听力原文：Today it is perfectly natural for us to shake hands when we greet someone, or say

goodbye. But like so many other things we do without thinking such actions at one time probably symbolized something else.

For example, in primitive life the hand was probably a symbol of power and strength. The hand was used to fight enemies, kill animals and make spears and implements. So when the hand was extended to someone, it could have represented good will, since it showed that the person was not armed or ready to fight.

We know that the hand was an important symbol in early religion, probably as a mark of power. The Greeks prayed to their gods with raised hands. Presenting hands palm to palm was at one time the way an inferior person paid respect to a superior.

Among the Arabs, it was customary at one time to kiss the hand of a superior. Later on, polite Arabs began to resist the efforts of people to kiss their hands, and some- times they would end up clasping hands as each tried to prevent the other from showing this mark of "inferiority".

The early Greeks held out the right hand when they wished to indicate friendship to a stranger. The hand and what was done with it have been full of meaning to people down through the ages. And while we shake hands, we are really carrying on a custom that has been handed down to us from ancient times.

(33)

A．Unfriendliness.

B．Generosity.

C．Friendship.

D．Strength.

听力原文：A silver dollar is not worth a dollar--nor is any other silver coin really worth

听力原文： A silver dollar is not worth a dollar--nor is any other silver coin really worth its face value. Silver coins are made of an alloy--a mixture of 10 per cent copper and 90 per cent silver---which lasts much longer in circulation than pure silver would. A silver dollar contains 90 cents worth of silver and a dime has 9 cents worth. It takes only a pennyworth of silver to make a nickel.

This was not the case in 1792, when the United States began minting coins of pure gold and silver. Citizens were welcome to stop in anytime with gold or silver in any form--cups, vases, or even gold fillings from their teeth--and have it melted down for spending money.

Today the mints in Philadelphia and Denver earn a yearly profit of about ＄40 million. Most of this comes from using alloys rather than pure silver in the production of the ＄2.5 billion worth of coins circulating in the United States. The Philadelphia plant also manufactures coins for foreign countries. In a recent year almost 130 million coins were made for the use of foreign governments.

(33)

A．Because their value has been raised since they were made.

B．Because they contain more silver than they used to.

C．Because they contain less silver than they should do.

D．Because the metal wears down in use.

听力原文： Inequality of health care is still paramount, says the WHO's latest report. Indt

tstrialized countries account for less than 20 percent of the world' s population but take 90 percent of health spending. In Japan more than five hundred dollars is spent on drugs per person per year. This compares to just three dollars in Sierra Leone. Only slightly more is spent in many sub-Saharan countries. Over the last fifty years, life expectancy has in- creased globally from forty six years to sixty five. But today, instead of the gap being between the developed and developing countries, it's now biggest between the very poorest nations and all other countries. The bur- den of infectious diseases, including HIV, as well as chronic conditions, coupled with a lack of health care, has led to this situation. However, it's children who are most affected. Almost fifty seven million people died in 2002, nearly twenty percent children of less than 5 years of age, and ninety eight percent of these deaths occurred in developing countries.

Developed countries take ______ of the world's health expense.

A．20 %

B．00%

C．5%

D．98%

听力原文：Until the twentieth century cigarettes were not an important threat to public hea

听力原文： Until the twentieth century cigarettes were not an important threat to public health. Since the cigarette industry began in the 1870s, however, cigarette manufacturing machines have developed rapidly. This made it possible to produce great numbers of cigarettes very quickly, and it reduced the price.

Today cigarette smoking is a widespread habit. About forty-three percent of the men and thirty-one percent of the adult women in the United States smoke cigarettes regularly. It is encouraging to note, however, that millions of people have given up the smoking habit.

Income, education, and occupation all play a part in determining a person's smoking habits. City people smoke more than people living on farms. Well-educated men with high income are less likely to smoke cigarettes than men with fewer years of schooling and lower income. On the other hand, if a well-educated man with a high income smokes at all, he is likely to smoke more packs of cigarettes per day. The situation is somewhat different for women. There are slightly more smokers among women with higher family income and higher education than among the lower income and lower educational groups. These more highly educated women tend to smoke more heavily.

