听力原文: No one knows exactly how many disabled people there are in the world, but estimates suggest the figure is over 450 million. The number of disabled people in India alone is probably more than double the total population of Canada.

In the United Kingdom, about one in ten people have some disability. Disability is not just something that happens to other people: as we get older, many of us will become less mobile, hard of hearing or have failing eyesight.

Disablement can take many forms and occur at any time of life. Some people are born with disabilities. Many others become disabled as they get older. There are many progressive disabling diseases. The longer time goes on, the worse they become. Some people are disabled in accidents. Many others may have a period of disability in the form. of a mental illness. All are affected by people's attitude towards them.

Disabled people face many physical barriers. Next time you go shopping imagine how you would manage if you could not get on to buses or trains. How would you cope if you could not hear the traffic? But there are still other barriers: prejudice can be even harder to break down and ignorance inevitably represents by far the greatest barrier of all. It is almost impossible for the able-bodied to fully understand what the severely disabled go through, so it is important to draw attention to these barriers and show that it is the individual personality and their ability, not their disability, which counts.

(26)

A.There are many disabled people in the world.

B.The number of disabled people in India is the greatest.

C.India has twice as many disabled people as in Canada.

D.It is impossible to get an exact figure of the world's disabled people.

听力原文: Villages in developing countries often lack many things. Books, clean water, electricity. These shortages are easy to see. But a different kind of shortage is not easy to see. That is a shortage of experts. Many villages have no doctors, engineers or scientists. They have no one who knows how to treat unusual medical problems or design a new energy system. Them' s a way to ease these problems. They can de it with computers. In the past few years, computer scientists around the world have developed what they call expert systems. An expert system is a special kind of computer program. In some situations, it can take the place of a human expert. For example, an expert in medical system can help care for a sick person. A question appears on the computer screen, "Is the person hot?" You tell the computer either yes or no. The computer asks other questions. "Has the person lest any blood?" "Can the person move normally?" You answer. The computer continues to ask questions until it has enough information to make a decision. Then it tells what medicine or other treatment is needed. In this way the ex pert system takes the place of a doctor. Another kind of expert system takes the place of an engineer. It measures the flow of water in a river. It tells if a dam can be built on the river. It also tells how much electricity can be produced. Still other kinds of expert systems help solve problems for farmers and owners of small businesses.

A.Lack of electricity.

B.Shortage of books.

听力原文:As the proverb says, "No one knows the value of health until he loses it." In oth

听力原文: As the proverb says, "No one knows the value of health until he loses it." In other words, nothing is more valuable than health.

It is clear that health is the foundation of one's future success. If you become sick, it is nearly impossible to pursue your career effectively, much less to make your dreams come true. On the other hand, if you are strong, you can go all out to overcome the obstacles that lie ahead of you. Health is the resource of our energy. What should we do to maintain our health? First, we should exercise every day to strengthen our muscles. Second, we might as well keep good hours, ff we get up early, we can breathe fresh air and see the sunrise. This habit can do wonders for our outlook on life. Third, there is a proverb that says, "Prevention is better than cure." ff you pay close attention to your health, you can avoid getting sick, or at least cure yourself of a disease while it is still in its beginning stage.

In conclusion, health is more important than wealth. Those who are rich but poor in health are on more fortunate than those who are poor, but healthy in body. If you want your wish to come true, health is the most important component of your success.

(30)

A.Wealth.

B.Health.

C.Habit.

D.Disease.

听力原文:Some psychologists maintain that mental acts such as thinking are not performed i

听力原文: Some psychologists maintain that mental acts such as thinking are not performed in the brain alone, but that one's muscles also participate. It may be said that we think with our muscles in somewhat the same way that we listen to music with our bodies. You surely are not surprised to be told that you usually listen to music not only with your ears but with your whole body. Few people can listen to music that is more or less familiar without moving their body or, more specifically, some part of their body. Often when one listens to a symphonic concert on the radio, one is tempted to direct the orchestra even though one knows there is a competent conductor on the job.

