return of interest when the number of spots changes. Perhaps it is just the newness? When slightly older babies were showncards with pictures of objects (a comb, a key, an orange and so on), changing the number of objects had an effect separate from changing the objects themselves. Could it be the pattern that two things make, as opposed to three? No again. Babies paid more attention to squares moving randomly on a screen when their number changed from two to three, or three to two.The effect even crosses between senses. Babies who were repeatedly shown two spots became more excited when they then heard three drumbeats than when they heard just two; likewise (同样地) when the researchers started with drumbeats and moved to spots.28.The experiment described in Paragraph 1 is related to the baby's ________.A.sense of hearing B.sense of sightC.sense of touch D.sense of smell29.Babies are sensitive to the change in ________.A.the size of cards B.the colour of picturesC.the shape of patterns D.the number of objects30.Why did the researchers test the babies with drumbeats?A.To reduce the difficulty of the experiment.B.To see how babies recognize sounds.C.To carry their experiment further.D.To keep the babies' interest.31.Where does this text probably come from?A.Science fiction.B.Children's literature.C.An advertisement.D.A science report.DWhen asked about happiness, we usually think of something extraordinary, an absolute delight, which seems to get rarer the older we get.For kids,happiness has a magical quality.Their delight at winning a race or getting a new bike is unreserved (毫无掩饰的).In the teenage years the concept of happiness changes.Suddenly it's conditional on such things as excitement, love and popularity.I can still recall the excitement ofbeing invited to dance with the most attractive boy at the school party.In adulthood the things that bring deep joy — love, marriage, birth — also bring responsibility and the risk of loss.For adults, happiness is complicated (复杂的).My definition of happiness is “the capacity for enjoyment”.The more we can enjoy what we have, the happier we are.It's easy to overlook the pleasure we get from the company of friends, the freedom to live where we please,and even good health.I experienced my little moments of pleasure yesterday.First I was overjoyed when I shut the last lunchbox and had the house to myself.Then I spent an uninterrupted morning writing,which I love.When the kids and my husband came home, I enjoyed their noise after the quiet of the day.Psychologists tell us that to be happy we need a mix of enjoyable leisure time and satisfying work.I don't think that my grandmother, who raised 14 children, had much of either.She did have a network of close friends and family, and maybe this is what satisfied her.We, however, with so many choices and such pressure to succeed in every area, have turned happiness into one more thing we've got to have.We're so selfconscious about our “right” to it that it's making us miserable.So we chase it and equal it with wealth and success, without noticing that the people who have those things aren't necessarily happier.Happiness isn't about what happens to us — it's about how we see what happens to us.It's the skillful way of finding a positive for every negative.It's not wishing for what we don't have, but enjoying what we do possess.32.As people grow older, they ________.A.feel it harder to experience happinessB.associate their happiness less with othersC.will take fewer risks in pursuing happinessD.tend to believe responsibility means happiness33.What can we learn about the author from Paragraphs 5 and 6?A.She cares little about her own health.B.She enjoys the freedom of traveling.C.She is easily pleased by things in daily life.D.She prefers getting pleasure from housework.34.What can be inferred from Paragraph 7?A.Psychologists think satisfying work is key to happiness.B.Psychologists' opinion is well proved by Grandma's case.C.Grandma often found time for social gatherings.D.Grandma's happiness came from modest expectations of life.35.What can be concluded from the passage?A.Happiness lies between the positive and the negative.B.Each man is the master of his own fate.C.Success leads to happiness.D.Happy is he who is

