听力原文: Now, I' d like to talk about psychological space.
Not everyone in the world requires the same amount of living space. The amount of space a person needs around him is a cultural preference, not an economic one. Knowing our own psychological space needs is important because they strongly influence your choices, including, for example, the number of bedrooms in the home. If you were reared in a two-child family and both you and your sister or brother had your own bedrooms, the chances are, if you have two children or more, that you also will provide separate bedrooms for them. In America they train people to want their own private rooms by giving them their own rooms when they are babies. This is very rare in the world. In many cultures the baby sleeps in the same bed with his parents or in a crib near their bed.
The areas in the home where people gravitate also reveals a lot about psychological space needs. Some families cluster, and the size of their house has nothing to do with it. Others have separate little niches where family members go to be alone.
Although it is tree that psychological space needs are not determined by economic factors, they sometimes have to be modified a little because of economic pressures. It is almost impossible, however, to completely change your psychological space needs.
Which of the following is the factor that determines human beings' psychological space needs?
A.Economic factors.
B.Pressure in life.
C.Individual preference.
D.Cultural preference.

听力原文: The Giant Panda is also known as the "Panda Bear", "Bamboo Bear", or in Chinese as "Daxiongmao", which means "large bear cat". The scientific name means "black and white cat-footed animal".
As for the history of the Giant Panda, it is said that the earliest appearance of the Panda was somewhere between the late Pliocene or early Pleistocene periods—two to three million years ago.
Panda fossils have been discovered in the areas of Burma and Vietnam and in particular, East China, as far north as Beijing.
In the second century AD the Giant Panda was a rare and semi-divine animal inside China. In the Han Dynasty, the emperor's garden, in what was then known as the capital—Xi'an, held nearly 40 rare animal species, of which the panda was the most highly treasured.
Scientists have debated for more than a century whether Giant Pandas actually do belong to the bear family or whether they are more related to the raccoon family or perhaps a separate family of their own. This is because the Giant Panda and its cousin, "the Lesser" or "Red Panda", share many characteristics with both bears and raccoons.
Recent DNA analysis indicates that Giant Pandas are most definitely of the bear species although different enough to be put into its own sub family. The red pandas are more closely related to raccoons. Giant Pandas are categorized in the bear family while Red Pandas are categorized in the raccoon family.

School buildings themselves can show liberal (开明的) or conservative views about what should go on in a classroom. The earliest schools had separate classrooms for different grades. The rooms were laid out formally, with pupils’desks fastened to the floor in straight rows facing the teacher’s desk. Clearly, such schools reflected a teacher-and-subject-centered view of education. Schools of the next generation had more open space, and most had movable desks. They also often provided special rooms or areas for science, art, music, and physical education. There were still separate rooms for different grade levels, however, and the desks still were likely to be formally arranged. That is, the schoolroom was still largely designed to carry out the old-school program, which involved grade levels, uniform. time blocks, and study of subject matters. Newer subjects, not newer teaching methods, accounted for most of what was new in school design. The first school buildings constructed to encourage liberal teaching methods appeared in the mid-1950s. Folding interior (内部的) walls permitted the flexible use of space to encourage large-group, small-group, or individual instruction. Some provided carrels for individual study, areas for team teaching, and centers for programmed instruction. In the newest buildings called open schools, the use of space is even more flexible. Areas within the buildings can be readily expanded for program changes, and used for many kinds of functions. One should remember, though, the physical layout (布局) of a school cannot decide whether it has the conservative or liberal teaching practices. What determines whether the classroom is liberal or conservative is the spirit and attitude of the teacher. The word “carrel” in Paragraph 3 most probably refers to ________.
A、a room with folding walls
B、a room with liberal instructions
C、a room with conservative instructions
D、a room with small space
