听力原文：The inhabitants of Tango, a small island in the South Pacific, discovered a plant

听力原文： The inhabitants of Tango, a small island in the South Pacific, discovered a plant that contained a powerful drug. This drug made it more difficult for them to think rationally—it stopped them worrying about the future, and enabled them to forget all their problems. At the same time, it made it much easier for them to relax and enjoy themselves: so much so, indeed, that the whole population of the island stopped working and spent all their time singing and dancing and looking at the sea. Unfortunately this had a very bad effect on the country's economy, and people began to run short of food. This, however, didn't discourage the people from taking the drug. The Prime Minister made speeches on the TV warning them about the drug, but nobody took any notice, and before long the economy was in ruins. This forced the Government to make the drug illegal. But that only made the situation worse. The law couldn't prevent the people from taking the drug, which grew wild all over the island. Eventually, the Government found a better solution: they exported the drug to other countries. This saved the islanders from having to work more than one day a week, and allowed them to spend the rest of their time sitting in the sun without a care in the world.

(26)

A．The drug made them lose &he ability to work.

B．The drug made it more difficult for people to think rationally.

C．The drug stopped people from worrying about the future.

D．The drug enabled people to forget all their problems.

听力原文： We usually think of history us the story of important people and events, but some historians are also interested in the daily lives of ordinary people (32) . We can get this kind of information from written documents like diaries and town records, but we can also learn a lot from studying old family portraits.

Family portraits provide clues about things like the size of the family and the hobbies and tastes of family members. The number of children in a portrait, for example, indicates the size of the family, the types of clothing family members wore for the portrait suggest the popular fashions of the time. The objects that children hold in their hands can give clues about the games they played and their hobbies (34) . The background of a family portrait gives historians an idea of room size and furnishings and even the wealth and social position of the family (35) . All of these details help historians understand more about the everyday lives of some of the ordinary people from the past (33) .

(33)

A．Dates and names that cannot be verified.

B．Unusual works of art.

听力原文： The media is a general word for radio, television, film, newspapers, magazines and books. These are all ways to communicate with a large number of people in a very short time. Since the arrival of radio, and television in particular, the world has been getting smaller.

Today by using satellites which go round the Earth, television can reach about 2.5 billion people. An international sports event like the Olympic Games is sent live into the homes of half the people in the world. News pictures of wars and disasters such as earthquakes are seen immediately by people in safe, comfortable homes on the other side of the world. This can change the way people act and think—it can even change the way governments act. For example, in the sixties the terrible news pictures from Vietnam turned the American people against the war there, and in the end the U.S. government had to bring home the troops.

(33)

A．Radio.

B．Television.

C．Newspapers.

D．Books and magazines.
