听力原文：W: What are you laughing about？
M: I just saw the serious advertisement on TV for Germen soups. It's said our products are home-made with the freshest vegetables and fruits. Then a scene in the factory showed that products were prepared and packed by the most sophisticated machinery. W: And I am sure that the word NATURE was put on the jars and cans of the products. I think the stupidest advertisements are those that imply that you are one of a kind. If you buy the product, you will be a very special person. Now you will be just like every other one of the 20 billion people who bought it.
M: That's really silly. But to me, the dullest of them all is when advertisers put a celebrity on TV to talk about a particular brand of soap or about a particular car. I bet that the celebrity's never used the product before they got the job of appearing in the commercial.
W: Yeah! But most of these commercials work and people remember the product.
M: I agree, here we are talking about ads we've seen, aren't we？ We are all influenced by those celebrities and brand names.
W: I think teenagers are specially vulnerable. Advertisers try to get teenagers used to a brand because they know that in later years, the teenagers will stick to that particular product of theirs.

Questions 22～25:
Younger people and older people do not always agree with each other. They sometimes have different ideas about life, work and play. But in one special program in New York State, adults and teenagers live together in peace. Each summer, 200 teenagers and 50 adults live together for eight weeks as members of a special work group. Everyone works several hours each day. The aim is not only to keep busy but to find meaning and enjoyment in work. Some teenagers work in the woods or on the farms near the village. Some learn to make furniture and to build houses. The adults teach them these skills.
There are several free hours every day. And people are free on weekends, too. During the free hours some teenagers learn photography or painting. Others sit around talking or singing. Each teenager has his own way to spend the free time.
It is necessary to make rules when people live together. In this program the teenagers and the adults make the rules together. When someone breaks the rule, the group will discuss the problem. They will ask "Why did it happen？", "What should we do about it？"
After the program, one of the teenagers told us that, "You stop thinking only about yourself. You begin to think about the whole group. That's what I've learnt from this program. "
Questions 11～13 are based on the following dialogue between two passengers.

[A] Cold.
[B] Very hot.
[C] Cooler than that day.
[D] Drier than that day.

W: So how did he get into acting？
M: Well, first he acted in plays at high school, then he went to college in California where he got seriously into acting. In 1951 he moved to New York to do more stage acting.
W: Then when did his movie career really start？
M: 1955. His first starring role was in East of Eden. It was fabulous. Dean became a huge success. But the movie that really made him famous was his second one—Rebel without a Cause, that was about teenagers who felt like they didn't fit into society.
W: So how many more movies did he make？
M: Just one more, then he died in that car crash in California in 1955.
W: What a tragedy! He only made three movies! So what made him the legend he still is today？

听力原文：W: Is there such a thing as a typical shoplifter？
M: Uh, not really... But there are certain types most shoplifters fall into. Three types, I would say.
W: Tell me more about these three types.
M: Well... uh... people in the first type are what I call "the sudden impulse type". Doctors and psychologists call such people kleptomaniacs. They see something and just can't ... uh... help stealing it. The strange thing about this first type is that the people in it are often well off and could easily afford to buy the thing. Sometimes they don't even need it... and often they're emotionally disturbed in some way.., middle-aged women, for example, whose husbands have left them, or perhaps older men whose wives have recently died.
W: What about the second type？
M: Well, those are people who are really... "little thieves" They work alone, and know exactly what they want before they go into the store. These days a lot of them, but by no means all, are teenagers who steal things they can't afford. Leather jackets, watches, expensive cosmetics, things like that.
W: And the third type.'？ What kind of people do you find in the third type？
M: Ah, yes, they're what I call "the experts".
W: Why？
M: Well, first of all, because they're highly organized. And secondly because they do it for a living. They usually operate in groups of three or sometimes four, and they're extremely difficult to catch.
W: Can they make a lot of money that way？
M: Oh, yes. They're very well off, believe me... much better off than a store detective..., or even a journalist!
How many kinds of shoplifters are mentioned in the dialogue？
A．2
B．3
C．4
D．5
听力原文：M: Good morning. Can I help you？
W: Good Morning. We'd like to book a holiday for July, please.
M: Certainly. Where did you have in mind？
W: Oh, well, we haven't thought a lot about it, really. We'd just like to go somewhere hot, you know, and it must be in July.
M: I see. Well, let's get the dates cleared up first, then we can see about destinations. What part of July were you thinking of？
W: Oh, you see, my husband and I have slightly different holidays. I've got the whole month except for the last five days, so I could go from the first to the twenty-sixth, but my husband doesn't start until the seventh, so I suppose it will have to be the middle two weeks really.
M: Ok. Now, let's find a destination. Any preferences...France...Italy...？
W: Oh, not France, we went there last year and it was absolutely packed with teenagers making noise and getting drunk all the time. We definitely want somewhere quieter this year.
M: Well, of course it depends more on the resort rather than the country. There are resorts in every country which are good for the family or the slightly older person. They are usually a shade more expensive, though, as you might expect...
W: We don't mind paying a bit more if it means more peace and quiet, do we？
M: All right. How about Portugal？
W: Oh, that sounds great. We've never been there!
(23)
A．Because she will have the hottest weather then.

C．Because Portugal is the most beautiful then.
