听力原文:W: Hi, John. How was your vacation?
M: Great! I went to New York.
W: Really? Why did you decide to go there?
M: Well, I went there on business. I also have a friend who lives there. She's been trying to show me around the city for a long time. She talked me into it.
W: What impressed you most during your visit?
M: The beauty there is really incredible, especially the skyscrapers. The food is also very impressive. And I love the shopping environment there.
W: How was the weather when you were there?
M: That's about the only thing I didn't enjoy. It was really hot. In fact, I was almost out of breath when I was under the sun.
W: Did you go to some other places beside the city?
M: Sure. I went to the Yellow Stone National Park. It's a famous place, really attractive. There's plenty to enjoy: green trees, blue sky, clear water etc.
W: Well, it sure sounds like you had a great time.
M: Oh, I sure did. And I plan to go back there next year. I'd like to visit Hawaii. It's world-famous as a seaside resort.

"New York City is not America. " That's what American friends are sure to you when you ar-
rive. "You must see Boston, visit Niagara Falls, go to Virgirua, fly down to Florida, and so on;
but first, of course, you will want to see New York. It is not the capital city of the United States
(that is Washington, D. C. , where the President lives) or even the capital city of New York State
(that is Albany) , but many people call it ' the greatest city on earth'. "
The five parts, or boroughs, of New York City are Manhattan, Queen, Bronz, Richmond and
Brooklyn. Although Manhattan is not all of New York, it is the heart of the city. It is an island,
which is only about 13 miles long and 2 miles wide. From the air its shape looks like a long finger, and from the sea it's just like the picture we all know. Those tall, straight buildings-the skyscrap-ers-packed so close together on that island of rock are sometimes seen-in the distance through a veil of early morning mist. You have imagined it so often that now it's difficult to believe this beautiful sight is real, and unless your heart is as hard as stone, excitement will make it beat a little faster. Perhaps "greatest" , "tallest" , "longest" , "biggest" , "brightest" , are words you will find most often in the city guide books.

Changes in Museums
Museums have changed. They are no longer places that one "should" visit, they are places to enjoy and learn.
At a science museum in Ontario, Canada, you can feel your hair stand on end as harmless electricity passes through your body. At the Metropolitan (大城市的) Museum of Art in New York City, you can look at the seventeenth century instruments while listening to their music. At New York's American Museum of Natural History recently, you can help make a bone-by- bone reproduction of the museum's dinosaur(恐龙), a beast that lived 200 million years ago.
More and more museum directors are realizing that people learn best when they can somehow become part of what they are seeing. In many science museums, for example, there are no guided tours. The visitor is encouraged to touch, listen, operate, and experiment so as to discover scientific principles for himself. The purpose is not only to provide fun but also to help people feel at home in the world of science. The theory is that people who do not understand science will probably fear it, and those who fear science will not use it to best advantage.
One cause of all these changes is the increase in wealth and leisure time. Another cause is the rising percentage of young people in the population. Many of these young people are college students or college graduates. Leon F. Twiggs, a young black professor of art once said, "They see things in a new and different way. They are not satisfied to stand and look at works of art; they want art they can participate(参加) in. "The same is true of science and history.
When visiting museums nowadays, people can take part in many activities.
A.Right
B.Wrong
C.Not mentioned

听力原文: You say you have a two-week summer holiday and want to travel a lot and visit as many new places as possible. I don’t think it’s a good idea. I' ll tell you a story about my friend Mr. Bell. Last July he was in Europe. Europe is very beautiful, but his holiday wasn't very nice. He visited four countries, and was in each of the countries only three days. He visited a great many museums and famous palaces, and was always in a hurry. Bell was on the train or on a bus almost every day. When he returned from Europe, he was very tired. So I suggest that you spend your holiday in a different way. Better to travel with a friend to one country, and visit only one city. Choose a city on the coast and you'll be able to have a good rest on the seaside.
How many countries did Mr. Bell visit last summer?
A.Only one.
B.Three.
C.Four.
