听力原文： At a certain time in our lives we consider every place as the possible sites for a house. I have thus searched the country within a dozen miles of where I live. In imagination I have bought all the farms, one after another, and I knew their prices.

The nearest thing that I came to actual ownership was when I bought the Hollowell place. But before the owner completed the sale with me, his wife changed her mind and wished to keep it, and he offered me additional dollars to return the farm to him. However, I let him keep the additional dollars and sold him the farm for just what I gave for it.

The real attraction of the Hollowell farm to me was its position, being about two miles from the village, half a mile from the nearest neighbor, bounded on one side by the river, and separated from the highway by a wide field. The poor condition of the house and fences showed that it hadn't been used for some time. I remembered from my earliest trip up the river that the house used to be hidden behind a forest area, and I was in a hurry to buy it before the owner finished getting out some rocks, cutting down the apple trees, and clearing away some young trees which had grown up in the fields. I wanted to buy it before he made any more of his improvements. But it turned out as I have said.

I was not really troubled by the loss. I had always had a garden, but I don't think I was ready for a large farm. I believe that as long as possible it is better to live free and uncommitted. It makes but little difference whether you own a farm or not.

Questions 26 to 29 are based on the passage you have just heard.

26. What do we know about the speaker？

27. Why did the speaker decide to buy the Hollowell place？

28. Why did the speaker want to buy the farm in a hurry？

29. What does the speaker believe as important in life？

(33)

A．He made money by buying and selling farms.

B．He made a study of many farms before buying.

C．He had the money to buy the best farm in the country.

D．He wanted to buy the oldest farm near where he lived.

听力原文：For all its benefits, television's influence has been extremely harmful to the yo

听力原文： For all its benefits, television's influence has been extremely harmful to the young. Children do not have enough experience to realize that TV shows present an unreal world; that commercials lie in order to sell products that are sometimes bad or useless. They believe and want to imitate what they see. They do believe that they will make more friends if they use a certain soap, or some other product. By the time they are out of high school, most young people have watched about 15,000 hours of television, and have seen about 18,000 killings or other acts of violence. How could they be choked to see the same in real life？ All educators and psychologists agree that they "television generations" are more violent than their parents and grandparents. It is certain that television has deeply transformed our lives and our society. It is certain that, along with its benefits, it has brought enormous problems. To those problems we must soon find a solution because—whether we like it or not—television is here to stay.

(33)

A．Television's bad effects on the young.

B．Television's bad effects on society in general.

C．The history of television.

D．The good sides of television.

听力原文：Why do so many people live to a healthy old age in certain parts of the world？ [3

听力原文： Why do so many people live to a healthy old age in certain parts of the world？ [31] What is the secret of their long lives？ Three things seem to be very important: [29] fresh air, fresh food and a simple way of life. People work near their homes in the clean, mountain air instead of traveling long distances to work by car, bus or train. They do not sit all day in busy offices or factories, but work hard outdoors in the fields. They take more exercise and eat less food than people in the cities of the West. For years the Hunzas of the Himalayas did not need policemen, lawyers or doctors. There was no crime, no divorce and not much illness in their society. [30] They were a happy, peaceful people, famous all over India for their long, healthy lives.

(30)

A．Clean air, much food and more exercise.

B．Clean air, fresh food and less exercise.

C．Clean air, fresh food and simple life.
