People of a city are often proud (自豪的) of living in it. People of Manchester believes that there is no better city than Manchester; people of Liverpool feel the same way about Liverpool. Outsiders and passing travelers may be interested in what the difference is between one city and another. Maybe they remember Newcastle because of its bridge over the River Tyne, or Liverpool because of its docks (码头). There is one difference which most people can hear; that is the different ways of speaking and also some words which are used only in one place.

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 early 1960s a new sound was heard, very different from anything, which had so far come from the American side of the Atlantic. This was the Liverpool, or northwestern "beat". Situated on the river Mersey in the northeastern comer of the industrial Blank Country, Liverpool was not a place that anyone visited for fun. Until the 1960s it was known only as one of Britain's largest ports. Then, overnight, it became world famous as the birth place of the new pop culture which, in a few years, swept across Britain and America, and most countries of the Western world.
The people responsible for the pop revolution were four Liverpool boys who called themselves The Beatles. They played in small clubs in the back streets of the city. Unlike the famous solo stars who had their songs written for them, The Beatles wrote their own words and music.
Some pop groups, in particular the Rolling Stones, did more than just entertain. They wrote words that were deliberately intended to shock. They represented the anger and bitterness of youth struggling for freedom against authority.
The Beatles finally won the affection and admiration of people of all ages and social backgrounds. Their songs became more serious. They wrote not only of love, but also of death and old age and poverty and daily life. They were respected by many intellectuals and by some serious musicians, largely thanks to The Beatles, pop music has grown into an immense and profitable industry.
Which of the following is NOT true about Liverpool？
A．It is located on the river Mersey.
B．It is the birthplace of lots of musicians and intellectuals.
C．It is one of Britain's largest ports.
D．It is the birthplace of the new pop culture.

The 16-year-old works for a small firm in Liverpool, where the problem of most young people of his age is finding a job. David's firm releases two new games for the expanding home computer market each month.
But David's biggest headache is what to do with his money. Despite his salary, earned by inventing new programs within fight schedules, with bonus payments and profit-sharing, he cannot drive a car, take out a mortgage, or obtain credit cards.
He lives with his parents in their council house in Liverpool, where his father is a bus driver. His company has to pay ￡150 a month in taxi fares to get him the five miles to work and back every day because David cannot drive.
David got his job with the Liverpool-based company four months ago, a year after leaving school with six O-levels and working for a time in a computer shop. "I got the job because the people who run the firm knew I had already written some programs," he said. "I suppose ￡35,000 sounds a lot but actually that's being pessimistic. I hope it will come to more than that this year." He spends some of his money on records and clothes, and gives his mother ￡20 a week. But most of his spare time is spent working.
"Unfortunately, computing was not part of our studies at school," he said. "But I had been studying it in books and magazines for four years in my spare time. I knew what I wanted to do and never considered staying on at school. Most people in this business are fairly young, anyway." David added, "I would like to earn a million and I suppose early retirement is a possibility. You never know when the market might disappear."
Why is David different from other young people of his age？
A．He earns an extremely high salary.
B．He is employed.
C．He does not go out much.
D．He lives at home with his parents.
George Harrison was an unlikely rock star, an unassuming man, cynical about celebrity, concentrating on what mattered, the music. He'd been a heavy smoker for many years. Three years ago, he disclosed that he had cancer. He'd gone to Los Angeles for a final attempt at treatment. He died at a friend's house yesterday afternoon. In a statement, his family said, he left this world as he lived in it, conscious of God, fearless of death, and at peace.
(34)In Liverpool, the city that was the Beatles' and which they made famous, some people laid flowers for George Harrison at a statue of the Beatles. Others signed a book of condolence.
Bob Geldof said sorrowfully: I think almost uniquely possibly in music and certainly in guitar, are a guitarist's paces. (35)A11 his solos or his little licks can be hummed by practically everyone in the world. I don't think there is another guitar player can claim that.
Some months ago, just before his final illness, George Harrison undertook his last project. It was the reworking of a 1970 album entitled, "All Things Must Pass."
(30)
A．His international fame.
B．His leading status in the film industry.
C．His music style.
D．His personality.
听力原文：W: Johnny, what's your impression on English people？
M: Well, they are the most reserved, the most suspicious, the most unreceptive, the most unfriendly, the coldest-hearted, and the most domineering of all western peoples.
W: Why？ It seems that you have great prejudice against the English people.
M: Not necessarily. This is the judgment by all other European people. Ask a Frenchman, an Italian, a German like me, or even an American, what he thinks about Englishmen, and every one will tell you the very same thing.
W: Don't you have any compliment for the English people？
M: Oh, yes. You would find that nearly all nations would speak highly of certain other English qualities—energy, courage, honor and justice. Although no man is so difficult to make friends with, the friendship of an Englishman once gained is more strong and true than any other. What do you think of them anyway？
W: I don't know much about English people. But last semester, we had a teacher, Mr. McCourt, teaching us writing, he is from Liverpool, he is rather silent, reserved, and not amiable. Some of us were really afraid of him. But he was a great teacher, and he taught us many writing techniques. I have made much progress.
M: Then he is a typical English man.
W: That's right. He often told us that kindness is an emotional impulse, and we should on our guard against every kind of emotional impulse.
M: But with all this, the character is a grand one, and its success has been the best proof of its value.
(23)
A．Receptive.
B．Friendly.
C．Impulsive.
D．Brave.
