听力原文：Teams of teachers and school administrators from at least fourteen American citie

听力原文： Teams of teachers and school administrators from at least fourteen American cities are at a conference in Washington. The American Federation of Teachers, a labor union, holds the Quest conference every two years.

This year, one of the subjects is a tutoring program that provides extra help to students in Rochester, New York. The Rochester City School District was one of five in the nation recognized by the Bush administration for their tutoring programs. Tutoring is big business in the United States these days. There are private learning centers where parents can take their children after school. Test preparation companies are also doing well. One reason for all this tutoring is the growing competition for places at top universities. Another influence is the Bush administration’s federal education law, called No Child Left Behind. The law requires services like free tutoring for poor students at schools that fail to meet educational goals for three years. There is federal money to pay the tutors. But the No Child Left Behind law does not say who must do the tutoring. It can be a private company or local teachers. The law does say, however, that the provider must have shown a record of effectiveness in helping students learn. In Rochester, the tutoring is provided by a teachers union, the Rochester Teachers’ Association. The program began in the spring of 2003 with 47 students and 15 tutors.

A．The Washington Federation of Teachers.

B．The National Labor Union.

C．The American Federation of Teachers.

D．The Washington Labor Union.

听力原文：If you judge by the number of people who go to see the games and by the number of

听力原文： If you judge by the number of people who go to see the games and by the number of those who actually play it, basketball is probably the most popular sport in the United States. It is mainly an in- door game, and the season extends from late autumn, through the winter, to early spring. There are many professional teams, but for the most parts basketball is a school sport. There is hardly a high school or college in the country that does 'not have its team and its loyal following of fans.

In spring and summer, the most popular sport is baseball. During the warm weather you can see young men and boys playing this game in any part of the country. Radio and television bring the details of the big games to every comer of the land, and the activities of the professional teams are a topic of conversation for Americans everywhere.

In the autumn, the most popular sport is football. As you know, this is not the same kind of game that is so popular in other parts of the world. Like basketball and baseball, it is typically American, and those who have never seen it before have difficulty seeing any sense in it. But for most of the viewers the game itself is not so important as the music, the cheering; and the cheerful spirit that go with it. On a cool bright autumn afternoon, there is nothing so colorful and exciting as a football game.

(33)

A．Judging by the numbers of the players.

B．Judging by the numbers of the watchers.

C．Neither of them.

D．Both A and B.

听力原文： Some people argue that the pressure on international sportsmen and sportswomen kills the essence of sport -- the pursuit of personal excellence. Children kick a football around for fun. When they get older and play for local school teams, they become competitive but they still enjoy playing. The individual representing his country cannot afford to think about enjoying himself. He has to think only about winning. He is responsible for an entire nation's hopes, dreams and reputation.

A good example is the football World Cup. Football is the world's most important sport. Winning the World Cup is perhaps the summit of international sporting success. Mention "Brazil" to someone and the chances are that he'll think of football. In a sense, winning the World Cup "put Brazil on the map".

Sports fans and supporters get quite irrational about the World Cup. People in England felt that their country was somehow important after they won in 1966. Last year thousands of Scots sold their cars, and even their houses, and spent all their money traveling to Brazil, who won the cup.

(30)

A．Children can have fun from it.

B．People can achieve personal excellence from it.

C．The winner will be greatly honored.

D．It can realize the dreams of an entire nation.

听力原文： There are two main kinds of sports. The two kinds of sports are team sports and individual sports. Team sports are such sports as baseball, basketball and volleyball. Team sports require two separate teams. The teams play against each other. They compete against each other in order to get the best score. For example, in a football game if Team A gets seven points and Team B gets three points, Team A wins the game. Team sports are sometimes called competitive sports. The second type is individual sports. In individual sports there are no teams. There isn't any competition.

People play individual sports in order to get exercise. They don't play individual sports for the competition. Generally they want to get some exercise not to win a game. Individual sports are such sports as swimming, skiing and running. Of course it is possible to compete in individual sports. It is possible to keep a score in individual sports. The main difference, however, between team sports and individual sports is that individual sports can be performed alone. Team sports always require more than one person.

(23)

A．They play against each other in order to get the best score.

B．They want to get some exercises.

C．They want to win a prize.

D．They want to keep a score.

听力原文：Social life in America varies tremendously from office to office. Big corporation

听力原文： Social life in America varies tremendously from office to office. Big corporations may have dubs, sports teams, trips, dance classes, or other employee activities which you can join or not as you like, while small companies usually can' t afford these activities.

In general, people go to lunch with each other by invitation when they fed like it. Usually people of higher ranks would invite those of lower ranks rather than the other way around, but lines are not closely drawn. Except for special occasions, everyone pays for himself or herself regardless of whether or not an invitation is offered.

It is quite acceptable for men and women colleagues, single or married, to go out together for lunch. This may be the extent to which your office friends will invite you. Although in general Americans readily take people home with them, they often do not want to mix business and social life. If this is the case in your place of work, you will have to seek your friendships through other channels.

(30)

A．Employees in big corporations enjoy more activities.

B．Employees in small companies enjoy more activities.

C．Employees in big corporations make more friends.

D．Employees in small companies go lunch together more often.
