听力原文： Colds have always been a nuisance, and people have tried many strange ways to cure them, However, none have worked. one Roman historian even recommended kissing the nose of a hairy mouse (29) ! But up till now we are only a little closer to finding a cure for it.
Scientists have discovered that a cold is not caused by a single virus, but by many. They have proved that people under stress are more likely to catch colds, although why this happens is still unknown (30) . Experiments also showed that women suffer more colds than men. But again, scientists are unable to explain why this is so.
Another experiment proved that getting cold does not cause colds. For this experiment, one group of human volunteers were showered with water and then made to stand in a windy corridor. Another group remained dry and inside a heated room. While you might expect people in the first group to catch colds more easily, they didn't.
one other thing that we now know is that colds are spread by water vapor from breath. This would explain why colds are more common in the winter than at other times: people spend more time indoors closer to other people, and also away from flesh air (31) .
(30)
A．Keeping warm and dry.
B．Drinking a lot of liquid.
C．Living close to the hospital.
D．Kissing the nose of an animal.
As the English are such a mixed people, local customs and accents in England vary a great deal and local pride. is still strong in some parts of the country. Both Leonard Townsend and Herbert Perkins al- ways think of themselves as Northerners, although they have moved to the south. Leonard is as proud of being a Yorkshire man as Iran Macdonald is of being a Scot (苏格兰人).
The closer one gets to London, the less one notices such differences, for London is a melting-pot. People from all over Britain and from all over the world pour into the giant city. London tends to ' melt down' and smooth out strong accents and local customs. Every year the influence of London spreads fur-her and further into the country, north, south, east and west, but particularly into the south and south- east. In an effort to stop London from spreading any more, new overspill towns are being built forty to filly miles outside London. London from are encouraged to move to a new town, or at least to open new branches there instead of in another part of London. This policy is now beginning to have results. Until recently the greater London region had a population of twelve million, but this figure is starting to drop.
Which of the following is NOT the meaning of the sentence "Since 1066 the blood ... "in Para. 1？

B．Many foreigners have died and been buried in England.
C．Foreign people have immigrated into England.
D．People from other countries have become Englishmen.
Therefore, they are continually discontented. By their remarks, they sour the pleasures of society, offend many people, and make themselves disagreeable everywhere. If this turn of mind were founded in nature, such unhappy persons would be the more to be critical. The tendency to criticize and be disgusted is perhaps taken up originally by imitation. It grows into a habit, unknown to its possessors. The habit may be strong, but it may be cured when those who have it are convinced of its bad effects on their interests and tastes. I hope this little warning may be of service to them, and help change this habit.
Although in fact it is chiefly an act of the imagination, it has serious consequences in life, since it brings on deep sorrow and had luck. Those people offend many others, nobody loves them, and no one treats them with more than the most common politeness and respect, and scarcely that. This frequently puts them in bad temper and draws them into arguments. If they aim at obtaining some advantage in rank or fortune, nobody wishes them success. Nor will anyone stir a step or speak a word to favor their hopes. If they bring on themselves public disapproval, no one will defend or excuse them, and many will join to criticize their misconduct. These people should change this bad habit and condescend (俯就) to be pleased with what is pleasing, without worrying needlessly about themselves and others. If they do not, it will be good for others to avoid any contact with them. Otherwise, it can be disagreeable and sometimes very inconvenient, especially when one becomes mixed up in their quarrels.
People who are to be unhappy ______.
A．always consider things differently from others
B．usually are influenced by the results of certain things
C．can discover the unpleasant part of certain things
D．usually have a fault-finding habit

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.
