听力原文: Is your family interested in buying a dog? A dog can be a happy addition to your family, but if you choose the wrong kind of dog, the consequences can cause you a lot of trouble. Families should sit down and thoroughly discuss the problems involved before buying a dog. Even if the children in your family are the ones who want the dogs, the parents are the ones who are really responsible for seeing that the animal is properly cared for. If you dont know much about dogs, its a good idea to go to the library or the ASPCA for books about various kinds of dogs, as well as books about how to train a puppy. When a book describes a dog as an ideal hunting dog, it probably means that the dog wont be happy living in a small apartment. Dog breeds vary in popularity as the years go by. One of the most popular dogs these days is the German shepherd. This is because it provides protection as well as companionship. The family should be warned that these dogs grow up to be very big, and may be too powerful for children to handle. If space is limited, a toy dog may be a good choice. These dogs are very small and easy to train. They dont need to be walked daily, since they can exercise in the space available in the home. Questions 16 to 18 are based on the passage you have just heard. 16. What is the passage mainly about? 17. How does the speaker suggest people get information about dogs? 18. Why is the German shepherd a popular dog according to the passage?16.

B.By visiting an experienced dog trainer.
C.By buying a dog from a pet store.
D.By reading books about dogs.
A.Laundry worker.
B.Plumber.

听力原文: Professor Barry Wellman of the University of Toronto in Canada has invented a term to describe the way many North Americans interact these days. The term is "networked individualism". This concept is not easy to understand because the words seem to have opposite meanings. How can we be individuals and be networked at the same time? You need other people for networks. Here is what Professor Wellman means. Before the invention of the Internet and email, our social networks included live interactions with relatives, neighbors, and friends. Some of the interaction was by phone, but it was still voice to voice, person to person, in real time. A recent research study by the Pew Internet and American Life Project showed that for a lot of people, electronic interaction through the computer has replaced this person-to-person interaction. However, a lot of people interviewed for the Pew study say thats a good thing. Why? In the past, many people were worried that the Internet isolated us and caused us to spend too much time in the imaginary world of the computer. But the Pew study discovered that the opposite is true. The Internet connects us with more real people than expected — helpful people who can give advice on careers, medical problems, raising children, and choosing a school or college. About 60 million Americans told Pew that the Internet plays an important role in helping them make major life decisions. Thanks to the computer, we are able to be alone and together with other people — at the same time! Questions 20 to 22 are based on the passage you have just heard. 20. What do many people rely on to make major life decisions according to the Few study? 21. What can be inferred from the Pew study? 22. Which would be the best title for this passage?20.
A.People have been separated from each other by using computers.
B.The Internet makes people waste a lot of time and feel very lonely.
C.The Internet has become a tool for a new kind of social communication.
D.A lot of people regard the person-to-person communication as a good thing.

W: I mean Im tutoring someone else. I go downtown to tutor a few students at high school. M: I find that hard to believe. And what subject do you tutor, math or something else? W: Right. You see, the city is trying to raise the standards for its math classes. The problem is, a lot of the kids are far behind when they get to juniour high school. M: Yeah, I have read such report in the newspaper. But does the time schedule conflict with your own classes? W: I only have three students for forty minutes each weekend. Most of the tutors there are students at university, so our classes arent over there. And we are volunteers, so the programme doesnt cost a lot and the city education department likes us. M: Can you afford to take that much time away from your own studying? W: Some weeks are kind of hard especially when the examination is approaching. But anyway I may as well get used to teaching easy materials to the students, so as to get the practical experience. M: And it must be nice to help people. W: Definitely.
