听力原文:Clerk: Good morning, sir. Can I help you?
Customer: I want to make inquiries about leaving my car with you. You see, I'm going abroad, I don't want to take the car but I'll need it when I get back.
Clerk: I see, sir. Well, we can offer you full parking facilities for as long as you wish.
Customer: Good. I'm going to Athens for about a couple of weeks.
Clerk: Right, so how long do you want to leave the car with us?
Customer: Well, I'm flying to Athens on the 5th and coming back on the 19th -- that's fourteen days, isn't it?
Clerk: That works out at fifteen days parking, sir. Let me show you our scale of charges. We have a minimum fee of 6.50 pounds but for fifteen days it would only cost you 24.75 pounds.
Customer: It says 23.10 pounds here.
Clerk: No, sir, that's for fourteen days. If you're going to be away for fourteen nights, you wouldn't be picking up the car for fifteen days.
Customer: Hmm -- fifteen it is then.
Clerk: Now, if you'll just come this way, sir, we'll complete the booking form. Could I have your name?

Clerk: ... and the make of car, sir?
Customer: Just a Mini Metro.
Clerk: Mini Metro. And the colour? We get rather a lot of Mini Metros.

Customer: Yes, yes, the 5th, that's a Friday.
Clerk: Friday, 5th May. Now what time is your flight, sir?
Customer: Ten to twelve, I think. But I'll have to check in about half an hour beforehand.

Customer: So, I ought to be here about ten past eleven.

Here's an example to show how honorable actions create happiness.
Say a store clerk fails to charge us for an item. If we keep silent, and profit from the clerk's mistake, we would drive home with a sense of sneaky excitement. Later we might tell our family or friends about our good fortune. On the other hand, if we tell the clerk about the uncharged item, the clerk would be grateful and thank us for our honesty. We would leave the store with a quiet sense of honor that we might never share with another soul.
Then, what is it to do with our sense of happiness?
In the first case, where we don't tell the clerk, a couple of things would happen. Deep down inside we would know ourselves as a type of thief. In the process, we would lose some peace of mind and self-respect. We would also demonstrate that we cannot be trusted, since we advertise our dishonor by telling our family and friends. We damage our own reputations by telling others. In contrast, bringing the error to the clerk's attention causes different things to happen. Immediately the clerk knows us to be honorable. Upon leaving the store, we feel honorable and our self-respect is increased. Whenever we take honorable actions we gain the deep internal rewards of goodness and a sense of nobility.
There is a beautiful positive cycle that is created by living a life of honorable actions. Honorable thoughts lead to honorable actions. Honorable actions lead us to a happier existence. And It's easy to think and act honorably again when we're happy. While the positive cycle can be difficult to start, once it's started, it's easy to continue. Keeping on doing good deeds brings us peace of mind, which is important for our happiness.
According to the passage, the positive action in the example contributes to our______.
A.self-respect
B.financial rewards
C.advertising ability
D.friendly relationship

?Choose the best sentence to fill in each of the gaps.
?For each gap 8-12, mark one letter(A-G)on your Answer Sheet.
?Do not use any letter more than once.
The Securities Exchange
When people buy stock, most do so through one of the securities exchanges or marketplaces for stocks and bonds. These marketplaces are commonly called "stock exchanges" and they provide a meeting place for both the buyer and seller. To understand why such securities or stock exchanges are important in the purchase and sale of stocks and bonds, consider what would happen if you, and everyone who wanted do buy (or sell) securities, had to find your own buyer (or seller). If the market is going down the only way to recover your investment is to hang on to the stock and wait for it to come back. More importantly, how would you find out who is interested in selling that stock to you (or buying it from you)? In order to handle this marketing problem, securities exchanges sprung up. These exchanges are nothing more than locations where stocks are bought and sold. And since there is a common meeting place for there (or send their representatives). The result is a very systematic market process, where transations are handled in an orderly manner and the operations are both supervised and regulated by law. (8) Buying and Selling Securities
The general approach in buying and selling securities, regardless of the exchange where they are purchased, is basically the same, We provide a general picture of how security transactions take place; and for a fuller understanding, we will discuss some of the important terminology and functions of security trading. (9)
How would you go about buying stock in a major corporation? It's really quite simple. First, you would decide what you want to buy—such as 100 shares of IBM. (10)
Assuming your broker works for a major stock brokerage, the order would be telephoned directly to a company clerk on the floor of the New York Stock Exchange. The clerk would hand the order to a member of the Exchange who is a partner in the brokerage. This individual would then go to the appropriate locale on the trading floor and ask for the latest quote on IBM. Let us say it is "70 to a quarter." (11)
If your broker wants, a sale can be struck at $ 70.25 since the order calls for a purchase at the current market price. More likely, however, your broker will bid $ 70.125 and hope to save you one eighth of a point or $ 12.50. And it is likely that another broker with an order to sell will show up and accept the bid of $ 70 1/8. The two brokers will then initial each other's sales orders and see that the transaction is relayed to the exchange employee known as the reporter. The reporter sees that the sale is reported and a few minutes later it will come out on the ticker tape.
Bulls and Bears
What does "a bull" mean? It is a term that is used to refer to an invester who expects prices to rise.
(12) Of course, the market will not always rise. Sometimes stocks drop and remain low for extended periods of time. Those investors who expect stock prices to decline are known as "bears." During the Great Depression, the bears made a great deal of money. While the bulls were "buying long" the bears were "selling short."
A How would you know what a fair price for the security is?
B This means that someone is currently bidding "$ 70 for the stock and another party is willing to sell at $ 70.25."
C How stocks are actually purchased
D "Bulls" buy in anticipation of the market going up.
E In this way, the buyer (or seller) is ensured that the best price is secured and they are not shortchanged or cheated in any way.
