Keep an Eye on CEOs
Government policy decisions could speed or slow the pace of rehabilitation for the banks, and (31) turn, the stock market. David A. Hendler, a New York-based bank analyst at Credit-Sights, says his job has shifted from financial analysis toward Washington analysis. Essentially, his task is to figure (32) how quickly the government will permit weak banks to consolidate. When investors believe (33) know which banks will survive, they'll buy their stocks. The process is (34) critical to the stock market that Richard Bernstein, chief investment strategist at Merrill Lynch, is tracking six signposts for financial industry consolidation. Among them: the extent to which the government carves up and sells bad banks rather than buying into them to prop them (35) Other strategists are keeping a close eye on the people who really know what's happening in the economy: business leaders. Biderman says he'll know corporations are getting confident (36) they start buying back their own shares and acquiring other companies. Right now they show no such bravado. Announcements of share buybacks are down 90% from a year ago, leaving that market thermometer so cold that the mercury is off the scale.
In the end, the timing of the bear's retreat (37) likely hinge on that great market imponderable: psychology. How investors feel has a lot to do with (38) they start seeing mixed signals as proof of a glass half-full. "The market stress causes the analytical part of our brains to shut down, and that makes us hyperreactive (39) bad news, "says Michael A. Ervolini, CEO of Cabot Research, a consultancy catering to institutional investors. People become convinced conditions are worse than rock-bottom bad, he says. Only (40) they see that they've overacted can things improve: "We look for the market to start saying tomorrow will be brighter."

Children today spend more time stare at computer and 【1】______

SECTION A CONVERSATIONS
Directions: In this section you will hear several conversations. Listen to the conversations carefully and then answer the questions that follow.
听力原文:W: Hi, Tom. How's your chemistry paper going?
M: It's coming along. But I've been staring at this computer screen for hours and my eyes hurt.
W: Yeah, doing that can make your eyes feel really dry and tired. You should take a break.
M: I can't. I have to get this paper written. It's due tomorrow.
W: You know, I read about computers and eye problems recently. The article says that they are usually caused by not blinking your eyes enough.
M: Blinking? I thought I just needed new glasses.
W: Nay. When you blink, the movement of closing and opening your eyes, even thought it happens really fast, helps moisten your eyes. It's the lack of moisture that causes the problem.
M: Oh, that makes sense. But what does it have to do with the computer?
W: People who use computers tend to stare at the monitor and blink less often than they normally would. That leads to dry irritated eyes.
M: Well, that certainly helped mine feel now. They really hurt.
W: The article I read about office workers found that the workers averaged 22 blinks a minute when relax, but just 7 a minute while looking at text on a computer screen.
M: Wow, that's quite a difference.
W: They also kept their eyes open wider, which means that moisture evaporated more quickly.
M: I wonder if using some kind of eye drops would make them feel better.
W: That might help. But the best prescription is to take a break and rest your eyes.
M: Ok. Let's go and get some coffee. I can finish this later tonight.
Why is blinking important?
A.It helps the eyes absorb eye drops.
B.It helps to keep the eyes moist.
C.It improves a person's concentration.
D.It prevents a buildup of chemicals in the eyes.
