听力原文： Despite the fact that healthy eating has more publicity than ever before, the sales of chocolate continue to rise.
But why do we like it so much？ It's not enough to answer: "Because it tastes nice." So do other foods. But do you know any other food which some people have to keep closed until their guests arrive？ They know that if they open the chocolate on their own, they'll probably go on eating until they feel slightly ill. And it isn't just the sugar that people like. In the 17th century, when chocolate first arrived here as a drink, people did not put sugar in it because sugar was too expensive.
"Comfort" is a good word to explain why chocolate is more than just another food. It makes people feel safe.
"After a busy day, I like to sit and listen to the radio with a cup of tea and a bar of chocolate."
One answer is that, like coffee, cola and tea, chocolate contains the stimulants. This could explain why it is so difficult to stop eating chocolate once you've started. Some people even fear that they won't be able to atop, and this makes them literally afraid of chocolate.
(33)
A．Because it is better than other foods.
B．Because it tastes good.
C．Because it provides comfort and pleasure.
D．Because it serves as a special food for guests.
听力原文：M: Hi, Susan, why are you off in such a hurry？
W: I've been invited to a cocktail party at 5: 30. I need to buy some gift for my friend. Do you know somewhere I can get some fresh flowers？
M: Just over there, near the post office. But you told me if invited to a party, you'd better plan to arrive between a half-hour and an hour late. Why are you in such a hurry？
W: But not a cocktail party. It's generally set for specific hours, say from 5:30 to 7:30.
M: What's a cocktail party like？
W: Alcoholic beverages and hors d'oeuvres.
M: Only that？
W: Yes. People usually don't get dinner at a cocktail party.
M: Why do you have such a party？
W: It's called by some of my colleagues to celebrate the New Year.
M: To celebrate the New Year! Why not have a dinner party？
W: Dinner party is so formal for us. We just take it for relaxation. And then some of us may go to a pub.
M: For what？ You don't celebrate the New Year with your family？
W: We just drink and chat. Anyway, New Year is a special day and I only celebrated New Year with my family when I was a little girt.
M: It's really fantastic. But you'd better get moving, or you'll be late.

听力原文：W: Well, there is not too much you can do about the flu, you know. The best thing you can do is to stay home. It' s best to stay away from other people, so why don' t you take a couple of days off from work？
M: Yes, I will. And do you think I should stay in bed and rest？
W: It's not really necessary to go to bed. Just as long as you stay indoors and rest. You know, watch TV or read.
M: I see. Nothing too active, huh？ And is it a good idea to drink a lot？
W: Yes, you need to drink lots of liquids. That' ll help. Now you won' t feel very hungry, but when you do eat, just eat a little. Don' t have a big meal. That way it' ll be easier to rest.
M: OK. Are you going to give me a prescription？

听力原文：M: Hi, Ann, welcome back. How's your trip to the states？
W: Very busy. I had a lot of meetings. So, of course, I didn't have much time to see New York.
M: What a pity. Actually I have a trip there myself next week.
W: Do you？ Then take my advice. Do the well-being in the air program. It really works.
M: Oh, I read about that in a magazine. You say it works？
W: Yes. I did the program on the flight to the States. And when I arrived in New York, I didn't have any problem. No jet leg at all. On the way back I didn't do it, and I felt terrible.
M: You are joking.
W: Not at all. It really made a lot of difference.
M: Hmm... So, what did you do？
W: Well, I didn't drink any alcohol or coffee and I didn't eat any meat or rich food. I drink a lot of water and fruit juice and I eat the meals on the well-being menu. They are lighter. They have fish, vegetables and noodles, for example. And I did some of the exercises in the program.
M: Exercises？ On a plane？
W: Yes. I didn't do many, of course. There isn't much space on the plane.
M: How many passengers did the exercises？
W: Not many.
M: And how much champagne did they drink？
W: A lot. It was more popular than mineral water.
M: So, basically it's a choice. Mineral water and exercises or champagne and jet lag.
W: That's right. It's a difficult choice.

