Mr. Jim Reardon,
We would like to thank you for helping us to have such wonderful time in Berlin. Because we own a hotel about the same size as yours, we understand how busy you must be, and it makes us appreciate even more the time you gave to us while we were at the hotelier's connection last month.
My brother had said that you would make us feel welcome, but you did even more than that. It was very kind of you to drive us to see all of the sights in your great city - especially the newly rebuilt parliament building, which we found to be an impressive architectural work indeed. We were impressed by the richness of Berlin's culture and life, and will surely recommend a visit there to all of our colleagues as well as to our guests.
Please don't hesitate to contact us if you ever expect to be in Tokyo. We would be honored to return your kindness if you are ever in our city.
Sincerely,
Barb McCarthy

听力原文： One of the most popular literary figures in American literature is a woman who spent almost half of her long life in China, a country on a continent thousands of miles from the United States. In her lifetime she earned this country's most highly honored literary award, the Pulitzer Prize, and also the most prestigious form. of literary recognition in the world, the Nobel Prize for Literature. Pearl Buck was almost a household word throughout much of her lifetime because of her literary output, which consisted of some eighty-five published works, including several dozen novels, six collections of short stories, fourteen books for children, and more than a dozen works of nonfiction. When she was eighty years old, some twenty five volumes were awaiting publication. Many of those books were set in China, the land in which she spent so much of her life. Her books and her life served as a bridge between the cultures of the East and the West. Her unique background as the product of those two cultures made her into an unusually interesting and versatile human being. As we examine the life of Pearl Buck, we cannot help but be aware that we are in fact meeting three separate people: a wife and mother, an internationally famous writer, and a humanitarian. One cannot really get to know Pearl Buck without learning about each of the three. Though honored in her lifetime with the William Dean Howell Medal of the American Academy of Arts and Letters in addition to the Nobel and Pulitzer Prizer, Pearl Buck as a total human being, not only a famous author, is a fascinating subject of study.

2. Gifts of the magi After Jesus was born in Bethlehem in the territory of Judea during the rule of King Herod, magi came from the east to Jerusalem. They asked, “Where is the newborn king of the Jews？ We’ve seen his star in the east, and we’ve come to honor him.” When King Herod heard this, he was troubled, and everyone in Jerusalem was troubled with him. He gathered all the chief priests and the legal experts and asked them where the Christ was to be born. They said, “In Bethlehem of Judea, for this is what the prophet wrote: You, Bethlehem, land of Judah, by no means are you least among the rulers of Judah, because from you will come one who governs, who will shepherd my people Israel.” Then Herod secretly called for the magi and found out from them the time when the star had first appeared. He sent them to Bethlehem, saying, “Go and search carefully for the child. When you’ve found him, report to me so that I too may go and honor him.” When they heard the king, they went; and look, the star they had seen in the east went ahead of them until it stood over the place where the child was. When they saw the star, they were filled with joy. They entered the house and saw the child with Mary his mother. Falling to their knees, they honored him. Then they opened their treasure chests and presented him with gifts of gold, frankincense, and myrrh. Because they were warned in a dream not to return to Herod, they went back to their own country by another route. 3. What can be inferred from the passage？

