听力原文: Helen was a very successful businesswoman. She had always liked nice clothes. (33)And when she had left school she worked in a shop which sold them, not far from her home. After a few experiments she showed that she was very successful at designing the sorts of things that women want to buy, so after a few years the owner of the shop, who was an old lady, offered to make her a partner. "It's something I should have done long ago," she told Helen with a smile. Helen was very pleased, of course, (34)and when the old lady retired, Helen bought her share and became the sole owner of the shop. Now she had her independence. Ever since she had started in the shop she had have to travel around to see what attractive things her rivals in the clothes trade were producing, to attend fashion shows and so oil. She had always stayed at small cheap hotels, because she dared not to spend too much money when she was saving up to buy a shop of her own. But when she at last became the owner of the shop, and it was making good profits, she found that she had plenty of money, and she felt she should now stay in the best hotels whenever she traveled. (35)"Then the people who buy good clothes can see that your business is successful," she said to herself, "and therefore more of them think they should buy the clothes you make."

听力原文:M: I like your new bicycle, Helen.
W: Thanks, but it isn't new. I had my old one painted again.
Q: What can be said about Helen's bicycle?
(1)
A.It's brand new.
B.She just repaired it.
C.Someone painted it.
D.It's a new one.
M: No, certainly not. Nor shall we name her after eleven hockey players if she's a girl.
W: But choosing even one name is difficult. Which names have you thought of?
M: Helen wants to call the child John after me. I don't want to. My name is too plain.
W: And if a girl comes, you won't like plain Jane any better. What about Jonathan or Janet?
M: Every Jonathan I know is called Jon for short, so that's no good. Helen's an opera-lover. So we might call a daughter Carmen.
W: You could name a boy after a poet. How would you like to know someone called Dante Brown, Shakespeare Robinson or Keats Thompson?
M: Those names are old-fashioned. But up-to-date names can be worse. Some people call their children after film stars or pop stars. How dreadful to be christened Clint, Elvis, Rod or Ringo!
W: Lots of children hate the names they have been given. Why not give a child a number instead? Then he can exchange his number for a name of his own choice when he is old enough to decide himself what he would like to be called.
What is the conversation mainly about?
A.Choosing names for children.
B.Family names.
C.Up-to-date names.
D.Names of famous writers.

B.In contrast, children on the Pacific island of Tonga, studied by Helen Morton, are regularly beaten by their parents and older siblings.They are seen as being closer to mad people than adults because they lack the highly prized quality of social competence (or poto as the Tongans call it).
C.Today, a four year old who can tie his or her shoes is impressive.In colonial times, four-year-old girls knitted stockings and mittens and could produce intricate embroidery: At age six they spun wool.
D.While Westerners might take exception to eight-year-old girls working or to 12-year-old girls marrying, within their own communities such activities are seen as a normal and positive part of childhood.
We can learn from the first paragraph that______.
A.it is impossible for people to find high-tech robots in a simple wooden house

听力原文:M: Hi, Helen, I've been looking for you!
W: Really? Such a coincidence. I am also looking for you.
M: You don't know how difficult it is to find a car I want.
W: Have you been to the second-hand market?
M: Yes, but... didn't you tell me that when cars get older they get cheaper?
W: Sure! What happened?
M: I called in response to an ad yesterday for a very old car. It was priced somewhere over $10,000! Do you think I can get anything for $3,500?
W: Sure. I just heard about something I've wanted to talk to you about.
M: Oh, that's why you are looking for me, isn't it?
W: Yeah. My uncle's mother-in-law is 86 now, and recently her eyesight became very bad. That means she can't drive anymore, but she's got a 1978 Buick Century that would be perfect for you. M: Is it still good? How much do you think she wants?
W: It's really very good — only 43,000 miles on it. There's no rust on it, and the interior is like new. But there is certainly something wrong with it: it needs a tune-up, a new set of tires and if you buy it you'd better put all new hoses and ignition wires on it. They crack when they get old.
M: Anything else?
W: Maybe in about 10,000 miles the brakes would need attention.
M: That sounds like quite a bit of expense already!
W: But look, everything it needs will probably cost $500 or less. You could buy it for $2,150, I'm sure. So for a lot less than the $3,500 or so, you'd have a really good car that would last for years. M: It sounds better when you put it that way. When can I see it?
W: How about right now?
M: All right. Let's go.
