听力原文: A newspaper reports Saudi Arabia's Crown Prince Abdullah has canceled a visit to

Canada over criticism for the alleged mistreatment of a Canadian citizen detained in a Saudi prison.

Saudi Arabia's Al-Riyadh newspaper quotes Saudi officials as saying the trip has been called off because of what they call "unacceptable interference" by Canadian officials and some of Canada's newspapers.

The dispute is over 43-year-old William Sampson, who is being held in Saudi Arabia in connection with two bomb explosions in November. The blasts killed a British citizen and injured several other people in the capital, Riyadh. Mr. Sampson could face the death penalty if found guilty of murder.

Canada's National Post newspaper recently quoted a close friend of the prisoner as saying Mr. Sampson had been taken to a hospital on May 17 with a crushed vertebra, foot injuries and scratched wrists. Saudi officials have said the injuries were the result of a suicide attempt.

The Canadian government rejected the torture allegations after receiving a report from its ambassador who visited Mr. Sampson with a European doctor in a hospital on Monday.

What crime is William Sampson charged with?

A.Bombing.

B.Arson.

C.Rape.

D.Burglary.

听力原文:W: Hi, Tom. What are you reading?

M: Oh, hi, Tanya. This is a newspaper, the Community News. It carries only good news.

W: Oh, yeah. I think I've seen that.

M: Yeah, isn't it a great idea? I'm so fed up with all the bad news you read about all the time. It's about time someone offers some creative choice to the mainstream newspapers.

W: I don't know.., the problem with it is, if it's only good news, how do you know you're getting the whole story, and not just sugar-coated truth? It doesn't sound like objective journalism — that both sides of a story and all facts are being reported.

What kind of newspaper is the Community News?

A.It's a new newspaper.

B.It reports only bad news.

C.It reports only good news.

听力原文:M: So you're going to be writing for the school newspaper?

W: Yes, I'm excited about it. I'm thinking about journalism as a career.

M: Oh! Congratulations! How do they decide whom to hire?

W: I have to send the writing sample. I used one of the essays I've written for the literature class, then the editor assigned me a topic to write a short article about it.

M: What did you write about?

W: Actually, it was a lot of fun. I wrote about the students' play that has been performing this month.

M: Oh, I saw that play. The director is a friend of mine. It really caused a stir around here.

W: Yeah, I know. That's what I wrote about—People's reaction to it. It's really interesting.

M: Have you finished the article? Can I read it?

W: Sure. I just made a couple of copies. So you can have one.

M: Thanks. I wish I were a better writer. Working for the paper sounds like lots of fun.

W: Well, they're looking to add one or two photographers to the staff.

M: You're kidding! Maybe I'll go over and apply.

W: If you want, we could walk over to the newspaper office and I'll introduce you to the photography editor and some of the other photographers.

M: That will be terrific! But can we go tomorrow? I have to go to math class now. And if we go tomorrow, then I'll have time tonight to gather a portfolio of photographs to show them.

M: sure. Or maybe you should call and set up a time to meet tomorrow.

M: Good idea. I'll do that before I go to class.

W: All right. See you tomorrow.

A.A class assignment.

B.A journalism class.

听力原文:M: So, you're an architect.

W: Yes.

M: Do you work for a public or a private organization, or you're self-employed, that is working on you own?

W: I'm working for a private designing construction company.

M: How did you start your career?

W: I started it with the government.

M: Oh, did you? What made you decide to work for the government?

W: Well, it was a matter of chances, really. I saw an advertisement for a vacant position in the newspaper and I thought "why don't you try it". In fact, I have no preferences where I work, public or private.

M: And do you still have this idea, or...

W: More or less, yes. Although I'm now working with a private firm, I worked for the government for about three years. It was all right. Of course, there is the bureaucracy that one has to put up with but that's no that had. If you don't mind bureaucratic wheels turning slowly and things not being as efficient.

M: Mm, ha, and what made you leave the public sector?

