SECTION B PASSAGES
Directions: In this section, you will hear several passages. Listen to the passages carefully and then answer the questions that follow.
听力原文： In the water around New York City is a very small island called Liberty Island. On Liberty Island there is a very special statue called the Statue of Liberty. It is one of the famous sights in the world.
The Statue of Liberty was a gift from the people of France to the people of the United States. The statue was made by a French sculptor named Frederic Auguste Bartholdi. The inner support system was designed by Gustave Eiffel, the same man who made the famous Eiffel Tower in Paris.
Liberty, of course, means freedom, and the Statue of Liberty was given to the United States to celebrate the 100 th anniversary of U. S. independence from England. The statue was built in France, taken apart piece by piece, and then rebuilt in the United States. It was opened for the public on October 28, 1886.
As you might expect, the statue is very big. Visitors can ride an elevator from the ground to the bottom of the statue. If they want to, they can then walk up the 168 steps to reach the head of the statue where they can look out and enjoy the beautiful sight of the city of New York.

It has been our experiment that even advanced learners of English are likely to be slow readers. Therefore, the emphasis of the book is on reading speed, not on vocabulary development.

听力原文： Hotels today are quite different from those of the past. People who stay in them are generally traveling for business, or they are touring or on vacation. So hotels are designed mainly to meet the needs of one of these two groups of people. Hotels designed for business people are known as commercial, or transient hotels. Hotels for people on vacation are called vacation, or resort hotels.
Transient hotels are usually located in the business section of a town, while resort hotels may be at the seashore, on a mountain lake, or in the desert.
In addition to these two main types, there is a third type of hotel, called a residential hotel. This is designed to meet the needs of people who want to live in a hotel.
Inns and hotels arc located in nearly every population center in the world. In the United States alone there are a bout thirty thousand. Some hotels have as few as ten rooms, others have several hundred. Among the largest hotels in the world today are the Conrad Hilton in Chicago, Illinois, and the Russia in Moscow, each with about three thousand rooms.

听力原文： When cars first started appearing on the streets of the world, few people took them seriously. They were toys--playthings for grown men who didn't have much to do. No one thought that the automobile would become the world's most popular means of transportation.
When Henry Ford started selling his Model T in 1908, he changed all that. Ford believed that a car should be low-cost transportation that everyone could afford. So he decided to make such a car. First, he wanted a dependable automobile that wouldn't break down easily. Then he wanted a simple engine that almost anyone could fix.
Ford wanted to sell the car at a low price, so he had to make it at a low cost. Thus he made only one model and designed one color--black.
In 1932, the Duesenberg brothers produced a car that many people think it was the most luxurious automobile ever made--the Duesenberg SJ. Every Duesenberg car was custom-made, so each one was different. But it usually weighed about 7,000 pounds and had a very wide wheelbase--150 inches. It also had a 400 horsepower engine that could drive the huge car from zero to 100 miles per hour in 17 seconds.
The inside was very luxurious, too. It had the best silk, leather, silver and wood. A Dusenberg car was definitely expensive but rich people often felt that they had to own one. Unfortunately, the car cost so much to produce that the company lost money. In 1937, after making only 500 of them, the Duesenbergs stopped producing this kind of cars forever.
(33)
A．The two models of cars.
B．The history of car industry.
C．The development of cars in America.
D．The structure of Duesenberg cars.

SECTION B PASSAGES
Directions: In this section, you will hear several passages. Listen to the passages carefully and then answer the questions that follow.
听力原文： Big Ben is located in the tower at the eastern end of the Houses of Parliament, Westminster, and Greater Lon- don. It was designed by Edmund Beckett and Baron Grimthorpe.
Nobody really knows why it's called Big Ben. There're two hearsays about this. Some people say that it was named after Benjamin Caunt, a boxer, who was called Big Ben. More people believe it was called after a Welshman, Sir Benjamin Hall, a commissioner of the work at the time of its installation in 1859.
It took fifteen years to build. In 1857, the bell was completed and tested on the ground, but a four-foot crack appeared and the bell had to be east again. Finally, the clock started ticking on 31 May, 1859. Then in September,
the bell cracked again. It was silent for four years but was eventually turned a quarter of a revolution. In this way, the crack was not under the striking hammer, Craftsmen made a square above the crack to stop it growing longer and it can still be seen today.
Big Ben is famous not only for its 13-ton weight, but also for its accuracy that is a result of its precise mechanism. Although there have been several problems, the bell is still striking today. Its chimes can be heard all over the world on the BBC.
Whom the bell was named after according to most people？
A．A boxer named Benjamin Caunt.
B．An member of parliament.
C．Welshman, Sir Benjamin Hall.
D．Edmund Beckett.
