The tendency nowadays to wander in wildernesses is delightful to see. Thousands
of tired, nerve-shaking, over-civilized people are beginning to find out that going to 【S1】______
mountains is going home; that wildness is a necessity; and mountain parks and 【S2】______
reservations are useful not only as fountains of timber and irrigating rivers, and as 【S3】______
fountains of life. Awakening from the stupefying effects of the vicious of over-industry【S4】______
and the deadly apathy of luxury, they are trying as best they can to mix and enrich their
own little ongoings with that of Nature, and to get rid of rust and disease. Briskly 【S5】______
venturing and roaming, some are washing off sins and cares of the devil's spinning in
storms on mountains; sauntering in pinewoods or in meadows, brushing through
chaparral, bending down and parting sweet, flowery sprays; tracing rivers back their 【S6】______
sources, getting in touch with the nerves of Mother Earth; jumping from rock to rock,
panting in whole-souled exercise, and rejoicing, in deep, long-drawn breathes of pure 【S7】______
wildness. This is fine and natural and full of promise. So also was the growing interest【S8】______
in the care and preservation of forests and wild places in general, and in the half wild
parks and gardens of towns. Even the scenery exists in its most artificial forms, mixed
with spectacles, silliness, and kodaks; its devotees arrayed gorgeously than scarlet 【S9】______
tanagers, frightening the wild game with red umbrellas—even this is encouraging, and
may well be regarded as a hopeful sign of times. 【S10】______

"Welcome to the U.S.A.! Major Credit cards accepted!"
By the millions they are coming, no longer the tired, the poor, the wretched masses longing for a better living. These are the wealthy. "We don't have a budget," says a biologist from Brazil, as she walks with two companions through New York City's South Street. "We just use our credit cards."
The U.S. has long been one of the worlds most popular tourist destinations, but this year has been exceptional. First there was the World Cup, which drew thousands from every comer of the globe; then came the weakening of the U.S. dollar against major currencies. Now the U.S., still the worlds superpower, can also c .laim to be the worlds bargain basement. Nobody undersells America these days on just about everything, from consumer electronics to fashion clothes to tennis rackets. Bottom retail prices - anywhere from 30% to 70% lower than those in Europe and Asia - have attracted some 47 million visitors, who are expected to leave behind $79 billion in 1994. That's up from $74 billion the year before.
True, not everyone comes just for bargains. There remains an undeniable fascination in the rest of the world with all things American, nourished by Hollywood films and U.S. television series. But shopping the U.S.A. is proving irresistible. Every week thousands arrive with empty suitcases ready to be filled; some even rent an additional hotel room to hold their purchases. The buying binge has become as important as watching Old Faithful Fountains erupt in Yellowstone Park or sunbathing on a beach in Florida.
The U.S. has come at last to appreciate what other countries learned long ago: the pouring in of foreign tourists may not always be convenient, but it does put money in the bank. And with a trade deficit at about $130 billion and growing for the past 12 months, the U.S. needs all the deposits it can get. Compared with American tourists abroad, visitors to the U.S. stay longer and spend more money at each stop; and average of 12.2 night and $1624 a traveller versus the American's four nights and $298.
From what the Brazilian biologist says, we know that tourists like her______.
A．are reluctant to carry cash with them
B．simply don't care how much they spend
C．are not good at planning their expenditure
D．often spend more money than they can afford

city, efficiency and versatility that they have practically "invaded" almost each and every human domain(领域). They have undoubtedly gone far beyond the expectations of a generation that had already lived under the spell(一段时间) of the TV set.
Throughout history there have been inventions that have been particularly remarkable and influential(有影响力的) within the scope of transport, education, health or communication. They have brought out comfort, health, knowledge or power. Some of them have produced minor effects; others have brought about very great changes. Think of the invention of the wheel, the automobile or the printing press, and what about the computer？
At the beginning the computer was thought mainly as an instrument to be used in the mathematical field, but soon people from other sciences began to get interested in this little "brain" that was capable of performing thousands of operations in a few seconds without getting tired or confused. They realized it could not only store millions of pages of information but also organize it in every possible way enabling man to carry out tasks unthinkable by other means.
Computers are now everywhere. They can make vehicles at supersonic(超音速的) speed and precision; they can control world banking transactions(交易), predict weather conditions, conduct an aircraft or a space craft, play instruments, manage nuclear weapons; they can operate on human patients, they can transfer information from one continent to another in seconds, they can...they can...they can... Yet, thank God, they still need human beings: to draw the instructions, to design the programs or to push the button!

听力原文： Each day we all make many choices; most of these choices are small—what to wear, what to eat etc. still there are many important choices that we make in life—which university to attend, what to study, whom to marry, etc. Sometimes we may become tired of making choices, but we always know that we will continue to make them as long as we live, because that is better than having them made for us. We may sometimes ask for advice about a choice we must make, but ultimately most of the decisions as to which choices are best will be made by ourselves, both important and unimportant. We also know that we will undoubtedly have to suffer that consequences of making poor choices and that we will often rejoice in the many fortunate choices we make.
Many writers have written about choices throughout our lives such as Boris Pasternak etc. One of the most popular and beloved poems in the English language has "choice" as its subject matter. In this poem, "The Road Not Taken", Robert Frost describes walking along a path through the woods and coming to a fork in the path. He must choose which fork to take, that is, which way to go, knowing that he will probably never be able to come back and try the other way. He ends his poem by "I took the one less traveled by, and that has made all the difference". This poem is seen as a metaphor for the important choices in life which do, indeed, make "all the difference". In Frost's case, the choice is often interpreted as his choice of career, to take the risk of becoming a poet, knowing that thousands of poets never really succeed.

A．Because it is difficult to make choices.
B．Because it is necessary for us to live.
C．Because others make us to do so.
D．Because making choice is better than having choices made for us.

M: That's really a new walk of life. What is it exactly？
W: It helps match up singles the world over, and helps find the man and woman of their dreams.
M: Oh, it must be to the taste of a certain group of people.
W: The advertisement said Dream Dates has matched up thousands of singles the world over!
M: Unbelievable! They must be exaggerating the figure!
W: Look at the way they manage their business: they collect applicants' photos, and give the applicants questionnaires to fill out as to what type of character they are.
M: I don't believe several questions can decide the type of person you're, People's characters are complicated and keep changing all the time.
W: Anyway, it seems that things work well this way. The information and specifications will be entered in a large computer database.
M: A computer to decide your best date？ That's really ridiculous !
W: Look, it promises: Dream Dates provides expert dating service and a place for singles to meet, We'll introduce you to the person uniquely qualified to be your partner.
M: Sheer slogans! Not reliable!
W: It says you can enroll in a free trial membership!
M: I won't do it even they pay me for that!

B．Because he is too common a person.
C．Because he has failed to realize his dreams.