I’m Susan Welch.Well, first, I would like to say a few words to my dear listeners who are not very familiar with this program.Since many people want to listen to and understand pop songs, radio producers at BCD International have made hundreds of programs over the years. We have a vast library of“golden old songs”, classics, as well as the“latest pop songs”.For those of you who like a bit of background with your favorite music, there’s The History of Pop or The Road to Music. These two series bring you the language of pop music and information about the periods and the artists. If you want to hear from the artists themselves, there’s a new series called About the Big Hits. This is based on interviews with popular singers and songwriters. They talk to us about the meaning and ideas behind their songs.If you want to understand the words to the big music hits, Pop Words is the program for you. After all it’s hard enough for native English speakers to understand most pop songs. So if English isn’t your first la nguage, you shouldn’t be surprised if the words to many songs leave you in the dark.答案:10. A 11. B 12. A 13. A 14. C 15. A 16. B 17. C 18. C19. B 20. C。

It’s much more interesting than modem houses.W: I agree.M: Well, when are we going horseback riding, Marie?W: Let’s go right after I give you a tour of the farm.M: OK, that’s great.7. M: Hi, young lady. How may I help you?W: Well... yeah. I’m looking for a Father’s Day’s gift.M: Okay. How about getting your father a new wallet?W: Hmm. How much is that wallet?M: Huh... which one?W: The black one.M: Oh. It’s only $ 40.95W: Huh? That’s too expensive for me. Do you have a cheaper one?M: Hmm. How about this brown leather one?W: Hmm... I don’t think my father will like the desi gn on the outside, and it doesn’t have a place to put pictures. How much is it anyway?M: It’s $ 25.99.W: Hmm. I don’t have that much money.M: Okay. How much do you have to spend?W: I’m not sure. Probably about ten dollars or so. I’ve been helping my mom around the house for the past week to earn some money. This is all I have.M: Hmm. How about this tie?W: That’s real pretty, but the price tag says $13.99, and I know I don’t have that much money.M: Well, let’s just say the tie just went on sale. How about $5.00? What do you say?W: Oh, thanks. I’ll take it.W: Wake up, Erik, time to rise and shine.M: Ha, oh, hi, Jane, I must have fallen asleep while I was reading.W. You and everyone else. It looks more like a campground than a library.M: Well, the c lassroom’s too noisy to study in and I guess this place is too quiet.W: Have you had any luck finding a topic for your paper?M: No, Professor Grant told us to write about anything on Eastern culture.For once I wish she had not given us so much of a choice.W: Well, why not write about Chinese culture? You seem to be interested in that part of the world.M: I am, but there is too much material to cover. I’ll be writing forever, and Professor Grant only wants five to seven pages.W: So then limit it to one place in China, say Beijing. You’ve been there and you said it’s got lots of places of interest and you enjoyed your trip very much.M: That’s not a bad idea. I brought many books and things back with me last summer. That would be great resource materials, now if I can only remember where I put them.9. W: So Peter, you’re going to tell us how to make a million.M: Well, to go back to the beginning, um, I went to study design after leaving school. AndI was there for two years, um when I left college, I decided to go off and see a bit of the world.W: Where did you go?M: Well, a friend of mine got a job in Brazil, so I decided to go and have a look at Brazil. And I had a wonderful time. The social life was very good, and I made a lot of wonderful friends. Some of these friends then decided to drive up to the USA. It seemed like a very good opportunity to see some more of the world, so I joined them. But we had a terrible experience in Central America. We were stolen away by force by bad men, believe it or not, and it was two year before I got away from them.W: What an extraordinary experience!10. Well, I think generally speaking, we could say that there are four stages to culture shock. First of all, the “honeymoon” st age. Uh, to thevisitor, everything seems new, unusual, and strange. The food, the surroundings, the buildings. And it produces a feeling of excitement—a desire to look around, to experiment, and to explore.The next stage is the “horror” stage, where the newness wears off, and the visitor sees the country from a different perspective, and often begins to criticize the country, the life, and the values of the people.The next stage, we could say, is the “humor” stage, where people begin to reflect back and laugh at their mistakes in the earlier stages.And the final stage, we could say, is the “home” stage where people begin to feel at home, and enjoy living in that foreign country.参考答案:Key: 1~5 BCABB 6~10 CCAAC 11~15 ACBCB 16~20 CABAB。