(33)

A．The great numbers of people engaged in cigarette producing.

B．The rapid development of cigarette-making machine.

C．The rapid development of cigarette-making factories.

D．The increasing output of tobacco.

听力原文： A key point in the discussion of illegal immigration （and legal immigration, for

听力原文： A key point in the discussion of illegal immigration (and legal immigration, for that matter) is that many of those who are vehemently opposed to illegal immigration are also opposed to large amounts of legal immigration as well. These thinly hidden agendas mean that often the debate on illegal immigration cannot be separated from the debate on legal immigration.

Americans firmly believe' in tough laws against illegal immigrants and 70% of Americans want no more than 300,000 legal immigrants to enter the U. S. per year. In fact, 20% of Americans want immigration completely stopped. Taking these numbers as the truth, it is clear that America thinks that we have too many immigrants.

Such a dislike of immigration is interesting considering the success of past immigration. Many people would say that today's immigrants are somehow different than those of the past. However, the truth is that the similarities between the immigrants of today and those of the past are numerous. Their reasons for coming to this country are often similar.

When illegal immigration is not confused with legal immigration, debate can take place in a sane manner. Outlandish solutions like building a huge 2,000 mile-long fence and gathering a virtual army to defend the border from Mexicans are not the answer. Making legal immigration easier and more common is the best solution that we have now.

What is the most difficult part in the issue of illegal immigration, according to the passage you have just heard？

A．Legalizing all immigration, whether it is legal or illegal.

B．Dealing with the legal and illegal immigrations respectively.

C．Building a long fence along the long border near Mexico.

D．Making the legal immigration easier and more common.

听力原文：In all economic systems today, most businesses of any size rely on one system of

听力原文： In all economic systems today, most businesses of any size rely on one system of organization: the division of labor. This means that the workers are specialized. Each worker has a particular duty to perform. as one part of the whole operation.

A good example of the division of labor is an assembly line in an automobile factory. One worker may install a door while another adds lights. Normally, workers stay in one place, and a conveyor belt moves the product to them. If one worker had the responsibility of producing an entire car, he or she might be able to complete one each year. By comparison, factories with assembly lines may produce an average of about thirty-five cars a years per worker.

The division of labor permits mass production, but it does have some disadvantages. For one thing, few people know or understand all aspects of an operation, In addition, mass production may be more efficient, but many workers complain that they get little job satisfaction from working on one small duty, day after day, To them, there is much more satisfaction in doing a job from beginning to end.

(33)

A．The division of labor means that workers are general.

B．The division of labor means that workers are specialized.

C．The division of labor means that each worker is in charge of the whole operation.

D．The division of labor means each worker has to be an expert in one area.

听力原文：The word "motel" means motorist hotel and is used chiefly by people traveling by

听力原文： The word "motel" means motorist hotel and is used chiefly by people traveling by car. Parking space is always available. Motels are usually located outside the center of town near major roads and are less expensive than hotels. Rates in motels are about $10 to $15 per person a day for a room and bath. Motels in and near large cities tend to be more expensive than this, in smaller towns the prices may be lower. Because motels are often located outside the center of the town, it will probably be inconvenient to stay in a motel unless you have a car or unless the motel is located near public bus or train lines. (29) Although reservations in advance are usually required in motels in busy areas, this is not always the case in less crowded parts of the country. Because of their convenience and economical prices, it is easy to understand why they are so popular with Americans.

During the early part of this century, most cities and small towns had a great number of "guest houses". These were large private homes with rooms that could be rented to visiting travelers. (30) Guest houses were warm and friendly places where you often could have a home-cooked meal as well as a clean room and bath. Today, unfortunately, few guest houses remain. They have been replaced by motels, (31) which offer the traveler modern conveniences such as television in the rooms and frequently the use of a swimming pool.

29. What do people need to do to live in the motels in busy areas？

30.Which is the characteristic of the guest houses？

31.Why don't the "guest houses" exist today？

(30)

A．They need to cost more money.

B．They need to drive there by cars.

C．They usually need to spend about $10 to $15 a day.

D．They usually need to reserve in advance.
