听力原文： In January 1989, the Community of European Railways presented their proposal for a high speed pan-European train network, extending from Sweden to Sicily, and from Portugal to Poland by the year 2020. If their proposal becomes a reality, it will revolutionize train travel in Europe. Journeys between major cities will take half the time they take today. Brussels will be only one and half hours from Paris. The quickest way to get from Paris to Frankfurt, from Barcelona to Madrid, will be by train, not plane.
When the network is complete, it will integrate three types of railway line: totally new high-speed lines, with trains operating at speeds of 300kms per hour; upgraded lines, which allow for speeds up to 200 to 225kms per hour; and existing tines, for local connections and distribution of freight. If business people can choose between a 3-hour train journey from city center to city center and a 1-hour flight, they'll choose the train, says an executive travel consultant. They won't go by plane anymore. If you calculate flight time, cheek in and travel to and from the airport, you'll find almost no difference, and if your plane arrives late due to bad weather or air traffic jams or strikes, then the train passengers will arrive at their destination first. Since France introduced the first 260-km per hour high speed train service between Paris and Lyons in 1981, the trains have achieved higher and higher speeds. On many routes, airlines have lost up to 90 percent of their passengers to high speed trains. If people accept the community of European Railways' plan, the 21st century will be the new age of the train.
(33)
A．To win over the majority of passengers from airlines in twenty years.
B．To reform. railroad management in western European countries.
C．To electrify the railway lines between major European cities.
D．To set up an express train network throughout Europe.
Nowadays it's my job to know what's happening in the market so every day at work I have financial reports to read. I only get the chance to look at other things - for example business magazines - when I travel abroad.
We invest customers' money in many areas of the market. Traditionally we've invested in property and in manufacturing. However, an industry that is doing very well at the moment is high-tech companies so we plan to increase investment in that area.
Some of our competitors concentrate on achieving a friendly service. This is important but I think that, on the whole, our customers prefer lower charges which is what we guarantee.
Although we encourage our staff to achieve a maximum return on investments, we have strict procedures to make sure that risks are avoided where possible. Some companies may put profits first but it's important that our customers see us as a safe investment.
Next month The Thorpe Group will merge with Chart well Associates which means our company will be relocating to new offices. Most things, however, won't change - for example we won't lose any staff and there are no plans to invest in different areas of the market.
We are a market leader because of our experienced staff. When we take on staff we look for people who will perform. well in a team. Since we train staff in many of the skills they need, a financial background is not essential.

Passage 2
The number of executive branch employees retiring this fiscal year, which ends next month, is on track to be nearly twice the total who retired in 2009, according to government figures. And the rate looks certain to _1_. In 2000, about 94,000 people age 60 and older worked for the government. Last year, the number was 262,000. The wave of retirement is helping to bring down the size of the federal _2_ and—where funding is available—could afford agencies the chance to hire younger workers with _3_ skills. The retirement of clerks could clear the way for experts in cyber security and information technology. But among those leaving are people with specific _4_ that cannot easily be replaced—for instance, nuclear physicists at the Energy Department and a large number of air traffic controllers who were hired three decades ago. And with most hiring on hold, the _5_ are already reshaping agencies that cannot replace most of the retirees or mentor and train new executives. In some corners of government, the challenge is grim. By 2016， _6_. 42 percent of the Department of Housing and Urban Development workforce will be _7_ to retire. At the Small Business Administration, it’s 44 percent. There is no _8_ retirement age for most civilian federal employees, but retiring is looking ever more attractive, employees say, with their salaries frozen for three years by Congress and public service _9_ by many politicians. “It finally got to the point where I got completely _10_ said Richard Swensen, 60, who retired from the Agriculture Department last year after 38 years. “You get weary of work that doesn’t pay off.”

B) payroll
C) mandatory
D) previously
E) crucial
F) departures
G) huddles
H) eligible
I) disappointed
J) criticized

第1空答案是：
A growing number of marketers are using digital technology to push their advertising messages on high-definition video screens in venues where consumers gather.
One pundit has dubbed the growing business of reaching consumers when they're outside of the home as the "outernet". These advertising networks typically blend commercial messages with news, sports, and weather feeds supplied by major media companies. The flurry of out-of-home advertising is spreading to convenience stores, grocery store checkout counters and elevators in office buildings.
The outernet industry is pitching itself to advertisers that are frustrated with the high cost of traditional media and the never-ending search for advertising outlets that work.
"It's a very chaotic advertising market right how, and that chaos tends to work for us," said Charlie Nooney, chief executive of San Francisco-based Premier Retail Networks Inc, which sends advertising into shops operated by Wal-Mart Stores Inc and Best Buy Inc.
Wireless technology can push advertising "anywhere you want, in trains or in cable cars at ski resorts," said Nancy Jackson, a vice president with Westford, Massachusetts-based Captivate Network Inc in the US.
The screen ads account for a tiny sliver of the US＄5.3 billion outdoor advertising industry. But as the cost of digital technology drops, screens that show television-like commercials are expected to make inroads in the category.
The industry operates on a simple principle: Find out where consumers are gathering and put a screen in their faces. Industry players want your free time, whether it's a 20-second elevator ride at work or a two-minute wait to pay for your groceries. Messages are tailored to fit into the available window; some of the advertising pitches run 10 seconds or less.
"If you are standing in line waiting for a Big Mac and fries, you've got nothing else to do," said Tracy Crocker, president of Next Generation Network, which is installing advertising screens in 7-Elevens. "And you're going to remember those commercials more than the ones you see sitting around at home watching your favourite TV show because there are no distractions."
Although the sector often is lumped in with billboards and other out-of-home advertising options, industry players say their screens are a close cousin of cable television because the systems promise to deliver specific demographics rather than the broad audience a well-placed billboard attracts.
Captivate Network, for example, focuses on elevators and lobbies of high-rise office buildings that are home to high income executives.
Technology advances that continue to cut the costs of installing screens and transmit ting content and advertising are at the core of the new advertising medium. Captivate Network uses wireless local-area networks in elevator shafts to send content and advertising onto flat-panel screens mounted in elevators. In the late 1990s, the system required complicated wiring for each car, an expensive and time-consuming process.
The new technologies remove barriers that have kept advertisers from reaching, say, commuter train passengers, said Captivate Network executive Jackson.
Initial market research suggests that consumers are more apt to see the electronic displays than traditional, static advertising. Premier Retail Networks last year unveiled a Nielsen Media Research study suggesting that customer recall for outernet advertising shown on screens inside Wal-Mart locations surpasses rate for similar advertising shown on television.
Which of the following about the outer net is NOT true？
A．It refers to such outdoor advertising as elevator advertising and billboards.
B．It is now less expensive and time-consuming than the traditional media.
C．It benefits a lot from technology advances.
D．It will become more and more popular as an advertising outlet.