To use a pun by New York Times columnist Thomas Friedman, who changes WMD to PMD (people of mass destruction), I call much of the adult generation PMNs--people of mass naivete. I say this because adults seem to believe that no child of theirs would touch alcohol before 21. Since that's unrealistic ,the issue should be: how can kids learn to drink responsibly？ The answer: by practising. Like figuring out how to throw a baseball, a person needs to learn by trial and error.
Now, I am not proposing that underage kids should have access to alcohol at all times, but they will never know when they have reached their limit without drinking alcohol first. Trust me, we feel when we have surpassed our limit.
It has often been stressed to my generation that there should always be a designated driver who does not drink. But, realistically, when people go to a bar, are they not supposed to drink？ My friend, a willing designated driver, was asked by a friend on the bar why he did not have a drink in his hand. He responded, "I am driving. ' She then repeated her question while laughing. In other words, college students face intense pressure to drink when they are out socially, even though some manage to withstand it.
The solution I propose is two-fold. First, to parents: if you have children in high school, understand that your kids will drink at parties. Despite the legal drinking age, they will find a way to obtain beer or liquor. While you are home drinking this holiday season, have a drink with your kids and their friends, or at the very least, allow them to have a drink. Ensure they are safe, but also guarantee that they know what they are doing. Please introduce them to alcohol before they go off to college so that, on the first weekend, they don't drink themselves into the ER. They do this not because they want to drink to get drunk, but because they do not know any better.
Second, to lawmakers: how are teenagers supposed to learn to drink responsibly when they cannot even drink legally with their parents？ Having a drink with your parents at a restaurant is a much more adult experience than drinking with them at home. The truth of the matter is that almost all underage drinking is done outside the home, in social circles. So lawmakers should make an exception and allow teenagers ,who are one or two years under the drinking age and accompanied by their parents, to have a drink at a restaurant.
Most of us live in an environment that is geared toward drinking and overdrinking, and adults must face this truth. If they do not wake up and see reality, their kids one morning might not wake up from a night of drinking.
Which one can be the best title of the passage？
A．How to Practise Drinking.
B．Don't Drink Beyond Your Limit.
C．My Personal Opinion on Alcohol Drinking.
D．Teaching Kids to Drink Responsibly.

听力原文：W: Oh, Peter, there you are. You've been ages. What kept you so long？
M: I'm sorry I am so late, Sally. Have you been waiting long？
W: Oh, half an hour. But it doesn't matter. I've had a coffee and I have been reading this guidebook for tourists. Sit down. You look very hot and tired. What would you like to drink？
M: I'd love a really chilled mineral water or something. Will you have another coffee？
W: Yes, I will. The waitress will be back in a moment. Why were you so late？ Did something happen？
M: You know I went to the bank to cash some traveler's checks. Well, the exchange rate was looking healthy, but when I went to the teller, they told me the computer system was temporarily down, so they couldn't do any transactions. They said the problem would be fixed in a few minutes, so I waited. And then I started talking to another guy in the bank, and I forgot the time.
W: Oh, really？ Someone you met in the bank？ Does he work there？
M: No, he's a tourist, from New York. His name's Henry, and he has been here for a week, but he's moving on to Germany tomorrow. He's an architect, and he's spending four weeks traveling around Europe.
W: Just like us!
M: Yeah. He told me the names of some places where we should eat. Great food, and not too expensive, he said. He also gave me this map of the bus system. He said he didn't need it any more.
W: That's useful. Pity he's moving on tomorrow. Ah, here's the waitress. Let's order. Do you want anything to eat, or shall we just have a drink？
M: Well, I'm hungry, and we've got a lot of sightseeing to do, so let's just have a snack and a drink.

听力原文：W: Harry, you are an exercise physiologist by training, right？
M: Right.
W: So you can really tell us what we need to do here. Is this all about technology？ Is there so much technology, in our office that we don't even bother to walk across the room to talk to our colleagues？ Is that why we are gaining weight at our, at our cubicles？
M: Well, there are probably multiple variables that are causing this whole phenomenon. Eh, inactivity, obviously is the reason. Why are we inactive？ Over the last ten to twenty years, the faster and the more technology moves, the less we do.
W: Right.
M: While you used to get up, write a message and go see your colleague all the way across the office; now you spend 30 seconds, you write an e-mail zip, it's gone. You are onto the next thing.
W: Yeah.
M: Eh, so there are many reasons why we are less active even in the workplace. Problem is we are in such, we live in such an all-or-none society, that if people don't get 30 to 60 minutes of the formal exercise everyday, they give up.
W: Right.
M: So what's the use？ Why should I？
W: OK. So what are things people can do before or after work？ You know if they are trying to work as many hours as possible and also spend time with family and everything else, things they can do to help them at least get some exercise.
M: You know, if you commute uh, the New York City, take the bus or the subway, get off the stop earlier before you are supposed to, wherever you are supposed to get off.
W: Right.
M: Get off the stop earlier. That gives you a few extra blocks that you can walk.
W: Sure.
M: Eh, instead, if you are up on the 15th floor, I ant not gonna recommend you take the stairs for 15 flights. But you can take the elevator to the 12 floor and walk up 3 flights.
W: You know what, I've seen people who actually have been doing that way, who use the stairs all the time, makes a huge, huge difference.
M: Absolutely. It's just a matter of getting your 2 minutes here and there. It's a, overall, it all adds up.
W: And what should you do at lunchtime？ What about lunchtime？
M: Eh, be sensible. If you are moving less, you really require less energy. And you require less calories if you will.
W: Right.
M: So eat a little lighter, eat a little bit less, drink, eh, non-caloric fluids like water or even diet soda ff you are a soda drinker. And help that..., let that help you fill up.
Why do people nowadays become less active？
A．People are too lazy to do exercise.
B．People are more reliable on modem technology than on themselves.
C．People usually give up formal exercise.
D．People are too busy with their work and family.
