听力原文： Buying a house is always an expensive business. It is not just money that you spend but also a lot of time and energy finding and visiting houses. At first my wife and I tried to do things the easy way -- by telephone. We rang up a number of house agents, told them what we wanted and asked them to send us lists of suitable houses for safe. We didn't want to do too much work, as my wife was pregnant; Our flat would be too small for three people, which was why we wanted to move.
We soon began getting the lists we had asked for. There were hundreds of houses. Every evening for a week we went through the lists. We were looking for houses which we could afford and were near an underground station and a park. We then made a short list of such suitable houses. This list consisted of about twenty houses. Every weekend for the next two months we went out visiting the houses on our list. Some were too dark inside, some were in very noisy areas. Then, we found exactly what we were looking for. At last we thought, we moved into the house two months later. We couldn't move in straight away. The people selling the house were themselves looking for a new one -- and you know how long that takes.

听力原文： Going through cities and villages, I was attracted by Swedish national flags flying over houses and buildings which were ordinary family houses and offices. I noticed that on the road, all the cars' headlights were turned on even under the sun of June. Mr. Raiding explained that according to the new traffic regulations, drivers were required to keep the lights on day and night, which helped decrease the traffic accidents. Along both sides of the road, there were high fences used to keep the animals living in the forests from rushing onto the road. I could see little bare land in the country. In fact, fifty-four percent of the land is covered by forests and another ten percent by lakes and rivers. I was told that in Sweden nobody has the right to lay the land bare -- whoever cuts the trees Or spoils the grass must restore it right away. Whenever trees are cut, they are replaced by young trees at once.
Around Sweden, there is a notice in the bathroom of every hotel, which reads: "We care for our environment." In Sweden, you cannot see rubbish in streets, public gardens, rivers or lakes. The bottles are made of glass and the packages are made of paper or other natural materials which can be recycled. To make best use of their resources, Swedes never turn on the heating too high or the air-condition too low. The indoor temperature is always kept around twenty-five degrees Centigrade, no matter at home or in large hotels.
(33)
A．Because it would help decrease traffic accidents.
B．Because it was a Swedish custom.
C．Because it was always very dark in Sweden.
D．Because it was always cloudy and rainy in Sweden.

听力原文： Years ago before there were refrigerators, an icehouse was a building used for storing ice. The first icehouses were in the cellars of farmhouses. Pieces of ice, mixed with snow and meadow grass, were piled in winter and kept until the following summer. Soon farmers began to build separate houses for storing ice. These icehouses had double walls with hay stuffed between to keep out any heat. Blocks of ice were put inside the icehouse and packed with straw or sawdust.
Where did the ice for these icehouses come from？ Workers took it from a frozen pond or river. They sawed the ice into even blocks. Then they pulled the ice blocks from the water with hooks and carried them to the icehouses on sleds.
Special tools helped the workers cut and handle the ice. Ice axes chopped large holes in the ice. Ice saws cut the ice into even blocks. Choppers loosened these blocks from one another. Ice hooks fastened themselves into the large blocks. Then they could be carried over the frozen surface of the pond or river. Tongs were used to pick up the smaller blocks of ice.
Ships carried ice all over the world. In 1799 the first boatload in the United States was sent from New York City to icehouses in New Orleans, Louisiana. A boatload was sent from Boston, Massachusetts, to the West Indies to help fight yellow fever in 1805. Ice merchants in Boston also shipped tons of ice from ponds and rivers to cities in Europe.
