听力原文:M: How did you like yesterday's astronomy class?
W: It was interesting. But the point she was trying to make seemed a little far-fetched.
M: Oh, that new theory that ocean water came from comets?
W: Yeah. Do you remember what it was based on?
M: Some recent satellite photos, I think. Apparently, space satellites recently detected thousands of small comets colliding with earth's outer atmosphere, almost 40,000 per day.
W: Ok, so they collided with the atmosphere. So that's what created the water?
M: It's not that the collision created water. Comets contain water. They are made up mostly of cosmic dust and water. When they collide with the atmosphere, they break up. And the water they contain rains down to earth. Ocean water came from that rain.
W: Oh. Well, this morning I asked my geology professor about that. He said that most geologists draft accept it.
M: Why not?
W: Their research indicates that most of the water molecules from the comet would have burned up as they fell through the atmosphere. Enough rain couldn't have reached the earth to fill up the ocean.
M: Well, did the geologists have an alternative theory to explain where ocean water came from?
W: Yeah, he said the more traditional view is that the ocean water came from volcanoes.
M: From volcanoes?
W: Right. They say volcanic fumes are mostly steam. And they claimed that it was the volcanic steam that created the oceans, not rain from comets.
What are speakers mainly discussing?
A.The effect of the atmosphere on rainfall.
B.How conditions on Earth support life.
C.How water originated on Earth.
D.A new estimate of the age of Earth.

W: Oh well, this morning I asked my geology professor about that. He said that most geologists don't accept it.
M: Why not?
W: Special research indicates that most of the water molecules from the comet would have burned up as they fell through the atmosphere. Enough rain couldn't have reached the earth to fill up the ocean.

听力原文:M: Hello, "Flying Paradise". How can I help you?
W: Oh hi. I'm interested in doing a course in your club.
M: Which course are you interested in?
W: Well, I'm not sure. What's available?
M: Well... we've got the introductory course which lasts for two days.
W: OK.
M: Or there's the 4-day beginners' course which is what most people do first. I'd tend to recommend that one. And there's also the elementary pilot course which takes five to six days depending on conditions.
W: We might try the beginner's course. What sort of prices are we looking at?
M: The introductory is $190; the beginner's course, which is what you'd probably be looking at, is$320—no, sorry $330—it's just gone up—and the pilot course is $430.
W: Right.
M: And you also have to become a member of our club so that you're insured. That'll cost you $12 a day. Everyone has to take out insurance, you see.
W: Does that cover me if I break a leg?
M: No, I'm afraid not—it's only 3rd party and covers you against damage to other people or their belongings, but not theft or injury. You would need to take your own personal accident insurance.
W: I see! And what's the best way to get to your place? By public transport or could we come by bike? We're pretty keen cyclists.
M: It's difficult by public transport although there is a bus from Newcastle: most people get there by car, because we're a little off the beaten track. But you could ride here OK. I'll send you a map. Just let me take down a few details. What's your name?
W: Maria Gentle.

M: McDonald...
W: The post office box address is probably best. It's PO box 676, Newcastle.
M: Is there a fax number there, because I could fax you the information?
W: Yes, actually, there is. It's 0249 that's for Newcastle and then double seven five four three one.
M: OK. Now if you decide to do one of our courses, you'll need to book in advance and to pay when you book. How would you be paying?
W: By credit card, if that's OK. Do you take Visa?
M: Yes, fine. We take all major cards, including Visa.
W: OK then. Thanks very much.

Hong Kong is one of the most cosmopolitan cities in the world. A bustling business center, it retains its Chinese character in every corner and section of the city. Its land area, which adjoins the province of Guangdong, is 1078 square kilometers, made up or, Hong Kong Island, Kowloon and the New Territories, including 235 outlying islands. The population is just over six million, of which 95 percent are Chinese. Cantonese is the most widely spoken Chinese dialect, though Mandarin, Shanghainese and other Chinese dialects are also spoken, along with the international commercial language of English.
A common sight in Hong Kong is the businessman or woman standing on the street, or hurrying along the footpath, talking into a cell phone or mobile phone. The noise of the traffic and people selling and buying is no barrier to people using these "street offices." And in keeping with the territory's constant mix of new and old, the modern cars that flash along the roads, such as the large Mercedes Benz and Rolls Royce limousines, are complemented by the most traditional of trams, and the ferry boats carrying workers to and fro on a 15-minute ride across the harbor. The Star Ferry service has connected Hong Kong Island and Kowloon since 1898, while the electric tram system has been in place since 1904.
Even a modern development such as Ocean Park with its massive aquarium on several levels, its performing whales and seals in the giant pool, its hi-tech cable car and 72-meter tall Sky Tower, bows to the traditional foundation Of Hong Kong. In the center of what is southeast Asia's largest leisure complex lies Middle Kingdom, a large area which represents a living history of China through replicas of ancient palaces and pagodas, temple arid street scenes.
The author of the passage is impressed by Hong Kong's ______.
A.Ocean Park
B.skyscrapers
C.street offices
D.mix of old and new
