听力原文： In the 19th century it was common to hear people in Europe and America say that the resources of the sea were unlimited. For example, a noted biologist writing in the mid 1800s commented that all of the great sea-fish industries are inexhaustible. Today there's evidence that the resources of the sea are as seriously threatened as those of the land and the air, and the concern of conservationists now includes sea-fish as well as the African elephant, the Indian tiger and the American eagle. Further, the threat to fish is more alarming in some ways than the threat to birds and land animals because fish are a much needed food resource. Many people throughout the world depend on fish as an important part of their diets, and a decline in the fish supply could have extensive effects on hunger and population.

(23)

A．That they were in infinite.

B．That they should be carefully conserved.

C．That they were declining.

D．That they were limited.

听力原文：Television in America gives people the choice of many different programs on many

听力原文： Television in America gives people the choice of many different programs on many different channels. However, many people today are criticizing the quality of the programs. According to these critics, there are too many programs that only entertain; there are not enough interesting programs that give information about the world around us. Perhaps the lack of serious programs is the fault of the commercial television system, not the fault of the people who own or who control the television stations. Television in America depends on money of people who advertise their products on television. Therefore, television stations need to attract advertisers. The programs which attract advertisers are, of course, the programs which have large audiences. And the programs which attract large audiences are usually programs with lots of entertainment and action. Programs about serious subjects, for instance, medicine, science, or history, are not very popular, so advertisers do not buy commercial time during programs like these. The commercial system, therefore, has a great influence on the kind of programs that television stations decide to show.

Why do many people criticize TV programs in the U. S.？

A．There are not enough programs to entertain.

B．There are not enough programs to show the life of ordinary people.

C．There are too many programs to educate.

D．There are not enough serious programs.

听力原文：W: The Americans came from America. That's easy, isn't it？M: I'm sorry to say you

听力原文：W: The Americans came from America. That's easy, isn't it？

M: I'm sorry to say you are wrong! The Americans came from almost every part of the world. That's to say, mare than 230 million people now call America home, but most of them can trace their families back to other parts of the world. That's why America has long been known as a "melting pot". It is believed that the first to arrive were the American Indians. They came titan Asia in very ancient times, more than 10,000 years ago. There used to be millions of them, but today they only number about 850,000. Half of them live on special land of their own in 31 states, while the others have "melted" in with the rest of America's 230 million people.

W: Do the American Indians have anything to do with the Indians of India？

M: No, nothing. As a matter of fact, the American Indiana came from Siberia.

W: Then, why do people call them Indians？

M: Because when Christopher Columbus made his historic voyage in 1492, he expected to reach India. So he called the people of the New World "Indians" and Indian is the name that has remained till now.

(26)

A．Because Americans love melting pot.

B．Because Americans came from almost every part of the world.

C．Because America is famous for melting pot.