Strange as this behavior. may be, there is a very good reason for it. One cannot derive all possible enjoyment from music unless one participates, so to speak, in its performance. The listener "feels" himself into the music with more or less pronounced motions of his body.

The muscles of the body actually participate in the mental process of thinking in the same way, although this participation is less obvious because it is less pronounced.

(30)

A.Thinking is not a mental process.

B.Thinking was only a mental action.

C.Thinking is a process that involves our entire body.

D.Thinking is a process that involves the muscles as well as the brain.

听力原文:No one knows exactly why we sleep. But scientists have learned a lot about how we

听力原文: No one knows exactly why we sleep. But scientists have learned a lot about how we sleep. From sleep experiments, scientists have learned that there are four different stages of sleep.

When you first fall asleep, your heart starts to beat more slowly and your breathing slows down. If something wakes you, you might not think that you had been asleep. Some people call this kind of sleep dozing. Scientists call it Stage One sleep. Next, if you are not awakened, you drift into a deeper sleep. Your pulse and breathing become even slower than they were during Stage One sleep. But you can still be awakened quite easily. If you take a cat nap, you probably will not get any further than this stage of sleep, which is called Stage Two.

If you sleep longer than about twenty minutes, you go into the third stage of sleep. Your body is very relaxed. It would take a loud noise to wake you up.

You have probably heard of people who walk in their sleep. No one knows what makes people sleepwalk. But a person can sleepwalk only during Stage Four. This is the deepest kind of sleep. If someone wakes you up during stage four, you might feel very confused. It might take you a few minutes to get used to being awake.

(30)

A.Reasons for People's Sleeping.

B.Four Stages of Sleep.

C.Reasons for sleepwalking.

D.A Sleep Experiment.

There're Gypsies all over the world, and many of them are still traveling with no fix homes, There are about 8 million of them, including 3 million in eastern Europe. Gypsies sometimes have a hard time in the countries where they travel, because they are different. People may be afraid of them, look down on them, or think that they are criminals. The Nazis treated the Gypsies cruelly, like the Jews, and nobody knows how many of them died in Hitler's death camps.

Gypsies have their own language, Romany. They like music and dancing. And they often work in fairs and traveling shows. Traveling is very important to them, and many Gypsies are unhappy if they have to stay in one place. Because of this, it is difficult for Gypsy children to go to school.

In sonic places, the education authorities tried to arrange special traveling schools for Gypsy children, so that they can get the same education as other children.

(26)

A.They liked traveling.

B.The reasons are unknown.

C.They were driven out of their homes.

听力原文: Everywhere we look, we see Americans running. They run for every reason anybody could think of. They run for health, for beauty, to lose weight, to feel fit, and because it is the thing they love to do. Every year, for example, thousands of people run in one race, the Boston Marathon, the best known long distance race in the United States. In recent years there have been nearly 5,000 official competitors and it takes three whole minutes for the crowd of runners just to cross the starting line.

You may have heard the story of the Greek runner, Pheidippides. He ran from Marathon to Athens to deliver the news of the great victory 2,500 years ago. No one knows how long it took him to run the distance. But the story tells us that he died of the effort. Today in very few cases will one die in a Marathon race. But at the finish line, we see what this race is about; not being first, but finishing. The real victory is not over one's fellow runners, but over one's own body. It is a victory of will-power over fatigue. In the Boston Marathon, each person who crosses that finish line is a winner.

(30)

A.Three minutes.

B.Two Minutes.

C.One minutes.

D.Five minutes.

听力原文:Hello, everyone. I'd like to tell you a story about Miss Richards.

One year, the first class had been studying chemistry for several weeks when Miss Richards suddenly asked, "What is water7 Who knows? Hands up."

There was silence for a few seconds, and Miss Richards felt sad but then one boy raised his hand. "Yes, Dick?" said Miss Richards encouragingly. He was not one of the brightest students in the class, so she was glad this boy could answer.

"Water is a liquid which has no color until you wash your hands in it, then it turns black," the boy replied.

What was Miss Richards?

A.A chemistry teacher.

B.A physics teacher.

C.A science teacher.
