Part A
Directions: Read the following four texts. Answer the questions below each text by choosing A, B, C or D. (40 points)
Most towns up to Elizabethan times were smaller than a modern village and each of them was built around its weekly market where local produce was brought for sale and the town folks sold their work to the people from the countryside and provided them with refreshment for the day. Trade was virtually confined to that one day even in a town of a thousand or so people. On market days craftsmen put up their stalls in the open air whilst on one or two other days during the week the townsman would pack up his loaves, or nails, or cloth, and set out early to do a day’s trade in the market of an adjoining town where, however, he would be charged a heavy toll for the privilege and get a less favourable spot for his stand than the local craftsmen. Another chance for him to make a sale was to the congregation gathered for Sunday morning worship. Although no trade was allowed anywhere during the hours of the service (except at annual fair times), after church there would be some trade at the church door with departing country folk.
The trade of markets was almost wholly concerned with exchanging the products of the nearby countryside and the goods sold in the market but particularly in food retail dealing was distrusted as a kind of profiteering. Even when there was enough trade being done to afford a livelihood to an enterprising man ready to buy wholesale and sell retail, town authorities were reluctant to allow it.
Yet there were plainly people who were tempted to “forestall the market” by buying goods outside it, and to “regrate” them, that is to resell them, at a higher price. The constantly repeated rules against these practices and the endlessly recurring prosecutions mentioned in the records of all the larger towns prove that some well-informed and sharp-witted people did these things.
Every town made its own laws and if it was big enough to have craft guilds, these associations would regulate the business of their members and tried to enforce a strict monopoly of their own trades. Yet while the guild leaders, as craftsmen, followed fiercely protectionist policies, at the same time, as leading townsmen, they wanted to see a big, busy market yielding a handsome revenue in various dues and tolls. Conflicts of interest led to endless, minute regulations, changeable, often inconsistent, frequently absurd. There was a time in the fourteenth century, for example, when London fishmongers were not allowed to handle any fish that had not already been exposed for sale for three days by the men who caught it.
We know from Paragraph 1 that craftsmen
A.sold all of their goods on market days.
B.could sell their goods during Sunday morning services.
C.coud do trades in neighbour towns freely.
D.didn’t have chance to do trades everyday.
听力原文: A man once said how useless it was to put advertisements in the newspapers. "Last week," he said, "My umbrella was stolen from a London church. As it was a present, I spent twice its worth in advertising, but didn't get it back."
"How did you write your advertisement?" asked a businessman.
The man took out of his pocket a slip cut from a newspaper. The other man took it and read, "Lost from the City Church last Sunday evening, a black silk umbrella. The gentleman who finds it will receive ten shillings on leaving it at No. 10 Broad Street."
"Now," said the man, "I often advertise, and find that it is always useful. But the way in which an advertisement is expressed is of great importance."
The businessman then took a slip of paper and wrote: "If the man who was seen to take an umbrella from the City Church last Sunday evening does not wish to get into trouble, he will return the umbrella to No. 10 Broad Street. He is already known."
This appeared in the newspaper, and on the following morning, the man was astonished when he opened the door. In the door way lay at least twelve umbrellas of all size and colors that had been thrown in, and his own was among the number. Many of them had notes tied to them saying that they had been taken by mistake, and begging the loser not to say anything about the matter.

The agreement aims to replace a hodgepodge of measuring systems with a uniform. standard that will allow parents, students, educators and politicians to compare state graduation rates. Virginia Gov. Mark R. Warner(D) , the outgoing chairman of the National Governors Association, said that with uniform. data on graduation rates and eventually dropout rates, states will have tools to help them track and target efforts to push all students to graduate from high school.
Education experts say a key predictor of whether students eventually will graduate from college is not race or economic circumstances but whether they completed a rigorous course of study in high school. Warner has used his year as NGA chairman to spearhead the initiative to raise awareness of the weaknesses of U. S. high schools and establish higher standards and more difficult curricula.
Governors reiterated Sunday their belief that global competitiveness has left U.S. students in a precarious position, with an economy that demands greater skills but a high school system still designed for the old economy.
What is the main topic of this news?
A.A uniform. standard on graduation rates.
B.A global economy.
C.The reform. of the current high school system.
D.The National Governors Association.

听力原文: I am a keen fisherman. Every Sunday I get up early and with my fishing equipment I cycle to a river about five miles away from my house. I have to walk part of the way because I cannot ride a bicycle through the fields. Recently my wife decided that she did not want to spend every Sunday on her own and asked me to take her with me. As there were two of us, we went by car as far as we could and then walked the rest of the way. When we arrived, we both sat down and I started to fish. In two hours I caught nothing. "Why don't you show me what to do and let me try," asked my wife. "All right," I replied. She caught six big fat fish in half an hour. "I'll take them home and cook them for lunch; you can get the bus home," she said. I stayed by the river but caught only an old shoe. I arrived home feeling a little angry with myself. I'm supposed to be the fisherman in the family.
Anyway the fish was delicious. When the next Sunday arrived, I asked my wife if she wanted to go with me again. "Oh, no, she explained," "I'd rather stay at home. It's so boring catching fish."

"How did you write your advertisement?" asked one of the listeners, a merchant.
"Here it is," said the man, taking out of his pocket a slip cut from a newspaper. The other man took it and read, "Lost from the City Church last Sunday evening, a black silk umbrella. The gentleman who finds it will receive ten shillings on leaving it at No. 10 Broad Street."
"Now," said the merchant, "I often advertise, and find that it pays me well. But the way in which an advertisement is expressed is of great importance. Let us try for your umbrella again, and if it fails, I'll buy you a new one." The merchant then took a slip of paper out of his pocket and wrote: "If the man who was seen to take an umbrella from the City Church last Sunday evening doesn't wish to get into trouble, he will return the umbrella to No. 10 Broad Street. He is well known." This appeared in the paper, and on the following morning, the man was astonished when he opened the front door. In the doorway lay at least twelve umbrellas of all sizes and colors that had been thrown in, and his own was among the number. Many of them had notes, fastened to them saying that they had been taken by mistake, and begging the loser not to say anything about the matter.