W:Money mainly. You see, I got married, and my husband doesn't work, and we wanted to start a family right away. So we thought it might be better if I moved to the private sector. This is why it's hard for me to be self-employed, because self-employed work has a disadvantage that there may be time or a period of time when you are unemployed.

A.A newspaper.

B.The government.

C.A construction firm

听力原文:M: Hello, John Adams speaking.

W: Good morning, Mr. Adams. I saw your advertisement in the local newspaper for a waitress and I wonder if you could give me a few more details about the job.

M: Yes, certainly. We would need you from ten in the morning until two in the afternoon, roughly. We're offering about $450 a week. Obviously there may be a little bit more if you have the right qualifications and experience. Have you had any experience?

W: Well, yes, I have. I'm at present working for and have been working for the same firm for about five years, for a small firm of consultant engineers.

M: Well, that sounds good. Perhaps you could come down for an interview sometime.

W: Yes. When would be suitable for you?

M: What about next Wednesday at about 2:30?

W: Yes, I think that would be fine, actually. That's OK.

M: Could you just tell me who you're working for at the moment?

W: I'm working for Bloggses actually in the High Street.

M: Right, OK. And could I just have your name?

W: Yes. My surname is Boardman.

M: Right, OK. Miss Boardman, well, see you then next Wednesday at 2:30.

W: OK. Thanks very much then. Bye.

听力原文:W: I think there should be greater restrictions placed on the press and the stori
es they print. I can't open a newspaper or magazine without reading stories full of false information about myself or people I know. It's get ting...

M: Sorry, but I can't believe that you're actually complaining about free publicity. I mean I remember, Shelley, before you were famous, you were begging us to write features about you...anything...

W: If you would just let me finish of course the press have been important. I'm an actress and I understand the power of the press. But the thing is, I rarely seem to read anything true about myself these days... The point I'm trying to make here is that famous people have families with feelings.

M: Oh, sorry. You're really hurt by that particular article last week.

W: To increase circulation and make more money, certain newspapers continue to print those stories when it's obvious that they're not true.

M: But I think we have to consider the relationship between fame, the public and the press. The public are fascinated by fame and scandal, and they love to read about their favorite stars.

W: I'm sick of gutter-press making up stories. It's irresponsible and it messes up people's life.

M: The problem is, it's not always clear what's true and what isn't. I mean, if a newspaper prints something scandalous or embarrassing about a famous person, they're bound to deny it, but that doesn't mean it's not true.

W: Are you trying to say...

M: No smoke without fire, if you ask me.

(20)

A.A little known actress and a literary critic.

B.A well-known actress and a newspaper editor.

C.A movie star and one of her fans.

听力原文:W: I often read two newspapers. Washington Post and The Sun. What about you?

M: I will buy the newspaper whose headlines catch my eyes in the front page. Do you buy the two newspapers everyday?

W: Yes, that way I'm sure not to miss any of my favorite sections. Doesn't the size of tile daily paper surprise you?

M: Yes, it certainly does. The newspaper staff—the reporters, writers, editors, and linotype operators—must be busy continuously. They need a large circulation to support such a staff, don't they?

W: I'm sure they do. Of course, much of a newspaper's income comes from advertisements.

M: That's true. I try to read the whole paper, don't you?

W: No. I just read the parts that interest me. I glance at the headlines, but I read the sports page and the business section carefully. Do you read those?

M: No, but I do read the editorials and the news section. You saw the article about the earthquake in Japan, didn't you?

W: Yes. That was a terrible disaster. Do you think newspapers should print stories like that?

M: Certainly they should! They're part of the news of the day and people want to know about them. Don't you agree?

W: Yes, I suppose disasters are news, too. It seems to me that newspapers would be more pleasant to read if they had a large society section and more comic strips. Don't you like to read articles about celebrations and happy events?

M: Yes, I enjoy reading them. But since you don't like to read unhappy news, why do you subscribe to two news papers? If I were you, I wouldn't read a newspaper at all.

(23)

A.Newspaper of low price.

B.Newspaper with attractive headline.

C.Newspaper with sports page.

D.Newspaper with business section.