How were athletes of ancient Olympic Games rewarded by the event？
A．Some of them were honored by having a ring of holy olive leaves.
B．Most of them, in fact, were richly rewarded with prize money by their countries.
C．The winner of foot race was honored by having holy olive leaves instead of prize money.
D．The winner of foot race was the most honorable one, for his name would be remembered for at least a year.
The Games took place in August on the plain by Mount Olympus. Many thousands of spectators gathered from all parts of Greece. Slaves, women and dishonored persons were not allowed to compete. The exact sequence of events is uncertain, but events included boy's gymnastics, boxing, wrestling, horse racing and field events.
On the last day of the Games, all the winners were honored by having a ring of holy olive leaves placed on their heads. So great was the honor that the winner of the foot race gave his name to the year of his victory. Although Olympic winners received no prize money, they were, in fact, richly rewarded by their state authorities. How their results were compared with modern standards, we unfortunately have no means of telling.
Nowadays, the Games are held in different countries in turn. The host country provides vast facilities, including a stadium, swimming pools and living accommodation, but competing countries pay their own athletes' expenses.
The Olympics start with the arrival in the stadium of a torch, lighted on Mount Olympus by the sun's rays. It is carried by a succession of runners to the stadium. The torch symbolizes the continuation of the ancient Greek athletic ideals, and it burns throughout the Games until the closing ceremony. The well-known Olympic flag, however, is a modern conception: the five interlocking rings symbolize the uniting of all five continents participating in the Games.
In the early days of ancient Olympic Games______.
A．only male Greek athletes were allowed to participate in the Games
B．all Greeks, irrespective of sex, religion or social status, were allowed to take part in
C．all Greeks, with the exception of women, were allowed to compete in the Games
D．all male Greeks were qualified to compete in the Games
Nowadays, the athletes expenses are paid for______.
IN ANCIENT GREECE ATHLETIC FESTIVALS WERE VERY IMPORTANT AND HAD STRONG RELIGIOUS ASSOCIATIONS. THE OLYMPIAN ATHLETIC FESTIVAL HELD EVERY FOUR YEARS IN HONOUR OF ZEUS, KING OF THE OLYMPIAN GODS, EVENTUALLY LOST ITS LOCAL CHARACTER, BECAME FIRST A NATIONAL EVENT AND THEN, AFTER THE RULES AGAINST FOREIGN COMPETITORS HAD BEEN ABOLISHED, INTERNATIONAL. NO ONE KNOWS EXACTLY HOW FAR BACK THE OLYMPIC GAMES GO, BUT SOME OFFICIAL RECORDS DATE FROM 776
B.
C. THE GAMES TOOK PLACE IN AUGUST ON THE PLAIN BY MOUNT OLYMPUS. MANY THOUSANDS OF SPECTATORS GATHERED FROM ALL PARTS OF GREECE, BUT NO MARRIED WOMAN WAS ADMITTED EVEN AS A SPECTATOR. SLAVES, WOMEN AND DISHONORED PERSONS WERE NOT ALLOWED TO COMPET
E. THE EXACT SEQUENCE OF EVENTS IS UNCERTAIN, BUT EVENTS INCLUDED BOY"S GYMNASTICS, BOXING, WRESTLING, HORSE RACING AND FIELD EVENTS, THOUGH THERE WERE FEWER SPORTS INVOLVED THAN IN THE MODERN OLYMPIC GAMES. ON THE LAST DAY OF THE GAMES, ALL THE WINNERS WERE HONORED BY HAVING A RING OF HOLY OLIVE LEAVES PLACED ON THEIR HEADS. SO GREAT WAS THE HONOUR THAT THE WINNER OF THE FOOT RACE GAVE HIS NAME TO THE YEAR OF HIS VICTORY. ALTHOUGH OLYMPIC WINNERS RECEIVED NO PRIZE MONEY, THEY WERE, IN FACT, RICHLY REWARDED BY THEIR STATE AUTHORITIES. HOW THEIR RESULTS COMPARED WITH MODERN STANDARDS, WE UNFORTUNATELY HAVE NO MEANS OF TELLIN
G. AFTER AN UNINTERRUPTED HISTORY OF ALMOST 1 200 YEARS, THE GAMES WERE SUSPENDED BY THE ROMANS IN 394 A.
D. THEY CONTINUED FOR SUCH A LONG TIME BECAUSE PEOPLE BELIEVED IN THE PHILOSOPHY BEHIND THE OLYMPICS: THE IDEA THAT A HEALTHY BODY PRODUCED A HEALTHY MIND, AND THAT THE SPIRIT OF COMPETITION IN SPORTS AND GAMES WAS PREFERABLE TO THE COMPETITION THAT CAUSED WARS. IT WAS OVER 1 500 YEARS BEFORE ANOTHER SUCH INTERNATIONAL ATHLETIC GATHERING TOOK PLACE IN ATHENS IN 1896. NOWADAYS, THE GAMES ARE HELD IN DIFFERENT COUNTRIES IN TUR
N. THE HOST COUNTRY PROVIDES VAST FACILITIES, INCLUDING A STADIUM, SWIMMING POOLS AND LIVING ACCOMMODATION, BUT COMPETING COUNTRIES PAY THEIR OWN ATHLETES" EXPENSES. THE OLYMPICS START WITH THE ARRIVAL IN THE STADIUM OF A TORCH, LIGHTED ON MOUNT OLYMPUS BY THE SUN"S RAYS. IT IS CARRIED BY A SUCCESSION OF RUNNERS TO THE STADIU
M. THE TORCH SYMBOLIZED THE CONTINUATION OF THE ANCIENT GREEK ATHLETIC IDEALS, AND IT BURNS THROUGHOUT THE GAMES UNTIL THE CLOSING CEREMONY. THE WELL-KNOWN OLYMPIC FLAG, HOWEVER, IS A MODERN CONCEPTION, THE FIVE INTERLOCKING RINGS SYMBOLIZE THE UNITING OF ALL FIVE CONTINENTS PARTICIPATING IN THE GAMES.
Many of those books were set in China, the land in which she spent so much of her life. Her books and her life served as a bridge between the cultures of the East and the West. As the product of those two cultures she became, as she described herself, “mentally double-sided”. Her unique background made her into an unusually interesting and versatile human being. As we examine the life of Pearl Buck, we cannot help but be aware that we are in fact meeting three separate people: a wife and mother, an internationally famous writer and a humanitarian and a charitable person. One cannot really get to know Pearl Buck without learning about each of the three. Though honored in her lifetime with the William Dean Howell Medal of the American Academy of Arts and Letters in addition to the Nobel and Pulitzer prizes, Pearl Buck as a total human being, not only a famous author, is a fascinating subject of study.
